10 See the individual manual pages for details.
11
12 =head1 DESCRIPTION
13
14 This guide details the changes required to migrate to new versions of OpenSSL.
15 Currently this covers OpenSSL 3.0 & 3.1. For earlier versions refer to
16 L<https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/CHANGES.md>.
17 For an overview of some of the key concepts introduced in OpenSSL 3.0 see
18 L<crypto(7)>.
19
20 =head1 OPENSSL 3.1
21
22 =head2 Main Changes from OpenSSL 3.0
23
24 The FIPS provider in OpenSSL 3.1 includes some non-FIPS validated algorithms,
25 consequently the property query C<fips=yes> is mandatory for applications that
26 want to operate in a FIPS approved manner. The algorithms are:
27
28 =over 4
29
30 =item Triple DES ECB
31
32 =item Triple DES CBC
33
34 =item EdDSA
35
36 =back
37
38 There are no other changes requiring additional migration measures since OpenSSL 3.0.
39
40 =head1 OPENSSL 3.0
41
42 =head2 Main Changes from OpenSSL 1.1.1
43
44 =head3 Major Release
45
46 OpenSSL 3.0 is a major release and consequently any application that currently
47 uses an older version of OpenSSL will at the very least need to be recompiled in
48 order to work with the new version. It is the intention that the large majority
49 of applications will work unchanged with OpenSSL 3.0 if those applications
50 previously worked with OpenSSL 1.1.1. However this is not guaranteed and some
51 changes may be required in some cases. Changes may also be required if
52 applications need to take advantage of some of the new features available in
53 OpenSSL 3.0 such as the availability of the FIPS module.
54
55 =head3 License Change
56
57 In previous versions, OpenSSL was licensed under the L<dual OpenSSL and SSLeay
58 licenses|https://www.openssl.org/source/license-openssl-ssleay.txt>
59 (both licenses apply). From OpenSSL 3.0 this is replaced by the
60 L<Apache License v2|https://www.openssl.org/source/apache-license-2.0.txt>.
61
62 =head3 Providers and FIPS support
63
64 One of the key changes from OpenSSL 1.1.1 is the introduction of the Provider
65 concept. Providers collect together and make available algorithm implementations.
66 With OpenSSL 3.0 it is possible to specify, either programmatically or via a
67 config file, which providers you want to use for any given application.
68 OpenSSL 3.0 comes with 5 different providers as standard. Over time third
69 parties may distribute additional providers that can be plugged into OpenSSL.
70 All algorithm implementations available via providers are accessed through the
71 "high level" APIs (for example those functions prefixed with C<EVP>). They cannot
72 be accessed using the L</Low Level APIs>.
73
74 One of the standard providers available is the FIPS provider. This makes
75 available FIPS validated cryptographic algorithms.
76 The FIPS provider is disabled by default and needs to be enabled explicitly
77 at configuration time using the C<enable-fips> option. If it is enabled,
78 the FIPS provider gets built and installed in addition to the other standard
79 providers. No separate installation procedure is necessary.
80 There is however a dedicated C<install_fips> make target, which serves the
81 special purpose of installing only the FIPS provider into an existing
82 OpenSSL installation.
83
84 Not all algorithms may be available for the application at a particular moment.
85 If the application code uses any digest or cipher algorithm via the EVP interface,
86 the application should verify the result of the L<EVP_EncryptInit(3)>,
87 L<EVP_EncryptInit_ex(3)>, and L<EVP_DigestInit(3)> functions. In case when
88 the requested algorithm is not available, these functions will fail.
89
90 See also L</Legacy Algorithms> for information on the legacy provider.
91
92 See also L</Completing the installation of the FIPS Module> and
93 L</Using the FIPS Module in applications>.
94
95 =head3 Low Level APIs
96
97 OpenSSL has historically provided two sets of APIs for invoking cryptographic
98 algorithms: the "high level" APIs (such as the C<EVP> APIs) and the "low level"
99 APIs. The high level APIs are typically designed to work across all algorithm
100 types. The "low level" APIs are targeted at a specific algorithm implementation.
101 For example, the EVP APIs provide the functions L<EVP_EncryptInit_ex(3)>,
102 L<EVP_EncryptUpdate(3)> and L<EVP_EncryptFinal(3)> to perform symmetric
103 encryption. Those functions can be used with the algorithms AES, CHACHA, 3DES etc.
104 On the other hand, to do AES encryption using the low level APIs you would have
105 to call AES specific functions such as L<AES_set_encrypt_key(3)>,
106 L<AES_encrypt(3)>, and so on. The functions for 3DES are different.
107 Use of the low level APIs has been informally discouraged by the OpenSSL
108 development team for a long time. However in OpenSSL 3.0 this is made more
109 formal. All such low level APIs have been deprecated. You may still use them in
110 your applications, but you may start to see deprecation warnings during
111 compilation (dependent on compiler support for this). Deprecated APIs may be
112 removed from future versions of OpenSSL so you are strongly encouraged to update
113 your code to use the high level APIs instead.
114
115 This is described in more detail in L</Deprecation of Low Level Functions>
116
117 =head3 Legacy Algorithms
118
119 Some cryptographic algorithms such as B<MD2> and B<DES> that were available via
120 the EVP APIs are now considered legacy and their use is strongly discouraged.
121 These legacy EVP algorithms are still available in OpenSSL 3.0 but not by
122 default. If you want to use them then you must load the legacy provider.
123 This can be as simple as a config file change, or can be done programmatically.
124 See L<OSSL_PROVIDER-legacy(7)> for a complete list of algorithms.
125 Applications using the EVP APIs to access these algorithms should instead use
126 more modern algorithms. If that is not possible then these applications
127 should ensure that the legacy provider has been loaded. This can be achieved
128 either programmatically or via configuration. See L<crypto(7)> man page for
129 more information about providers.
130
131 =head3 Engines and "METHOD" APIs
132
133 The refactoring to support Providers conflicts internally with the APIs used to
134 support engines, including the ENGINE API and any function that creates or
135 modifies custom "METHODS" (for example L<EVP_MD_meth_new(3)>,
136 L<EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_meth_new(3)>, L<RSA_meth_new(3)>,
137 L<EC_KEY_METHOD_new(3)>, etc.). These functions are being deprecated in
138 OpenSSL 3.0, and users of these APIs should know that their use can likely
139 bypass provider selection and configuration, with unintended consequences.
140 This is particularly relevant for applications written to use the OpenSSL 3.0
141 FIPS module, as detailed below. Authors and maintainers of external engines are
142 strongly encouraged to refactor their code transforming engines into providers
143 using the new Provider API and avoiding deprecated methods.
144
145 =head3 Support of legacy engines
146
147 If openssl is not built without engine support or deprecated API support, engines
148 will still work. However, their applicability will be limited.
149
150 New algorithms provided via engines will still work.
151
152 Engine-backed keys can be loaded via custom B<OSSL_STORE> implementation.
153 In this case the B<EVP_PKEY> objects created via L<ENGINE_load_private_key(3)>
154 will be considered legacy and will continue to work.
155
156 To ensure the future compatibility, the engines should be turned to providers.
157 To prefer the provider-based hardware offload, you can specify the default
158 properties to prefer your provider.
159
160 =head3 Versioning Scheme
161
162 The OpenSSL versioning scheme has changed with the OpenSSL 3.0 release. The new
163 versioning scheme has this format:
164
165 MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
166
167 For OpenSSL 1.1.1 and below, different patch levels were indicated by a letter
168 at the end of the release version number. This will no longer be used and
169 instead the patch level is indicated by the final number in the version. A
170 change in the second (MINOR) number indicates that new features may have been
171 added. OpenSSL versions with the same major number are API and ABI compatible.
172 If the major number changes then API and ABI compatibility is not guaranteed.
173
174 For more information, see L<OpenSSL_version(3)>.
175
176 =head3 Other major new features
177
178 =head4 Certificate Management Protocol (CMP, RFC 4210)
179
180 This also covers CRMF (RFC 4211) and HTTP transfer (RFC 6712)
181 See L<openssl-cmp(1)> and L<OSSL_CMP_exec_certreq(3)> as starting points.
182
183 =head4 HTTP(S) client
184
185 A proper HTTP(S) client that supports GET and POST, redirection, plain and
186 ASN.1-encoded contents, proxies, and timeouts.
187
188 =head4 Key Derivation Function API (EVP_KDF)
189
190 This simplifies the process of adding new KDF and PRF implementations.
191
192 Previously KDF algorithms had been shoe-horned into using the EVP_PKEY object
193 which was not a logical mapping.
194 Existing applications that use KDF algorithms using EVP_PKEY
195 (scrypt, TLS1 PRF and HKDF) may be slower as they use an EVP_KDF bridge
196 internally.
197 All new applications should use the new L<EVP_KDF(3)> interface.
198 See also L<OSSL_PROVIDER-default(7)/Key Derivation Function (KDF)> and
199 L<OSSL_PROVIDER-FIPS(7)/Key Derivation Function (KDF)>.
200
201 =head4 Message Authentication Code API (EVP_MAC)
202
203 This simplifies the process of adding MAC implementations.
204
205 This includes a generic EVP_PKEY to EVP_MAC bridge, to facilitate the continued
206 use of MACs through raw private keys in functionality such as
207 L<EVP_DigestSign(3)> and L<EVP_DigestVerify(3)>.
208
209 All new applications should use the new L<EVP_MAC(3)> interface.
210 See also L<OSSL_PROVIDER-default(7)/Message Authentication Code (MAC)>
211 and L<OSSL_PROVIDER-FIPS(7)/Message Authentication Code (MAC)>.
212
213 =head4 Algorithm Fetching
214
215 Using calls to convenience functions such as EVP_sha256() and EVP_aes_256_gcm() may
216 incur a performance penalty when using providers.
217 Retrieving algorithms from providers involves searching for an algorithm by name.
218 This is much slower than directly accessing a method table.
219 It is recommended to prefetch algorithms if an algorithm is used many times.
220 See L<crypto(7)/Performance>, L<crypto(7)/Explicit fetching> and L<crypto(7)/Implicit fetching>.
221
222 =head4 Support for Linux Kernel TLS
223
224 In order to use KTLS, support for it must be compiled in using the
225 C<enable-ktls> configuration option. It must also be enabled at run time using
226 the B<SSL_OP_ENABLE_KTLS> option.

293 is both authenticated and encrypted using AES GCM mode.

296
297 L<PKCS7_get_octet_string(3)> and L<PKCS7_type_is_other(3)> were made public.

300
301 =head4 PKCS#12 API updates
302
303 The default algorithms for pkcs12 creation with the PKCS12_create() function
304 were changed to more modern PBKDF2 and AES based algorithms. The default
305 MAC iteration count was changed to PKCS12_DEFAULT_ITER to make it equal
306 with the password-based encryption iteration count. The default digest
307 algorithm for the MAC computation was changed to SHA-256. The pkcs12
308 application now supports -legacy option that restores the previous
309 default algorithms to support interoperability with legacy systems.
310
311 Added enhanced PKCS#12 APIs which accept a library context B<OSSL_LIB_CTX>
312 and (where relevant) a property query. Other APIs which handle PKCS#7 and
313 PKCS#8 objects have also been enhanced where required. This includes:
314
315 L<PKCS12_add_key_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_add_safe_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_add_safes_ex(3)>,
316 L<PKCS12_create_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_decrypt_skey_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_init_ex(3)>,
317 L<PKCS12_item_decrypt_d2i_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_item_i2d_encrypt_ex(3)>,
318 L<PKCS12_key_gen_asc_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_key_gen_uni_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_key_gen_utf8_ex(3)>,
319 L<PKCS12_pack_p7encdata_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_pbe_crypt_ex(3)>, L<PKCS12_PBE_keyivgen_ex(3)>,
320 L<PKCS12_SAFEBAG_create_pkcs8_encrypt_ex(3)>, L<PKCS5_pbe2_set_iv_ex(3)>,
321 L<PKCS5_pbe_set0_algor_ex(3)>, L<PKCS5_pbe_set_ex(3)>, L<PKCS5_pbkdf2_set_ex(3)>,
322 L<PKCS5_v2_PBE_keyivgen_ex(3)>, L<PKCS5_v2_scrypt_keyivgen_ex(3)>,
323 L<PKCS8_decrypt_ex(3)>, L<PKCS8_encrypt_ex(3)>, L<PKCS8_set0_pbe_ex(3)>.
324
325 As part of this change the EVP_PBE_xxx APIs can also accept a library
326 context and property query and will call an extended version of the key/IV
327 derivation function which supports these parameters. This includes
328 L<EVP_PBE_CipherInit_ex(3)>, L<EVP_PBE_find_ex(3)> and L<EVP_PBE_scrypt_ex(3)>.
329
330 =head4 Windows thread synchronization changes
331
332 Windows thread synchronization uses read/write primitives (SRWLock) when
333 supported by the OS, otherwise CriticalSection continues to be used.
334
335 =head4 Trace API
336
337 A new generic trace API has been added which provides support for enabling
338 instrumentation through trace output. This feature is mainly intended as an aid
339 for developers and is disabled by default. To utilize it, OpenSSL needs to be
340 configured with the C<enable-trace> option.
341
342 If the tracing API is enabled, the application can activate trace output by
343 registering BIOs as trace channels for a number of tracing and debugging
344 categories. See L<OSSL_trace_enabled(3)>.
345
346 =head4 Key validation updates
347
348 L<EVP_PKEY_public_check(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_param_check(3)> now work for
349 more key types. This includes RSA, DSA, ED25519, X25519, ED448 and X448.
350 Previously (in 1.1.1) they would return -2. For key types that do not have
351 parameters then L<EVP_PKEY_param_check(3)> will always return 1.
352
353 =head3 Other notable deprecations and changes
354
355 =head4 The function code part of an OpenSSL error code is no longer relevant
356
357 This code is now always set to zero. Related functions are deprecated.
358
359 =head4 STACK and HASH macros have been cleaned up
360
361 The type-safe wrappers are declared everywhere and implemented once.
362 See L<DEFINE_STACK_OF(3)> and L<DEFINE_LHASH_OF_EX(3)>.
363
364 =head4 The RAND_DRBG subsystem has been removed
365
366 The new L<EVP_RAND(3)> is a partial replacement: the DRBG callback framework is
367 absent. The RAND_DRBG API did not fit well into the new provider concept as
368 implemented by EVP_RAND and EVP_RAND_CTX.
369
370 =head4 Removed FIPS_mode() and FIPS_mode_set()
371
372 These functions are legacy APIs that are not applicable to the new provider
373 model. Applications should instead use
374 L<EVP_default_properties_is_fips_enabled(3)> and
375 L<EVP_default_properties_enable_fips(3)>.
376
377 =head4 Key generation is slower
378
379 The Miller-Rabin test now uses 64 rounds, which is used for all prime generation,
380 including RSA key generation. This affects the time for larger keys sizes.
381
382 The default key generation method for the regular 2-prime RSA keys was changed
383 to the FIPS186-4 B.3.6 method (Generation of Probable Primes with Conditions
384 Based on Auxiliary Probable Primes). This method is slower than the original
385 method.
386
387 =head4 Change PBKDF2 to conform to SP800-132 instead of the older PKCS5 RFC2898
388
389 This checks that the salt length is at least 128 bits, the derived key length is
390 at least 112 bits, and that the iteration count is at least 1000.
391 For backwards compatibility these checks are disabled by default in the
392 default provider, but are enabled by default in the FIPS provider.
393
394 To enable or disable the checks see B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PKCS5> in
395 L<EVP_KDF-PBKDF2(7)>. The parameter can be set using L<EVP_KDF_derive(3)>.
396
397 =head4 Enforce a minimum DH modulus size of 512 bits
398
399 Smaller sizes now result in an error.
400
401 =head4 SM2 key changes
402
403 EC EVP_PKEYs with the SM2 curve have been reworked to automatically become
404 EVP_PKEY_SM2 rather than EVP_PKEY_EC.
405
406 Unlike in previous OpenSSL versions, this means that applications cannot
407 call C<EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type(pkey, EVP_PKEY_SM2)> to get SM2 computations.
408
409 Parameter and key generation is also reworked to make it possible
410 to generate EVP_PKEY_SM2 parameters and keys. Applications must now generate
411 SM2 keys directly and must not create an EVP_PKEY_EC key first. It is no longer
412 possible to import an SM2 key with domain parameters other than the SM2 elliptic
413 curve ones.
414
415 Validation of SM2 keys has been separated from the validation of regular EC
416 keys, allowing to improve the SM2 validation process to reject loaded private
417 keys that are not conforming to the SM2 ISO standard.
418 In particular, a private scalar I<k> outside the range I<< 1 <= k < n-1 >> is
419 now correctly rejected.
420
421 =head4 EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type() method has been removed
422
423 This function made a B<EVP_PKEY> object mutable after it had been set up. In
424 OpenSSL 3.0 it was decided that a provided key should not be able to change its
425 type, so this function has been removed.
426
427 =head4 Functions that return an internal key should be treated as read only
428
429 Functions such as L<EVP_PKEY_get0_RSA(3)> behave slightly differently in
430 OpenSSL 3.0. Previously they returned a pointer to the low-level key used
431 internally by libcrypto. From OpenSSL 3.0 this key may now be held in a
432 provider. Calling these functions will only return a handle on the internal key
433 where the EVP_PKEY was constructed using this key in the first place, for
434 example using a function or macro such as L<EVP_PKEY_assign_RSA(3)>,
435 L<EVP_PKEY_set1_RSA(3)>, etc.
436 Where the EVP_PKEY holds a provider managed key, then these functions now return
437 a cached copy of the key. Changes to the internal provider key that take place
438 after the first time the cached key is accessed will not be reflected back in
439 the cached copy. Similarly any changes made to the cached copy by application
440 code will not be reflected back in the internal provider key.
441
442 For the above reasons the keys returned from these functions should typically be
443 treated as read-only. To emphasise this the value returned from
444 L<EVP_PKEY_get0_RSA(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_get0_DSA(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_get0_EC_KEY(3)> and
445 L<EVP_PKEY_get0_DH(3)> have been made const. This may break some existing code.
446 Applications broken by this change should be modified. The preferred solution is
447 to refactor the code to avoid the use of these deprecated functions. Failing
448 this the code should be modified to use a const pointer instead.
449 The L<EVP_PKEY_get1_RSA(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_get1_DSA(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_get1_EC_KEY(3)>
450 and L<EVP_PKEY_get1_DH(3)> functions continue to return a non-const pointer to
451 enable them to be "freed". However they should also be treated as read-only.
452
453 =head4 The public key check has moved from EVP_PKEY_derive() to EVP_PKEY_derive_set_peer()
454
455 This may mean result in an error in L<EVP_PKEY_derive_set_peer(3)> rather than
456 during L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)>.
457 To disable this check use EVP_PKEY_derive_set_peer_ex(dh, peer, 0).
458
459 =head4 The print format has cosmetic changes for some functions
460
461 The output from numerous "printing" functions such as L<X509_signature_print(3)>,
462 L<X509_print_ex(3)>, L<X509_CRL_print_ex(3)>, and other similar functions has been
463 amended such that there may be cosmetic differences between the output
464 observed in 1.1.1 and 3.0. This also applies to the B<-text> output from the
465 B<openssl x509> and B<openssl crl> applications.
466
467 =head4 Interactive mode from the B<openssl> program has been removed
468
469 From now on, running it without arguments is equivalent to B<openssl help>.
470
471 =head4 The error return values from some control calls (ctrl) have changed
472
473 One significant change is that controls which used to return -2 for
474 invalid inputs, now return -1 indicating a generic error condition instead.
475
476 =head4 DH and DHX key types have different settable parameters
477
478 Previously (in 1.1.1) these conflicting parameters were allowed, but will now
479 result in errors. See L<EVP_PKEY-DH(7)> for further details. This affects the
480 behaviour of L<openssl-genpkey(1)> for DH parameter generation.
481
482 =head4 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_flags() ordering change
483
484 If using a cipher from a provider the B<EVP_CIPH_FLAG_LENGTH_BITS> flag can only
485 be set B<after> the cipher has been assigned to the cipher context.
486 See L<EVP_EncryptInit(3)/FLAGS> for more information.
487
488 =head4 Validation of operation context parameters
489
490 Due to move of the implementation of cryptographic operations to the
491 providers, validation of various operation parameters can be postponed until
492 the actual operation is executed where previously it happened immediately
493 when an operation parameter was set.
494
495 For example when setting an unsupported curve with
496 EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ec_paramgen_curve_nid() this function call will not fail
497 but later keygen operations with the EVP_PKEY_CTX will fail.
498
499 =head4 Removal of function code from the error codes
500
501 The function code part of the error code is now always set to 0. For that
502 reason the ERR_GET_FUNC() macro was removed. Applications must resolve
503 the error codes only using the library number and the reason code.
504
505 =head4 ChaCha20-Poly1305 cipher does not allow a truncated IV length to be used
506
507 In OpenSSL 3.0 setting the IV length to any value other than 12 will result in an
508 error.
509 Prior to OpenSSL 3.0 the ivlen could be smaller that the required 12 byte length,
510 using EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(ctx, EVP_CRTL_AEAD_SET_IVLEN, ivlen, NULL). This resulted
511 in an IV that had leading zero padding.
512
513 =head2 Installation and Compilation
514
515 Please refer to the INSTALL.md file in the top of the distribution for
516 instructions on how to build and install OpenSSL 3.0. Please also refer to the
517 various platform specific NOTES files for your specific platform.
518
519 =head2 Upgrading from OpenSSL 1.1.1
520
521 Upgrading to OpenSSL 3.0 from OpenSSL 1.1.1 should be relatively straight
522 forward in most cases. The most likely area where you will encounter problems
523 is if you have used low level APIs in your code (as discussed above). In that
524 case you are likely to start seeing deprecation warnings when compiling your
525 application. If this happens you have 3 options:
526
527 =over 4
528
529 =item 1.
530
531 Ignore the warnings. They are just warnings. The deprecated functions are still present and you may still use them. However be aware that they may be removed from a future version of OpenSSL.
532
533 =item 2.
534
535 Suppress the warnings. Refer to your compiler documentation on how to do this.
536
537 =item 3.
538
539 Remove your usage of the low level APIs. In this case you will need to rewrite your code to use the high level APIs instead
540
541 =back
542
543 =head3 Error code changes
544
545 As OpenSSL 3.0 provides a brand new Encoder/Decoder mechanism for working with
546 widely used file formats, application code that checks for particular error
547 reason codes on key loading failures might need an update.
548
549 Password-protected keys may deserve special attention. If only some errors
550 are treated as an indicator that the user should be asked about the password again,
551 it's worth testing these scenarios and processing the newly relevant codes.
552
553 There may be more cases to treat specially, depending on the calling application code.
554
555 =head2 Upgrading from OpenSSL 1.0.2
556
557 Upgrading to OpenSSL 3.0 from OpenSSL 1.0.2 is likely to be significantly more
558 difficult. In addition to the issues discussed above in the section about
559 L</Upgrading from OpenSSL 1.1.1>, the main things to be aware of are:
560
561 =over 4
562
563 =item 1.
564
565 The build and installation procedure has changed significantly.
566
567 Check the file INSTALL.md in the top of the installation for instructions on how
568 to build and install OpenSSL for your platform. Also read the various NOTES
569 files in the same directory, as applicable for your platform.
570
571 =item 2.
572
573 Many structures have been made opaque in OpenSSL 3.0.
574
575 The structure definitions have been removed from the public header files and
576 moved to internal header files. In practice this means that you can no longer
577 stack allocate some structures. Instead they must be heap allocated through some
578 function call (typically those function names have a C<_new> suffix to them).
579 Additionally you must use "setter" or "getter" functions to access the fields
580 within those structures.
581
582 For example code that previously looked like this:
583
584 EVP_MD_CTX md_ctx;
585
586 /* This line will now generate compiler errors */
587 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md_ctx);
588
589 The code needs to be amended to look like this:
590
591 EVP_MD_CTX *md_ctx;
592
593 md_ctx = EVP_MD_CTX_new();
594 ...
595 ...
596 EVP_MD_CTX_free(md_ctx);
597
598 =item 3.
599
600 Support for TLSv1.3 has been added.
601
602 This has a number of implications for SSL/TLS applications. See the
603 L<TLS1.3 page|https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3> for further details.
604
605 =back
606
607 More details about the breaking changes between OpenSSL versions 1.0.2 and 1.1.0
608 can be found on the
609 L<OpenSSL 1.1.0 Changes page|https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/OpenSSL_1.1.0_Changes>.
610
611 =head3 Upgrading from the OpenSSL 2.0 FIPS Object Module
612
613 The OpenSSL 2.0 FIPS Object Module was a separate download that had to be built
614 separately and then integrated into your main OpenSSL 1.0.2 build.
615 In OpenSSL 3.0 the FIPS support is fully integrated into the mainline version of
616 OpenSSL and is no longer a separate download. For further information see
617 L</Completing the installation of the FIPS Module>.
618
619 The function calls FIPS_mode() and FIPS_mode_set() have been removed
620 from OpenSSL 3.0. You should rewrite your application to not use them.
621 See L<fips_module(7)> and L<OSSL_PROVIDER-FIPS(7)> for details.
622
623 =head2 Completing the installation of the FIPS Module
624
625 The FIPS Module will be built and installed automatically if FIPS support has
626 been configured. The current documentation can be found in the
627 L<README-FIPS|https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/README-FIPS.md> file.
628
629 =head2 Programming
630
631 Applications written to work with OpenSSL 1.1.1 will mostly just work with
632 OpenSSL 3.0. However changes will be required if you want to take advantage of
633 some of the new features that OpenSSL 3.0 makes available. In order to do that
634 you need to understand some new concepts introduced in OpenSSL 3.0.
635 Read L<crypto(7)/Library contexts> for further information.
636
637 =head3 Library Context
638
639 A library context allows different components of a complex application to each
640 use a different library context and have different providers loaded with
641 different configuration settings.
642 See L<crypto(7)/Library contexts> for further info.
643
644 If the user creates an B<OSSL_LIB_CTX> via L<OSSL_LIB_CTX_new(3)> then many
645 functions may need to be changed to pass additional parameters to handle the
646 library context.
647
648 =head4 Using a Library Context - Old functions that should be changed
649
650 If a library context is needed then all EVP_* digest functions that return a
651 B<const EVP_MD *> such as EVP_sha256() should be replaced with a call to
652 L<EVP_MD_fetch(3)>. See L<crypto(7)/ALGORITHM FETCHING>.
653
654 If a library context is needed then all EVP_* cipher functions that return a
655 B<const EVP_CIPHER *> such as EVP_aes_128_cbc() should be replaced vith a call to
656 L<EVP_CIPHER_fetch(3)>. See L<crypto(7)/ALGORITHM FETCHING>.
657
658 Some functions can be passed an object that has already been set up with a library
659 context such as L<d2i_X509(3)>, L<d2i_X509_CRL(3)>, L<d2i_X509_REQ(3)> and
660 L<d2i_X509_PUBKEY(3)>. If NULL is passed instead then the created object will be
661 set up with the default library context. Use L<X509_new_ex(3)>,
662 L<X509_CRL_new_ex(3)>, L<X509_REQ_new_ex(3)> and L<X509_PUBKEY_new_ex(3)> if a
663 library context is required.
664
665 All functions listed below with a I<NAME> have a replacement function I<NAME_ex>
666 that takes B<OSSL_LIB_CTX> as an additional argument. Functions that have other
667 mappings are listed along with the respective name.

1011 =head3 Deprecation of Low Level Functions
1012
1013 A significant number of APIs have been deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
1014 This section describes some common categories of deprecations.
1015 See L</Deprecated function mappings> for the list of deprecated functions
1016 that refer to these categories.
1017
1018 =head4 Providers are a replacement for engines and low-level method overrides
1019
1020 Any accessor that uses an ENGINE is deprecated (such as EVP_PKEY_set1_engine()).
1021 Applications using engines should instead use providers.
1022
1023 Before providers were added algorithms were overridden by changing the methods
1024 used by algorithms. All these methods such as RSA_new_method() and RSA_meth_new()

1028
1029 Any i2d and d2i functions such as d2i_DHparams() that take a low-level key type
1030 have been deprecated. Applications should instead use the L<OSSL_DECODER(3)> and
1031 L<OSSL_ENCODER(3)> APIs to read and write files.
1032 See L<d2i_RSAPrivateKey(3)/Migration> for further details.

1035
1036 Applications that set or get low-level key objects (such as EVP_PKEY_set1_DH()
1037 or EVP_PKEY_get0()) should instead use the OSSL_ENCODER
1038 (See L<OSSL_ENCODER_to_bio(3)>) or OSSL_DECODER (See L<OSSL_DECODER_from_bio(3)>)
1039 APIs, or alternatively use L<EVP_PKEY_fromdata(3)> or L<EVP_PKEY_todata(3)>.

1041 =head4 Deprecated low-level key parameter getters
1042
1043 Functions that access low-level objects directly such as L<RSA_get0_n(3)> are now
1044 deprecated. Applications should use one of L<EVP_PKEY_get_bn_param(3)>,
1045 L<EVP_PKEY_get_int_param(3)>, l<EVP_PKEY_get_size_t_param(3)>,
1046 L<EVP_PKEY_get_utf8_string_param(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_get_octet_string_param(3)> or
1047 L<EVP_PKEY_get_params(3)> to access fields from an EVP_PKEY.
1048 Gettable parameters are listed in L<EVP_PKEY-RSA(7)/Common RSA parameters>,
1049 L<EVP_PKEY-DH(7)/DH parameters>, L<EVP_PKEY-DSA(7)/DSA parameters>,
1050 L<EVP_PKEY-FFC(7)/FFC parameters>, L<EVP_PKEY-EC(7)/Common EC parameters> and
1051 L<EVP_PKEY-X25519(7)/Common X25519, X448, ED25519 and ED448 parameters>.
1052 Applications may also use L<EVP_PKEY_todata(3)> to return all fields.

1054 =head4 Deprecated low-level key parameter setters
1055
1056 Functions that access low-level objects directly such as L<RSA_set0_crt_params(3)>
1057 are now deprecated. Applications should use L<EVP_PKEY_fromdata(3)> to create
1058 new keys from user provided key data. Keys should be immutable once they are
1059 created, so if required the user may use L<EVP_PKEY_todata(3)>, L<OSSL_PARAM_merge(3)>,
1060 and L<EVP_PKEY_fromdata(3)> to create a modified key.
1061 See L<EVP_PKEY-DH(7)/Examples> for more information.

1063 generating a key using parameters.

1066
1067 Low-level objects were created using methods such as L<RSA_new(3)>,
1068 L<RSA_up_ref(3)> and L<RSA_free(3)>. Applications should instead use the
1069 high-level EVP_PKEY APIs, e.g. L<EVP_PKEY_new(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_up_ref(3)> and
1070 L<EVP_PKEY_free(3)>.
1071 See also L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_name(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_pkey(3)>.

1079
1080 Low-level encryption functions such as L<AES_encrypt(3)> and L<AES_decrypt(3)>
1081 have been informally discouraged from use for a long time. Applications should
1082 instead use the high level EVP APIs L<EVP_EncryptInit_ex(3)>,
1083 L<EVP_EncryptUpdate(3)>, and L<EVP_EncryptFinal_ex(3)> or
1084 L<EVP_DecryptInit_ex(3)>, L<EVP_DecryptUpdate(3)> and L<EVP_DecryptFinal_ex(3)>.

1087
1088 Use of low-level digest functions such as L<SHA1_Init(3)> have been

1090 use the the high level EVP APIs L<EVP_DigestInit_ex(3)>, L<EVP_DigestUpdate(3)>
1091 and L<EVP_DigestFinal_ex(3)>, or the quick one-shot L<EVP_Q_digest(3)>.
1092
1093 Note that the functions L<SHA1(3)>, L<SHA224(3)>, L<SHA256(3)>, L<SHA384(3)>
1094 and L<SHA512(3)> have changed to macros that use L<EVP_Q_digest(3)>.

1101 See also L<EVP_SIGNATURE-RSA(7)>, L<EVP_SIGNATURE-DSA(7)>,
1102 L<EVP_SIGNATURE-ECDSA(7)> and L<EVP_SIGNATURE-ED25519(7)>.
1103
1104 =head4 Deprecated low-level MAC functions
1105
1106 Low-level mac functions such as L<CMAC_Init(3)> are deprecated.
1107 Applications should instead use the new L<EVP_MAC(3)> interface, using
1108 L<EVP_MAC_CTX_new(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_CTX_free(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_init(3)>,
1109 L<EVP_MAC_update(3)> and L<EVP_MAC_final(3)> or the single-shot MAC function
1110 L<EVP_Q_mac(3)>.
1111 See L<EVP_MAC(3)>, L<EVP_MAC-HMAC(7)>, L<EVP_MAC-CMAC(7)>, L<EVP_MAC-GMAC(7)>,

1113 L<EVP_MAC-Siphash(7)> for additional information.
1114
1115 Note that the one-shot method HMAC() is still available for compatibility purposes,
1116 but this can also be replaced by using EVP_Q_MAC if a library context is required.

1118 =head4 Deprecated low-level validation functions
1119
1120 Low-level validation functions such as L<DH_check(3)> have been informally
1121 discouraged from use for a long time. Applications should instead use the high-level

1138 L<EVP_PKEY-RSA(7)>, L<EVP_PKEY-EC(7)> and L<EVP_PKEY-X25519(7)>.
1139 The 'quick' one-shot function L<EVP_PKEY_Q_keygen(3)> and macros for the most
1140 common cases: <EVP_RSA_gen(3)> and L<EVP_EC_gen(3)> may also be used.
1141
1142 =head4 Deprecated low-level key reading and writing functions
1143
1144 Use of low-level objects (such as DSA) has been informally discouraged from use
1145 for a long time. Functions to read and write these low-level objects (such as
1146 PEM_read_DSA_PUBKEY()) should be replaced. Applications should instead use
1147 L<OSSL_ENCODER_to_bio(3)> and L<OSSL_DECODER_from_bio(3)>.

1149 =head4 Deprecated low-level key printing functions
1150
1151 Use of low-level objects (such as DSA) has been informally discouraged from use
1152 for a long time. Functions to print these low-level objects such as
1153 DSA_print() should be replaced with the equivalent EVP_PKEY functions.
1154 Application should use one of L<EVP_PKEY_print_public(3)>,
1155 L<EVP_PKEY_print_private(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_print_params(3)>,
1156 L<EVP_PKEY_print_public_fp(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_print_private_fp(3)> or

1170 There is no replacement for the IGE functions. New code should not use these modes.
1171 These undocumented functions were never integrated into the EVP layer.
1172 They implemented the AES Infinite Garble Extension (IGE) mode and AES
1173 Bi-directional IGE mode. These modes were never formally standardised and
1174 usage of these functions is believed to be very small. In particular
1175 AES_bi_ige_encrypt() has a known bug. It accepts 2 AES keys, but only one
1176 is ever used. The security implications are believed to be minimal, but

2258 such EVP_PKEY by calling L<OBJ_nid2sn(3)>. With the introduction
2259 of L<provider(7)>s EVP_PKEY_id() or its new equivalent
2260 L<EVP_PKEY_get_id(3)> might now also return the value -1
2261 (B<EVP_PKEY_KEYMGMT>) indicating the use of a provider to
2262 implement the EVP_PKEY object. Therefore, the use of
2263 L<EVP_PKEY_get0_type_name(3)> is recommended for retrieving
2264 the name of the EVP_PKEY algorithm.

2301 =head3 Other Changes
2302
2303 The output of Command line applications may have minor changes.
2304 These are primarily changes in capitalisation and white space. However, in some
2305 cases, there are additional differences.
2306 For example, the DH parameters output from B<openssl dhparam> now lists 'P',
2307 'Q', 'G' and 'pcounter' instead of 'prime', 'generator', 'subgroup order' and
2308 'counter' respectively.
2309
2310 The B<openssl> commands that read keys, certificates, and CRLs now
2311 automatically detect the PEM or DER format of the input files so it is not
2312 necessary to explicitly specify the input format anymore. However if the
2313 input format option is used the specified format will be required.
2314
2315 B<openssl speed> no longer uses low-level API calls.
2316 This implies some of the performance numbers might not be comparable with the
2317 previous releases due to higher overhead. This applies particularly to
2318 measuring performance on smaller data chunks.
2319
2320 b<openssl dhparam>, B<openssl dsa>, B<openssl gendsa>, B<openssl dsaparam>,
2321 B<openssl genrsa> and B<openssl rsa> have been modified to use PKEY APIs.
2322 B<openssl genrsa> and B<openssl rsa> now write PKCS #8 keys by default.

2344
2345 =item *
2346
2347 Support for fully "pluggable" TLSv1.3 groups.
2348
2349 This means that providers may supply their own group implementations (using
2350 either the "key exchange" or the "key encapsulation" methods) which will
2351 automatically be detected and used by libssl.
2352
2353 =item *
2354
2355 SSL and SSL_CTX options are now 64 bit instead of 32 bit.
2356
2357 The signatures of the functions to get and set options on SSL and
2358 SSL_CTX objects changed from "unsigned long" to "uint64_t" type.
2359
2360 This may require source code changes. For example it is no longer possible
2361 to use the B<SSL_OP_> macro values in preprocessor C<#if> conditions.
2362 However it is still possible to test whether these macros are defined or not.
2363
2364 See L<SSL_CTX_get_options(3)>, L<SSL_CTX_set_options(3)>,
2365 L<SSL_get_options(3)> and L<SSL_set_options(3)>.

2371 These functions now take IP literal addresses as well as actual hostnames.
2372
2373 =item *
2374
2375 Added SSL option SSL_OP_CLEANSE_PLAINTEXT
2376
2377 If the option is set, openssl cleanses (zeroizes) plaintext bytes from
2378 internal buffers after delivering them to the application. Note,
2379 the application is still responsible for cleansing other copies
2380 (e.g.: data received by L<SSL_read(3)>).
2381
2382 =item *
2383
2384 Client-initiated renegotiation is disabled by default.
2385
2386 To allow it, use the B<-client_renegotiation> option,
2387 the B<SSL_OP_ALLOW_CLIENT_RENEGOTIATION> flag, or the C<ClientRenegotiation>
2388 config parameter as appropriate.
2389
2390 =item *
2391
2392 Secure renegotiation is now required by default for TLS connections
2393
2394 Support for RFC 5746 secure renegotiation is now required by default for
2395 SSL or TLS connections to succeed. Applications that require the ability
2396 to connect to legacy peers will need to explicitly set
2397 SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT. Accordingly, SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT
2398 is no longer set as part of SSL_OP_ALL.
2399
2400 =item *
2401
2402 Combining the Configure options no-ec and no-dh no longer disables TLSv1.3
2403
2404 Typically if OpenSSL has no EC or DH algorithms then it cannot support
2405 connections with TLSv1.3. However OpenSSL now supports "pluggable" groups
2406 through providers. Therefore third party providers may supply group
2407 implementations even where there are no built-in ones. Attempting to create
2408 TLS connections in such a build without also disabling TLSv1.3 at run time or
2409 using third party provider groups may result in handshake failures. TLSv1.3
2410 can be disabled at compile time using the "no-tls1_3" Configure option.
2411
2412 =item *
2413
2414 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() and SSL_set_ciphersuites() changes.
2415
2416 The methods now ignore unknown ciphers.
2417
2418 =item *
2419
2420 Security callback change.
2421
2422 The security callback, which can be customised by application code, supports
2423 the security operation SSL_SECOP_TMP_DH. This is defined to take an EVP_PKEY
2424 in the "other" parameter. In most places this is what is passed. All these
2425 places occur server side. However there was one client side call of this
2426 security operation and it passed a DH object instead. This is incorrect
2427 according to the definition of SSL_SECOP_TMP_DH, and is inconsistent with all
2428 of the other locations. Therefore this client side call has been changed to
2429 pass an EVP_PKEY instead.
2430
2431 =item *
2432
2433 New SSL option SSL_OP_IGNORE_UNEXPECTED_EOF
2434
2435 The SSL option SSL_OP_IGNORE_UNEXPECTED_EOF is introduced. If that option
2436 is set, an unexpected EOF is ignored, it pretends a close notify was received
2437 instead and so the returned error becomes SSL_ERROR_ZERO_RETURN.
2438
2439 =item *
2440
2441 The security strength of SHA1 and MD5 based signatures in TLS has been reduced.
2442
2443 This results in SSL 3, TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0 no longer
2444 working at the default security level of 1 and instead requires security
2445 level 0. The security level can be changed either using the cipher string
2446 with C<@SECLEVEL>, or calling L<SSL_CTX_set_security_level(3)>. This also means
2447 that where the signature algorithms extension is missing from a ClientHello
2448 then the handshake will fail in TLS 1.2 at security level 1. This is because,
2449 although this extension is optional, failing to provide one means that
2450 OpenSSL will fallback to a default set of signature algorithms. This default
2451 set requires the availability of SHA1.
2452
2453 =item *
2454
2455 X509 certificates signed using SHA1 are no longer allowed at security level 1 and above.
2456
2457 In TLS/SSL the default security level is 1. It can be set either using the cipher
2458 string with C<@SECLEVEL>, or calling L<SSL_CTX_set_security_level(3)>. If the
2459 leaf certificate is signed with SHA-1, a call to L<SSL_CTX_use_certificate(3)>
2460 will fail if the security level is not lowered first.
2461 Outside TLS/SSL, the default security level is -1 (effectively 0). It can
2462 be set using L<X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_auth_level(3)> or using the B<-auth_level>
2463 options of the commands.
