3.10
This is a maintenance release, including a few each of bug
fixes, new features and optimizations.
The new version is intended to be fully source and binary
compatible with Nettle-3.6. The shared library names are
libnettle.so.8.9 and libhogweed.so.6.9, with sonames
libnettle.so.8 and libhogweed.so.6.
Bug fixes:
* Add missing hash functions sha512_224 and sha512_256 to the
nettle_get_hashes() list. The name values in the
corresponding nettle_hash structs also changed to use
underscore instead of dash, for consistency.
* Fix a few cases of formally undefined calls to memcpy(dst,
NULL, 0), resulting from valid calls to, e.g.,
sha256_update(ctx, 0, NULL).
New features:
* Support RSA-OAEP encryption. Contributed by Nicolas Mora and
Daiki Ueno.
* New function sha3_256_shake_output, new functions
sha3_128_init, sha3_128_update, sha3_128_shake,
sha3_128_shake_output. Contributed by Daiki Ueno.
* Added DRBG-CTR with AES256, contributed by Simon Josefsson.
Optimizations:
* New combined gcm-aes assembly for powerpc64, contributed by
Danny Tsen.
* New sha256 assembly for powerpc64, contributed by Eric
Richter.
* Improved performance for powerpc64 AES decrypt, by skipping
subkey transformations that don't suit the vncipher
instructions.
* Add arm64 CPU feature detection for Android and for Apple systems,
contributed by Foolbar and Tim Kosse, prespectively.
Miscellaneous:
* New tests for side-channel silence, based on valgrind.
* Delete all md5 assembly code. Delete all sparc32 assembly code.
3.9.1
This is a bugfix release, fixing a few bugs reported for
Nettle-3.9. The bug in the new OCB code may be exploitable for
denial of service or worse, since triggering it leads to
memory corruption. Upgrading from Nettle-3.9 to the new
version is strongly recommended.
The new version is intended to be fully source and binary
compatible with Nettle-3.6. The shared library names are
libnettle.so.8.8 and libhogweed.so.6.8, with sonames
libnettle.so.8 and libhogweed.so.6.
Bug fixes:
* Fix OCB loop for processing messages of size 272 bytes or
larger. Reported and fixed by Jussi Kivilinna.
* Fix alignment bug in the new x86_64 non-pclmul assembly
implementation of ghash. Reported by Henrik Grubbström.
* Fix build-time memory leak in eccdata. Reported by Noah
Watkins.
