10 Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
11
12 *) X509 certificates signed using SHA1 are no longer allowed at security
13 level 1 and above.
14 In TLS/SSL the default security level is 1. It can be set either
15 using the cipher string with @SECLEVEL, or calling
16 SSL_CTX_set_security_level(). If the leaf certificate is signed with SHA-1,
17 a call to SSL_CTX_use_certificate() will fail if the security level is not
18 lowered first.
19 Outside TLS/SSL, the default security level is -1 (effectively 0). It can
20 be set using X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_auth_level() or using the -auth_level
21 options of the apps.
22 [Kurt Roeckx]
23
24 *) Reworked the treatment of EC EVP_PKEYs with the SM2 curve to
25 automatically become EVP_PKEY_SM2 rather than EVP_PKEY_EC.
26 This means that applications don't have to look at the curve NID and
27 'EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type(pkey, EVP_PKEY_SM2)' to get SM2 computations.
28 However, they still can, that EVP_PKEY_set_alias_type() call acts as
29 a no-op when the EVP_PKEY is already of the given type.
30
31 Parameter and key generation is also reworked to make it possible
32 to generate EVP_PKEY_SM2 parameters and keys without having to go
33 through EVP_PKEY_EC generation and then change the EVP_PKEY type.
34 However, code that does the latter will still work as before.
35 [Richard Levitte]
36
37 *) Deprecated low level ECDH and ECDSA functions. These include:
38
39 ECDH_compute_key, ECDSA_do_sign, ECDSA_do_sign_ex, ECDSA_do_verify,
40 ECDSA_sign_setup, ECDSA_sign, ECDSA_sign_ex, ECDSA_verify and
41 ECDSA_size.
42
43 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
44 time. Instead applications should use the EVP_PKEY_derive(3),
45 EVP_DigestSign(3) and EVP_DigestVerify(3) functions.
46 [Paul Dale]
47
48 *) Deprecated the EC_KEY_METHOD functions. These include:
49
50 EC_KEY_METHOD_new, EC_KEY_METHOD_free, EC_KEY_METHOD_set_init,
51 EC_KEY_METHOD_set_keygen, EC_KEY_METHOD_set_compute_key,
52 EC_KEY_METHOD_set_sign, EC_KEY_METHOD_set_verify,
53 EC_KEY_METHOD_get_init, EC_KEY_METHOD_get_keygen,
54 EC_KEY_METHOD_get_compute_key, EC_KEY_METHOD_get_sign and
55 EC_KEY_METHOD_get_verify.
56
57 Instead applications and extension writers should use the OSSL_PROVIDER
58 APIs.
59 [Paul Dale]
60
61 *) Deprecated EVP_PKEY_decrypt_old(), please use EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init()
62 and EVP_PKEY_decrypt() instead.
63 Deprecated EVP_PKEY_encrypt_old(), please use EVP_PKEY_encrypt_init()
64 and EVP_PKEY_encrypt() instead.
65 [Richard Levitte]
66
67 *) Enhanced the documentation of EVP_PKEY_size(), EVP_PKEY_bits()
68 and EVP_PKEY_security_bits(). Especially EVP_PKEY_size() needed
69 a new formulation to include all the things it can be used for,
70 as well as words of caution.
71 [Richard Levitte]
72
73 *) The SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_cb(3) function has been deprecated.
74 Instead used the new SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_evp_cb(3) function.
75 [Paul Dale]
76
77 *) All of the low level HMAC functions have been deprecated including:
78 HMAC, HMAC_size, HMAC_CTX_new, HMAC_CTX_reset, HMAC_CTX_free,
79 HMAC_Init_ex, HMAC_Update, HMAC_Final, HMAC_CTX_copy, HMAC_CTX_set_flags
80 and HMAC_CTX_get_md.
81 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
82 time. Instead applications should use L<EVP_MAC_CTX_new(3)>,
83 L<EVP_MAC_CTX_free(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_init(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_update(3)>
84 and L<EVP_MAC_final(3)>.
85 [Paul Dale]
86
87 *) All of the low level CMAC functions have been deprecated including:
88 CMAC_CTX_new, CMAC_CTX_cleanup, CMAC_CTX_free, CMAC_CTX_get0_cipher_ctx,
89 CMAC_CTX_copy, CMAC_Init, CMAC_Update, CMAC_Final and CMAC_resume.
90 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for a long
91 time. Instead applications should use L<EVP_MAC_CTX_new(3)>,
92 L<EVP_MAC_CTX_free(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_init(3)>, L<EVP_MAC_update(3)>
93 and L<EVP_MAC_final(3)>.
94 [Paul Dale]
95
96 *) Over two thousand fixes were made to the documentation, including:
97 - Common options (such as -rand/-writerand, TLS version control, etc)
98 were refactored and point to newly-enhanced descriptions in openssl.pod.
99 - Added style conformance for all options (with help from Richard Levitte),
100 documented all reported missing options, added a CI build to check
101 that all options are documented and that no unimplemented options
102 are documented.
103 - Documented some internals, such as all use of environment variables.
104 - Addressed all internal broken L<> references.
105 [Rich Salz]
106
107 *) All of the low level MD2, MD4, MD5, MDC2, RIPEMD160, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256,
108 SHA384, SHA512 and Whirlpool digest functions have been deprecated.
109 These include:
110
111 MD2, MD2_options, MD2_Init, MD2_Update, MD2_Final, MD4, MD4_Init,
112 MD4_Update, MD4_Final, MD4_Transform, MD5, MD5_Init, MD5_Update,
113 MD5_Final, MD5_Transform, MDC2, MDC2_Init, MDC2_Update, MDC2_Final,
114 RIPEMD160, RIPEMD160_Init, RIPEMD160_Update, RIPEMD160_Final,
115 RIPEMD160_Transform, SHA1_Init, SHA1_Update, SHA1_Final, SHA1_Transform,
116 SHA224_Init, SHA224_Update, SHA224_Final, SHA224_Transform, SHA256_Init,
117 SHA256_Update, SHA256_Final, SHA256_Transform, SHA384, SHA384_Init,
118 SHA384_Update, SHA384_Final, SHA512, SHA512_Init, SHA512_Update,
119 SHA512_Final, SHA512_Transform, WHIRLPOOL, WHIRLPOOL_Init,
120 WHIRLPOOL_Update, WHIRLPOOL_BitUpdate and WHIRLPOOL_Final.
121
122 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged
123 for a long time. Applications should use the EVP_DigestInit_ex(3),
124 EVP_DigestUpdate(3) and EVP_DigestFinal_ex(3) functions instead.
125 [Paul Dale]
126
127 *) Corrected the documentation of the return values from the EVP_DigestSign*
128 set of functions. The documentation mentioned negative values for some
129 errors, but this was never the case, so the mention of negative values
130 was removed.
131
132 Code that followed the documentation and thereby check with something
133 like 'EVP_DigestSignInit(...) <= 0' will continue to work undisturbed.
134 [Richard Levitte]
135
136 *) All of the low level cipher functions have been deprecated including:
137
138 AES_options, AES_set_encrypt_key, AES_set_decrypt_key, AES_encrypt,
139 AES_decrypt, AES_ecb_encrypt, AES_cbc_encrypt, AES_cfb128_encrypt,
140 AES_cfb1_encrypt, AES_cfb8_encrypt, AES_ofb128_encrypt,
141 AES_wrap_key, AES_unwrap_key, BF_set_key, BF_encrypt, BF_decrypt,
142 BF_ecb_encrypt, BF_cbc_encrypt, BF_cfb64_encrypt, BF_ofb64_encrypt,
143 BF_options, Camellia_set_key, Camellia_encrypt, Camellia_decrypt,
144 Camellia_ecb_encrypt, Camellia_cbc_encrypt, Camellia_cfb128_encrypt,
145 Camellia_cfb1_encrypt, Camellia_cfb8_encrypt, Camellia_ofb128_encrypt,
146 Camellia_ctr128_encrypt, CAST_set_key, CAST_encrypt, CAST_decrypt,
147 CAST_ecb_encrypt, CAST_cbc_encrypt, CAST_cfb64_encrypt,
148 CAST_ofb64_encrypt, DES_options, DES_encrypt1, DES_encrypt2,
149 DES_encrypt3, DES_decrypt3, DES_cbc_encrypt, DES_ncbc_encrypt,
150 DES_pcbc_encrypt, DES_xcbc_encrypt, DES_cfb_encrypt, DES_cfb64_encrypt,
151 DES_ecb_encrypt, DES_ofb_encrypt, DES_ofb64_encrypt, DES_random_key,
152 DES_set_odd_parity, DES_check_key_parity, DES_is_weak_key, DES_set_key,
153 DES_key_sched, DES_set_key_checked, DES_set_key_unchecked,
154 DES_string_to_key, DES_string_to_2keys, DES_fixup_key_parity,
155 DES_ecb2_encrypt, DES_ede2_cbc_encrypt, DES_ede2_cfb64_encrypt,
156 DES_ede2_ofb64_encrypt, DES_ecb3_encrypt, DES_ede3_cbc_encrypt,
157 DES_ede3_cfb64_encrypt, DES_ede3_cfb_encrypt, DES_ede3_ofb64_encrypt,
158 DES_cbc_cksum, DES_quad_cksum, IDEA_encrypt, IDEA_options,
159 IDEA_ecb_encrypt, IDEA_set_encrypt_key, IDEA_set_decrypt_key,
160 IDEA_cbc_encrypt, IDEA_cfb64_encrypt, IDEA_ofb64_encrypt, RC2_set_key,
161 RC2_encrypt, RC2_decrypt, RC2_ecb_encrypt, RC2_cbc_encrypt,
162 RC2_cfb64_encrypt, RC2_ofb64_encrypt, RC4, RC4_options, RC4_set_key,
163 RC5_32_set_key, RC5_32_encrypt, RC5_32_decrypt, RC5_32_ecb_encrypt,
164 RC5_32_cbc_encrypt, RC5_32_cfb64_encrypt, RC5_32_ofb64_encrypt,
165 SEED_set_key, SEED_encrypt, SEED_decrypt, SEED_ecb_encrypt,
166 SEED_cbc_encrypt, SEED_cfb128_encrypt and SEED_ofb128_encrypt.
167
168 Use of these low level functions has been informally discouraged for
169 a long time. Applications should use the high level EVP APIs, e.g.
170 EVP_EncryptInit_ex, EVP_EncryptUpdate, EVP_EncryptFinal_ex, and the
171 equivalently named decrypt functions instead.
172 [Matt Caswell and Paul Dale]
173
174 *) Removed include/openssl/opensslconf.h.in and replaced it with
175 include/openssl/configuration.h.in, which differs in not including
176 <openssl/macros.h>. A short header include/openssl/opensslconf.h
177 was added to include both.
178
179 This allows internal hacks where one might need to modify the set
180 of configured macros, for example this if deprecated symbols are
181 still supposed to be available internally:
182
183 #include <openssl/configuration.h>
184
185 #undef OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED
186 #define OPENSSL_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATED
187
188 #include <openssl/macros.h>
189
190 This should not be used by applications that use the exported
191 symbols, as that will lead to linking errors.
192 [Richard Levitte]
193
194 *) Fixed an an overflow bug in the x64_64 Montgomery squaring procedure
195 used in exponentiation with 512-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are
196 affected. Analysis suggests that attacks against 2-prime RSA1024,
197 3-prime RSA1536, and DSA1024 as a result of this defect would be very
198 difficult to perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH512
199 are considered just feasible. However, for an attack the target would
200 have to re-use the DH512 private key, which is not recommended anyway.
201 Also applications directly using the low level API BN_mod_exp may be
202 affected if they use BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
203 (CVE-2019-1551)
204 [Andy Polyakov]
205
206 *) Most memory-debug features have been deprecated, and the functionality
207 replaced with no-ops.
208 [Rich Salz]
209
210 *) Introduced a new method type and API, OSSL_SERIALIZER, to
211 represent generic serializers. An implementation is expected to
212 be able to serialize an object associated with a given name (such
213 as an algorithm name for an asymmetric key) into forms given by
214 implementation properties.
215
216 Serializers are primarily used from inside libcrypto, through
217 calls to functions like EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
218 PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() and similar.
219
220 Serializers are specified in such a way that they can be made to
221 directly handle the provider side portion of an object, if this
222 provider side part comes from the same provider as the serializer
223 itself, but can also be made to handle objects in parametrized
224 form (as an OSSL_PARAM array of data). This allows a provider to
225 offer generic serializers as a service for any other provider.
226 [Richard Levitte]
227
228 *) Added a .pragma directive to the syntax of configuration files, to
229 allow varying behavior in a supported and predictable manner.
230 Currently added pragma:
231
232 .pragma dollarid:on
233
234 This allows dollar signs to be a keyword character unless it's
235 followed by a opening brace or parenthesis. This is useful for
236 platforms where dollar signs are commonly used in names, such as
237 volume names and system directory names on VMS.
238 [Richard Levitte]
239
240 *) Added functionality to create an EVP_PKEY from user data. This
241 is effectively the same as creating a RSA, DH or DSA object and
242 then assigning them to an EVP_PKEY, but directly using algorithm
243 agnostic EVP functions. A benefit is that this should be future
244 proof for public key algorithms to come.
245 [Richard Levitte]
246
247 *) Change the interpretation of the '--api' configuration option to
248 mean that this is a desired API compatibility level with no
249 further meaning. The previous interpretation, that this would
250 also mean to remove all deprecated symbols up to and including
251 the given version, no requires that 'no-deprecated' is also used
252 in the configuration.
253
254 When building applications, the desired API compatibility level
255 can be set with the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT macro like before. For
256 API compatibility version below 3.0, the old style numerical
257 value is valid as before, such as -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L.
258 For version 3.0 and on, the value is expected to be the decimal
259 value calculated from the major and minor version like this:
260
261 MAJOR * 10000 + MINOR * 100
262
263 Examples:
264
265 -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=30000 For 3.0
266 -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=30200 For 3.2
267
268 To hide declarations that are deprecated up to and including the
269 given API compatibility level, -DOPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED must be
270 given when building the application as well.
271 [Richard Levitte]
272
273 *) Added the X509_LOOKUP_METHOD called X509_LOOKUP_store, to allow
274 access to certificate and CRL stores via URIs and OSSL_STORE
275 loaders.
276
277 This adds the following functions:
278
279 X509_LOOKUP_store()
280 X509_STORE_load_file()
281 X509_STORE_load_path()
282 X509_STORE_load_store()
283 SSL_add_store_cert_subjects_to_stack()
284 SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_store()
285 SSL_CTX_load_verify_file()
286 SSL_CTX_load_verify_dir()
287 SSL_CTX_load_verify_store()
288
289 Also, the following functions are now deprecated:
290
291 - X509_STORE_load_locations() (use X509_STORE_load_file(),
292 X509_STORE_load_path() or X509_STORE_load_store() instead)
293 - SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations() (use SSL_CTX_load_verify_file(),
294 SSL_CTX_load_verify_dir() or SSL_CTX_load_verify_store() instead)
295 [Richard Levitte]
296
297 *) Added a new method to gather entropy on VMS, based on SYS$GET_ENTROPY.
298 The presence of this system service is determined at run-time.
299 [Richard Levitte]
300
301 *) Added functionality to create an EVP_PKEY context based on data
302 for methods from providers. This takes an algorithm name and a
303 property query string and simply stores them, with the intent
304 that any operation that uses this context will use those strings
305 to fetch the needed methods implicitly, thereby making the port
306 of application written for pre-3.0 OpenSSL easier.
307 [Richard Levitte]
308
309 *) The undocumented function NCONF_WIN32() has been deprecated; for
310 conversion details see the HISTORY section of doc/man5/config.pod
311 [Rich Salz]
312
313 *) Introduced the new functions EVP_DigestSignInit_ex() and
314 EVP_DigestVerifyInit_ex(). The macros EVP_DigestSignUpdate() and
315 EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate() have been converted to functions. See the man
316 pages for further details.
317 [Matt Caswell]
318
319 *) s390x assembly pack: add hardware-support for P-256, P-384, P-521,
320 X25519, X448, Ed25519 and Ed448.
321 [Patrick Steuer]
322
323 *) Print all values for a PKCS#12 attribute with 'openssl pkcs12', not just
324 the first value.
325 [Jon Spillett]
326
327 *) Deprecated the public definition of ERR_STATE as well as the function
328 ERR_get_state(). This is done in preparation of making ERR_STATE an
329 opaque type.
330 [Richard Levitte]
331
332 *) Added ERR functionality to give callers access to the stored function
333 names that have replaced the older function code based functions.
334
335 New functions are ERR_get_error_func(), ERR_peek_error_func(),
336 ERR_peek_last_error_func(), ERR_get_error_data(), ERR_peek_error_data(),
337 ERR_peek_last_error_data(), ERR_get_error_all(), ERR_peek_error_all()
338 and ERR_peek_last_error_all().
339
340 These functions have become deprecated: ERR_get_error_line_data(),
341 ERR_peek_error_line_data(), ERR_peek_last_error_line_data() and
342 ERR_func_error_string().
343 [Richard Levitte]
344
345 *) Extended testing to be verbose for failing tests only. The make variables
346 VERBOSE_FAILURE or VF can be used to enable this:
347
348 $ make VF=1 test # Unix
349 $ mms /macro=(VF=1) test ! OpenVMS
350 $ nmake VF=1 test # Windows
351
352 [Richard Levitte]
353
354 *) For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
355 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a serialized key
356 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
357 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
358 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
359 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
360 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
361 serialized, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
362 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
363 [Nicola Tuveri]
364
365 *) Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
366 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
367 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
368 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
369 (CVE-2019-1547)
370 [Billy Bob Brumley]
371
372 *) Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
373 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
374 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
375 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
376 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
377 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
378 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
379 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
380 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
381 certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
382 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
383 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
384 [Bernd Edlinger]
385
386 *) Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been
387 improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for
388 /dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom.
389 The seeded state is stored for future library initialisations using
390 a system global shared memory segment. The shared memory identifier
391 can be configured by defining OPENSSL_RAND_SEED_DEVRANDOM_SHM_ID to
392 the desired value. The default identifier is 114.
393 [Paul Dale]
394
395 *) Revised BN_generate_prime_ex to not avoid factors 2..17863 in p-1
396 when primes for RSA keys are computed.
397 Since we previously always generated primes == 2 (mod 3) for RSA keys,
398 the 2-prime and 3-prime RSA modules were easy to distinguish, since
399 N = p*q = 1 (mod 3), but N = p*q*r = 2 (mod 3). Therefore fingerprinting
400 2-prime vs. 3-prime RSA keys was possible by computing N mod 3.
401 This avoids possible fingerprinting of newly generated RSA modules.
402 [Bernd Edlinger]
403
404 *) Correct the extended master secret constant on EBCDIC systems. Without this
405 fix TLS connections between an EBCDIC system and a non-EBCDIC system that
406 negotiate EMS will fail. Unfortunately this also means that TLS connections
407 between EBCDIC systems with this fix, and EBCDIC systems without this
408 fix will fail if they negotiate EMS.
409 [Matt Caswell]
410
411 *) Changed the library initialisation so that the config file is now loaded
412 by default. This was already the case for libssl. It now occurs for both
413 libcrypto and libssl. Use the OPENSSL_INIT_NO_LOAD_CONFIG option to
414 OPENSSL_init_crypto() to suppress automatic loading of a config file.
415 [Matt Caswell]
416
417 *) Introduced new error raising macros, ERR_raise() and ERR_raise_data(),
418 where the former acts as a replacement for ERR_put_error(), and the
419 latter replaces the combination ERR_put_error()+ERR_add_error_data().
420 ERR_raise_data() adds more flexibility by taking a format string and
421 an arbitrary number of arguments following it, to be processed with
422 BIO_snprintf().
423 [Richard Levitte]
424
425 *) Introduced a new function, OSSL_PROVIDER_available(), which can be used
426 to check if a named provider is loaded and available. When called, it
427 will also activate all fallback providers if such are still present.
428 [Richard Levitte]
429
430 *) Enforce a minimum DH modulus size of 512 bits.
431 [Bernd Edlinger]
432
433 *) Changed DH parameters to generate the order q subgroup instead of 2q.
434 Previously generated DH parameters are still accepted by DH_check
435 but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the
436 private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key.
437 [Bernd Edlinger]
438
439 *) Significantly reduce secure memory usage by the randomness pools.
440 [Paul Dale]
441
442 *) {CRYPTO,OPENSSL}_mem_debug_{push,pop} are now no-ops and have been
443 deprecated.
444 [Rich Salz]
445
446 *) A new type, EVP_KEYEXCH, has been introduced to represent key exchange
447 algorithms. An implementation of a key exchange algorithm can be obtained
448 by using the function EVP_KEYEXCH_fetch(). An EVP_KEYEXCH algorithm can be
449 used in a call to EVP_PKEY_derive_init_ex() which works in a similar way to
450 the older EVP_PKEY_derive_init() function. See the man pages for the new
451 functions for further details.
452 [Matt Caswell]
453
454 *) The EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_pad() macro has now been converted to a function.
455 [Matt Caswell]
456
457 *) Removed the function names from error messages and deprecated the
458 xxx_F_xxx define's.
459
460 *) Removed NextStep support and the macro OPENSSL_UNISTD
461 [Rich Salz]
462
463 *) Removed DES_check_key. Also removed OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL,
464 OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF, OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL.
465 Also removed "export var as function" capability; we do not export
466 variables, only functions.
467 [Rich Salz]
468
469 *) RC5_32_set_key has been changed to return an int type, with 0 indicating
470 an error and 1 indicating success. In previous versions of OpenSSL this
471 was a void type. If a key was set longer than the maximum possible this
472 would crash.
473 [Matt Caswell]
474
475 *) Support SM2 signing and verification schemes with X509 certificate.
476 [Paul Yang]
477
478 *) Use SHA256 as the default digest for TS query in the ts app.
479 [Tomas Mraz]
480
481 *) Change PBKDF2 to conform to SP800-132 instead of the older PKCS5 RFC2898.
482 This checks that the salt length is at least 128 bits, the derived key
483 length is at least 112 bits, and that the iteration count is at least 1000.
484 For backwards compatibility these checks are disabled by default in the
485 default provider, but are enabled by default in the fips provider.
486 To enable or disable these checks use the control
487 EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_PBKDF2_PKCS5_MODE.
488 [Shane Lontis]
489
490 *) Default cipher lists/suites are now available via a function, the
491 #defines are deprecated.
492 [Todd Short]
493
494 *) Add target VC-WIN32-UWP, VC-WIN64A-UWP, VC-WIN32-ARM-UWP and
495 VC-WIN64-ARM-UWP in Windows OneCore target for making building libraries
496 for Windows Store apps easier. Also, the "no-uplink" option has been added.
497 [Kenji Mouri]
498
499 *) Join the directories crypto/x509 and crypto/x509v3
500 [Richard Levitte]
501
502 *) Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
503 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
504 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
505 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
506 [Kurt Roeckx]
507
508 *) Added command 'openssl kdf' that uses the EVP_KDF API.
509 [Shane Lontis]
510
511 *) Added command 'openssl mac' that uses the EVP_MAC API.
512 [Shane Lontis]
513
514 *) Added OPENSSL_info() to get diverse built-in OpenSSL data, such
515 as default directories. Also added the command 'openssl info'
516 for scripting purposes.
517 [Richard Levitte]
518
519 *) The functions AES_ige_encrypt() and AES_bi_ige_encrypt() have been
520 deprecated. These undocumented functions were never integrated into the EVP
521 layer and implement the AES Infinite Garble Extension (IGE) mode and AES
522 Bi-directional IGE mode. These modes were never formally standardised and
523 usage of these functions is believed to be very small. In particular
524 AES_bi_ige_encrypt() has a known bug. It accepts 2 AES keys, but only one
525 is ever used. The security implications are believed to be minimal, but
526 this issue was never fixed for backwards compatibility reasons. New code
527 should not use these modes.
528 [Matt Caswell]
529
530 *) Add prediction resistance to the DRBG reseeding process.
531 [Paul Dale]
532
533 *) Limit the number of blocks in a data unit for AES-XTS to 2^20 as
534 mandated by IEEE Std 1619-2018.
535 [Paul Dale]
536
537 *) Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
538 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the '*sum'
539 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
540 [Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale]
541
542 *) Removed the heartbeat message in DTLS feature, as it has very
543 little usage and doesn't seem to fulfill a valuable purpose.
544 The configuration option is now deprecated.
545 [Richard Levitte]
546
547 *) Changed the output of 'openssl {digestname} < file' to display the
548 digest name in its output.
549 [Richard Levitte]
550
551 *) Added a new generic trace API which provides support for enabling
552 instrumentation through trace output. This feature is mainly intended
553 as an aid for developers and is disabled by default. To utilize it,
554 OpenSSL needs to be configured with the `enable-trace` option.
555
556 If the tracing API is enabled, the application can activate trace output
557 by registering BIOs as trace channels for a number of tracing and debugging
558 categories.
559
560 The 'openssl' application has been expanded to enable any of the types
561 available via environment variables defined by the user, and serves as
562 one possible example on how to use this functionality.
563 [Richard Levitte & Matthias St. Pierre]
564
565 *) Added build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
566 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
567 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
568
569 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
570 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
571 [Richard Levitte]
572
573 *) Add Single Step KDF (EVP_KDF_SS) to EVP_KDF.
574 [Shane Lontis]
575
576 *) Add KMAC to EVP_MAC.
577 [Shane Lontis]
578
579 *) Added property based algorithm implementation selection framework to
580 the core.
581 [Paul Dale]
582
583 *) Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
584 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
585 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
586 to affine coordinates.
587 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
588
589 *) Added EVP_KDF, an EVP layer KDF API, to simplify adding KDF and PRF
590 implementations. This includes an EVP_PKEY to EVP_KDF bridge for
591 those algorithms that were already supported through the EVP_PKEY API
592 (scrypt, TLS1 PRF and HKDF). The low-level KDF functions for PBKDF2
593 and scrypt are now wrappers that call EVP_KDF.
594 [David Makepeace]
595
596 *) Build devcrypto engine as a dynamic engine.
597 [Eneas U de Queiroz]
598
599 *) Add keyed BLAKE2 to EVP_MAC.
600 [Antoine Salon]
601
602 *) Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
603 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
604 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
605 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
606 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
607 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
608
609 *) Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
610 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
611 [Bernd Edlinger]
612
613 *) Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
614 [Richard Levitte]
615
616 *) Change the license to the Apache License v2.0.
617 [Richard Levitte]
618
619 *) Switch to a new version scheme using three numbers MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
620
621 o Major releases (indicated by incrementing the MAJOR release number)
622 may introduce incompatible API/ABI changes.
623 o Minor releases (indicated by incrementing the MINOR release number)
624 may introduce new features but retain API/ABI compatibility.
625 o Patch releases (indicated by incrementing the PATCH number)
626 are intended for bug fixes and other improvements of existing
627 features only (like improving performance or adding documentation)
628 and retain API/ABI compatibility.
629 [Richard Levitte]
630
631 *) Add support for RFC5297 SIV mode (siv128), including AES-SIV.
632 [Todd Short]
633
634 *) Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
635 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
636 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
637 [Richard Levitte]
638
639 *) Recreate the OS390-Unix config target. It no longer relies on a
640 special script like it did for OpenSSL pre-1.1.0.
641 [Richard Levitte]
642
643 *) Instead of having the source directories listed in Configure, add
644 a 'build.info' keyword SUBDIRS to indicate what sub-directories to
645 look into.
646 [Richard Levitte]
647
648 *) Add GMAC to EVP_MAC.
649 [Paul Dale]
650
651 *) Ported the HMAC, CMAC and SipHash EVP_PKEY_METHODs to EVP_MAC.
652 [Richard Levitte]
653
654 *) Added EVP_MAC, an EVP layer MAC API, to simplify adding MAC
655 implementations. This includes a generic EVP_PKEY to EVP_MAC bridge,
656 to facilitate the continued use of MACs through raw private keys in
657 functionality such as EVP_DigestSign* and EVP_DigestVerify*.
658 [Richard Levitte]
659
660 *) Deprecate ECDH_KDF_X9_62() and mark its replacement as internal. Users
661 should use the EVP interface instead (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_type).
662 [Antoine Salon]
663
664 *) Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
665 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
666 are retained for backwards compatibility.
667 [Antoine Salon]
668
669 *) AES-XTS mode now enforces that its two keys are different to mitigate
670 the attacked described in "Efficient Instantiations of Tweakable
671 Blockciphers and Refinements to Modes OCB and PMAC" by Phillip Rogaway.
672 Details of this attack can be obtained from:
673 http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/%7Erogaway/papers/offsets.pdf
674 [Paul Dale]
675
676 *) Rename the object files, i.e. give them other names than in previous
677 versions. Their names now include the name of the final product, as
678 well as its type mnemonic (bin, lib, shlib).
679 [Richard Levitte]
680
681 *) Added new option for 'openssl list', '-objects', which will display the
682 list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names.
683 [Richard Levitte]
684
685 *) Added support for Linux Kernel TLS data-path. The Linux Kernel data-path
686 improves application performance by removing data copies and providing
687 applications with zero-copy system calls such as sendfile and splice.
688 [Boris Pismenny]
689
690 Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [xx XXX xxxx]
691
692 *) Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
693 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
694 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
695 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
696 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
697 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
698 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
699 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
700 applications.
701 [Matt Caswell]
702
703 Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
704
705 *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
706
707 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
708 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
709 algorithm to recover the private key.
710
711 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
712 (CVE-2018-0734)
713 [Paul Dale]
714
715 *) Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
716
717 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
718 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
719 algorithm to recover the private key.
720
721 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
722 (CVE-2018-0735)
723 [Paul Dale]
724
725 *) Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
726 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
727 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
728
729 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
730 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
731 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
732 provided by the application.
733
734 Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
735
736 *) Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
737 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
738 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
739 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
740 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
741 of the ClientHello
742 [Benjamin Kaduk]
743
744 *) Add SM2 base algorithm support.
745 [Jack Lloyd]
746
747 *) s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
748 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
749 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
750 [Patrick Steuer]
751
752 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
753 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
754 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
755 [Richard Levitte]
756
757 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
758 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
759 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
760 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
761 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
762 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
763 to work in projective coordinates.
764 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
765
766 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
767 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
768 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
769 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
770 to 2^-128.
771 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
772
773 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
774 [Kurt Roeckx]
775
776 *) The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
777 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
778 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
779 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
780 [Richard Levitte]
781
782 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
783 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
784 [Andy Polyakov]
785
786 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
787 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
788 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
789 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
790 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
791
792 *) Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
793 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
794 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
795 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
796 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
797 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
798
799 *) Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
800 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
801 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
802 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
803 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
804 [Paul Dale]
805
806 *) Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
807 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
808 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
809 authors.
810 [Matt Caswell]
811
812 *) AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
813 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
814 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
815 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
816 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
817 multi-version installation is managed.
818 [Andy Polyakov]
819
820 *) Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
821 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
822 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
823 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
824 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
825 [Billy Bob Brumley]
826
827 *) Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
828 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
829 chosen point SCA attacks.
830 [Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley]
831
832 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
833 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
834 [Matt Caswell]
835
836 *) Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
837 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
838 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
839 [Matt Caswell]
840
841 *) SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
842 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
843 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
844 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
845 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
846 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
847 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
848 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
849 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
850 [Kurt Roeckx]
851
852 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
853 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
854 [Richard Levitte]
855
856 *) Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
857 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
858 [Billy Bob Brumley]
859
860 *) Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
861 binary and prime elliptic curves.
862 [Billy Bob Brumley]
863
864 *) Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
865 constant time fixed point multiplication.
866 [Billy Bob Brumley]
867
868 *) Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
869 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
870 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
871 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
872 ECDH derive operations).
873 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
874 Sohaib ul Hassan]
875
876 *) Updated CONTRIBUTING
877 [Rich Salz]
878
879 *) Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
880 randomness from the system.
881 [Matthias St. Pierre]
882
883 *) Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
884 [Richard Levitte]
885
886 *) Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
887 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
888 [Matt Caswell]
889
890 *) Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
891 [Matt Caswell]
892
893 *) Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
894 [Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz]
895
896 *) Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
897 [Richard Levitte]
898
899 *) Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
900 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
901 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
902 [Matt Caswell]
903
904 *) Memory allocation failures consistently add an error to the error
905 stack.
906 [Rich Salz]
907
908 *) Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
909 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
910 [Bernd Edlinger]
911
912 *) Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
913 [Matt Caswell]
914
915 *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
916 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
917 [Matthias St. Pierre]
918
919 *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
920 for the license change).
921 [Rich Salz]
922
923 *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
924 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
925 [Matt Caswell]
926
927 *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
928 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
929 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
930 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
931 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
932 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
933 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
934 [Matt Caswell]
935
936 *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
937 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
938 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
939 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
940 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
941 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
942 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
943 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
944 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
945 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
946 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
947 written to stderr.
948 [Viktor Dukhovni]
949
950 *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
951 Mike Hamburg.
952 [Matt Caswell]
953
954 *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
955 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
956 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
957 get the search data out of them.
958 [Richard Levitte]
959
960 *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
961 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
962 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
963 https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3
964 [Matt Caswell]
965
966 *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
967
968 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
969 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
970 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
971 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
972 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
973 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
974
975 Some of its new features are:
976 o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
977 o The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
978 o There is a public and private DRBG instance.
979 o The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
980 o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
981 o The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
982 operation
983 [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
984
985 *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
986 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
987 to display all sorts of configuration data.
988 [Richard Levitte]
989
990 *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
991 [Richard Levitte]
992
993 *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
994 [Paul Dale]
995
996 *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
997 now been removed.
998 [Rich Salz]
999
1000 *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
1001 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
1002 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
1003 debug (or make silent).
1004 [Richard Levitte]
1005
1006 *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
1007 arguments to config / Configure.
1008 [Richard Levitte]
1009
1010 *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
1011 [Paul Yang]
1012
1013 *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
1014 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
1015 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
1016 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
1017
1018 *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
1019 as documented in RFC6066.
1020 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
1021 [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
1022
1023 *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
1024 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
1025 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
1026 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
1027
1028 *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
1029 original author does not agree with the license change.
1030 [Rich Salz]
1031
1032 *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
1033 [Jon Spillett]
1034
1035 *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
1036 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
1037 [Rich Salz]
1038
1039 *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
1040 without clearing the errors.
1041 [Richard Levitte]
1042
1043 *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
1044 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
1045 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
1046 [Rich Salz]
1047
1048 *) Add SHA3.
1049 [Andy Polyakov]
1050
1051 *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
1052 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
1053 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
1054 as a fallback).
1055
1056 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
1057 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
1058 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
1059 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
1060 [Richard Levitte]
1061
1062 *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
1063 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
1064 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
1065 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
1066 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
1067 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
1068 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
1069 [Richard Levitte]
1070
1071 *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
1072 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
1073 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
1074 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
1075 [Richard Levitte]
1076
1077 *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
1078 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
1079 error code calls like this:
1080
1081 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
1082
1083 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
1084 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
1085 affect new modules.
1086 [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
1087
1088 *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
1089 [Rich Salz]
1090
1091 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
1092 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
1093 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
1094 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
1095 [Richard Levitte]
1096
1097 *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
1098 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
1099 than just the call where this user data is passed.
1100 [Richard Levitte]
1101
1102 *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
1103 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
1104 [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
1105
1106 *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
1107 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
1108 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
1109 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
1110 prohibts this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
1111 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
1112 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause inter-operability
1113 issues.
1114 [Matt Caswell]
1115
1116 *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
1117 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
1118 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
1119 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
1120 [Richard Levitte]
1121
1122 *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
1123 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
1124 [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
1125
1126 *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
1127 does for RSA, etc.
1128 [Richard Levitte]
1129
1130 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
1131 platform rather than 'mingw'.
1132 [Richard Levitte]
1133
1134 *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
1135 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
1136 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
1137 certificates and CRLs.
1138 [Paul Dale]
1139
1140 *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
1141 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
1142 [Andy Polyakov]
1143
1144 *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
1145 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
1146 [Richard Levitte]
1147
1148 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
1149 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
1150 which is the minimum version we support.
1151 [Richard Levitte]
1152
1153 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
1154 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
1155 are no longer allowed.
1156 [Emilia Käsper]
1157
1158 *) Add support for ARIA
1159 [Paul Dale]
1160
1161 *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
1162 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
1163 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
1164 using "-servername".
1165 [Matt Caswell]
1166
1167 *) Add support for SipHash
1168 [Todd Short]
1169
1170 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
1171 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
1172 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
1173 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
1174 [Matt Caswell]
1175
1176 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
1177 using the algorithm defined in
1178 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
1179 [Richard Levitte]
1180
1181 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
1182 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
1183
1184 *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
1185 [Emilia Käsper]
1186
1187 *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
1188 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
1189 [Rich Salz]
1190
1191
1192 Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [xx XXX xxxx]
1193
1194 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
1195
1196 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
1197 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
1198 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
1199 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
1200 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
1201
1202 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
1203 (CVE-2018-0732)
1204 [Guido Vranken]
1205
1206 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
1207
1208 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
1209 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
1210 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
1211 recover the private key.
1212
1213 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
1214 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
1215 (CVE-2018-0737)
1216 [Billy Brumley]
1217
1218 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
1219 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
1220 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
1221 [Richard Levitte]
1222
1223 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
1224 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
1225 [Andy Polyakov]
1226
1227 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
1228 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
1229 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
1230 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
1231 to 2^-128.
1232 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
1233
1234 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
1235 [Kurt Roeckx]
1236
1237 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
1238 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
1239 [Matt Caswell]
1240
1241 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
1242 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
1243 [Richard Levitte]
1244
1245 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
1246 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
1247 are no longer allowed.
1248 [Emilia Käsper]
1249
1250 *) Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
1251
1252 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
1253 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
1254 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
1255 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
1256 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
1257 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
1258 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
1259 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
1260 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
1261 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
1262 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
1263 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
1264 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).
1265 [Matt Caswell]
1266
1267 Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
1268
1269 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
1270
1271 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
1272 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
1273 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
1274 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
1275 so this is considered safe.
1276
1277 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
1278 project.
1279 (CVE-2018-0739)
1280 [Matt Caswell]
1281
1282 *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
1283
1284 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
1285 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
1286 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
1287 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
1288 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
1289 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
1290
1291 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
1292 (IBM).
1293 (CVE-2018-0733)
1294 [Andy Polyakov]
1295
1296 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
1297 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
1298 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
1299 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
1300 [Richard Levitte]
1301
1302 *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
1303
1304 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
1305 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
1306 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
1307 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
1308 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
1309
1310 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
1311 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
1312 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
1313 [Matt Caswell]
1314
1315 *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
1316 exist.
1317 [Rich Salz]
1318
1319 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
1320
1321 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
1322 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
1323 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
1324 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
1325 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
1326 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
1327 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
1328 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
1329 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
1330 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
1331
1332 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
1333 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
1334
1335 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
1336 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
1337 (CVE-2017-3738)

1339
1340 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
1341
1342 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
1343
1344 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
1345 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
1346 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
1347 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
1348 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
1349 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
1350 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
1351 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
1352 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
1353 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
1354 key that is shared between multiple clients.
1355
1356 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
1357 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
1358
1359 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
1360 (CVE-2017-3736)
1361 [Andy Polyakov]
1362
1363 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
1364
1365 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
1366 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
1367 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
1368
1369 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
1370 (CVE-2017-3735)
1371 [Rich Salz]
1372
1373 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
1374
1375 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
1376 platform rather than 'mingw'.
1377 [Richard Levitte]
1378
1379 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
1380 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
1381 which is the minimum version we support.

1383
1384 Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
1385
1386 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
1387
1388 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
1389 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
1390 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
1391 and servers are affected.
1392
1393 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
1394 (CVE-2017-3733)

1396
1397 Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
1398
1399 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
1400
1401 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
1402 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
1403 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
1404
1405 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
1406 (CVE-2017-3731)
1407 [Andy Polyakov]
1408
1409 *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
1410
1411 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
1412 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
1413 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
1414 of Service attack.
1415
1416 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
1417 (CVE-2017-3730)
1418 [Matt Caswell]
1419
1420 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
1421
1422 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
1423 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
1424 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
1425 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
1426 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
1427 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
1428 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
1429 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
1430 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
1431 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
1432 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
1433 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
1434 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
1435
1436 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.

1441
1442 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
1443
1444 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
1445 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
1446 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.

1455 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
1456 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
1457 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
1458 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
1459 affected.
1460
1461 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
1462 (CVE-2016-7053)
1463 [Stephen Henson]
1464
1465 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
1466
1467 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
1468 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
1469 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
1470 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
1471 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
1472 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
1473 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
1474 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
1475 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
1476 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
1477 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
1478 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
1479 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
1480 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
1481
1482 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
1483 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
1484 providing reproducible case.
1485 (CVE-2016-7055)
1486 [Andy Polyakov]
1487
1488 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
1489 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
1490 [Richard Levitte]
1491
1492 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
1493
1494 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
1495
1496 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
1497 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
1498 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
1499 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
1500 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
1501 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
1502
1503 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
1504
1505 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.
1506 (CVE-2016-6309)
1507 [Matt Caswell]
1508
1509 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
1510
1511 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
1512
1513 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
1514 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
1515 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
1516 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
1517 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
1518 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
1519 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
1520
1521 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1522 (CVE-2016-6304)
1523 [Matt Caswell]
1524
1525 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
1526
1527 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
1528 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
1529 Denial Of Service attack.
1530
1531 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
1532 (CVE-2016-6305)
1533 [Matt Caswell]
1534
1535 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
1536 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
1537
1538 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
1539 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
1540 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
1541 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
1542 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
1543 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
1544 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
1545 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
1546 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
1547 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
1548 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
1549 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
1550 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
1551 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
1552 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
1553
1554 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
1555 that the connection fails
1556 or
1557 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
1558 very little free memory
1559 or
1560 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
1561 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
1562 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
1563 memory to service the multiple requests.
1564
1565 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
1566 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
1567 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
1568 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
1569 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
1570
1571 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1572 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
1573 [Matt Caswell]
1574
1575 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
1576 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
1577 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
1578 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
1579 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
1580 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
1581 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
1582 [Andy Polyakov]
1583
1584 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
1585
1586 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
1587 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
1588 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
1589 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
1590 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
1591 non-ASCII password.
1592 [Andy Polyakov]
1593
1594 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
1595 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
1596 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
1597 [Rich Salz]
1598
1599 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
1600 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
1601 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
1602 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
1603 [Matt Caswell]
1604
1605 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
1606 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
1607 success.
1608 [Matt Caswell]
1609
1610 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
1611 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
1612 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
1613 no-ops and deprecated.
1614 [Matt Caswell]
1615
1616 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
1617 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
1618 were also closed.
1619 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
1620
1621 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
1622 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
1623 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
1624 [Rich Salz]
1625
1626 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
1627 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
1628 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
1629 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
1630 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
1631 and the validity of object reference counter.
1632 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
1633
1634 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
1635 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
1636 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
1637 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
1638 [Richard Levitte]
1639
1640 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
1641 [Richard Levitte]
1642
1643 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
1644 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
1645 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
1646 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
1647
1648 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
1649
1650 [Richard Levitte]
1651
1652 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
1653 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
1654 [Steve Henson]
1655
1656 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
1657 [Andy Polyakov]
1658
1659 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
1660 [Rich Salz]
1661
1662 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
1663 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
1664 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
1665 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
1666 name and is used as is.
1667 [Richard Levitte]
1668
1669 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
1670 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
1671 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
1672 [Rich Salz]
1673
1674 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
1675 the "no-shared" Configure option.
1676 [Matt Caswell]
1677
1678 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
1679 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
1680 algorithms.
1681 [Matt Caswell]
1682
1683 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
1684 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
1685 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
1686 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
1687 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
1688 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
1689 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
1690 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
1691 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
1692 [Matt Caswell]
1693
1694 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
1695 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
1696 enabled with '--debug' builds.
1697 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
1698
1699 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
1700 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1701 these have been added.
1702 [Matt Caswell]
1703
1704 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
1705 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
1706 functions for managing these have been added.
1707 [Richard Levitte]
1708
1709 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1710 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1711 these have been added.
1712 [Matt Caswell]
1713
1714 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1715 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1716 have been added.
1717 [Matt Caswell]
1718
1719 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1720 [Matt Caswell]
1721
1722 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1723 [Richard Levitte]
1724
1725 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1726 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1727 [Rich Salz]
1728
1729 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1730 [Richard Levitte]
1731
1732 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1733 [Rich Salz]
1734
1735 *) Add support for HKDF.
1736 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1737
1738 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1739 [Bill Cox]
1740
1741 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1742 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1743 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1744 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1745 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1746 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1747 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1748 [Matt Caswell]
1749
1750 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1751 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1752 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1753 [Catriona Lucey]
1754
1755 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1756 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1757 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1758 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1759 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1760 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1761 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1762
1763 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1764 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1765 [Todd Short]
1766
1767 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1768 [Todd Short]
1769
1770 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1771 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1772 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1773 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1774 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1775 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1776 default cipherlist.
1777 [Emilia Käsper]
1778
1779 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1780 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1781 [Rich Salz]
1782
1783 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1784 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1785 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1786 [Matt Caswell]
1787
1788 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1789 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1790 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1791 implemented by other servers.
1792 [Emilia Käsper]
1793
1794 *) Add X25519 support.
1795 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1796 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1797 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1798 key generation and key derivation.
1799
1800 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1801 X25519(29).
1802 [Steve Henson]
1803
1804 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1805 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1806 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1807 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1808 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1809
1810 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1811 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1812 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1813 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1814 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1815 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1816 that of a valid user.
1817 [Emilia Käsper]
1818
1819 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1820 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1821 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1822 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1823
1824 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1825 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1826
1827 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1828 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1829 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1830 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1831
1832 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1833 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1834 irrelevant.
1835 [Richard Levitte]
1836
1837 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1838 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1839 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1840 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1841 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1842 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1843
1844 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1845 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1846 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1847 [Richard Levitte]
1848
1849 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1850 [Rich Salz]
1851
1852 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1853 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1854 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1855 removed.
1856 [Richard Levitte]
1857
1858 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1859 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1860 old #define's might need to be updated.
1861 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1862
1863 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1864 [Rich Salz]
1865
1866 *) New "unified" build system
1867
1868 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1869 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1870
1871 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1872 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1873 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1874
1875 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1876 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1877 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1878 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1879 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1880
1881 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1882 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1883 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1884 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1885 libraries" in INSTALL.
1886
1887 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1888 [Richard Levitte]
1889
1890 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1891 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1892 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1893 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1894 [Matt Caswell]
1895
1896 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1897 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1898
1899 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1900 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1901 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1902 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1903 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1904 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1905 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1906 have been adapted accordingly.
1907 [Richard Levitte]
1908
1909 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1910 the leading 0-byte.
1911 [Emilia Käsper]
1912
1913 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1914 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1915 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1916 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1917 [Emilia Käsper]
1918
1919 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1920 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1921 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1922 'unsigned char*'.
1923 [Emilia Käsper]
1924
1925 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1926 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1927 [Emilia Käsper]
1928
1929 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1930 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1931 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1932 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1933 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1934 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1935 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1936
1937 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1938 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1939
1940 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1941 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1942 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1943 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1944 Text::Template.
1945
1946 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1947 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1948 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1949 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1950 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1951 %target).
1952 [Richard Levitte]
1953
1954 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1955 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1956 straightforward and less interdependent.
1957
1958 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1959 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1960 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1961
1962 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1963 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1964 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1965 installed.
1966 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1967 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1968 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1969 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1970
1971 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1972 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1973 [Richard Levitte]
1974
1975 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1976 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1977 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1978 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1979 is present).
1980 [Matt Caswell]
1981
1982 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1983 configuring.
1984 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1985
1986 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1987 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1988 before trying to build now.*
1989 [Rich Salz]
1990
1991 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1992 has changed.
1993 [Rich Salz]
1994
1995 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1996
1997 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1998 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1999 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
2000 used to authenticate the peer.
2001
2002 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
2003 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
2004 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
2005 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
2006 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
2007 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2008
2009 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
2010 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
2011 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
2012 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
2013 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
2014 or the 1.1.0 releases.
2015
2016 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
2017 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
2018 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
2019 support for the deprecated features from the library and
2020 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
2021 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
2022 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
2023 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
2024 version.
2025
2026 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
2027 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
2028 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
2029 compile with later releases.
2030
2031 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
2032 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
2033 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
2034 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
2035 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
2036 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2037
2038 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
2039 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
2040 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
2041 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
2042 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
2043 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
2044 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
2045 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
2046 [Kurt Roeckx]
2047
2048 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
2049 [Andy Polyakov]
2050
2051 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
2052 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
2053 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
2054 ECDSA_SIG format.
2055
2056 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
2057 include the ec.h header file instead.
2058 [Steve Henson]
2059
2060 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
2061 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
2062 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
2063 [Kurt Roeckx]
2064
2065 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
2066 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
2067 were added:
2068
2069 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
2070 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
2071
2072 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
2073 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
2074 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
2075
2076 Additional changes:
2077 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
2078 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
2079 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
2080 an already created structure.
2081 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
2082 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
2083 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
2084 for deprecated builds.
2085 [Richard Levitte]
2086
2087 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
2088 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
2089 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
2090 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
2091 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
2092 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
2093 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
2094 [Matt Caswell]
2095
2096 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
2097 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
2098 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
2099 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
2100 [Kurt Roeckx]
2101
2102 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
2103 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
2104 [Kurt Roeckx]
2105
2106 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
2107 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
2108 [Kurt Roeckx]
2109
2110 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
2111 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
2112 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
2113 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
2114 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
2115 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
2116 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
2117 also been removed.
2118 [Matt Caswell]
2119
2120 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
2121 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
2122 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
2123 [Rich Salz]
2124
2125 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
2126 [Rich Salz]
2127
2128 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
2129 sureware and ubsec.
2130 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
2131
2132 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
2133
2134 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
2135 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
2136
2137 FOO *x;
2138
2139 it must be:
2140
2141 FOO x;
2142
2143 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
2144 set a mandatory field to NULL.
2145
2146 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
2147 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
2148 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
2149 SEQUENCE OF.
2150 [Steve Henson]
2151
2152 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
2153 [Emilia Käsper]
2154
2155 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
2156 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
2157 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
2158 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
2159 [Matt Caswell]
2160
2161 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2162 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
2163 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
2164 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
2165 [Emilia Käsper]
2166
2167 *) Fix no-stdio build.
2168 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
2169 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
2170
2171 *) New testing framework
2172 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
2173 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
2174 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
2175 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
2176 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
2177 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
2178
2179 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
2180
2181 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
2182 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
2183
2184 [Richard Levitte]
2185
2186 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
2187 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
2188 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
2189 and others were changed. All are now documented.
2190 [Rich Salz]
2191
2192 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
2193 return an error
2194 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
2195
2196 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
2197 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
2198
2199 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
2200 original RSA_PSK patch.
2201 [Steve Henson]
2202
2203 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
2204 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
2205 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
2206 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
2207 [Matt Caswell]
2208
2209 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
2210 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
2211 [Richard Levitte]
2212
2213 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
2214 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
2215 hasn't been working properly for a while.
2216 [Emilia Käsper]
2217
2218 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
2219 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
2220 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
2221 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
2222 transferred.
2223 [Matt Caswell]
2224
2225 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
2226 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
2227 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
2228 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
2229 [Matt Caswell]
2230
2231 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
2232 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
2233 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
2234 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
2235 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
2236 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
2237 [Matt Caswell]
2238
2239 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
2240 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
2241 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
2242 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
2243 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
2244 header file has been removed.
2245 [Matt Caswell]
2246
2247 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
2248 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
2249 [Matt Caswell]
2250
2251 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
2252 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
2253 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
2254
2255 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
2256 Added a test.
2257 [Rich Salz]
2258
2259 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
2260 [Rich Salz]
2261
2262 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
2263 sha256
2264 [Rich Salz]
2265
2266 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
2267 [Matt Caswell]
2268
2269 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
2270 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
2271 initial patch which was a great help during development.
2272 [Steve Henson]
2273
2274 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
2275 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
2276 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
2277 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
2278 [Matt Caswell]
2279
2280 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
2281 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
2282 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
2283 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
2284 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
2285 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
2286 [Matt Caswell]
2287
2288 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
2289 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
2290 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
2291 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
2292 [Matt Caswell]
2293
2294 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
2295 compatible client hello.
2296 [Kurt Roeckx]
2297
2298 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
2299 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
2300 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
2301
2302 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
2303 [Rich Salz]
2304
2305 *) Removed old DES API.
2306 [Rich Salz]
2307
2308 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
2309 Sony NEWS4
2310 BEOS and BEOS_R5
2311 NeXT
2312 SUNOS
2313 MPE/iX
2314 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
2315 DGUX
2316 NCR
2317 Tandem
2318 Cray
2319 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
2320 [Rich Salz]
2321
2322 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
2323 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
2324 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
2325 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
2326 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
2327 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
2328 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
2329 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
2330 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
2331 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
2332 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
2333 [Rich Salz]
2334
2335 *) Cleaned up dead code
2336 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
2337 [Rich Salz]
2338
2339 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
2340 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
2341 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
2342 [Rich Salz]
2343
2344 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
2345 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
2346 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
2347 [Rich Salz]
2348
2349 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
2350 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
2351 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
2352
2353 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
2354 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
2355 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
2356
2357 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
2358 compilation flags.
2359 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2360
2361 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
2362 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
2363 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2364
2365 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
2366 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2367
2368 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
2369 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
2370 server.
2371
2372 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
2373 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
2374 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
2375 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
2376
2377 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
2378 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
2379 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
2380 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
2381
2382 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
2383 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
2384 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
2385
2386 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2387 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2388 [Steve Henson]
2389
2390 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
2391
2392 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
2393 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
2394
2395 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
2396 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
2397
2398 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
2399 effect.
2400
2401 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
2402
2403 [Steve Henson]
2404
2405 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2406 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2407 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2408 algorithms and include tests cases.
2409 [Steve Henson]
2410
2411 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
2412 enveloped data.
2413 [Steve Henson]
2414
2415 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2416 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2417 [Steve Henson]
2418
2419 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
2420 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]

2422 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
2423 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
2424 [Steve Henson]
2425
2426 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
2427 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
2428 failures.
2429 [Steve Henson]
2430
2431 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
2432 sign or verify all in one operation.
2433 [Steve Henson]
2434
2435 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
2436 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
2437 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
2438 [Steve Henson]
2439
2440 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
2441 [Steve Henson]
2442
2443 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
2444 [Steve Henson]
2445
2446 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
2447 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
2448 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
2449 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
2450 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
2451 [Steve Henson]
2452
2453 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
2454 based on NID.
2455 [Steve Henson]
2456
2457 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
2458 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
2459 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
2460 [Steve Henson]
2461
2462 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
2463 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
2464
2465 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
2466 POST to handle HMAC cases.
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
2470 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
2471 [Steve Henson]
2472
2473 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
2474 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
2475 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2476 [Steve Henson]
2477
2478 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
2479 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
2480 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
2481 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
2482 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
2483 requested amount of entropy.
2484 [Steve Henson]
2485
2486 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
2487 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
2488 [Steve Henson]
2489
2490 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
2491 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
2492 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
2493 support.
2494 [Steve Henson]
2495
2496 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
2497 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
2498 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
2499 [Steve Henson]
2500
2501 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
2502 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
2503 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
2504 will never use XTS mode.
2505 [Steve Henson]
2506
2507 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
2508 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
2509 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
2510 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
2511 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
2512 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
2513 [Steve Henson]
2514
2515 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
2516 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
2517 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
2518 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
2519 [Steve Henson]
2520
2521 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
2522 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
2523 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
2524 [Steve Henson]
2525
2526 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
2527 [Steve Henson]
2528
2529 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
2530 [Steve Henson]
2531
2532 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
2533 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
2534 [Steve Henson]
2535
2536 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
2537 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
2538 [Steve Henson]
2539
2540 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
2541 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
2542 [Steve Henson]
2543
2544 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
2545 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
2546 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
2547 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
2548 and rename any affected symbols.
2549 [Steve Henson]
2550
2551 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
2552 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
2553 [Steve Henson]
2554
2555 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
2556 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
2557 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
2558 [Steve Henson]
2559
2560 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2561 [Steve Henson]
2562
2563 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
2564 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
2565 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
2566 [Steve Henson]
2567
2568 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
2569 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
2570 [Steve Henson]
2571
2572 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
2573 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
2574 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
2575 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
2576 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
2577 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
2578 set before the key.
2579 [Steve Henson]
2580
2581 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
2582 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
2583 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
2584 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
2585 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
2586 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
2587 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
2588 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
2589 [Steve Henson]
2590
2591 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
2592 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
2593 [Steve Henson]
2594
2595 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
2596
2597 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2598 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2599
2600 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
2601 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
2602 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
2603 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
2604 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
2605 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
2606
2607 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
2608 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
2609 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
2610 security.
2611 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2612
2613 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
2614 parameters by name.
2615 [Steve Henson]
2616
2617 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
2618 Add CMAC pkey methods.
2619 [Steve Henson]
2620
2621 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
2622 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
2623 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
2624 [Steve Henson]
2625
2626 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
2627 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
2628 multi-process servers.
2629 [Steve Henson]
2630
2631 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
2632 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
2633 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
2634 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
2635 RAND_METHOD structure.
2636 [Steve Henson]
2637
2638 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
2639 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
2640 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
2641 whose return value is often ignored.
2642 [Steve Henson]
2643
2644 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
2645 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
2646 validated when establishing a connection.

2649 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
2650
2651 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
2652
2653 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
2654 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
2655 AES-NI.
2656
2657 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
2658 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
2659 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
2660 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
2661 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
2662 bytes.
2663
2664 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
2665 (CVE-2016-2107)
2666 [Kurt Roeckx]
2667
2668 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
2669
2670 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
2671 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
2672 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
2673 corruption.
2674
2675 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
2676 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
2677 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
2678 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
2679 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
2680 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
2681
2682 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2683 (CVE-2016-2105)
2684 [Matt Caswell]
2685
2686 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
2687
2688 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
2689 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
2690 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
2691 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
2692 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
2693 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
2694 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
2695 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
2696 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
2697 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
2698 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
2699 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
2700 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
2701 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
2702 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
2703 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
2704
2705 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2706 (CVE-2016-2106)
2707 [Matt Caswell]
2708
2709 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2710
2711 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2712 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2713 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2714
2715 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2716 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2717 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2718 applications are not affected.
2719
2720 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
2721 (CVE-2016-2109)
2722 [Stephen Henson]
2723
2724 *) EBCDIC overread
2725
2726 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2727 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2728 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
2729
2730 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2731 (CVE-2016-2176)
2732 [Matt Caswell]
2733
2734 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2735 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2736 [Todd Short]
2737
2738 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
2739 default.
2740 [Kurt Roeckx]
2741
2742 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
2743 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
2744 [Kurt Roeckx]
2745
2746 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2747
2748 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2749 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2750 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2751 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2752
2753 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2754 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2755 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2756 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2757 will need to explicitly call either of:
2758
2759 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2760 or
2761 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2762
2763 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2764 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2765 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2766 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2767 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
2768 (CVE-2016-0800)
2769 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2770
2771 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2772
2773 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2774 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2775 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2776 considered rare.
2777
2778 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2779 libFuzzer.
2780 (CVE-2016-0705)
2781 [Stephen Henson]
2782
2783 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2784
2785 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2786
2787 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2788 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2789 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2790 is configured.
2791
2792 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2793 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2794 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2795 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2796 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2797 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2798 that of a valid user.
2799 (CVE-2016-0798)
2800 [Emilia Käsper]
2801
2802 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2803
2804 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2805 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2806 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2807 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2808 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2809 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2810 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2811 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2812 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2813 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2814 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2815
2816 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2817 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2818 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2819 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2820 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
2821
2822 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
2823 (CVE-2016-0797)
2824 [Matt Caswell]
2825
2826 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2827
2828 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2829 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2830 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2831
2832 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2833 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2834 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2835 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2836 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2837 also occur.
2838
2839 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2840 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2841 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2842 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2843 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2844 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2845 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2846 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2847 as command line arguments.
2848
2849 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2850 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2851 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
2852
2853 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
2854 (CVE-2016-0799)
2855 [Matt Caswell]
2856
2857 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2858
2859 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2860 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2861 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2862 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2863 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2864
2865 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2866 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and

2875 apps to use 2048 bits by default.

2877
2878 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2879 *) DH small subgroups
2880
2881 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2882 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2883 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2884 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2885 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2886 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2887 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2888 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2889 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2890 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2891
2892 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2893 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2894 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2895 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2896 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2897
2898 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2899 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2900 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2901 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2902
2903 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2904 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
2905
2906 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
2907 (CVE-2016-0701)
2908 [Matt Caswell]
2909
2910 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
2911
2912 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
2913 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
2914 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2915 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
2916
2917 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
2918 and Sebastian Schinzel.

2922 Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
2923
2924 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2925
2926 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2927 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2928 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2929 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2930 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2931 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2932 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2933 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2934 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2935 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2936 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2937 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2939 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
2940 (CVE-2015-3193)
2941 [Andy Polyakov]
2942
2943 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
2944
2945 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2946 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2947 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2948 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2949 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
2950 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
2951 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
2952 authentication.
2953
2954 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
2955 (CVE-2015-3194)
2956 [Stephen Henson]
2957
2958 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
2959
2960 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
2961 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
2962 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
2963 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
2964
2965 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
2966 libFuzzer.
2967 (CVE-2015-3195)
2968 [Stephen Henson]
2969
2970 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2971 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
2972 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
2973 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.

2979
2980 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
2981
2982 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
2983
2984 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
2985 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2986 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2987 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2988 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2989 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
2990
2991 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
2992 (Google/BoringSSL).

2994
2995 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]

2998 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
2999 restored.

3001
3002 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
3003
3004 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
3005
3006 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
3007 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
3008 field.
3009
3010 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
3011 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
3012 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
3013 client authentication enabled.
3014
3015 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
3016 (CVE-2015-1788)
3017 [Andy Polyakov]
3018
3019 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
3020
3021 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
3022 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
3023 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
3024 time string.
3025
3026 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
3027 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
3028 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
3029 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
3030 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
3031 callbacks.
3032
3033 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
3034 independently by Hanno Böck.
3035 (CVE-2015-1789)
3036 [Emilia Käsper]
3037
3038 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
3039
3040 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
3041 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
3042 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
3043
3044 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
3045 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
3046 servers are not affected.
3047
3048 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
3049 (CVE-2015-1790)
3050 [Emilia Käsper]
3051
3052 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
3053
3054 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
3055 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
3056 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
3057 the CMS code.
3058 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
3059 (CVE-2015-1792)
3060 [Stephen Henson]
3061
3062 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
3063
3064 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
3065 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
3066 a double free of the ticket data.
3067 (CVE-2015-1791)
3068 [Matt Caswell]
3069
3070 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the

3075 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
3076
3077 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
3078
3079 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
3080 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
3081 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
3082
3083 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
3084 University.
3085 (CVE-2015-0291)
3086 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
3087
3088 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
3089
3090 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
3091 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
3092 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
3093 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
3094 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
3095 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
3096 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
3097 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
3098
3099 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
3100 (CVE-2015-0290)
3101 [Matt Caswell]
3102
3103 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
3104
3105 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
3106 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
3107 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
3108 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
3109 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
3110 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
3111 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
3112 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
3113 server.
3114
3115 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
3116 (CVE-2015-0207)
3117 [Matt Caswell]
3118
3119 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
3120
3121 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
3122 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
3123 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
3124 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
3125 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
3126 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
3127 (CVE-2015-0286)
3128 [Stephen Henson]
3129
3130 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
3131
3132 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
3133 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
3134 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
3135 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
3136 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
3137 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
3138 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
3139
3140 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
3141 (CVE-2015-0208)
3142 [Stephen Henson]
3143
3144 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
3145
3146 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
3147 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
3148 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
3149
3150 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
3151 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
3152 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
3153 not affected.
3154 (CVE-2015-0287)
3155 [Stephen Henson]
3156
3157 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
3158
3159 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
3160 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
3161 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
3162
3163 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
3164 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
3165 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
3166
3167 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
3168 (CVE-2015-0289)
3169 [Emilia Käsper]
3170
3171 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
3172
3173 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
3174 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
3175 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
3176
3177 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
3178 (OpenSSL development team).
3179 (CVE-2015-0293)
3180 [Emilia Käsper]
3181
3182 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
3183
3184 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
3185 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
3186 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
3187 (CVE-2015-1787)
3188 [Matt Caswell]
3189
3190 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
3191
3192 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
3193 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
3194 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
3195 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
3196 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
3197 SSL_client_methodv23)
3198 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
3199 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
3200
3201 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
3202 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
3203 output may be predictable.
3204
3205 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
3206 succeed on an unpatched platform:
3207
3208 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
3209 (CVE-2015-0285)
3210 [Matt Caswell]
3211
3212 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
3213
3214 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
3215 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
3216 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
3217 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
3218 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
3219 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
3220
3221 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
3222 commit 517073cd4b.
3223 (CVE-2015-0209)
3224 [Matt Caswell]
3225
3226 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
3227
3228 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
3229 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
3230
3231 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.

3235 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
3236 [Kurt Roeckx]
3237
3238 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
3239
3240 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
3241 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
3242 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
3243 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
3244 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
3245 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
3246 [Andy Polyakov]
3247
3248 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
3249 (other platforms pending).
3250 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
3251
3252 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
3253 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
3254 [Rob Stradling]
3255
3256 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3257 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3258 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3259 [Bodo Moeller]
3260
3261 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
3262 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
3263 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
3264 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
3265 [Andy Polyakov]
3266
3267 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
3268 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
3269
3270 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
3271 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
3272 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
3273 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
3274 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
3275
3276 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
3277 [Andy Polyakov]
3278
3279 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
3280 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
3281 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
3282 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
3283
3284 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
3285 RSAZ.
3286 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
3287
3288 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
3289 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
3290 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
3291 for TLS encrypt.
3292
3293 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
3294 [Andy Polyakov]
3295
3296 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
3297 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
3298 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
3299 [Steve Henson]
3300
3301 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
3302 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
3303 [Steve Henson]
3304
3305 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
3306 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
3307 [Steve Henson]
3308
3309 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
3310 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
3311 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
3312 algorithms and include tests cases.
3313 [Steve Henson]
3314
3315 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
3316 structure.
3317 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
3318
3319 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
3320 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
3321 [Steve Henson]
3322
3323 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
3324 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
3325 summary of the connection parameters.
3326 [Steve Henson]
3327
3328 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
3329 of connection parameters.
3330 [Steve Henson]
3331
3332 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
3333 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
3334
3335 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
3336 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
3337 [Steve Henson]
3338
3339 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
3340 [Steve Henson]
3341
3342 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
3343 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
3344 [Steve Henson]
3345
3346 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
3347 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
3348 [Steve Henson]
3349
3350 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
3351 certificates.
3352 [Steve Henson]
3353
3354 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
3355 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
3356 CRLs using the OCSP API.
3357 [Steve Henson]
3358
3359 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
3360 [Steve Henson]
3361
3362 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
3363 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
3364 [Steve Henson]
3365
3366 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
3367 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
3368 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
3369 tracing.
3370 [Steve Henson]
3371
3372 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
3373 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
3374 [Steve Henson]
3375
3376 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
3377 OID NID.
3378 [Steve Henson]
3379
3380 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
3381 client to OpenSSL.
3382 [Steve Henson]
3383
3384 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
3385 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
3386 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
3387 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
3388 [Steve Henson]
3389
3390 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
3391 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
3392 [Steve Henson]
3393
3394 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
3395 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
3396 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
3397 comparison.
3398 [Steve Henson]
3399
3400 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
3401 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
3402 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
3403 use the certificate.
3404 [Steve Henson]
3405
3406 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
3407 [Steve Henson]
3408
3409 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
3410 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
3411 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
3412 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
3413 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
3414 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
3415 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
3416
3417 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
3418 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
3419
3420 [Steve Henson]
3421
3422 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
3423 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
3424 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
3425 [Steve Henson]
3426
3427 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
3428 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
3429 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
3430 supported signature algorithms.
3431 [Steve Henson]
3432
3433 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
3434 [Steve Henson]
3435
3436 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
3437 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
3438 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
3439 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
3440 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
3441 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
3442 certificate and specify the whole chain.
3443 [Steve Henson]
3444
3445 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
3446 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
3447 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
3448 to have similar checks in it.
3449
3450 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
3451 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
3452 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
3453 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
3454 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
3455 [Steve Henson]
3456
3457 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
3458 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
3459 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
3460 shared signature algorithms.
3461 [Steve Henson]
3462
3463 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
3464 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
3465 to support them.
3466 [Steve Henson]
3467
3468 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
3469 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
3470 it couldn't be removed.
3471 [Steve Henson]
3472
3473 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
3474 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
3475 [Steve Henson]
3476
3477 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
3478 functions. Add manual page.
3479 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
3480
3481 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
3482 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
3483 a certificate.
3484 [Steve Henson]
3485
3486 *) Fix OCSP checking.
3487 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
3488
3489 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
3490 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
3491 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
3492 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
3493 utility) or reject.
3494 [Steve Henson]
3495
3496 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
3497 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
3498 [Steve Henson]
3499
3500 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
3501 platform support for Linux and Android.
3502 [Andy Polyakov]
3503
3504 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
3505 [Andy Polyakov]
3506
3507 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
3508 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
3509 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
3510 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
3511 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
3512 [Steve Henson]
3513
3514 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
3515 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
3516 the new parameter format automatically.
3517 [Steve Henson]
3518
3519 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
3520 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
3521 [Steve Henson]
3522
3523 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
3524 [Steve Henson]
3525
3526 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
3527 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
3528 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
3529 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
3530 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
3531 [Steve Henson]
3532
3533 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
3534 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
3535 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
3536 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
3537 to set list of supported curves.
3538 [Steve Henson]
3539
3540 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
3541 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
3542 to print out received values.
3543 [Steve Henson]
3544
3545 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
3546 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
3547 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
3548 [Steve Henson]
3549
3550 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
3551 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
3552 [Steve Henson]
3553
3554 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
3555 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
3556 [Steve Henson]
3557
3558 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
3559 certificates.
3560 [Steve Henson]
3561
3562 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
3563 the certificate.
3564 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
3565 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
3566 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
3567
3568 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
3569
3570 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
3571 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
3572
3573 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
3574
3575 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
3576 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
3577 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
3578 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
3579 (CVE-2014-3571)
3580 [Steve Henson]
3581
3582 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
3583 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
3584 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
3585 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
3586 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
3587 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
3588 (CVE-2015-0206)
3589 [Matt Caswell]
3590
3591 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
3592 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
3593 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
3594 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
3595 (CVE-2014-3569)
3596 [Kurt Roeckx]
3597
3598 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
3599 ECDH ciphersuites.
3600
3601 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
3602 reporting this issue.
3603 (CVE-2014-3572)
3604 [Steve Henson]
3605
3606 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
3607 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
3608 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
3609 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
3610 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
3611 INRIA or reporting this issue.
3612 (CVE-2015-0204)
3613 [Steve Henson]
3614
3615 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
3616 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
3617 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
3618 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
3619 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
3620 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
3621 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
3622 this issue.
3623 (CVE-2015-0205)
3624 [Steve Henson]
3625
3626 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
3627 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
3628
3629 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
3630 and can vary with the CTX.
3631 [Adam Langley]
3632
3633 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
3634
3635 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
3636 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
3637 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
3638 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
3639 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
3640
3641 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
3642
3643 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
3644 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
3645
3646 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
3647
3648 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
3649 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
3650 errors for some broken certificates.
3651
3652 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
3653
3654 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
3655
3656 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
3657 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
3658
3659 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
3660 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
3661 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
3662 (negative or with leading zeroes).
3663
3664 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
3665 of the OpenSSL core team.
3666
3667 (CVE-2014-8275)
3668 [Steve Henson]
3669
3670 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
3671 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
3672 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
3673 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
3674 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
3675 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
3676 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
3677 the OpenSSL core team.
3678 (CVE-2014-3570)
3679 [Andy Polyakov]
3680
3681 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
3682 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
3683 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
3684 sanity and breaks all known clients.
3685 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
3686
3687 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
3688 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
3689 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
3690 [Emilia Käsper]
3691
3692 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
3693 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
3694 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3695 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
3696 announced in the initial ServerHello.
3697
3698 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
3699 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3700 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
3701 [Emilia Käsper]
3702
3703 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
3704
3705 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
3706
3707 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
3708 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
3709 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3710 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3711 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3712 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3713 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3714
3715 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3716 (CVE-2014-3513)
3717 [OpenSSL team]
3718
3719 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3720
3721 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3722 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3723 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3724 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3725 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3726 attack.
3727 (CVE-2014-3567)
3728 [Steve Henson]
3729
3730 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3731
3732 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3733 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3734 configured to send them.
3735 (CVE-2014-3568)
3736 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3737
3738 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3739 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3740 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3741 (CVE-2014-3566)
3742 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3743
3744 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3745
3746 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3747 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3748 DigestInfo structures.
3749
3750 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
3751
3752 [Steve Henson]
3753
3754 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3755
3756 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3757 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3758 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3759
3760 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3761 Group for discovering this issue.
3762 (CVE-2014-3512)
3763 [Steve Henson]
3764
3765 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3766 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3767 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3768 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3769 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3770
3771 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3772 researching this issue.
3773 (CVE-2014-3511)
3774 [David Benjamin]
3775
3776 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3777 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3778 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3779 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3780
3781 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3782 issue.
3783 (CVE-2014-3510)
3784 [Emilia Käsper]
3785
3786 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3787 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3788 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3789 (CVE-2014-3507)
3790 [Adam Langley]
3791
3792 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3793 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3794 Denial of Service attack.
3795 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3796 (CVE-2014-3506)
3797 [Adam Langley]
3798
3799 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3800 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3801 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3802 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3803 this issue.
3804 (CVE-2014-3505)
3805 [Adam Langley]
3806
3807 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3808 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3809 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3810
3811 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3812 issue.
3813 (CVE-2014-3509)
3814 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3815
3816 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3817 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3818 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3819 Denial of Service attack.
3820
3821 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3822 discovering and researching this issue.
3823 (CVE-2014-5139)
3824 [Steve Henson]
3825
3826 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3827 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3828 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3829 output to the attacker.
3830
3831 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3832 (CVE-2014-3508)
3833 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3834
3835 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3836 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3837 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3838 [Bodo Moeller]
3839
3840 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3841
3842 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3843 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3844 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3845
3846 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3847 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3848 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3849
3850 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3851 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3852 in a DoS attack.
3853
3854 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3855 (CVE-2014-0221)
3856 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3857
3858 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3859 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3860 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3861 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3862
3863 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3864 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3865
3866 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3867 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3868
3869 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3870 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3871 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3872
3873 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3874 compilation flags.
3875 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3876
3877 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3878 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3879 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3880
3881 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3882 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3883
3884 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3885
3886 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3887 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3888 server.
3889
3890 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3891 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3892 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3893 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3894
3895 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3896 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3897 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3898 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3899
3900 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3901 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3902 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3903
3904 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3905
3906 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3907 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3908 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3909 is at least 512 bytes long.
3910
3911 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
3912
3913 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3914
3915 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3916 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3917 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3918 (CVE-2013-4353)
3919
3920 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3921 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3922 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3923 [Steve Henson]
3924
3925 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3926 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3927 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3928 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3929 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3930 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3931 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3932
3933 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3934
3935 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3936 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3937 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3938
3939 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3940
3941 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3942
3943 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3944 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3945 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3946
3947 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3948 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3949 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
3950 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
3951 (CVE-2013-0169)
3952 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3953
3954 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3955 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3956 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
3957 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
3958 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
3959 (CVE-2012-2686)
3960 [Adam Langley]
3961
3962 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3963 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3964 [Steve Henson]
3965
3966 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3967 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3968
3969 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3970 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3971 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3972 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
3973 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
3974
3975 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3976 [Steve Henson]
3977
3978 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3979 if renegotiating.
3980 [Steve Henson]
3981
3982 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3983
3984 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3985 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3986
3987 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3988 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3989 (CVE-2012-2333)
3990 [Steve Henson]
3991
3992 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3993 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3994 [Steve Henson]
3995
3996 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3997 approved.
3998 [Steve Henson]
3999
4000 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
4001
4002 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
4003 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
4004 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
4005 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
4006 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
4007 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
4008 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
4009 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
4010 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
4011 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
4012 [Steve Henson]
4013
4014 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
4015 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
4016 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
4017 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
4018 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
4019 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
4020 client side.
4021 [Andy Polyakov]
4022
4023 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
4024
4025 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
4026 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
4027 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
4028
4029 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
4030 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
4031 (CVE-2012-2110)
4032 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
4033
4034 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
4035 [Adam Langley]
4036
4037 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
4038 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
4039
4040 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
4041 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
4042 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
4043 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
4044 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
4045 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
4046 Most broken servers should now work.
4047 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
4048 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
4049 [Steve Henson]
4050
4051 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
4052 [Andy Polyakov]
4053
4054 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
4055
4056 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
4057 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
4058 [Steve Henson]
4059
4060 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
4061 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
4062 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
4063 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
4064 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
4065 [Steve Henson]
4066
4067 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
4068 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
4069 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
4070 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
4071 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
4072 [Steve Henson]
4073
4074 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
4075 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
4076
4077 *) Add support for SCTP.
4078 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
4079
4080 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
4081 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
4082
4083 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
4084
4085 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
4086 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
4087 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
4088 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
4089 - s390x: z196 support;
4090 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
4091
4092 [Andy Polyakov]
4093
4094 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
4095 (removal of unnecessary code)
4096 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
4097
4098 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
4099 [Eric Rescorla]
4100
4101 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
4102 [Eric Rescorla]
4103
4104 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
4105 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
4106 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
4107 by Google.
4108 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
4109
4110 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
4111 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
4112 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
4113 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
4114 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
4115
4116 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
4117 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
4118 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
4119
4120 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
4121 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
4122 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
4123
4124 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
4125 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
4126 implementations).
4127 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4128
4129 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
4130 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
4131 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
4132 [Steve Henson]
4133
4134 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
4135 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
4136 particular PSS.
4137 [Steve Henson]
4138
4139 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
4140 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
4141 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
4142 [Steve Henson]
4143
4144 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
4145 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
4146 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
4147 the appropriate parameters.
4148 [Steve Henson]
4149
4150 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
4151 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
4152 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
4153 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
4154 against a number of sample certificates.
4155 [Steve Henson]
4156
4157 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
4158 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
4159
4160 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
4161 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
4162
4163 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
4164 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
4165 parameters r, s.
4166 [Steve Henson]
4167
4168 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
4169 RFC3211.
4170 [Steve Henson]
4171
4172 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
4173 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
4174 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
4175 password based CMS).
4176 [Steve Henson]
4177
4178 *) Session-handling fixes:
4179 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
4180 but also support Session Tickets.
4181 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
4182 presented a ticket with an expired session.
4183 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
4184 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
4185 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
4186 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4187
4188 *) Fix PSK session representation.
4189 [Bodo Moeller]
4190
4191 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
4192
4193 This work was sponsored by Intel.
4194 [Andy Polyakov]
4195
4196 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
4197 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
4198 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
4199 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
4200 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
4201 [Steve Henson]
4202
4203 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
4204 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
4205 [Steve Henson]
4206
4207 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
4208 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
4209 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
4210 [Steve Henson]
4211
4212 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
4213 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
4214 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
4215 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
4216 [Steve Henson]
4217
4218 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
4219 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
4220 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
4221 [Steve Henson]
4222
4223 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
4224 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
4225
4226 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
4227 [Steve Henson]
4228
4229 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
4230 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
4231 [Steve Henson]
4232
4233 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
4234 [Steve Henson]
4235
4236 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
4237 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
4238 [Steve Henson]
4239
4240 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
4241 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
4242 [Steve Henson]
4243
4244 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
4245 [Steve Henson]
4246
4247 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
4248 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
4249 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
4250 [Steve Henson]
4251
4252 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
4253 [Steve Henson]
4254
4255 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
4256 [Steve Henson]
4257
4258 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
4259 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
4260 [Steve Henson]
4261
4262 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
4263 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
4264 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
4265 [Steve Henson]
4266
4267 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
4268 [Steve Henson]
4269
4270 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
4271 and enable MD5.
4272 [Steve Henson]
4273
4274 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
4275 FIPS modules versions.
4276 [Steve Henson]
4277
4278 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
4279 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
4280 until after the certificate request message is received.
4281 [Steve Henson]
4282
4283 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
4284 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
4285 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
4286 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
4287 [Steve Henson]
4288
4289 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
4290 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
4291 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
4292 support yet and no support for client certificates.
4293 [Steve Henson]
4294
4295 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
4296 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
4297 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
4298 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
4299 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
4300 and version checking.
4301 [Steve Henson]
4302
4303 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
4304 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
4305 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
4306 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
4307 [Steve Henson]
4308
4309 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
4310 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
4311 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
4312 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
4313 Ben Laurie]
4314
4315 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
4316 [Steve Henson]
4317
4318 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
4319 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
4320 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
4321
4322 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
4323 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
4324 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
4325 [Steve Henson]
4326
4327 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
4328 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
4329
4330 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
4331 a few changes are required:
4332
4333 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
4334 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
4335 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
4336 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
4337 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
4338 [Steve Henson]
4339
4340 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
4341
4342 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
4343 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
4344 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
4345 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
4346 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
4347 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
4348 an MMA defence is not necessary.
4349 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
4350 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
4351 [Steve Henson]
4352
4353 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
4354 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
4355 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
4356 [Steve Henson]
4357
4358 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
4359
4360 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
4361 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
4362 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
4363 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
4364 [Antonio Martin]
4365
4366 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
4367
4368 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
4369 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
4370 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
4371 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
4372 differences arising during decryption processing. A research

4375 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
4376 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
4377 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
4378 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
4379 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
4380 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
4381
4382 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
4383 (CVE-2011-4576)
4384 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4385
4386 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
4387 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
4388 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
4389 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4390
4391 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
4392 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
4393
4394 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
4395 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
4396 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
4397 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
4398
4399 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
4400 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
4401
4402 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
4403 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4404
4405 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
4406 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
4407
4408 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
4409 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
4410 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4411
4412 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
4413 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
4414 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
4415
4416 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
4417 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
4418 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
4419 the last update always remained unused).
4420 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
4421
4422 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
4423 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
4424
4425 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
4426
4427 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
4428 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
4429 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
4430
4431 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
4432 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
4433 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4434
4435 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
4436 [Bodo Moeller]
4437
4438 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
4439 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
4440 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
4441 [Steve Henson]
4442
4443 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
4444 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
4445
4446 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
4447
4448 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
4449
4450 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
4451
4452 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
4453 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4454
4455 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
4456 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
4457 ambiguous.
4458 [Steve Henson]
4459
4460 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
4461
4462 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
4463 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
4464 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
4465 [Steve Henson]
4466
4467 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
4468 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
4469 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
4470 [Ben Laurie]
4471
4472 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
4473
4474 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
4475 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
4476 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
4477 [Steve Henson]
4478
4479 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
4480 a DLL.
4481 [Steve Henson]
4482
4483 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
4484
4485 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
4486 (CVE-2010-1633)
4487 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
4488
4489 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
4490
4491 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
4492 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
4493 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
4494 [Steve Henson]
4495
4496 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
4497 [Steve Henson]
4498
4499 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
4500 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
4501 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
4502
4503 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
4504 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
4505 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
4506 [Steve Henson]
4507
4508 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
4509 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
4510 [Steve Henson]
4511
4512 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
4513 some responders need this.
4514 [Steve Henson]
4515
4516 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
4517 correctly.
4518 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4519
4520 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
4521 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
4522 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
4523 [Steve Henson]
4524
4525 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
4526 [Steve Henson]
4527
4528 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
4529 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
4530 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
4531 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
4532 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
4533 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
4534 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
4535 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
4536 [Steve Henson]
4537
4538 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
4539 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
4540 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
4541 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4542
4543 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
4544 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
4545
4546 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
4547 be used on C++.
4548 [Steve Henson]
4549
4550 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
4551 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
4552 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
4553 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
4554 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
4555 attempting to work them out.
4556 [Steve Henson]
4557
4558 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
4559 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
4560 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
4561 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
4562 [Steve Henson]
4563
4564 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
4565 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
4566 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
4567 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
4568 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
4569 [Steve Henson]
4570
4571 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
4572 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
4573 you can do:
4574
4575 openssl sha256 foo
4576
4577 as well as:
4578
4579 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
4580
4581 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
4582
4583 [Steve Henson]
4584
4585 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
4586 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4587
4588 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
4589 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
4590
4591 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
4592 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
4593 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
4594 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
4595 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
4596 [Steve Henson]
4597
4598 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
4599 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
4600 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
4601 [Steve Henson]
4602
4603 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
4604 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
4605 [Steve Henson]
4606
4607 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
4608 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
4609
4610 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
4611 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
4612 [Steve Henson]
4613
4614 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
4615 [Ben Laurie]
4616
4617 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
4618 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
4619 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
4620 CONF_VALUE.
4621 [Ben Laurie]
4622
4623 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
4624 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
4625 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
4626 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
4627 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
4628 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
4629 [Steve Henson]
4630
4631 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
4632 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
4633
4634 This work was sponsored by Google.
4635 [Steve Henson]
4636
4637 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
4638 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
4639 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
4640 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
4641 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
4642 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
4643 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
4644 default.
4645
4646 This work was sponsored by Google.
4647 [Steve Henson]
4648
4649 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
4650
4651 This work was sponsored by Google.
4652 [Steve Henson]
4653
4654 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
4655 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
4656 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4657 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
4658
4659 This work was sponsored by Google.
4660 [Steve Henson]
4661
4662 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
4663 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
4664 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
4665 CRL functionality in future.
4666
4667 This work was sponsored by Google.
4668 [Steve Henson]
4669
4670 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
4671
4672 This work was sponsored by Google.
4673 [Steve Henson]
4674
4675 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
4676 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
4677
4678 This work was sponsored by Google.
4679 [Steve Henson]
4680
4681 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
4682 and URI types are currently supported.
4683
4684 This work was sponsored by Google.
4685 [Steve Henson]
4686
4687 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
4688 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
4689 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
4690 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
4691 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
4692 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
4693 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
4694 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
4695
4696 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
4697 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
4698 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
4699
4700 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
4701 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
4702 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
4703 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
4704
4705 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
4706 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
4707 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
4708 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
4709 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4710 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4711 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4712 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4713 of &errno.)
4714 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4715
4716 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4717 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4718 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4719
4720 This work was sponsored by Google.
4721 [Steve Henson]
4722
4723 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4724 [Ben Laurie]
4725
4726 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4727 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4728 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4729 [Ben Laurie]
4730
4731 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4732 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4733 [Nick Mathewson]
4734
4735 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4736 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4737 [Ben Laurie]
4738
4739 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4740 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4741 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4742 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4743 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4744 content types and variants.
4745 [Steve Henson]
4746
4747 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4748 [Steve Henson]
4749
4750 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4751 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4752 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4753 files from the associated perl scripts.
4754 [Steve Henson]
4755
4756 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4757 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4758 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4759
4760 *) s390x assembler pack.
4761 [Andy Polyakov]
4762
4763 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4764 "family."
4765 [Andy Polyakov]
4766
4767 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4768 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4769 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4770 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4771 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4772 to use. For example, specify an option
4773
4774 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4775
4776 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4777 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4778 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4779 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4780 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4781 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4782
4783 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4784 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4785 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4786 return non-zero for success.
4787
4788 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4789 by using
4790
4791 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4792 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4793
4794 where
4795
4796 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4797 void *arg;
4798
4799 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4800 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4801 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4802 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4803 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4804 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4805 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4806 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4807 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4808
4809 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4810 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4811 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4812 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4813 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4814 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4815
4816 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4817 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4818 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4819 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4820 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4821 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4822
4823 [Bodo Moeller]
4824
4825 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4826 MAC.
4827
4828 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4829
4830 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4831 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4832 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4833 supported.
4834
4835 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4836 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4837 SSL_SESSION.
4838
4839 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4840 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4841 with no application modification.
4842
4843 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4844 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4845
4846 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4847 or server extensions to be examined.
4848
4849 This work was sponsored by Google.
4850 [Steve Henson]
4851
4852 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4853 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4854 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4855
4856 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4857 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4858 ciphersuite support.
4859 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4860
4861 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4862 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4863 to output in BER and PEM format.
4864 [Steve Henson]
4865
4866 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4867 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4868 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4869 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4870 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4871 [Steve Henson]
4872
4873 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4874 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4875 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4876 utility.
4877 [Steve Henson]
4878
4879 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4880 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4881 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4882 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4883 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4884 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4885 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4886 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4887 enabled again.
4888
4889 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4890 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4891 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4892 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4893
4894 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4895 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4896 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4897 the default order.
4898 [Bodo Moeller]
4899
4900 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4901 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4902 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4903 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4904 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4905 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4906 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4907 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4908 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4909
4910 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4911 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4912 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4913 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4914 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4915 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4916 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4917 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4918 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4919 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4920 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4921 kinds of kludges.
4922
4923 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4924 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4925 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4926
4927 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4928 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4929 "CAMELLIA256".
4930 [Bodo Moeller]
4931
4932 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4933 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4934 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4935 [Nils Larsch]
4936
4937 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4938 it yet and it is largely untested.
4939 [Steve Henson]
4940
4941 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4942 [Nils Larsch]
4943
4944 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4945 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4946 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4947 [Steve Henson]
4948
4949 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4950 [Andy Polyakov]
4951
4952 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4953 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4954 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4955 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4956 [Steve Henson]
4957
4958 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4959 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4960 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4961 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4962 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4963 [Steve Henson]
4964
4965 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4966 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4967 [Cryptocom]
4968
4969 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4970 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4971 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4972 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4973 [Steve Henson]
4974
4975 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4976 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4977 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4978 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4979 [Steve Henson]
4980
4981 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4982 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4983 [Steve Henson]
4984
4985 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4986 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4987 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4988 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4989 [Steve Henson]
4990
4991 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4992 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4993 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4994 [Steve Henson]
4995
4996 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4997 utility.
4998 [Steve Henson]
4999
5000 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
5001 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
5002 [Steve Henson]
5003
5004 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
5005 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
5006 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
5007 if necessary.
5008 [Steve Henson]
5009
5010 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
5011 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
5012 to free up any added signature OIDs.
5013 [Steve Henson]
5014
5015 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
5016 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
5017 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
5018 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
5019 [Steve Henson]
5020
5021 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
5022 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
5023 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
5024 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
5025 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
5026 the array representation useful in a more general context.
5027 [Douglas Stebila]
5028
5029 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
5030 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
5031 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
5032 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
5033 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
5034
5035 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
5036 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
5037 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
5038 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
5039 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
5040 protocol).
5041
5042 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
5043 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
5044 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
5045 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
5046
5047 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
5048 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
5049 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
5050 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
5051 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
5052
5053 aECDH - ECDH cert
5054 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
5055 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
5056
5057 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
5058 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
5059
5060 [Bodo Moeller]
5061
5062 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
5063 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
5064 [Steve Henson]
5065
5066 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
5067 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
5068 [Steve Henson]
5069
5070 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
5071 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
5072 functional reference processing.
5073 [Steve Henson]
5074
5075 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
5076 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
5077 process.
5078 [Steve Henson]
5079
5080 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
5081 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
5082 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
5083 [Steve Henson]
5084
5085 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
5086 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
5087 application to support multiple signers.
5088 [Steve Henson]
5089
5090 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
5091 digest MAC.
5092 [Steve Henson]
5093
5094 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
5095 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
5096 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
5097 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
5098 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
5099 [Steve Henson]
5100
5101 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
5102 new API.
5103 [Steve Henson]
5104
5105 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
5106 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
5107 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
5108 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
5109 a no op.
5110 [Steve Henson]
5111
5112 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
5113 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
5114 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
5115 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
5116 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
5117 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
5118 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
5119 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
5120 [Steve Henson]
5121
5122 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
5123 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
5124 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
5125 between digests and public key types.
5126 [Steve Henson]
5127
5128 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
5129 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
5130 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
5131 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
5132 [Steve Henson]
5133
5134 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
5135 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
5136 key ASN1 method.
5137 [Steve Henson]
5138
5139 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
5140 [Steve Henson]
5141
5142 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
5143 pkeyutl.
5144 [Steve Henson]
5145
5146 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
5147 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
5148 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
5149 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
5150 pkey, genpkey.
5151 [Steve Henson]
5152
5153 *) BeOS support.
5154 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
5155
5156 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
5157 manual pages.
5158 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
5159
5160 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
5161 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
5162 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
5163 functionality for RSA.
5164 [Steve Henson]
5165
5166 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
5167 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
5168 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
5169 [Steve Henson]
5170
5171 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
5172 key API, doesn't do much yet.
5173 [Steve Henson]
5174
5175 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
5176 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
5177 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
5178 [Steve Henson]
5179
5180 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
5181 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
5182 [Douglas Stebila]
5183
5184 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
5185 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
5186 [Steve Henson]
5187
5188 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
5189 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
5190 type.
5191 [Steve Henson]
5192
5193 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
5194 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
5195 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
5196 structure.
5197 [Steve Henson]
5198
5199 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
5200 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
5201 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
5202 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
5203 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
5204 of public and private key structures.
5205 [Steve Henson]
5206
5207 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
5208 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
5209 [Douglas Stebila]
5210
5211 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
5212 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
5213 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
5214
5215 New ciphersuites:
5216 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
5217 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
5218
5219 New functions:
5220 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
5221 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
5222 SSL_get_psk_identity
5223 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
5224
5225 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
5226
5227 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
5228 and response verification functionality.
5229 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
5230
5231 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5232 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5233 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5234 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5235 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5236 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5237 server_name extension.
5238
5239 New functions (subject to change):
5240
5241 SSL_get_servername()
5242 SSL_get_servername_type()
5243 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5244
5245 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5246
5247 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5248 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5249 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5250 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5251 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5252
5253 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5254
5255 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5256 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5257 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5258 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5259 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5260 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5261 option.
5262
5263 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
5264
5265 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
5266 [Andy Polyakov]
5267
5268 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
5269 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
5270 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
5271 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
5272 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
5273 [Andy Polyakov]
5274
5275 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
5276 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
5277 macro.
5278 [Bodo Moeller]
5279
5280 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
5281 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
5282 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
5283 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
5284 [Andy Polyakov]
5285
5286 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
5287 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
5288 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
5289 using the maximum available value.
5290 [Steve Henson]
5291
5292 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
5293 in addition to the text details.
5294 [Bodo Moeller]
5295
5296 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
5297 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
5298 handle several customised structures at all.
5299 [Steve Henson]
5300
5301 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
5302 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
5303 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
5304 [Steve Henson]
5305
5306 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
5307 [Steve Henson]
5308
5309 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
5310 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
5311 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
5312 [Steve Henson]
5313
5314 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
5315 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
5316 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
5317 [Nils Larsch]
5318
5319 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
5320 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
5321 all fields.
5322 [Steve Henson]
5323
5324 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
5325 [Steve Henson]
5326
5327 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
5328 [NTT]
5329
5330 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
5331
5332 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
5333 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
5334 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
5335 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
5336 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
5337 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
5338 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
5339 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
5340
5341 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
5342 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
5343 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
5344
5345 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
5346
5347 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
5348 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
5349
5350 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
5351 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
5352 [Bodo Moeller]
5353
5354 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
5355 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
5356 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
5357 [Steve Henson]
5358
5359 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
5360 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
5361 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
5362 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
5363 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
5364 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
5365 [Steve Henson]
5366
5367 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
5368 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
5369 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
5370 [Steve Henson]
5371
5372 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
5373 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
5374 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
5375 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
5376 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
5377 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
5378 CVE-2009-4355.
5379 [Steve Henson]
5380
5381 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
5382 change when encrypting or decrypting.
5383 [Bodo Moeller]
5384
5385 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
5386 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
5387 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
5388 [Steve Henson]
5389
5390 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
5391 [Steve Henson]
5392
5393 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
5394 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
5395 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
5396 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
5397 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
5398 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
5399 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
5400 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
5401 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
5402 [Steve Henson]
5403
5404 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
5405 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
5406 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
5407 [Steve Henson]
5408
5409 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
5410 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
5413 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
5414 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
5415 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
5416 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
5417 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
5418 know what you are doing.
5419 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
5420
5421 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
5422 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
5423 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
5424 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
5425 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
5426 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
5427 the handshake.
5428 [Steve Henson]
5429
5430 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
5431 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
5432 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
5433 correctly.
5434 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
5435
5436 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
5437 warnings in other configurations.
5438 [Steve Henson]
5439
5440 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
5441 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
5442 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
5443 systems need.
5444 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
5445
5446 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
5447 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
5448 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
5449
5450 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
5451 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
5452 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
5453 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
5454 [Steve Henson]
5455
5456 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
5457 and restored.
5458 [Steve Henson]
5459
5460 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
5461 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
5462 clash.
5463 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
5464
5465 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
5466 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
5467 other than a simple chain.
5468 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
5469
5470 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
5471 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
5472 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
5473 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
5474 [Steve Henson]
5475
5476 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
5477 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
5478 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
5479 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
5480 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
5481 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
5482 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
5483 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
5484 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5485
5486 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
5487 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
5488 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
5489 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
5490 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
5491 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
5492 (CVE-2009-1377)
5493 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5494
5495 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
5496 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
5497 [Daniel Mentz]
5498
5499 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
5500 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
5501
5502 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
5503 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
5504
5505 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
5506
5507 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
5508 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
5509 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
5510 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
5511 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
5512 you're doing.
5513 [Ben Laurie]
5514
5515 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
5516
5517 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
5518 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
5519 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
5520 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
5521
5522 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
5523 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
5524 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
5525 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5526
5527 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
5528 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
5529 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
5530 [Steve Henson]
5531
5532 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
5533 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
5534 level.
5535 [Steve Henson]
5536
5537 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
5538 to handle some structures.
5539 [Steve Henson]
5540
5541 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
5542 for a '\n'
5543 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
5544
5545 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
5546 [Matthieu Herrb]
5547
5548 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
5549 [Steve Henson]
5550
5551 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
5552 [Steve Henson]
5553
5554 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
5555 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
5556 chosen compiler.
5557 [Ben Laurie]
5558
5559 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
5560
5561 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
5562 (CVE-2008-5077).
5563 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
5564
5565 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
5566 [Ben Laurie]
5567
5568 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
5569 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
5570 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
5571 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
5572
5573 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
5574 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
5575
5576 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
5577 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
5578 [Bodo Moeller]
5579
5580 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
5581 s_client and s_server.
5582 [Ben Laurie]
5583
5584 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
5585 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
5586
5587 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
5588 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
5589
5590 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
5591 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
5592 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
5593 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
5594 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
5595 [Bodo Moeller]
5596
5597 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
5598
5599 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
5600 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
5601 [PR #1679]
5602
5603 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
5604 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
5605 [Nagendra Modadugu]
5606
5607 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
5608 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
5609 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
5610 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
5611
5612 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
5613 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
5614
5615 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
5616
5617 *) Various precautionary measures:
5618
5619 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
5620
5621 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
5622 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
5623 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
5624
5625 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
5626 outside the expected range.
5627
5628 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
5629 builds.
5630
5631 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
5632
5633 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
5634 the load fails. Useful for distros.
5635 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
5636
5637 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
5638 [Steve Henson]
5639
5640 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
5641 [Huang Ying]
5642
5643 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
5644
5645 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5646 [Steve Henson]
5647
5648 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
5649 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
5650 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
5651
5652 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5653 [Steve Henson]
5654
5655 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
5656 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
5657 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
5658 files.
5659 [Steve Henson]
5660
5661 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
5662
5663 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
5664 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
5665 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
5666 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
5667
5668 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
5669 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
5670 [Joe Orton]
5671
5672 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
5673
5674 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
5675 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
5676 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
5677
5678 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
5679
5680 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
5681 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
5682 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
5683 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
5684 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5685
5686 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
5687 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
5688 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
5689 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
5690 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
5691 invalid read after the end of 'db').
5692 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5693
5694 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
5695
5696 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
5697 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
5698 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
5699 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
5700 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
5701
5702 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
5703 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
5704
5705 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
5706 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
5707 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
5708 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
5709 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5710
5711 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5712
5713 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5714 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5715 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5716 sets may exist with different names.
5717 [Steve Henson]
5718
5719 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5720 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5721 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5722 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5723 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5724 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5725 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5726 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5727 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5728 implementation.
5729 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5730
5731 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5732 implementation in the following ways:
5733
5734 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5735 hard coded.
5736
5737 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5738 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5739 ignored for embedded content.
5740
5741 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5742 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5743 [Steve Henson]
5744
5745 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5746 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5747 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5748 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5749
5750 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5751 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5752 [Steve Henson]
5753
5754 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5755 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5756 [Steve Henson]
5757
5758 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5759 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5760 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5761 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5762 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5763 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5764 data.
5765 [Steve Henson]
5766
5767 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5768 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5769 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5770
5771 *) Netware support:
5772
5773 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5774 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5775 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5776 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5777 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5778 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5779 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5780 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5781 platform
5782 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5783 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5784 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5785 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5786 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5787 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5788 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5789
5790 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5791 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5792 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5793 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5794 to s_client and s_server.
5795 [Steve Henson]
5796
5797 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5798
5799 *) Fix various bugs:
5800 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5801 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5802 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5803 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5804 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5805
5806 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5807
5808 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5809 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5810 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5811 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5812 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5813 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5814 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5815 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5816 [Andy Polyakov]
5817
5818 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5819 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5820 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5821 Steve Henson]
5822
5823 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5824 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5825 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5826 supported.
5827
5828 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5829 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5830 SSL_SESSION.
5831
5832 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5833 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5834 with no application modification.
5835
5836 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5837 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5838
5839 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5840 or server extensions to be examined.
5841
5842 This work was sponsored by Google.
5843 [Steve Henson]
5844
5845 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5846 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5847 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5848 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5849 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5850 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5851 server_name extension.
5852
5853 New functions (subject to change):
5854
5855 SSL_get_servername()
5856 SSL_get_servername_type()
5857 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5858
5859 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5860
5861 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5862 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5863 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5864 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5865 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5866
5867 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5868
5869 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5870 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5871 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5872 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5873 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5874 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5875 option.
5876
5877 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5878
5879 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5880 [Steve Henson]
5881
5882 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5883 [Andy Polyakov]
5884
5885 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5886 (which previously caused an internal error).
5887 [Bodo Moeller]
5888
5889 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5890 [Ben Laurie]
5891
5892 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5893 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5894
5895 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5896 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5897 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5898
5899 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5900 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5901 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5902 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5903
5904 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5905 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5906 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5907 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5908
5909 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5910 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5911 information. For detailed background information, see
5912 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5913 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5914 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5915 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5916 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5917 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5918 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5919 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5920 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5921 remove a conditional branch.
5922
5923 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5924 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5925 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5926 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5927 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5928 remains as a deprecated alias.
5929
5930 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5931 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5932 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5933 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5934
5935 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5936 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5937 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5938 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5939 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5940 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5941 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5942 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5943
5944 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5945
5946 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5947 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5948 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5949 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5950 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5951 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5952 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5953 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5954 in a different context.
5955 [Bodo Moeller]
5956
5957 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5958 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5959 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5960 [Bodo Moeller]
5961
5962 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5963 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5964 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5965
5966 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5967
5968 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5969 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5970 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5971 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5972 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5973 [Victor Duchovni]
5974
5975 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5976 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5977 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5978 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5979 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5980 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5981 [Bodo Moeller]
5982
5983 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5984 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5985 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5986 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5987 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5988 [Bodo Moeller]
5989
5990 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5991 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5992
5993 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5994 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5995 Improve header file function name parsing.
5996 [Steve Henson]
5997
5998 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5999 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
6000 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
6001
6002 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
6003
6004 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6005 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6006 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6007
6008 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
6009 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
6010
6011 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
6012 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6013
6014 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
6015 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
6016 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6017
6018 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
6019 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
6020 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
6021 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
6022 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
6023 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
6024 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
6025 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
6026 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
6027
6028 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
6029 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
6030 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
6031 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
6032 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
6033
6034 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
6035 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
6036 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
6037 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
6038 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
6039 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
6040 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
6041 multiple values to extend the available space.
6042
6043 [Bodo Moeller]
6044
6045 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
6046
6047 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
6048 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
6049
6050 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
6051 [Ben Laurie]
6052
6053 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6054 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6055 undesirable limitations.
6056 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6057
6058 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
6059 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
6060 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
6061 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
6062 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
6063 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
6064 to avoid potential handshake problems.
6065 [Bodo Moeller]
6066
6067 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6068
6069 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6070 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6071 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6072
6073 The latter two were purportedly from
6074 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6075 appear there.
6076
6077 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6078 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6079 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6080 [Bodo Moeller]
6081
6082 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6083 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6084 [Bodo Moeller]
6085
6086 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
6087 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
6088 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
6089 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
6090
6091 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
6092 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
6093 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
6094 [NTT]
6095
6096 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
6097 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
6098 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
6099 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
6100 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
6101 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
6102 [Steve Henson]
6103
6104 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
6105
6106 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
6107 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
6108 [Steve Henson]
6109
6110 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
6111 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
6112
6113 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
6114 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
6115 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
6116 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
6117 [Douglas Stebila]
6118
6119 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
6120 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
6121 [Steve Henson]
6122
6123 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
6124 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
6125 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
6126 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
6127 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
6128 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
6129 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
6130 can't be loaded.
6131 [Steve Henson]
6132
6133 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
6134 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
6135 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
6136 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
6137 [Steve Henson]
6138
6139 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
6140 under VC++ build system.
6141 [Steve Henson]
6142
6143 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
6144 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
6145 [Richard Levitte]
6146
6147 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
6148
6149 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6150 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6151 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6152 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6153 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6154
6155 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6156 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6157 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6158
6159 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
6160 [Steve Henson]
6161
6162 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
6163 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
6164 [Nils Larsch]
6165
6166 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
6167 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
6168
6169 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
6170 [Nick Mathewson]
6171
6172 *) Extended Windows CE support.
6173 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
6174
6175 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
6176 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
6177 [Steve Henson]
6178
6179 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
6180 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
6181 smime utility.
6182 [Steve Henson]
6183
6184 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
6185
6186 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6187 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6188
6189 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
6190 [Richard Levitte]
6191
6192 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
6193 key into the same file any more.
6194 [Richard Levitte]
6195
6196 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
6197 [Andy Polyakov]
6198
6199 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
6200 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
6201
6202 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
6203 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
6204 [Richard Levitte]
6205
6206 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
6207 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
6208 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
6209 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
6210 this only applies when building 'shared'.
6211 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
6212
6213 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
6214 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
6215 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
6216 [Steve Henson]
6217
6218 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
6219 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
6220 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
6221 - add new function for parameter creation
6222 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
6223 BN_BLINDING parameters
6224 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
6225 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
6226 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
6227 threads.
6228 [Nils Larsch]
6229
6230 *) Add support for DTLS.
6231 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
6232
6233 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
6234 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
6235 [Walter Goulet]
6236
6237 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
6238 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
6239 [Nils Larsch]
6240
6241 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
6242 the apps/openssl applications.
6243 [Nils Larsch]
6244
6245 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
6246 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
6247 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
6248 [Ben Laurie]
6249
6250 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
6251 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
6252
6253 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
6254 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
6255
6256 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
6257 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
6258 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
6259 avoid this algorithm.)
6260
6261 [Bodo Moeller]
6262
6263 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
6264 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
6265 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
6266 [Richard Levitte]
6267
6268 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
6269 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
6270 [Andy Polyakov]
6271
6272 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
6273 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
6274 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
6275 pod file:
6276
6277 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
6278
6279 The blank line is mandatory.
6280
6281 [Steve Henson]
6282
6283 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
6284 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
6285 sources.
6286 [Steve Henson]
6287
6288 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
6289 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
6290
6291 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
6292 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
6293 to support policy checking and print out.
6294 [Steve Henson]
6295
6296 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
6297 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
6298 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
6299 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
6300
6301 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
6302 [Geoff Thorpe]
6303
6304 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
6305 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
6306
6307 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
6308 implementation contributed by IBM.
6309 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
6310
6311 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
6312 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
6313 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
6314 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
6315
6316 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
6317 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
6318
6319 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
6320 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
6321 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
6322 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
6323 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
6324 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
6325 [Steve Henson]
6326
6327 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
6328 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
6329 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
6330 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
6331 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
6332 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
6333 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
6334 [Geoff Thorpe]
6335
6336 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
6337 [Steve Henson]
6338
6339 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
6340 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
6341 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
6342 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
6343 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
6344 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
6345 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
6346 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
6347 [Steve Henson]
6348
6349 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
6350 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
6351 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
6352 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
6353 [Steve Henson]
6354
6355 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
6356 syntax:
6357
6358 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
6359 [Steve Henson]
6360
6361 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
6362 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
6363 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
6364 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
6365 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
6366 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
6367 BN_CTX's "bundling".
6368 [Geoff Thorpe]
6369
6370 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
6371 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
6372 [Geoff Thorpe]
6373
6374 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
6375 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
6376 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
6377 [Steve Henson]
6378
6379 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
6380 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
6381 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
6382 below).
6383 [Geoff Thorpe]
6384
6385 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
6386 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
6387 [Richard Levitte]
6388
6389 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
6390 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
6391 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
6392 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
6393 [Geoff Thorpe]
6394
6395 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
6396 initialised value as BN_new().
6397 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
6398
6399 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
6400 [Steve Henson]
6401
6402 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
6403 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
6404 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
6405 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
6406 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
6407 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
6408 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
6409 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
6410 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
6411 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
6412 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
6413 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
6414 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
6415 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
6416 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
6417
6418 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
6419 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
6420 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
6421 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
6422 [Geoff Thorpe]
6423
6424 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
6425 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
6426 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
6427 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
6428 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
6429 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
6430 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
6431 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
6432 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
6433 [Geoff Thorpe]
6434
6435 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
6436 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
6437 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
6438 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
6439 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
6440 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
6441 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
6442 [Geoff Thorpe]
6443
6444 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
6445 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
6446 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
6447 these have been updated also.
6448 [Geoff Thorpe]
6449
6450 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
6451 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
6452 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
6453 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
6454 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
6455 functions.
6456 [Steve Henson]
6457
6458 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
6459 structure of type "other".
6460 [Steve Henson]
6461
6462 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
6463 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
6464 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
6465 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
6466 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
6467 situation in the script.
6468 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6469
6470 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
6471 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
6472 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
6473 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
6474 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
6475 used as premaster secret.
6476 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6477
6478 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
6479 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
6480 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6481
6482 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
6483 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
6484
6485 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
6486 control of the error stack.
6487 [Richard Levitte]
6488
6489 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
6490 [Richard Levitte]
6491
6492 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
6493 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
6494 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
6495 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
6496 [Richard Levitte]
6497
6498 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
6499 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
6500 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
6501 [Richard Levitte]
6502
6503 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
6504 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
6505 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
6506 a memory area.
6507 [Richard Levitte]
6508
6509 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
6510 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
6511 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
6512 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
6513 [Richard Levitte]
6514
6515 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
6516 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
6517 the following flags are defined:
6518
6519 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
6520 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6521 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
6522 number.
6523
6524 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
6525 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6526 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
6527 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
6528 returns zero.
6529 [Richard Levitte]
6530
6531 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
6532 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
6533 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
6534 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
6535 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
6536 [Richard Levitte]
6537
6538 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
6539 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
6540 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
6541 [Richard Levitte]
6542
6543 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6544 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6545 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6546 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6547 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6548 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6549 [Richard Levitte]
6550
6551 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
6552 req and dirName.
6553 [Steve Henson]
6554
6555 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
6556 [Steve Henson]
6557
6558 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
6559 [Steve Henson]
6560
6561 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
6562 [Steve Henson]
6563
6564 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
6565 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
6566 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
6567 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
6568 default implementation more easily.
6569 [Geoff Thorpe]
6570
6571 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
6572 in config files.
6573 [Steve Henson]
6574
6575 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
6576 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
6577 [Richard Levitte]
6578
6579 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
6580 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
6581 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
6582 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
6583
6584 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
6585 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
6586 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
6587 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
6588 [Steve Henson]
6589
6590 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
6591 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
6592 to do it.
6593 [Richard Levitte]
6594
6595 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
6596 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
6597 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
6598 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
6599 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
6600 scalar * generator).
6601 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
6602
6603 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
6604 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
6605 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
6606 correctly.
6607 [Steve Henson]
6608
6609 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
6610 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
6611 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
6612 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
6613 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
6614 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
6615 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
6616 linker additions, eg;
6617 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
6618 [Geoff Thorpe]
6619
6620 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
6621 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
6622 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
6623 [Geoff Thorpe]
6624
6625 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6626 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6627 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
6628 via PR#459)
6629 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6630
6631 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
6632 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
6633 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
6634 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
6635 [Geoff Thorpe]
6636
6637 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
6638 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
6639 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
6640 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
6641 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
6642 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
6643 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
6644 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
6645 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
6646 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
6647
6648 Example for using the new callback interface:
6649
6650 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
6651 void *my_arg = ...;
6652 BN_GENCB my_cb;
6653
6654 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
6655
6656 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
6657 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
6658 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
6659 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
6660 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
6661 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
6662 */
6663
6664 [Geoff Thorpe]
6665
6666 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
6667 available to TLS with the number defined in
6668 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
6669 [Richard Levitte]
6670
6671 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
6672 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
6673
6674 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
6675 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6676 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6677 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
6678
6679 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
6680 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
6681
6682 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
6683 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
6684 well.
6685 [Richard Levitte]
6686
6687 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
6688 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
6689 [Richard Levitte]
6690
6691 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
6692 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
6693 and a macro that behave like
6694 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
6695
6696 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
6697 [Nils Larsch]
6698
6699 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
6700 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
6701 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
6702 if applicable.
6703 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6704
6705 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
6706 [Bodo Moeller]
6707
6708 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
6709 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6710 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6711 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6712 directory engines/.
6713 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6714 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6715 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6716 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6717 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6718 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6719 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6720 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6721
6722 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6723 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6724 [Richard Levitte]
6725
6726 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6727 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6728
6729 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6730 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6731 files while avoiding the low level API.
6732
6733 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6734 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6735 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6736 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6737
6738 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6739 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6740 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6741 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6742 instead of the low level API.
6743 [Steve Henson]
6744
6745 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6746 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6747 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6748 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6749 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6750 PKCS#7 code.
6751
6752 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6753 down to the template encoder.
6754 [Steve Henson]
6755
6756 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6757 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6758 [Bodo Moeller]
6759
6760 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6761 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6762 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6763 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6764
6765 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6766 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6767
6768 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6769 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6770
6771 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6772 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6773 [Bodo Moeller]
6774
6775 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6776 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6777 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6778 [Bodo Moeller]
6779
6780 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6781 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6782
6783 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6784 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6785
6786 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6787 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6788 New EC_METHOD:
6789
6790 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6791
6792 New API functions:
6793
6794 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6795 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6796 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6797 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6798 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6799 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6800
6801 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6802 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6803 enable it).
6804
6805 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6806 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6807 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6808 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6809 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6810 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6811 various internal method names.)
6812
6813 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6814 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6815
6816 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6817 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6818
6819 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6820 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6821
6822 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6823 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6824 methods are undefined.
6825
6826 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6827 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6828
6829 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6830 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6831 length of the modulus.
6832
6833 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6834 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6835
6836 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6837 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6838
6839 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6840 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6841
6842 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6843 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6844 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6845
6846 BN_GF2m_add
6847 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
6848 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
6849 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
6850 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
6851 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
6852 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
6853 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
6854 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
6855 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
6856
6857 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6858 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6859
6860 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6861 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6862 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6863 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6864 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6865 where
6866 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6867 This applies to the following functions:
6868
6869 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6870 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6871 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6872 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6873 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6874 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6875 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6876 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6877 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6878 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6879
6880 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6881
6882 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6883 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6884
6885 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6886
6887 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6888 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6889 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6890 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6891 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6892
6893 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6894 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6895
6896 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6897 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6898 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6899
6900 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6901 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6902
6903 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6904 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6905 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6906 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6907 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6908
6909 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6910 functions
6911 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6912 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6913 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6914 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6915 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6916 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6917 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6918 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6919 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6920 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6921 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6922 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6923
6924 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6925 functions
6926 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6927 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6928 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6929 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6930 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6931
6932 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6933 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6934 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6935 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6936
6937 *) Add functions
6938 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6939 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6940 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6941 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6942 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6943 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6944 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6945
6946 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6947 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6948 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6949 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6950 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6951 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6952 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6953 adding different types of curves.
6954 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6955
6956 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6957 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6958 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6959 [Bodo Moeller]
6960
6961 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6962 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6963
6964 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6965 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6966 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6967 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6968
6969 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6970
6971 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6972 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6973
6974 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6975 library. Most notably,
6976 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6977 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6978 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6979 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6980 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6981 extracted before the specific public key;
6982 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6983 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6984
6985 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6986 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6987 function
6988 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6989 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6990 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6991 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6992 accessed via
6993 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6994 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6995 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6996
6997 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6998 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6999 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
7000 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
7001 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
7002 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
7003 differing sizes.
7004 [Richard Levitte]
7005
7006 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
7007
7008 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
7009 sensitive data.
7010 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
7011
7012 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
7013 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
7014 authentication-only ciphersuites.
7015 [Bodo Moeller]
7016
7017 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
7018 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
7019 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
7020 [Victor Duchovni]
7021
7022 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
7023 [Steve Henson]
7024
7025 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
7026 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
7027 [Steve Henson]
7028
7029 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
7030 run algorithm test programs.
7031 [Steve Henson]
7032
7033 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
7034 [Steve Henson]
7035
7036 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
7037 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
7038 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
7039 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
7040 message has informed the client about his choice.)
7041 [Bodo Moeller]
7042
7043 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
7044 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
7045 [Steve Henson]
7046
7047 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
7048
7049 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
7050 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
7051 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
7052
7053 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
7054 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
7055
7056 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
7057 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
7058
7059 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
7060 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
7061 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
7062
7063 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
7064 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
7065 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
7066 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
7067 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
7068 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
7069 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
7070 [Bodo Moeller]
7071
7072 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
7073
7074 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
7075 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
7076
7077 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
7078 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
7079 undesirable limitations.
7080 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
7081
7082 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
7083
7084 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
7085 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
7086 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
7087
7088 The latter two were purportedly from
7089 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
7090 appear there.
7091
7092 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
7093 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
7094 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
7095 [Bodo Moeller]
7096
7097 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
7098 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
7099 [Bodo Moeller]
7100
7101 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
7102
7103 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
7104 module in FIPS mode.
7105 [Steve Henson]
7106
7107 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
7108 [Steve Henson]
7109
7110 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
7111 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
7112 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
7113 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
7114 [Steve Henson]
7115
7116 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
7117
7118 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
7119 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
7120 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
7121 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
7122 the difference induced by this change.
7123 [Andy Polyakov]
7124
7125 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
7126
7127 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
7128 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
7129 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
7130 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
7131 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
7132
7133 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
7134 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
7135 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
7136
7137 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
7138 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
7139 [Steve Henson]
7140
7141 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
7142 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
7143 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
7144 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
7145 biased k.)
7146 [Bodo Moeller]
7147
7148 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
7149 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
7150 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
7151 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
7152 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
7153
7154 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
7155 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
7156 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
7157 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
7158 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
7159 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
7160
7161 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
7162
7163 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
7164 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
7165 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
7166 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
7167 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
7168 [Bodo Moeller]
7169
7170 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
7171 clients need.
7172 [Steve Henson]
7173
7174 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
7175 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
7176 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
7177 [Steve Henson]
7178
7179 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
7180 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
7181 structures constant.
7182 [Steve Henson]
7183
7184 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
7185
7186 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
7187 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
7188
7189 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
7190 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
7191 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
7192 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
7193 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
7194 some needed definitions.
7195 [Steve Henson]
7196
7197 *) Undo Cygwin change.
7198 [Ulf Möller]
7199
7200 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
7201 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
7202 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
7203 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
7204 [Richard Levitte]
7205
7206 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
7207
7208 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
7209 server and client random values. Previously
7210 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
7211 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
7212
7213 This change has negligible security impact because:
7214
7215 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
7216 data.
7217
7218 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
7219 handshake.
7220
7221 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
7222 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
7223 values.
7224
7225 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
7226 to our attention.
7227
7228 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
7229
7230 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
7231 [Ulf Möller]
7232
7233 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
7234 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
7235 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
7236
7237 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
7238 [Steve Henson]
7239
7240 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
7241 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
7242 [Andy Polyakov]
7243
7244 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
7245 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
7246 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
7247
7248 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
7249 [Steve Henson]
7250
7251 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
7252 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
7253 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
7254 certificates.
7255 [Steve Henson]
7256
7257 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
7258 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
7259 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
7260 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
7261
7262 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
7263 has chosen to ignore this fault)
7264 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
7265 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
7266 been given)
7267 [Richard Levitte]
7268
7269 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
7270
7271 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
7272 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
7273 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
7274 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
7275 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
7276 [Steve Henson]
7277
7278 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
7279 [Steve Henson]
7280
7281 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
7282 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
7283
7284 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
7285 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
7286 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
7287 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
7288 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
7289 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
7290 rather than being initialized to 1.
7291 [Steve Henson]
7292
7293 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
7294
7295 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
7296 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
7297 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
7298
7299 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
7300 (CVE-2004-0112)
7301 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
7302
7303 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
7304 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
7305 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
7306 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
7307 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
7308 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
7309 [Richard Levitte]
7310
7311 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
7312 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
7313 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
7314 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
7315 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
7316 for these cases.
7317 [Steve Henson]
7318
7319 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
7320 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
7321 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
7322 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
7323 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
7324 [Steve Henson]
7325
7326 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
7327 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
7328 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
7329 < 0.9.7.
7330 [Steve Henson]
7331
7332 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
7333 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7334
7335 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
7336 [Steve Henson]
7337
7338 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
7339
7340 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
7341
7342 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
7343 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
7344
7345 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
7346
7347 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
7348 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
7349
7350 [Steve Henson]
7351
7352 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
7353 exiting on the first error in a request.
7354 [Steve Henson]
7355
7356 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
7357 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
7358 specifications.
7359 [Steve Henson]
7360
7361 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
7362 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
7363 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
7364 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
7365
7366 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
7367 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
7368 [Richard Levitte]
7369
7370 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
7371 blocks during encryption.
7372 [Richard Levitte]
7373
7374 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
7375 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
7376 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
7377 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
7378 certain size.
7379 [Steve Henson]
7380
7381 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
7382 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
7383 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
7384 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
7385 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
7386 parser.
7387 [Steve Henson]
7388
7389 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
7390
7391 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
7392 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
7393 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
7394 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
7395 [Bodo Moeller]
7396
7397 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
7398 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
7399 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
7400 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
7401 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7402
7403 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
7404 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
7405 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
7406 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
7407 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
7408 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
7409 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
7410 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
7411 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
7412 [Bodo Moeller]
7413
7414 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
7415 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
7416 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
7417 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
7418 [Geoff Thorpe]
7419
7420 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
7421 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
7422 [Ulf Moeller]
7423
7424 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
7425
7426 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
7427 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
7428 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
7429 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
7430 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
7431
7432 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
7433 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
7434 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
7435
7436 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
7437 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
7438 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
7439 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
7440 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
7441
7442 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
7443 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
7444 used by default when no-err is given.
7445 [Richard Levitte]
7446
7447 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
7448 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
7449
7450 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
7451 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
7452 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
7453 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
7454 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
7455
7456 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
7457 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
7458 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
7459 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
7460
7461 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
7462
7463 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
7464
7465 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
7466
7467 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
7468 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
7469 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
7470 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
7471 root is omitted).
7472 [Steve Henson]
7473
7474 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
7475 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7476
7477 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
7478 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
7479 [Steve Henson]
7480
7481 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
7482 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
7483 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
7484 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
7485 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7486
7487 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
7488 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
7489 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
7490 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
7491 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
7492 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7493 followup to PR #377.
7494 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7495
7496 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
7497 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
7498 [Andy Polyakov]
7499
7500 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
7501 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
7502 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
7503 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
7504
7505 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
7506
7507 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
7508 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
7509
7510 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
7511 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
7512 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
7513 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
7514 client and server.
7515 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7516 PR #377.
7517 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7518
7519 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
7520 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
7521 removed entirely.
7522 [Richard Levitte]
7523
7524 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
7525 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
7526 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
7527 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
7528 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
7529 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
7530 of libcrypto.
7531 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
7532 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
7533 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
7534 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
7535 have to be made anyway).
7536 [Richard Levitte]
7537
7538 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
7539 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
7540 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
7541 [Steve Henson]
7542
7543 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
7544 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
7545 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
7546 [Richard Levitte]
7547
7548 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
7549 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
7550 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7551
7552 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
7553 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
7554 edit numbers of the version.
7555 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7556
7557 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
7558 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
7559 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
7560
7561 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
7562 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7563
7564 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7565 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7566 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7567
7568 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
7569 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7570
7571 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
7572 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7573
7574 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
7575 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7576
7577 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
7578 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7579
7580 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
7581 overflows.
7582 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7583
7584 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
7585 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
7586 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7587
7588 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
7589 representations in a platform independent manner.
7590 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7591
7592 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7593 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7594 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7595
7596 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
7597 indents.
7598 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7599
7600 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
7601 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7602
7603 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
7604 full. Fixed.
7605 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7606
7607 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
7608 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
7609 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7610
7611 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
7612 unconditionally).
7613 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7614
7615 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
7616 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7617
7618 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
7619 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7620
7621 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
7622 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7623
7624 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
7625 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7626
7627 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
7628 CBCParameter.
7629 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7630
7631 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
7632 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7633
7634 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
7635 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7636
7637 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
7638 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
7639 exploitable.
7640 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7641
7642 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
7643 the 0.9.6 release series:
7644
7645 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7646 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
7647 (CVE-2002-0657)
7648 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7649
7650 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
7651 [Richard Levitte]
7652
7653 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
7654 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
7655
7656 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
7657 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
7658
7659 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
7660 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
7661 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
7662 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
7663
7664 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
7665 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
7666 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
7667
7668 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
7669 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
7670 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
7671 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7672
7673 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
7674 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
7675 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
7676 some local tweaks:
7677
7678 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
7679 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
7680 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
7681 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7682 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7683 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
7684 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
7685 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
7686 done
7687
7688 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
7689 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
7690 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
7691 [Richard Levitte]
7692
7693 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
7694 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
7695 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
7696 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
7697 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
7698
7699 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
7700 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
7701
7702 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
7703 error in AES-CFB decryption.
7704 [Richard Levitte]
7705
7706 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
7707 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
7708 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
7709 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7710 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7711 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7712 [Steve Henson]
7713
7714 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7715 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7716 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7717 [Steve Henson]
7718
7719 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7720 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7721 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7722
7723 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7724 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7725 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7726 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7727 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7728 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7729 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7730 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7731
7732 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7733 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7734 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7735 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7736 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7737 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7738 [Steve Henson]
7739
7740 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7741 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7742 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7743 declaration has been changed from
7744 int (*cb)()
7745 into
7746 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7747 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7748 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7749 has been changed into
7750 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7751
7752 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7753 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
7754 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
7755
7756 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7757 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7758
7759 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7760 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7761 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7762 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7763 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7764 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7765 always load it have also been added.
7766 [Steve Henson]
7767
7768 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7769 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7770 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7771
7772 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7773
7774 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7775 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7776 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7777
7778 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7779 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7780 command line option can be used to specify an
7781 alternative file.
7782 [Steve Henson]
7783
7784 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7785 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7786 [Steve Henson]
7787
7788 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7789 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7790 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7791 [Steve Henson]
7792
7793 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7794 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7795 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7796 to work with the new engine framework.
7797 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7798
7799 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7800 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7801 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7802 to work with the new engine framework.
7803 [Richard Levitte]
7804
7805 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7806 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7807 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7808
7809 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7810 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7811
7812 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7813 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7814 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7815 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7816 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7817 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7818
7819 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7820 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7821
7822 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7823 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7824
7825 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7826 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7827 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7828 [Ben Laurie]
7829
7830 *) Add new functions
7831 ERR_peek_last_error
7832 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7833 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7834 These are similar to
7835 ERR_peek_error
7836 ERR_peek_error_line
7837 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7838 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7839 still in the error queue.
7840 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7841
7842 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7843 like:
7844 default_algorithms = ALL
7845 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7846 [Steve Henson]
7847
7848 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7849 [Steve Henson]
7850
7851 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7852 [Steve Henson]
7853
7854 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7855 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7856 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7857 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7858
7859 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7860 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7861
7862 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7863 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7864
7865 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7866 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7867 [Bodo Moeller]
7868
7869 *) New functions/macros
7870
7871 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7872 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7873 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7874 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7875
7876 to request calling a callback function
7877
7878 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7879 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7880
7881 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7882 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7883 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7884 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7885 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7886 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7887 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7888 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7889 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7890 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7891
7892 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7893 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7894 [Bodo Moeller]
7895
7896 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7897 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7898 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7899 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7900 the configuration scripts.
7901
7902 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7903 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7904 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7905
7906 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7907 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7908
7909 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7910 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7911 when reusing an existing buffer.
7912 [Bodo Moeller]
7913
7914 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7915 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7916 [Steve Henson]
7917
7918 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7919 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7920 [Ben Laurie]
7921
7922 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7923 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7924 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7925 has the same effect.
7926 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7927
7928 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7929 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7930 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7931 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7932 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7933 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7934 exception.
7935
7936 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7937 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7938 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7939 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7940
7941 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7942 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7943 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7944 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7945
7946 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7947 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7948 won't work.
7949
7950 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7951 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7952 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7953 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7954 default), and then completely removed.
7955 [Richard Levitte]
7956
7957 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7958 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7959 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7960 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7961 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7962 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7963 particular extension is supported.
7964 [Steve Henson]
7965
7966 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7967 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7968 [Steve Henson]
7969
7970 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7971 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7972 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7973 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7974 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7975 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7976 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7977 requires the destination to be valid.
7978
7979 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7980 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7981 [Steve Henson]
7982
7983 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7984 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7985 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7986 [Bodo Moeller]
7987
7988 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7989 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7990
7991 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7992 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7993 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7994 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7995 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7996 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7997 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7998 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7999 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
8000 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
8001 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
8002 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
8003 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
8004 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
8005 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
8006 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
8007 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
8008 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
8009 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
8010 the new code.
8011 [Geoff Thorpe]
8012
8013 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
8014 [Steve Henson]
8015
8016 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
8017 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
8018 become part of libeay.num as well.
8019 [Richard Levitte]
8020
8021 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
8022 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
8023 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
8024 false once a handshake has been completed.
8025 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
8026 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
8027 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
8028 client has followed the request.)
8029 [Bodo Moeller]
8030
8031 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
8032 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
8033 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
8034 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
8035
8036 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
8037 more bits available for options that should not be part of
8038 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
8039 [Bodo Moeller]
8040
8041 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
8042 [Steve Henson]
8043
8044 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
8045 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
8046 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
8047 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8048
8049 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
8050 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
8051 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8052
8053 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
8054 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
8055 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
8056 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
8057 [Geoff Thorpe]
8058
8059 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
8060 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
8061 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
8062 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
8063 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
8064 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
8065 [Geoff Thorpe]
8066
8067 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
8068 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
8069 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
8070 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
8071 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
8072 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
8073 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
8074 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
8075 [Geoff Thorpe]
8076
8077 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
8078 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
8079 [Geoff Thorpe]
8080
8081 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
8082 [Ben Laurie]
8083
8084 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
8085 md_data void pointer.
8086 [Ben Laurie]
8087
8088 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
8089 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
8090 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
8091 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
8092 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
8093 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
8094 [Ben Laurie]
8095
8096 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
8097 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
8098 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
8099 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
8100 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
8101 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
8102 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
8103 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
8104 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
8105 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
8106 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
8107 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
8108 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
8109 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
8110 rather than letting it slide.
8111
8112 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
8113 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
8114 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
8115 [Geoff Thorpe]
8116
8117 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
8118 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
8119 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
8120 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
8121 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
8122 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
8123 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
8124 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
8125 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
8126 [Geoff Thorpe]
8127
8128 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
8129 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
8130 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
8131 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
8132 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
8133
8134 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
8135 [Geoff Thorpe]
8136
8137 *) Add EVP test program.
8138 [Ben Laurie]
8139
8140 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
8141 [Ben Laurie]
8142
8143 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
8144 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
8145 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
8146 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
8147 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
8148 [Steve Henson]
8149
8150 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
8151 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
8152 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
8153 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
8154 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
8155 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
8156 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
8157
8158 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
8159 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
8160 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
8161 Usage example:
8162
8163 EVP_MD_CTX md;
8164
8165 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
8166 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
8167 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
8168 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
8169 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
8170
8171 [Ben Laurie]
8172
8173 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
8174 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
8175 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
8176 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
8177 anyway): E.g.,
8178
8179 des_key_schedule ks;
8180
8181 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
8182 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
8183
8184 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
8185 [Ben Laurie]
8186
8187 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
8188 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
8189 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
8190 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
8191 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
8192 functions prevents this.
8193 [Steve Henson]
8194
8195 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
8196 [Ben Laurie]
8197
8198 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
8199 correct _ecb suffix.
8200 [Ben Laurie]
8201
8202 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
8203 revocation information is handled using the text based index
8204 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
8205 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
8206 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
8207 [Steve Henson]
8208
8209 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
8210 [Richard Levitte]
8211
8212 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
8213 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
8214 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
8215 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
8216
8217 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
8218 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
8219
8220 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.

8222 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
8223 via Richard Levitte]
8224
8225 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
8226 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
8227 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
8228 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
8229 [Geoff Thorpe]
8230
8231 *) Speed up EVP routines.
8232 Before:
8233 encrypt
8234 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
8235 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
8236 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k

8247 [Ben Laurie]
8248
8249 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
8250 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
8251
8252 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
8253 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
8254 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
8255 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
8256 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
8257 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
8258 [Steve Henson]
8259
8260 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
8261 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
8262 [Richard Levitte]
8263
8264 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
8265 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
8266 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
8267 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
8268
8269 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
8270 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
8271 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
8272 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
8273 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
8274 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
8275 callback.
8276 [Richard Levitte]
8277
8278 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
8279 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
8280 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
8281 and interrupts/cancellations.
8282 [Richard Levitte]
8283
8284 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
8285 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
8286 [Steve Henson]
8287
8288 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
8289 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
8290 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
8291
8292 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
8293 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
8294 kind of callback.
8295 [Richard Levitte]
8296
8297 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
8298 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
8299 than this minimum value is recommended.
8300 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8301
8302 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
8303 that are easily reachable.
8304 [Richard Levitte]
8305
8306 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
8307 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
8308
8309 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
8310
8311 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
8312 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
8313 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
8314 needed for static libraries under Win32.
8315 [Steve Henson]
8316
8317 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
8318 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
8319 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
8320 [Steve Henson]
8321
8322 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
8323 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
8324 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
8325 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
8326 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
8327 internally such as S/MIME.
8328
8329 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
8330 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
8331 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
8332
8333 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
8334 applications.
8335 [Steve Henson]
8336
8337 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
8338 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
8339 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
8340 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
8341
8342 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
8343
8344 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
8345
8346 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
8347 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
8348 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
8349 handling.
8350 [Steve Henson]
8351
8352 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
8353 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
8354 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
8355 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
8356 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
8357 a window system and the like.
8358 [Richard Levitte]
8359
8360 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
8361 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
8362 [Geoff]
8363
8364 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
8365 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
8366 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
8367 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
8368 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
8369 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
8370 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
8371 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
8372 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
8373 ENGINE structure.
8374 [Geoff]
8375
8376 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
8377 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
8378 tag cache.
8379 [Steve Henson]
8380
8381 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
8382 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
8383 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
8384 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
8385 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
8386 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
8387 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
8388 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
8389 [Geoff]
8390
8391 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
8392 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
8393 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
8394 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
8395 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
8396 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
8397 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
8398 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
8399 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
8400 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
8401 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
8402 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
8403 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
8404 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
8405 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
8406 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
8407 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
8408 [Geoff]
8409
8410 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
8411 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
8412 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
8413 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
8414 internal engine_int.h header.
8415 [Geoff]
8416
8417 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
8418 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
8419 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
8420 modify their own ones).
8421 [Geoff]
8422
8423 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
8424 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
8425 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
8426 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
8427 later on via ctrl() commands.
8428 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
8429 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
8430 structural references.
8431 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
8432 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
8433 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
8434 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
8435 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
8436 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
8437 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
8438 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
8439 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
8440 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
8441 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
8442 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
8443 [Geoff]
8444
8445 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
8446 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
8447 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
8448 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
8449 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
8450 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
8451 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
8452 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
8453 [Bodo Moeller]
8454
8455 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
8456 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
8457 [Steve Henson]
8458
8459 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
8460 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
8461 [Steve Henson]
8462
8463 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
8464 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
8465 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
8466 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
8467 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
8468 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
8469 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
8470 [Steve Henson]
8471
8472 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
8473 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
8474 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
8475 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
8476 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
8477
8478 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
8479 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
8480 generator).
8481 [Bodo Moeller]
8482
8483 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
8484
8485 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
8486 operations and provides various method functions that can also
8487 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
8488
8489 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
8490 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
8491
8492 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
8493 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
8494 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
8495
8496 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
8497 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
8498
8499 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
8500 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
8501
8502 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
8503
8504 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
8505 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
8506 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
8507 [Bodo Moeller]
8508
8509 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
8510 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
8511 [Richard Levitte]
8512
8513 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
8514 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
8515 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
8516 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
8517 is 40 of more characters long.
8518 [Steve Henson]
8519
8520 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
8521 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
8522 pointers.
8523 [Steve Henson]
8524
8525 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
8526 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
8527 [Bodo Moeller]
8528
8529 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
8530 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
8531 might.
8532 [Steve Henson]
8533
8534 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
8535
8536 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
8537 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
8538
8539 ASN1 error codes
8540 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
8541 ...
8542 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
8543 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
8544 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
8545 ...
8546 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
8547 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
8548
8549 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
8550 [Bodo Moeller]
8551
8552 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
8553 suffices.
8554 [Bodo Moeller]
8555
8556 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
8557 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
8558 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
8559 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
8560 and
8561 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
8562
8563 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
8564 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
8565
8566 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
8567 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
8568 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
8569 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
8570 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
8571 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
8572
8573 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
8574 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
8575
8576 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
8577 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8578
8579 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
8580 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
8581
8582 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
8583 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
8584 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8585 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
8586
8587 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
8588 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
8589
8590 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
8591 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
8592
8593 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
8594 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
8595 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
8596 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
8597 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
8598 [Richard Levitte]
8599
8600 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
8601 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
8602 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
8603 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
8604 [Steve Henson]
8605
8606 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
8607 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
8608 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
8609 trust settings.
8610 [Steve Henson]
8611
8612 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
8613 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
8614 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
8615 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
8616 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
8617 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
8618 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
8619 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
8620 ocsp utility.
8621 [Steve Henson]
8622
8623 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
8624 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
8625 [Steve Henson]
8626
8627 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
8628 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
8629 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
8630 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
8631 [Steve Henson]
8632
8633 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
8634 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
8635 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
8636 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
8637 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
8638 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
8639 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
8640 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
8641 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
8642 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
8643 [Steve Henson]
8644
8645 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
8646 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
8647 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
8648 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
8649 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
8650 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
8651 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
8652 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8653
8654 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
8655 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
8656 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
8657 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
8658 [Richard Levitte]
8659
8660 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
8661 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
8662 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
8663 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
8664 opensslconf.h.
8665 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
8666 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
8667 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
8668 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
8669 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
8670 what is available.
8671 [Richard Levitte]
8672
8673 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
8674 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
8675 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
8676 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
8677 auto incremented.
8678 [Steve Henson]
8679
8680 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
8681 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
8682 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
8683 [Steve Henson]
8684
8685 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
8686 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
8687 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
8688 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
8689 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
8690 [Steve Henson]
8691
8692 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
8693 [Steve Henson]
8694
8695 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
8696 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
8697 option to ocsp utility.
8698 [Steve Henson]
8699
8700 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
8701 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
8702 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
8703 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
8704 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
8705 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
8706 the request is nonce-less.
8707 [Steve Henson]
8708
8709 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8710 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8711 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8712 [Bodo Moeller]
8713
8714 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8715 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8716 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8717 [Steve Henson]
8718
8719 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8720 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8721 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8722 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8723 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8724 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8725
8726 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8727 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8728 appear to exist.
8729 [Steve Henson]
8730
8731 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8732 additional certificates supplied.
8733 [Steve Henson]
8734
8735 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8736 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8737 signature against.
8738 [Richard Levitte]
8739
8740 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8741 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8742 AES OIDs.
8743
8744 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8745 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8746 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8747 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8748 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8749 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8750 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8751 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8752 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8753
8754 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8755 request to response.
8756 [Steve Henson]
8757
8758 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8759 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8760 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8761 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8762 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8763 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8764 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8765 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8766 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8767 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8768 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8769 [Steve Henson]
8770
8771 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8772 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8773 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8774 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8775 [Steve Henson]
8776
8777 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8778 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8779
8780 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8781 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8782 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8783 [Steve Henson]
8784
8785 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8786 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8787 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8788 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8789 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8790
8791 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8792 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8793 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8794 [Steve Henson]
8795
8796 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8797 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8798 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8799 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8800 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8801 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8802 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8803 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8804
8805 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8806 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8807 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8808 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8809 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8810 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8811 [Steve Henson]
8812
8813 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8814 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8815 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8816 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8817 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8818 printout format cleaned up.
8819 [Steve Henson]
8820
8821 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8822 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8823 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8824 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8825 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8826 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8827 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8828 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8829 [Steve Henson]
8830
8831 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8832 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8833 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8834 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8835 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8836 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8837 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8838 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8839 [Steve Henson]
8840
8841 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8842 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8843 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8844 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8845 section to use.
8846 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8847
8848 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8849 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8850 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8851 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8852 [Steve Henson]
8853
8854 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8855 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8856 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8857 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8858 in the index file.
8859 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8860
8861 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8862 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8863 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8864 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8865
8866 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8867 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8868
8869 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8870 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8871 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8872 [Steve Henson]
8873
8874 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8875 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8876 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8877 [Bodo Moeller]
8878
8879 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8880 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8881 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8882 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8883 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8884 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8885 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8886 functions are provided:
8887
8888 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8889 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8890 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8891 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8892
8893 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8894 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8895 extended allocation function is enabled.
8896 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8897 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8898 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8899
8900 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8901 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8902 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8903 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8904 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8905 [Geoff Thorpe]
8906
8907 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8908 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8909 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8910 be queried.
8911 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8912 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8913 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8914 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8915
8916 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8917 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8918 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8919 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8920 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8921 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8922 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8923 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8924 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8925 [Richard Levitte]
8926
8927 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8928 provide utility functions which an application needing
8929 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8930 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8931 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8932
8933 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8934 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8935 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8936 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8937 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8938 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8939 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8940 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8941 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8942
8943 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8944 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8945 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8946 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8947 [Steve Henson]
8948
8949 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8950 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8951 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8952 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8953 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8954 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8955 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8956 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8957 will be added elsewhere.
8958 [Steve Henson]
8959
8960 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8961 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8962 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8963 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8964 [Steve Henson]
8965
8966 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8967 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8968 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8969 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8970 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8971 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8972 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8973 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8974 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8975 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8976 to produce the required SET OF.
8977 [Steve Henson]
8978
8979 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8980 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8981 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8982 [Richard Levitte]
8983
8984 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8985 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8986 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8987 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8988 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8989 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8990 [Steve Henson]
8991
8992 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8993 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8994 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8995 [Steve Henson]
8996
8997 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8998 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8999 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
9000 [Richard Levitte]
9001
9002 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
9003 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
9004 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
9005 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
9006 code will still work when these eventually go away.
9007 [Steve Henson]
9008
9009 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
9010 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
9011 [Steve Henson]
9012
9013 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
9014 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
9015 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
9016 certificates and CRLs.
9017 [Steve Henson]
9018
9019 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
9020 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
9021 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
9022 [Steve Henson]
9023
9024 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
9025 entries for variables.
9026 [Steve Henson]
9027
9028 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
9029 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
9030 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
9031 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
9032 [Bodo Moeller]
9033
9034 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
9035 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
9036 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
9037 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
9038 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
9039 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
9040 [Bodo Moeller]
9041
9042 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
9043 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
9044
9045 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
9046 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
9047 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
9048 [Steve Henson]
9049
9050 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
9051 print routines.
9052 [Steve Henson]
9053
9054 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
9055 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
9056 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
9057 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
9058 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
9059 order did not reflect the encoded order.
9060 [Steve Henson]
9061
9062 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
9063 [Steve Henson]
9064
9065 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
9066 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
9067 for now but they will eventually go away.
9068 [Steve Henson]
9069
9070 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
9071 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
9072 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
9073 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
9074 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
9075 has also been converted to the new form.
9076 [Steve Henson]
9077
9078 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
9079 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
9080 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
9081 for negative moduli.
9082 [Bodo Moeller]
9083
9084 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
9085 of not touching the result's sign bit.
9086 [Bodo Moeller]
9087
9088 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
9089 set.
9090 [Bodo Moeller]
9091
9092 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
9093 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
9094 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
9095 type-specific callbacks.
9096 [Geoff Thorpe]
9097
9098 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
9099 RFC 2712.
9100 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
9101 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
9102
9103 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
9104 in sections depending on the subject.
9105 [Richard Levitte]
9106
9107 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
9108 Windows.
9109 [Richard Levitte]
9110
9111 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
9112 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
9113 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
9114 be handled deterministically).
9115 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
9116
9117 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
9118 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
9119 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
9120 [Bodo Moeller]
9121
9122 *) New function BN_kronecker.
9123 [Bodo Moeller]
9124
9125 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
9126 positive unless both parameters are zero.
9127 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
9128 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
9129 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
9130 [Bodo Moeller]
9131
9132 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
9133 sign of the number in question.
9134
9135 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
9136
9137 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
9138 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
9139 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
9140 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
9141 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
9142 [Bodo Moeller]
9143
9144 *) New function BN_swap.
9145 [Bodo Moeller]
9146
9147 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
9148 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
9149 results on negative inputs.
9150 [Bodo Moeller]
9151
9152 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
9153 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
9154 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
9155 [Bodo Moeller]
9156
9157 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
9158 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
9159 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
9160 and add new functions:
9161
9162 BN_nnmod
9163 BN_mod_sqr
9164 BN_mod_add
9165 BN_mod_add_quick
9166 BN_mod_sub
9167 BN_mod_sub_quick
9168 BN_mod_lshift1
9169 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
9170 BN_mod_lshift
9171 BN_mod_lshift_quick
9172
9173 These functions always generate non-negative results.
9174
9175 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
9176 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
9177
9178 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
9179 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
9180 be reduced modulo m.
9181 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
9182
9183 #if 0
9184 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
9185 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
9186 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
9187
9188 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
9189 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
9190 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
9191 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
9192 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
9193 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
9194 differing sizes.
9195 [Richard Levitte]
9196 #endif
9197
9198 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
9199 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
9200 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
9201 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
9202 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
9203
9204 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
9205 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
9206 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
9207 cause any problems.
9208 [Bodo Moeller]
9209
9210 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
9211 [Richard Levitte]
9212
9213 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
9214 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
9215 [Richard Levitte]
9216
9217 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
9218 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
9219 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
9220 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
9221 time)
9222 [Richard Levitte]
9223
9224 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
9225 [Richard Levitte]
9226
9227 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
9228 [Richard Levitte]
9229
9230 *) Add the following functions:
9231
9232 ENGINE_load_cswift()
9233 ENGINE_load_chil()
9234 ENGINE_load_atalla()
9235 ENGINE_load_nuron()
9236 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
9237
9238 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
9239 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
9240 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
9241 libraries unless it's really needed.
9242
9243 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
9244 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
9245 declarations (they differed!).
9246 [Richard Levitte]
9247
9248 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
9249 [Richard Levitte]
9250
9251 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
9252 [Richard Levitte]
9253
9254 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
9255 [Bodo Moeller]
9256
9257 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
9258 identity, and test if they are actually available.
9259 [Richard Levitte]
9260
9261 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
9262 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
9263 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
9264
9265 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
9266 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
9267 [Richard Levitte]
9268
9269 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
9270 [Richard Levitte]
9271
9272 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
9273 [Richard Levitte]
9274
9275 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
9276 [Ben Laurie]
9277
9278 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
9279 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
9280 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
9281
9282 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
9283 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
9284 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
9285 different shared library filenames on each system.
9286 [Geoff Thorpe]
9287
9288 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
9289 [Richard Levitte]
9290
9291 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
9292 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
9293 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
9294 of two sections.
9295 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
9296
9297 *) NCONF changes.
9298 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
9299 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
9300 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
9301 binary backward compatibility.
9302 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
9303 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
9304 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
9305 LDAP server.
9306 [Richard Levitte]
9307
9308 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
9309 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
9310 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
9311 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
9312 this case.
9313 [Steve Henson]
9314
9315 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
9316 [Ben Laurie]
9317
9318 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
9319 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
9320 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
9321 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
9322 set.
9323 [Steve Henson]
9324
9325 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
9326 [Richard Levitte]
9327
9328 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
9329
9330 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
9331 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
9332 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
9333
9334 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
9335
9336 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
9337
9338 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
9339 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
9340 [Steve Henson]
9341
9342 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
9343
9344 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
9345
9346 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
9347 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
9348
9349 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
9350 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
9351
9352 [Steve Henson]
9353
9354 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
9355 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
9356 specifications.
9357 [Steve Henson]
9358
9359 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
9360 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
9361 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
9362 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
9363
9364 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
9365 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
9366 [Richard Levitte]
9367
9368 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
9369
9370 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
9371 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
9372 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
9373 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
9374 [Bodo Moeller]
9375
9376 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
9377 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
9378 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
9379 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
9380 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9381
9382 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
9383 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
9384 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
9385 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
9386 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
9387 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
9388 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
9389 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
9390 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
9391 [Bodo Moeller]
9392
9393 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
9394
9395 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
9396 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
9397 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
9398 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
9399 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
9400
9401 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
9402 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
9403 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
9404
9405 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
9406
9407 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
9408 memory from its contents. This is done with a counter that will
9409 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
9410 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
9411 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
9412 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
9413 [Geoff Thorpe]
9414
9415 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
9416 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
9417 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
9418 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
9419 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
9420 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9421
9422 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
9423 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
9424 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
9425
9426 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
9427 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
9428 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
9429 EVP_cleanup().
9430 [Richard Levitte]
9431
9432 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
9433 being properly terminated.
9434 [Richard Levitte]
9435
9436 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
9437 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
9438 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
9439 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
9440
9441 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
9442 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
9443 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
9444 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
9445 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
9446 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
9447 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
9448 change.
9449 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
9450
9451 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
9452 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
9453 [Bodo Moeller]
9454
9455 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
9456 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
9457 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
9458 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
9459 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
9460 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
9461 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
9462 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
9463
9464 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
9465 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
9466 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
9467 (see [openssl.org #212]).
9468 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
9469
9470 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
9471 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
9472 [Steve Henson]
9473
9474 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
9475
9476 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
9477 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
9478 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
9479
9480 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
9481
9482 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
9483 and get fix the header length calculation.
9484 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
9485 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
9486 Steve Henson]
9487
9488 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
9489 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
9490 assertions could call abort()).
9491 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
9492
9493 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
9494
9495 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9496 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9497 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9498 supplied buffer.
9499 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9500
9501 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
9502 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
9503 by the selection routines (PR #130).
9504 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9505
9506 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
9507 [Nils Larsch]
9508
9509 *) New option
9510 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
9511 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
9512 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
9513
9514 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
9515 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
9516 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
9517 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
9518 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
9519 applications.
9520 [Bodo Moeller]
9521
9522 *) Changes in security patch:
9523
9524 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
9525 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
9526 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
9527 F30602-01-2-0537.
9528
9529 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9530 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9531 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9532 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
9533 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9534
9535 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
9536 happen in practice.
9537 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9538
9539 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
9540 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
9541 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
9542
9543 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
9544 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
9545 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9546
9547 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
9548 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
9549 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9550
9551 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
9552
9553 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
9554 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
9555 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
9556
9557 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
9558 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
9559
9560 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
9561 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
9562 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
9563 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
9564 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
9565 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
9566 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9567
9568 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
9569 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
9570 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
9571 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
9572 [Bodo Moeller]
9573
9574 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
9575 [Bodo Moeller]
9576
9577 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
9578 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
9579 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
9580 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
9581 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
9582 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9583
9584 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
9585 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
9586 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
9587 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
9588 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
9589 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9590
9591 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
9592 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
9593 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
9594 BN_generate_prime().)
9595
9596 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
9597 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
9598 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
9599 better.
9600 [Bodo Moeller]
9601
9602 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
9603 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
9604 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9605
9606 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
9607 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
9608 when using non-blocking I/O.
9609 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
9610
9611 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
9612 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
9613
9614 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
9615 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
9616 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9617
9618 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
9619 configuration for the versions before that.
9620 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
9621
9622 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
9623 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
9624 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
9625 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
9626 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9627
9628 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
9629 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
9630 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
9631 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9632
9633 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
9634 value is 0.
9635 [Richard Levitte]
9636
9637 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
9638 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
9639 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
9640
9641 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
9642 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
9643
9644 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
9645 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
9646 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
9647 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
9648 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
9649 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
9650 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
9651 session cache.
9652
9653 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
9654 using a local variable.
9655 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
9656
9657 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
9658 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
9659 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9660
9661 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
9662 [Richard Levitte]
9663
9664 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
9665 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
9666
9667 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
9668 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
9669 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
9670
9671 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
9672
9673 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
9674 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
9675 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
9676 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
9677 [Bodo Moeller]
9678
9679 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
9680 present.
9681 [Steve Henson]
9682
9683 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
9684 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
9685 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
9686 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
9687 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
9688
9689 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
9690 returns early because it has nothing to do.
9691 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9692
9693 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9694 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
9695 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9696
9697 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9698 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
9699 (Use engine 'keyclient')
9700 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
9701
9702 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
9703 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
9704 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
9705 modules).
9706 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
9707
9708 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9709 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9710 from 0.9.7.
9711 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9712
9713 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9714 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9715 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9716 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9717
9718 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9719 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9720 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9721 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9722
9723 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9724 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9725
9726 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9727 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9728 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9729 [Bodo Moeller]
9730
9731 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9732 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9733 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9734 become invalid.
9735 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9736
9737 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9738 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9739 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9740 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9741 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9742 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9743 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9744 [Bodo Moeller]
9745
9746 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9747 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9748 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9749 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9750
9751 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9752 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9753 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9754 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9755 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9756 the client will at least see that alert.
9757 [Bodo Moeller]
9758
9759 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9760 correctly.
9761 [Bodo Moeller]
9762
9763 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9764 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9765 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9766
9767 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9768 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9769 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9770 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9771 HelloRequest.
9772
9773 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9774 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9775 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9776
9777 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9778 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9779 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9780 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9781 may leak via logfiles.)
9782
9783 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9784 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9785 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9786 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9787 the legal range.
9788 [Bodo Moeller]
9789
9790 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9791 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9792 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9793
9794 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9795 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9796 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9797 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9798 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9799 [Bodo Moeller]
9800
9801 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9802 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9803
9804 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9805 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9806 followed by modular reduction.
9807 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9808
9809 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9810 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9811 [Bodo Moeller]
9812
9813 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9814 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9815 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9816 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9817 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9818
9819 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9820 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9821
9822 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9823 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9824 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9825
9826 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9827 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9828 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9829 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9830 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9831 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9832 automatically.
9833 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9834
9835 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9836 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9837 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9838 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9839 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9840
9841 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9842 [Andy Polyakov]
9843
9844 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9845 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9846 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9847 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9848 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9849 to allow the necessary settings.
9850 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9851
9852 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9853 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9854 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9855 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9856 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9857
9858 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9859 dh->length and always used
9860
9861 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9862
9863 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9864 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9865 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9866 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9867 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9868 dh->length.
9869
9870 So switch back to
9871
9872 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9873
9874 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9875 otherwise.
9876 [Bodo Moeller]
9877
9878 *) In
9879
9880 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9881 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9882 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9883 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9884
9885 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9886 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9887 always reject numbers >= n.
9888 [Bodo Moeller]
9889
9890 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9891 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9892 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9893 variable) is not atomic.
9894 [Bodo Moeller]
9895
9896 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9897 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9898 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9899 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9900
9901 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9902 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9903
9904 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9905 little-endian MIPS.
9906 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9907
9908 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9909 [Richard Levitte]
9910
9911 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9912
9913 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9914 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9915 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9916 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9917 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9918 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9919 to traverse all of 'state'.
9920
9921 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9922 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9923 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9924
9925 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9926 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9927
9928 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9929 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9930 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9931 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9932 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9933 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9934 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9935 further strengthens the PRNG.
9936 [Bodo Moeller]
9937
9938 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9939 [Andy Polyakov]
9940
9941 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9942 an error message in this case.
9943 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9944
9945 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9946 [Steve Henson]
9947
9948 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9949 positive and less than q.
9950 [Bodo Moeller]
9951
9952 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9953 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9954 that itself.
9955 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9956
9957 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9958 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9959 [Bodo Moeller]
9960
9961 *) Fix OAEP check.
9962 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9963
9964 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9965 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9966 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9967 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9968 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9969 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9970 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9971 paper.)
9972
9973 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9974 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9975 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9976 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9977
9978 Both problems are now fixed.
9979 [Bodo Moeller]
9980
9981 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9982 (previously it was 1024).
9983 [Bodo Moeller]
9984
9985 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9986 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9987 [Steve Henson]
9988
9989 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9990 [Steve Henson]
9991
9992 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9993 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9994 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9995 [Steve Henson]
9996
9997 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9998 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9999 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
10000 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
10001 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
10002 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
10003 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
10004 environment variables.
10005
10006 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
10007 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
10008 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
10009 [Bodo Moeller]
10010
10011 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
10012 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
10013 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
10014 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
10015 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
10016 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
10017 [Bodo Moeller]
10018
10019 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
10020 versions of 'test'.
10021 [Bodo Moeller]
10022
10023 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
10024
10025 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
10026 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
10027
10028 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
10029 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
10030 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
10031 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
10032 CygWin.
10033 [Richard Levitte]
10034
10035 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
10036 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
10037 amount of data available.
10038 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
10039 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
10040
10041 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
10042 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
10043 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
10044 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
10045 [Bodo Moeller]
10046
10047 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
10048 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
10049 and UnixWare.
10050 [Richard Levitte]
10051
10052 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
10053 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
10054 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
10055 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
10056 [Ulf Moeller]
10057
10058 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
10059 [Andy Polyakov]
10060
10061 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
10062 [Richard Levitte]
10063
10064 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
10065 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
10066 [Steve Henson]
10067 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
10068
10069 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
10070 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
10071 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
10072 (but broken) behaviour.
10073 [Steve Henson]
10074
10075 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
10076 it when found.
10077 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
10078
10079 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
10080 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
10081 [Bodo Moeller]
10082
10083 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
10084 did not exist.
10085 [Bodo Moeller]
10086
10087 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
10088 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
10089
10090 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
10091 [Richard Levitte]
10092
10093 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
10094 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
10095 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
10096
10097 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
10098 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
10099 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
10100 [Steve Henson]
10101
10102 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
10103 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
10104 [Ulf Moeller]
10105
10106 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
10107 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
10108
10109 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
10110
10111 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
10112
10113 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
10114 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
10115 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
10116 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
10117 [Bodo Moeller]
10118
10119 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
10120 [Lutz Jaenicke]
10121
10122 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
10123 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
10124 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
10125
10126 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
10127 was empty.
10128 [Steve Henson]
10129 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
10130
10131 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
10132 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
10133 but the code is actually correct.
10134 [Steve Henson]
10135
10136 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
10137 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
10138 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
10139 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
10140 and leaves the highest bit random.
10141 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
10142
10143 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
10144 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
10145 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
10146 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
10147 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
10148 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
10149 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
10150 [Bodo Moeller]
10151
10152 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
10153 [Ulf Moeller]
10154
10155 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
10156 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
10157 [Steve Henson]
10158
10159 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
10160 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
10161 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
10162 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
10163 headers.
10164 [Richard Levitte]
10165
10166 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
10167 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
10168 and break the signature.
10169 [Steve Henson]
10170 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
10171
10172 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
10173 DH ciphersuites.
10174 [Steve Henson]
10175
10176 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
10177 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
10178 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
10179 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
10180 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
10181 [Bodo Moeller]
10182
10183 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
10184 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
10185
10186 *) ./config script fixes.
10187 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
10188
10189 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
10190 [Bodo Moeller]
10191
10192 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
10193 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
10194 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
10195 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
10196 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
10197
10198 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
10199 call failed, free the DSA structure.
10200 [Bodo Moeller]
10201
10202 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
10203 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
10204 [Steve Henson]
10205
10206 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
10207 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
10208 when writing a 32767 byte record.
10209 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
10210
10211 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
10212 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
10213
10214 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
10215 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
10216 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
10217 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
10218 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
10219
10220 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
10221 [Bodo Moeller]
10222
10223 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
10224 [Ulf Möller]
10225
10226 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
10227 [Ulf Möller]
10228
10229 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
10230 [Bodo Moeller]
10231
10232 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
10233 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
10234 [Bodo Moeller]
10235
10236 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
10237 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
10238 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
10239 result of the server certificate verification.)
10240 [Lutz Jaenicke]
10241
10242 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
10243 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
10244 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
10245 [Bodo Moeller]
10246
10247 *) Fix SSL_peek:
10248 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
10249 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
10250 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
10251 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
10252 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
10253 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
10254 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
10255 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
10256 [Bodo Moeller]
10257
10258 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
10259 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
10260 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
10261 happening the other way round.
10262 [Geoff Thorpe]
10263
10264 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
10265 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
10266 [Bodo Moeller]
10267
10268 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
10269 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
10270 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
10271 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
10272 [Richard Levitte]
10273
10274 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
10275 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
10276
10277 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
10278
10279 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
10280 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
10281 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
10282 that.
10283
10284 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
10285
10286 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
10287
10288 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
10289 static ones.
10290 [Richard Levitte]
10291
10292 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
10293
10294 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
10295 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
10296 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
10297 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
10298 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
10299
10300 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
10301 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
10302 matter what.
10303 [Richard Levitte]
10304
10305 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
10306 [Lutz Jaenicke]
10307
10308 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
10309
10310 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
10311 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
10312 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
10313 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
10314 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
10315 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
10316 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
10317 by the Finished messages.
10318 [Bodo Moeller]
10319
10320 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
10321 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
10322
10323 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
10324 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
10325 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
10326 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
10327 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
10328 appropriately.
10329 [Steve Henson]
10330
10331 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
10332 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
10333 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
10334 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
10335 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
10336 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
10337 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
10338 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
10339 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
10340 together.
10341 [Steve Henson]
10342
10343 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
10344 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
10345 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
10346 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
10347
10348 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
10349 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
10350 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
10351 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
10352 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
10353 the answer.
10354
10355 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
10356 been tested well enough.
10357 [Richard Levitte]
10358
10359 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
10360 it can return incorrect results.
10361 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
10362 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
10363 [Bodo Moeller]
10364
10365 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
10366 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
10367 include zero length content when signing messages.
10368 [Steve Henson]
10369
10370 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
10371 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
10372 [Bodo Möller]
10373
10374 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
10375 [Richard Levitte]
10376
10377 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
10378 wrong sign.
10379 [Ulf Möller]
10380
10381 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
10382 packages. The default package contains applications, application
10383 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
10384 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
10385 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
10386 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
10387 [Richard Levitte]
10388
10389 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
10390 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10391
10392 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
10393 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
10394
10395 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
10396 random number < q in the DSA library.
10397 [Ulf Möller]
10398
10399 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
10400 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
10401 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
10402 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
10403 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
10404 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
10405 just makes things more complicated.)
10406 [Bodo Moeller]
10407
10408 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
10409 from EGD.
10410 [Ben Laurie]
10411
10412 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
10413 work better on such systems.
10414 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10415
10416 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
10417 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
10418 keyid to the certificates aux info.
10419 [Steve Henson]
10420
10421 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
10422 if there was more than one signature.
10423 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
10424
10425 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
10426 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
10427 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
10428 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
10429 [Richard Levitte]
10430
10431 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
10432 rather than always using the current time.
10433 [Steve Henson]
10434
10435 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
10436 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
10437 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
10438 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
10439 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
10440 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
10441
10442 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
10443 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
10444
10445 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
10446
10447 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
10448 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
10449 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
10450 the same hash value.
10451
10452 As a result various functions (which were all internal
10453 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
10454 structure. This will break anything that messed round
10455 with X509_STORE internally.
10456
10457 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
10458 exact match, rather than just subject name.
10459
10460 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
10461 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
10462 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
10463 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
10464 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
10465 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
10466 entirely (maybe later...).
10467
10468 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
10469
10470 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
10471 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
10472 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
10473 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
10474 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
10475 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
10476 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
10477 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
10478
10479 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
10480 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
10481
10482 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
10483 to customise the verify behaviour.
10484 [Steve Henson]
10485
10486 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
10487 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
10488 [Steve Henson]
10489
10490 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
10491 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
10492 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
10493 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
10494 request is improperly encoded.
10495 [Steve Henson]
10496
10497 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
10498 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
10499 BIO_write(b, ...).
10500
10501 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
10502 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
10503
10504 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
10505 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
10506 words set to zero.)
10507 [Bodo Moeller]
10508
10509 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
10510 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
10511 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
10512 [Bodo Moeller]
10513
10514 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
10515 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
10516 BIO/fp routines also added.
10517 [Steve Henson]
10518
10519 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
10520 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
10521
10522 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
10523 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
10524 demos/state_machine.
10525 [Ben Laurie]
10526
10527 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
10528 generation and verification.
10529 [Steve Henson]
10530
10531 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
10532 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
10533 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
10534 encode and decode it manually.
10535 [Steve Henson]
10536
10537 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
10538 compile under VC++.
10539 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
10540
10541 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
10542 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
10543 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
10544 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
10545
10546 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
10547 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
10548 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
10549 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
10550 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
10551 [Steve Henson]
10552
10553 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
10554 [Richard Levitte]
10555
10556 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
10557 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
10558 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
10559
10560 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
10561 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
10562 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
10563 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
10564 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
10565 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
10566 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
10567 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
10568
10569 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
10570 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
10571
10572 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
10573
10574 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
10575 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
10576 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
10577
10578 [Richard Levitte]
10579
10580 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
10581 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
10582 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
10583 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
10584 [Richard Levitte]
10585
10586 *) MD4 implemented.
10587 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
10588
10589 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
10590 [Richard Levitte]
10591
10592 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
10593 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
10594 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
10595 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
10596 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
10597 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
10598 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
10599 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
10600 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
10601 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
10602 short or long names are found.
10603 [Steve Henson]
10604
10605 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
10606 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
10607
10608 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
10609 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
10610 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
10611 version rollback attacks was not effective.
10612
10613 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
10614 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
10615 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
10616 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
10617 [Bodo Moeller]
10618
10619 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
10620 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
10621 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
10622 [Richard Levitte]
10623
10624 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
10625 these print out strings and name structures based on various
10626 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
10627 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
10628 to allow the various flags to be set.
10629 [Steve Henson]
10630
10631 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
10632 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
10633 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
10634 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
10635 dates to be checked.
10636 [Steve Henson]
10637
10638 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
10639 negative public key encodings) on by default,
10640 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
10641 [Steve Henson]
10642
10643 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
10644 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
10645 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
10646 [Steve Henson]
10647
10648 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
10649 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
10650 [Bodo Moeller]
10651
10652 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
10653 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
10654 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
10655 are always statically linked for now, but there are
10656 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
10657 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
10658 [Richard Levitte]
10659
10660 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
10661 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
10662 Random Numbers.
10663 [Ulf Möller]
10664
10665 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
10666 DSA key.
10667 [Steve Henson]
10668
10669 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
10670 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
10671 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
10672 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
10673 form signing output easier to verify.
10674 [Steve Henson]
10675
10676 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
10677 [Steve Henson]
10678
10679 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
10680 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
10681 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
10682 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
10683 are needed because all other string types have virtually
10684 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
10685 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
10686 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
10687 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
10688 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
10689 [Steve Henson]
10690
10691 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
10692
10693 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
10694 the syntax given in objects.README.
10695 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
10696 obj_mac.h.
10697 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
10698 obj_mac.h.
10699
10700 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
10701 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
10702 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
10703 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
10704 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
10705 consistent name changes.
10706 [Richard Levitte]
10707
10708 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
10709 [Bodo Moeller]
10710
10711 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10712 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10713 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10714 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10715 [Richard Levitte]
10716
10717 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10718 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10719 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10720 of safestack.h .
10721 [Steve Henson]
10722
10723 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10724 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10725 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10726 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10727 [Steve Henson]
10728
10729 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10730 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10731 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10732 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10733 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10734 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10735 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10736 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10737 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10738 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10739 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10740 [Steve Henson]
10741
10742 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10743 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10744 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10745 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10746 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10747 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10748 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10749 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10750 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10751 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10752 [Steve Henson]
10753
10754 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10755 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10756 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10757 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10758
10759 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10760 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10761 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10762 omit any duplicate addresses.
10763 [Steve Henson]
10764
10765 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10766 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10767 [Bodo Moeller]
10768
10769 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10770 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10771 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10772 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10773 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10774 [Bodo Moeller]
10775
10776 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10777 software:
10778 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10779 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10780 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10781 Free => OPENSSL_free
10782 [Richard Levitte]
10783
10784 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10785 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10786 [Bodo Moeller]
10787
10788 *) CygWin32 support.
10789 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10790
10791 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10792 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10793 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10794 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10795 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10796 approach.
10797 [Geoff Thorpe]
10798
10799 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10800 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10801 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10802 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10803 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10804 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10805 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10806 [Geoff Thorpe]
10807
10808 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10809 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10810 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10811 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10812 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10813 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10814 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10815 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10816 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10817 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10818 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10819 [Bodo Moeller]
10820
10821 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10822 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10823 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10824 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10825 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10826
10827 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10828 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10829 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10830 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10831 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10832
10833 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10834 ciphers.
10835
10836 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10837 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10838 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10839 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10840
10841 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10842
10843 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10844 of macros.
10845
10846 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10847 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10848 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10849 flags.
10850
10851 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10852 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10853 any installed hardware versions can.
10854 [Steve Henson]
10855
10856 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10857 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10858 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10859 number.
10860 [Bodo Moeller]
10861
10862 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10863 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10864 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10865 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10866 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10867
10868 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10869 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10870 [Steve Henson]
10871
10872 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10873 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10874 [Richard Levitte]
10875
10876 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10877 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10878 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10879 features.
10880 [Steve Henson]
10881
10882 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10883 [Ulf Möller]
10884
10885 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10886 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10887 but no ssl client purpose.
10888 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10889
10890 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10891 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10892 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10893 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10894 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10895 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10896 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10897 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10898 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10899 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10900 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10901 [Steve Henson]
10902
10903 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10904 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10905 be obtained from the error queue.
10906 [Bodo Moeller]
10907
10908 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10909 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10910 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10911 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10912 [Bodo Moeller]
10913
10914 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10915 [Ulf Möller]
10916
10917 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10918 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10919 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10920 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10921 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10922 [Geoff Thorpe]
10923
10924 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10925 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10926 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10927 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10928 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10929 [Geoff Thorpe]
10930
10931 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10932 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10933 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10934 may not be NULL.
10935 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10936
10937 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10938 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10939 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10940 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10941 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10942 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10943 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10944 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10945 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10946 or "the configuration storage API"...
10947
10948 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10949
10950 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10951 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10952
10953 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10954
10955 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10956
10957 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10958 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10959 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10960 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10961 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10962 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
10963 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10964
10965 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10966 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10967 [Richard Levitte]
10968
10969 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10970 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10971 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10972 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10973 [Bodo Moeller]
10974
10975 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10976 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10977 them in a portable way.
10978 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10979
10980 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10981
10982 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10983
10984 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10985 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10986
10987 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10988 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10989 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10990 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10991
10992 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10993 was larger than the MD block size.
10994 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10995
10996 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10997 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10998 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10999 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
11000 components.
11001 [Steve Henson]
11002
11003 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
11004 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
11005 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
11006
11007 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
11008 discouraged.
11009 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
11010
11011 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
11012 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
11013 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
11014 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
11015 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
11016 Additional arguments are always ignored.
11017
11018 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
11019 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
11020
11021 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
11022 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
11023 [Bodo Moeller]
11024
11025 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
11026 [Bodo Moeller]
11027
11028 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
11029 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
11030 its own key.
11031 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
11032 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
11033 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
11034 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
11035 [Bodo Moeller]
11036
11037 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
11038 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
11039 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
11040 does not suppress any output.
11041 [Richard Levitte]
11042
11043 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
11044 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
11045 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
11046 with all the associated security issues.
11047
11048 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
11049 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
11050 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
11051 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
11052 use the value in the default purpose.
11053 [Steve Henson]
11054
11055 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
11056 and fix a memory leak.
11057 [Steve Henson]
11058
11059 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
11060 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
11061 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
11062 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
11063 [Bodo Moeller]
11064
11065 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
11066 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
11067 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
11068 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
11069 [Bodo Moeller]
11070
11071 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
11072 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
11073 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
11074 [Bodo Moeller]
11075
11076 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
11077 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
11078 [Bodo Moeller]
11079
11080 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
11081 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
11082 which was free.
11083 [Steve Henson]
11084
11085 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
11086 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
11087 [Bodo Moeller]
11088
11089 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
11090 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
11091 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
11092 [Bodo Moeller]
11093
11094 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
11095 number generation fails.
11096 [Bodo Moeller]
11097
11098 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
11099 [Bodo Moeller]
11100
11101 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
11102 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
11103
11104 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
11105 [Ulf Möller]
11106
11107 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
11108 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
11109
11110 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
11111 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
11112
11113 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
11114
11115 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
11116 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
11117 [Steve Henson]
11118
11119 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
11120 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
11121
11122 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
11123 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
11124 [Ulf Möller]
11125
11126 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
11127 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
11128 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
11129 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
11130 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
11131 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
11132
11133 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
11134 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
11135 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
11136 for example.
11137 [Steve Henson]
11138
11139 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
11140 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
11141 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
11142 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
11143 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
11144 counter, some don't.)
11145 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
11146 counters or duplicate objects.
11147 [Steve Henson]
11148
11149 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
11150 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
11151 [Steve Henson]
11152
11153 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
11154 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
11155 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
11156
11157 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
11158 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
11159 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
11160 or -rand.
11161 [Ulf Möller]
11162
11163 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
11164 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
11165 [Steve Henson]
11166
11167 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
11168 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
11169 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
11170 cipher list.
11171 [Steve Henson]
11172
11173 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
11174 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
11175 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
11176 [Steve Henson]
11177
11178 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
11179 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
11180 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
11181 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
11182 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
11183 should work without changes.
11184 [Richard Levitte]
11185
11186 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
11187 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
11188 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
11189 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
11190 must be defined. E.g.,
11191 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
11192 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
11193 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
11194 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
11195
11196 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
11197 record layer.
11198 [Bodo Moeller]
11199
11200 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
11201 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
11202 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
11203 [Steve Henson]
11204
11205 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
11206 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
11207 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
11208 request header lines. Some software needs this.
11209 [Steve Henson]
11210
11211 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
11212 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
11213 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
11214 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
11215 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
11216 is prompted for as usual.
11217 [Steve Henson]
11218
11219 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
11220 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
11221 autodetect the card and use it if present.
11222 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
11223
11224 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
11225 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
11226 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
11227 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
11228 [Steve Henson]
11229
11230 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
11231 [Andy Polyakov]
11232
11233 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
11234 of seed file.
11235 [Steve Henson]
11236
11237 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
11238 [Bodo Moeller]
11239
11240 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
11241 [Steve Henson]
11242
11243 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
11244 bits.
11245 [Ulf Möller]
11246
11247 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
11248 [Ulf Möller]
11249
11250 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
11251 [Andy Polyakov]
11252
11253 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
11254 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
11255 [Ulf Möller]
11256
11257 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
11258 options to produce them.
11259 [Steve Henson]
11260
11261 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
11262 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
11263 [Ulf Möller]
11264
11265 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
11266 for p == 0.
11267 [Ulf Möller]
11268
11269 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
11270 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
11271 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
11272 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
11273 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
11274 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
11275 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
11276 [Steve Henson]
11277
11278 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
11279 [Steve Henson]
11280
11281 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
11282 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
11283 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
11284 [Bodo Moeller]
11285
11286 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
11287 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
11288
11289 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
11290 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
11291 [Ulf Möller]
11292
11293 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
11294 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
11295 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
11296 has already seen).
11297 [Bodo Moeller]
11298
11299 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
11300 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
11301
11302 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
11303 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
11304 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
11305 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
11306 generation becomes much faster.
11307
11308 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
11309 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
11310 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
11311 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
11312 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
11313 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
11314 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
11315 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
11316 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
11317 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
11318 [Bodo Moeller]
11319
11320 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
11321 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
11322 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
11323 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
11324 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
11325 trial division stage.
11326 [Bodo Moeller]
11327
11328 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
11329 as ASN1_TIME.
11330 [Steve Henson]
11331
11332 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
11333 [Steve Henson]
11334
11335 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
11336 [Ulf Möller]
11337
11338 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
11339 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
11340 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
11341 the comments.
11342 [Ulf Möller]
11343
11344 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
11345 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
11346 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
11347 [Bodo Moeller]
11348
11349 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
11350 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
11351 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
11352 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
11353
11354 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
11355 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
11356 [Steve Henson]
11357
11358 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
11359 [Ulf Möller]
11360
11361 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
11362 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
11363 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
11364 Rabin-Miller iterations.
11365 [Ulf Möller]
11366
11367 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
11368 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
11369 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
11370 [Ulf Möller]
11371
11372 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
11373 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
11374 (instead of parameters) in future.
11375 [Steve Henson]
11376
11377 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
11378 when a new cipher list is set.
11379 [Steve Henson]
11380
11381 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
11382 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
11383 wrong.
11384
11385 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
11386 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
11387 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
11388
11389 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
11390 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
11391 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
11392 an error is flagged.
11393
11394 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
11395 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
11396 the readability was also increased :-)
11397 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
11398
11399 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
11400 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
11401 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
11402 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
11403 as the root CA.
11404 [Steve Henson]
11405
11406 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
11407 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
11408 [Steve Henson]
11409
11410 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
11411 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
11412 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
11413 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
11414 instead.
11415
11416 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
11417 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
11418 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
11419 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
11420 because they handle more complex structures.)
11421 [Steve Henson]
11422
11423 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
11424 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
11425 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
11426 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
11427
11428 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
11429 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
11430 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
11431 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
11432 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
11433 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
11434 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
11435 [Ulf Möller]
11436
11437 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
11438 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
11439 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
11440 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
11441 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
11442 [Bodo Moeller]
11443
11444 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
11445 [Bodo Moeller]
11446
11447 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
11448 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
11449 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
11450 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
11451 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
11452 to use this.
11453
11454 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
11455 code.
11456 [Steve Henson]
11457
11458 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
11459 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
11460 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
11461 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
11462 [Steve Henson]
11463
11464 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
11465 [Ulf Möller]
11466
11467 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
11468 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
11469 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
11470 international characters are used.
11471
11472 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
11473 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
11474 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
11475 in ASN1 order.
11476 [Steve Henson]
11477
11478 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
11479 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
11480 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
11481 request.
11482
11483 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
11484 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
11485 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
11486 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
11487 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
11488 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
11489
11490 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
11491 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
11492 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
11493 be handled by the string table functions.
11494
11495 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
11496 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
11497 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
11498 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
11499 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
11500 types at all.
11501 [Steve Henson]
11502
11503 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
11504 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
11505 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
11506 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
11507 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
11508
11509 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
11510 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
11511 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
11512 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
11513 [Bodo Moeller]
11514
11515 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
11516 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
11517 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
11518 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
11519 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
11520 SHA1.
11521 [Andy Polyakov]
11522
11523 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
11524 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
11525 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
11526 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
11527 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
11528 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
11529 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
11530 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
11531
11532 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
11533 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
11534 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
11535 [Steve Henson]
11536
11537 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
11538 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
11539 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
11540 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
11541 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
11542 support to pkcs8 application.
11543 [Steve Henson]
11544
11545 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
11546 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
11547 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
11548 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
11549 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
11550 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
11551 [Bodo Moeller]
11552
11553 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
11554 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
11555 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
11556 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
11557 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
11558 consistency.
11559 [Bodo Moeller]
11560
11561 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
11562 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
11563 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
11564 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
11565 example.
11566 [Steve Henson]
11567
11568 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
11569 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
11570 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
11571 and any application specific purposes.
11572
11573 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
11574 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
11575 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
11576 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
11577 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
11578 if the certificate is self signed.
11579 [Steve Henson]
11580
11581 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
11582 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
11583 [Steve Henson]
11584
11585 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
11586 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
11587 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
11588 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
11589 [Steve Henson]
11590
11591 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
11592 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
11593 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
11594 Update documentation.
11595 [Steve Henson]
11596
11597 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
11598 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
11599 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
11600 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
11601 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
11602 [Steve Henson]
11603
11604 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
11605 for details.
11606 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
11607
11608 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
11609 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
11610 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
11611 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
11612 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
11613 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
11614 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
11615 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
11616 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
11617 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
11618
11619 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
11620
11621 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11622 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11623 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
11624 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
11625 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
11626
11627 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
11628 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
11629 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
11630 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
11631 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
11632 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
11633 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
11634 request additional information:
11635 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
11636 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
11637
11638 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
11639 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
11640 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
11641 options.
11642
11643 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
11644 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
11645
11646 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
11647 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
11648 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
11649
11650 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
11651 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
11652
11653 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
11654 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
11655 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
11656 algorithm.
11657 [Steve Henson]
11658
11659 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
11660 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
11661 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
11662
11663 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
11664 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
11665 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
11666 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
11667 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
11668 included in OpenSSL.
11669 [Steve Henson]
11670
11671 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
11672 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
11673 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
11674 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
11675 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
11676 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
11677 [Bodo Moeller]
11678
11679 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
11680 PKCS12 structure.
11681 [Steve Henson]
11682
11683 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
11684 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
11685 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
11686 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
11687 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
11688 structure.
11689 [Steve Henson]
11690
11691 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
11692 need initialising.
11693 [Steve Henson]
11694
11695 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
11696 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
11697 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
11698 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
11699 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
11700 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
11701 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
11702 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
11703 be maintained manually.
11704
11705 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
11706 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
11707 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
11708 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
11709 work because people forget to call this function]
11710 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11711 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11712 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11713 [Steve Henson]
11714
11715 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11716 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11717 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11718 should be discouraged from doing it.
11719 [Ben Laurie]
11720
11721 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11722 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11723 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11724 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11725 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11726 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11727 [Steve Henson]
11728
11729 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11730 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11731 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11732
11733 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11734 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11735 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11736
11737 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11738 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11739 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11740 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11741 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11742 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11743
11744 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11745 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11746 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11747
11748 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11749 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11750 and vice versa.
11751
11752 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11753 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11754 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11755 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11756 [Steve Henson]
11757
11758 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11759 [Steve Henson]
11760
11761 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11762 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11763 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11764 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11765 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11766 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11767 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11768 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11769 keys so we should be OK.
11770
11771 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11772 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11773 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11774 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11775 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11776 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11777 stay in the name of compatibility.
11778
11779 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11780 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11781 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11782
11783 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11784 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11785 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11786 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11787 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11788 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11789 supplied key).
11790 [Steve Henson]
11791
11792 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11793 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11794 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11795 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11796 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11797 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11798 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11799 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11800 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11801 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11802 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11803 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11804 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11805 [Steve Henson]
11806
11807 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11808 [Steve Henson]
11809
11810 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11811 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11812 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11813 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11814 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11815 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11816 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11817 openssl verify ss.pem
11818 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11819 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11820 is OK.
11821 [Steve Henson]
11822
11823 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11824 (and add it to external session representation).
11825 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11826 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11827 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11828 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11829 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11830 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11831 security holes.
11832 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11833
11834 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11835 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11836 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11837 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11838
11839 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11840 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11841 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11842 [Steve Henson]
11843
11844 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11845 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11846 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11847 code.
11848 [Steve Henson]
11849
11850 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11851 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11852 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11853
11854 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11855 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11856 certificate auxiliary information.
11857 [Steve Henson]
11858
11859 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11860 the 'enc' command.
11861 [Steve Henson]
11862
11863 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11864 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11865 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11866 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11867 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11868 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11869 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11870 [Richard Levitte]
11871
11872 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11873 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11874 [Steve Henson]
11875
11876 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11877 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11878 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11879 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11880 [Steve Henson]
11881
11882 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11883 [Steve Henson]
11884
11885 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11886 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11887 [Steve Henson]
11888
11889 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11890 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11891 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11892 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11893 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11894 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11895 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11896 using the new 'x509' options.
11897
11898 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11899 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11900 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11901 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11902 for all purposes.
11903 [Steve Henson]
11904
11905 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11906 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11907 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11908 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11909 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11910 [Mark Cox]
11911
11912 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11913 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11914 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11915 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11916 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11917 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11918 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11919 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11920 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11921 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11922 [Steve Henson]
11923
11924 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11925 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11926 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11927 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11928 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11929 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11930 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11931 [Steve Henson]
11932
11933 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11934 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11935 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11936 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11937 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11938 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11939 openssl.cnf for more info.
11940 [Steve Henson]
11941
11942 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11943 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11944 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11945 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11946 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11947 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11948 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11949 md should be large enough anyway.
11950 [Bodo Moeller]
11951
11952 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11953 for handling the random seed file.
11954
11955 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11956 ca,
11957 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11958 s_client,
11959 s_server,
11960 x509 (when signing).
11961 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11962 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11963 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11964
11965 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11966 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11967 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11968 that support '-rand'.
11969 [Bodo Moeller]
11970
11971 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11972 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11973 [Bodo Moeller]
11974
11975 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11976 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11977 [Bill Perry]
11978
11979 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11980 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11981 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11982 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11983 is suitable.
11984 [Steve Henson]
11985
11986 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11987 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11988 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11989 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11990 [Steve Henson]
11991
11992 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11993 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11994 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11995 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11996 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11997 print out all the purposes.
11998 [Steve Henson]
11999
12000 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
12001 functions.
12002 [Steve Henson]
12003
12004 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
12005 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
12006 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
12007 single function call.
12008 [Steve Henson]
12009
12010 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
12011 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
12012 [Andy Polyakov]
12013
12014 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
12015 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
12016 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
12017 [Steve Henson]
12018
12019 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
12020 when producing the local key id.
12021 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12022
12023 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
12024 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
12025 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
12026 "server.pem".
12027 [Steve Henson]
12028
12029 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
12030 a public key to be input or output. For example:
12031 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
12032 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
12033 [Steve Henson]
12034
12035 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
12036 in the message. This was handled by allowing
12037 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
12038 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
12039
12040 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
12041 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
12042 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
12043 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12044
12045 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
12046 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
12047 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
12048 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
12049 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
12050 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
12051 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
12052 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
12053 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
12054 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
12055 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
12056 trivial: move one line.
12057 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
12058
12059 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
12060 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
12061 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
12062 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
12063 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
12064 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
12065 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
12066 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
12067 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
12068 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
12069 with an event loop for example.
12070 [Steve Henson]
12071
12072 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
12073 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
12074 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
12075 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
12076 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
12077 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
12078 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
12079 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
12080 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
12081 [Steve Henson]
12082
12083 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
12084 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
12085 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
12086 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
12087 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
12088 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
12089 [Steve Henson]
12090
12091 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
12092 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
12093 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
12094 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
12095
12096 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
12097 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
12098 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
12099 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
12100 key generation.
12101 [Steve Henson]
12102
12103 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
12104 (still largely untested)
12105 [Bodo Moeller]
12106
12107 *) New function ASN1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
12108 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
12109 [Steve Henson]
12110
12111 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
12112 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
12113 [Steve Henson]
12114
12115 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
12116 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
12117 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
12118 [Bodo Moeller]
12119
12120 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
12121 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
12122 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
12123 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
12124 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
12125 [Steve Henson]
12126
12127 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
12128 [Andy Polyakov]
12129
12130 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
12131 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
12132 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
12133 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
12134 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
12135 in ca.
12136 [Steve Henson]
12137
12138 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
12139 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
12140 1.OU="Unit name 1"
12141 2.OU="Unit name 2"
12142 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
12143 [Steve Henson]
12144
12145 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
12146 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
12147 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
12148 are otherwise ignored at present.
12149 [Steve Henson]
12150
12151 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
12152 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
12153 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
12154 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
12155 copied until the next read.
12156 [Steve Henson]
12157
12158 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
12159 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
12160 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
12161 [Steve Henson]
12162
12163 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
12164 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
12165 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
12166 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
12167 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
12168 associated functions.
12169 [Steve Henson]
12170
12171 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
12172 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
12173 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
12174 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
12175 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
12176 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
12177 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
12178 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
12179 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
12180 memory BIOs.
12181 [Steve Henson]
12182
12183 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
12184 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
12185 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
12186 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
12187 [Bodo Moeller]
12188
12189 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
12190 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
12191 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
12192 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
12193 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
12194 functionality.
12195 [Steve Henson]
12196
12197 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
12198 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
12199 under Win32.
12200 [Steve Henson]
12201
12202 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
12203 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
12204 extensions to be obtained and added.
12205 [Steve Henson]
12206
12207 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
12208 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
12209 [Bodo Moeller]
12210
12211 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
12212
12213 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12214 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12215
12216 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
12217 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
12218
12219 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
12220 program.
12221 [Steve Henson]
12222
12223 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
12224 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
12225 DH parameters contain its length).
12226
12227 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
12228 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
12229 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
12230 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
12231 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
12232 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
12233 utter importance to use
12234 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
12235 or
12236 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
12237 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
12238 attacks may become possible!
12239 [Bodo Moeller]
12240
12241 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
12242 [Bodo Moeller]
12243
12244 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
12245 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
12246 [Steve Henson]
12247
12248 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
12249 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
12250 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
12251 or long name.
12252 [Steve Henson]
12253
12254 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
12255 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
12256 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
12257 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
12258 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
12259 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
12260 private key operations.
12261 [Steve Henson]
12262
12263 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
12264 [Andy Polyakov]
12265
12266 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
12267 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
12268 to
12269 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
12270 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
12271 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
12272 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
12273 the password callback is called.
12274 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
12275
12276 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
12277
12278 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
12279 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
12280 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
12281 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
12282 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
12283 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
12284 this will work.
12285
12286 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
12287 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
12288 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
12289 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
12290 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
12291 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
12292 [Bodo Moeller]
12293
12294 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
12295 [Andy Polyakov]
12296
12297 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
12298 delete an unused file.
12299 [Ulf Möller]
12300
12301 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
12302 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
12303 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
12304 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
12305 [Steve Henson]
12306
12307 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
12308 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
12309 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
12310 of an error.
12311 [Bodo Moeller]
12312
12313 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
12314 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
12315 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
12316
12317 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
12318 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
12319 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
12320 comparison" warnings.
12321 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
12322 [Steve Henson]
12323
12324 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
12325 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
12326 derived keys are printed to stderr.
12327 [Steve Henson]
12328
12329 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
12330 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
12331
12332 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
12333 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
12334
12335 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
12336 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
12337 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
12338
12339 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
12340 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
12341 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
12342 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
12343 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
12344 this bug.
12345 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
12346
12347 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
12348 The interface is as follows:
12349 Applications can use
12350 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
12351 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
12352 "off" is now the default.
12353 The library internally uses
12354 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
12355 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
12356 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
12357
12358 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
12359 even the default) are now avoided.
12360
12361 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
12362 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
12363 than just having a counter.
12364
12365 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
12366
12367 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
12368 extensions.
12369 [Bodo Moeller]
12370
12371 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
12372 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
12373 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
12374 Initial "mode" flags are:
12375
12376 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
12377 a single record has been written.
12378 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
12379 retries use the same buffer location.
12380 (But all of the contents must be
12381 copied!)
12382 [Bodo Moeller]
12383
12384 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
12385 worked.
12386
12387 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
12388 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
12389
12390 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
12391 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
12392 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
12393 [Steve Henson]
12394
12395 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
12396 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
12397 test programs.
12398 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
12399
12400 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
12401 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
12402 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
12403 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
12404 point to the end.
12405 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
12406 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
12407
12408 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
12409 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
12410 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
12411 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
12412 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
12413 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
12414 [Steve Henson]
12415
12416 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
12417 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
12418 necessary function names.
12419 [Steve Henson]
12420
12421 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
12422 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
12423 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
12424 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
12425 [Bodo Moeller]
12426
12427 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
12428 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
12429 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
12430 [Steve Henson]
12431
12432 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
12433 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
12434 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
12435 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
12436 such programs?)
12437 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
12438 need locks.
12439 [Bodo Moeller]
12440
12441 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
12442 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
12443 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
12444 [Bodo Moeller]
12445
12446 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
12447 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
12448 appropriate.
12449 [Bodo Moeller]
12450
12451 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
12452 for the encoded length.
12453 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
12454
12455 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
12456 [Steve Henson]
12457
12458 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
12459 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
12460 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
12461 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
12462 [Steve Henson]
12463
12464 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
12465 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
12466 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12467
12468 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
12469 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
12470 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
12471 unusual formatting.
12472 [Steve Henson]
12473
12474 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
12475 to use the new extension code.
12476 [Steve Henson]
12477
12478 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
12479 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
12480 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
12481 constant.
12482 [Steve Henson]
12483
12484 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
12485 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
12486 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
12487 [Bodo Moeller]
12488
12489 #if 0
12490 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
12491 [Ben Laurie]
12492 #else
12493 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
12494 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
12495 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
12496 #endif
12497
12498 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
12499 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
12500 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
12501 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
12502 [Ben Laurie]
12503
12504 *) DES library cleanups.
12505 [Ulf Möller]
12506
12507 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
12508 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
12509 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
12510 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
12511 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
12512 of v2.0.
12513 [Steve Henson]
12514
12515 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
12516 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
12517 [Bodo Moeller]
12518
12519 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
12520 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
12521 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
12522 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
12523 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
12524 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
12525 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
12526 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
12527 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
12528 [Steve Henson]
12529
12530 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
12531 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
12532 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
12533 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
12534 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
12535 value doesn't matter.
12536 [Steve Henson]
12537
12538 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
12539 support mutable.
12540 [Ben Laurie]
12541
12542 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
12543 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
12544 "linux-sparc" configuration.
12545 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
12546
12547 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
12548 [Ulf Möller]
12549
12550 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
12551 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
12552 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12553
12554 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
12555 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12556
12557 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
12558 [Ben Laurie]
12559
12560 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
12561 [Ben Laurie]
12562
12563 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
12564 [Ben Laurie]
12565
12566 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
12567 [Bodo Moeller]
12568
12569
12570 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
12571
12572 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
12573
12574 *) Updated some demos.
12575 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
12576
12577 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
12578 [Wu Zhigang]
12579
12580 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
12581 [Steve Henson]
12582
12583 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
12584 [Steve Henson]
12585
12586 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
12587 instead of using a fixed path.
12588 [Bodo Moeller]
12589
12590 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
12591 [Andy Polyakov]
12592
12593 *) Improvements for VMS support.
12594 [Richard Levitte]
12595
12596
12597 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
12598
12599 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
12600 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
12601 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12602
12603 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
12604 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
12605 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
12606 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
12607 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
12608 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
12609 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
12610 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
12611 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
12612 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
12613 [Steve Henson]
12614
12615 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
12616 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
12617 [Steve Henson]
12618
12619 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
12620 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
12621 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
12622 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
12623 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
12624
12625 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
12626 [Bodo Moeller]
12627
12628 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
12629 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
12630 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
12631 [Steve Henson]
12632
12633 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
12634 [Ben Laurie]
12635
12636 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
12637 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
12638 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
12639 key elements as negative integers.
12640 [Steve Henson]
12641
12642 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
12643 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12644
12645 *) VMS support.
12646 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
12647
12648 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
12649 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
12650 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
12651 [Steve Henson]
12652
12653 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
12654 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
12655 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
12656 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
12657 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
12658 [Bodo Moeller]
12659
12660 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
12661 [Ulf Möller]
12662
12663 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
12664 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
12665 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
12666 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12667
12668 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
12669 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
12670 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
12671
12672 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
12673 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
12674 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
12675 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
12676 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
12677 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
12678 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
12679 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
12680 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
12681
12682 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
12683 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
12684 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
12685 does not influence s as it used to.
12686
12687 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
12688 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
12689 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
12690 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
12691 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
12692 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
12693 [Bodo Moeller]
12694
12695 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
12696 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
12697 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
12698 key type.
12699 [Steve Henson]
12700
12701 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
12702 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
12703 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
12704 and 'x509').
12705 [Steve Henson]
12706
12707 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
12708 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
12709 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12710 extension option.
12711 [Steve Henson]
12712
12713 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12714 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12715 [Ben Laurie]
12716
12717 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12718 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12719
12720 *) Support Mingw32.
12721 [Ulf Möller]
12722
12723 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12724 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12725
12726 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12727 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12728
12729 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12730 [Ulf Möller]
12731
12732 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12733 [Anonymous]
12734
12735 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12736 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12737
12738 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12739 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12740 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12741 DER-encoded.)
12742 [Bodo Moeller]
12743
12744 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12745 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12746 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12747 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12748 now it really counts the depth.
12749 [Bodo Moeller]
12750
12751 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12752 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12753 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12754 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12755 didn't match the private key).
12756
12757 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12758 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12759 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12760 [Bodo Moeller]
12761
12762 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12763 [Ulf Möller]
12764
12765 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12766 David Harris.
12767 [Bodo Moeller]
12768
12769 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12770 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12771 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12772 [Bodo Moeller]
12773
12774 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12775 [Bodo Moeller]
12776
12777 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12778 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12779 such as /usr/local/bin.
12780 [Bodo Moeller]
12781
12782 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12783 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12784
12785 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12786 [Ulf Möller]
12787
12788 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12789 extension adding in x509 utility.
12790 [Steve Henson]
12791
12792 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12793 [Ulf Möller]
12794
12795 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12796 prototypes.
12797 [Steve Henson]
12798
12799 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12800 [Ulf Möller]
12801
12802 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12803 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12804 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12805 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12806 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12807 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12808 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
12809 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12810 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12811 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12812 [Steve Henson]
12813
12814 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12815 [Bodo Moeller]
12816
12817 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12818 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12819 [Bodo Moeller]
12820
12821 *) Fix some race conditions.
12822 [Bodo Moeller]
12823
12824 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12825 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12826 [Steve Henson]
12827
12828 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12829 [Ulf Möller]
12830
12831 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12832 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12833 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12834 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12835
12836 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12837 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12838
12839 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12840 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12841 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12842
12843 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12844 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12845
12846 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12847 [Ulf Möller]
12848
12849 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12850 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12851
12852 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12853 [Ulf Möller]
12854
12855 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12856 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12857
12858 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12859 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12860 [Steve Henson]
12861
12862 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12863 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12864 [Ben Laurie]
12865
12866 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12867 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12868 [Steve Henson]
12869
12870 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12871 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12872 [Steve Henson]
12873
12874 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12875 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12876 [Steve Henson]
12877
12878 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12879 support typesafe stack.
12880 [Steve Henson]
12881
12882 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12883 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12884
12885 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12886 old X509V3 handling code.
12887 [Steve Henson]
12888
12889 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12890 [Ulf Möller]
12891
12892 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12893 [Bodo Moeller]
12894
12895 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12896 [Ben Laurie]
12897
12898 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12899 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12900
12901 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12902 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12903 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12904 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12905 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12906 [Ben Laurie]
12907
12908 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12909 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12910 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12911 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12912 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12913
12914 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12915 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12916 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12917 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12918
12919 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12920 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12921 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12922 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12923
12924 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12925 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12926 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12927 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12928 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12929 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12930 [Bodo Moeller]
12931
12932 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12933 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12934 [Bodo Moeller]
12935
12936 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12937 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12938 [Ulf Möller]
12939
12940 *) Tweaks to Configure
12941 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12942
12943 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12944 yet...
12945 [Steve Henson]
12946
12947 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12948 [Ulf Möller]
12949
12950 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12951 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12952 [Ulf Möller]
12953
12954 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12955 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12956 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12957 [Bodo Moeller]
12958
12959 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12960 [Bodo Moeller]
12961
12962 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12963 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12964 [Steve Henson]
12965
12966 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12967 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12968 to library startup routines.
12969 [Steve Henson]
12970
12971 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12972 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12973 codes along the way.
12974 [Steve Henson]
12975
12976 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12977 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12978 objects to objects.h
12979 [Steve Henson]
12980
12981 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12982 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12983 [Steve Henson]
12984
12985 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12986 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12987
12988 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12989 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12990 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12991
12992 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12993 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12994 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12995
12996 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12997 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12998 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12999
13000
13001 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
13002
13003 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
13004 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
13005 [Ben Laurie]
13006
13007 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
13008 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
13009 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
13010 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
13011 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
13012
13013 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
13014 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
13015 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
13016 document.
13017 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13018
13019 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
13020 Malloc, Free.
13021 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
13022
13023 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
13024 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13025
13026 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
13027 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
13028 if someone would make that last step automatic.
13029 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
13030
13031 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
13032 [Ben Laurie]
13033
13034 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
13035 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
13036 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
13037 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
13038 [Steve Henson]
13039
13040 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
13041 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
13042 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
13043 [Steve Henson]
13044
13045 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
13046 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
13047 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
13048 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
13049 installed as `perl').
13050 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
13051
13052 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
13053 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
13054
13055 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
13056 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
13057 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
13058 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
13059 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
13060 [Steve Henson]
13061
13062 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
13063 [Ben Laurie]
13064
13065 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
13066 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
13067 is horrible: I feel ill....
13068 [Steve Henson]
13069
13070 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
13071 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
13072 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
13073 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
13074 [Steve Henson]
13075
13076 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
13077 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13078
13079 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
13080 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
13081 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
13082 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13083
13084 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
13085 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
13086 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
13087 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
13088 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
13089 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
13090 openssl_bio.xs.
13091 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13092
13093 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
13094 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
13095
13096 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
13097 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
13098
13099 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
13100 [Ben Laurie]
13101
13102 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
13103 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
13104 in CRLs.
13105 [Steve Henson]
13106
13107 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
13108 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
13109 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
13110 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
13111 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
13112 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
13113 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
13114 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
13115 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
13116 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
13117 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13118
13119 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
13120 [Ben Laurie]
13121
13122 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
13123 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
13124 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
13125 for linking it into DSOs.
13126 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13127
13128 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
13129 Fixed.
13130 [Ben Laurie]
13131
13132 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
13133 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
13134 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
13135 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
13136 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
13137 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13138
13139 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
13140 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
13141 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
13142 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
13143 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
13144 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
13145 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13146
13147 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
13148 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
13149 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
13150 encryption.
13151 [Ben Laurie]
13152
13153 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
13154 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
13155 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
13156 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
13157 [Steve Henson]
13158
13159 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
13160 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
13161 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
13162 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
13163 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
13164 field as blank.
13165 [Steve Henson]
13166
13167 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
13168 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
13169 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
13170 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
13171 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13172
13173 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
13174 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
13175 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
13176
13177 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
13178 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
13179
13180 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
13181 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
13182 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
13183 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
13184 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
13185 [Steve Henson]
13186
13187 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
13188 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
13189 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
13190 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
13191 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
13192 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
13193 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
13194 [Ben Laurie]
13195
13196 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
13197 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
13198 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
13199 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
13200 [Ben Laurie]
13201
13202 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
13203 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
13204
13205 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
13206 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
13207 [Steve Henson]
13208
13209 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
13210 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
13211 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
13212 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
13213 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
13214 (e.g. s_server).
13215 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
13216 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
13217 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
13218 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
13219 no way to reconfigure them.
13220 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
13221 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
13222 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
13223 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
13224 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
13225 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13226
13227 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
13228 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
13229 recognized by the users.
13230 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13231
13232 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
13233 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
13234 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
13235 already masked variable.
13236 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
13237
13238 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
13239 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
13240
13241 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
13242 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
13243 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
13244 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
13245
13246 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
13247 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
13248 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13249
13250 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
13251 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
13252 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
13253 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
13254 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
13255 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
13256 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
13257 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
13258 now, too.
13259 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13260
13261 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
13262 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
13263 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13264
13265 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
13266 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
13267 config file.
13268 [Steve Henson]
13269
13270 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
13271 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
13272
13273 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
13274 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
13275 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
13276 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
13277 [Ben Laurie]
13278
13279 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
13280 [Steve Henson]
13281
13282 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
13283 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13284
13285 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
13286 [Ben Laurie]
13287
13288 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
13289 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
13290 [Steve Henson]
13291
13292 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
13293 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
13294 [Steve Henson]
13295
13296 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
13297 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
13298 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
13299 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
13300 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
13301 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
13302 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
13303 Ben Laurie]
13304
13305 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
13306 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13307
13308 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
13309 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
13310 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
13311 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
13312 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13313
13314 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
13315 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
13316 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
13317 [Steve Henson]
13318
13319 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
13320 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
13321 an example.
13322 [Steve Henson]
13323
13324 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
13325 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
13326 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13327
13328 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
13329 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
13330 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
13331 build instructions.
13332 [Steve Henson]
13333
13334 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
13335 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
13336 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
13337 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
13338 [Steve Henson]
13339
13340 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
13341 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
13342 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
13343 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
13344 [Ben Laurie]
13345
13346 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
13347 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
13348 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
13349 so it wasn't spotted.
13350 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
13351
13352 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
13353 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
13354 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
13355 vectors if you have them.
13356 [Ben Laurie]
13357
13358 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
13359 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
13360 [Ben Laurie]
13361
13362 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
13363 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
13364 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
13365 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
13366 If you do a:
13367 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
13368 it will update them.
13369 [Steve Henson]
13370
13371 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
13372 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
13373 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
13374 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
13375 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
13376 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
13377 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
13378 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13379
13380 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
13381 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
13382 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
13383 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
13384 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
13385 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
13386 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
13387 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
13388 the crypto/md/ stuff).
13389 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13390
13391 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
13392 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
13393 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
13394 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
13395 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
13396 [Steve Henson]
13397
13398 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
13399 INTEGER code.
13400 [Steve Henson]
13401
13402 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
13403 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13404
13405 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
13406 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
13407
13408 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
13409 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
13410 [Ben Laurie]
13411
13412 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
13413 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
13414
13415 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
13416 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
13417
13418 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
13419 [Steve Henson]
13420
13421 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
13422 few typos.
13423 [Steve Henson]
13424
13425 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
13426 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
13427 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
13428 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13429
13430 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
13431 [Steve Henson]
13432
13433 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
13434 [Steve Henson]
13435
13436 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
13437 [Steve Henson]
13438
13439 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
13440 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
13441 [Steve Henson]
13442
13443 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
13444 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
13445 CA extensions.
13446 [Steve Henson]
13447
13448 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
13449 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
13450 [Steve Henson]
13451
13452 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
13453 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
13454 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
13455 [Steve Henson]
13456
13457 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
13458 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
13459 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
13460 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
13461 properly to be processed.
13462 [Steve Henson]
13463
13464 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
13465 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
13466 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
13467 [Ben Laurie]
13468
13469 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
13470 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
13471
13472 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
13473 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
13474 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
13475 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
13476 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
13477 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
13478 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
13479 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
13480 or delete all the .err files.
13481 [Steve Henson]
13482
13483 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
13484 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
13485 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
13486 to regenerate it if needed.
13487 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
13488 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
13489
13490 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
13491 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13492
13493 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
13494 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
13495 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
13496 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
13497 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
13498 [Steve Henson]
13499
13500 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
13501 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13502
13503 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
13504 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13505
13506 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
13507 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
13508 error, but didn't set one).
13509 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13510
13511 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
13512 [Ben Laurie]
13513
13514 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
13515 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
13516 [Steve Henson]
13517
13518 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
13519 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
13520
13521 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
13522 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
13523 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
13524 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
13525 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
13526 OID is not part of the table.
13527 [Steve Henson]
13528
13529 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
13530 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
13531 [Ben Laurie]
13532
13533 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
13534 [Ben Laurie]
13535
13536 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
13537 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
13538 was "1234").
13539 [Steve Henson]
13540
13541 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
13542 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
13543
13544 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
13545 NULL pointers.
13546 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13547
13548 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
13549 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13550
13551 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
13552 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13553
13554 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
13555 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13556
13557 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
13558 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
13559 [Ben Laurie]
13560
13561 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
13562 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
13563 [Steve Henson]
13564
13565 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
13566 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13567
13568 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
13569 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13570
13571 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
13572 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13573
13574 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
13575 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13576
13577 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
13578 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
13579 unused in the certificate verification process.
13580 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13581
13582 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
13583 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
13584 [Steve Henson]
13585
13586 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
13587 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
13588 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
13589
13590 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
13591 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
13592 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
13593 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
13594 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
13595
13596 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
13597 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
13598 [Steve Henson]
13599
13600 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
13601 [Steve Henson]
13602
13603 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
13604 [Paul Sutton]
13605
13606 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
13607 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
13608
13609 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
13610 [Ben Laurie]
13611
13612 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
13613 [Ben Laurie]
13614
13615 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
13616 [Ben Laurie]
13617
13618 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
13619 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
13620 other error libraries.
13621 [Steve Henson]
13622
13623 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
13624 [Steve Henson]
13625
13626 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
13627 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
13628 be read in.
13629 [Steve Henson]
13630
13631 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
13632 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
13633 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
13634 the new set of documentation files.
13635 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13636
13637 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
13638 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
13639 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
13640 number of arguments.
13641 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
13642
13643 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
13644 [Ben Laurie]
13645
13646 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
13647 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
13648 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13649
13650 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
13651 [Ben Laurie]
13652
13653 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
13654 nextstep
13655 ncr-scde
13656 unixware-2.0
13657 unixware-2.0-pentium
13658 sco5-cc.
13659 [Ben Laurie]
13660
13661 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
13662 before they are needed.
13663 [Ben Laurie]
13664
13665 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
13666 [Ben Laurie]
13667
13668
13669 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
13670
13671 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
13672 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
13673 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13674
13675 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
13676 [Paul Sutton]
13677
13678 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
13679 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
13680 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13681
13682 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
13683 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
13684 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
13685
13686 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
13687 when "ssleay" is still not found.
