24 ### Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0 alpha 5 [16 Jul 2020]
25
26 * Deprecated the `ENGINE` API. Engines should be replaced with providers
27 going forward.
28
29 *Paul Dale*
30
31 * Reworked the recorded ERR codes to make better space for system errors.
32 To distinguish them, the macro `ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR()` indicates if the
33 given code is a system error (true) or an OpenSSL error (false).
34
35 *Richard Levitte*
36
37 * Reworked the test perl framework to better allow parallel testing.
38
39 *Nicola Tuveri and David von Oheimb*
40
41 * Added ciphertext stealing algorithms AES-128-CBC-CTS, AES-192-CBC-CTS and
42 AES-256-CBC-CTS to the providers. CS1, CS2 and CS3 variants are supported.
43
44 *Shane Lontis*
45
46 * 'Configure' has been changed to figure out the configuration target if
47 none is given on the command line. Consequently, the 'config' script is
48 now only a mere wrapper. All documentation is changed to only mention
49 'Configure'.
50
51 *Rich Salz and Richard Levitte*
52
53 * Added a library context that applications as well as other
54 libraries can use to form a separate context within which libcrypto
55 operations are performed.
56
57 There are two ways this can be used:
58
59 - Directly, by passing a library context to functions that take
60 such an argument, such as `EVP_CIPHER_fetch` and similar algorithm
61 fetching functions.
62 - Indirectly, by creating a new library context and then assigning
63 it as the new default, with `OPENSSL_CTX_set0_default`.
64
65 All public OpenSSL functions that take an `OPENSSL_CTX` pointer,
66 apart from the functions directly related to `OPENSSL_CTX`, accept
67 NULL to indicate that the default library context should be used.
68
69 Library code that changes the default library context using
70 `OPENSSL_CTX_set0_default` should take care to restore it with a
71 second call before returning to the caller.
72
73 *Richard Levitte*
74
75 * Handshake now fails if Extended Master Secret extension is dropped
76 on renegotiation.
77
78 *Tomas Mraz*
79
80 * Dropped interactive mode from the 'openssl' program. From now on,
81 the `openssl` command without arguments is equivalent to `openssl
82 help`.
83
84 *Richard Levitte*
85
86 * Renamed EVP_PKEY_cmp() to EVP_PKEY_eq() and
87 EVP_PKEY_cmp_parameters() to EVP_PKEY_parameters_eq().
88 While the old function names have been retained for backward compatibility
89 they should not be used in new developments
90 because their return values are confusing: Unlike other `_cmp()` functions
91 they do not return 0 in case their arguments are equal.
92
93 *David von Oheimb*
94
95 * Deprecated EC_METHOD_get_field_type(). Applications should switch to
96 EC_GROUP_get_field_type().
97
98 *Billy Bob Brumley*
99
100 * Deprecated EC_GFp_simple_method(), EC_GFp_mont_method(),
101 EC_GF2m_simple_method(), EC_GFp_nist_method(), EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
102 EC_GFp_nistp256_method(), and EC_GFp_nistp521_method().
103 Applications should rely on the library automatically assigning a suitable
104 EC_METHOD internally upon EC_GROUP construction.
105
106 *Billy Bob Brumley*
107
108 * Deprecated EC_GROUP_new(), EC_GROUP_method_of(), and EC_POINT_method_of().
109 EC_METHOD is now an internal-only concept and a suitable EC_METHOD is
110 assigned internally without application intervention.
111 Users of EC_GROUP_new() should switch to a different suitable constructor.
112
113 *Billy Bob Brumley*
114
115 * Add CAdES-BES signature verification support, mostly derived
116 from ESSCertIDv2 TS (RFC 5816) contribution by Marek Klein.
117
118 *Filipe Raimundo da Silva*
119
120 * Add CAdES-BES signature scheme and attributes support (RFC 5126) to CMS API.
121
122 *Antonio Iacono*
123
124 * Deprecated EC_POINT_make_affine() and EC_POINTs_make_affine(). These
125 functions are not widely used and now OpenSSL automatically perform this
126 conversion when needed.
127
128 *Billy Bob Brumley*
129
130 * Deprecated EC_GROUP_precompute_mult(), EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult(), and
131 EC_KEY_precompute_mult(). These functions are not widely used and
132 applications should instead switch to named curves which OpenSSL has
133 hardcoded lookup tables for.
134
135 *Billy Bob Brumley*
136
137 * Deprecated EC_POINTs_mul(). This function is not widely used and applications
138 should instead use the L<EC_POINT_mul(3)> function.
139
140 *Billy Bob Brumley*
141
142 * Removed FIPS_mode() and FIPS_mode_set(). These functions are legacy API's
143 that are not applicable to the new provider model. Applications should
144 instead use EVP_default_properties_is_fips_enabled() and
145 EVP_default_properties_enable_fips().
146
147 *Shane Lontis*
148
149 * The SSL option SSL_OP_IGNORE_UNEXPECTED_EOF is introduced. If that option
150 is set, an unexpected EOF is ignored, it pretends a close notify was received
151 instead and so the returned error becomes SSL_ERROR_ZERO_RETURN.
152
153 *Dmitry Belyavskiy*
154
155 * Deprecated EC_POINT_set_Jprojective_coordinates_GFp() and
156 EC_POINT_get_Jprojective_coordinates_GFp(). These functions are not widely
157 used and applications should instead use the
158 L<EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates(3)> and
159 L<EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates(3)> functions.
160
161 *Billy Bob Brumley*
162
163 * Added OSSL_PARAM_BLD to the public interface. This allows OSSL_PARAM
164 arrays to be more easily constructed via a series of utility functions.
165 Create a parameter builder using OSSL_PARAM_BLD_new(), add parameters using
166 the various push functions and finally convert to a passable OSSL_PARAM
167 array using OSSL_PARAM_BLD_to_param().
168
169 *Paul Dale*
170
171 * The security strength of SHA1 and MD5 based signatures in TLS has been
172 reduced. This results in SSL 3, TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0 no longer
173 working at the default security level of 1 and instead requires security
174 level 0. The security level can be changed either using the cipher string
175 with @SECLEVEL, or calling SSL_CTX_set_security_level().
176
177 *Kurt Roeckx*
178
179 * EVP_PKEY_get0_RSA(), EVP_PKEY_get0_DSA(), EVP_PKEY_get0_DH(), and
180 EVP_PKEY_get0_EC_KEY() can now handle EVP_PKEYs with provider side
181 internal keys, if they correspond to one of those built in types.
182
183 *Richard Levitte*
184
185 * Added EVP_PKEY_set_type_by_keymgmt(), to initialise an EVP_PKEY to
186 contain a provider side internal key.
187
188 *Richard Levitte*
189
190 * ASN1_verify(), ASN1_digest() and ASN1_sign() have been deprecated.
191 They are old functions that we don't use, and that you could disable with
192 the macro NO_ASN1_OLD. This goes all the way back to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
193
194 *Richard Levitte*
195
196 * Project text documents not yet having a proper file name extension
197 (`HACKING`, `LICENSE`, `NOTES*`, `README*`, `VERSION`) have been renamed to
198 `*.md` as far as reasonable, else `*.txt`, for better use with file managers.
199
200 *David von Oheimb*
201
202 * The main project documents (README, NEWS, CHANGES, INSTALL, SUPPORT)
203 have been converted to Markdown with the goal to produce documents
204 which not only look pretty when viewed online in the browser, but
205 remain well readable inside a plain text editor.
206
207 To achieve this goal, a 'minimalistic' Markdown style has been applied
208 which avoids formatting elements that interfere too much with the
209 reading flow in the text file. For example, it
210
211 * avoids [ATX headings][] and uses [setext headings][] instead
212 (which works for `<h1>` and `<h2>` headings only).
213 * avoids [inline links][] and uses [reference links][] instead.
214 * avoids [fenced code blocks][] and uses [indented code blocks][] instead.
215
216 [ATX headings]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#atx-headings
217 [setext headings]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#setext-headings
218 [inline links]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#inline-link
219 [reference links]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#reference-link
220 [fenced code blocks]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#fenced-code-blocks
221 [indented code blocks]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#indented-code-blocks
222
223 *Matthias St. Pierre*
224
225 * The test suite is changed to preserve results of each test recipe.
226 A new directory test-runs/ with subdirectories named like the
227 test recipes are created in the build tree for this purpose.
228
229 *Richard Levitte*
230
231 * Added an implementation of CMP and CRMF (RFC 4210, RFC 4211 RFC 6712).
232 This adds crypto/cmp/, crpyto/crmf/, apps/cmp.c, and test/cmp_*.
233 See L<openssl-cmp(1)> and L<OSSL_CMP_exec_IR_ses(3)> as starting points.
234
235 *David von Oheimb, Martin Peylo*
236
237 * Generalized the HTTP client code from crypto/ocsp/ into crpyto/http/.
238 The legacy OCSP-focused and only partly documented API is retained.
239 See L<OSSL_CMP_MSG_http_perform(3)> etc. for details.
240
241 *David von Oheimb*
242
243 * BIO_do_connect and BIO_do_handshake have been extended:
244 If domain name resolution yields multiple IP addresses all of them are tried
245 after connect() failures.
246
247 *David von Oheimb*
248
249 * All of the low level RSA functions have been deprecated including:
250
251 RSA_new_method, RSA_size, RSA_security_bits, RSA_get0_pss_params,
252 RSA_get_version, RSA_get0_engine, RSA_generate_key_ex,
253 RSA_generate_multi_prime_key, RSA_X931_derive_ex, RSA_X931_generate_key_ex,
254 RSA_check_key, RSA_check_key_ex, RSA_public_encrypt, RSA_private_encrypt,
255 RSA_public_decrypt, RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_set_default_method,
256 RSA_get_default_method, RSA_null_method, RSA_get_method, RSA_set_method,
257 RSA_PKCS1_OpenSSL, RSA_print_fp, RSA_print, RSA_sign, RSA_verify,
258 RSA_sign_ASN1_OCTET_STRING, RSA_verify_ASN1_OCTET_STRING, RSA_blinding_on,
259 RSA_blinding_off, RSA_setup_blinding, RSA_padding_add_PKCS1_type_1,
260 RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1, RSA_padding_add_PKCS1_type_2,
261 RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_2, PKCS1_MGF1, RSA_padding_add_PKCS1_OAEP,
262 RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP, RSA_padding_add_PKCS1_OAEP_mgf1,
263 RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP_mgf1, RSA_padding_add_SSLv23,
264 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23, RSA_padding_add_none, RSA_padding_check_none,
265 RSA_padding_add_X931, RSA_padding_check_X931, RSA_X931_hash_id,
266 RSA_verify_PKCS1_PSS, RSA_padding_add_PKCS1_PSS, RSA_verify_PKCS1_PSS_mgf1,
267 RSA_padding_add_PKCS1_PSS_mgf1, RSA_set_ex_data, RSA_get_ex_data,
268 RSA_meth_new, RSA_meth_free, RSA_meth_dup, RSA_meth_get0_name,
269 RSA_meth_set1_name, RSA_meth_get_flags, RSA_meth_set_flags,
270 RSA_meth_get0_app_data, RSA_meth_set0_app_data, RSA_meth_get_pub_enc,
271 RSA_meth_set_pub_enc, RSA_meth_get_pub_dec, RSA_meth_set_pub_dec,
272 RSA_meth_get_priv_enc, RSA_meth_set_priv_enc, RSA_meth_get_priv_dec,
273 RSA_meth_set_priv_dec, RSA_meth_get_mod_exp, RSA_meth_set_mod_exp,
274 RSA_meth_get_bn_mod_exp, RSA_meth_set_bn_mod_exp, RSA_meth_get_init,
275 RSA_meth_set_init, RSA_meth_get_finish, RSA_meth_set_finish,
276 RSA_meth_get_sign, RSA_meth_set_sign, RSA_meth_get_verify,
277 RSA_meth_set_verify, RSA_meth_get_keygen, RSA_meth_set_keygen,
278 RSA_meth_get_multi_prime_keygen and RSA_meth_set_multi_prime_keygen.
279
280 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
281 time. Instead applications should use L<EVP_PKEY_encrypt_init(3)>,
282 L<EVP_PKEY_encrypt(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init(3)> and
283 L<EVP_PKEY_decrypt(3)>.
284
285 *Paul Dale*
286
287 * X509 certificates signed using SHA1 are no longer allowed at security
288 level 1 and above.
289 In TLS/SSL the default security level is 1. It can be set either
290 using the cipher string with @SECLEVEL, or calling
291 SSL_CTX_set_security_level(). If the leaf certificate is signed with SHA-1,
292 a call to SSL_CTX_use_certificate() will fail if the security level is not
293 lowered first.
294 Outside TLS/SSL, the default security level is -1 (effectively 0). It can
295 be set using X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_auth_level() or using the -auth_level
296 options of the apps.
297
298 *Kurt Roeckx*
299
300 * The command line utilities dhparam, dsa, gendsa and dsaparam have been
301 modified to use PKEY APIs. These commands are now in maintenance mode
302 and no new features will be added to them.
303
304 *Paul Dale*
305
306 * The command line utility rsautl has been deprecated.
307 Instead use the pkeyutl program.
308
309 *Paul Dale*
310
311 * The command line utilities genrsa and rsa have been modified to use PKEY
312 APIs These commands are now in maintenance mode and no new features will
313 be added to them.
314
315 *Paul Dale*
316
317 * All of the low level DH functions have been deprecated including:
318
319 DH_OpenSSL, DH_set_default_method, DH_get_default_method, DH_set_method,
320 DH_new_method, DH_size, DH_security_bits, DH_get_ex_new_index,
321 DH_set_ex_data, DH_get_ex_data, DH_generate_parameters_ex,
322 DH_check_params_ex, DH_check_ex, DH_check_pub_key_ex,
323 DH_check, DH_check_pub_key, DH_generate_key, DH_compute_key,
324 DH_compute_key_padded, DHparams_print_fp, DHparams_print, DH_get_nid,
325 DH_KDF_X9_42, DH_get0_engine, DH_meth_new, DH_meth_free, DH_meth_dup,
326 DH_meth_get0_name, DH_meth_set1_name, DH_meth_get_flags, DH_meth_set_flags,
327 DH_meth_get0_app_data, DH_meth_set0_app_data, DH_meth_get_generate_key,
328 DH_meth_set_generate_key, DH_meth_get_compute_key, DH_meth_set_compute_key,
329 DH_meth_get_bn_mod_exp, DH_meth_set_bn_mod_exp, DH_meth_get_init,
330 DH_meth_set_init, DH_meth_get_finish, DH_meth_set_finish,
331 DH_meth_get_generate_params and DH_meth_set_generate_params.
332
333 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
334 time. Instead applications should use L<EVP_PKEY_derive_init(3)>
335 and L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)>.
336
337 *Paul Dale*
338
339 * All of the low level DSA functions have been deprecated including:
340
341 DSA_do_sign, DSA_do_verify, DSA_OpenSSL, DSA_set_default_method,
342 DSA_get_default_method, DSA_set_method, DSA_get_method,
343 DSA_new_method, DSA_size, DSA_security_bits, DSA_sign_setup, DSA_sign,
344 DSA_verify, DSA_get_ex_new_index, DSA_set_ex_data, DSA_get_ex_data,
345 DSA_generate_parameters_ex, DSA_generate_key, DSA_meth_new, DSA_get0_engine,
346 DSA_meth_free, DSA_meth_dup, DSA_meth_get0_name, DSA_meth_set1_name,
347 DSA_meth_get_flags, DSA_meth_set_flags, DSA_meth_get0_app_data,
348 DSA_meth_set0_app_data, DSA_meth_get_sign, DSA_meth_set_sign,
349 DSA_meth_get_sign_setup, DSA_meth_set_sign_setup, DSA_meth_get_verify,
350 DSA_meth_set_verify, DSA_meth_get_mod_exp, DSA_meth_set_mod_exp,
351 DSA_meth_get_bn_mod_exp, DSA_meth_set_bn_mod_exp, DSA_meth_get_init,
352 DSA_meth_set_init, DSA_meth_get_finish, DSA_meth_set_finish,
353 DSA_meth_get_paramgen, DSA_meth_set_paramgen, DSA_meth_get_keygen and
354 DSA_meth_set_keygen.
355
356 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
357 time. Instead applications should use L<EVP_DigestSignInit_ex(3)>,
358 L<EVP_DigestSignUpdate(3)> and L<EVP_DigestSignFinal(3)>.
359
360 *Paul Dale*
361
362 * Reworked the treatment of EC EVP_PKEYs with the SM2 curve to
363 automatically become EVP_PKEY_SM2 rather than EVP_PKEY_EC.
364 This means that applications don't have to look at the curve NID and
365 `EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type(pkey, EVP_PKEY_SM2)` to get SM2 computations.
366 However, they still can, that EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type() call acts as
367 a no-op when the EVP_PKEY is already of the given type.
368
369 Parameter and key generation is also reworked to make it possible
370 to generate EVP_PKEY_SM2 parameters and keys without having to go
371 through EVP_PKEY_EC generation and then change the EVP_PKEY type.
372 However, code that does the latter will still work as before.
373
374 *Richard Levitte*
375
376 * Deprecated low level ECDH and ECDSA functions. These include:
377
378 ECDH_compute_key, ECDSA_do_sign, ECDSA_do_sign_ex, ECDSA_do_verify,
379 ECDSA_sign_setup, ECDSA_sign, ECDSA_sign_ex, ECDSA_verify and
380 ECDSA_size.
381
382 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
383 time. Instead applications should use the EVP_PKEY_derive(3),
384 EVP_DigestSign(3) and EVP_DigestVerify(3) functions.
385
386 *Paul Dale*
387
388 * Deprecated the EC_KEY_METHOD functions. These include:
389
390 EC_KEY_METHOD_new, EC_KEY_METHOD_free, EC_KEY_METHOD_set_init,
391 EC_KEY_METHOD_set_keygen, EC_KEY_METHOD_set_compute_key,
392 EC_KEY_METHOD_set_sign, EC_KEY_METHOD_set_verify,
393 EC_KEY_METHOD_get_init, EC_KEY_METHOD_get_keygen,
394 EC_KEY_METHOD_get_compute_key, EC_KEY_METHOD_get_sign and
395 EC_KEY_METHOD_get_verify.
396
397 Instead applications and extension writers should use the OSSL_PROVIDER APIs.
398
399 *Paul Dale*
400
401 * Deprecated EVP_PKEY_decrypt_old(), please use EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init()
402 and EVP_PKEY_decrypt() instead.
403 Deprecated EVP_PKEY_encrypt_old(), please use EVP_PKEY_encrypt_init()
404 and EVP_PKEY_encrypt() instead.
405
406 *Richard Levitte*
407
408 * Enhanced the documentation of EVP_PKEY_size(), EVP_PKEY_bits()
409 and EVP_PKEY_security_bits(). Especially EVP_PKEY_size() needed
410 a new formulation to include all the things it can be used for,
411 as well as words of caution.
412
413 *Richard Levitte*
414
415 * The SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_cb(3) function has been deprecated.
416 Instead used the new SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_evp_cb(3) function.
417
418 *Paul Dale*
419
420 * All of the low level HMAC functions have been deprecated including:
421
422 HMAC, HMAC_size, HMAC_CTX_new, HMAC_CTX_reset, HMAC_CTX_free,
423 HMAC_Init_ex, HMAC_Update, HMAC_Final, HMAC_CTX_copy, HMAC_CTX_set_flags
424 and HMAC_CTX_get_md.
425
426 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
427 time. Instead applications should use L<EVP_MAC_CTX_new(3)>,
428 L<EVP_MAC_CTX_free(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_init(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_update(3)>
429 and L<EVP_MAC_final(3)>.
430
431 *Paul Dale*
432
433 * Over two thousand fixes were made to the documentation, including:
434 - Common options (such as -rand/-writerand, TLS version control, etc)
435 were refactored and point to newly-enhanced descriptions in openssl.pod.
436 - Added style conformance for all options (with help from Richard Levitte),
437 documented all reported missing options, added a CI build to check
438 that all options are documented and that no unimplemented options
439 are documented.
440 - Documented some internals, such as all use of environment variables.
441 - Addressed all internal broken L<> references.
442
443 *Rich Salz*
444
445 * All of the low level CMAC functions have been deprecated including:
446
447 CMAC_CTX_new, CMAC_CTX_cleanup, CMAC_CTX_free, CMAC_CTX_get0_cipher_ctx,
448 CMAC_CTX_copy, CMAC_Init, CMAC_Update, CMAC_Final and CMAC_resume.
449
450 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
451 time. Instead applications should use L<EVP_MAC_CTX_new(3)>,
452 L<EVP_MAC_CTX_free(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_init(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_update(3)>
453 and L<EVP_MAC_final(3)>.
454
455 *Paul Dale*
456
457 * All of the low level MD2, MD4, MD5, MDC2, RIPEMD160, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256,
458 SHA384, SHA512 and Whirlpool digest functions have been deprecated.
459 These include:

471
472 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged
473 for a long time. Applications should use the EVP_DigestInit_ex(3),
474 EVP_DigestUpdate(3) and EVP_DigestFinal_ex(3) functions instead.
475
476 *Paul Dale*
477
478 * Corrected the documentation of the return values from the `EVP_DigestSign*`
479 set of functions. The documentation mentioned negative values for some
480 errors, but this was never the case, so the mention of negative values
481 was removed.
482
483 Code that followed the documentation and thereby check with something
484 like `EVP_DigestSignInit(...) <= 0` will continue to work undisturbed.
485
486 *Richard Levitte*

518 SEED_cbc_encrypt, SEED_cfb128_encrypt and SEED_ofb128_encrypt.
519
520 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for
521 a long time. Applications should use the high level EVP APIs, e.g.
522 EVP_EncryptInit_ex, EVP_EncryptUpdate, EVP_EncryptFinal_ex, and the
523 equivalently named decrypt functions instead.
524
525 *Matt Caswell and Paul Dale*
526
527 * Removed include/openssl/opensslconf.h.in and replaced it with
528 include/openssl/configuration.h.in, which differs in not including
529 <openssl/macros.h>. A short header include/openssl/opensslconf.h
530 was added to include both.
531
532 This allows internal hacks where one might need to modify the set
533 of configured macros, for example this if deprecated symbols are
534 still supposed to be available internally:
535
536 #include <openssl/configuration.h>
537
538 #undef OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED
539 #define OPENSSL_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATED
540
541 #include <openssl/macros.h>
542
543 This should not be used by applications that use the exported
544 symbols, as that will lead to linking errors.
545
546 *Richard Levitte*
547
548 * Fixed an overflow bug in the x64_64 Montgomery squaring procedure
549 used in exponentiation with 512-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are
550 affected. Analysis suggests that attacks against 2-prime RSA1024,
551 3-prime RSA1536, and DSA1024 as a result of this defect would be very
552 difficult to perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH512
553 are considered just feasible. However, for an attack the target would
554 have to re-use the DH512 private key, which is not recommended anyway.
555 Also applications directly using the low level API BN_mod_exp may be
556 affected if they use BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
557 [CVE-2019-1551][]
558
559 *Andy Polyakov*
560
561 * Most memory-debug features have been deprecated, and the functionality
562 replaced with no-ops.
563
564 *Rich Salz*
565
566 * Added documentation for the STACK API. OpenSSL only defines the STACK
567 functions where they are used.
568
569 *Rich Salz*
570
571 * Introduced a new method type and API, OSSL_SERIALIZER, to
572 represent generic serializers. An implementation is expected to
573 be able to serialize an object associated with a given name (such
574 as an algorithm name for an asymmetric key) into forms given by
575 implementation properties.
576
577 Serializers are primarily used from inside libcrypto, through
578 calls to functions like EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
579 PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() and similar.
580
581 Serializers are specified in such a way that they can be made to
582 directly handle the provider side portion of an object, if this
583 provider side part comes from the same provider as the serializer
584 itself, but can also be made to handle objects in parametrized
585 form (as an OSSL_PARAM array of data). This allows a provider to
586 offer generic serializers as a service for any other provider.
587
588 *Richard Levitte*
589
590 * Added a .pragma directive to the syntax of configuration files, to
591 allow varying behavior in a supported and predictable manner.
592 Currently added pragma:
593
594 .pragma dollarid:on
595
596 This allows dollar signs to be a keyword character unless it's
597 followed by a opening brace or parenthesis. This is useful for
598 platforms where dollar signs are commonly used in names, such as
599 volume names and system directory names on VMS.
600
601 *Richard Levitte*
602
603 * Added functionality to create an EVP_PKEY from user data. This
604 is effectively the same as creating a RSA, DH or DSA object and
605 then assigning them to an EVP_PKEY, but directly using algorithm
606 agnostic EVP functions. A benefit is that this should be future
607 proof for public key algorithms to come.
608
609 *Richard Levitte*
610
611 * Change the interpretation of the '--api' configuration option to
612 mean that this is a desired API compatibility level with no
613 further meaning. The previous interpretation, that this would
614 also mean to remove all deprecated symbols up to and including
615 the given version, no requires that 'no-deprecated' is also used
616 in the configuration.
617
618 When building applications, the desired API compatibility level
619 can be set with the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT macro like before. For
620 API compatibility version below 3.0, the old style numerical
621 value is valid as before, such as -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L.
622 For version 3.0 and on, the value is expected to be the decimal
623 value calculated from the major and minor version like this:
624
625 MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100
626
627 Examples:
628
629 -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=30000 For 3.0
630 -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=30200 For 3.2
631
632 To hide declarations that are deprecated up to and including the
633 given API compatibility level, -DOPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED must be
634 given when building the application as well.
635
636 *Richard Levitte*
637
638 * Added the X509_LOOKUP_METHOD called X509_LOOKUP_store, to allow
639 access to certificate and CRL stores via URIs and OSSL_STORE
640 loaders.
641
642 This adds the following functions:
643
644 - X509_LOOKUP_store()
645 - X509_STORE_load_file()
646 - X509_STORE_load_path()
647 - X509_STORE_load_store()
648 - SSL_add_store_cert_subjects_to_stack()
649 - SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_store()
650 - SSL_CTX_load_verify_file()
651 - SSL_CTX_load_verify_dir()
652 - SSL_CTX_load_verify_store()
653
654 *Richard Levitte*
655
656 * Added a new method to gather entropy on VMS, based on SYS$GET_ENTROPY.
657 The presence of this system service is determined at run-time.
658
659 *Richard Levitte*
660
661 * Added functionality to create an EVP_PKEY context based on data
662 for methods from providers. This takes an algorithm name and a
663 property query string and simply stores them, with the intent
664 that any operation that uses this context will use those strings
665 to fetch the needed methods implicitly, thereby making the port
666 of application written for pre-3.0 OpenSSL easier.
667
668 *Richard Levitte*
669
670 * The undocumented function NCONF_WIN32() has been deprecated; for
671 conversion details see the HISTORY section of doc/man5/config.pod
672
673 *Rich Salz*
674
675 * Introduced the new functions EVP_DigestSignInit_ex() and
676 EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex(). The macros EVP_DigestSignUpdate() and
677 EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate() have been converted to functions. See the man
678 pages for further details.
679
680 *Matt Caswell*
681
682 * Over two thousand fixes were made to the documentation, including:
683 adding missing command flags, better style conformance, documentation
684 of internals, etc.
685
686 *Rich Salz, Richard Levitte*
687
688 * s390x assembly pack: add hardware-support for P-256, P-384, P-521,
689 X25519, X448, Ed25519 and Ed448.
690
691 *Patrick Steuer*
692
693 * Print all values for a PKCS#12 attribute with 'openssl pkcs12', not just
694 the first value.
695
696 *Jon Spillett*
697
698 * Deprecated the public definition of ERR_STATE as well as the function
699 ERR_get_state(). This is done in preparation of making ERR_STATE an
700 opaque type.
701
702 *Richard Levitte*
703
704 * Added ERR functionality to give callers access to the stored function
705 names that have replaced the older function code based functions.
706
707 New functions are ERR_get_error_func(), ERR_peek_error_func(),
708 ERR_peek_last_error_func(), ERR_get_error_data(), ERR_peek_error_data(),
709 ERR_peek_last_error_data(), ERR_get_error_all(), ERR_peek_error_all()
710 and ERR_peek_last_error_all().
711
712 These functions have become deprecated: ERR_get_error_line_data(),
713 ERR_peek_error_line_data(), ERR_peek_last_error_line_data() and
714 ERR_func_error_string().
715
716 *Richard Levitte*
717
718 * Extended testing to be verbose for failing tests only. The make variables
719 VERBOSE_FAILURE or VF can be used to enable this:
720
721 $ make VF=1 test # Unix
722 $ mms /macro=(VF=1) test ! OpenVMS
723 $ nmake VF=1 test # Windows
724
725 *Richard Levitte*
726
727 * For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
728 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a serialized key
729 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
730 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
731 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
732 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
733 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
734 serialized, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
735 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
736
737 *Nicola Tuveri*
738
739 * Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
740 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
741 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
742 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
743 [CVE-2019-1547][]
744
745 *Billy Bob Brumley*
746
747 * Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
748 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
749 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
750 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
751 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
752 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
753 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
754 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
755 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
756 certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
757 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
758 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
759
760 *Bernd Edlinger*
761
762 * Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been
763 improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for
764 /dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom.
765 The seeded state is stored for future library initialisations using
766 a system global shared memory segment. The shared memory identifier
767 can be configured by defining OPENSSL_RAND_SEED_DEVRANDOM_SHM_ID to
768 the desired value. The default identifier is 114.
769
770 *Paul Dale*
771
772 * Revised BN_generate_prime_ex to not avoid factors 2..17863 in p-1
773 when primes for RSA keys are computed.
774 Since we previously always generated primes == 2 (mod 3) for RSA keys,
775 the 2-prime and 3-prime RSA modules were easy to distinguish, since
776 `N = p*q = 1 (mod 3)`, but `N = p*q*r = 2 (mod 3)`. Therefore fingerprinting
777 2-prime vs. 3-prime RSA keys was possible by computing N mod 3.
778 This avoids possible fingerprinting of newly generated RSA modules.
779
780 *Bernd Edlinger*
781
782 * Correct the extended master secret constant on EBCDIC systems. Without this
783 fix TLS connections between an EBCDIC system and a non-EBCDIC system that
784 negotiate EMS will fail. Unfortunately this also means that TLS connections
785 between EBCDIC systems with this fix, and EBCDIC systems without this
786 fix will fail if they negotiate EMS.
787
788 *Matt Caswell*
789
790 * Changed the library initialisation so that the config file is now loaded
791 by default. This was already the case for libssl. It now occurs for both
792 libcrypto and libssl. Use the OPENSSL_INIT_NO_LOAD_CONFIG option to
793 OPENSSL_init_crypto() to suppress automatic loading of a config file.
794
795 *Matt Caswell*
796
797 * Introduced new error raising macros, ERR_raise() and ERR_raise_data(),
798 where the former acts as a replacement for ERR_put_error(), and the
799 latter replaces the combination ERR_put_error()+ERR_add_error_data().
800 ERR_raise_data() adds more flexibility by taking a format string and
801 an arbitrary number of arguments following it, to be processed with
802 BIO_snprintf().
803
804 *Richard Levitte*
805
806 * Introduced a new function, OSSL_PROVIDER_available(), which can be used
807 to check if a named provider is loaded and available. When called, it
808 will also activate all fallback providers if such are still present.
809
810 *Richard Levitte*
811
812 * Enforce a minimum DH modulus size of 512 bits.
813
814 *Bernd Edlinger*
815
816 * Changed DH parameters to generate the order q subgroup instead of 2q.
817 Previously generated DH parameters are still accepted by DH_check
818 but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the
819 private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key.
820
821 *Bernd Edlinger*
822
823 * Significantly reduce secure memory usage by the randomness pools.
824
825 *Paul Dale*
826
827 * `{CRYPTO,OPENSSL}_mem_debug_{push,pop}` are now no-ops and have been
828 deprecated.
829
830 *Rich Salz*
831
832 * A new type, EVP_KEYEXCH, has been introduced to represent key exchange
833 algorithms. An implementation of a key exchange algorithm can be obtained
834 by using the function EVP_KEYEXCH_fetch(). An EVP_KEYEXCH algorithm can be
835 used in a call to EVP_PKEY_derive_init_ex() which works in a similar way to
836 the older EVP_PKEY_derive_init() function. See the man pages for the new
837 functions for further details.
838
839 *Matt Caswell*
840
841 * The EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_pad() macro has now been converted to a function.
842
843 *Matt Caswell*
844
845 * Removed the function names from error messages and deprecated the
846 xxx_F_xxx define's.
847
848 * Removed NextStep support and the macro OPENSSL_UNISTD
849
850 *Rich Salz*
851
852 * Removed DES_check_key. Also removed OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL,
853 OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF, OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL.
854 Also removed "export var as function" capability; we do not export
855 variables, only functions.
856
857 *Rich Salz*
858
859 * RC5_32_set_key has been changed to return an int type, with 0 indicating
860 an error and 1 indicating success. In previous versions of OpenSSL this
861 was a void type. If a key was set longer than the maximum possible this
862 would crash.
863
864 *Matt Caswell*
865
866 * Support SM2 signing and verification schemes with X509 certificate.
867
868 *Paul Yang*
869
870 * Use SHA256 as the default digest for TS query in the ts app.
871
872 *Tomas Mraz*
873
874 * Change PBKDF2 to conform to SP800-132 instead of the older PKCS5 RFC2898.
875 This checks that the salt length is at least 128 bits, the derived key
876 length is at least 112 bits, and that the iteration count is at least 1000.
877 For backwards compatibility these checks are disabled by default in the
878 default provider, but are enabled by default in the fips provider.
879 To enable or disable these checks use the control
880 EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_PBKDF2_PKCS5_MODE.
881
882 *Shane Lontis*
883
884 * Default cipher lists/suites are now available via a function, the
885 #defines are deprecated.
886
887 *Todd Short*
888
889 * Add target VC-WIN32-UWP, VC-WIN64A-UWP, VC-WIN32-ARM-UWP and
890 VC-WIN64-ARM-UWP in Windows OneCore target for making building libraries
891 for Windows Store apps easier. Also, the "no-uplink" option has been added.
892
893 *Kenji Mouri*
894
895 * Join the directories crypto/x509 and crypto/x509v3
896
897 *Richard Levitte*
898
899 * Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
900 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
901 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
902 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
903
904 *Kurt Roeckx*
905
906 * Added command 'openssl kdf' that uses the EVP_KDF API.
907
908 *Shane Lontis*
909
910 * Added command 'openssl mac' that uses the EVP_MAC API.
911
912 *Shane Lontis*
913
914 * Added OPENSSL_info() to get diverse built-in OpenSSL data, such
915 as default directories. Also added the command 'openssl info'
916 for scripting purposes.
917
918 *Richard Levitte*
919
920 * The functions AES_ige_encrypt() and AES_bi_ige_encrypt() have been
921 deprecated. These undocumented functions were never integrated into the EVP
922 layer and implement the AES Infinite Garble Extension (IGE) mode and AES
923 Bi-directional IGE mode. These modes were never formally standardised and
924 usage of these functions is believed to be very small. In particular
925 AES_bi_ige_encrypt() has a known bug. It accepts 2 AES keys, but only one
926 is ever used. The security implications are believed to be minimal, but
927 this issue was never fixed for backwards compatibility reasons. New code
928 should not use these modes.
929
930 *Matt Caswell*
931
932 * Add prediction resistance to the DRBG reseeding process.
933
934 *Paul Dale*
935
936 * Limit the number of blocks in a data unit for AES-XTS to 2^20 as
937 mandated by IEEE Std 1619-2018.
938
939 *Paul Dale*
940
941 * Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
942 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the `*sum`
943 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
944
945 *Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale*
946
947 * Removed the heartbeat message in DTLS feature, as it has very
948 little usage and doesn't seem to fulfill a valuable purpose.
949 The configuration option is now deprecated.
950
951 *Richard Levitte*
952
953 * Changed the output of 'openssl {digestname} < file' to display the
954 digest name in its output.
955
956 *Richard Levitte*
957
958 * Added a new generic trace API which provides support for enabling
959 instrumentation through trace output. This feature is mainly intended
960 as an aid for developers and is disabled by default. To utilize it,
961 OpenSSL needs to be configured with the `enable-trace` option.
962
963 If the tracing API is enabled, the application can activate trace output
964 by registering BIOs as trace channels for a number of tracing and debugging
965 categories.
966
967 The 'openssl' application has been expanded to enable any of the types
968 available via environment variables defined by the user, and serves as
969 one possible example on how to use this functionality.
970
971 *Richard Levitte & Matthias St. Pierre*
972
973 * Added build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
974 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
975 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
976
977 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
978 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
979
980 *Richard Levitte*
981
982 * Add Single Step KDF (EVP_KDF_SS) to EVP_KDF.
983
984 *Shane Lontis*
985
986 * Add KMAC to EVP_MAC.
987
988 *Shane Lontis*
989
990 * Added property based algorithm implementation selection framework to
991 the core.
992
993 *Paul Dale*
994
995 * Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
996 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
997 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
998 to affine coordinates.
999
1000 *Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri*
1001
1002 * Added EVP_KDF, an EVP layer KDF API, to simplify adding KDF and PRF
1003 implementations. This includes an EVP_PKEY to EVP_KDF bridge for
1004 those algorithms that were already supported through the EVP_PKEY API
1005 (scrypt, TLS1 PRF and HKDF). The low-level KDF functions for PBKDF2
1006 and scrypt are now wrappers that call EVP_KDF.
1007
1008 *David Makepeace*
1009
1010 * Build devcrypto engine as a dynamic engine.
1011
1012 *Eneas U de Queiroz*
1013
1014 * Add keyed BLAKE2 to EVP_MAC.
1015
1016 *Antoine Salon*
1017
1018 * Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
1019 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
1020 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
1021 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
1022 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
1023 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
1024
1025 * Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
1026 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
1027
1028 *Bernd Edlinger*
1029
1030 * Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
1031
1032 *Richard Levitte*
1033
1034 * Change the license to the Apache License v2.0.
1035
1036 *Richard Levitte*
1037
1038 * Switch to a new version scheme using three numbers MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
1039
1040 - Major releases (indicated by incrementing the MAJOR release number)
1041 may introduce incompatible API/ABI changes.
1042 - Minor releases (indicated by incrementing the MINOR release number)
1043 may introduce new features but retain API/ABI compatibility.
1044 - Patch releases (indicated by incrementing the PATCH number)
1045 are intended for bug fixes and other improvements of existing
1046 features only (like improving performance or adding documentation)
1047 and retain API/ABI compatibility.
1048
1049 *Richard Levitte*
1050
1051 * Add support for RFC5297 SIV mode (siv128), including AES-SIV.
1052
1053 *Todd Short*
1054
1055 * Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
1056 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
1057 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
1058
1059 *Richard Levitte*
1060
1061 * Recreate the OS390-Unix config target. It no longer relies on a
1062 special script like it did for OpenSSL pre-1.1.0.
1063
1064 *Richard Levitte*
1065
1066 * Instead of having the source directories listed in Configure, add
1067 a 'build.info' keyword SUBDIRS to indicate what sub-directories to
1068 look into.
1069
1070 *Richard Levitte*
1071
1072 * Add GMAC to EVP_MAC.
1073
1074 *Paul Dale*
1075
1076 * Ported the HMAC, CMAC and SipHash EVP_PKEY_METHODs to EVP_MAC.
1077
1078 *Richard Levitte*
1079
1080 * Added EVP_MAC, an EVP layer MAC API, to simplify adding MAC
1081 implementations. This includes a generic EVP_PKEY to EVP_MAC bridge,
1082 to facilitate the continued use of MACs through raw private keys in
1083 functionality such as `EVP_DigestSign*` and `EVP_DigestVerify*`.
1084
1085 *Richard Levitte*
1086
1087 * Deprecate ECDH_KDF_X9_62() and mark its replacement as internal. Users
1088 should use the EVP interface instead (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_type).
1089
1090 *Antoine Salon*
1091
1092 * Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
1093 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
1094 are retained for backwards compatibility.
1095
1096 *Antoine Salon*
1097
1098 * AES-XTS mode now enforces that its two keys are different to mitigate
1099 the attacked described in "Efficient Instantiations of Tweakable
1100 Blockciphers and Refinements to Modes OCB and PMAC" by Phillip Rogaway.
1101 Details of this attack can be obtained from:
1102 <http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/%7Erogaway/papers/offsets.pdf>
1103
1104 *Paul Dale*
1105
1106 * Rename the object files, i.e. give them other names than in previous
1107 versions. Their names now include the name of the final product, as
1108 well as its type mnemonic (bin, lib, shlib).
1109
1110 *Richard Levitte*
1111
1112 * Added new option for 'openssl list', '-objects', which will display the
1113 list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names.
1114
1115 *Richard Levitte*
1116
1117 * Added support for Linux Kernel TLS data-path. The Linux Kernel data-path
1118 improves application performance by removing data copies and providing
1119 applications with zero-copy system calls such as sendfile and splice.
1120
1121 *Boris Pismenny*
1122
1123 * The SSL option SSL_OP_CLEANSE_PLAINTEXT is introduced. If that
1124 option is set, openssl cleanses (zeroize) plaintext bytes from
1125 internal buffers after delivering them to the application. Note,
1126 the application is still responsible for cleansing other copies
1127 (e.g.: data received by SSL_read(3)).

1134 ### Changes between 1.1.1e and 1.1.1f [xx XXX xxxx]
1135
1136 ### Changes between 1.1.1d and 1.1.1e [17 Mar 2020]
1137
1138 * Properly detect EOF while reading in libssl. Previously if we hit an EOF
1139 while reading in libssl then we would report an error back to the
1140 application (SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL) but errno would be 0. We now add
1141 an error to the stack (which means we instead return SSL_ERROR_SSL) and
1142 therefore give a hint as to what went wrong.
1143
1144 *Matt Caswell*
1145
1146 * Check that ed25519 and ed448 are allowed by the security level. Previously
1147 signature algorithms not using an MD were not being checked that they were
1148 allowed by the security level.
1149
1150 *Kurt Roeckx*
1151
1152 * Fixed SSL_get_servername() behaviour. The behaviour of SSL_get_servername()
1153 was not quite right. The behaviour was not consistent between resumption
1154 and normal handshakes, and also not quite consistent with historical
1155 behaviour. The behaviour in various scenarios has been clarified and
1156 it has been updated to make it match historical behaviour as closely as
1157 possible.
1158
1159 *Matt Caswell*
1160
1161 * *[VMS only]* The header files that the VMS compilers include automatically,
1162 `__DECC_INCLUDE_PROLOGUE.H` and `__DECC_INCLUDE_EPILOGUE.H`, use pragmas
1163 that the C++ compiler doesn't understand. This is a shortcoming in the
1164 compiler, but can be worked around with `__cplusplus` guards.
1165
1166 C++ applications that use OpenSSL libraries must be compiled using the
1167 qualifier `/NAMES=(AS_IS,SHORTENED)` to be able to use all the OpenSSL
1168 functions. Otherwise, only functions with symbols of less than 31
1169 characters can be used, as the linker will not be able to successfully
1170 resolve symbols with longer names.
1171
1172 *Richard Levitte*
1173
1174 * Added a new method to gather entropy on VMS, based on SYS$GET_ENTROPY.
1175 The presence of this system service is determined at run-time.
1176
1177 *Richard Levitte*
1178
1179 * Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
1180 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the `*sum`
1181 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
1182
1183 *Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale*
1184
1185 * Print all values for a PKCS#12 attribute with 'openssl pkcs12', not just
1186 the first value.
1187
1188 *Jon Spillett*
1189
1190 ### Changes between 1.1.1c and 1.1.1d [10 Sep 2019]
1191
1192 * Fixed a fork protection issue. OpenSSL 1.1.1 introduced a rewritten random
1193 number generator (RNG). This was intended to include protection in the
1194 event of a fork() system call in order to ensure that the parent and child
1195 processes did not share the same RNG state. However this protection was not
1196 being used in the default case.
1197
1198 A partial mitigation for this issue is that the output from a high
1199 precision timer is mixed into the RNG state so the likelihood of a parent
1200 and child process sharing state is significantly reduced.
1201
1202 If an application already calls OPENSSL_init_crypto() explicitly using
1203 OPENSSL_INIT_ATFORK then this problem does not occur at all.
1204 [CVE-2019-1549][]
1205
1206 *Matthias St. Pierre*
1207
1208 * For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
1209 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a serialized key
1210 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
1211 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
1212 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
1213 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
1214 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
1215 serialized, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
1216 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
1217
1218 *Nicola Tuveri*
1219
1220 * Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
1221 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
1222 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
1223 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
1224 [CVE-2019-1547][]
1225
1226 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1227
1228 * Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
1229 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
1230 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
1231 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
1232 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
1233 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
1234 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
1235 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
1236 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
1237 certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
1238 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
1239 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
1240 [CVE-2019-1563][]
1241
1242 *Bernd Edlinger*
1243
1244 * Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been
1245 improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for
1246 /dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom.
1247 The seeded state is stored for future library initialisations using
1248 a system global shared memory segment. The shared memory identifier
1249 can be configured by defining OPENSSL_RAND_SEED_DEVRANDOM_SHM_ID to
1250 the desired value. The default identifier is 114.
1251
1252 *Paul Dale*
1253
1254 * Correct the extended master secret constant on EBCDIC systems. Without this
1255 fix TLS connections between an EBCDIC system and a non-EBCDIC system that
1256 negotiate EMS will fail. Unfortunately this also means that TLS connections
1257 between EBCDIC systems with this fix, and EBCDIC systems without this
1258 fix will fail if they negotiate EMS.
1259
1260 *Matt Caswell*
1261
1262 * Use Windows installation paths in the mingw builds
1263
1264 Mingw isn't a POSIX environment per se, which means that Windows
1265 paths should be used for installation.
1266 [CVE-2019-1552][]
1267
1268 *Richard Levitte*
1269
1270 * Changed DH_check to accept parameters with order q and 2q subgroups.
1271 With order 2q subgroups the bit 0 of the private key is not secret
1272 but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the
1273 private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key.
1274
1275 *Bernd Edlinger*
1276
1277 * Significantly reduce secure memory usage by the randomness pools.
1278
1279 *Paul Dale*
1280
1281 * Revert the DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
1282
1283 The DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature added a select() call to wait for the
1284 /dev/random device to become readable before reading from the
1285 /dev/urandom device.
1286
1287 It turned out that this change had negative side effects on
1288 performance which were not acceptable. After some discussion it
1289 was decided to revert this feature and leave it up to the OS
1290 resp. the platform maintainer to ensure a proper initialization
1291 during early boot time.
1292
1293 *Matthias St. Pierre*
1294
1295 ### Changes between 1.1.1b and 1.1.1c [28 May 2019]
1296
1297 * Add build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
1298 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
1299 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
1300
1301 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
1302 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
1303
1304 *Richard Levitte*
1305
1306 * Enable SHA3 pre-hashing for ECDSA and DSA.
1307
1308 *Patrick Steuer*
1309
1310 * Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
1311 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
1312 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
1313 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
1314
1315 *Kurt Roeckx*
1316
1317 * Reorganize the manual pages to consistently have RETURN VALUES,
1318 EXAMPLES, SEE ALSO and HISTORY come in that order, and adjust
1319 util/fix-doc-nits accordingly.
1320
1321 *Paul Yang, Joshua Lock*
1322
1323 * Add the missing accessor EVP_PKEY_get0_engine()
1324
1325 *Matt Caswell*
1326
1327 * Have apps like 's_client' and 's_server' output the signature scheme
1328 along with other cipher suite parameters when debugging.
1329
1330 *Lorinczy Zsigmond*
1331
1332 * Make OPENSSL_config() error agnostic again.
1333
1334 *Richard Levitte*
1335
1336 * Do the error handling in RSA decryption constant time.
1337
1338 *Bernd Edlinger*
1339
1340 * Prevent over long nonces in ChaCha20-Poly1305.
1341
1342 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is an AEAD cipher, and requires a unique nonce input
1343 for every encryption operation. RFC 7539 specifies that the nonce value
1344 (IV) should be 96 bits (12 bytes). OpenSSL allows a variable nonce length
1345 and front pads the nonce with 0 bytes if it is less than 12
1346 bytes. However it also incorrectly allows a nonce to be set of up to 16
1347 bytes. In this case only the last 12 bytes are significant and any
1348 additional leading bytes are ignored.
1349
1350 It is a requirement of using this cipher that nonce values are
1351 unique. Messages encrypted using a reused nonce value are susceptible to
1352 serious confidentiality and integrity attacks. If an application changes
1353 the default nonce length to be longer than 12 bytes and then makes a
1354 change to the leading bytes of the nonce expecting the new value to be a
1355 new unique nonce then such an application could inadvertently encrypt
1356 messages with a reused nonce.
1357
1358 Additionally the ignored bytes in a long nonce are not covered by the
1359 integrity guarantee of this cipher. Any application that relies on the
1360 integrity of these ignored leading bytes of a long nonce may be further
1361 affected. Any OpenSSL internal use of this cipher, including in SSL/TLS,
1362 is safe because no such use sets such a long nonce value. However user
1363 applications that use this cipher directly and set a non-default nonce
1364 length to be longer than 12 bytes may be vulnerable.
1365
1366 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th of March 2019 by Joran Dirk
1367 Greef of Ronomon.
1368 [CVE-2019-1543][]
1369
1370 *Matt Caswell*
1371
1372 * Add DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
1373
1374 On older Linux systems where the getrandom() system call is not available,
1375 OpenSSL normally uses the /dev/urandom device for seeding its CSPRNG.
1376 Contrary to getrandom(), the /dev/urandom device will not block during
1377 early boot when the kernel CSPRNG has not been seeded yet.
1378
1379 To mitigate this known weakness, use select() to wait for /dev/random to
1380 become readable before reading from /dev/urandom.
1381
1382 * Ensure that SM2 only uses SM3 as digest algorithm
1383
1384 *Paul Yang*
1385
1386 ### Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [26 Feb 2019]
1387
1388 * Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
1389 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
1390 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
1391 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
1392 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
1393 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
1394 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
1395 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
1396 applications.
1397
1398 *Matt Caswell*
1399
1400 ### Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
1401
1402 * Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
1403
1404 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
1405 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
1406 algorithm to recover the private key.
1407
1408 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
1409 [CVE-2018-0734][]
1410
1411 *Paul Dale*
1412
1413 * Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
1414
1415 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
1416 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
1417 algorithm to recover the private key.
1418
1419 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
1420 [CVE-2018-0735][]
1421
1422 *Paul Dale*
1423
1424 * Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
1425 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
1426 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
1427
1428 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
1429 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
1430 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
1431 provided by the application.
1432
1433 ### Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
1434
1435 * Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
1436 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
1437 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
1438 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
1439 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
1440 of the ClientHello
1441
1442 *Benjamin Kaduk*
1443
1444 * Add SM2 base algorithm support.
1445
1446 *Jack Lloyd*
1447
1448 * s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
1449 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
1450 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
1451
1452 *Patrick Steuer*
1453
1454 * Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
1455 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
1456 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
1457
1458 *Richard Levitte*
1459
1460 * Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
1461 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
1462 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
1463 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
1464 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
1465 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
1466 to work in projective coordinates.
1467
1468 *Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri*
1469
1470 * Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
1471 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
1472 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
1473 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
1474 to 2^-128.
1475
1476 *Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar*
1477
1478 * Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
1479
1480 *Kurt Roeckx*
1481
1482 * The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
1483 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
1484 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
1485 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
1486
1487 *Richard Levitte*
1488
1489 * Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
1490 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
1491
1492 *Andy Polyakov*
1493
1494 * Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
1495 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
1496 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
1497 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
1498
1499 *Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri*
1500
1501 * Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
1502 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
1503 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
1504 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
1505 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
1506
1507 *Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri*
1508
1509 * Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
1510 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
1511 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
1512 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
1513 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
1514
1515 *Paul Dale*
1516
1517 * Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
1518 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
1519 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
1520 authors.
1521
1522 *Matt Caswell*
1523
1524 * AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
1525 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
1526 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
1527 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
1528 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
1529 multi-version installation is managed.
1530
1531 *Andy Polyakov*
1532
1533 * Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
1534 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
1535 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
1536 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
1537 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
1538
1539 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1540
1541 * Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
1542 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
1543 chosen point SCA attacks.
1544
1545 *Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley*
1546
1547 * Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
1548 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
1549
1550 *Matt Caswell*
1551
1552 * Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
1553 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
1554 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
1555
1556 *Matt Caswell*
1557
1558 * SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
1559 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
1560 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
1561 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
1562 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
1563 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
1564 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
1565 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
1566 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
1567
1568 *Kurt Roeckx*
1569
1570 * When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
1571 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
1572
1573 *Richard Levitte*
1574
1575 * Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
1576 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
1577
1578 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1579
1580 * Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
1581 binary and prime elliptic curves.
1582
1583 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1584
1585 * Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
1586 constant time fixed point multiplication.
1587
1588 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1589
1590 * Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
1591 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
1592 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
1593 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
1594 ECDH derive operations).
1595 *Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
1596 Sohaib ul Hassan*
1597
1598 * Updated CONTRIBUTING
1599
1600 *Rich Salz*
1601
1602 * Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
1603 randomness from the system.
1604
1605 *Matthias St. Pierre*
1606
1607 * Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
1608
1609 *Richard Levitte*
1610
1611 * Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
1612 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
1613
1614 *Matt Caswell*
1615
1616 * Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
1617
1618 *Matt Caswell*
1619
1620 * Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
1621
1622 *Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz*
1623
1624 * Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
1625
1626 *Richard Levitte*
1627
1628 * Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
1629 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
1630 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
1631
1632 *Matt Caswell*
1633
1634 * Memory allocation failures consistently add an error to the error
1635 stack.
1636
1637 *Rich Salz*
1638
1639 * Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
1640 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
1641
1642 *Bernd Edlinger*
1643
1644 * Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
1645
1646 *Matt Caswell*
1647
1648 * Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
1649 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
1650
1651 *Matthias St. Pierre*
1652
1653 * QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
1654 for the license change).
1655
1656 *Rich Salz*
1657
1658 * TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
1659 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
1660
1661 *Matt Caswell*
1662
1663 * Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
1664 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
1665 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
1666 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
1667 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
1668 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
1669 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
1670
1671 *Matt Caswell*
1672
1673 * On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
1674 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
1675 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
1676 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
1677 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
1678 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
1679 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
1680 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
1681 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
1682 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
1683 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
1684 written to stderr.
1685
1686 *Viktor Dukhovni*
1687
1688 * Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
1689 Mike Hamburg.
1690
1691 *Matt Caswell*
1692
1693 * Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
1694 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
1695 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
1696 get the search data out of them.
1697
1698 *Richard Levitte*
1699
1700 * Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
1701 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
1702 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
1703 <https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3>
1704
1705 *Matt Caswell*
1706
1707 * Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
1708
1709 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
1710 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
1711 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
1712 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
1713 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
1714 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
1715
1716 Some of its new features are:
1717 - Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
1718 - The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
1719 - There is a public and private DRBG instance.
1720 - The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
1721 - Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
1722 - The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
1723 operation
1724
1725 *Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre*
1726
1727 * Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
1728 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
1729 to display all sorts of configuration data.
1730
1731 *Richard Levitte*
1732
1733 * Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
1734
1735 *Richard Levitte*
1736
1737 * Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
1738
1739 *Paul Dale*
1740
1741 * The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
1742 now been removed.
1743
1744 *Rich Salz*
1745
1746 * Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
1747 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
1748 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
1749 debug (or make silent).
1750
1751 *Richard Levitte*
1752
1753 * Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
1754 arguments to config / Configure.
1755
1756 *Richard Levitte*
1757
1758 * Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
1759
1760 *Paul Yang*
1761
1762 * Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
1763 *Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,*
1764 *Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,*
1765 *Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com>*
1766
1767 * Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
1768 as documented in RFC6066.
1769 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
1770
1771 *Filipe Raimundo da Silva*
1772
1773 * Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
1774 *Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,*
1775 *Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,*
1776 *Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com>*
1777
1778 * Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
1779 original author does not agree with the license change.
1780
1781 *Rich Salz*
1782
1783 * Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
1784
1785 *Jon Spillett*
1786
1787 * Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
1788 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
1789
1790 *Rich Salz*
1791
1792 * Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
1793 without clearing the errors.
1794
1795 *Richard Levitte*
1796
1797 * Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
1798 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
1799 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
1800
1801 *Rich Salz*
1802
1803 * Add SHA3.
1804
1805 *Andy Polyakov*
1806
1807 * The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
1808 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
1809 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
1810 as a fallback).
1811
1812 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
1813 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
1814 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
1815 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
1816
1817 *Richard Levitte*
1818
1819 * Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
1820 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
1821 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
1822 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
1823 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
1824 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
1825 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
1826
1827 *Richard Levitte*
1828
1829 * Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
1830 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
1831 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
1832 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
1833
1834 *Richard Levitte*
1835
1836 * Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
1837 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
1838 error code calls like this:
1839
1840 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
1841
1842 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
1843 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
1844 affect new modules.
1845
1846 *Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson*
1847
1848 * Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
1849
1850 *Rich Salz*
1851
1852 * Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
1853 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
1854 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
1855 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
1856
1857 *Richard Levitte*
1858
1859 * In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
1860 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
1861 than just the call where this user data is passed.
1862
1863 *Richard Levitte*
1864
1865 * Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
1866 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
1867
1868 *Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>*
1869
1870 * Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
1871 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
1872 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
1873 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
1874 prohibits this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
1875 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
1876 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause interoperability
1877 issues.
1878
1879 *Matt Caswell*
1880
1881 * Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
1882 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
1883 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
1884 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
1885
1886 *Richard Levitte*
1887
1888 * Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
1889 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
1890
1891 *Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov*
1892
1893 * Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
1894 does for RSA, etc.
1895
1896 *Richard Levitte*
1897
1898 * Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
1899 platform rather than 'mingw'.
1900
1901 *Richard Levitte*
1902
1903 * The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
1904 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
1905 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
1906 certificates and CRLs.
1907
1908 *Paul Dale*
1909
1910 * x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
1911 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
1912
1913 *Andy Polyakov*
1914
1915 * Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
1916 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
1917
1918 *Richard Levitte*
1919
1920 * Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
1921 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
1922 which is the minimum version we support.
1923
1924 *Richard Levitte*
1925
1926 * Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
1927 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
1928 are no longer allowed.
1929
1930 *Emilia Käsper*
1931
1932 * Add support for ARIA
1933
1934 *Paul Dale*
1935
1936 * s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
1937 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
1938 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
1939 using "-servername".
1940
1941 *Matt Caswell*
1942
1943 * Add support for SipHash
1944
1945 *Todd Short*
1946
1947 * OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
1948 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
1949 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
1950 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
1951
1952 *Matt Caswell*
1953
1954 * 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
1955 using the algorithm defined in
1956 <https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt>
1957
1958 *Richard Levitte*
1959
1960 * Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
1961
1962 *Richard Levitte, Rich Salz*
1963
1964 * Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
1965
1966 *Emilia Käsper*
1967
1968 * The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
1969 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
1970
1971 *Rich Salz*
1972
1973 OpenSSL 1.1.0
1974 -------------
1975
1976 ### Changes between 1.1.0k and 1.1.0l [10 Sep 2019]
1977
1978 * For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
1979 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a serialized key
1980 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
1981 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
1982 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
1983 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
1984 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
1985 serialized, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
1986 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
1987
1988 *Nicola Tuveri*
1989
1990 * Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
1991 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
1992 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
1993 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
1994 [CVE-2019-1547][]
1995
1996 *Billy Bob Brumley*
1997
1998 * Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
1999 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
2000 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
2001 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
2002 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
2003 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
2004 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
2005 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
2006 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
2007 certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
2008 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
2009 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
2010 [CVE-2019-1563][]
2011
2012 *Bernd Edlinger*
2013
2014 * Use Windows installation paths in the mingw builds
2015

2022 ### Changes between 1.1.0j and 1.1.0k [28 May 2019]
2023
2024 * Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
2025 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
2026 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
2027 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
2028
2029 *Kurt Roeckx*
2030
2031 * Prevent over long nonces in ChaCha20-Poly1305.
2032
2033 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is an AEAD cipher, and requires a unique nonce input
2034 for every encryption operation. RFC 7539 specifies that the nonce value
2035 (IV) should be 96 bits (12 bytes). OpenSSL allows a variable nonce length
2036 and front pads the nonce with 0 bytes if it is less than 12
2037 bytes. However it also incorrectly allows a nonce to be set of up to 16
2038 bytes. In this case only the last 12 bytes are significant and any
2039 additional leading bytes are ignored.
2040
2041 It is a requirement of using this cipher that nonce values are
2042 unique. Messages encrypted using a reused nonce value are susceptible to
2043 serious confidentiality and integrity attacks. If an application changes
2044 the default nonce length to be longer than 12 bytes and then makes a
2045 change to the leading bytes of the nonce expecting the new value to be a
2046 new unique nonce then such an application could inadvertently encrypt
2047 messages with a reused nonce.
2048
2049 Additionally the ignored bytes in a long nonce are not covered by the
2050 integrity guarantee of this cipher. Any application that relies on the
2051 integrity of these ignored leading bytes of a long nonce may be further
2052 affected. Any OpenSSL internal use of this cipher, including in SSL/TLS,
2053 is safe because no such use sets such a long nonce value. However user
2054 applications that use this cipher directly and set a non-default nonce
2055 length to be longer than 12 bytes may be vulnerable.

2117 * Client DoS due to large DH parameter
2118
2119 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
2120 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
2121 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
2122 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
2123 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.

2131
2132 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to

2153
2154 * Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
2155 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
2156 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.

2158 to 2^-128.

2178 are no longer allowed.
2179
2180 *Emilia Käsper*
2181
2182 * Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
2183
2184 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
2185 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
2186 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
2187 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
2188 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
2189 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
2190 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
2191 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
2192 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
2193 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
2194 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
2195 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
2196 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).

2202 * Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
2203
2204 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
2205 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
2206 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
2207 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
2208 so this is considered safe.

2216 * Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
2217
2218 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
2219 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
2220 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
2221 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
2222 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
2223 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.

2235
2236 *Richard Levitte*
2237
2238 * Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
2239
2240 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
2241 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
2242 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
2243 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
2244 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
2245
2246 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
2247 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
2248 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.

2256
2257 * rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
2258
2259 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
2260 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
2261 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
2262 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
2263 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
2264 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
2265 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
2266 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
2267 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
2268 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
2269
2270 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
2271 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).

2282
2283 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2284 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2285 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2286 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2287 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2288 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2289 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2290 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2291 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2292 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2293 key that is shared between multiple clients.

2415
2416 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
2417 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
2418 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
2419 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
2420 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
2421 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
2422 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
2423 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
2424 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
2425 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
2426 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
2427 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
2428 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
2429 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.

2489 * Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
2490 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
2491
2492 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
2493 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
2494 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
2495 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
2496 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
2497 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
2498 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
2499 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
2500 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
2501 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
2502 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
2503 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
2504 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
2505 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
2506 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
2507
2508 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
2509 that the connection fails
2510 or
2511 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
2512 very little free memory
2513 or
2514 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
2515 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
2516 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
2517 memory to service the multiple requests.
2518
2519 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
2520 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
2521 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
2522 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
2523 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
2524
2525 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
2526 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
2527
2528 *Matt Caswell*
2529
2530 * solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
2531 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
2532 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
2533 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
2534 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
2535 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
2536 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
2537
2538 *Andy Polyakov*
2539
2540 ### Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
2541
2542 * Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
2543 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
2544 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
2545 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
2546 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
2547 non-ASCII password.
2548
2549 *Andy Polyakov*
2550
2551 * To mitigate the SWEET32 attack [CVE-2016-2183][], 3DES cipher suites
2552 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
2553 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
2554
2555 *Rich Salz*
2556
2557 * The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
2558 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
2559 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
2560 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
2561
2562 *Matt Caswell*
2563
2564 * The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
2565 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
2566 success.
2567
2568 *Matt Caswell*
2569
2570 * The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
2571 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
2572 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
2573 no-ops and deprecated.
2574
2575 *Matt Caswell*
2576
2577 * Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
2578 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
2579 were also closed.
2580
2581 *Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz*
2582
2583 * The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with `OPENSSL_SK_`
2584 and `OPENSSL_LH_`, respectively. The old names are available
2585 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
2586
2587 *Rich Salz*
2588
2589 * Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
2590 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
2591 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
2592 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
2593 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
2594 and the validity of object reference counter.
2595
2596 *fdasilvayy@gmail.com*
2597
2598 * With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
2599 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
2600 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
2601 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
2602
2603 *Richard Levitte*
2604
2605 * Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
2606
2607 *Richard Levitte*
2608
2609 * Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
2610 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
2611 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
2612 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
2613
2614 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
2615
2616 *Richard Levitte*
2617
2618 * Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
2619 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
2620
2621 *Steve Henson*
2622
2623 * Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
2624
2625 *Andy Polyakov*
2626
2627 * Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
2628
2629 *Rich Salz*
2630
2631 * To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
2632 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
2633 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
2634 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
2635 name and is used as is.
2636
2637 *Richard Levitte*
2638
2639 * The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
2640 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
2641 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
2642
2643 *Rich Salz*
2644
2645 * "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
2646 the "no-shared" Configure option.
2647
2648 *Matt Caswell*
2649
2650 * Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
2651 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
2652 algorithms.
2653
2654 *Matt Caswell*
2655
2656 * Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
2657 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
2658 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
2659 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
2660 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
2661 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
2662 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
2663 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
2664 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
2665
2666 *Matt Caswell*
2667
2668 * --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
2669 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
2670 enabled with '--debug' builds.
2671
2672 *Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper*
2673
2674 * Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
2675 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
2676 these have been added.
2677
2678 *Matt Caswell*
2679
2680 * Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
2681 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
2682 functions for managing these have been added.
2683
2684 *Richard Levitte*
2685
2686 * Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
2687 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
2688 these have been added.
2689
2690 *Matt Caswell*
2691
2692 * Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
2693 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
2694 have been added.
2695
2696 *Matt Caswell*
2697
2698 * Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
2699
2700 *Matt Caswell*
2701
2702 * Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
2703
2704 *Richard Levitte*
2705
2706 * Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
2707 it is always safe to #include a header now.
2708
2709 *Rich Salz*
2710
2711 * Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
2712
2713 *Richard Levitte*
2714
2715 * Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
2716
2717 *Rich Salz*
2718
2719 * Add support for HKDF.
2720
2721 *Alessandro Ghedini*
2722
2723 * Add support for blake2b and blake2s
2724
2725 *Bill Cox*
2726
2727 * Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
2728 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
2729 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
2730 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
2731 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
2732 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
2733 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
2734
2735 *Matt Caswell*
2736
2737 * Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
2738 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
2739 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
2740
2741 *Catriona Lucey*
2742
2743 * OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
2744 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
2745 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
2746 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
2747 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
2748 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
2749
2750 *Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell*
2751
2752 * Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2753 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2754
2755 *Todd Short*
2756
2757 * Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
2758
2759 *Todd Short*
2760
2761 * Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
2762 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
2763 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
2764 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
2765 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
2766 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
2767 default cipherlist.
2768
2769 *Emilia Käsper*
2770
2771 * Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
2772 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
2773
2774 *Rich Salz*
2775
2776 * RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
2777 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
2778 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
2779
2780 *Matt Caswell*
2781
2782 * If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
2783 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
2784 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
2785 implemented by other servers.
2786
2787 *Emilia Käsper*
2788
2789 * Add X25519 support.
2790 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
2791 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
2792 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
2793 key generation and key derivation.
2794
2795 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
2796 X25519(29).
2797
2798 *Steve Henson*
2799
2800 * Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
2801 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2802 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak [CVE-2016-0798][],
2803 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
2804 seed, even if the seed is configured.
2805
2806 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2807 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2808 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2809 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2810 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2811 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2812 that of a valid user.
2813
2814 *Emilia Käsper*
2815
2816 * Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
2817 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
2818 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
2819 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
2820
2821 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
2822 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
2823
2824 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
2825 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
2826 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
2827 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
2828
2829 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
2830 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
2831 irrelevant.
2832
2833 *Richard Levitte*
2834
2835 * Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
2836 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
2837 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
2838 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
2839 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
2840 of how OpenSSL was configured.
2841
2842 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
2843 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
2844 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
2845
2846 *Richard Levitte*
2847
2848 * Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
2849
2850 *Rich Salz*
2851
2852 * The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
2853 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
2854 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
2855 removed.
2856
2857 *Richard Levitte*
2858
2859 * Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
2860 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
2861 old #define's might need to be updated.
2862
2863 *Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz*
2864
2865 * Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
2866
2867 *Rich Salz*
2868
2869 * New "unified" build system
2870
2871 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
2872 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
2873
2874 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
2875 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
2876 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
2877
2878 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
2879 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
2880 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
2881 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
2882 descrip.mms.tmpl.
2883
2884 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
2885 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
2886 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
2887 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
2888 libraries" in INSTALL.
2889
2890 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
2891
2892 *Richard Levitte*
2893
2894 * Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
2895 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
2896 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
2897 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
2898
2899 *Matt Caswell*
2900
2901 * The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
2902 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
2903
2904 * Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
2905 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
2906 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
2907 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
2908 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
2909 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
2910 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
2911 have been adapted accordingly.
2912
2913 *Richard Levitte*
2914
2915 * RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
2916 the leading 0-byte.
2917
2918 *Emilia Käsper*
2919
2920 * CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
2921 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
2922 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
2923 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
2924
2925 *Emilia Käsper*
2926
2927 * The signature of the session callback configured with
2928 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
2929 was explicitly marked as `const unsigned char*` instead of
2930 `unsigned char*`.
2931
2932 *Emilia Käsper*
2933
2934 * Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
2935 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
2936
2937 *Emilia Käsper*
2938
2939 * Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
2940 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
2941 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
2942 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
2943 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
2944 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
2945
2946 *Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov*
2947
2948 * Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
2949
2950 *Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov*
2951
2952 * Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
2953 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
2954 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
2955 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
2956 Text::Template.
2957
2958 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
2959 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
2960 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
2961 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
2962 configuration in one of the `Configurations/*.conf` files (in
2963 %target).
2964
2965 *Richard Levitte*
2966
2967 * To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
2968 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
2969 straightforward and less interdependent.
2970
2971 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
2972 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
2973 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
2974
2975 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
2976 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
2977 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
2978 installed.
2979 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
2980 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
2981 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
2982 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
2983
2984 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
2985 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
2986
2987 *Richard Levitte*
2988
2989 * The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
2990 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
2991 See: <https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries>. Libssl still retains
2992 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
2993 is present).
2994
2995 *Matt Caswell*
2996
2997 * EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
2998 configuring.
2999
3000 *Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz*
3001
3002 * The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
3003 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
3004 before trying to build now.*
3005
3006 *Rich Salz*
3007
3008 * The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
3009 has changed.
3010
3011 *Rich Salz*
3012
3013 * Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
3014
3015 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
3016 the application's responsibility. The application provides
3017 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
3018 used to authenticate the peer.
3019
3020 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
3021 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
3022 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
3023 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
3024 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
3025
3026 *Viktor Dukhovni*
3027
3028 * Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
3029 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
3030 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
3031 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
3032 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
3033 or the 1.1.0 releases.
3034
3035 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
3036 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
3037 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
3038 support for the deprecated features from the library and
3039 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
3040 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
3041 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
3042 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
3043 version.
3044
3045 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
3046 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
3047 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
3048 compile with later releases.
3049
3050 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
3051 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
3052 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
3053 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
3054 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
3055
3056 *Viktor Dukhovni*
3057
3058 * Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
3059 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
3060 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
3061 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
3062 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
3063 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
3064 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
3065 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
3066
3067 *Kurt Roeckx*
3068
3069 * Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
3070
3071 *Andy Polyakov*
3072
3073 * New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
3074 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
3075 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
3076 ECDSA_SIG format.
3077
3078 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
3079 include the ec.h header file instead.
3080
3081 *Steve Henson*
3082
3083 * Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
3084 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
3085 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
3086
3087 *Kurt Roeckx*
3088
3089 * Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
3090 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
3091 were added:
3092
3093 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
3094 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
3095
3096 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
3097 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
3098 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
3099
3100 Additional changes:
3101 1) `EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup()`, `EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup()` and
3102 `HMAC_CTX_cleanup()` were removed. `HMAC_CTX_reset()` and
3103 `EVP_MD_CTX_reset()` should be called instead to reinitialise
3104 an already created structure.
3105 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
3106 destructors, `EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy)` were renamed to
3107 `EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free)`. The old names are retained as macros
3108 for deprecated builds.
3109
3110 *Richard Levitte*
3111
3112 * Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
3113 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
3114 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
3115 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
3116 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
3117 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
3118 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
3119
3120 *Matt Caswell*
3121
3122 * SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
3123 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
3124 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
3125 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
3126
3127 *Kurt Roeckx*
3128
3129 * SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
3130 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
3131
3132 *Kurt Roeckx*
3133
3134 * Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
3135 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
3136
3137 *Kurt Roeckx*
3138
3139 * State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
3140 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
3141 with the old code (see [ssl/statem/README.md](ssl/statem/README.md) for
3142 further details). This change does have some associated API changes.
3143 Notably the SSL_state() function has been removed and replaced by
3144 SSL_get_state which now returns an "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int.
3145 SSL_set_state() has been removed altogether. The previous handshake states
3146 defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have also been removed.
3147
3148 *Matt Caswell*
3149
3150 * All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
3151 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
3152 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
3153
3154 *Rich Salz*
3155
3156 * The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
3157
3158 *Rich Salz*
3159
3160 * Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
3161 sureware and ubsec.
3162
3163 *Matt Caswell, Rich Salz*
3164
3165 * New ASN.1 embed macro.
3166
3167 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
3168 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
3169
3170 FOO *x;
3171
3172 it must be:
3173
3174 FOO x;
3175
3176 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
3177 set a mandatory field to NULL.
3178
3179 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
3180 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
3181 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
3182 SEQUENCE OF.
3183
3184 *Steve Henson*
3185
3186 * Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
3187
3188 *Emilia Käsper*
3189
3190 * Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
3191 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
3192 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
3193 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
3194
3195 *Matt Caswell*
3196
3197 * Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
3198 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
3199 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
3200 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
3201
3202 *Emilia Käsper*
3203
3204 * Fix no-stdio build.
3205 *David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also*
3206 *Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com>*
3207
3208 * New testing framework
3209 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
3210 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
3211 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
3212 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
3213 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
3214 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
3215
3216 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
3217
3218 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
3219 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
3220
3221 *Richard Levitte*
3222
3223 * Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
3224 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
3225 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
3226 and others were changed. All are now documented.
3227
3228 *Rich Salz*
3229
3230 * In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
3231 return an error
3232
3233 *Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>*
3234
3235 * Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
3236 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
3237
3238 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
3239 original RSA_PSK patch.
3240
3241 *Steve Henson*
3242
3243 * Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
3244 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
3245 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
3246 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
3247
3248 *Matt Caswell*
3249
3250 * Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
3251 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
3252
3253 *Richard Levitte*
3254
3255 * Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
3256 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
3257 hasn't been working properly for a while.
3258
3259 *Emilia Käsper*
3260
3261 * The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
3262 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
3263 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
3264 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
3265 transferred.
3266
3267 *Matt Caswell*
3268
3269 * Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
3270 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
3271 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
3272 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
3273
3274 *Matt Caswell*
3275
3276 * Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
3277 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
3278 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
3279 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
3280 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
3281 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
3282
3283 *Matt Caswell*
3284
3285 * Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
3286 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
3287 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
3288 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
3289 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
3290 header file has been removed.
3291
3292 *Matt Caswell*
3293
3294 * Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
3295 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
3296
3297 *Matt Caswell*
3298
3299 * RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
3300 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
3301 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
3302
3303 * Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
3304 Added a test.
3305
3306 *Rich Salz*
3307
3308 * Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
3309
3310 *Rich Salz*
3311
3312 * Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
3313 sha256
3314
3315 *Rich Salz*
3316
3317 * RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
3318
3319 *Matt Caswell*
3320
3321 * Added support for TLS extended master secret from
3322 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
3323 initial patch which was a great help during development.
3324
3325 *Steve Henson*
3326
3327 * All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
3328 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
3329 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
3330 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
3331
3332 *Matt Caswell*
3333
3334 * config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
3335 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
3336 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
3337 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
3338 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
3339 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
3340
3341 *Matt Caswell*
3342
3343 * Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
3344 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
3345 at <https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf>. Support
3346 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
3347
3348 *Matt Caswell*
3349
3350 * SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
3351 compatible client hello.
3352
3353 *Kurt Roeckx*
3354
3355 * Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
3356 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
3357
3358 *Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>*
3359
3360 * CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
3361
3362 *Rich Salz*
3363
3364 * Removed old DES API.
3365
3366 *Rich Salz*
3367
3368 * Remove various unsupported platforms:
3369 Sony NEWS4
3370 BEOS and BEOS_R5
3371 NeXT
3372 SUNOS
3373 MPE/iX
3374 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
3375 DGUX
3376 NCR
3377 Tandem
3378 Cray
3379 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
3380
3381 *Rich Salz*
3382
3383 * Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
3384 - Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
3385 - Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
3386 - OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
3387 - OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
3388 - OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
3389 - Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
3390 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
3391 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
3392 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
3393 - Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
3394
3395 *Rich Salz*
3396
3397 * Cleaned up dead code
3398 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
3399
3400 *Rich Salz*
3401
3402 * Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
3403 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
3404 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
3405
3406 *Rich Salz*
3407
3408 * Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
3409 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
3410 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
3411
3412 *Rich Salz*
3413
3414 * Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
3415 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
3416
3417 *Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>*
3418
3419 * New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
3420 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
3421
3422 *Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>*
3423
3424 * Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3425 compilation flags.
3426
3427 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
3428
3429 * Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3430 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
3431
3432 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
3433
3434 * Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3435
3436 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
3437
3438 * A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3439 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3440 server.
3441
3442 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3443 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3444 preparing the fix [CVE-2014-0160][]
3445
3446 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller*
3447
3448 * Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3449 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3450 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3451 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140>
3452
3453 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3454 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix [CVE-2014-0076][]
3455
3456 *Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger*
3457
3458 * Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
3459 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
3460
3461 *Steve Henson*
3462
3463 * Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
3464
3465 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
3466 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
3467
3468 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
3469 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
3470
3471 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
3472 effect.
3473
3474 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
3475
3476 *Steve Henson*
3477
3478 * Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
3479 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
3480 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
3481 algorithms and include tests cases.
3482
3483 *Steve Henson*
3484
3485 * Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
3486 enveloped data.
3487
3488 *Steve Henson*
3489
3490 * Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
3491 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
3492
3493 *Steve Henson*
3494
3495 * Make openssl verify return errors.
3496
3497 *Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie*
3498
3499 * New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
3500 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
3501
3502 *Steve Henson*
3503
3504 * Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
3505 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
3506 failures.
3507
3508 *Steve Henson*
3509
3510 * Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
3511 sign or verify all in one operation.
3512
3513 *Steve Henson*
3514
3515 * Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
3516 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
3517 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
3518
3519 *Steve Henson*
3520
3521 * Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
3522
3523 *Steve Henson*
3524
3525 * Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
3526
3527 *Steve Henson*
3528
3529 * Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
3530 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
3531 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
3532 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
3533 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
3534
3535 *Steve Henson*
3536
3537 * New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
3538 based on NID.
3539
3540 *Steve Henson*
3541
3542 * More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
3543 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
3544 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
3545
3546 *Steve Henson*
3547
3548 * Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
3549 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
3550
3551 * Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
3552 POST to handle HMAC cases.
3553
3554 *Steve Henson*
3555
3556 * Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
3557 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
3558
3559 *Steve Henson*
3560
3561 * Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
3562 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
3563 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
3564
3565 *Steve Henson*
3566
3567 * Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
3568 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
3569 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
3570 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
3571 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
3572 requested amount of entropy.
3573
3574 *Steve Henson*
3575
3576 * Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
3577 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
3578
3579 *Steve Henson*
3580
3581 * CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
3582 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
3583 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
3584 support.
3585
3586 *Steve Henson*
3587
3588 * Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
3589 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
3590 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
3591
3592 *Steve Henson*
3593
3594 * XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
3595 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
3596 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
3597 will never use XTS mode.
3598
3599 *Steve Henson*
3600
3601 * Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
3602 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
3603 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
3604 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
3605 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
3606 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
3607
3608 *Steve Henson*
3609
3610 * Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form `FIPS_rand*` to `FIPS_x931*`.
3611 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
3612 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
3613 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
3614
3615 *Steve Henson*
3616
3617 * Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
3618 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
3619 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
3620
3621 *Steve Henson*
3622
3623 * Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
3624
3625 *Steve Henson*
3626
3627 * New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
3628
3629 *Steve Henson*
3630
3631 * New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
3632 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
3633
3634 *Steve Henson*
3635
3636 * Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
3637 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
3638
3639 *Steve Henson*
3640
3641 * Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
3642 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
3643
3644 *Steve Henson*
3645
3646 * Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
3647 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
3648 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
3649 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
3650 and rename any affected symbols.
3651
3652 *Steve Henson*
3653
3654 * Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
3655 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
3656
3657 *Steve Henson*
3658
3659 * Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
3660 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
3661 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
3662
3663 *Steve Henson*
3664
3665 * New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
3666
3667 *Steve Henson*
3668
3669 * New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
3670 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
3671 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
3672
3673 *Steve Henson*
3674
3675 * Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
3676 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
3677
3678 *Steve Henson*
3679
3680 * Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
3681 setting output buffer to NULL. The `*Final` function must be
3682 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
3683 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
3684 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
3685 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
3686 set before the key.
3687
3688 *Steve Henson*
3689
3690 * New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
3691 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
3692 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
3693 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
3694 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
3695 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
3696 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
3697 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
3698
3699 *Steve Henson*
3700
3701 * If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
3702 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
3703
3704 *Steve Henson*
3705
3706 * Improve forward-security support: add functions
3707
3708 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(
3709 SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
3710 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(
3711 SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
3712
3713 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
3714 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
3715 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
3716 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
3717 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
3718 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
3719
3720 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
3721 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
3722 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
3723 security.
3724
3725 *Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)*
3726
3727 * New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
3728 parameters by name.
3729
3730 *Steve Henson*
3731
3732 * Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
3733 Add CMAC pkey methods.
3734
3735 *Steve Henson*
3736
3737 * Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
3738 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
3739 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
3740
3741 *Steve Henson*
3742
3743 * Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
3744 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
3745 multi-process servers.
3746
3747 *Steve Henson*
3748
3749 * Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
3750 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
3751 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
3752 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
3753 RAND_METHOD structure.
3754
3755 *Steve Henson*
3756
3757 * New macro `__owur` for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
3758 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
3759 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
3760 whose return value is often ignored.
3761
3762 *Steve Henson*
3763
3764 * New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
3765 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
3766 validated when establishing a connection.

3772
3773 ### Changes between 1.0.2s and 1.0.2t [10 Sep 2019]
3774
3775 * For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
3776 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a serialized key
3777 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
3778 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
3779 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
3780 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
3781 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
3782 serialized, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
3783 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
3784
3785 *Nicola Tuveri*
3786
3787 * Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
3788 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
3789 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
3790 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
3791 [CVE-2019-1547][]
3792
3793 *Billy Bob Brumley*
3794
3795 * Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
3796 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
3797 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
3798 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
3799 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
3800 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
3801 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
3802 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
3803 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
3804 certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
3805 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3806 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.

3819 ### Changes between 1.0.2r and 1.0.2s [28 May 2019]
3820
3821 * Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
3822 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
3823 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
3824 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
3825
3826 *Kurt Roeckx*
3827
3828 * Add FIPS support for Android Arm 64-bit
3829
3830 Support for Android Arm 64-bit was added to the OpenSSL FIPS Object
3831 Module in Version 2.0.10. For some reason, the corresponding target
3832 'android64-aarch64' was missing OpenSSL 1.0.2, whence it could not be
3833 built with FIPS support on Android Arm 64-bit. This omission has been
3834 fixed.

3838 ### Changes between 1.0.2q and 1.0.2r [26 Feb 2019]
3839
3840 * 0-byte record padding oracle
3841
3842 If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls
3843 SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive one)
3844 then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte
3845 record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is
3846 received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently
3847 based on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this
3848 amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data.
3849
3850 In order for this to be exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in
3851 use. Stitched ciphersuites are optimised implementations of certain
3852 commonly used ciphersuites. Also the application must call SSL_shutdown()
3853 twice even if a protocol error has occurred (applications should not do
3854 this but some do anyway).
3855
3856 This issue was discovered by Juraj Somorovsky, Robert Merget and Nimrod
3857 Aviram, with additional investigation by Steven Collison and Andrew
3858 Hourselt. It was reported to OpenSSL on 10th December 2018.

3870
3871 OpenSSL ECC scalar multiplication, used in e.g. ECDSA and ECDH, has been
3872 shown to be vulnerable to a microarchitecture timing side channel attack.
3873 An attacker with sufficient access to mount local timing attacks during
3874 ECDSA signature generation could recover the private key.

3902 * Client DoS due to large DH parameter
3903
3904 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
3905 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
3906 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
3907 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
3908 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.

3938
3939 * Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
3940 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
3941 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
3942 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered

3970
3971 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
3972 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
3973 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
3974 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
3975 so this is considered safe.

3983 ### Changes between 1.0.2m and 1.0.2n [7 Dec 2017]
3984
3985 * Read/write after SSL object in error state
3986
3987 OpenSSL 1.0.2 (starting from version 1.0.2b) introduced an "error state"
3988 mechanism. The intent was that if a fatal error occurred during a handshake
3989 then OpenSSL would move into the error state and would immediately fail if
3990 you attempted to continue the handshake. This works as designed for the
3991 explicit handshake functions (SSL_do_handshake(), SSL_accept() and
3992 SSL_connect()), however due to a bug it does not work correctly if
3993 SSL_read() or SSL_write() is called directly. In that scenario, if the
3994 handshake fails then a fatal error will be returned in the initial function
3995 call. If SSL_read()/SSL_write() is subsequently called by the application
3996 for the same SSL object then it will succeed and the data is passed without
3997 being decrypted/encrypted directly from the SSL/TLS record layer.
3998
3999 In order to exploit this issue an application bug would have to be present
4000 that resulted in a call to SSL_read()/SSL_write() being issued after having
4001 already received a fatal error.

4006 *Matt Caswell*
4007
4008 * rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
4009
4010 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
4011 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
4012 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
4013 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
4014 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
4015 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
4016 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
4017 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
4018 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
4019 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
4020
4021 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
4022 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).

4033
4034 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
4035 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
4036 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
4037 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
4038 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
4039 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
4040 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
4041 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
4042 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
4043 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
4044 key that is shared between multiple clients.
4045
4046 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions

4074 * Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
4075
4076 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
4077 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
4078 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.

4084
4085 * BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
4086
4087 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
4088 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
4089 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
4090 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
4091 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
4092 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
4093 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
4094 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
4095 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
4096 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
4097 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
4098 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
4099 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.

4105
4106 * Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
4107
4108 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
4109 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
4110 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
4111 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
4112 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
4113 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
4114 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
4115 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
4116 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
4117 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
4118 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
4119 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
4120 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
4121 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
4122
4123 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
4124 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
4125 providing reproducible case.

4152 * OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
4153
4154 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
4155 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
4156 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
4157 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
4158 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
4159 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
4160 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.

4176 * OOB write in MDC2_Update()
4177
4178 An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or
4179 through the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker
4180 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous
4181 call to EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check
4182 can overflow resulting in a heap corruption.
4183
4184 The amount of data needed is comparable to SIZE_MAX which is impractical
4185 on most platforms.

4192 * Malformed SHA512 ticket DoS
4193
4194 If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
4195 DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
4196 ultimately crash.
4197
4198 The use of SHA512 in TLS session tickets is comparatively rare as it requires
4199 a custom server callback and ticket lookup mechanism.

4206 * OOB write in BN_bn2dec()
4207
4208 The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
4209 This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
4210 overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
4211 or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
4212 record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.

4218
4219 * OOB read in TS_OBJ_print_bio()
4220
4221 The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
4222 the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
4223 of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are
4224 presented.

4231 * Pointer arithmetic undefined behaviour
4232
4233 Avoid some undefined pointer arithmetic
4234
4235 A common idiom in the codebase is to check limits in the following manner:
4236 "p + len > limit"
4237
4238 Where "p" points to some malloc'd data of SIZE bytes and
4239 limit == p + SIZE
4240
4241 "len" here could be from some externally supplied data (e.g. from a TLS
4242 message).
4243
4244 The rules of C pointer arithmetic are such that "p + len" is only well
4245 defined where len <= SIZE. Therefore the above idiom is actually
4246 undefined behaviour.
4247
4248 For example this could cause problems if some malloc implementation
4249 provides an address for "p" such that "p + len" actually overflows for
4250 values of len that are too big and therefore p + len < limit.

4257 * Constant time flag not preserved in DSA signing
4258
4259 Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in
4260 order to avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA
4261 implementation means that a non-constant time codepath is followed for
4262 certain operations. This has been demonstrated through a cache-timing
4263 attack to be sufficient for an attacker to recover the private DSA key.

4272 * DTLS buffered message DoS
4273
4274 In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order
4275 those messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered
4276 for later use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that
4277 those messages do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake
4278 has been completed. An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to
4279 remain in the buffer when they are no longer required. These messages will
4280 be cleared when the DTLS connection is closed. The default maximum size for
4281 a message is 100k. Therefore the attacker could force an additional 1500k
4282 to be consumed per connection. By opening many simulataneous connections an
4283 attacker could cause a DoS attack through memory exhaustion.

4290 * DTLS replay protection DoS
4291
4292 A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records
4293 that arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before
4294 the MAC for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an
4295 attacker by sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to
4296 decrypt or have a valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means
4297 that all subsequent legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of
4298 service for a specific DTLS connection.

4307 In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result
4308 in OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a
4309 theoretical DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common
4310 platforms.
4311
4312 The messages affected are client certificate, client certificate request
4313 and server certificate. As a result the attack can only be performed
4314 against a client or a server which enables client authentication.

4324
4325 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
4326 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
4327 AES-NI.
4328
4329 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
4330 attack [CVE-2013-0169][]. The padding check was rewritten to be in
4331 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
4332 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
4333 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
4334 bytes.

4341 * Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
4342
4343 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
4344 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
4345 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
4346 corruption.
4347
4348 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
4349 the `PEM_write_bio*` family of functions. These are mainly used within the
4350 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
4351 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
4352 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
4353 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.

4360 * Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
4361
4362 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
4363 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
4364 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
4365 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
4366 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
4367 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
4368 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
4369 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
4370 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
4371 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
4372 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
4373 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
4374 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
4375 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
4376 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
4377 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.

4388 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
4389
4390 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is

4430 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
4431
4432 *Viktor Dukhovni*
4433
4434 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
4435 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
4436 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
4437 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
4438 will need to explicitly call either of:
4439
4440 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
4441 or
4442 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);

4444 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
4445 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
4446 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
4447 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT

4467
4468 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
4469
4470 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
4471 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
4472 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
4473 is configured.
4474
4475 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
4476 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
4477 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
4478 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
4479 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
4480 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
4481 that of a valid user.

4484 *Emilia Käsper*
4485
4486 * Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
4487
4488 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
4489 int value `i`. Later `bn_expand` is called with a value of `i * 4`. For
4490 large values of `i` this can result in `bn_expand` not allocating any
4491 memory because `i * 4` is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
4492 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
4493 of `i`, the calculation `i * 4` could be a positive value smaller than `i`.
4494 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
4495 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
4496 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
4497 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
4498 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
4499
4500 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
4501 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
4502 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
4503 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
4504 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.

4510
4511 * Fix memory issues in `BIO_*printf` functions
4512
4513 The internal `fmtstr` function used in processing a "%s" format string in
4514 the `BIO_*printf` functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
4515 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
4516
4517 Additionally the internal `doapr_outch` function can attempt to write to an
4518 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
4519 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
4520 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
4521 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
4522 also occur.
4523
4524 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
4525 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
4526 is passed to the `BIO_*printf` functions. If applications use these functions
4527 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
4528 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
4529 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
4530 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
4531 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
4532 as command line arguments.
4533
4534 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
4535 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
4536 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.

4566 ### Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
4567
4568 * DH small subgroups
4569
4570 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
4571 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
4572 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
4573 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
4574 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
4575 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
4576 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
4577 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
4578 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
4579 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
4580
4581 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
4582 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
4583 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
4584 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
4585 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
4586
4587 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
4588 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
4589 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
4590 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
4591
4592 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
4593 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
4594
4595 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
4596 [CVE-2016-0701][]
4597
4598 *Matt Caswell*
4599
4600 * SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
4601
4602 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
4603 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
4604 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
4605 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
4606
4607 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
4608 and Sebastian Schinzel.

4612
4613 ### Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
4614
4615 * BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
4616
4617 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
4618 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
4619 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
4620 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
4621 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
4622 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
4623 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
4624 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
4625 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
4626 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
4627 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
4628 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.
4629
4630 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
4631 [CVE-2015-3193][]
4632
4633 *Andy Polyakov*
4634
4635 * Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
4636
4637 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
4638 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
4639 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
4640 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
4641 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
4642 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
4643 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
4644 authentication.
4645
4646 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
4647 [CVE-2015-3194][]
4648
4649 *Stephen Henson*
4650
4651 * X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
4652
4653 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
4654 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
4655 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
4656 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
4657
4658 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
4659 libFuzzer.
4660 [CVE-2015-3195][]
4661
4662 *Stephen Henson*
4663
4664 * Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
4665 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
4666 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
4667 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.

4675
4676 ### Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
4677
4678 * Alternate chains certificate forgery
4679
4680 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
4681 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
4682 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
4683 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
4684 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
4685 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
4686
4687 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
4688 (Google/BoringSSL).

4690 *Matt Caswell*
4691
4692 ### Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
4693
4694 * Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
4695 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
4696 restored.
4697
4698 *Matt Caswell*
4699
4700 ### Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
4701
4702 * Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
4703
4704 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
4705 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
4706 field.
4707
4708 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
4709 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
4710 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
4711 client authentication enabled.
4712
4713 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
4714 [CVE-2015-1788][]
4715
4716 *Andy Polyakov*
4717
4718 * Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
4719
4720 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
4721 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
4722 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
4723 time string.
4724
4725 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
4726 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
4727 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
4728 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
4729 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
4730 callbacks.
4731
4732 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
4733 independently by Hanno Böck.
4734 [CVE-2015-1789][]
4735
4736 *Emilia Käsper*
4737
4738 * PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
4739
4740 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
4741 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
4742 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
4743
4744 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
4745 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
4746 servers are not affected.
4747
4748 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
4749 [CVE-2015-1790][]
4750
4751 *Emilia Käsper*
4752
4753 * CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
4754
4755 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
4756 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
4757 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
4758 the CMS code.
4759 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
4760 [CVE-2015-1792][]
4761
4762 *Stephen Henson*
4763
4764 * Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
4765
4766 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
4767 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
4768 a double free of the ticket data.
4769 [CVE-2015-1791][]
4770
4771 *Matt Caswell*
4772
4773 * Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
4774 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
4775 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
4776

4778
4779 ### Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
4780
4781 * ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
4782
4783 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
4784 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
4785 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
4786
4787 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
4788 University.
4789 [CVE-2015-0291][]
4790
4791 *Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell*
4792
4793 * Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
4794
4795 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
4796 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
4797 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
4798 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
4799 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
4800 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
4801 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
4802 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
4803
4804 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
4805 [CVE-2015-0290][]
4806
4807 *Matt Caswell*
4808
4809 * Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
4810
4811 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
4812 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
4813 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
4814 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
4815 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
4816 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
4817 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
4818 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
4819 server.
4820
4821 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
4822 [CVE-2015-0207][]
4823
4824 *Matt Caswell*
4825
4826 * Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
4827
4828 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
4829 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
4830 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
4831 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
4832 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
4833 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
4834 [CVE-2015-0286][]
4835
4836 *Stephen Henson*
4837
4838 * Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
4839
4840 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
4841 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
4842 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
4843 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
4844 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
4845 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
4846 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
4847
4848 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
4849 [CVE-2015-0208][]
4850
4851 *Stephen Henson*
4852
4853 * ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
4854
4855 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
4856 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
4857 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
4858
4859 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
4860 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
4861 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
4862 not affected.
4863 [CVE-2015-0287][]
4864
4865 *Stephen Henson*
4866
4867 * PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
4868
4869 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
4870 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
4871 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
4872
4873 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
4874 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
4875 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.

4881
4882 * DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
4883
4884 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
4885 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
4886 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
4887
4888 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
4889 (OpenSSL development team).

4891
4892 *Emilia Käsper*
4893
4894 * Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
4895
4896 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
4897 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
4898 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
4899 [CVE-2015-1787][]
4900
4901 *Matt Caswell*
4902
4903 * Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
4904
4905 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
4906 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
4907 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
4908 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
4909 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
4910 SSL_client_methodv23)
4911 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
4912 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
4913
4914 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
4915 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
4916 output may be predictable.
4917
4918 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
4919 succeed on an unpatched platform:
4920
4921 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA

4926 * Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
4927
4928 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
4929 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
4930 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
4931 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
4932 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
4933 sources. This scenario is considered rare.

4955 ### Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
4956
4957 * Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
4958 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
4959 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
4960 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
4961 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
4962 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
4963
4964 *Andy Polyakov*
4965
4966 * Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
4967 (other platforms pending).
4968

4974 *Rob Stradling*
4975
4976 * Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
4977 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
4978 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
4979
4980 *Bodo Moeller*
4981
4982 * Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
4983 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
4984 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
4985 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.

5013 *Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)*
5014
5015 * Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
5016 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
5017 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
5018 for TLS encrypt.
5019
5020 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
5021
5022 *Andy Polyakov*
5023
5024 * Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
5025 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
5026 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
5027
5028 *Steve Henson*

5039
5040 * Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
5041 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
5042 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
5043 algorithms and include tests cases.

5053 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
5054
5055 *Steve Henson*
5056

5096 * Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
5097 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
5098 CRLs using the OCSP API.
5099
5100 *Steve Henson*
5101
5102 * Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
5103
5104 *Steve Henson*
5105
5106 * `SSL_CONF*` functions. These provide a common framework for application
5107 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
5108
5109 *Steve Henson*
5110
5111 * SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
5112 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
5113 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
5114 tracing.
5115
5116 *Steve Henson*
5117
5118 * New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
5119 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
5120
5121 *Steve Henson*
5122
5123 * New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
5124 OID NID.
5125
5126 *Steve Henson*
5127
5128 * Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
5129 client to OpenSSL.
5130
5131 *Steve Henson*
5132
5133 * New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
5134 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
5135 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
5136 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
5137
5138 *Steve Henson*
5139
5140 * New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
5141 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
5142
5143 *Steve Henson*
5144
5145 * Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
5146 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
5147 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
5148 comparison.
5149
5150 *Steve Henson*
5151
5152 * If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
5153 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
5154 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
5155 use the certificate.
5156
5157 *Steve Henson*
5158
5159 * If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
5160
5161 *Steve Henson*
5162
5163 * Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
5164 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
5165 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
5166 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
5167 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
5168 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
5169 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
5170
5171 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
5172 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
5173
5174 *Steve Henson*
5175
5176 * New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
5177 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
5178 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
5179
5180 *Steve Henson*
5181
5182 * New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
5183 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
5184 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
5185 supported signature algorithms.
5186
5187 *Steve Henson*
5188
5189 * Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
5190
5191 *Steve Henson*
5192
5193 * Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
5194 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
5195 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
5196 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
5197 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
5198 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
5199 certificate and specify the whole chain.
5200
5201 *Steve Henson*
5202
5203 * Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
5204 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
5205 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
5206 to have similar checks in it.
5207
5208 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
5209 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
5210 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
5211 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
5212 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
5213
5214 *Steve Henson*
5215
5216 * Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
5217 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
5218 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
5219 shared signature algorithms.
5220
5221 *Steve Henson*
5222
5223 * Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
5224 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
5225 to support them.
5226
5227 *Steve Henson*
5228
5229 * New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
5230 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
5231 it couldn't be removed.
5232
5233 *Steve Henson*
5234
5235 * Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
5236 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
5237
5238 *Steve Henson*
5239
5240 * Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
5241 functions. Add manual page.
5242
5243 *Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)*
5244
5245 * New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
5246 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
5247 a certificate.
5248
5249 *Steve Henson*
5250
5251 * Fix OCSP checking.
5252
5253 *Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie*
5254
5255 * Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
5256 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
5257 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
5258 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
5259 utility) or reject.
5260
5261 *Steve Henson*
5262
5263 * Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
5264 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
5265
5266 *Steve Henson*
5267
5268 * MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
5269 platform support for Linux and Android.
5270
5271 *Andy Polyakov*
5272
5273 * Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
5274
5275 *Andy Polyakov*
5276
5277 * Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
5278 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
5279 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
5280 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
5281 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
5282
5283 *Steve Henson*
5284
5285 * Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
5286 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
5287 the new parameter format automatically.
5288
5289 *Steve Henson*
5290
5291 * Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
5292 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
5293
5294 *Steve Henson*
5295
5296 * Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
5297
5298 *Steve Henson*
5299
5300 * Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
5301 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
5302 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
5303 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
5304 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
5305
5306 *Steve Henson*
5307
5308 * Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
5309 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
5310 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
5311 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
5312 to set list of supported curves.
5313
5314 *Steve Henson*
5315
5316 * New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
5317 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
5318 to print out received values.
5319
5320 *Steve Henson*
5321
5322 * Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
5323 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
5324 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
5325
5326 *Steve Henson*
5327
5328 * Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
5329 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
5330
5331 *Steve Henson*
5332
5333 * Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
5334 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
5335
5336 *Steve Henson*
5337
5338 * Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
5339 certificates.
5340
5341 *Steve Henson*
5342
5343 * New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
5344 the certificate.
5345 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
5346 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
5347 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.

5353
5354 * OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
5355
5356 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
5357 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
5358 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
5359 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
5360 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
5361 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
5362 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.

5378 * OOB write in MDC2_Update()
5379
5380 An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or
5381 through the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker
5382 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous
5383 call to EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check
5384 can overflow resulting in a heap corruption.
5385
5386 The amount of data needed is comparable to SIZE_MAX which is impractical
5387 on most platforms.

5393
5394 * Malformed SHA512 ticket DoS
5395
5396 If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
5397 DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
5398 ultimately crash.
5399
5400 The use of SHA512 in TLS session tickets is comparatively rare as it requires
5401 a custom server callback and ticket lookup mechanism.

5407
5408 * OOB write in BN_bn2dec()
5409
5410 The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
5411 This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
5412 overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
5413 or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
5414 record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.

5419 *Stephen Henson*
5420
5421 * OOB read in TS_OBJ_print_bio()
5422
5423 The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
5424 the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
5425 of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are
5426 presented.

5432
5433 * Pointer arithmetic undefined behaviour
5434
5435 Avoid some undefined pointer arithmetic
5436
5437 A common idiom in the codebase is to check limits in the following manner:
5438 "p + len > limit"
5439
5440 Where "p" points to some malloc'd data of SIZE bytes and
5441 limit == p + SIZE
5442
5443 "len" here could be from some externally supplied data (e.g. from a TLS
5444 message).
5445
5446 The rules of C pointer arithmetic are such that "p + len" is only well
5447 defined where len <= SIZE. Therefore the above idiom is actually
5448 undefined behaviour.
5449
5450 For example this could cause problems if some malloc implementation
5451 provides an address for "p" such that "p + len" actually overflows for
5452 values of len that are too big and therefore p + len < limit.

5457 *Matt Caswell*
5458
5459 * Constant time flag not preserved in DSA signing
5460
5461 Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in
5462 order to avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA
5463 implementation means that a non-constant time codepath is followed for
5464 certain operations. This has been demonstrated through a cache-timing
5465 attack to be sufficient for an attacker to recover the private DSA key.
5466
5467 This issue was reported by César Pereida (Aalto University), Billy Brumley
5468 (Tampere University of Technology), and Yuval Yarom (The University of
5469 Adelaide and NICTA).

5473
5474 * DTLS buffered message DoS
5475
5476 In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order
5477 those messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered
5478 for later use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that
5479 those messages do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake
5480 has been completed. An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to
5481 remain in the buffer when they are no longer required. These messages will
5482 be cleared when the DTLS connection is closed. The default maximum size for
5483 a message is 100k. Therefore the attacker could force an additional 1500k
5484 to be consumed per connection. By opening many simulataneous connections an
5485 attacker could cause a DoS attack through memory exhaustion.
5486
5487 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Quan Luo.

5489
5490 *Matt Caswell*
5491
5492 * DTLS replay protection DoS
5493
5494 A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records
5495 that arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before
5496 the MAC for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an
5497 attacker by sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to
5498 decrypt or have a valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means
5499 that all subsequent legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of
5500 service for a specific DTLS connection.

5505 *Matt Caswell*
5506
5507 * Certificate message OOB reads
5508
5509 In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result
5510 in OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a
5511 theoretical DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common
5512 platforms.
5513
5514 The messages affected are client certificate, client certificate request
5515 and server certificate. As a result the attack can only be performed
5516 against a client or a server which enables client authentication.

5525 * Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
5526
5527 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
5528 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
5529 AES-NI.
5530
5531 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
5532 attack [CVE-2013-0169][]. The padding check was rewritten to be in
5533 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
5534 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
5535 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
5536 bytes.

5542
5543 * Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
5544
5545 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
5546 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
5547 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
5548 corruption.
5549
5550 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarly used by
5551 the `PEM_write_bio*` family of functions. These are mainly used within the
5552 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
5553 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
5554 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
5555 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.

5559
5560 *Matt Caswell*
5561
5562 * Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
5563
5564 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
5565 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
5566 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
5567 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
5568 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
5569 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
5570 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
5571 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
5572 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
5573 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
5574 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
5575 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
5576 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
5577 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
5578 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
5579 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.

5587
5588 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
5589 a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
5590 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
5591
5592 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
5593 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.

5638 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
5639 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
5640 will need to explicitly call either of:
5641
5642 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
5643 or
5644 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
5645
5646 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
5647 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
5648 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
5649 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
5650 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.

5655 * Fix a double-free in DSA code
5656
5657 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
5658 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
5659 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
5660 considered rare.

5668 * Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
5669
5670 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
5671
5672 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
5673 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
5674 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
5675 is configured.
5676
5677 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
5678 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
5679 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
5680 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
5681 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
5682 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
5683 that of a valid user.

5686 *Emilia Käsper*
5687
5688 * Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
5689
5690 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
5691 int value `i`. Later `bn_expand` is called with a value of `i * 4`. For
5692 large values of `i` this can result in `bn_expand` not allocating any
5693 memory because `i * 4` is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
5694 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
5695 of `i`, the calculation `i * 4` could be a positive value smaller than `i`.
5696 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
5697 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
5698 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
5699 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
5700 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
5701
5702 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
5703 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
5704 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
5705 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
5706 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.

5713 * Fix memory issues in `BIO_*printf` functions
5714
5715 The internal `fmtstr` function used in processing a "%s" format string in
5716 the `BIO_*printf` functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
5717 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
5718
5719 Additionally the internal `doapr_outch` function can attempt to write to an
5720 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
5721 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
5722 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
5723 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
5724 also occur.
5725
5726 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
5727 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
5728 is passed to the `BIO_*printf` functions. If applications use these functions
5729 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
5730 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
5731 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
5732 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
5733 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
5734 as command line arguments.
5735
5736 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
5737 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
5738 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.

5842 During certificate verfification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
5843 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
5844 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
5845 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
5846 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf

6153 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
6154 the OpenSSL core team.
6155 [CVE-2014-3570][]
6156
6157 *Andy Polyakov*
6158
6159 * Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
6160 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
6161 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
6162 sanity and breaks all known clients.
6163
6164 *David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper*
6165
6166 * Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
6167 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
6168 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
6169
6170 *Emilia Käsper*
6171
6172 * Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
6173 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
6174 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
6175 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
6176 announced in the initial ServerHello.
6177
6178 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
6179 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
6180 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
6181
6182 *Emilia Käsper*
6183
6184 ### Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
6185
6186 * SRTP Memory Leak.
6187
6188 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
6189 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
6190 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
6191 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
6192 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
6193 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
6194 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
6195
6196 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
6197 [CVE-2014-3513][]
6198
6199 *OpenSSL team*
6200
6201 * Session Ticket Memory Leak.
6202
6203 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
6204 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
6205 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
6206 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
6207 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
6208 attack.
6209 [CVE-2014-3567][]
6210
6211 *Steve Henson*
6212
6213 * Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
6214
6215 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
6216 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
6217 configured to send them.
6218 [CVE-2014-3568][]
6219
6220 *Akamai and the OpenSSL team*
6221
6222 * Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
6223 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
6224 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
6225 [CVE-2014-3566][]
6226
6227 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller*
6228
6229 * Add additional DigestInfo checks.
6230
6231 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
6232 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
6233 DigestInfo structures.
6234
6235 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
6236
6237 *Steve Henson*
6238
6239 ### Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
6240
6241 * Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
6242 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
6243 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
6244
6245 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
6246 Group for discovering this issue.
6247 [CVE-2014-3512][]
6248
6249 *Steve Henson*
6250
6251 * A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
6252 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
6253 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
6254 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
6255 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
6256
6257 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
6258 researching this issue.
6259 [CVE-2014-3511][]
6260
6261 *David Benjamin*
6262
6263 * OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
6264 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
6265 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
6266 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
6267
6268 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
6269 issue.
6270 [CVE-2014-3510][]
6271
6272 *Emilia Käsper*
6273
6274 * By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
6275 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
6276 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
6277 [CVE-2014-3507][]
6278
6279 *Adam Langley*
6280
6281 * An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
6282 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
6283 Denial of Service attack.
6284 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
6285 [CVE-2014-3506][]
6286
6287 *Adam Langley*
6288
6289 * An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
6290 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
6291 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
6292 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
6293 this issue.
6294 [CVE-2014-3505][]
6295
6296 *Adam Langley*
6297
6298 * If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
6299 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
6300 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
6301
6302 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
6303 issue.
6304 [CVE-2014-3509][]
6305
6306 *Gabor Tyukasz*
6307
6308 * A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
6309 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
6310 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
6311 Denial of Service attack.
6312
6313 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
6314 discovering and researching this issue.
6315 [CVE-2014-5139][]
6316
6317 *Steve Henson*
6318
6319 * A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
6320 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
6321 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
6322 output to the attacker.
6323
6324 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
6325 [CVE-2014-3508][]
6326
6327 *Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson*
6328
6329 * Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
6330 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
6331 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
6332
6333 *Bodo Moeller*
6334
6335 ### Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
6336
6337 * Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
6338 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
6339 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
6340
6341 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
6342 researching this issue. [CVE-2014-0224][]
6343
6344 *KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson*
6345
6346 * Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
6347 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
6348 in a DoS attack.
6349
6350 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
6351 [CVE-2014-0221][]
6352
6353 *Imre Rad, Steve Henson*
6354
6355 * Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
6356 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
6357 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
6358 code on a vulnerable client or server.
6359
6360 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. [CVE-2014-0195][]
6361
6362 *Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson*
6363
6364 * Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
6365 are subject to a denial of service attack.
6366
6367 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
6368 this issue. [CVE-2014-3470][]
6369

6372 * Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
6373 compilation flags.
6374
6375 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
6376
6377 * Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
6378 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
6379
6380 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
6381
6382 * Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.

6385
6386 ### Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
6387
6388 * A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
6389 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
6390 server.
6391
6392 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
6393 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
6394 preparing the fix [CVE-2014-0160][]
6395
6396 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller*
6397
6398 * Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
6399 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
6400 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
6401 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140>

6406 *Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger*
6407
6408 * TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
6409
6410 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
6411 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
6412 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
6413 is at least 512 bytes long.
6414
6415 *Adam Langley, Steve Henson*
6416
6417 ### Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
6418
6419 * Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
6420 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
6421 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
6422 [CVE-2013-4353][]
6423
6424 * Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
6425 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
6426 to be resent. [CVE-2013-6450][]
6427
6428 *Steve Henson*
6429
6430 * Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
6431 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
6432 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
6433 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
6434 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
6435 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.

6437 *Rob Stradling, Adam Langley*
6438
6439 ### Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
6440
6441 * Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
6442 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
6443
6444 *Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson*
6445
6446 ### Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
6447
6448 * Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.

6515 *Steve Henson*
6516
6517 ### Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
6518
6519 * OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
6520 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
6521 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
6522 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
6523 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
6524 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
6525 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
6526 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
6527 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
6528 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
6529
6530 *Steve Henson*
6531
6532 * In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
6533 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
6534 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
6535 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
6536 above, it's not sufficient to pass `SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1`, one has to pass
6537 `SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2`. This applies to
6538 client side.
6539
6540 *Andy Polyakov*
6541
6542 ### Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]

6544 * Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
6545 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
6546 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
6547
6548 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
6549 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
6550 [CVE-2012-2110][]
6551
6552 *Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team*
6553
6554 * Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
6555
6556 *Adam Langley*
6557
6558 * Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
6559 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
6560
6561 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
6562 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
6563 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
6564 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
6565 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
6566 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
6567 Most broken servers should now work.
6568 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
6569 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.

6576
6577 ### Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
6578
6579 * Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
6580 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
6581
6582 *Steve Henson*
6583
6584 * The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
6585 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
6586 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
6587 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
6588 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
6589
6590 *Steve Henson*
6591
6592 * Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
6593 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
6594 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
6595 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
6596 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
6597
6598 *Steve Henson*
6599
6600 * Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.

6611
6612 * Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
6613
6614 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
6615 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
6616 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
6617 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
6618 - s390x: z196 support;
6619 - `*`: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
6620
6621 *Andy Polyakov*
6622
6623 * Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
6624 (removal of unnecessary code)
6625

6627
6628 * Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.

6631
6632 * Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
6633

6638 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
6639 by Google.
6640
6641 *Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie*
6642
6643 * Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
6644 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
6645 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type `__uint128_t` is
6646 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).

6660
6661 *Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)*
6662
6663 * Use type ossl_ssize_t instead of ssize_t which isn't available on
6664 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
6665 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
6666
6667 *Steve Henson*
6668
6669 * New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
6670 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
6671 particular PSS.
6672
6673 *Steve Henson*
6674
6675 * Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
6676 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
6677 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
6678
6679 *Steve Henson*
6680
6681 * Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
6682 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
6683 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
6684 the appropriate parameters.
6685
6686 *Steve Henson*
6687
6688 * Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
6689 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
6690 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
6691 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
6692 against a number of sample certificates.
6693
6694 *Steve Henson*
6695
6696 * Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
6697
6698 *Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>*
6699
6700 * Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
6701 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
6702
6703 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
6704 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
6705 parameters r, s.
6706
6707 *Steve Henson*
6708
6709 * Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
6710 RFC3211.
6711
6712 *Steve Henson*
6713
6714 * Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
6715 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
6716 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
6717 password based CMS).
6718
6719 *Steve Henson*
6720
6721 * Session-handling fixes:
6722 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
6723 but also support Session Tickets.
6724 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
6725 presented a ticket with an expired session.
6726 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
6727 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
6728 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
6729
6730 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)*
6731
6732 * Fix PSK session representation.
6733
6734 *Bodo Moeller*
6735
6736 * Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
6737
6738 This work was sponsored by Intel.
6739
6740 *Andy Polyakov*
6741
6742 * Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
6743 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
6744 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
6745 RFC5289. Generalise some `AES*` cipherstrings to include GCM and
6746 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
6747
6748 *Steve Henson*
6749
6750 * Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
6751 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
6752
6753 *Steve Henson*
6754
6755 * Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
6756 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
6757 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
6758
6759 *Steve Henson*
6760
6761 * For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
6762 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
6763 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
6764 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
6765
6766 *Steve Henson*
6767
6768 * Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
6769 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
6770 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
6771
6772 *Steve Henson*
6773
6774 * Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
6775
6776 *Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson*
6777
6778 * Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
6779
6780 *Steve Henson*
6781
6782 * Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
6783 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
6784
6785 *Steve Henson*
6786
6787 * New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
6788
6789 *Steve Henson*
6790
6791 * Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
6792 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
6793
6794 *Steve Henson*
6795
6796 * Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
6797 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
6798
6799 *Steve Henson*
6800
6801 * Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
6802
6803 *Steve Henson*
6804
6805 * Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
6806 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
6807 to use them can use the `private_*` version instead.
6808
6809 *Steve Henson*
6810
6811 * Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
6812
6813 *Steve Henson*
6814
6815 * Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
6816
6817 *Steve Henson*
6818
6819 * Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
6820 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
6821
6822 *Steve Henson*
6823
6824 * Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
6825 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
6826 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
6827
6828 *Steve Henson*
6829
6830 * Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
6831
6832 *Steve Henson*
6833
6834 * Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
6835 and enable MD5.
6836
6837 *Steve Henson*
6838
6839 * Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
6840 FIPS modules versions.
6841
6842 *Steve Henson*
6843
6844 * Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
6845 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
6846 until after the certificate request message is received.
6847
6848 *Steve Henson*
6849
6850 * Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
6851 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
6852 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
6853 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
6854
6855 *Steve Henson*
6856
6857 * Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
6858 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
6859 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
6860 support yet and no support for client certificates.
6861
6862 *Steve Henson*
6863
6864 * Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
6865 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
6866 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
6867 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
6868 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
6869 and version checking.
6870
6871 *Steve Henson*
6872
6873 * New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
6874 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
6875 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
6876 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
6877
6878 *Steve Henson*
6879
6880 * A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
6881 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
6882 *Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
6883 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
6884 Ben Laurie*
6885
6886 * Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
6887
6888 *Steve Henson*
6889
6890 * Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
6891 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
6892
6893 *Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>*
6894
6895 * Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
6896 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
6897 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
6898
6899 *Steve Henson*
6900
6901 * Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
6902
6903 *Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson*
6904
6905 * Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
6906 a few changes are required:
6907
6908 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
6909 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
6910 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
6911 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
6912 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.

6918
6919 ### Changes between 1.0.0s and 1.0.0t [3 Dec 2015]
6920
6921 * X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
6922
6923 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
6924 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
6925 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
6926 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
6927
6928 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
6929 libFuzzer.
6930 [CVE-2015-3195][]
6931
6932 *Stephen Henson*
6933
6934 * Race condition handling PSK identify hint
6935
6936 If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then
6937 the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
6938 result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the
6939 identify hint data.
6940 [CVE-2015-3196][]
6941
6942 *Stephen Henson*
6943
6944 ### Changes between 1.0.0r and 1.0.0s [11 Jun 2015]
6945
6946 * Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
6947
6948 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
6949 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
6950 field.
6951
6952 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
6953 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
6954 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
6955 client authentication enabled.
6956
6957 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
6958 [CVE-2015-1788][]
6959
6960 *Andy Polyakov*
6961
6962 * Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
6963
6964 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
6965 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
6966 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
6967 time string.
6968
6969 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
6970 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
6971 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
6972 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
6973 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
6974 callbacks.
6975
6976 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
6977 independently by Hanno Böck.

6979
6980 *Emilia Käsper*
6981
6982 * PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
6983
6984 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
6985 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
6986 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
6987
6988 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
6989 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
6990 servers are not affected.
6991
6992 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
6993 [CVE-2015-1790][]
6994
6995 *Emilia Käsper*
6996
6997 * CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
6998
6999 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
7000 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
7001 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
7002 the CMS code.
7003 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
7004 [CVE-2015-1792][]
7005
7006 *Stephen Henson*
7007
7008 * Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
7009
7010 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
7011 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
7012 a double free of the ticket data.

7016
7017 ### Changes between 1.0.0q and 1.0.0r [19 Mar 2015]
7018
7019 * Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
7020
7021 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
7022 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
7023 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
7024 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
7025 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
7026 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
7027 [CVE-2015-0286][]
7028
7029 *Stephen Henson*
7030
7031 * ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
7032
7033 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
7034 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
7035 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
7036
7037 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
7038 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
7039 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
7040 not affected.
7041 [CVE-2015-0287][]
7042
7043 *Stephen Henson*
7044
7045 * PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
7046
7047 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
7048 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
7049 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
7050
7051 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
7052 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
7053 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
7054
7055 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).

7057
7058 *Emilia Käsper*
7059
7060 * DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
7061
7062 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
7063 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
7064 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
7065
7066 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
7067 (OpenSSL development team).

7069
7070 *Emilia Käsper*
7071
7072 * Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
7073
7074 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
7075 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
7076 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
7077 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
7078 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
7079 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
7080
7081 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
7082 commit 517073cd4b.

7084
7085 *Matt Caswell*
7086
7087 * X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
7088
7089 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
7090 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.

7107 ### Changes between 1.0.0o and 1.0.0p [8 Jan 2015]
7108
7109 * Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
7110 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
7111 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
7112 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
7113 [CVE-2014-3571][]
7114
7115 *Steve Henson*
7116
7117 * Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
7118 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
7119 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
7120 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
7121 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
7122 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
7123 [CVE-2015-0206][]
7124
7125 *Matt Caswell*
7126
7127 * Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
7128 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
7129 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
7130 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.

7141
7142 *Steve Henson*
7143
7144 * Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
7145 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
7146 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
7147 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
7148 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
7149 INRIA or reporting this issue.
7150 [CVE-2015-0204][]
7151
7152 *Steve Henson*
7153
7154 * Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
7155 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
7156 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
7157 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
7158 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
7159 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
7160 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
7161 this issue.

7166 * Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
7167 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
7168 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
7169 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
7170 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial

7178 * Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
7179
7180 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
7181 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
7182 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
7183 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
7184 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
7185
7186 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
7187
7188 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
7189 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
7190
7191 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
7192
7193 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
7194 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
7195 errors for some broken certificates.

7199 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
7200
7201 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
7202 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
7203
7204 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
7205 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
7206 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
7207 (negative or with leading zeroes).
7208
7209 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
7210 of the OpenSSL core team.

7214 *Steve Henson*
7215
7216 ### Changes between 1.0.0n and 1.0.0o [15 Oct 2014]
7217
7218 * Session Ticket Memory Leak.
7219
7220 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
7221 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
7222 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
7223 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
7224 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
7225 attack.
7226 [CVE-2014-3567][]
7227
7228 *Steve Henson*
7229
7230 * Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
7231
7232 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
7233 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
7234 configured to send them.
7235 [CVE-2014-3568][]
7236
7237 *Akamai and the OpenSSL team*
7238
7239 * Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
7240 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
7241 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
7242 [CVE-2014-3566][]
7243
7244 *Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller*
7245
7246 * Add additional DigestInfo checks.
7247
7248 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
7249 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
7250 DigestInfo structures.
7251
7252 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.

7255
7256 ### Changes between 1.0.0m and 1.0.0n [6 Aug 2014]
7257
7258 * OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
7259 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
7260 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
7261 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
7262
7263 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
7264 issue.
7265 [CVE-2014-3510][]
7266
7267 *Emilia Käsper*
7268
7269 * By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
7270 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
7271 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
7272 [CVE-2014-3507][]
7273
7274 *Adam Langley*
7275
7276 * An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
7277 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
7278 Denial of Service attack.
7279 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
7280 [CVE-2014-3506][]
7281
7282 *Adam Langley*
7283
7284 * An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
7285 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
7286 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
7287 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
7288 this issue.
7289 [CVE-2014-3505][]
7290
7291 *Adam Langley*
7292
7293 * If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
7294 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
7295 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
7296
7297 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
7298 issue.
7299 [CVE-2014-3509][]
7300
7301 *Gabor Tyukasz*
7302
7303 * A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
7304 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
7305 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
7306 output to the attacker.

7308 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
7309 [CVE-2014-3508][]
7310
7311 *Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson*
7312
7313 * Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
7314 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
7315 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
7316
7317 *Bodo Moeller*
7318
7319 ### Changes between 1.0.0l and 1.0.0m [5 Jun 2014]
7320
7321 * Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
7322 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
7323 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
7324
7325 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
7326 researching this issue. [CVE-2014-0224][]
7327
7328 *KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson*
7329
7330 * Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
7331 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
7332 in a DoS attack.
7333
7334 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
7335 [CVE-2014-0221][]
7336
7337 *Imre Rad, Steve Henson*
7338
7339 * Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
7340 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
7341 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
7342 code on a vulnerable client or server.
7343
7344 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. [CVE-2014-0195][]
7345
7346 *Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson*
7347
7348 * Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
7349 are subject to a denial of service attack.
7350
7351 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
7352 this issue. [CVE-2014-3470][]
7353
7354 *Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson*

7357 compilation flags.
7358
7359 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
7360
7361 * Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
7362 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
7363
7364 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
7365
7366 * Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
7367
7368 *mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>*
7369
7370 * Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
7371 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
7372 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
7373 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140>

7378 *Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger*
7379
7380 ### Changes between 1.0.0k and 1.0.0l [6 Jan 2014]
7381
7382 * Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
7383 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
7384 to be resent. [CVE-2013-6450][]
7385
7386 *Steve Henson*
7387
7388 * Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
7389 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
7390 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
7391 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
7392 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
7393 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
7394
7395 *Rob Stradling, Adam Langley*
7396
7397 ### Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
7398
7399 * Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
7400
7401 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
7402 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
7403 at: <http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/>
7404
7405 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
7406 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
7407 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
7408 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
7409 [CVE-2013-0169][]
7410
7411 *Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson*
7412
7413 * Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
7414 This fixes a DoS attack. [CVE-2013-0166][]
7415
7416 *Steve Henson*
7417
7418 * Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
7419 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
7420 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
7421 See <http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836>.
7422 (This is a backport)

7424 *Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>*
7425
7426 * Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
7427
7428 *Steve Henson*
7429
7430 ### Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
7431
7432 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
7433 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
7434
7435 * Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
7436 to fix DoS attack.
7437
7438 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
7439 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
7440 [CVE-2012-2333][]
7441
7442 *Steve Henson*
7443
7444 * Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
7445 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
7446
7447 *Steve Henson*
7448
7449 ### Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
7450
7451 * Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
7452 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
7453 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
7454

7459 *Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team*
7460
7461 ### Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
7462
7463 * Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
7464 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
7465 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
7466 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
7467 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
7468 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
7469 an MMA defence is not necessary.
7470 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
7471 this issue. [CVE-2012-0884][]
7472
7473 *Steve Henson*
7474
7475 * Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
7476 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
7477 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.

7481 ### Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
7482
7483 * Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
7484 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
7485 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
7486 preparing a fix. [CVE-2012-0050][]

7488 *Antonio Martin*
7489
7490 ### Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
7491
7492 * Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
7493 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
7494 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
7495 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
7496 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
7497 paper describing this attack can be found at:
7498 <http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf>
7499 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
7500 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
7501 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
7502 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
7503 for preparing the fix. [CVE-2011-4108][]

7508 [CVE-2011-4576][]
7509
7510 *Adam Langley (Google)*
7511
7512 * Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George

7520 *Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>*
7521
7522 * Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
7523 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
7524 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. [CVE-2011-4577][]
7525
7526 *Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>*
7527
7528 * Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.

7531
7532 * Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
7533
7534 *Adam Langley (Google)*
7535
7536 * Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
7537
7538 *Emilia Käsper (Google)*
7539
7540 * Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
7541 interpretations of the `..._len` fields).
7542
7543 *Adam Langley (Google)*
7544
7545 * Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
7546 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
7547 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
7548
7549 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
7550 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
7551 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
7552 the last update always remained unused).
7553
7554 *Emilia Käsper (Google)*
7555
7556 * In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
7557
7558 *Bob Buckholz (Google)*
7559
7560 ### Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
7561
7562 * Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
7563 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. [CVE-2011-3207][]
7564
7565 *Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>*
7566
7567 * Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
7568 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. [CVE-2011-3210][]
7569
7570 *Adam Langley (Google)*
7571
7572 * Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
7573
7574 *Bodo Moeller*
7575
7576 * Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
7577 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
7578 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
7579
7580 *Steve Henson*
7581
7582 * Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
7583 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
7584 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf>
7585
7586 *Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri*
7587
7588 ### Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
7589
7590 * Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
7591
7592 *Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)*
7593
7594 * Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
7595 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
7596 ambiguous.
7597
7598 *Steve Henson*
7599
7600 ### Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
7601
7602 * Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
7603 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
7604 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
7605
7606 *Steve Henson*
7607
7608 * Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
7609 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
7610 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
7611
7612 *Ben Laurie*
7613
7614 ### Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
7615
7616 * Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
7617 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
7618 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
7619
7620 *Steve Henson*
7621
7622 * Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
7623 a DLL.
7624
7625 *Steve Henson*
7626
7627 ### Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
7628
7629 * Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
7630 [CVE-2010-1633][]
7631
7632 *Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>*
7633
7634 ### Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
7635
7636 * Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
7637 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
7638 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
7639
7640 *Steve Henson*
7641
7642 * Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
7643
7644 *Steve Henson*
7645
7646 * Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
7647 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
7648
7649 *Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>*
7650
7651 * Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
7652 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
7653 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
7654
7655 *Steve Henson*
7656
7657 * Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
7658 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
7659
7660 *Steve Henson*
7661
7662 * Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
7663 some responders need this.
7664
7665 *Steve Henson*
7666
7667 * The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
7668 correctly.
7669
7670 *Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>*
7671
7672 * Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
7673 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
7674 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
7675
7676 *Steve Henson*
7677
7678 * Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
7679
7680 *Steve Henson*
7681
7682 * In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
7683 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
7684 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
7685 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
7686 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
7687 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
7688 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
7689 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
7690
7691 *Steve Henson*
7692
7693 * Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
7694 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
7695 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
7696
7697 *Guenter <lists@gknw.net>*
7698
7699 * Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
7700
7701 *Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>*
7702
7703 * Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
7704 be used on C++.
7705
7706 *Steve Henson*
7707
7708 * Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
7709 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
7710 `EVP_MD_do_all*()` and `EVP_CIPHER_do_all*()` to include the name a digest
7711 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
7712 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
7713 attempting to work them out.
7714
7715 *Steve Henson*
7716
7717 * If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
7718 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
7719 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
7720 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
7721
7722 *Steve Henson*
7723
7724 * Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
7725 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
7726 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
7727 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
7728 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
7729
7730 *Steve Henson*
7731
7732 * Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
7733 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
7734 you can do:
7735
7736 openssl sha256 foo
7737
7738 as well as:
7739
7740 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
7741
7742 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
7743
7744 *Steve Henson*
7745
7746 * Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
7747
7748 *Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>*
7749
7750 * Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
7751
7752 *Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson*
7753
7754 * Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
7755 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
7756 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
7757 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
7758 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
7759
7760 *Steve Henson*
7761
7762 * Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
7763 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
7764 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
7765
7766 *Steve Henson*
7767
7768 * Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
7769 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
7770
7771 *Steve Henson*
7772
7773 * Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
7774
7775 *Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>*
7776
7777 * Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
7778 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
7779
7780 *Steve Henson*
7781
7782 * Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
7783
7784 *Ben Laurie*
7785
7786 * Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
7787 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
7788 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
7789 CONF_VALUE.
7790
7791 *Ben Laurie*
7792
7793 * New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
7794 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
7795 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
7796 as the year 2038 bug. New `*_adj()` functions for ASN1 time structures
7797 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
7798 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
7799
7800 *Steve Henson*
7801
7802 * Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
7803 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
7804
7805 This work was sponsored by Google.
7806
7807 *Steve Henson*
7808
7809 * Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
7810 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
7811 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
7812 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
7813 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
7814 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
7815 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
7816 default.
7817
7818 This work was sponsored by Google.
7819
7820 *Steve Henson*
7821
7822 * Support for freshest CRL extension.
7823
7824 This work was sponsored by Google.
7825
7826 *Steve Henson*
7827
7828 * Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
7829 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
7830 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
7831 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
7832
7833 This work was sponsored by Google.
7834
7835 *Steve Henson*
7836
7837 * Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
7838 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
7839 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
7840 CRL functionality in future.
7841
7842 This work was sponsored by Google.
7843
7844 *Steve Henson*
7845
7846 * Add support for policy mappings extension.
7847
7848 This work was sponsored by Google.
7849
7850 *Steve Henson*
7851
7852 * Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
7853 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
7854
7855 This work was sponsored by Google.
7856
7857 *Steve Henson*
7858
7859 * Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
7860 and URI types are currently supported.
7861
7862 This work was sponsored by Google.
7863
7864 *Steve Henson*
7865
7866 * To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
7867 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
7868 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
7869 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
7870 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
7871 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
7872 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
7873 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
7874
7875 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
7876 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
7877 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
7878
7879 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
7880 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
7881 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
7882 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
7883
7884 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
7885 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
7886 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
7887 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
7888 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
7889 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
7890 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
7891 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
7892 of &errno.)
7893
7894 *Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller*
7895
7896 * Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
7897 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
7898 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
7899
7900 This work was sponsored by Google.
7901
7902 *Steve Henson*
7903
7904 * Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
7905
7906 *Ben Laurie*
7907
7908 * Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
7909 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
7910 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
7911
7912 *Ben Laurie*
7913
7914 * Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
7915 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
7916
7917 *Nick Mathewson*
7918
7919 * Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
7920 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
7921
7922 *Ben Laurie*
7923
7924 * Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
7925 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
7926 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
7927 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
7928 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
7929 content types and variants.
7930
7931 *Steve Henson*
7932
7933 * Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
7934
7935 *Steve Henson*
7936
7937 * Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
7938 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
7939 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
7940 files from the associated perl scripts.
7941
7942 *Steve Henson*
7943
7944 * Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
7945 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
7946
7947 *Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>*
7948
7949 * s390x assembler pack.
7950
7951 *Andy Polyakov*
7952
7953 * ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
7954 "family."
7955
7956 *Andy Polyakov*
7957
7958 * Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
7959 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
7960 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
7961 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
7962 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
7963 to use. For example, specify an option
7964
7965 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
7966
7967 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
7968 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
7969 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
7970 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
7971 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
7972 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
7973
7974 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
7975 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
7976 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
7977 return non-zero for success.
7978
7979 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
7980 by using
7981
7982 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
7983 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7984
7985 where
7986
7987 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
7988 void *arg;
7989
7990 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
7991 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
7992 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
7993 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
7994 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
7995 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
7996 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
7997 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
7998 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
7999
8000 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
8001 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
8002 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
8003 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
8004 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
8005 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
8006
8007 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
8008 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
8009 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
8010 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
8011 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
8012 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
8013
8014 *Bodo Moeller*
8015
8016 * Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
8017 MAC.
8018
8019 *Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>*
8020
8021 * Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
8022 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
8023 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
8024 supported.
8025
8026 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
8027 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
8028 SSL_SESSION.
8029
8030 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
8031 protection in servers so again support should be possible
8032 with no application modification.
8033
8034 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
8035 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
8036
8037 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
8038 or server extensions to be examined.
8039
8040 This work was sponsored by Google.
8041
8042 *Steve Henson*
8043
8044 * Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
8045 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
8046
8047 *Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson*
8048
8049 * Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
8050 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
8051 ciphersuite support.
8052
8053 *Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson*
8054
8055 * Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
8056 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
8057 to output in BER and PEM format.
8058
8059 *Steve Henson*
8060
8061 * Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
8062 allows HMAC to be handled via the `EVP_DigestSign*()` interface. The
8063 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
8064 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
8065 -macopt options to dgst utility.
8066
8067 *Steve Henson*
8068
8069 * New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
8070 `EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*`. These two changes make it possible to use
8071 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
8072 utility.
8073
8074 *Steve Henson*
8075
8076 * Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
8077 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
8078 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
8079 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
8080 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
8081 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
8082 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
8083 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
8084 enabled again.
8085
8086 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
8087 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
8088 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
8089 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
8090
8091 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
8092 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
8093 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
8094 the default order.
8095
8096 *Bodo Moeller*
8097
8098 * Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
8099 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
8100 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
8101 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
8102 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
8103 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
8104 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
8105 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
8106
8107 *Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni*
8108
8109 * Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
8110 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
8111 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
8112 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
8113 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
8114 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
8115 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
8116 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
8117 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
8118 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
8119 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
8120 kinds of kludges.
8121
8122 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
8123 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
8124 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
8125
8126 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
8127 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
8128 "CAMELLIA256".
8129
8130 *Bodo Moeller*
8131
8132 * Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
8133 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
8134 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
8135
8136 *Nils Larsch*
8137
8138 * Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
8139 it yet and it is largely untested.
8140
8141 *Steve Henson*
8142
8143 * Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
8144
8145 *Nils Larsch*
8146
8147 * Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
8148 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
8149 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
8150
8151 *Steve Henson*
8152
8153 * Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
8154
8155 *Andy Polyakov*
8156
8157 * Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
8158 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
8159 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
8160 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
8161
8162 *Steve Henson*
8163
8164 * Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
8165 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
8166 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
8167 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
8168 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
8169
8170 *Steve Henson*
8171
8172 * GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
8173 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
8174
8175 *Cryptocom*
8176
8177 * Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
8178 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
8179 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
8180 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
8181
8182 *Steve Henson*
8183
8184 * New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
8185 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
8186 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
8187 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
8188
8189 *Steve Henson*
8190
8191 * Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
8192 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
8193
8194 *Steve Henson*
8195
8196 * New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
8197 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
8198 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
8199 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
8200
8201 *Steve Henson*
8202
8203 * Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
8204 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
8205 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
8206
8207 *Steve Henson*
8208
8209 * Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
8210 utility.
8211
8212 *Steve Henson*
8213
8214 * Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
8215 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
8216
8217 *Steve Henson*
8218
8219 * During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
8220 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
8221 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
8222 if necessary.
8223
8224 *Steve Henson*
8225
8226 * New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
8227 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
8228 to free up any added signature OIDs.
8229
8230 *Steve Henson*
8231
8232 * New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
8233 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
8234 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
8235 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
8236
8237 *Steve Henson*
8238
8239 * Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
8240 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
8241 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
8242 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
8243 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
8244 the array representation useful in a more general context.
8245
8246 *Douglas Stebila*
8247
8248 * Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
8249 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
8250 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
8251 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
8252 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
8253
8254 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
8255 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
8256 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
8257 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
8258 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
8259 protocol).
8260
8261 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
8262 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
8263 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
8264 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
8265
8266 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
8267 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
8268 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
8269 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
8270 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
8271
8272 aECDH - ECDH cert
8273 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
8274 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
8275
8276 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
8277 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
8278
8279 *Bodo Moeller*
8280
8281 * Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
8282 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
8283
8284 *Steve Henson*
8285
8286 * Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
8287 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
8288
8289 *Steve Henson*
8290
8291 * Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
8292 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
8293 functional reference processing.
8294
8295 *Steve Henson*
8296
8297 * New functions `EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*`. These are enhanced versions of
8298 `EVP_{Sign,Verify}*` which allow an application to customise the signature
8299 process.
8300
8301 *Steve Henson*
8302
8303 * New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
8304 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
8305 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
8306
8307 *Steve Henson*
8308
8309 * Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
8310 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
8311 application to support multiple signers.
8312
8313 *Steve Henson*
8314
8315 * New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
8316 digest MAC.
8317
8318 *Steve Henson*
8319
8320 * Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
8321 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
8322 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
8323 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
8324 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
8325
8326 *Steve Henson*
8327
8328 * Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
8329 new API.
8330
8331 *Steve Henson*
8332
8333 * Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
8334 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
8335 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
8336 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
8337 a no op.
8338
8339 *Steve Henson*
8340
8341 * Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
8342 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
8343 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
8344 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
8345 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
8346 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
8347 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
8348 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
8349
8350 *Steve Henson*
8351
8352 * Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
8353 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
8354 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
8355 between digests and public key types.
8356
8357 *Steve Henson*
8358
8359 * Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
8360 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
8361 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
8362 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
8363
8364 *Steve Henson*
8365
8366 * Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
8367 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
8368 key ASN1 method.
8369
8370 *Steve Henson*
8371
8372 * Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
8373
8374 *Steve Henson*
8375
8376 * Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
8377 pkeyutl.
8378
8379 *Steve Henson*
8380
8381 * Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
8382 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
8383 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
8384 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
8385 pkey, genpkey.
8386
8387 *Steve Henson*
8388
8389 * BeOS support.
8390
8391 *Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>*
8392
8393 * New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
8394 manual pages.
8395
8396 *Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>*
8397
8398 * New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
8399 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
8400 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
8401 functionality for RSA.
8402
8403 *Steve Henson*
8404
8405 * Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
8406 functions `EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}` have been renamed to
8407 `EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old`.
8408
8409 *Steve Henson*
8410
8411 * Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
8412 key API, doesn't do much yet.
8413
8414 *Steve Henson*
8415
8416 * New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
8417 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
8418 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
8419
8420 *Steve Henson*
8421
8422 * Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
8423 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
8424
8425 *Douglas Stebila*
8426
8427 * Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
8428 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
8429
8430 *Steve Henson*
8431
8432 * New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
8433 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
8434 type.
8435
8436 *Steve Henson*
8437
8438 * Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
8439 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
8440 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
8441 structure.
8442
8443 *Steve Henson*
8444
8445 * Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
8446 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
8447 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
8448 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
8449 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
8450 of public and private key structures.
8451
8452 *Steve Henson*
8453
8454 * Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
8455 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
8456
8457 *Douglas Stebila*
8458
8459 * Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
8460 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
8461 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
8462
8463 New ciphersuites:
8464 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
8465 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
8466
8467 New functions:
8468 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
8469 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
8470 SSL_get_psk_identity
8471 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
8472
8473 *Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation*
8474
8475 * Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
8476 and response verification functionality.
8477
8478 *Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project*
8479
8480 * Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
8481 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
8482 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
8483 additional member `SSL_CTX *initial_ctx` so that new sessions can be
8484 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
8485 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
8486 server_name extension.
8487
8488 New functions (subject to change):
8489
8490 SSL_get_servername()
8491 SSL_get_servername_type()
8492 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
8493
8494 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
8495
8496 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
8497 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
8498 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
8499 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
8500 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
8501
8502 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
8503
8504 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
8505 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
8506 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
8507 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
8508 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
8509 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
8510 option.
8511
8512 *Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou*
8513
8514 * Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
8515
8516 *Andy Polyakov*
8517
8518 * BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
8519 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
8520 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
8521 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
8522 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
8523
8524 *Andy Polyakov*
8525
8526 * Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
8527 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
8528 macro.
8529
8530 *Bodo Moeller*
8531
8532 * New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
8533 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
8534 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
8535 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
8536
8537 *Andy Polyakov*
8538
8539 * New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
8540 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
8541 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
8542 using the maximum available value.
8543
8544 *Steve Henson*
8545
8546 * New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
8547 in addition to the text details.
8548
8549 *Bodo Moeller*
8550
8551 * Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
8552 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
8553 handle several customised structures at all.
8554
8555 *Steve Henson*
8556
8557 * Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
8558 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
8559 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
8560
8561 *Steve Henson*
8562
8563 * Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
8564
8565 *Steve Henson*
8566
8567 * Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
8568 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
8569 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
8570
8571 *Steve Henson*
8572
8573 * Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
8574 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
8575 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
8576
8577 *Nils Larsch*
8578
8579 * Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
8580 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
8581 all fields.
8582
8583 *Steve Henson*
8584
8585 * Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
8586
8587 *Steve Henson*
8588
8589 * Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
8590
8591 *NTT*
8592
8593 OpenSSL 0.9.x
8594 -------------
8595
8596 ### Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
8597
8598 * When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
8599 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
8600 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
8601 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
8602 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
8603 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
8604 protection is active. [CVE-2010-0740][]
8605
8606 *Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>*
8607
8608 * Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
8609 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
8610
8611 *Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>*
8612
8613 ### Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
8614
8615 * Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. [CVE-2009-3245][]
8616
8617 *Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta*
8618
8619 * Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
8620 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
8621
8622 *Bodo Moeller*
8623
8624 * On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
8625 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
8626 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
8627
8628 *Steve Henson*
8629
8630 * The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
8631 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
8632 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
8633 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
8634 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
8635 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
8636
8637 *Steve Henson*
8638
8639 * Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
8640 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
8641 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
8642
8643 *Steve Henson*
8644
8645 * Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
8646 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
8647 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
8648 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
8649 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
8650 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
8651 CVE-2009-4355.
8652
8653 *Steve Henson*
8654
8655 * Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
8656 change when encrypting or decrypting.
8657
8658 *Bodo Moeller*
8659
8660 * Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
8661 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
8662 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
8663
8664 *Steve Henson*
8665
8666 * Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
8667
8668 *Steve Henson*
8669
8670 * If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
8671 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
8672 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
8673 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
8674 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
8675 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
8676 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
8677 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
8678 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
8679
8680 *Steve Henson*
8681
8682 * Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
8683 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
8684 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
8685
8686 *Steve Henson*
8687
8688 * Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
8689 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
8690
8691 *Steve Henson*
8692
8693 * Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
8694 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
8695 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
8696 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
8697 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
8698 know what you are doing.
8699
8700 *Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson*
8701
8702 * Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
8703 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
8704 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
8705 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
8706 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
8707 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
8708 the handshake.
8709
8710 *Steve Henson*
8711
8712 * The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
8713 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
8714 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
8715 correctly.
8716
8717 *Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>*
8718
8719 * Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
8720 warnings in other configurations.
8721
8722 *Steve Henson*
8723
8724 * Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
8725 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
8726 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
8727 systems need.
8728
8729 *Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley*
8730
8731 * Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
8732 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
8733
8734 *Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky*
8735
8736 * Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
8737 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
8738 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
8739 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
8740
8741 *Steve Henson*
8742
8743 * Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
8744 and restored.
8745
8746 *Steve Henson*
8747
8748 * Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
8749 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
8750 clash.
8751
8752 *Guenter <lists@gknw.net>*
8753
8754 * Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
8755 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
8756 other than a simple chain.
8757
8758 *David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson*
8759
8760 * Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
8761 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
8762 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
8763 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
8764
8765 *Steve Henson*
8766
8767 * In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
8768 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
8769 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
8770 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
8771 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
8772 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
8773 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
8774 buffered. [CVE-2009-1378][]
8775
8776 *Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz*
8777
8778 * Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
8779 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
8780 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
8781 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
8782 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
8783 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
8784 [CVE-2009-1377][]
8785
8786 *Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz*
8787
8788 * Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
8789 parent structure is freed. [CVE-2009-1379][]
8790
8791 *Daniel Mentz*
8792
8793 * Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
8794
8795 *Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>*
8796
8797 * Add `2.5.4.*` OIDs

8800
8801 ### Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
8802
8803 * Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
8804 problem [CVE-2009-3555][] at the cost of breaking all
8805 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
8806 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
8807 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
8808 you're doing.
8809
8810 *Ben Laurie*
8811
8812 ### Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
8813
8814 * Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
8815 underlying code. If `sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long)` this can result in
8816 zeroing past the valid field. [CVE-2009-0789][]
8817
8818 *Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>*
8819
8820 * Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
8821 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
8822 appear to verify correctly. [CVE-2009-0591][]
8823
8824 *Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>*
8825
8826 * Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
8827 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
8828 a legal length. [CVE-2009-0590][]
8829
8830 *Steve Henson*
8831
8832 * Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
8833 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
8834 level.
8835
8836 *Steve Henson*
8837
8838 * Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
8839 to handle some structures.
8840
8841 *Steve Henson*
8842
8843 * Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
8844 for a '\n'
8845
8846 *Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>*
8847
8848 * New -hex option for openssl rand.
8849
8850 *Matthieu Herrb*
8851
8852 * Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
8853
8854 *Steve Henson*
8855
8856 * Support NumericString type for name components.
8857
8858 *Steve Henson*
8859
8860 * Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
8861 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
8862 chosen compiler.
8863
8864 *Ben Laurie*
8865
8866 ### Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
8867
8868 * Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
8869 [CVE-2008-5077][].
8870
8871 *Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team*
8872
8873 * Enable TLS extensions by default.
8874
8875 *Ben Laurie*
8876
8877 * Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
8878 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
8879 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
8880
8881 *Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>*
8882
8883 * Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
8884
8885 *Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger*
8886
8887 * Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
8888 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
8889
8890 *Bodo Moeller*
8891
8892 * Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
8893 s_client and s_server.
8894
8895 *Ben Laurie*
8896
8897 * Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
8898
8899 *Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>*
8900
8901 * Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
8902
8903 *Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>*
8904
8905 * Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
8906 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
8907 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
8908 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
8909 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
8910
8911 *Bodo Moeller*
8912
8913 ### Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
8914
8915 * Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
8916 ChangeCipherSpec as first record [CVE-2009-1386][].
8917
8918 *PR #1679*
8919
8920 * Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
8921 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be `..._ST_SW_SRVR_...`).
8922
8923 *Nagendra Modadugu*
8924
8925 * The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
8926 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
8927 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
8928 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
8929
8930 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
8931 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
8932
8933 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder*
8934
8935 * Various precautionary measures:
8936
8937 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
8938
8939 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
8940 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
8941 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
8942
8943 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
8944 outside the expected range.
8945
8946 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
8947 builds.
8948
8949 *Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller*
8950
8951 * Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
8952 the load fails. Useful for distros.
8953
8954 *Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team*
8955
8956 * Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
8957
8958 *Steve Henson*
8959
8960 * Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
8961
8962 *Huang Ying*
8963
8964 * Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
8965
8966 This work was sponsored by Logica.
8967
8968 *Steve Henson*
8969
8970 * Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
8971 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
8972 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
8973
8974 This work was sponsored by Logica.
8975
8976 *Steve Henson*
8977
8978 * Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
8979 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
8980 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
8981 files.
8982
8983 *Steve Henson*
8984
8985 ### Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
8986
8987 * Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
8988 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
8989 Codenomicon TLS test suite [CVE-2008-1672][]
8990
8991 *Steve Henson, Mark Cox*
8992
8993 * Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
8994 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite [CVE-2008-0891][]
8995
8996 *Joe Orton*
8997
8998 * Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
8999
9000 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
9001 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
9002
9003 *Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo*
9004
9005 * Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
9006
9007 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
9008 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
9009 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
9010 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
9011
9012 *Lutz Jaenicke*
9013
9014 * RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
9015 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
9016 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
9017 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
9018 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
9019 invalid read after the end of 'db').
9020
9021 *Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>*
9022
9023 * Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
9024
9025 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
9026 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
9027 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
9028 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
9029 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
9030
9031 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
9032 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
9033
9034 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
9035 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
9036 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
9037 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
9038 e.g. x86_64, try `-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD`.)
9039
9040 *Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)*
9041
9042 * Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
9043 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
9044 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
9045 sets may exist with different names.
9046
9047 *Steve Henson*
9048
9049 * Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
9050 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
9051 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
9052 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
9053 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
9054 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
9055 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
9056 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
9057 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
9058 implementation.
9059
9060 *Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)*
9061
9062 * Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
9063 implementation in the following ways:
9064
9065 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
9066 hard coded.
9067
9068 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
9069 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
9070 ignored for embedded content.
9071
9072 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
9073 with the enable-cms configuration option.
9074
9075 *Steve Henson*
9076
9077 * Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
9078 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
9079 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
9080
9081 *Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>*
9082
9083 * Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
9084 uncompresses any data passed through it.
9085
9086 *Steve Henson*
9087
9088 * Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
9089 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
9090
9091 *Steve Henson*
9092
9093 * Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
9094 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
9095 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
9096 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
9097 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
9098 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
9099 data.
9100
9101 *Steve Henson*
9102
9103 * Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
9104 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
9105
9106 *Bodo Moeller (Google)*
9107
9108 * Netware support:
9109
9110 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
9111 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
9112 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
9113 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
9114 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
9115 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
9116 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
9117 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
9118 platform
9119 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
9120 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
9121 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
9122 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
9123 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
9124 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
9125
9126 *Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>*
9127
9128 * Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
9129 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
9130 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
9131 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
9132 to s_client and s_server.
9133
9134 *Steve Henson*
9135
9136 ### Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
9137
9138 * Fix various bugs:
9139 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
9140 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
9141 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
9142 + Fix ia64 assembler code
9143
9144 *Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson*
9145
9146 ### Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
9147
9148 * DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
9149 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
9150 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
9151 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
9152 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
9153 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
9154 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
9155 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
9156
9157 *Andy Polyakov*
9158
9159 * Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
9160 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
9161 *Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
9162 Steve Henson*
9163
9164 * Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
9165 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
9166 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
9167 supported.
9168
9169 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
9170 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
9171 SSL_SESSION.
9172
9173 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
9174 protection in servers so again support should be possible
9175 with no application modification.
9176
9177 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
9178 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
9179
9180 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
9181 or server extensions to be examined.
9182
9183 This work was sponsored by Google.
9184
9185 *Steve Henson*
9186
9187 * Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
9188 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
9189 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
9190 additional member `SSL_CTX *initial_ctx` so that new sessions can be
9191 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
9192 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
9193 server_name extension.
9194
9195 New functions (subject to change):
9196
9197 SSL_get_servername()
9198 SSL_get_servername_type()
9199 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
9200
9201 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
9202
9203 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
9204 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
9205 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
9206 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
9207 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
9208
9209 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
9210
9211 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
9212 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
9213 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
9214 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
9215 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
9216 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
9217 option.
9218
9219 *Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson*
9220
9221 * Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
9222
9223 *Steve Henson*
9224
9225 * Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
9226
9227 *Andy Polyakov*
9228
9229 * Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
9230 (which previously caused an internal error).
9231
9232 *Bodo Moeller*
9233
9234 * Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
9235
9236 *Ben Laurie*
9237
9238 * AES IGE mode speedup.
9239
9240 *Dean Gaudet (Google)*
9241
9242 * Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
9243 <http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp>) and
9244 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
9245
9246 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
9247 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
9248 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
9249 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
9250
9251 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
9252 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
9253 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
9254
9255 *KISA, Bodo Moeller*
9256
9257 * Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
9258 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
9259 information. For detailed background information, see
9260 <http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039> (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
9261 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
9262 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
9263 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
9264 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
9265 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
9266 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
9267 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
9268 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
9269 remove a conditional branch.
9270
9271 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
9272 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
9273 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
9274 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
9275 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
9276 remains as a deprecated alias.
9277
9278 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
9279 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
9280 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
9281 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
9282
9283 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
9284 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
9285 modulus. This means that the previous `BIGNUM *m` argument to
9286 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
9287 essentially becomes `const BIGNUM *m`, although we can't actually
9288 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
9289 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
9290 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
9291
9292 *Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)*
9293
9294 * In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
9295 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
9296 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
9297 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
9298 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
9299 with applications using a single external cache for quite
9300 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
9301 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
9302 in a different context.
9303
9304 *Bodo Moeller*
9305
9306 * Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
9307 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
9308 authentication-only ciphersuites.
9309
9310 *Bodo Moeller*
9311
9312 * Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
9313 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
9314 [CVE-2007-5135][] [Ben Laurie]
9315
9316 ### Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
9317
9318 * Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
9319 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
9320 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
9321 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
9322 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
9323
9324 *Victor Duchovni*
9325
9326 * Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
9327 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
9328 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
9329 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
9330 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
9331 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
9332
9333 *Bodo Moeller*
9334
9335 * Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
9336 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
9337 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
9338 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
9339 message has informed the client about his choice.)
9340
9341 *Bodo Moeller*
9342
9343 * Add RFC 3779 support.
9344
9345 *Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie*
9346
9347 * Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
9348 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
9349 Improve header file function name parsing.
9350
9351 *Steve Henson*
9352
9353 * extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
9354 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
9355
9356 *Goetz Babin-Ebell*
9357
9358 ### Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
9359
9360 * Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
9361 cause a denial of service. [CVE-2006-2940][]
9362
9363 *Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller*
9364
9365 * Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
9366 in a denial of service. [CVE-2006-2937][] [Steve Henson]
9367
9368 * Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
9369 [CVE-2006-3738][] [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
9370
9371 * Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
9372 malicious SSLv2 server. [CVE-2006-4343][]
9373
9374 *Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team*
9375
9376 * Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
9377 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
9378 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
9379 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
9380 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
9381 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
9382 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
9383 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
9384 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
9385
9386 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
9387 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
9388 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
9389 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
9390 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
9391
9392 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
9393 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
9394 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
9395 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
9396 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
9397 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
9398 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
9399 multiple values to extend the available space.
9400
9401 *Bodo Moeller*
9402
9403 ### Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
9404
9405 * Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
9406 [CVE-2006-4339][] [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
9407
9408 * Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
9409
9410 *Ben Laurie*
9411
9412 * Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
9413 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
9414 undesirable limitations.
9415
9416 *Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller*
9417
9418 * Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
9419 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
9420 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
9421 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
9422 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
9423 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
9424 to avoid potential handshake problems.
9425
9426 *Bodo Moeller*
9427
9428 * Disable rogue ciphersuites:
9429
9430 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
9431 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
9432 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
9433
9434 The latter two were purportedly from
9435 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
9436 appear there.
9437
9438 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
9439 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
9440 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
9441
9442 *Bodo Moeller*
9443
9444 * Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
9445 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
9446
9447 *Bodo Moeller*
9448
9449 * Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
9450 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
9451 (see <http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html>).
9452 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
9453
9454 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
9455 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
9456 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
9457
9458 *NTT*
9459
9460 * Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
9461 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
9462 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
9463 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
9464 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
9465 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
9466
9467 *Steve Henson*
9468
9469 ### Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
9470
9471 * When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
9472 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
9473
9474 *Steve Henson*
9475
9476 * Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
9477
9478 *Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>*
9479
9480 * Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
9481 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
9482 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
9483 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
9484
9485 *Douglas Stebila*
9486
9487 * New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
9488 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
9489
9490 *Steve Henson*
9491
9492 * Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
9493 "zlib1.dll" and use the default `__cdecl` calling convention on Win32
9494 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
9495 <http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt>
9496 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
9497 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
9498 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
9499 can't be loaded.
9500
9501 *Steve Henson*
9502
9503 * Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
9504 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
9505 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
9506 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
9507
9508 *Steve Henson*
9509
9510 * Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
9511 under VC++ build system.
9512
9513 *Steve Henson*
9514
9515 * Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
9516 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
9517
9518 *Richard Levitte*
9519
9520 ### Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
9521
9522 * Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
9523 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
9524 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
9525 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
9526 idea. [CVE-2005-2969][]
9527
9528 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
9529 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
9530 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)*
9531
9532 * Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
9533
9534 *Steve Henson*
9535
9536 * Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
9537 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
9538
9539 *Nils Larsch*
9540
9541 * Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
9542
9543 *Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie*
9544
9545 * Add functions for well-known primes.
9546
9547 *Nick Mathewson*
9548
9549 * Extended Windows CE support.
9550
9551 *Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov*
9552
9553 * Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
9554 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
9555
9556 *Steve Henson*
9557
9558 * Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
9559 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
9560 smime utility.
9561
9562 *Steve Henson*
9563
9564 ### Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
9565
9566 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
9567 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
9568
9569 * Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
9570
9571 *Richard Levitte*
9572
9573 * Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
9574 key into the same file any more.
9575
9576 *Richard Levitte*
9577
9578 * Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
9579
9580 *Andy Polyakov*
9581
9582 * Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
9583
9584 *Stefan <stf@udoma.org*
9585
9586 * Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
9587 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
9588
9589 *Richard Levitte*
9590
9591 * Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
9592 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
9593 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
9594 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
9595 this only applies when building 'shared'.
9596
9597 *Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe*
9598
9599 * Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
9600 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
9601 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
9602
9603 *Steve Henson*
9604
9605 * Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
9606 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
9607 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
9608 - add new function for parameter creation
9609 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
9610 BN_BLINDING parameters
9611 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
9612 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
9613 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
9614 threads.
9615
9616 *Nils Larsch*
9617
9618 * Add support for DTLS.
9619
9620 *Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie*
9621
9622 * Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
9623 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
9624
9625 *Walter Goulet*
9626
9627 * Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
9628 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
9629
9630 *Nils Larsch*
9631
9632 * Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
9633 the apps/openssl applications.
9634
9635 *Nils Larsch*
9636
9637 * Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
9638 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
9639 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
9640
9641 *Ben Laurie*
9642
9643 * Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
9644 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
9645
9646 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
9647 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
9648
9649 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
9650 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
9651 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
9652 avoid this algorithm.)
9653
9654 *Bodo Moeller*
9655
9656 * Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
9657 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
9658 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
9659
9660 *Richard Levitte*
9661
9662 * RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
9663 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
9664
9665 *Andy Polyakov*
9666
9667 * New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
9668 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
9669 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
9670 pod file:
9671
9672 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
9673
9674 The blank line is mandatory.
9675
9676 *Steve Henson*
9677
9678 * New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
9679 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
9680 sources.
9681
9682 *Steve Henson*
9683
9684 * New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
9685 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
9686
9687 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
9688 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
9689 to support policy checking and print out.
9690
9691 *Steve Henson*
9692
9693 * Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
9694 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
9695 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
9696
9697 *Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov*
9698
9699 * Deprecate `BN_[get|set]_params()` functions (they were ignored internally).
9700
9701 *Geoff Thorpe*
9702
9703 * New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
9704
9705 *Andy Polyakov and a number of other people*
9706
9707 * Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
9708 implementation contributed by IBM.
9709
9710 *Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov*
9711
9712 * The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
9713 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
9714 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
9715
9716 *Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe*
9717
9718 * Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
9719 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
9720
9721 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
9722 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
9723 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
9724 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
9725 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
9726 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
9727
9728 *Steve Henson*
9729
9730 * Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
9731 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
9732 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
9733 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
9734 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
9735 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
9736 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
9737
9738 *Geoff Thorpe*
9739
9740 * New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
9741
9742 *Steve Henson*
9743
9744 * Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
9745 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
9746 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
9747 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
9748 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
9749 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
9750 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
9751 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
9752
9753 *Steve Henson*
9754
9755 * Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
9756 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
9757 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
9758 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
9759
9760 *Steve Henson*
9761
9762 * Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
9763 syntax:
9764
9765 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
9766
9767 *Steve Henson*
9768
9769 * Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
9770 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
9771 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
9772 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
9773 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
9774 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
9775 BN_CTX's "bundling".
9776
9777 *Geoff Thorpe*
9778
9779 * Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
9780 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
9781
9782 *Geoff Thorpe*
9783
9784 * Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
9785 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
9786 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
9787
9788 *Steve Henson*
9789
9790 * bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
9791 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
9792 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
9793 below).
9794
9795 *Geoff Thorpe*
9796
9797 * Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
9798 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
9799
9800 *Richard Levitte*
9801
9802 * BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
9803 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
9804 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
9805 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
9806
9807 *Geoff Thorpe*
9808
9809 * BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
9810 initialised value as BN_new().
9811
9812 *Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller*
9813
9814 * Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
9815
9816 *Steve Henson*
9817
9818 * An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
9819 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
9820 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
9821 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
9822 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
9823 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
9824 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
9825 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
9826 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
9827 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
9828 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
9829 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
9830 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
9831 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
9832
9833 *Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller*
9834
9835 * BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
9836 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
9837 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
9838 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
9839
9840 *Geoff Thorpe*
9841
9842 * Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
9843 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
9844 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
9845 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
9846 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
9847 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
9848 objects as "const" and the `lh_doall[_arg]` callback wrappers are not
9849 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
9850 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
9851
9852 *Geoff Thorpe*
9853
9854 * The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
9855 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
9856 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
9857 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from
9858 `char *`. This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and
9859 `ms_time_***`
9860 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
9861 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
9862
9863 *Geoff Thorpe*
9864
9865 * Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
9866 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
9867 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
9868 these have been updated also.
9869
9870 *Geoff Thorpe*
9871
9872 * Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
9873 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
9874 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
9875 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
9876 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
9877 functions.
9878
9879 *Steve Henson*
9880
9881 * New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
9882 structure of type "other".
9883
9884 *Steve Henson*
9885
9886 * Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
9887 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
9888 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
9889 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
9890 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
9891 situation in the script.
9892
9893 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
9894
9895 * Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
9896 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
9897 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
9898 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
9899 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
9900 used as premaster secret.
9901
9902 *Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
9903
9904 * Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
9905 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
9906
9907 *Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
9908
9909 * Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
9910
9911 *Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte*
9912
9913 * Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
9914 control of the error stack.
9915
9916 *Richard Levitte*
9917
9918 * Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
9919
9920 *Richard Levitte*
9921
9922 * Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
9923 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
9924 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
9925 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
9926
9927 *Richard Levitte*
9928
9929 * Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
9930 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
9931 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
9932
9933 *Richard Levitte*
9934
9935 * Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
9936 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
9937 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
9938 a memory area.
9939
9940 *Richard Levitte*
9941
9942 * Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
9943 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
9944 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
9945 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
9946
9947 *Richard Levitte*
9948
9949 * Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
9950 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
9951 the following flags are defined:
9952
9953 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
9954 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
9955 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
9956 number.
9957
9958 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
9959 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
9960 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
9961 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
9962 returns zero.
9963
9964 *Richard Levitte*
9965
9966 * Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
9967 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
9968 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
9969 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
9970 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
9971
9972 *Richard Levitte*
9973
9974 * Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
9975 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
9976 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
9977
9978 *Richard Levitte*
9979
9980 * Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
9981 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
9982 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
9983 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
9984 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
9985 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
9986
9987 *Richard Levitte*
9988
9989 * Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
9990 req and dirName.
9991
9992 *Steve Henson*
9993
9994 * Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
9995
9996 *Steve Henson*
9997
9998 * Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
9999
10000 *Steve Henson*
10001
10002 * Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
10003
10004 *Steve Henson*
10005
10006 * Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
10007 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
10008 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
10009 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
10010 default implementation more easily.
10011
10012 *Geoff Thorpe*
10013
10014 * Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
10015 in config files.
10016
10017 *Steve Henson*
10018
10019 * Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
10020 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
10021
10022 *Richard Levitte*
10023
10024 * Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
10025 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
10026 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
10027 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
10028
10029 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
10030 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
10031 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
10032 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
10033
10034 *Steve Henson*
10035
10036 * Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
10037 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
10038 to do it.
10039
10040 *Richard Levitte*
10041
10042 * In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
10043 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
10044 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
10045 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
10046 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
10047 scalar * generator).
10048
10049 *Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller*
10050
10051 * IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
10052 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
10053 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
10054 correctly.
10055
10056 *Steve Henson*
10057
10058 * Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
10059 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
10060 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
10061 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
10062 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
10063 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
10064 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
10065 linker additions, eg;
10066 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
10067
10068 *Geoff Thorpe*
10069
10070 * "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
10071 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
10072 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
10073
10074 *Geoff Thorpe*
10075
10076 * ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
10077 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
10078 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
10079 via PR#459)
10080
10081 *Lutz Jaenicke*
10082
10083 * Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
10084 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
10085 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
10086 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
10087
10088 *Geoff Thorpe*
10089
10090 * Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
10091 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
10092 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have `_ex`
10093 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
10094 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
10095 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
10096 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
10097 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
10098 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
10099 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
10100
10101 Example for using the new callback interface:
10102
10103 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
10104 void *my_arg = ...;
10105 BN_GENCB my_cb;
10106
10107 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
10108
10109 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
10110 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
10111 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
10112 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
10113 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
10114 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
10115 */
10116
10117 *Geoff Thorpe*
10118
10119 * Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
10120 available to TLS with the number defined in
10121 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
10122
10123 *Richard Levitte*
10124
10125 * Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
10126 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
10127
10128 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
10129 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
10130 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
10131 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
10132
10133 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
10134 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
10135
10136 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
10137 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
10138 well.
10139
10140 *Richard Levitte*
10141
10142 * Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
10143 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
10144
10145 *Richard Levitte*
10146
10147 * Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
10148 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
10149 and a macro that behave like
10150 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
10151
10152 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
10153
10154 *Nils Larsch*
10155
10156 * Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
10157 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
10158 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
10159 if applicable.
10160
10161 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
10162
10163 * Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
10164
10165 *Bodo Moeller*
10166
10167 * Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
10168 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
10169 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
10170 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
10171 directory engines/.
10172 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
10173 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
10174 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
10175 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
10176 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
10177 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
10178 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
10179
10180 *Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte*
10181
10182 * Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
10183 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
10184
10185 *Richard Levitte*
10186
10187 * Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
10188
10189 *Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>*
10190
10191 * Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
10192 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
10193 files while avoiding the low level API.
10194
10195 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
10196 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
10197 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
10198 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
10199
10200 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
10201 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
10202 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
10203 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
10204 instead of the low level API.
10205
10206 *Steve Henson*
10207
10208 * Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
10209 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
10210 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
10211 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
10212 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
10213 PKCS#7 code.
10214
10215 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
10216 down to the template encoder.
10217
10218 *Steve Henson*
10219
10220 * Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
10221 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
10222
10223 *Bodo Moeller*
10224
10225 * Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
10226 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
10227 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
10228
10229 *Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10230
10231 * Add ECDH engine support.
10232
10233 *Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10234
10235 * Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
10236
10237 *Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10238
10239 * Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
10240 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
10241
10242 *Bodo Moeller*
10243
10244 * Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
10245 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
10246 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
10247
10248 *Bodo Moeller*
10249
10250 * Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
10251 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
10252
10253 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10254
10255 * Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
10256 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
10257 New EC_METHOD:
10258
10259 EC_GF2m_simple_method
10260
10261 New API functions:
10262
10263 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
10264 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
10265 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
10266 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
10267 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
10268 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
10269
10270 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
10271 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
10272 enable it).
10273
10274 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
10275 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
10276 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
10277 the above `..._GF2m functions` (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
10278 are essentially identical to their `..._GFp` counterparts.
10279 (For simplicity, the `..._GFp` prefix has been dropped from
10280 various internal method names.)
10281
10282 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
10283 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
10284
10285 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10286
10287 * Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
10288 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
10289
10290 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
10291 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
10292 methods are undefined.
10293
10294 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10295
10296 * New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
10297 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
10298 length of the modulus.
10299
10300 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10301
10302 * New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
10303 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
10304
10305 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10306
10307 * Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
10308 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
10309 used) in the following functions [macros]:
10310
10311 BN_GF2m_add
10312 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
10313 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
10314 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
10315 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
10316 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
10317 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
10318 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
10319 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
10320 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
10321
10322 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
10323 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
10324
10325 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
10326 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
10327 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
10328 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
10329 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
10330 where
10331 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
10332 This applies to the following functions:
10333
10334 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
10335 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
10336 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
10337 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
10338 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
10339 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
10340 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
10341 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
10342 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
10343 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
10344
10345 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
10346
10347 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
10348 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
10349
10350 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
10351
10352 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
10353 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
10354 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
10355 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
10356 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
10357
10358 *Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)*
10359
10360 * Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
10361 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
10362
10363 *Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>*
10364
10365 * Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
10366 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
10367
10368 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
10369 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
10370 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
10371 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
10372
10373 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
10374
10375 * Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
10376 functions
10377 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
10378 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
10379 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
10380 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
10381 These control ASN1 encoding details:
10382 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
10383 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
10384 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
10385 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
10386 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
10387 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
10388 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
10389
10390 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
10391 functions
10392 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
10393 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
10394 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
10395 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
10396
10397 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
10398
10399 * Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
10400 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
10401 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
10402
10403 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
10404
10405 * Add functions
10406 EC_POINT_point2bn()
10407 EC_POINT_bn2point()
10408 EC_POINT_point2hex()
10409 EC_POINT_hex2point()
10410 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
10411 EC_POINT_oct2point().
10412
10413 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
10414
10415 * Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
10416 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
10417 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
10418 EC_GROUP_get_order()
10419 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
10420 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
10421 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
10422 adding different types of curves.
10423
10424 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller*
10425
10426 * Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
10427 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
10428 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
10429
10430 *Bodo Moeller*
10431
10432 * Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
10433 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
10434
10435 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
10436 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
10437 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
10438
10439 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
10440
10441 * Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
10442
10443 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
10444 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
10445
10446 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
10447 library. Most notably,
10448 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
10449 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
10450 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
10451 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
10452 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
10453 extracted before the specific public key;
10454 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
10455
10456 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
10457
10458 * Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
10459 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
10460 function
10461 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
10462 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
10463 EC_get_builtin_curves().
10464 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
10465 accessed via
10466 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
10467 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
10468
10469 *Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller*
10470
10471 * Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
10472 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
10473 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
10474 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
10475 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
10476 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
10477 differing sizes.
10478
10479 *Richard Levitte*
10480
10481 ### Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
10482
10483 * Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
10484 sensitive data.
10485
10486 *Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>*
10487
10488 * Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
10489 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
10490 authentication-only ciphersuites.
10491
10492 *Bodo Moeller*
10493
10494 * Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
10495 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
10496 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
10497
10498 *Victor Duchovni*
10499
10500 * Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
10501
10502 *Steve Henson*
10503
10504 * Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
10505 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
10506
10507 *Steve Henson*
10508
10509 * New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
10510 run algorithm test programs.
10511
10512 *Steve Henson*
10513
10514 * Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
10515
10516 *Steve Henson*
10517
10518 * Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
10519 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
10520 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
10521 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
10522 message has informed the client about his choice.)
10523
10524 *Bodo Moeller*
10525
10526 * Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
10527 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
10528
10529 *Steve Henson*
10530
10531 ### Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
10532
10533 * Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
10534 cause a denial of service. [CVE-2006-2940][]
10535
10536 *Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller*
10537
10538 * Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
10539 in a denial of service. [CVE-2006-2937][] [Steve Henson]
10540
10541 * Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
10542 [CVE-2006-3738][] [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
10543
10544 * Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
10545 malicious SSLv2 server. [CVE-2006-4343][]
10546
10547 *Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team*
10548
10549 * Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
10550 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
10551 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
10552 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
10553 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
10554 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
10555 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
10556
10557 *Bodo Moeller*
10558
10559 ### Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
10560
10561 * Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
10562 [CVE-2006-4339][] [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
10563
10564 * Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
10565 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
10566 undesirable limitations.
10567
10568 *Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller*
10569
10570 * Disable rogue ciphersuites:
10571
10572 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
10573 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
10574 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
10575
10576 The latter two were purportedly from
10577 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
10578 appear there.
10579
10580 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
10581 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
10582 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
10583
10584 *Bodo Moeller*
10585
10586 * Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
10587 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
10588
10589 *Bodo Moeller*
10590
10591 ### Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
10592
10593 * Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
10594 module in FIPS mode.
10595
10596 *Steve Henson*
10597
10598 * Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
10599
10600 *Steve Henson*
10601
10602 * Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
10603 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
10604 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
10605 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
10606
10607 *Steve Henson*
10608
10609 ### Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
10610
10611 * Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
10612 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
10613 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
10614 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
10615 the difference induced by this change.
10616
10617 *Andy Polyakov*
10618
10619 ### Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
10620
10621 * Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
10622 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
10623 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
10624 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
10625 idea. [CVE-2005-2969][]
10626
10627 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
10628 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
10629 Science and Technology [AIST, Japan)]*
10630
10631 * Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
10632 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
10633
10634 *Steve Henson*
10635
10636 * For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
10637 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
10638 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
10639 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
10640 biased k.)
10641
10642 *Bodo Moeller*
10643
10644 * Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
10645 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
10646 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
10647 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
10648 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
10649
10650 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
10651 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
10652 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
10653 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
10654 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
10655 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
10656
10657 *Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller*
10658
10659 * Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
10660 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
10661 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
10662 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
10663 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
10664
10665 *Bodo Moeller*
10666
10667 * Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
10668 clients need.
10669
10670 *Steve Henson*
10671
10672 * New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
10673 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
10674 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
10675
10676 *Steve Henson*
10677
10678 * Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
10679 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
10680 structures constant.
10681
10682 *Steve Henson*
10683
10684 ### Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
10685
10686 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
10687 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
10688
10689 * Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
10690 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
10691 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
10692 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
10693 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
10694 some needed definitions.
10695
10696 *Steve Henson*
10697
10698 * Undo Cygwin change.
10699
10700 *Ulf Möller*
10701
10702 * Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
10703 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
10704 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
10705 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
10706
10707 *Richard Levitte*
10708
10709 ### Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
10710
10711 * Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
10712 server and client random values. Previously
10713 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
10714 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
10715
10716 This change has negligible security impact because:
10717
10718 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
10719 data.
10720
10721 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
10722 handshake.
10723
10724 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
10725 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
10726 values.
10727
10728 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
10729 to our attention.
10730
10731 *Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC*
10732
10733 * Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
10734
10735 *Ulf Möller*
10736
10737 * Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
10738 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
10739
10740 *Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014*
10741
10742 * Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
10743
10744 *Steve Henson*
10745
10746 * Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
10747 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
10748
10749 *Andy Polyakov*
10750
10751 * Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
10752 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
10753
10754 *Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson*
10755
10756 * Add new -passin argument to dgst.
10757
10758 *Steve Henson*
10759
10760 * Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
10761 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
10762 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
10763 certificates.
10764
10765 *Steve Henson*
10766
10767 * Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
10768 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
10769 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
10770 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
10771
10772 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
10773 has chosen to ignore this fault)
10774 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
10775 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
10776 been given)
10777
10778 *Richard Levitte*
10779
10780 ### Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
10781
10782 * Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
10783 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
10784 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
10785 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
10786 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
10787
10788 *Steve Henson*
10789
10790 * Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
10791
10792 *Steve Henson*
10793
10794 * Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
10795
10796 *David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>*
10797
10798 * Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
10799 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
10800 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
10801 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
10802 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
10803 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
10804 rather than being initialized to 1.
10805
10806 *Steve Henson*
10807
10808 ### Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
10809
10810 * Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
10811 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool [CVE-2004-0079][]
10812
10813 *Joe Orton, Steve Henson*
10814
10815 * Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
10816 [CVE-2004-0112][]
10817
10818 *Joe Orton, Steve Henson*
10819
10820 * Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
10821 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
10822 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
10823 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
10824 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
10825 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
10826
10827 *Richard Levitte*
10828
10829 * X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
10830 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
10831 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
10832 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
10833 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
10834 for these cases.
10835
10836 *Steve Henson*
10837
10838 * When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
10839 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
10840 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
10841 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
10842 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
10843
10844 *Steve Henson*
10845
10846 * New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
10847 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
10848 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
10849 < 0.9.7.
10850
10851 *Steve Henson*
10852
10853 * Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
10854
10855 *Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>*
10856
10857 * Use the correct content when signing type "other".
10858
10859 *Steve Henson*
10860
10861 ### Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
10862
10863 * Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
10864
10865 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
10866 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
10867
10868 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid [CVE-2003-0545][].
10869
10870 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
10871 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
10872
10873 *Steve Henson*
10874
10875 * New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
10876 exiting on the first error in a request.
10877
10878 *Steve Henson*
10879
10880 * In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
10881 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
10882 specifications.
10883
10884 *Steve Henson*
10885
10886 * In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
10887 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
10888 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
10889
10890 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe*
10891
10892 * Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
10893 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
10894
10895 *Richard Levitte*
10896
10897 * Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
10898 blocks during encryption.
10899
10900 *Richard Levitte*
10901
10902 * Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
10903 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
10904 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
10905 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
10906 certain size.
10907
10908 *Steve Henson*
10909
10910 * Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
10911 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
10912 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
10913 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
10914 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
10915 parser.
10916
10917 *Steve Henson*
10918
10919 ### Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
10920
10921 * Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
10922 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
10923 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
10924 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
10925
10926 *Bodo Moeller*
10927
10928 * Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
10929 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
10930 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
10931 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
10932
10933 *Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller*
10934
10935 * Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
10936 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
10937 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
10938 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
10939 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
10940 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
10941 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
10942 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
10943 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
10944
10945 *Bodo Moeller*
10946
10947 * Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
10948 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
10949 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
10950 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
10951
10952 *Geoff Thorpe*
10953
10954 * Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
10955 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
10956
10957 *Ulf Moeller*
10958
10959 ### Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
10960
10961 * In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
10962 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
10963 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
10964 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
10965 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. [CVE-2003-0078][]
10966
10967 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
10968 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
10969 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)*
10970
10971 * Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
10972 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
10973 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
10974 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
10975 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
10976
10977 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
10978 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
10979 used by default when no-err is given.
10980
10981 *Richard Levitte*
10982
10983 * Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
10984
10985 *dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454*
10986
10987 * Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
10988 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
10989 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
10990 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
10991
10992 *Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte*
10993
10994 * Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
10995 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
10996 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
10997 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
10998
10999 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
11000
11001 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
11002
11003 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
11004
11005 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
11006 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
11007 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
11008 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
11009 root is omitted).
11010
11011 *Steve Henson*
11012
11013 * Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
11014
11015 *Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte*
11016
11017 * Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
11018 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
11019
11020 *Steve Henson*
11021
11022 * DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
11023 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
11024 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
11025 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
11026
11027 *Lutz Jaenicke*
11028
11029 * Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
11030 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
11031 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
11032 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
11033 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
11034 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
11035 followup to PR #377.
11036
11037 *Lutz Jaenicke*
11038
11039 * IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
11040 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
11041
11042 *Andy Polyakov*
11043
11044 * Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
11045 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
11046 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
11047
11048 *Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>*
11049
11050 ### Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
11051
11052 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
11053 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
11054
11055 * Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
11056 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
11057 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
11058 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
11059 client and server.
11060 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
11061 PR #377.
11062
11063 *Lutz Jaenicke*
11064
11065 * Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
11066 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
11067 removed entirely.
11068
11069 *Richard Levitte*
11070
11071 * The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
11072 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
11073 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
11074 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
11075 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
11076 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
11077 of libcrypto.
11078 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
11079 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
11080 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
11081 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
11082 have to be made anyway).
11083
11084 *Richard Levitte*
11085
11086 * In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
11087 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
11088 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
11089
11090 *Steve Henson*
11091
11092 * Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
11093 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
11094 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
11095
11096 *Richard Levitte*
11097
11098 * Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
11099 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
11100
11101 *Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte*
11102
11103 * Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
11104 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
11105 edit numbers of the version.
11106
11107 *Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte*
11108
11109 * Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
11110 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
11111
11112 *Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte*
11113
11114 * Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
11115
11116 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11117
11118 * Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
11119 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
11120
11121 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11122
11123 * Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
11124
11125 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11126
11127 * Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
11128
11129 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11130
11131 * Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
11132
11133 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11134
11135 * Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
11136
11137 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11138
11139 * Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
11140 overflows.
11141
11142 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11143
11144 * Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
11145 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
11146
11147 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11148
11149 * Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
11150 representations in a platform independent manner.
11151
11152 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11153
11154 * Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
11155 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
11156
11157 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11158
11159 * Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
11160 indents.
11161
11162 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11163
11164 * Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
11165
11166 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11167
11168 * buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
11169 full. Fixed.
11170
11171 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11172
11173 * Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
11174 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
11175
11176 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11177
11178 * New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
11179 unconditionally).
11180
11181 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11182
11183 * Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
11184
11185 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11186
11187 * Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
11188
11189 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11190
11191 * Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
11192
11193 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11194
11195 * If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
11196
11197 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11198
11199 * Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
11200 CBCParameter.
11201
11202 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11203
11204 * Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
11205
11206 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11207
11208 * Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
11209
11210 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11211
11212 * Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
11213 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
11214 exploitable.
11215
11216 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11217
11218 * Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
11219 the 0.9.6 release series:
11220
11221 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
11222 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
11223 [CVE-2002-0657][]
11224
11225 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
11226
11227 * Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
11228
11229 *Richard Levitte*
11230
11231 * Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
11232
11233 *Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson*
11234
11235 * The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
11236
11237 *Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>*
11238
11239 * Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
11240 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
11241 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
11242
11243 *Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>*
11244
11245 * Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
11246 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
11247 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
11248
11249 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
11250 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
11251 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
11252
11253 *Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller*
11254
11255 * Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
11256 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
11257 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
11258 some local tweaks:
11259
11260 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
11261 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
11262 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
11263 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
11264 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
11265 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
11266 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
11267 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
11268 done
11269
11270 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
11271 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
11272 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
11273
11274 *Richard Levitte*
11275
11276 * Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
11277 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
11278 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
11279 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
11280
11281 *Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>*
11282
11283 * Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
11284
11285 *Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>*
11286
11287 * Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
11288 error in AES-CFB decryption.
11289
11290 *Richard Levitte*
11291
11292 * Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
11293 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
11294 calling `EVP_*Final()`. This behaviour is used by encryption
11295 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
11296 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
11297 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
11298
11299 *Steve Henson*
11300
11301 * Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
11302 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
11303 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
11304
11305 *Steve Henson*
11306
11307 * Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
11308 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
11309
11310 *Lutz Jaenicke*
11311
11312 * Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
11313 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
11314 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
11315 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
11316 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
11317 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
11318 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
11319
11320 *Lutz Jaenicke*
11321
11322 * Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
11323 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
11324 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
11325 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
11326 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
11327 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
11328
11329 *Steve Henson*
11330
11331 * Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
11332 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
11333 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
11334 declaration has been changed from
11335 int (*cb)()
11336 into
11337 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
11338 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
11339 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
11340 has been changed into
11341 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
11342
11343 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
11344 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
11345
11346 *D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>*
11347
11348 * Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
11349
11350 *Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe*
11351
11352 * Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
11353 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
11354 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
11355 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
11356 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
11357 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
11358 always load it have also been added.
11359
11360 *Steve Henson*
11361
11362 * Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
11363 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
11364
11365 *Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte*
11366
11367 * Config modules support in openssl utility.
11368
11369 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
11370 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
11371 because it couldn't be used for anything.
11372
11373 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
11374 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
11375 command line option can be used to specify an
11376 alternative file.
11377
11378 *Steve Henson*
11379
11380 * Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
11381 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
11382
11383 *Steve Henson*
11384
11385 * Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
11386 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
11387 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
11388
11389 *Steve Henson*
11390
11391 * Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
11392 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
11393 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
11394 to work with the new engine framework.
11395
11396 *AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte*
11397
11398 * Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
11399 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
11400 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
11401 to work with the new engine framework.
11402
11403 *Richard Levitte*
11404
11405 * Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
11406 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
11407
11408 *Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte*
11409
11410 * Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
11411
11412 *Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte*
11413
11414 * Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
11415 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
11416 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
11417 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
11418 FORMAT_IISSGC.
11419
11420 *Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte*
11421
11422 * Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
11423
11424 *Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte*
11425
11426 * Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
11427
11428 *Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>*
11429
11430 * Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
11431 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
11432 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
11433
11434 *Ben Laurie*
11435
11436 * Add new functions
11437 ERR_peek_last_error
11438 ERR_peek_last_error_line
11439 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
11440 These are similar to
11441 ERR_peek_error
11442 ERR_peek_error_line
11443 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
11444 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
11445 still in the error queue.
11446
11447 *Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller*
11448
11449 * default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
11450 like:
11451 default_algorithms = ALL
11452 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
11453
11454 *Steve Henson*
11455
11456 * Preliminary ENGINE config module.
11457
11458 *Steve Henson*
11459
11460 * New experimental application configuration code.
11461
11462 *Steve Henson*
11463
11464 * Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
11465 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
11466 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
11467
11468 *Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte*
11469
11470 * SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
11471
11472 *Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt*
11473
11474 * Add option to output public keys in req command.
11475
11476 *Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org*
11477
11478 * Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
11479 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
11480
11481 *Bodo Moeller*
11482
11483 * New functions/macros
11484
11485 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
11486 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
11487 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
11488 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
11489
11490 to request calling a callback function
11491
11492 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
11493 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
11494
11495 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
11496 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
11497 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
11498 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
11499 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
11500 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
11501 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
11502 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
11503 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
11504 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
11505
11506 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
11507 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
11508
11509 *Bodo Moeller*
11510
11511 * Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
11512 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
11513 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
11514 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
11515 the configuration scripts.
11516
11517 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
11518 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
11519
11520 *"Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte*
11521
11522 * Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
11523
11524 *Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>*
11525
11526 * Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
11527 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
11528 when reusing an existing buffer.
11529
11530 *Bodo Moeller*
11531
11532 * New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
11533 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
11534
11535 *Steve Henson*
11536
11537 * Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
11538 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
11539
11540 *Ben Laurie*
11541
11542 * Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
11543 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
11544 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
11545 has the same effect.
11546
11547 *Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org*
11548
11549 * Change all functions with names starting with `des_` to be starting
11550 with `DES_` instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
11551 but are named `_ossl_old_des_*`. Finally, add macros that map the
11552 `des_*` symbols to the corresponding `_ossl_old_des_*` if libdes
11553 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
11554 desired, the `des_*` symbols will be mapped to `DES_*`, with one
11555 exception.
11556
11557 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
11558 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
11559 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
11560 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
11561
11562 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
11563 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
11564 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
11565 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
11566
11567 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
11568 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
11569 won't work.
11570
11571 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
11572 authors are encouraged to switch to the `DES_` style functions. Some
11573 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
11574 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
11575 default), and then completely removed.
11576
11577 *Richard Levitte*
11578
11579 * Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
11580 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
11581 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
11582 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
11583 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
11584 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
11585 particular extension is supported.
11586
11587 *Steve Henson*
11588
11589 * Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
11590 to retain compatibility with existing code.
11591
11592 *Steve Henson*
11593
11594 * Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
11595 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
11596 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
11597 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
11598 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
11599 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
11600 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
11601 requires the destination to be valid.
11602
11603 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
11604 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
11605
11606 *Steve Henson*
11607
11608 * Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
11609 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
11610 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
11611
11612 *Bodo Moeller*
11613
11614 * Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
11615
11616 *Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte*
11617
11618 * Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
11619 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
11620 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
11621 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
11622 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
11623 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
11624 implementations of their own. This is detailed in
11625 [crypto/engine/README.md](crypto/engine/README.md)
11626 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
11627 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
11628 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
11629 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
11630 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
11631 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
11632 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
11633 functions dealing with `BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT]` handlers have been removed -
11634 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
11635 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
11636 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
11637 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
11638 the new code.
11639
11640 *Geoff Thorpe*
11641
11642 * Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
11643
11644 *Steve Henson*
11645
11646 * Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
11647 and make sure the automatically generated functions `ERR_load_*`
11648 become part of libeay.num as well.
11649
11650 *Richard Levitte*
11651
11652 * New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
11653 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
11654 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
11655 false once a handshake has been completed.
11656 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
11657 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
11658 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
11659 client has followed the request.)
11660
11661 *Bodo Moeller*
11662
11663 * New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
11664 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
11665 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
11666 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
11667
11668 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
11669 more bits available for options that should not be part of
11670 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
11671
11672 *Bodo Moeller*
11673
11674 * Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
11675
11676 *Steve Henson*
11677
11678 * Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
11679 settable (`SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()`), as proposed by
11680 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
11681
11682 *Lutz Jaenicke*
11683
11684 * Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
11685 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
11686
11687 *Lutz Jaenicke*
11688
11689 * Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
11690 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
11691 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
11692 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
11693
11694 *Geoff Thorpe*
11695
11696 * Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
11697 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
11698 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
11699 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
11700 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
11701 shared-libraries easier (see [README-Engine.md](README-Engine.md)).
11702
11703 *Geoff Thorpe*
11704
11705 * Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
11706 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
11707 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
11708 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
11709 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
11710 the [README-Engine.md](README-Engine.md) file
11711 that brings its information up-to-date and
11712 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
11713 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
11714
11715 *Geoff Thorpe*
11716
11717 * Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
11718 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
11719
11720 *Geoff Thorpe*
11721
11722 * Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
11723
11724 *Ben Laurie*
11725
11726 * Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
11727 md_data void pointer.
11728
11729 *Ben Laurie*
11730
11731 * Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
11732 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
11733 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
11734 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
11735 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
11736 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
11737
11738 *Ben Laurie*
11739
11740 * As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
11741 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
11742 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
11743 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
11744 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
11745 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
11746 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
11747 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
11748 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
11749 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
11750 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
11751 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
11752 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
11753 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
11754 rather than letting it slide.
11755
11756 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
11757 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
11758 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
11759
11760 *Geoff Thorpe*
11761
11762 * Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
11763 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
11764 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
11765 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
11766 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
11767 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
11768 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
11769 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
11770 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
11771
11772 *Geoff Thorpe*
11773
11774 * Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own `*_up_ref()` function to increment
11775 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
11776 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
11777 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
11778 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
11779
11780 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
11781
11782 *Geoff Thorpe*
11783
11784 * Add EVP test program.
11785
11786 *Ben Laurie*
11787
11788 * Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
11789
11790 *Ben Laurie*
11791
11792 * New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
11793 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
11794 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
11795 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
11796 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
11797
11798 *Steve Henson*
11799
11800 * Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
11801 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
11802 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
11803 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
11804 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
11805 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
11806
11807 *Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke*
11808
11809 * Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
11810 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
11811 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
11812 Usage example:
11813
11814 EVP_MD_CTX md;
11815
11816 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
11817 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
11818 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
11819 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
11820 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
11821
11822 *Ben Laurie*
11823
11824 * Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
11825 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
11826 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
11827 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
11828 anyway): E.g.,
11829
11830 des_key_schedule ks;
11831
11832 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
11833 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
11834
11835 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
11836
11837 *Ben Laurie*
11838
11839 * Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
11840 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
11841 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
11842 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
11843 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
11844 functions prevents this.
11845
11846 *Steve Henson*
11847
11848 * Cleanup of EVP macros.
11849
11850 *Ben Laurie*
11851
11852 * Change historical references to `{NID,SN,LN}_des_ede` and ede3 to add the
11853 correct `_ecb suffix`.
11854
11855 *Ben Laurie*
11856
11857 * Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
11858 revocation information is handled using the text based index
11859 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
11860 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
11861 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
11862
11863 *Steve Henson*
11864
11865 * Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
11866
11867 *Richard Levitte*
11868
11869 * Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
11870 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
11871 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
11872 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
11873
11874 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
11875 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
11876
11877 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
11878 *Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>, Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
11879 via Richard Levitte*
11880
11881 * Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
11882 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
11883 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
11884 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
11885
11886 *Geoff Thorpe*
11887
11888 * Speed up EVP routines.

11904
11905 *Ben Laurie*
11906
11907 * Added the OS2-EMX target.
11908
11909 *"Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte*
11910
11911 * Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
11912 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
11913 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
11914 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
11915 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
11916 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
11917
11918 *Steve Henson*
11919
11920 * Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
11921 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
11922
11923 *Richard Levitte*
11924
11925 * Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
11926 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
11927 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
11928
11929 *Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson*
11930
11931 * Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
11932 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
11933 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
11934 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
11935 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
11936 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
11937 callback.
11938
11939 *Richard Levitte*
11940
11941 * Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
11942 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
11943 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
11944 and interrupts/cancellations.
11945
11946 *Richard Levitte*
11947
11948 * Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
11949 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
11950
11951 *Steve Henson*
11952
11953 * Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
11954 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
11955
11956 *Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>*
11957
11958 * Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
11959 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
11960 kind of callback.
11961
11962 *Richard Levitte*
11963
11964 * Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
11965 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
11966 than this minimum value is recommended.
11967
11968 *Lutz Jaenicke*
11969
11970 * New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
11971 that are easily reachable.
11972
11973 *Richard Levitte*
11974
11975 * Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
11976 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
11977
11978 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
11979
11980 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
11981 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
11982 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
11983 needed for static libraries under Win32.
11984
11985 *Steve Henson*
11986
11987 * New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
11988 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
11989 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
11990
11991 *Steve Henson*
11992
11993 * Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
11994 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
11995 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
11996 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
11997 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
11998 internally such as S/MIME.
11999
12000 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
12001 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
12002 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
12003
12004 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
12005 applications.
12006
12007 *Steve Henson*
12008
12009 * Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
12010 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
12011 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
12012 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
12013
12014 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
12015
12016 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
12017
12018 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
12019 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
12020 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
12021 handling.
12022
12023 *Steve Henson*
12024
12025 * Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
12026 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
12027 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
12028 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
12029 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
12030 a window system and the like.
12031
12032 *Richard Levitte*
12033
12034 * Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
12035 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
12036
12037 *Geoff*
12038
12039 * Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
12040 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
12041 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
12042 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
12043 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
12044 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
12045 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
12046 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
12047 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
12048 ENGINE structure.
12049
12050 *Geoff*
12051
12052 * Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
12053 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
12054 tag cache.
12055
12056 *Steve Henson*
12057
12058 * Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
12059 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
12060 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
12061 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
12062 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
12063 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
12064 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
12065 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
12066
12067 *Geoff*
12068
12069 * New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
12070 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
12071 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
12072 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
12073 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
12074 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
12075 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
12076 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
12077 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
12078 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
12079 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
12080 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
12081 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
12082 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
12083 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
12084 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
12085 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
12086
12087 *Geoff*
12088
12089 * Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
12090 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
12091 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
12092 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
12093 internal engine_int.h header.
12094
12095 *Geoff*
12096
12097 * Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
12098 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
12099 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
12100 modify their own ones).
12101
12102 *Geoff*
12103
12104 * Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
12105 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
12106 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
12107 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
12108 later on via ctrl() commands.
12109 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
12110 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
12111 structural references.
12112 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
12113 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
12114 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
12115 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
12116 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
12117 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
12118 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
12119 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
12120 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
12121 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
12122 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
12123 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
12124
12125 *Geoff*
12126
12127 * Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
12128 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
12129 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
12130 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
12131 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
12132 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
12133 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
12134 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
12135
12136 *Bodo Moeller*
12137
12138 * Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
12139 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
12140
12141 *Steve Henson*
12142
12143 * Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
12144 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
12145
12146 *Steve Henson*
12147
12148 * Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
12149 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
12150 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
12151 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
12152 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
12153 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
12154 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
12155
12156 *Steve Henson*
12157
12158 * Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
12159 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
12160 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
12161 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
12162 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
12163
12164 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
12165 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
12166 generator).
12167
12168 *Bodo Moeller*
12169
12170 * First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
12171
12172 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
12173 operations and provides various method functions that can also
12174 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
12175
12176 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
12177 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
12178
12179 *Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
12180 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
12181 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>*
12182
12183 * Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
12184 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
12185
12186 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
12187 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
12188
12189 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
12190
12191 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
12192 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
12193 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
12194
12195 *Bodo Moeller*
12196
12197 * Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
12198 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
12199
12200 *Richard Levitte*
12201
12202 * Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
12203 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
12204 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
12205 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
12206 is 40 of more characters long.
12207
12208 *Steve Henson*
12209
12210 * Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
12211 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
12212 pointers.
12213
12214 *Steve Henson*
12215
12216 * Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
12217 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
12218
12219 *Bodo Moeller*
12220
12221 * Modify `EVP_Digest*()` routines so they now return values. Although the
12222 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
12223 might.
12224
12225 *Steve Henson*
12226
12227 * Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
12228
12229 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
12230 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
12231
12232 ASN1 error codes
12233 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
12234 ...
12235 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
12236 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
12237 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
12238 ...
12239 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
12240 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
12241
12242 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
12243
12244 *Bodo Moeller*
12245
12246 * Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
12247 suffices.
12248
12249 *Bodo Moeller*
12250
12251 * New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
12252 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
12253 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
12254 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
12255 and
12256 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
12257
12258 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
12259
12260 *Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>*
12261
12262 * Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
12263 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
12264 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
12265 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
12266 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
12267 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
12268
12269 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
12270 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
12271
12272 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
12273 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
12274
12275 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
12276 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
12277
12278 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
12279 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
12280 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
12281 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
12282
12283 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
12284 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
12285
12286 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
12287 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
12288
12289 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
12290 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
12291 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
12292 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
12293 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
12294
12295 *Richard Levitte*
12296
12297 * In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
12298 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
12299 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
12300 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
12301
12302 *Steve Henson*
12303
12304 * Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
12305 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
12306 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
12307 trust settings.
12308
12309 *Steve Henson*
12310
12311 * Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
12312 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
12313 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
12314 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
12315 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
12316 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
12317 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
12318 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
12319 ocsp utility.
12320
12321 *Steve Henson*
12322
12323 * If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
12324 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
12325
12326 *Steve Henson*
12327
12328 * Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
12329 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
12330 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
12331 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
12332
12333 *Steve Henson*
12334
12335 * New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
12336 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
12337 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
12338 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
12339 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
12340 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
12341 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
12342 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
12343 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
12344 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
12345
12346 *Steve Henson*
12347
12348 * Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
12349 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
12350 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
12351 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
12352 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
12353 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
12354 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
12355
12356 *Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke*
12357
12358 * Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
12359 of the form `#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...` and
12360 `#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...`. This also avoids
12361 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
12362
12363 *Richard Levitte*
12364
12365 * Make all configuration macros available for application by making
12366 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
12367 with `OPENSSL_` to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
12368 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
12369 opensslconf.h.
12370 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
12371 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
12372 are prefixed with `OPENSSL_SYSNAME_`. e_os2.h will create another
12373 macro with the name beginning with `OPENSSL_SYS_`, which is determined
12374 from `OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*` or compiler-specific macros depending on
12375 what is available.
12376
12377 *Richard Levitte*
12378
12379 * New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
12380 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
12381 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
12382 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
12383 auto incremented.
12384
12385 *Steve Henson*
12386
12387 * New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
12388 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
12389 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
12390
12391 *Steve Henson*
12392
12393 * New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
12394 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
12395 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
12396 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
12397 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
12398
12399 *Steve Henson*
12400
12401 * Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
12402
12403 *Steve Henson*
12404
12405 * New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
12406 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
12407 option to ocsp utility.
12408
12409 *Steve Henson*
12410
12411 * New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
12412 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
12413 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
12414 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
12415 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
12416 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
12417 the request is nonce-less.
12418
12419 *Steve Henson*
12420
12421 * Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
12422 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
12423 e.g. `(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs`.
12424
12425 *Bodo Moeller*
12426
12427 * Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
12428 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
12429 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
12430
12431 *Steve Henson*
12432
12433 * New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
12434 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
12435 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
12436 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
12437 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
12438
12439 *Lutz Jaenicke*
12440
12441 * Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
12442 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
12443 appear to exist.
12444
12445 *Steve Henson*
12446
12447 * Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
12448 additional certificates supplied.
12449
12450 *Steve Henson*
12451
12452 * Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
12453 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
12454 signature against.
12455
12456 *Richard Levitte*
12457
12458 * Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
12459 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
12460 AES OIDs.
12461
12462 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
12463 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
12464 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
12465 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
12466 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
12467 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
12468 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
12469 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
12470
12471 *Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller*
12472
12473 * New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
12474 request to response.
12475
12476 *Steve Henson*
12477
12478 * Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
12479 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
12480 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
12481 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
12482 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
12483 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
12484 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
12485 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
12486 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
12487 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
12488 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
12489
12490 *Steve Henson*
12491
12492 * Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
12493 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
12494 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
12495 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
12496
12497 *Steve Henson*
12498
12499 * Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
12500
12501 *Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>*
12502
12503 * New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
12504 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
12505 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
12506
12507 *Steve Henson*
12508
12509 * In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
12510 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
12511 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
12512 *Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
12513 <support@securenetterm.com>*
12514
12515 * Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
12516 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
12517 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
12518
12519 *Steve Henson*
12520
12521 * Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
12522 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
12523 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
12524 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
12525 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
12526 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
12527 *Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
12528 <support@securenetterm.com>*
12529
12530 * Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
12531 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
12532 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
12533 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
12534 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
12535 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
12536
12537 *Steve Henson*
12538
12539 * Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
12540 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
12541 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
12542 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
12543 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
12544 printout format cleaned up.
12545
12546 *Steve Henson*
12547
12548 * Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
12549 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
12550 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
12551 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
12552 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
12553 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
12554 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
12555 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
12556
12557 *Steve Henson*
12558
12559 * Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
12560 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
12561 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
12562 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
12563 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
12564 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
12565 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
12566 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
12567
12568 *Steve Henson*
12569
12570 * New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
12571 extensions from a separate configuration file.
12572 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
12573 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
12574 section to use.
12575
12576 *Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>*
12577
12578 * New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
12579 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
12580 parsed, outputted or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
12581 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
12582
12583 *Steve Henson*
12584
12585 * New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
12586 `openssl ca -status <serial>` prints the status of the cert with
12587 the given serial number (according to the index file).
12588 `openssl ca -updatedb` updates the expiry status of certificates
12589 in the index file.
12590
12591 *Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>*
12592
12593 * New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
12594 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
12595 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
12596
12597 *Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>*
12598
12599 * New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
12600
12601 *Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte*
12602
12603 * Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
12604 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
12605 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
12606
12607 *Steve Henson*
12608
12609 * New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
12610 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
12611 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
12612
12613 *Bodo Moeller*
12614
12615 * Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
12616 file name and line number information in additional arguments
12617 (a `const char*` and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
12618 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
12619 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
12620 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
12621 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
12622 functions are provided:
12623
12624 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
12625 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
12626 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
12627 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
12628
12629 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
12630 `CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions` now writes 0 where such an
12631 extended allocation function is enabled.
12632 Similarly, `CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions` writes 0 where
12633 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
12634
12635 *Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller*
12636
12637 * Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
12638 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
12639 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
12640 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
12641 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
12642
12643 *Geoff Thorpe*
12644
12645 * Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
12646 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
12647 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
12648 be queried.
12649 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
12650 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
12651 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
12652
12653 *Lutz Jaenicke*
12654
12655 * Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
12656 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
12657 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
12658 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
12659 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
12660 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
12661 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
12662 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
12663 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
12664
12665 *Richard Levitte*
12666
12667 * Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
12668 provide utility functions which an application needing
12669 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
12670 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
12671 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
12672
12673 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
12674 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
12675 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
12676 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
12677 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
12678 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
12679 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
12680 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
12681 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
12682
12683 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
12684 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
12685 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
12686 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
12687
12688 *Steve Henson*
12689
12690 * Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
12691 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
12692 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
12693 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
12694 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
12695 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
12696 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
12697 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
12698 will be added elsewhere.
12699
12700 *Steve Henson*
12701
12702 * Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
12703 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
12704 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
12705 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
12706
12707 *Steve Henson*
12708
12709 * Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
12710 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
12711 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
12712 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
12713 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
12714 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
12715 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
12716 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
12717 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
12718 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
12719 to produce the required SET OF.
12720
12721 *Steve Henson*
12722
12723 * Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
12724 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
12725 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
12726
12727 *Richard Levitte*
12728
12729 * Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
12730 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
12731 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
12732 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
12733 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
12734 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
12735
12736 *Steve Henson*
12737
12738 * New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
12739 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
12740 the `*_d2i_bio()` and `*_d2i_fp()` functions to use these.
12741
12742 *Steve Henson*
12743
12744 * Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
12745 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
12746 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
12747
12748 *Richard Levitte*
12749
12750 * New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
12751 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
12752 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
12753 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
12754 code will still work when these eventually go away.
12755
12756 *Steve Henson*
12757
12758 * New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
12759 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
12760
12761 *Steve Henson*
12762
12763 * New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
12764 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
12765 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
12766 certificates and CRLs.
12767
12768 *Steve Henson*
12769
12770 * Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
12771 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
12772 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
12773
12774 *Steve Henson*
12775
12776 * Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
12777 entries for variables.
12778
12779 *Steve Henson*
12780
12781 * Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
12782 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
12783 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
12784 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
12785
12786 *Bodo Moeller*
12787
12788 * Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
12789 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
12790 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
12791 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
12792 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
12793 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
12794
12795 *Bodo Moeller*
12796
12797 * Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
12798
12799 *Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe*
12800
12801 * Move common extension printing code to new function
12802 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
12803 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
12804
12805 *Steve Henson*
12806
12807 * New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
12808 print routines.
12809
12810 *Steve Henson*
12811
12812 * Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
12813 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
12814 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
12815 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
12816 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
12817 order did not reflect the encoded order.
12818
12819 *Steve Henson*
12820
12821 * Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
12822
12823 *Steve Henson*
12824
12825 * Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
12826 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
12827 for now but they will eventually go away.
12828
12829 *Steve Henson*
12830
12831 * Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
12832 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
12833 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
12834 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
12835 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
12836 has also been converted to the new form.
12837
12838 *Steve Henson*
12839
12840 * Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
12841 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
12842 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
12843 for negative moduli.
12844
12845 *Bodo Moeller*
12846
12847 * Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
12848 of not touching the result's sign bit.
12849
12850 *Bodo Moeller*
12851
12852 * BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
12853 set.
12854
12855 *Bodo Moeller*
12856
12857 * Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
12858 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
12859 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
12860 type-specific callbacks.
12861
12862 *Geoff Thorpe*
12863
12864 * Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
12865 RFC 2712.
12866 *Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
12867 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte*
12868
12869 * Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
12870 in sections depending on the subject.
12871
12872 *Richard Levitte*
12873
12874 * Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
12875 Windows.
12876
12877 *Richard Levitte*
12878
12879 * New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
12880 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
12881 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
12882 be handled deterministically).
12883
12884 *Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller*
12885
12886 * Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
12887 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
12888 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
12889
12890 *Bodo Moeller*
12891
12892 * New function BN_kronecker.
12893
12894 *Bodo Moeller*
12895
12896 * Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
12897 positive unless both parameters are zero.
12898 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
12899 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
12900 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
12901
12902 *Bodo Moeller*
12903
12904 * Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
12905 sign of the number in question.
12906
12907 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
12908
12909 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
12910 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
12911 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
12912 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
12913 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
12914
12915 *Bodo Moeller*
12916
12917 * New function BN_swap.
12918
12919 *Bodo Moeller*
12920
12921 * Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
12922 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
12923 results on negative inputs.
12924
12925 *Bodo Moeller*
12926
12927 * Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
12928 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
12929 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
12930
12931 *Bodo Moeller*
12932
12933 * Move `BN_mod_...` functions into new file `crypto/bn/bn_mod.c`
12934 (except for exponentiation, which stays in `crypto/bn/bn_exp.c`,
12935 and `BN_mod_mul_reciprocal`, which stays in `crypto/bn/bn_recp.c`)
12936 and add new functions:
12937
12938 BN_nnmod
12939 BN_mod_sqr
12940 BN_mod_add
12941 BN_mod_add_quick
12942 BN_mod_sub
12943 BN_mod_sub_quick
12944 BN_mod_lshift1
12945 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
12946 BN_mod_lshift
12947 BN_mod_lshift_quick
12948
12949 These functions always generate non-negative results.
12950
12951 `BN_nnmod` otherwise is `like BN_mod` (if `BN_mod` computes a remainder `r`
12952 such that `|m| < r < 0`, `BN_nnmod` will output `rem + |m|` instead).
12953
12954 `BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m)` generates the same result as
12955 `BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx)`, but requires that `a` [and `b`]
12956 be reduced modulo `m`.
12957
12958 *Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller*
12959
12960 <!--
12961 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
12962 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
12963 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
12964
12965 * Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
12966 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
12967 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
12968 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
12969 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
12970 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
12971 differing sizes.
12972
12973 *Richard Levitte*
12974 -->
12975
12976 * In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
12977 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
12978 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
12979 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
12980 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
12981
12982 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
12983 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
12984 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
12985 cause any problems.
12986
12987 *Bodo Moeller*
12988
12989 * Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
12990
12991 *Richard Levitte*
12992
12993 * Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
12994 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
12995
12996 *Richard Levitte*
12997
12998 * Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
12999 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
13000 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
13001 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
13002 time)
13003
13004 *Richard Levitte*
13005
13006 * Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
13007
13008 *Richard Levitte*
13009
13010 * Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
13011
13012 *Richard Levitte*
13013
13014 * Add the following functions:
13015
13016 ENGINE_load_cswift()
13017 ENGINE_load_chil()
13018 ENGINE_load_atalla()
13019 ENGINE_load_nuron()
13020 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
13021
13022 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
13023 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
13024 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
13025 libraries unless it's really needed.
13026
13027 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
13028 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
13029 declarations (they differed!).
13030
13031 *Richard Levitte*
13032
13033 * 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
13034
13035 *Richard Levitte*
13036
13037 * Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
13038
13039 *Richard Levitte*
13040
13041 * Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
13042
13043 *Bodo Moeller*
13044
13045 * Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
13046 identity, and test if they are actually available.
13047
13048 *Richard Levitte*
13049
13050 * Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
13051 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
13052
13053 *Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>*
13054
13055 * Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
13056 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
13057
13058 *Richard Levitte*
13059
13060 * Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
13061
13062 *Richard Levitte*
13063
13064 * Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
13065
13066 *Richard Levitte*
13067
13068 * Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
13069
13070 *Ben Laurie*
13071
13072 * Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
13073 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
13074
13075 *Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte*
13076
13077 * Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
13078 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
13079 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
13080 different shared library filenames on each system.
13081
13082 *Geoff Thorpe*
13083
13084 * Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
13085
13086 *Richard Levitte*
13087
13088 * Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
13089 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
13090 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
13091 of two sections.
13092
13093 *Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson*
13094
13095 * NCONF changes.
13096 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
13097 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (`_e` for "error checking") and is
13098 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
13099 binary backward compatibility.
13100 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
13101 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
13102 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
13103 LDAP server.
13104
13105 *Richard Levitte*
13106
13107 * Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
13108 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
13109 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
13110 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
13111 this case.
13112
13113 *Steve Henson*
13114
13115 * Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
13116
13117 *Ben Laurie*
13118
13119 * Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
13120 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
13121 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
13122 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
13123 set.
13124
13125 *Steve Henson*
13126
13127 * Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
13128
13129 *Richard Levitte*
13130
13131 ### Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
13132
13133 * Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
13134 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool [CVE-2004-0079][]
13135
13136 *Joe Orton, Steve Henson*
13137
13138 ### Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
13139
13140 * Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
13141
13142 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
13143 certain ASN.1 tags [CVE-2003-0851][]
13144
13145 *Steve Henson*
13146
13147 ### Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
13148
13149 * Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
13150
13151 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
13152 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
13153
13154 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
13155 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
13156
13157 *Steve Henson*
13158
13159 * In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
13160 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
13161 specifications.
13162
13163 *Steve Henson*
13164
13165 * In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
13166 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
13167 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
13168
13169 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe*
13170
13171 * Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
13172 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
13173
13174 *Richard Levitte*
13175
13176 ### Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
13177
13178 * Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
13179 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
13180 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
13181 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
13182
13183 *Bodo Moeller*
13184
13185 * Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
13186 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
13187 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
13188 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
13189
13190 *Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller*
13191
13192 * Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
13193 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
13194 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
13195 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
13196 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
13197 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
13198 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
13199 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
13200 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
13201
13202 *Bodo Moeller*
13203
13204 ### Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
13205
13206 * In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
13207 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
13208 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
13209 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
13210 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. [CVE-2003-0078][]
13211
13212 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
13213 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
13214 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)*
13215
13216 ### Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
13217
13218 * New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
13219 memory from its contents. This is done with a counter that will
13220 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
13221 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
13222 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
13223 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
13224
13225 *Geoff Thorpe*
13226
13227 * Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
13228 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
13229 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
13230 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
13231 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
13232
13233 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13234
13235 * Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
13236 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
13237
13238 *Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>*
13239
13240 * Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
13241 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
13242 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
13243 EVP_cleanup().
13244
13245 *Richard Levitte*
13246
13247 * Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
13248 being properly terminated.
13249
13250 *Richard Levitte*
13251
13252 * Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
13253 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
13254 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
13255
13256 *stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte*
13257
13258 * Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
13259 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
13260 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
13261 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
13262 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
13263 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
13264 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
13265 change.
13266
13267 *Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El*
13268
13269 * Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
13270 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
13271
13272 *Bodo Moeller*
13273
13274 * Fix initialization code race conditions in
13275 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
13276 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
13277 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
13278 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
13279 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
13280 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
13281
13282 *Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller*
13283
13284 * Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
13285 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
13286 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
13287 (see [openssl.org #212]).
13288
13289 *Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke*
13290
13291 * Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
13292 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
13293
13294 *Steve Henson*
13295
13296 ### Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
13297
13298 * [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
13299 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use `_stdcall`).
13300
13301 *Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>*
13302
13303 ### Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
13304
13305 * Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
13306 and get fix the header length calculation.
13307 *Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
13308 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others), Steve Henson*
13309
13310 * Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
13311 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
13312 assertions could call abort()).
13313
13314 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller*
13315
13316 ### Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
13317
13318 * Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
13319 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
13320 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
13321 supplied buffer.
13322
13323 *Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>*
13324
13325 * Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
13326 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
13327 by the selection routines (PR #130).
13328
13329 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13330
13331 * Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
13332
13333 *Nils Larsch*
13334
13335 * New option
13336 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
13337 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
13338 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
13339
13340 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
13341 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
13342 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
13343 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
13344 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
13345 applications.
13346
13347 *Bodo Moeller*
13348
13349 * Changes in security patch:
13350
13351 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
13352 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
13353 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
13354 F30602-01-2-0537.
13355
13356 * Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
13357 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
13358 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
13359 supplied buffer. [CVE-2002-0659][]
13360
13361 *Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>*
13362
13363 * Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
13364 happen in practice.
13365
13366 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13367
13368 * Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
13369 too small for 64 bit platforms. [CVE-2002-0655][]
13370 *Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>*
13371
13372 * Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
13373 supply an oversized session ID to a client. [CVE-2002-0656][]
13374
13375 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13376
13377 * Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
13378 supply an oversized client master key. [CVE-2002-0656][]
13379
13380 *Ben Laurie (CHATS)*
13381
13382 ### Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
13383
13384 * Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
13385 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
13386
13387 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller*
13388
13389 * Check various `X509_...()` return values in apps/req.c.
13390
13391 *Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>*
13392
13393 * Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
13394 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
13395 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
13396 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
13397 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
13398 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
13399
13400 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13401
13402 * Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
13403 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
13404 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
13405 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
13406
13407 *Bodo Moeller*
13408
13409 * Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
13410
13411 *Bodo Moeller*
13412
13413 * TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
13414 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
13415 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
13416 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
13417 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
13418
13419 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
13420
13421 * Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
13422 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
13423 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
13424 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
13425 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
13426
13427 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13428
13429 * Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
13430 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
13431 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
13432 BN_generate_prime().)
13433
13434 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
13435 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
13436 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
13437 better.
13438
13439 *Bodo Moeller*
13440
13441 * Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
13442 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
13443
13444 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13445
13446 * Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
13447 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
13448 when using non-blocking I/O.
13449
13450 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes*
13451
13452 * Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
13453
13454 *Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke*
13455
13456 * Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
13457 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
13458
13459 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13460
13461 * Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
13462 configuration for the versions before that.
13463
13464 *Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte*
13465
13466 * Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
13467 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
13468 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
13469 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
13470
13471 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13472
13473 * Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
13474 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
13475 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
13476
13477 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13478
13479 * Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
13480 value is 0.
13481
13482 *Richard Levitte*
13483
13484 * [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
13485 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
13486
13487 *Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte*
13488
13489 * Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
13490
13491 *Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte*
13492
13493 * The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
13494 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
13495 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
13496 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
13497 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
13498 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
13499 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
13500 session cache.
13501
13502 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
13503 using a local variable.
13504
13505 *Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller*
13506
13507 * Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
13508 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
13509
13510 *Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller*
13511
13512 * New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
13513
13514 *Richard Levitte*
13515
13516 * Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
13517
13518 *"Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>*
13519
13520 * Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
13521 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
13522
13523 *D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>*
13524
13525 ### Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
13526
13527 * Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
13528 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
13529 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = `10..._2` and
13530 `3*range` is two bits longer than range.)
13531
13532 *Bodo Moeller*
13533
13534 * Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
13535 present.
13536
13537 *Steve Henson*
13538
13539 * Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
13540 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
13541 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
13542 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
13543
13544 *Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller*
13545
13546 * Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
13547 returns early because it has nothing to do.
13548
13549 *Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>*
13550
13551 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
13552 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
13553
13554 *Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>*
13555
13556 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
13557 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
13558 (Use engine 'keyclient')
13559
13560 *Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe*
13561
13562 * Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
13563 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
13564 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
13565 modules).
13566
13567 *Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>*
13568
13569 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
13570 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
13571 from 0.9.7.
13572
13573 *Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox*
13574
13575 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
13576 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
13577 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
13578
13579 *Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox*
13580
13581 * [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
13582 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
13583 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
13584
13585 *AEP Inc. and Mark Cox*
13586
13587 * Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
13588
13589 *Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>*
13590
13591 * Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
13592 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
13593 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
13594
13595 *Bodo Moeller*
13596
13597 * Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
13598 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
13599 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
13600 become invalid.
13601 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>*
13602
13603 * Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
13604 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
13605 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
13606 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
13607 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
13608 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
13609 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
13610
13611 *Bodo Moeller*
13612
13613 * Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
13614 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
13615 one of the SSL handshake functions.
13616
13617 *Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric*
13618
13619 * In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
13620 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
13621 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
13622 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
13623 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
13624 the client will at least see that alert.
13625
13626 *Bodo Moeller*
13627
13628 * Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
13629 correctly.
13630
13631 *Bodo Moeller*
13632
13633 * Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
13634 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
13635
13636 *Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>*
13637
13638 * Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
13639 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
13640 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
13641 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
13642 HelloRequest.
13643
13644 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
13645 before just sending a HelloRequest.
13646
13647 *Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>*
13648
13649 * Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
13650 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
13651 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
13652 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
13653 may leak via logfiles.)
13654
13655 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
13656 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
13657 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
13658 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
13659 the legal range.
13660
13661 *Bodo Moeller*
13662
13663 * Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
13664 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
13665
13666 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13667
13668 * Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
13669 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
13670 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
13671 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
13672 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
13673
13674 *Bodo Moeller*
13675
13676 * BN_sqr() bug fix.
13677
13678 *Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>*
13679
13680 * Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
13681 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
13682 followed by modular reduction.
13683
13684 *Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>*
13685
13686 * Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
13687 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
13688
13689 *Bodo Moeller*
13690
13691 * s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
13692 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
13693 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
13694 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
13695
13696 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13697
13698 * Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to `SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]()`.
13699
13700 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13701
13702 * Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
13703 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
13704
13705 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13706
13707 * Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
13708 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
13709 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
13710 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
13711 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
13712 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
13713 automatically.
13714
13715 *Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte*
13716
13717 * In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
13718 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
13719 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
13720 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
13721
13722 *Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>*
13723
13724 * Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
13725
13726 *Andy Polyakov*
13727
13728 * Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
13729 specifically for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
13730 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
13731 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
13732 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
13733 to allow the necessary settings.
13734
13735 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13736
13737 * Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
13738 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
13739 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
13740 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
13741
13742 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13743
13744 * In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
13745 dh->length and always used
13746
13747 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
13748
13749 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
13750 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
13751 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
13752 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
13753 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
13754 dh->length.
13755
13756 So switch back to
13757
13758 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
13759
13760 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
13761 otherwise.
13762
13763 *Bodo Moeller*
13764
13765 * In
13766
13767 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
13768 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
13769 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
13770 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
13771
13772 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
13773 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
13774 always reject numbers >= n.
13775
13776 *Bodo Moeller*
13777
13778 * In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
13779 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
13780 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
13781 variable) is not atomic.
13782
13783 *Bodo Moeller*
13784
13785 * In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
13786 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
13787 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
13788
13789 *Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>*
13790
13791 * Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
13792
13793 *Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>*
13794
13795 * Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
13796 little-endian MIPS.
13797
13798 *Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>*
13799
13800 * Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
13801
13802 *Richard Levitte*
13803
13804 ### Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
13805
13806 * Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
13807 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
13808 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
13809 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
13810 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
13811 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
13812 to traverse all of 'state'.
13813
13814 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
13815 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
13816 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
13817
13818 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
13819 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
13820
13821 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
13822 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
13823 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
13824 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
13825 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
13826 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
13827 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
13828 further strengthens the PRNG.
13829
13830 *Bodo Moeller*
13831
13832 * Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
13833
13834 *Andy Polyakov*
13835
13836 * When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
13837 an error message in this case.
13838
13839 *Lutz Jaenicke*
13840
13841 * Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
13842
13843 *Steve Henson*
13844
13845 * In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
13846 positive and less than q.
13847
13848 *Bodo Moeller*
13849
13850 * Don't change `*pointer` in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
13851 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
13852 that itself.
13853
13854 *Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>*
13855
13856 * Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
13857 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
13858
13859 *Bodo Moeller*
13860
13861 * Fix OAEP check.
13862
13863 *Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller*
13864
13865 * The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
13866 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
13867 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
13868 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
13869 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
13870 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
13871 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
13872 paper.)
13873
13874 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
13875 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
13876 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
13877 detect the supposedly ignored error.
13878
13879 Both problems are now fixed.
13880
13881 *Bodo Moeller*
13882
13883 * In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
13884 (previously it was 1024).
13885
13886 *Bodo Moeller*
13887
13888 * Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
13889 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
13890
13891 *Steve Henson*
13892
13893 * Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
13894
13895 *Steve Henson*
13896
13897 * Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
13898 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
13899 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
13900
13901 *Steve Henson*
13902
13903 * In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
13904 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
13905 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
13906 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
13907 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
13908 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
13909 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
13910 environment variables.
13911
13912 * Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
13913 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
13914 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
13915
13916 *Bodo Moeller*
13917
13918 * In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
13919 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
13920 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
13921 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
13922 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
13923 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
13924
13925 *Bodo Moeller*
13926
13927 * Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
13928 versions of 'test'.
13929
13930 *Bodo Moeller*
13931
13932 ### Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
13933
13934 * Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
13935
13936 *Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>*
13937
13938 * Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
13939 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
13940 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
13941 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
13942 CygWin.
13943
13944 *Richard Levitte*
13945
13946 * Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
13947 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
13948 amount of data available.
13949
13950 *Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org*
13951
13952 *This change does not apply to 0.9.7.*
13953
13954 * Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
13955 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
13956 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
13957 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
13958
13959 *Bodo Moeller*
13960
13961 * Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
13962 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
13963 and UnixWare.
13964
13965 *Richard Levitte*
13966
13967 * Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
13968 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
13969 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
13970 <http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz>).
13971
13972 *Ulf Moeller*
13973
13974 * MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
13975
13976 *Andy Polyakov*
13977
13978 * Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
13979
13980 *Richard Levitte*
13981
13982 * Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
13983 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
13984
13985 *Steve Henson*
13986
13987 *This change does not apply to 0.9.7.*
13988
13989 * Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
13990 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
13991 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
13992 (but broken) behaviour.
13993
13994 *Steve Henson*
13995
13996 * Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
13997 it when found.
13998
13999 *Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte*
14000
14001 * Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
14002 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
14003
14004 *Bodo Moeller*
14005
14006 * Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
14007 did not exist.
14008
14009 *Bodo Moeller*
14010
14011 * Replace rdtsc with `_emit` statements for VC++ version 5.
14012
14013 *Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>*
14014
14015 * Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
14016
14017 *Richard Levitte*
14018
14019 * In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
14020 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
14021
14022 *Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>*
14023
14024 * Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
14025 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
14026 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
14027
14028 *Steve Henson*
14029
14030 * Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
14031 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
14032
14033 *Ulf Moeller*
14034
14035 * Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
14036 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
14037
14038 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
14039
14040 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
14041
14042 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
14043 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
14044 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
14045 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
14046
14047 *Bodo Moeller*
14048
14049 * Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
14050
14051 *Lutz Jaenicke*
14052
14053 * Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
14054 *Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
14055 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>*
14056
14057 * Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
14058 was empty.
14059
14060 *Steve Henson*
14061
14062 *This change does not apply to 0.9.7.*
14063
14064 * Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
14065 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
14066 but the code is actually correct.
14067
14068 *Steve Henson*
14069
14070 * Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
14071 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
14072 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
14073 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
14074 and leaves the highest bit random.
14075
14076 *Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller*
14077
14078 * In the `NCONF_...`-based implementations for `CONF_...` queries
14079 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
14080 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
14081 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
14082 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
14083 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
14084 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
14085
14086 *Bodo Moeller*
14087
14088 * Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
14089
14090 *Ulf Moeller*
14091
14092 * Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
14093 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
14094
14095 *Steve Henson*
14096
14097 * Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
14098 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
14099 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
14100 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
14101 headers.
14102
14103 *Richard Levitte*
14104
14105 * Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
14106 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
14107 and break the signature.
14108
14109 *Steve Henson*
14110
14111 *This change does not apply to 0.9.7.*
14112
14113 * Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
14114 DH ciphersuites.
14115
14116 *Steve Henson*
14117
14118 * Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
14119 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
14120 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
14121 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
14122 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
14123
14124 *Bodo Moeller*
14125
14126 * Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
14127
14128 *"Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>*
14129
14130 * ./config script fixes.
14131
14132 *Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte*
14133
14134 * Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
14135
14136 *Bodo Moeller*
14137
14138 * Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
14139 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
14140 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
14141 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
14142
14143 *Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>*
14144
14145 * Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
14146 call failed, free the DSA structure.
14147
14148 *Bodo Moeller*
14149
14150 * Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
14151 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
14152
14153 *Steve Henson*
14154
14155 * Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
14156 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
14157 when writing a 32767 byte record.
14158
14159 *Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>*
14160
14161 * In `RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt` and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
14162 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting `rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}`.
14163
14164 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
14165 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
14166 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
14167 *Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
14168 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>*
14169
14170 * Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
14171
14172 *Bodo Moeller*
14173
14174 * Use better test patterns in bntest.
14175
14176 *Ulf Möller*
14177
14178 * rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
14179
14180 *Ulf Möller*
14181
14182 * BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
14183
14184 *Bodo Moeller*
14185
14186 * Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
14187 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
14188
14189 *Bodo Moeller*
14190
14191 * Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
14192 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
14193 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
14194 result of the server certificate verification.)
14195
14196 *Lutz Jaenicke*
14197
14198 * Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
14199 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
14200 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
14201
14202 *Bodo Moeller*
14203
14204 * Fix SSL_peek:
14205 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
14206 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
14207 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
14208 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
14209 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
14210 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
14211 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
14212 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
14213
14214 *Bodo Moeller*
14215
14216 * Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
14217 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
14218 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
14219 happening the other way round.
14220
14221 *Geoff Thorpe*
14222
14223 * Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
14224 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
14225
14226 *Bodo Moeller*
14227
14228 * Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
14229 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
14230 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
14231 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
14232
14233 *Richard Levitte*
14234
14235 * Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
14236
14237 *Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>*
14238
14239 * Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
14240
14241 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
14242 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
14243 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
14244 that.
14245
14246 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
14247
14248 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
14249
14250 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
14251 static ones.
14252
14253 *Richard Levitte*
14254
14255 * Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
14256
14257 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
14258 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
14259 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
14260 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
14261
14262 *Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>*
14263
14264 * Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
14265 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
14266 matter what.
14267
14268 *Richard Levitte*
14269
14270 * Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
14271
14272 *Lutz Jaenicke*
14273
14274 ### Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
14275
14276 * In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
14277 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
14278 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
14279 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
14280 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
14281 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
14282 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
14283 by the Finished messages.
14284
14285 *Bodo Moeller*
14286
14287 * More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
14288
14289 *Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>*
14290
14291 * For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
14292 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
14293 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
14294 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
14295 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
14296 appropriately.
14297
14298 *Steve Henson*
14299
14300 * Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
14301 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
14302 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
14303 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
14304 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
14305 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
14306 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
14307 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
14308 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
14309 together.
14310
14311 *Steve Henson*
14312
14313 * On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
14314 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
14315 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
14316 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
14317
14318 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
14319 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
14320 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
14321 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
14322 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
14323 the answer.
14324
14325 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
14326 been tested well enough.
14327
14328 *Richard Levitte*
14329
14330 * Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
14331 it can return incorrect results.
14332 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
14333 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
14334
14335 *Bodo Moeller*
14336
14337 * Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
14338 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
14339 include zero length content when signing messages.
14340
14341 *Steve Henson*
14342
14343 * New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
14344 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
14345
14346 *Bodo Möller*
14347
14348 * Add DSO method for VMS.
14349
14350 *Richard Levitte*
14351
14352 * Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
14353 wrong sign.
14354
14355 *Ulf Möller*
14356
14357 * Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
14358 packages. The default package contains applications, application
14359 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
14360 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
14361 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
14362 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
14363
14364 *Richard Levitte*
14365
14366 * Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
14367
14368 *Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>*
14369
14370 * Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
14371
14372 *NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>*
14373
14374 * Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
14375 random number < q in the DSA library.
14376
14377 *Ulf Möller*
14378
14379 * New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
14380 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
14381 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
14382 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
14383 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
14384 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
14385 just makes things more complicated.)
14386
14387 *Bodo Moeller*
14388
14389 * Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
14390 from EGD.
14391
14392 *Ben Laurie*
14393
14394 * Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req` and `x509`
14395 work better on such systems.
14396
14397 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>*
14398
14399 * Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
14400 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
14401 keyid to the certificates aux info.
14402
14403 *Steve Henson*
14404
14405 * Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
14406 if there was more than one signature.
14407
14408 *Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>*
14409
14410 * Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
14411 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
14412 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
14413 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
14414
14415 *Richard Levitte*
14416
14417 * Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
14418 rather than always using the current time.
14419
14420 *Steve Henson*
14421
14422 * Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
14423 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
14424 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
14425 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
14426 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
14427 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
14428
14429 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
14430 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
14431
14432 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
14433
14434 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
14435 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
14436 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
14437 the same hash value.
14438
14439 As a result various functions (which were all internal
14440 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
14441 structure. This will break anything that messed round
14442 with X509_STORE internally.
14443
14444 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
14445 exact match, rather than just subject name.
14446
14447 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
14448 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
14449 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
14450 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
14451 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
14452 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
14453 entirely (maybe later...).
14454
14455 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
14456
14457 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
14458 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
14459 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
14460 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
14461 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
14462 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
14463 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
14464 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
14465
14466 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
14467 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
14468
14469 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
14470 to customise the verify behaviour.
14471
14472 *Steve Henson*
14473
14474 * Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
14475 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
14476
14477 *Steve Henson*
14478
14479 * When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
14480 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
14481 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
14482 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
14483 request is improperly encoded.
14484
14485 *Steve Henson*
14486
14487 * For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
14488 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
14489 BIO_write(b, ...).
14490
14491 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
14492
14493 *Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr*
14494
14495 * Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
14496 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
14497 words set to zero.)
14498
14499 *Bodo Moeller*
14500
14501 * Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
14502 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
14503 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
14504
14505 *Bodo Moeller*
14506
14507 * New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
14508 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
14509 BIO/fp routines also added.
14510
14511 *Steve Henson*
14512
14513 * New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
14514
14515 *Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>*
14516
14517 * A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
14518 Nuron (<http://www.nuron.com/>) and is now available in
14519 demos/state_machine.
14520
14521 *Ben Laurie*
14522
14523 * New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
14524 generation and verification.
14525
14526 *Steve Henson*
14527
14528 * Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
14529 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
14530 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
14531 encode and decode it manually.
14532
14533 *Steve Henson*
14534
14535 * Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
14536 compile under VC++.
14537
14538 *Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>*
14539
14540 * ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
14541 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
14542 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
14543
14544 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>*
14545
14546 * Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
14547 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
14548 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
14549 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
14550 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
14551
14552 *Steve Henson*
14553
14554 * Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
14555
14556 *Richard Levitte*
14557
14558 * Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
14559 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
14560 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
14561
14562 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
14563 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
14564 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
14565 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
14566 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
14567 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
14568 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
14569 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
14570
14571 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
14572 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
14573
14574 On Win32, the `LOG_*` levels are mapped according to this:
14575
14576 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
14577 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
14578 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
14579
14580 *Richard Levitte*
14581
14582 * Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
14583 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
14584 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
14585 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
14586
14587 *Richard Levitte*
14588
14589 * MD4 implemented.
14590
14591 *Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte*
14592
14593 * Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
14594
14595 *Richard Levitte*
14596
14597 * The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
14598 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
14599 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
14600 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
14601 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
14602 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
14603 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
14604 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
14605 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
14606 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
14607 short or long names are found.
14608
14609 *Steve Henson*
14610
14611 * Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
14612
14613 *Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>*
14614
14615 * Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
14616 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
14617 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
14618 version rollback attacks was not effective.
14619
14620 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
14621 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
14622 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
14623 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
14624
14625 *Bodo Moeller*
14626
14627 * Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
14628 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
14629 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
14630
14631 *Richard Levitte*
14632
14633 * New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
14634 these print out strings and name structures based on various
14635 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
14636 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
14637 to allow the various flags to be set.
14638
14639 *Steve Henson*
14640
14641 * Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
14642 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
14643 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
14644 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
14645 dates to be checked.
14646
14647 *Steve Henson*
14648
14649 * Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
14650 negative public key encodings) on by default,
14651 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
14652
14653 *Steve Henson*
14654
14655 * New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
14656 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
14657 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
14658
14659 *Steve Henson*
14660
14661 * crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (`CRYPTO_w_[un]lock`),
14662 not read locks (`CRYPTO_r_[un]lock`).
14663
14664 *Bodo Moeller*
14665
14666 * A first attempt at creating official support for shared
14667 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
14668 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
14669 are always statically linked for now, but there are
14670 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
14671 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
14672
14673 *Richard Levitte*
14674
14675 * Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
14676 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
14677 Random Numbers.
14678
14679 *Ulf Möller*
14680
14681 * Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
14682 DSA key.
14683
14684 *Steve Henson*
14685
14686 * New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
14687 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
14688 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
14689 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
14690 form signing output easier to verify.
14691
14692 *Steve Henson*
14693
14694 * Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
14695
14696 *Steve Henson*
14697
14698 * New ASN1 functions, `i2c_*` and `c2i_*` for INTEGER and BIT
14699 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
14700 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
14701 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
14702 are needed because all other string types have virtually
14703 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
14704 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
14705 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
14706 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
14707 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
14708
14709 *Steve Henson*
14710
14711 * Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
14712
14713 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
14714 the syntax given in [crypto/objects/README.md](crypto/objects/README.md).
14715 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
14716 obj_mac.h.
14717 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
14718 obj_mac.h.
14719
14720 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
14721 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
14722 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
14723 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
14724 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
14725 consistent name changes.
14726
14727 *Richard Levitte*
14728
14729 * Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
14730
14731 *Bodo Moeller*
14732
14733 * Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
14734 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
14735 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
14736 environment variable, or the default random state file.
14737
14738 *Richard Levitte*
14739
14740 * mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
14741 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
14742 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
14743 of safestack.h .
14744
14745 *Steve Henson*
14746
14747 * Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
14748 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
14749 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
14750 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
14751
14752 *Steve Henson*
14753
14754 * Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
14755 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
14756 a "stack macro" of the form `SKM_<name>(type, a, b)`. The
14757 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
14758 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
14759 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
14760 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
14761 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
14762 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
14763 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
14764 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
14765
14766 *Steve Henson*
14767
14768 * When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
14769 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
14770 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
14771 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
14772 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
14773 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
14774 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
14775 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
14776 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
14777 algorithm to openssl-dev.
14778
14779 *Steve Henson*
14780
14781 * The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
14782 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
14783 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
14784
14785 *Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>*
14786
14787 * New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
14788 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
14789 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
14790 omit any duplicate addresses.
14791
14792 *Steve Henson*
14793
14794 * Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
14795 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
14796
14797 *Bodo Moeller*
14798
14799 * Increase maximum window size in `BN_mod_exp_...` to 6 bits instead of 5
14800 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
14801 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
14802 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
14803 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
14804
14805 *Bodo Moeller*
14806
14807 * Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
14808 software:
14809 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
14810 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
14811 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
14812 Free => OPENSSL_free
14813
14814 *Richard Levitte*
14815
14816 * New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
14817 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
14818
14819 *Bodo Moeller*
14820
14821 * CygWin32 support.
14822
14823 *John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>*
14824
14825 * The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
14826 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
14827 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
14828 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
14829 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
14830 approach.
14831
14832 *Geoff Thorpe*
14833
14834 * The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
14835 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
14836 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
14837 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
14838 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
14839 lots of the code, especially `_cmp` operations which should normally
14840 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
14841
14842 *Geoff Thorpe*
14843
14844 * When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
14845 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
14846 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
14847 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
14848 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
14849 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
14850 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
14851 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
14852 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
14853 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
14854 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
14855
14856 *Bodo Moeller*
14857
14858 * In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
14859 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
14860 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
14861 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
14862
14863 *Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke*
14864
14865 * Major EVP API cipher revision.
14866 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
14867 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
14868 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
14869 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
14870
14871 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
14872 ciphers.
14873
14874 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
14875 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
14876 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
14877 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
14878
14879 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
14880
14881 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
14882 of macros.
14883
14884 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
14885 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
14886 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
14887 flags.
14888
14889 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
14890 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
14891 any installed hardware versions can.
14892
14893 *Steve Henson*
14894
14895 * Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
14896 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
14897 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
14898 number.
14899
14900 *Bodo Moeller*
14901
14902 * Call dh_tmp_cb (set by `..._TMP_DH_CB`) with correct 'is_export' flag;
14903 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
14904 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
14905 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
14906
14907 *Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra*
14908
14909 * Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
14910 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
14911
14912 *Steve Henson*
14913
14914 * Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
14915 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
14916
14917 *Richard Levitte*
14918
14919 * Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
14920 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
14921 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
14922 features.
14923
14924 *Steve Henson*
14925
14926 * Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
14927
14928 *Ulf Möller*
14929
14930 * Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
14931 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
14932 but no ssl client purpose.
14933
14934 *Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>*
14935
14936 * Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
14937 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
14938 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
14939 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
14940 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
14941 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
14942 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
14943 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
14944 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
14945 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
14946 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
14947
14948 *Steve Henson*
14949
14950 * Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
14951 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
14952 be obtained from the error queue.
14953
14954 *Bodo Moeller*
14955
14956 * Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
14957 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
14958 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
14959 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
14960
14961 *Bodo Moeller*
14962
14963 * Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
14964
14965 *Ulf Möller*
14966
14967 * RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
14968 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
14969 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
14970 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
14971 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
14972
14973 *Geoff Thorpe*
14974
14975 * Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
14976 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
14977 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
14978 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
14979 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
14980
14981 *Geoff Thorpe*
14982
14983 * New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
14984 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
14985 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
14986 may not be NULL.
14987
14988 *Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller*
14989
14990 * CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
14991 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
14992 new functions (`NCONF_*`, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
14993 old `CONF_*` functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
14994 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
14995 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
14996 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
14997 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
14998 configuration file in XML format, for example), called `_CONF_*`,
14999 or "the configuration storage API"...
15000
15001 The new configuration file reading functions are:
15002
15003 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
15004 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
15005
15006 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
15007
15008 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
15009
15010 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
15011 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
15012 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
15013 `NCONF_dump_*` dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
15014 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
15015 arguments as the old `CONF_*` functions with the exception of the
15016 first that must be a `CONF *` instead of a `LHASH *`.
15017
15018 To make it easier to use the new classes with the old `CONF_*` functions,
15019 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
15020
15021 *Richard Levitte*
15022
15023 * Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
15024 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
15025 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
15026 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
15027
15028 *Bodo Moeller*
15029
15030 * Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
15031 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
15032 them in a portable way.
15033
15034 *Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte*
15035
15036 ### Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
15037
15038 * Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
15039
15040 * Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
15041 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
15042
15043 * Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
15044 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
15045 *Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
15046 <attili@amaxo.com>*
15047
15048 * Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
15049 was larger than the MD block size.
15050
15051 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>*
15052
15053 * Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
15054 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
15055 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
15056 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
15057 components.
15058
15059 *Steve Henson*
15060
15061 * des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
15062 *Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
15063 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>*
15064
15065 * Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
15066 discouraged.
15067
15068 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>*
15069
15070 * For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
15071 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
15072 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
15073 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
15074 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
15075 Additional arguments are always ignored.
15076
15077 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
15078 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
15079
15080 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
15081 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
15082
15083 *Bodo Moeller*
15084
15085 * Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
15086
15087 *Bodo Moeller*
15088
15089 * For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
15090 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
15091 its own key.
15092 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
15093 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
15094 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
15095 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
15096
15097 *Bodo Moeller*
15098
15099 * New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
15100 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
15101 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
15102 does not suppress any output.
15103
15104 *Richard Levitte*
15105
15106 * Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
15107 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
15108 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
15109 with all the associated security issues.
15110
15111 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
15112 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
15113 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
15114 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
15115 use the value in the default purpose.
15116
15117 *Steve Henson*
15118
15119 * Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
15120 and fix a memory leak.
15121
15122 *Steve Henson*
15123
15124 * In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
15125 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
15126 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
15127 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
15128
15129 *Bodo Moeller*
15130
15131 * In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
15132 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
15133 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
15134 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
15135
15136 *Bodo Moeller*
15137
15138 * Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
15139 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
15140 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
15141
15142 *Bodo Moeller*
15143
15144 * Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
15145 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
15146
15147 *Bodo Moeller*
15148
15149 * The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
15150 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
15151 which was free.
15152
15153 *Steve Henson*
15154
15155 * In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
15156 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
15157
15158 *Bodo Moeller*
15159
15160 * Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
15161 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
15162 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
15163
15164 *Bodo Moeller*
15165
15166 * Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
15167 number generation fails.
15168
15169 *Bodo Moeller*
15170
15171 * New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
15172
15173 *Bodo Moeller*
15174
15175 * Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
15176
15177 *Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>*
15178
15179 * Assembler module support for Mingw32.
15180
15181 *Ulf Möller*
15182
15183 * Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
15184
15185 *Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous*
15186
15187 * Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
15188
15189 *Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>*
15190
15191 ### Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
15192
15193 * PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
15194 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
15195
15196 *Steve Henson*
15197
15198 * In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
15199
15200 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>*
15201
15202 * BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
15203 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
15204
15205 *Ulf Möller*
15206
15207 * Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
15208 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
15209 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
15210 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
15211 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
15212
15213 *Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>*
15214
15215 * Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
15216 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
15217 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
15218 for example.
15219
15220 *Steve Henson*
15221
15222 * Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
15223 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
15224 and has to call `..._free`; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
15225 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
15226 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
15227 counter, some don't.)
15228 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
15229 counters or duplicate objects.
15230
15231 *Steve Henson*
15232
15233 * Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
15234 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
15235
15236 *Steve Henson*
15237
15238 * Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
15239 *Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
15240 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>*
15241
15242 * Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
15243 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
15244 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
15245 or -rand.
15246
15247 *Ulf Möller*
15248
15249 * Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
15250 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
15251
15252 *Steve Henson*
15253
15254 * Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
15255 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
15256 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
15257 cipher list.
15258
15259 *Steve Henson*
15260
15261 * Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
15262 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
15263 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
15264
15265 *Steve Henson*
15266
15267 * `..._ctrl` functions now have corresponding `..._callback_ctrl` functions
15268 where the `void *` argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
15269 Previously `void *` was abused to point to functions, which works on
15270 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
15271 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
15272 should work without changes.
15273
15274 *Richard Levitte*
15275
15276 * `<openssl/opensslconf.h>` (which is created by Configure) now contains
15277 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
15278 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
15279 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol `OPENSSL_..._DEFINES`
15280 must be defined. E.g.,
15281 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
15282 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
15283 defines all pertinent `NO_<algo>` symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
15284
15285 *Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller*
15286
15287 * Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
15288 record layer.
15289
15290 *Bodo Moeller*
15291
15292 * Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
15293 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
15294 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
15295
15296 *Steve Henson*
15297
15298 * Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
15299 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
15300 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
15301 request header lines. Some software needs this.
15302
15303 *Steve Henson*
15304
15305 * Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
15306 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
15307 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
15308 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
15309 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
15310 is prompted for as usual.
15311
15312 *Steve Henson*
15313
15314 * Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
15315 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
15316 autodetect the card and use it if present.
15317
15318 *Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.*
15319
15320 * Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
15321 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
15322 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
15323 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
15324
15325 *Steve Henson*
15326
15327 * HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
15328
15329 *Andy Polyakov*
15330
15331 * Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
15332 of seed file.
15333
15334 *Steve Henson*
15335
15336 * New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
15337
15338 *Bodo Moeller*
15339
15340 * Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
15341
15342 *Steve Henson*
15343
15344 * Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
15345 bits.
15346
15347 *Ulf Möller*
15348
15349 * More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
15350
15351 *Ulf Möller*
15352
15353 * ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
15354
15355 *Andy Polyakov*
15356
15357 * Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
15358 equal (it gave wrong results if `(rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0)`.
15359
15360 *Ulf Möller*
15361
15362 * Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
15363 options to produce them.
15364
15365 *Steve Henson*
15366
15367 * New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
15368 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
15369
15370 *Ulf Möller*
15371
15372 * Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
15373 for p == 0.
15374
15375 *Ulf Möller*
15376
15377 * Change the `SSLeay_add_all_*()` functions to `OpenSSL_add_all_*()` and
15378 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
15379 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
15380 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
15381 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
15382 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
15383 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
15384
15385 *Steve Henson*
15386
15387 * Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
15388
15389 *Steve Henson*
15390
15391 * Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
15392 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
15393 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
15394
15395 *Bodo Moeller*
15396
15397 * Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
15398
15399 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>*
15400
15401 * Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
15402 use `void *` instead of `char *` in lhash.
15403
15404 *Ulf Möller*
15405
15406 * Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
15407 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
15408 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
15409 has already seen).
15410
15411 *Bodo Moeller*
15412
15413 * Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
15414 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
15415
15416 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
15417 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
15418 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
15419 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
15420 generation becomes much faster.
15421
15422 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
15423 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
15424 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
15425 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
15426 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
15427 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
15428 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
15429 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
15430 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
15431 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
15432
15433 *Bodo Moeller*
15434
15435 * New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
15436 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
15437 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
15438 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
15439 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
15440 trial division stage.
15441
15442 *Bodo Moeller*
15443
15444 * Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
15445 as ASN1_TIME.
15446
15447 *Steve Henson*
15448
15449 * New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
15450
15451 *Steve Henson*
15452
15453 * New function BN_pseudo_rand().
15454
15455 *Ulf Möller*
15456
15457 * Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
15458 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
15459 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
15460 the comments.
15461
15462 *Ulf Möller*
15463
15464 * Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
15465 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
15466 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
15467
15468 *Bodo Moeller*
15469
15470 * The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
15471 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
15472 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
15473
15474 *Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller*
15475
15476 * Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
15477 used `char *` instead of `void *` and had casts all over the place.
15478
15479 *Steve Henson*
15480
15481 * Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
15482
15483 *Ulf Möller*
15484
15485 * Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
15486 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
15487 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
15488 Rabin-Miller iterations.
15489
15490 *Ulf Möller*
15491
15492 * Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
15493 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
15494 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
15495
15496 *Ulf Möller*
15497
15498 * Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
15499 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
15500 (instead of parameters) in future.
15501
15502 *Steve Henson*
15503
15504 * Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
15505 when a new cipher list is set.
15506
15507 *Steve Henson*
15508
15509 * Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
15510 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
15511 wrong.
15512
15513 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
15514 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
15515 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
15516
15517 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
15518 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
15519 *A-Za-z0-9*, ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
15520 an error is flagged.
15521
15522 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
15523 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
15524 the readability was also increased :-)
15525
15526 *Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>*
15527
15528 * Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
15529 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
15530 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
15531 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
15532 as the root CA.
15533
15534 *Steve Henson*
15535
15536 * Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
15537 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
15538
15539 *Steve Henson*
15540
15541 * Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
15542 `X509_*()` to `X509at_*()` on the grounds that they don't handle X509
15543 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
15544 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
15545 instead.
15546
15547 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
15548 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
15549 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
15550 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
15551 because they handle more complex structures.)
15552
15553 *Steve Henson*
15554
15555 * Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
15556 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
15557 NO_RSA in `ssl/s2*.c`.
15558
15559 *Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller*
15560
15561 * Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
15562 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
15563 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
15564 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
15565 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
15566 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
15567 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
15568
15569 *Ulf Möller*
15570
15571 * Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
15572 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
15573 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
15574 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
15575 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
15576
15577 *Bodo Moeller*
15578
15579 * Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
15580
15581 *Bodo Moeller*
15582
15583 * New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
15584 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
15585 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
15586 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
15587 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
15588 to use this.
15589
15590 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
15591 code.
15592
15593 *Steve Henson*
15594
15595 * Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
15596 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
15597 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
15598 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
15599
15600 *Steve Henson*
15601
15602 * Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
15603
15604 *Ulf Möller*
15605
15606 * Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
15607 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
15608 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
15609 international characters are used.
15610
15611 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
15612 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
15613 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
15614 in ASN1 order.
15615
15616 *Steve Henson*
15617
15618 * Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
15619 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
15620 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
15621 request.
15622
15623 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
15624 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
15625 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
15626 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
15627 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
15628 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
15629
15630 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
15631 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
15632 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
15633 be handled by the string table functions.
15634
15635 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
15636 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
15637 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
15638 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
15639 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
15640 types at all.
15641
15642 *Steve Henson*
15643
15644 * Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
15645 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
15646 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
15647 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
15648 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
15649
15650 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
15651 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
15652 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
15653 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
15654
15655 *Bodo Moeller*
15656
15657 * Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
15658 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
15659 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
15660 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
15661 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
15662 SHA1.
15663
15664 *Andy Polyakov*
15665
15666 * Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
15667 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
15668 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
15669 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
15670 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
15671 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
15672 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
15673 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
15674
15675 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
15676 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
15677 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
15678
15679 *Steve Henson*
15680
15681 * Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
15682 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
15683 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
15684 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
15685 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
15686 support to pkcs8 application.
15687
15688 *Steve Henson*
15689
15690 * SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
15691 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
15692 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
15693 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
15694 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
15695 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
15696
15697 *Bodo Moeller*
15698
15699 * In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
15700 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
15701 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
15702 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
15703 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
15704 consistency.
15705
15706 *Bodo Moeller*
15707
15708 * Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
15709 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
15710 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
15711 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
15712 example.
15713
15714 *Steve Henson*
15715
15716 * Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
15717 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
15718 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
15719 and any application specific purposes.
15720
15721 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
15722 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
15723 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
15724 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
15725 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
15726 if the certificate is self signed.
15727
15728 *Steve Henson*
15729
15730 * Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
15731 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
15732
15733 *Steve Henson*
15734
15735 * Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
15736 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
15737 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
15738 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
15739
15740 *Steve Henson*
15741
15742 * Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
15743 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
15744 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
15745 Update documentation.
15746
15747 *Steve Henson*
15748
15749 * Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
15750 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
15751 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
15752 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
15753 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
15754
15755 *Steve Henson*
15756
15757 * Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
15758 for details.
15759
15760 *Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>*
15761
15762 * Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
15763 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
15764 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
15765 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
15766 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
15767 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
15768 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
15769 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
15770 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
15771 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
15772
15773 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
15774
15775 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
15776 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
15777 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
15778 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
15779 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
15780
15781 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
15782 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
15783 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
15784 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
15785 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
15786 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
15787 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
15788 request additional information:
15789 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
15790 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
15791
15792 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
15793 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
15794 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
15795 options.
15796
15797 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
15798 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
15799
15800 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
15801 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
15802 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
15803
15804 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
15805
15806 *Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller*
15807
15808 * Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
15809 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
15810 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
15811 algorithm.
15812
15813 *Steve Henson*
15814
15815 * Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
15816 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
15817
15818 *Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson*
15819
15820 * Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
15821 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
15822 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
15823 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
15824 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
15825 included in OpenSSL.
15826
15827 *Steve Henson*
15828
15829 * Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
15830 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
15831 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
15832 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
15833 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
15834 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
15835
15836 *Bodo Moeller*
15837
15838 * New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
15839 PKCS12 structure.
15840
15841 *Steve Henson*
15842
15843 * Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
15844 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
15845 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
15846 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
15847 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
15848 structure.
15849
15850 *Steve Henson*
15851
15852 * Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
15853 need initialising.
15854
15855 *Steve Henson*
15856
15857 * Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
15858 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
15859 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
15860 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
15861 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
15862 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
15863 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
15864 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
15865 be maintained manually.
15866
15867 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
15868 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
15869 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
15870 Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
15871 work because people forget to call this function.
15872 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
15873 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
15874 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
15875
15876 *Steve Henson*
15877
15878 * Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
15879 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
15880 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
15881 should be discouraged from doing it.
15882
15883 *Ben Laurie*
15884
15885 * Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
15886 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
15887 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
15888 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
15889 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
15890 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
15891
15892 *Steve Henson*
15893
15894 * Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
15895 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
15896 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
15897
15898 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
15899 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
15900 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
15901
15902 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
15903 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
15904 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
15905 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
15906 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
15907 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
15908
15909 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
15910 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
15911 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
15912
15913 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
15914 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
15915 and vice versa.
15916
15917 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
15918 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
15919 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
15920 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
15921
15922 *Steve Henson*
15923
15924 * Support for the authority information access extension.
15925
15926 *Steve Henson*
15927
15928 * Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
15929 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
15930 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
15931 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
15932 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
15933 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
15934 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
15935 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
15936 keys so we should be OK.
15937
15938 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
15939 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
15940 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
15941 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
15942 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
15943 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
15944 stay in the name of compatibility.
15945
15946 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
15947 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
15948 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
15949
15950 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
15951 Also rename the `EVP_PKEY_get_*()` to `EVP_PKEY_rget_*()`
15952 (renamed to `EVP_PKEY_get1_*()` in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
15953 `EVP_PKEY_rset_*()` functions (renamed to `EVP_PKEY_set1_*()`)
15954 that do the same as the `EVP_PKEY_assign_*()` except they up the
15955 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
15956 supplied key).
15957
15958 *Steve Henson*
15959
15960 * Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
15961 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
15962 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
15963 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
15964 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
15965 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
15966 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
15967 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
15968 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
15969 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
15970 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
15971 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
15972 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
15973
15974 *Steve Henson*
15975
15976 * Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
15977
15978 *Steve Henson*
15979
15980 * First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
15981 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
15982 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
15983 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
15984 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
15985 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
15986 single self signed certificate. This means that:
15987 openssl verify ss.pem
15988 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
15989 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
15990 is OK.
15991
15992 *Steve Henson*
15993
15994 * For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
15995 (and add it to external session representation).
15996 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
15997 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
15998 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
15999 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
16000 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
16001 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
16002 security holes.
16003
16004 *Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke*
16005
16006 * Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
16007 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
16008 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
16009
16010 *Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson*
16011
16012 * Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
16013 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
16014 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
16015
16016 *Steve Henson*
16017
16018 * New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
16019 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
16020 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
16021 code.
16022
16023 *Steve Henson*
16024
16025 * SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
16026 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
16027
16028 *Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>*
16029
16030 * Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
16031 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
16032 certificate auxiliary information.
16033
16034 *Steve Henson*
16035
16036 * Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
16037 the 'enc' command.
16038
16039 *Steve Henson*
16040
16041 * Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
16042 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
16043 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
16044 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
16045 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
16046 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
16047 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
16048
16049 *Richard Levitte*
16050
16051 * Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
16052 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
16053
16054 *Steve Henson*
16055
16056 * Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
16057 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
16058 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
16059 manpages and fix a few bugs.
16060
16061 *Steve Henson*
16062
16063 * Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
16064
16065 *Steve Henson*
16066
16067 * Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
16068 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
16069
16070 *Steve Henson*
16071
16072 * Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
16073 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
16074 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
16075 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
16076 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
16077 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
16078 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
16079 using the new 'x509' options.
16080
16081 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
16082 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
16083 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
16084 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
16085 for all purposes.
16086
16087 *Steve Henson*
16088
16089 * Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or `*BSD`).
16090 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
16091 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
16092 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
16093 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
16094
16095 *Mark Cox*
16096
16097 * Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
16098 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
16099 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
16100 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
16101 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
16102 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
16103 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
16104 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
16105 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
16106 the key length and effective key length are equal.
16107
16108 *Steve Henson*
16109
16110 * Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
16111 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
16112 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
16113 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
16114 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
16115 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
16116 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
16117
16118 *Steve Henson*
16119
16120 * Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
16121 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
16122 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
16123 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
16124 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
16125 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
16126 openssl.cnf for more info.
16127
16128 *Steve Henson*
16129
16130 * Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
16131 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
16132 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
16133 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
16134 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
16135 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
16136 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
16137 md should be large enough anyway.
16138
16139 *Bodo Moeller*
16140
16141 * New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
16142 for handling the random seed file.
16143
16144 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
16145 ca,
16146 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
16147 s_client,
16148 s_server,
16149 x509 (when signing).
16150 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
16151 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
16152 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
16153
16154 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
16155 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
16156 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
16157 that support '-rand'.
16158
16159 *Bodo Moeller*
16160
16161 * In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
16162 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
16163
16164 *Bodo Moeller*
16165
16166 * Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
16167 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
16168
16169 *Bill Perry*
16170
16171 * New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
16172 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
16173 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
16174 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
16175 is suitable.
16176
16177 *Steve Henson*
16178
16179 * Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
16180 macros are retained with an `M_` prefix. Code inside the library can
16181 use the `M_` macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
16182 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
16183
16184 *Steve Henson*
16185
16186 * Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
16187 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
16188 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
16189 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
16190 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
16191 print out all the purposes.
16192
16193 *Steve Henson*
16194
16195 * Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
16196 functions.
16197
16198 *Steve Henson*
16199
16200 * New `X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i()` functions. These will search
16201 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
16202 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
16203 single function call.
16204
16205 *Steve Henson*
16206
16207 * RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
16208 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
16209
16210 *Andy Polyakov*
16211
16212 * New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
16213 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
16214 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
16215
16216 *Steve Henson*
16217
16218 * Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
16219 when producing the local key id.
16220
16221 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
16222
16223 * New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
16224 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
16225 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
16226 "server.pem".
16227
16228 *Steve Henson*
16229
16230 * Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
16231 a public key to be input or output. For example:
16232 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
16233 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
16234
16235 *Steve Henson*
16236
16237 * Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
16238 in the message. This was handled by allowing
16239 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
16240
16241 *Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>*
16242
16243 * Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
16244 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
16245 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
16246
16247 *Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
16248
16249 * Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
16250 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
16251 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
16252 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
16253 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
16254 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
16255 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
16256 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
16257 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
16258 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
16259 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
16260 trivial: move one line.
16261
16262 *Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer)*
16263
16264 * Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
16265 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
16266 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
16267 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
16268 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
16269 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
16270 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
16271 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
16272 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
16273 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
16274 with an event loop for example.
16275
16276 *Steve Henson*
16277
16278 * Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
16279 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
16280 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
16281 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
16282 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
16283 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
16284 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
16285 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
16286 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
16287
16288 *Steve Henson*
16289
16290 * Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
16291 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
16292 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
16293 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
16294 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
16295 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
16296
16297 *Steve Henson*
16298
16299 * Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
16300 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
16301 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
16302
16303 *Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller*
16304
16305 * Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
16306 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
16307 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
16308 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
16309 key generation.
16310
16311 *Steve Henson*
16312
16313 * Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
16314 (still largely untested)
16315
16316 *Bodo Moeller*
16317
16318 * New function ASN1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
16319 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
16320
16321 *Steve Henson*
16322
16323 * New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
16324 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
16325
16326 *Steve Henson*
16327
16328 * Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
16329 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
16330 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
16331
16332 *Bodo Moeller*
16333
16334 * Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
16335 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
16336 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
16337 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
16338 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
16339
16340 *Steve Henson*
16341
16342 * RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
16343
16344 *Andy Polyakov*
16345
16346 * Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
16347 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
16348 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
16349 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
16350 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
16351 in ca.
16352
16353 *Steve Henson*
16354
16355 * Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
16356 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
16357 1.OU="Unit name 1"
16358 2.OU="Unit name 2"
16359 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
16360
16361 *Steve Henson*
16362
16363 * Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
16364 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
16365 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
16366 are otherwise ignored at present.
16367
16368 *Steve Henson*
16369
16370 * Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
16371 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
16372 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
16373 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
16374 copied until the next read.
16375
16376 *Steve Henson*
16377
16378 * Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
16379 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
16380 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
16381
16382 *Steve Henson*
16383
16384 * Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
16385 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
16386 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
16387 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
16388 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
16389 associated functions.
16390
16391 *Steve Henson*
16392
16393 * Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
16394 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
16395 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
16396 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
16397 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
16398 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
16399 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
16400 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
16401 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
16402 memory BIOs.
16403
16404 *Steve Henson*
16405
16406 * Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
16407 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
16408 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
16409 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
16410
16411 *Bodo Moeller*
16412
16413 * The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
16414 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
16415 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
16416 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
16417 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
16418 functionality.
16419
16420 *Steve Henson*
16421
16422 * Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
16423 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
16424 under Win32.
16425
16426 *Steve Henson*
16427
16428 * Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
16429 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
16430 extensions to be obtained and added.
16431
16432 *Steve Henson*
16433
16434 * -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
16435 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
16436
16437 *Bodo Moeller*
16438
16439 ### Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
16440
16441 * Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
16442
16443 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
16444
16445 * A few more `#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif` pairs for consistency.
16446
16447 *Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>*
16448
16449 * Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
16450 program.
16451
16452 *Steve Henson*
16453
16454 * New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
16455 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
16456 DH parameters contain its length).
16457
16458 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
16459 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
16460 where `p = 2*q + 1`), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
16461 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
16462 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
16463 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
16464 utter importance to use
16465 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
16466 or
16467 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
16468 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
16469 attacks may become possible!
16470
16471 *Bodo Moeller*
16472
16473 * Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
16474
16475 *Bodo Moeller*
16476
16477 * Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
16478 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
16479
16480 *Steve Henson*
16481
16482 * New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
16483 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
16484 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
16485 or long name.
16486
16487 *Steve Henson*
16488
16489 * Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
16490 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
16491 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
16492 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
16493 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
16494 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
16495 private key operations.
16496
16497 *Steve Henson*
16498
16499 * Added support for SPARC Linux.
16500
16501 *Andy Polyakov*
16502
16503 * pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
16504 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
16505 to
16506 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
16507 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
16508 The `PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}...` functions and macros now take an
16509 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
16510 the password callback is called.
16511
16512 *Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller*
16513
16514 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
16515
16516 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
16517 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
16518 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
16519 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
16520 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
16521 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
16522 this will work.
16523
16524 * The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
16525 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
16526 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
16527 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
16528 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
16529 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
16530
16531 *Bodo Moeller*
16532
16533 * MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
16534
16535 *Andy Polyakov*
16536
16537 * More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
16538 delete an unused file.
16539
16540 *Ulf Möller*
16541
16542 * Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
16543 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
16544 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
16545 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
16546
16547 *Steve Henson*
16548
16549 * Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
16550 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
16551 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
16552 of an error.
16553
16554 *Bodo Moeller*
16555
16556 * New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
16557 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
16558
16559 *Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller*
16560
16561 * Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
16562 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
16563 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
16564 comparison" warnings.
16565 3. Add `sk_<TYPE>_sort` to DEF file generator and do make update.
16566
16567 *Steve Henson*
16568
16569 * Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
16570 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
16571 derived keys are printed to stderr.
16572
16573 *Steve Henson*
16574
16575 * Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
16576
16577 *Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>*
16578
16579 * The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
16580 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
16581
16582 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
16583 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
16584 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
16585
16586 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
16587 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
16588 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
16589 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
16590 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
16591 this bug.
16592
16593 *Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>*
16594
16595 * Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
16596 The interface is as follows:
16597 Applications can use
16598 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
16599 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
16600 "off" is now the default.
16601 The library internally uses
16602 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
16603 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
16604 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
16605
16606 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
16607 even the default) are now avoided.
16608
16609 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
16610 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
16611 than just having a counter.
16612
16613 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
16614
16615 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
16616 extensions.
16617
16618 *Bodo Moeller*
16619
16620 * Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
16621 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
16622 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
16623 Initial "mode" flags are:
16624
16625 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
16626 a single record has been written.
16627 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
16628 retries use the same buffer location.
16629 (But all of the contents must be
16630 copied!)
16631
16632 *Bodo Moeller*
16633
16634 * Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
16635 worked.
16636
16637 * Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
16638
16639 *Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>*
16640
16641 * New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
16642 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
16643 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
16644
16645 *Steve Henson*
16646
16647 * Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
16648 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
16649 test programs.
16650
16651 *Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller*
16652
16653 * Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
16654 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
16655 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
16656 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
16657 point to the end.
16658 *Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>*
16659
16660 * Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
16661 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
16662 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
16663 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
16664 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
16665 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
16666
16667 *Steve Henson*
16668
16669 * Complete the `PEM_*` macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
16670 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
16671 necessary function names.
16672
16673 *Steve Henson*
16674
16675 * mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
16676 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
16677 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
16678 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
16679
16680 *Bodo Moeller*
16681
16682 * New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
16683 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
16684 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
16685
16686 *Steve Henson*
16687
16688 * New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
16689 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
16690 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
16691 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
16692 such programs?)
16693 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
16694 need locks.
16695
16696 *Bodo Moeller*
16697
16698 * Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
16699 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
16700 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
16701
16702 *Bodo Moeller*
16703
16704 * New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
16705 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
16706 appropriate.
16707
16708 *Bodo Moeller*
16709
16710 * Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
16711 for the encoded length.
16712
16713 *Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>*
16714
16715 * Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
16716
16717 *Steve Henson*
16718
16719 * Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
16720 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
16721 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
16722 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
16723
16724 *Steve Henson*
16725
16726 * Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
16727 *directory* in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
16728
16729 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
16730
16731 * Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
16732 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
16733 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
16734 unusual formatting.
16735
16736 *Steve Henson*
16737
16738 * Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
16739 to use the new extension code.
16740
16741 *Steve Henson*
16742
16743 * Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
16744 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
16745 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
16746 constant.
16747
16748 *Steve Henson*
16749
16750 * Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
16751 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
16752 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
16753
16754 *Bodo Moeller*
16755
16756 * DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
16757
16758 *Ben Laurie*
16759 lse
16760 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
16761 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
16762 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
16763 ndif
16764
16765 * When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
16766 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
16767 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
16768 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
16769
16770 *Ben Laurie*
16771
16772 * DES library cleanups.
16773
16774 *Ulf Möller*
16775
16776 * Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
16777 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
16778 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
16779 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
16780 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
16781 of v2.0.
16782
16783 *Steve Henson*
16784
16785 * Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
16786 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
16787
16788 *Bodo Moeller*
16789
16790 * Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
16791 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
16792 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
16793 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
16794 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
16795 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
16796 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
16797 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
16798 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
16799
16800 *Steve Henson*
16801
16802 * Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
16803 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
16804 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
16805 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
16806 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
16807 value doesn't matter.
16808
16809 *Steve Henson*
16810
16811 * Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
16812 support mutable.
16813
16814 *Ben Laurie*
16815
16816 * "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
16817
16818 *Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>*
16819 "linux-sparc" configuration.
16820
16821 *Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>*
16822
16823 * config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
16824
16825 *Ulf Möller*
16826
16827 * Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
16828 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
16829
16830 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>*
16831
16832 * Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
16833
16834 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>*
16835
16836 * Make callbacks for key generation use `void *` instead of `char *`.
16837
16838 *Ben Laurie*
16839
16840 * Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
16841
16842 *Ben Laurie*
16843
16844 * Additional typesafe stacks.
16845
16846 *Ben Laurie*
16847
16848 * New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
16849
16850 *Bodo Moeller*
16851
16852 ### Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
16853
16854 * New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
16855
16856 * Updated some demos.
16857
16858 *Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine*
16859
16860 * Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
16861
16862 *Wu Zhigang*
16863
16864 * Fix memory leak in conf.c.
16865
16866 *Steve Henson*
16867
16868 * Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
16869
16870 *Steve Henson*
16871
16872 * Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
16873 instead of using a fixed path.
16874
16875 *Bodo Moeller*
16876
16877 * SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
16878
16879 *Andy Polyakov*
16880
16881 * Improvements for VMS support.
16882
16883 *Richard Levitte*
16884
16885 ### Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
16886
16887 * Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
16888 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
16889
16890 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
16891
16892 * New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
16893 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
16894 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
16895 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
16896 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
16897 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
16898 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
16899 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
16900 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
16901 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
16902
16903 *Steve Henson*
16904
16905 * Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
16906 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
16907
16908 *Steve Henson*
16909
16910 * Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
16911 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
16912 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
16913 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
16914 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
16915
16916 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
16917
16918 *Bodo Moeller*
16919
16920 * Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
16921 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
16922 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
16923
16924 *Steve Henson*
16925
16926 * Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
16927
16928 *Ben Laurie*
16929
16930 * Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
16931 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
16932 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
16933 key elements as negative integers.
16934
16935 *Steve Henson*
16936
16937 * Reorganize and speed up MD5.
16938
16939 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
16940
16941 * VMS support.
16942
16943 *Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>*
16944
16945 * New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
16946 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
16947 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
16948
16949 *Steve Henson*
16950
16951 * Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
16952 that `SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state` be called before
16953 `SSL_{accept,connect}` may be used (`SSL_set_..._state` is omitted
16954 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
16955 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
16956
16957 *Bodo Moeller*
16958
16959 * Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
16960
16961 *Ulf Möller*
16962
16963 * Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass "egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
16964 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
16965 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline" with EGCS 1.1.2+
16966
16967 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
16968
16969 * Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
16970 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
16971
16972 *Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve*
16973
16974 * Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
16975 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
16976 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
16977 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to `s->ctx->[default_]cert`
16978 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
16979 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
16980 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
16981 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
16982 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
16983
16984 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
16985 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
16986 Changing settings for an `SSL_CTX *ctx` after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
16987 does not influence s as it used to.
16988
16989 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
16990 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
16991 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
16992 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
16993 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
16994 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
16995
16996 *Bodo Moeller*
16997
16998 * New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
16999 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
17000 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
17001 key type.
17002
17003 *Steve Henson*
17004
17005 * Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
17006 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
17007 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
17008 and 'x509').
17009
17010 *Steve Henson*
17011
17012 * Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
17013 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
17014 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
17015 extension option.
17016
17017 *Steve Henson*
17018
17019 * Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
17020 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
17021
17022 *Ben Laurie*
17023
17024 * Support Borland C++ builder.
17025
17026 *Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller*
17027
17028 * Support Mingw32.
17029
17030 *Ulf Möller*
17031
17032 * SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
17033
17034 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
17035
17036 * Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
17037
17038 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
17039
17040 * Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
17041
17042 *Ulf Möller*
17043
17044 * Update HPUX configuration.
17045
17046 *Anonymous*
17047
17048 * Add missing `sk_<type>_unshift()` function to safestack.h
17049
17050 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17051
17052 * New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
17053 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
17054 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
17055 DER-encoded.)
17056
17057 *Bodo Moeller*
17058
17059 * Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
17060 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
17061 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
17062 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
17063 now it really counts the depth.
17064
17065 *Bodo Moeller*
17066
17067 * Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
17068 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
17069 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
17070 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
17071 didn't match the private key).
17072
17073 * New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
17074 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
17075 connection using the SSL_CTX).
17076
17077 *Bodo Moeller*
17078
17079 * OAEP decoding bug fix.
17080
17081 *Ulf Möller*
17082
17083 * Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
17084 David Harris.
17085
17086 *Bodo Moeller*
17087
17088 * New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
17089 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
17090 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
17091
17092 *Bodo Moeller*
17093
17094 * New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
17095
17096 *Bodo Moeller*
17097
17098 * Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
17099 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
17100 such as /usr/local/bin.
17101
17102 *Bodo Moeller*
17103
17104 * "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
17105
17106 *Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>*
17107
17108 * New Configure option `no-<cipher>` (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
17109
17110 *Ulf Möller*
17111
17112 * Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
17113 extension adding in x509 utility.
17114
17115 *Steve Henson*
17116
17117 * Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
17118
17119 *Ulf Möller*
17120
17121 * Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
17122 prototypes.
17123
17124 *Steve Henson*
17125
17126 * New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
17127
17128 *Ulf Möller*
17129
17130 * Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
17131 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
17132 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
17133 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
17134 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
17135 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
17136 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code embedded
17137 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
17138 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
17139 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
17140
17141 *Steve Henson*
17142
17143 * Change #include filenames from `<foo.h>` to `<openssl/foo.h>`.
17144
17145 *Bodo Moeller*
17146
17147 * Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
17148 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
17149
17150 *Bodo Moeller*
17151
17152 * Fix some race conditions.
17153
17154 *Bodo Moeller*
17155
17156 * Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
17157 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
17158
17159 *Steve Henson*
17160
17161 * Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
17162
17163 *Ulf Möller*
17164
17165 * Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
17166 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
17167 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
17168
17169 *Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>*
17170
17171 * Fix lots of warnings.
17172
17173 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
17174
17175 * In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
17176 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
17177
17178 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
17179
17180 * Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
17181
17182 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
17183
17184 * Change functions to ANSI C.
17185
17186 *Ulf Möller*
17187
17188 * Fix typos in error codes.
17189
17190 *Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller*
17191
17192 * Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
17193
17194 *Ulf Möller*
17195
17196 * SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
17197
17198 *Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>*
17199
17200 * Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
17201 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
17202
17203 *Steve Henson*
17204
17205 * A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
17206 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
17207
17208 *Ben Laurie*
17209
17210 * Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
17211 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
17212
17213 *Steve Henson*
17214
17215 * Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
17216 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
17217
17218 *Steve Henson*
17219
17220 * Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
17221 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
17222
17223 *Steve Henson*
17224
17225 * Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
17226 support typesafe stack.
17227
17228 *Steve Henson*
17229
17230 * Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
17231
17232 *Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>*
17233
17234 * Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
17235 old X509V3 handling code.
17236
17237 *Steve Henson*
17238
17239 * New Configure option "rsaref".
17240
17241 *Ulf Möller*
17242
17243 * Don't auto-generate pem.h.
17244
17245 *Bodo Moeller*
17246
17247 * Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
17248
17249 *Ben Laurie*
17250
17251 * Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
17252
17253 *Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson*
17254
17255 * Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
17256 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
17257 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
17258 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
17259 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
17260
17261 *Ben Laurie*
17262
17263 * Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>` facility which revokes a certificate
17264 specified in `<certfile>` by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
17265 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
17266 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
17267
17268 *Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall*
17269
17270 * Fix `openssl crl -noout -text` combination where `-noout` killed the
17271 `-text` option at all and this way the `-noout -text` combination was
17272 inconsistent in `openssl crl` with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa`.
17273
17274 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17275
17276 * Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
17277 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
17278 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
17279
17280 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17281
17282 * Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test `openssl <cipher>` for
17283 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
17284 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
17285 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
17286 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
17287 `openssl list-cipher-commands` is used.
17288
17289 *Bodo Moeller*
17290
17291 * Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
17292 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
17293
17294 *Bodo Moeller*
17295
17296 * New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
17297 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
17298
17299 *Ulf Möller*
17300
17301 * Tweaks to Configure
17302
17303 *Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>*
17304
17305 * Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
17306 yet...
17307
17308 *Steve Henson*
17309
17310 * New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
17311
17312 *Ulf Möller*
17313
17314 * New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
17315 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
17316
17317 *Ulf Möller*
17318
17319 * Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
17320 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
17321 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
17322
17323 *Bodo Moeller*
17324
17325 * New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
17326
17327 *Bodo Moeller*
17328
17329 * Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
17330 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
17331
17332 *Steve Henson*
17333
17334 * More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
17335 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
17336 to library startup routines.
17337
17338 *Steve Henson*
17339
17340 * Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
17341 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
17342 codes along the way.
17343
17344 *Steve Henson*
17345
17346 * PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
17347 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
17348 objects to objects.h
17349
17350 *Steve Henson*
17351
17352 * Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
17353 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
17354
17355 *Steve Henson*
17356
17357 * Add LinuxPPC support.
17358
17359 *Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>*
17360
17361 * Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
17362 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
17363
17364 *Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie*
17365
17366 * Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
17367 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
17368
17369 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>*
17370
17371 * Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
17372 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
17373
17374 *Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>*
17375
17376 ### Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
17377
17378 * Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
17379 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
17380
17381 *Ben Laurie*
17382
17383 * Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
17384 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
17385 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
17386 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
17387
17388 *Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)*
17389
17390 * Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
17391 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
17392 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
17393 document.
17394
17395 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>*
17396
17397 * Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
17398 Malloc, Free.
17399
17400 *Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve*
17401
17402 * Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
17403
17404 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>*
17405
17406 * Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
17407 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
17408 if someone would make that last step automatic.
17409
17410 *Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>*
17411
17412 * ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
17413
17414 *Ben Laurie*
17415
17416 * Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
17417 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
17418 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
17419 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
17420
17421 *Steve Henson*
17422
17423 * Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
17424 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
17425 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
17426
17427 *Steve Henson*
17428
17429 * Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
17430 /path/to/bin/perl` in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin`,
17431 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5` (which is
17432 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
17433 installed as `perl`).
17434
17435 *Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>*
17436
17437 * Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
17438
17439 *Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>*
17440
17441 * Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
17442 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
17443 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
17444 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
17445 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
17446
17447 *Steve Henson*
17448
17449 * DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
17450
17451 *Ben Laurie*
17452
17453 * Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
17454 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
17455 is horrible: I feel ill....
17456
17457 *Steve Henson*
17458
17459 * Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
17460 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
17461 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
17462 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
17463
17464 *Steve Henson*
17465
17466 * Make `openssl version` output lines consistent.
17467
17468 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17469
17470 * Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
17471 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
17472 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
17473
17474 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17475
17476 * Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
17477 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
17478 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
17479 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
17480 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
17481 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
17482 openssl_bio.xs.
17483
17484 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17485
17486 * Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
17487
17488 *Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie*
17489
17490 * Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
17491
17492 *John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>*
17493
17494 * Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
17495
17496 *Ben Laurie*
17497
17498 * Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
17499 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
17500 in CRLs.
17501
17502 *Steve Henson*
17503
17504 * Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
17505 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
17506 Configure script every time: One now can use
17507 `perl Configure <id>:<details>`,
17508 i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
17509 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
17510 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key `<id>` with value
17511 `<details>` and `perl Configure <id>` is called. So, when you want to
17512 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
17513 assembler stuff you can use `perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"`
17514 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
17515
17516 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17517
17518 * Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
17519
17520 *Ben Laurie*
17521
17522 * Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
17523 on the `perl Configure ...` command line. This way one can compile
17524 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
17525 for linking it into DSOs.
17526
17527 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17528
17529 * Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
17530 Fixed.
17531
17532 *Ben Laurie*
17533
17534 * Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
17535 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
17536 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
17537 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
17538 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
17539
17540 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17541
17542 * General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...`
17543 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm` by `rm`.
17544 Additionally cleaned up the `make links` target: Remove unnecessary
17545 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
17546 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
17547 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
17548
17549 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17550
17551 * Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
17552 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
17553 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
17554 encryption.
17555
17556 *Ben Laurie*
17557
17558 * Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
17559 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
17560 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
17561 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
17562
17563 *Steve Henson*
17564
17565 * Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
17566 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
17567 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
17568 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
17569 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
17570 field as blank.
17571
17572 *Steve Henson*
17573
17574 * Added the new 'Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
17575 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
17576 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
17577 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
17578
17579 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17580
17581 * Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
17582 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
17583
17584 *Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>*
17585
17586 * Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
17587
17588 *Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>*
17589
17590 * Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
17591 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
17592 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
17593 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
17594 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
17595
17596 *Steve Henson*
17597
17598 * Add new certificate file to stack functions,
17599 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
17600 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
17601 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
17602 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
17603 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
17604 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
17605
17606 *Ben Laurie*
17607
17608 * Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
17609 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
17610 See <http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html>, and run doxygen with
17611 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
17612
17613 *Ben Laurie*
17614
17615 * Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
17616
17617 *Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual*
17618
17619 * Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
17620 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
17621
17622 *Steve Henson*
17623
17624 * Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
17625 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
17626 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
17627 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
17628 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
17629 (e.g. s_server).
17630 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
17631 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
17632 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
17633 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
17634 no way to reconfigure them.
17635 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
17636 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
17637 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
17638 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
17639 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
17640
17641 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17642
17643 * Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
17644 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
17645 recognized by the users.
17646
17647 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17648
17649 * Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
17650 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
17651 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
17652 already masked variable.
17653
17654 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
17655
17656 * Fix `port` variable from `int` to `unsigned int` in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
17657
17658 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
17659
17660 * Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
17661 from `int` to `unsigned int` because it is a length and initialized by
17662 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *`.
17663
17664 *Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>*
17665
17666 * Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
17667 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
17668
17669 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17670
17671 * Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus`' functional also for DSA certificates
17672 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
17673 -noout -modulus` as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
17674 -modulus`. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
17675 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
17676 `openssl dsa -modulus` in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
17677 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
17678 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
17679 now, too.
17680
17681 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17682
17683 * Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
17684 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
17685
17686 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
17687
17688 * Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
17689 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
17690 config file.
17691
17692 *Steve Henson*
17693
17694 * Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
17695
17696 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie*
17697
17698 * Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
17699 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
17700 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
17701 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
17702
17703 *Ben Laurie*
17704
17705 * Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
17706
17707 *Steve Henson*
17708
17709 * Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
17710
17711 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>*
17712
17713 * Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
17714
17715 *Ben Laurie*
17716
17717 * Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
17718 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
17719
17720 *Steve Henson*
17721
17722 * Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
17723 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
17724
17725 *Steve Henson*
17726
17727 * Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
17728 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
17729 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
17730 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
17731 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
17732 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
17733 *Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
17734 Ben Laurie*
17735
17736 * Updates to the new SSL compression code
17737
17738 *Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)*
17739
17740 * Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
17741 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
17742 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
17743 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
17744
17745 *Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)*
17746
17747 * Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
17748 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
17749 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
17750
17751 *Steve Henson*
17752
17753 * Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
17754 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
17755 an example.
17756
17757 *Steve Henson*
17758
17759 * Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
17760 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
17761
17762 *Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>*
17763
17764 * Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
17765 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
17766 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
17767 build instructions.
17768
17769 *Steve Henson*
17770
17771 * Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
17772 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
17773 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
17774 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
17775
17776 *Steve Henson*
17777
17778 * Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
17779 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
17780 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
17781 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
17782
17783 *Ben Laurie*
17784
17785 * Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
17786 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
17787 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
17788 so it wasn't spotted.
17789
17790 *Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>*
17791
17792 * Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
17793 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
17794 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
17795 vectors if you have them.
17796
17797 *Ben Laurie*
17798
17799 * Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
17800 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
17801
17802 *Ben Laurie*
17803
17804 * Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
17805 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
17806 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
17807 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
17808 If you do a:
17809 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
17810 it will update them.
17811
17812 *Steve Henson*
17813
17814 * Overhauled the Perl interface:
17815 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
17816 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
17817 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
17818 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
17819 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
17820 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
17821
17822 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17823
17824 * First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
17825 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
17826 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
17827 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
17828 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
17829 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
17830 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
17831 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
17832 the crypto/md/ stuff).
17833
17834 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
17835
17836 * More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
17837 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
17838 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
17839 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
17840 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
17841
17842 *Steve Henson*
17843
17844 * Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
17845 INTEGER code.
17846
17847 *Steve Henson*
17848
17849 * Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
17850
17851 *Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)*
17852
17853 * Make sure `make rehash` target really finds the `openssl` program.
17854
17855 *Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>*
17856
17857 * Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
17858 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
17859
17860 *Ben Laurie*
17861
17862 * Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
17863
17864 *Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>*
17865
17866 * Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm` -> `no-asm`
17867
17868 *Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>*
17869
17870 * New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
17871
17872 *Steve Henson*
17873
17874 * Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
17875 few typos.
17876
17877 *Steve Henson*
17878
17879 * Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
17880 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
17881 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
17882
17883 *Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)*
17884
17885 * Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
17886
17887 *Steve Henson*
17888
17889 * Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
17890
17891 *Steve Henson*
17892
17893 * Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
17894
17895 *Steve Henson*
17896
17897 * Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
17898 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
17899
17900 *Steve Henson*
17901
17902 * More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
17903 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
17904 CA extensions.
17905
17906 *Steve Henson*
17907
17908 * Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
17909 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
17910
17911 *Steve Henson*
17912
17913 * Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
17914 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
17915 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
17916
17917 *Steve Henson*
17918
17919 * Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
17920 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
17921 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
17922 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
17923 properly to be processed.
17924
17925 *Steve Henson*
17926
17927 * Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
17928 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
17929 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
17930
17931 *Ben Laurie*
17932
17933 * Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
17934
17935 *Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>*
17936
17937 * Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
17938 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
17939 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
17940 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
17941 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
17942 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
17943 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
17944 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
17945 or delete all the .err files.
17946
17947 *Steve Henson*
17948
17949 * CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
17950 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
17951 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
17952 to regenerate it if needed.
17953 *Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
17954 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>*
17955
17956 * File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
17957
17958 *Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>*
17959
17960 * Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
17961 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
17962 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
17963 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
17964 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
17965
17966 *Steve Henson*
17967
17968 * Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
17969
17970 *Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>*
17971
17972 * Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
17973
17974 *Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>*
17975
17976 * Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
17977 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
17978 error, but didn't set one).
17979
17980 *Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>*
17981
17982 * Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
17983
17984 *Ben Laurie*
17985
17986 * Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
17987 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
17988
17989 *Steve Henson*
17990
17991 * Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
17992
17993 *Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>*
17994
17995 * The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
17996 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
17997 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
17998 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
17999 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
18000 OID is not part of the table.
18001
18002 *Steve Henson*
18003
18004 * Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
18005 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
18006
18007 *Ben Laurie*
18008
18009 * Sort openssl functions by name.
18010
18011 *Ben Laurie*
18012
18013 * Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
18014 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
18015 was "1234").
18016
18017 *Steve Henson*
18018
18019 * Make *all* `*_free` functions accept a NULL pointer.
18020
18021 *Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>*
18022
18023 * If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
18024 NULL pointers.
18025
18026 *Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>*
18027
18028 * s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
18029
18030 *Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>*
18031
18032 * Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
18033
18034 *Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>*
18035
18036 * Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
18037
18038 *Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>*
18039
18040 * Add prototype for temp key callback functions
18041 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
18042
18043 *Ben Laurie*
18044
18045 * Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
18046 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
18047
18048 *Steve Henson*
18049
18050 * X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
18051
18052 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
18053
18054 * rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
18055
18056 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
18057
18058 * BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
18059
18060 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
18061
18062 * BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
18063
18064 *Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>*
18065
18066 * Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
18067 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
18068 unused in the certificate verification process.
18069
18070 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18071
18072 * Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
18073 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
18074
18075 *Steve Henson*
18076
18077 * Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
18078 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
18079
18080 *Steve Henson and Ben Laurie*
18081
18082 * First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay` program is now named
18083 `openssl` and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>`
18084 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
18085 line interface `openssl <command>`, similar to `cvs <command>`.
18086
18087 *Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie*
18088
18089 * ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
18090 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
18091
18092 *Steve Henson*
18093
18094 * Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
18095
18096 *Steve Henson*
18097
18098 * Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
18099
18100 *Paul Sutton*
18101
18102 * Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
18103 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
18104
18105 * Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
18106
18107 *Ben Laurie*
18108
18109 * Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
18110
18111 *Ben Laurie*
18112
18113 * Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
18114
18115 *Ben Laurie*
18116
18117 * Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
18118 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
18119 other error libraries.
18120
18121 *Steve Henson*
18122
18123 * Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
18124
18125 *Steve Henson*
18126
18127 * Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
18128 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
18129 be read in.
18130
18131 *Steve Henson*
18132
18133 * Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
18134 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
18135 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
18136 the new set of documentation files.
18137
18138 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18139
18140 * SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
18141 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
18142 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
18143 number of arguments.
18144
18145 *Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>*
18146
18147 * Fix test data to work with the above.
18148
18149 *Ben Laurie*
18150
18151 * Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
18152 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
18153
18154 *Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>*
18155
18156 * Autodetect FreeBSD3.
18157
18158 *Ben Laurie*
18159
18160 * Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
18161 nextstep
18162 ncr-scde
18163 unixware-2.0
18164 unixware-2.0-pentium
18165 sco5-cc.
18166
18167 *Ben Laurie*
18168
18169 * Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
18170 before they are needed.
18171
18172 *Ben Laurie*
18173
18174 * Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
18175
18176 *Ben Laurie*
18177

18186
18187 *Paul Sutton*
18188
18189 * Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
18190 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
18191
18192 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18193
18194 * Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
18195 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
18196
18197 *Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall*
18198
18199 * Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links`
18200 when "ssleay" is still not found.
18201
18202 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18203
18204 * Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
18205

18207
18208 * Updated the README file.
18209
18210 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18211
18212 * Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
18213 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
18214
18215 *Ralf S. Engelschall*
18216
