5 Changes between 0.9.8k and 1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]

e30dd20c
DSH
7 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
8 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
9 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
10 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
11 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
12 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
13 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
14 or they could free up already freed BIOs.

c05353c5
DSH
17 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
18 OPENSSL_asc2uni the original names were too generic and cause name
19 clashes on Netware.
20 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
21
d741ccad
DSH
22 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
23 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
24
5f8f94a6
DSH
25 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
26 be used on C++.
27 [Steve Henson]
28
e5fa864f
DSH
29 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
30 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
31 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
32 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
33 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
34 attempting to work them out.
35 [Steve Henson]
36
22c98d4a
DSH
37 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
38 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
39 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
40 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
41 [Steve Henson]
42
14023fe3
DSH
43 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
44 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
45 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
46 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
47 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
48 [Steve Henson]
49
aaf35f11
DSH
50 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
51 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
52 you can do:
53
54 openssl sha256 foo
55
56 as well as:
57
58 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
59
60 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
61
62 [Steve Henson]
3ff55e96 63
b6af2c7e
DSH
64 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
65 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
66
33ab2e31
DSH
67 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
68 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
69
c2c99e28
DSH
70 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
71 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
72 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
73 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
74 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
8125d9f9
DSH
77 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
78 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
79 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
80 [Steve Henson]
81
363bd0b4
DSH
82 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
83 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
84 [Steve Henson]
85
12bf56c0
DSH
86 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
87 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
88
87d52468
DSH
89 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
90 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
91 [Steve Henson]
92
1ea6472e
BL
93 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
94 [Ben Laurie]
95
babb3798
BL
96 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
97 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
98 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1ea6472e
BL
99 CONF_VALUE.
100 [Ben Laurie]
babb3798 101
87d3a0cd
DSH
102 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
103 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
104 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
105 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
106 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
107 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
108 [Steve Henson]
109
d43c4497
DSH
110 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
111 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
112
113 This work was sponsored by Google.
114 [Steve Henson]
115
4b96839f
DSH
116 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
117 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
118 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
119 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
120 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
121 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
122 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
123 default.
124
125 This work was sponsored by Google.
126 [Steve Henson]
127
249a77f5
DSH
128 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
129
130 This work was sponsored by Google.
131 [Steve Henson]
132
d0fff69d
DSH
133 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
134 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
135 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4b96839f 136 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.

DSH
137
138 This work was sponsored by Google.
139 [Steve Henson]
140
9d84d4ed
DSH
141 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
142 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
143 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
144 CRL functionality in future.
145
146 This work was sponsored by Google.
147 [Steve Henson]
9d84d4ed 148
002e66c0
DSH
149 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
150
151 This work was sponsored by Google.
152 [Steve Henson]
153
e9746e03
DSH
154 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
155 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
156
157 This work was sponsored by Google.
158 [Steve Henson]
159
160 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
161 and URI types are currently supported.
162
163 This work was sponsored by Google.
164 [Steve Henson]
165
4c329696
GT
166 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
167 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
168 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
169 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
170 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
171 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
172 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
173 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
174
175 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
176 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
177 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
178
2ecd2ede
BM
179 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
180 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
181 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
182 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
183
4c329696
GT
184 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
185 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
186 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
187 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
188 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
189 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
190 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
191 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
192 of &errno.)
193 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
194
5cbd2033
DSH
195 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
196 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
197 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
e9746e03
DSH
198
199 This work was sponsored by Google.

200 [Steve Henson]
201
5ce278a7
BL
202 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
203 [Ben Laurie]
204
205 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
206 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
207 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
208 [Ben Laurie]
209
8671b898
BL
210 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
211 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
212 [Nick Mathewson]
213
3c1d6bbc
BL
214 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
215 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
216 [Ben Laurie]
217
8931b30d
DSH
218 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
219 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
fd47c361 220 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
eb9d8d8c
DSH
221 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
222 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
223 content types and variants.
8931b30d
DSH
224 [Steve Henson]
225
3df93571 226 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
8931b30d
DSH
227 [Steve Henson]
228
73980531
DSH
229 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
230 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
231 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
232 files from the associated perl scripts.
233 [Steve Henson]
234
0e1dba93
DSH
235 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
236 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
237 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
238
0023adb4
AP
239 *) s390x assembler pack.
240 [Andy Polyakov]
241
4c7c5ff6
AP
242 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
243 "family."
244 [Andy Polyakov]
245
761772d7
BM
246 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
247 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
248 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
249 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
250 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
251 to use. For example, specify an option
252
253 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
254
255 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
256 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
257 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
258 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
259 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
260 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
261
262 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
263 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
264 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
265 return non-zero for success.
266
267 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
268 by using
269
270 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
271 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
272
273 where
274
275 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
276 void *arg;
277
278 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
279 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
280 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
281 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
282 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
283 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
284 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
285 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
286 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
287
288 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
289 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
290 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
291 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
292 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
293 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
294
295 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
296 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
297 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
298 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
299 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
300 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
301
302 [Bodo Moeller]
303
81025661
DSH
304 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
305 MAC.
306
307 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
308
6434abbf
DSH
309 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
310 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
311 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
312 supported.
313
ba0e826d
DSH
314 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
315 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
316 SSL_SESSION.
317
318 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
319 protection in servers so again support should be possible
6434abbf
DSH
320 with no application modification.
321
322 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
323 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
324
325 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
326 or server extensions to be examined.

DSH
329 [Steve Henson]
330
3c07d3a3
DSH
331 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
332 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
333 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
334
b948e2c5
DSH
335 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
336 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
337 ciphersuite support.
338 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
339
9cfc8a9d
DSH
340 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
341 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
342 to output in BER and PEM format.
343 [Steve Henson]
344
47b71e6e
DSH
345 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
346 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
347 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2022cfe0
DSH
348 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
349 -macopt options to dgst utility.
47b71e6e
DSH
350 [Steve Henson]
351
d952c79a
DSH
352 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
353 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
354 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
355 utility.
356 [Steve Henson]
357
fd5bc65c
BM
358 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
359 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
360 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
361 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
362 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
363 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
364 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
365 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
366 enabled again.
367
368 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
369 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
370 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
371 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
372
373 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
374 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
375 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
376 the default order.
377 [Bodo Moeller]
378
0a05123a
BM
379 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
380 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
381 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
382 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
383 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
384 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
385 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
386 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
387 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
388
52b8dad8
BM
389 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
390 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
391 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
392 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
393 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
394 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
395 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
396 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
397 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
398 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
399 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
400 kinds of kludges.
401
402 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
403 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
404 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
405
406 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
407 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
408 "CAMELLIA256".
409 [Bodo Moeller]
410
357d5de5
NL
411 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
412 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
413 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
414 [Nils Larsch]
415
11d8cdc6
DSH
416 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
417 it yet and it is largely untested.
418 [Steve Henson]
419
06e2dd03
NL
420 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
421 [Nils Larsch]
422
de121164 423 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
297e6f19 424 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
a6fbcb42 425 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
de121164
DSH
426 [Steve Henson]
427
3189772e
AP
428 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
429 [Andy Polyakov]
430
010fa0b3
DSH
431 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
432 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
433 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
434 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
435 [Steve Henson]
436
5d20c4fb
DSH
437 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
438 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
439 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
440 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
441 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
442 [Steve Henson]
443
444 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
445 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
446 [Cryptocom]
447
bc7535bc
DSH
448 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
449 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
450 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
451 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
452 [Steve Henson]
453
454 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
455 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
456 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
457 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
458 [Steve Henson]
459
f6e7d014
DSH
460 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
461 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
462 [Steve Henson]
463
edc54021
DSH
464 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
465 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
466 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
467 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
468 [Steve Henson]
469
450ea834
DSH
470 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
471 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
472 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
473 [Steve Henson]
474
454dbbc5
DSH
475 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
476 utility.

b7683e3a
DSH
479 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
480 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
481 [Steve Henson]
482
483 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
484 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
485 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
486 if necessary.
487 [Steve Henson]
488
0ee2166c
DSH
489 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
490 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
491 to free up any added signature OIDs.
492 [Steve Henson]
493
5ba4bf35
DSH
494 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
495 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
496 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
497 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
498 [Steve Henson]
499
c4e7870a
BM
500 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
501 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
502 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
503 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
504 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
505 the array representation useful in a more general context.
506 [Douglas Stebila]

508 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
509 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
510 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
511 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
512 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
513
514 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
515 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
516 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
517 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
518 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
519 protocol).
520
521 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
522 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
523 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
524 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
525
526 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
527 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
528 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
529 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
530 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
531
532 aECDH - ECDH cert
533 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
534 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
535
536 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
537 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
538
539 [Bodo Moeller]

DSH
541 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
542 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
543 [Steve Henson]
544
01b8b3c7
DSH
545 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
546 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
547 [Steve Henson]
de9fcfe3 548
58aa573a 549 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
c9777d26
DSH
550 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
551 functional reference processing.
58aa573a
DSH
552 [Steve Henson]
553
91c9e621
DSH
554 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
555 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
556 process.
557 [Steve Henson]
558
55311921
DSH
559 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
560 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
561 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
562 [Steve Henson]
563
a6e7fcd1
DSH
564 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
565 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
566 application to support multiple signers.
567 [Steve Henson]
568
121dd39f
DSH
569 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
570 digest MAC.
571 [Steve Henson]
572
856640b5 573 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
b8f702a0 574 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
6d3a1eac
DSH
575 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
576 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
577 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
856640b5
DSH
578 [Steve Henson]
579
34b3c72e 580 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
959e8dfe
DSH
581 new API.
582 [Steve Henson]
583
399a6f0b
DSH
584 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
585 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
586 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
587 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
588 a no op.
589 [Steve Henson]
28e4fe34 590
03919683
DSH
591 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
592 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
593 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
594 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
595 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
596 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
597 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
598 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
599 [Steve Henson]
600
ee1d9ec0
DSH
601 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
602 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
603 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
604 between digests and public key types.
605 [Steve Henson]
606
d2027098
DSH
607 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
608 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
609 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
610 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
611 [Steve Henson]
612
492a9e24
DSH
613 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
614 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
615 key ASN1 method.
616 [Steve Henson]
617
9ca7047d
DSH
618 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
619 [Steve Henson]
620
ffb1ac67
DSH
621 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
622 pkeyutl.
623 [Steve Henson]
624
3ba0885a
DSH
625 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
626 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
627 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
628 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
629 pkey, genpkey.
630 [Steve Henson]
631
4700aea9
UM
632 *) BeOS support.
633 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
634

636 manual pages.
637 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
638
f5cda4cb
DSH
639 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
640 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
641 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
642 functionality for RSA.
643 [Steve Henson]
644
f733a5ef
DSH
645 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
646 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
647 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
648 [Steve Henson]
649
0b6f3c66
DSH
650 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
651 key API, doesn't do much yet.
652 [Steve Henson]
653
0b33dac3
DSH
654 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
655 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
656 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
657 [Steve Henson]

659 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
660 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
661 [Douglas Stebila]
662
246e0931
DSH
663 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
664 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
665 [Steve Henson]
666
3e4585c8 667 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
f5cda4cb 668 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
3e4585c8 669 type.
3e84b6e1
DSH
670 [Steve Henson]
671
35208f36
DSH
672 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
673 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
674 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
675 structure.
676 [Steve Henson]
677
448be743
DSH
678 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
679 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
680 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
681 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
682 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
683 of public and private key structures.
684 [Steve Henson]
685

690 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
691 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
692 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
693
694 New ciphersuites:
695 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
