3 _______________
4
5 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.9 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
8 in addition to the text details.
9 [Bodo Moeller]
10
11 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
12 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
13 handle several customised structures at all.
14 [Steve Henson]
15
16 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
17 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
18 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
19 [Steve Henson]
20
21 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
22 [Steve Henson]
23
24 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
25 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
26 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
27 [Steve Henson]
28
29 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
30 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
31 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
32 [Nils Larsch]
33
34 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
35 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
36 all fields.
37 [Steve Henson]
38
39 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
40 [Steve Henson]
41
42 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [XX xxx XXXX]
43
44 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
45 [Steve Henson]
46
47 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
48 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
49 [Nils Larsch]
50
51 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
52 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
53
54 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
55 [Nick Mathewson]
56
57 *) Extended Windows CE support.
58 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
59
60 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
61 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
64 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
65 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
66 smime utility.
67 [Steve Henson]
68
69 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
70
71 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
72 [Richard Levitte]
73
74 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
75 key into the same file any more.
76 [Richard Levitte]
77
78 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
79 [Andy Polyakov]
80
81 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
82 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
83
84 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
85 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
86 [Richard Levitte]
87
88 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
89 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
90 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
91 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
92 this only applies when building 'shared'.
93 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
94
95 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
96 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
97 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
98 [Steve Henson]
99
100 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
101 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
102 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
103 - add new function for parameter creation
104 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
105 BN_BLINDING parameters
106 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
107 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
108 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
109 threads.
110 [Nils Larsch]
111
112 *) Add support for DTLS.
113 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
114
115 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
116 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
117 [Walter Goulet]
118
119 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
120 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
121 [Nils Larsch]
122
123 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
124 the apps/openssl applications.
125 [Nils Larsch]
126
127 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
128 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
129 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
130 [Ben Laurie]
131
132 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
133 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
134
135 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
136 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
137
138 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
139 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
140 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
141 avoid this algorithm.)
142
143 [Bodo Moeller]
144
145 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
146 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
147 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
148 [Richard Levitte]
149
150 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
151 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
152 [Andy Polyakov]
153
154 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
155 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
156 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
157 pod file:
158
159 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
160
161 The blank line is mandatory.
162
163 [Steve Henson]
164
165 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
166 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
167 sources.
168 [Steve Henson]
169
170 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
171 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
172
173 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
174 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
175 to support policy checking and print out.
176 [Steve Henson]
177
178 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
179 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
180 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
181 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
182
183 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
184 [Geoff Thorpe]
185
186 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
187 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
188
189 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
190 implementation contributed by IBM.
191 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
192
193 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
194 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
195 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
196 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
197
198 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
199 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
200
201 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
202 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
203 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
204 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
205 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
206 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
207 [Steve Henson]
208
209 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
210 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
211 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
212 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
213 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
214 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
215 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
216 [Geoff Thorpe]
217
218 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
219 [Steve Henson]
220
221 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
222 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
223 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
224 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
225 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
226 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
227 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
228 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
229 [Steve Henson]
230
231 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
232 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
233 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
234 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
235 [Steve Henson]
236
237 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
238 syntax:
239
240 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
241 [Steve Henson]
242
243 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
244 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
245 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
246 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
247 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
248 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
249 BN_CTX's "bundling".
250 [Geoff Thorpe]
251
252 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
253 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
254 [Geoff Thorpe]
255
256 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
257 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
258 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
261 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
262 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
263 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
264 below).
265 [Geoff Thorpe]
266
267 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
268 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
269 [Richard Levitte]
270
271 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
272 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
273 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
274 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
275 [Geoff Thorpe]
276
277 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
278 initialised value as BN_new().
279 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
280
281 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
282 [Steve Henson]
283
284 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
285 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
286 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
287 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
288 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
289 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
290 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
291 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
292 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
293 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
294 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
295 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
296 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
297 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
298 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
299
300 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
301 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
302 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
303 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
304 [Geoff Thorpe]
305
306 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
307 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
308 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
309 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
310 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
311 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
312 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
313 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
314 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
315 [Geoff Thorpe]
316
317 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
318 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
319 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
320 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
321 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
322 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
323 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
324 [Geoff Thorpe]
325
326 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
327 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
328 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
329 these have been updated also.
330 [Geoff Thorpe]
331
332 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
333 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
334 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
335 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
336 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
337 functions.
338 [Steve Henson]
339
340 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
341 structure of type "other".
342 [Steve Henson]
343
344 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
345 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
346 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
347 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
348 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
349 situation in the script.
350 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
351
352 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
353 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
354 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
355 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
356 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
357 used as premaster secret.
358 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
359
360 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
361 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
362 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
363
364 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
365 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
366
367 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
368 control of the error stack.
369 [Richard Levitte]
370
371 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
372 [Richard Levitte]
373
374 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
375 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
376 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
377 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
378 [Richard Levitte]
379
380 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
381 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
382 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
383 [Richard Levitte]
384
385 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
386 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
387 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
388 a memory area.
389 [Richard Levitte]
390
391 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
392 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
393 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
394 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
395 [Richard Levitte]
396
397 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
398 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
399 the following flags are defined:
400
401 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
402 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
403 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
404 number.
405
406 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
407 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
408 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
409 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
410 returns zero.
411 [Richard Levitte]
412
413 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
414 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
415 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
416 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
417 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
418 [Richard Levitte]
419
420 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
421 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
422 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
423 [Richard Levitte]
424
425 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
426 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
427 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
428 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
429 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
430 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
431 [Richard Levitte]
432
433 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
434 req and dirName.
435 [Steve Henson]
436
437 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
438 [Steve Henson]
439
440 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
441 [Steve Henson]
442
443 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
444 [Steve Henson]
445
446 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
447 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
448 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
449 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
450 default implementation more easily.
451 [Geoff Thorpe]
452
453 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
454 in config files.
455 [Steve Henson]
456
457 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
458 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
459 [Richard Levitte]
460
461 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
462 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
463 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
464 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
465
466 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
467 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
468 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
469 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
470 [Steve Henson]
471
472 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
473 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
474 to do it.
475 [Richard Levitte]
476
477 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
478 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
479 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
480 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
481 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
482 scalar * generator).
483 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
484
485 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
486 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
487 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
488 correctly.
489 [Steve Henson]
490
491 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
492 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
493 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
494 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
495 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
496 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
497 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
498 linker additions, eg;
499 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
500 [Geoff Thorpe]
501
502 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
503 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
504 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
505 [Geoff Thorpe]
506
507 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
508 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
509 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
510 via PR#459)
511 [Lutz Jaenicke]
512
513 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
514 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
515 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
516 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
517 [Geoff Thorpe]
518
519 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
520 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
521 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
522 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
523 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
524 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
525 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
526 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
527 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
528 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.

530 Example for using the new callback interface:
531
532 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
533 void *my_arg = ...;
534 BN_GENCB my_cb;
535
536 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
537
538 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
539 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
540 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
541 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
542 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
543 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
544 */

546 [Geoff Thorpe]
547
548 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
549 available to TLS with the number defined in
550 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
551 [Richard Levitte]
552
553 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
554 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
555
556 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
557 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
558 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
559 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
560
561 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
562 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
563
564 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
565 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
566 well.
567 [Richard Levitte]
568
569 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
570 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
571 [Richard Levitte]
572
573 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
574 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
575 and a macro that behave like
576 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
577
578 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
579 [Nils Larsch]
580
581 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
582 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
583 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
584 if applicable.
585 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
586
587 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
588 [Bodo Moeller]
589
590 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
591 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
592 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
593 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
594 directory engines/.
595 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
596 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
597 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
598 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
599 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
600 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
601 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
602 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
603
604 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
605 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
606 [Richard Levitte]
607
608 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
609 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
610
611 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
612 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
613 files while avoiding the low level API.
614
615 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
616 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
617 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
618 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
619
620 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
621 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
622 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
623 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
624 instead of the low level API.
625 [Steve Henson]
626
627 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
628 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
629 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
630 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
631 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
632 PKCS#7 code.
633
634 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
635 down to the template encoder.
636 [Steve Henson]
637
638 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
639 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
640 [Bodo Moeller]
641
642 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
643 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
644 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
645 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
646
647 *) Add ECDH engine support.
648 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
649
650 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
651 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
652
653 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
654 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
655 [Bodo Moeller]
656
657 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
658 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
659 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
660 [Bodo Moeller]
661
662 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
663 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
664
665 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
666 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
667
668 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
669 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
670 New EC_METHOD:
671
672 EC_GF2m_simple_method
673
674 New API functions:
675
676 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
677 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
678 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
679 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
680 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
681 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
682
683 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
684 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
685 enable it).
686
687 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
688 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
689 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
690 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
691 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
692 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
693 various internal method names.)
694
695 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
696 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
697
698 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
699 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
700
701 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
702 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
703
704 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
705 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
706 methods are undefined.
707
708 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
709 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
710
711 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
712 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
713 length of the modulus.
714
715 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
716 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
717
718 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
719 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
720
721 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
722 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
723
724 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
725 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
726 used) in the following functions [macros]:
727
728 BN_GF2m_add
729 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
730 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
731 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
732 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
733 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
734 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
735 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
736 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
737 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
738
739 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
740 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
741
742 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
743 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
744 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
745 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
746 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
747 where
748 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
749 This applies to the following functions:
750
751 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
752 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
753 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
754 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
755 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
756 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
757 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
758 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
759 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
760 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
761
762 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
763
764 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
765 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
766
767 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
768
769 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
770 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
771 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
772 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
773 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
774
775 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
776 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
777
778 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
779 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
780 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
781
782 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
783 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
784
785 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
786 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
787 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
788 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
789 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
790
791 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
792 functions
793 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
794 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
795 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
796 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
797 These control ASN1 encoding details:
798 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
799 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
800 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
801 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
802 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
803 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
804 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
805
806 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
807 functions
808 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
809 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
810 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
811 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
812 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
813
814 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
815 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
816 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
817 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
818
819 *) Add functions
820 EC_POINT_point2bn()
821 EC_POINT_bn2point()
822 EC_POINT_point2hex()
823 EC_POINT_hex2point()
824 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
825 EC_POINT_oct2point().
826 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
827
828 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
829 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
830 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
831 EC_GROUP_get_order()
832 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
833 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
834 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
835 adding different types of curves.
836 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
837
838 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
839 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
840 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
841 [Bodo Moeller]
842
843 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
844 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
845
846 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
847 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
848 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
849 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
850
851 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
852
853 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
854 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
855
856 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
857 library. Most notably,
858 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
859 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
860 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
861 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
862 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
863 extracted before the specific public key;
864 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
865 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
866
867 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
868 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
869 function
870 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
871 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
872 EC_get_builtin_curves().
873 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
874 accessed via
875 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
876 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
877 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
878
879 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
880 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
881 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
882 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
883 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
884 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
885 differing sizes.
886 [Richard Levitte]
887
888 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [XX xxx XXXX]
889
890 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
891 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
892 [Steve Henson]
893
894 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
895 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
896 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
897 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
898 biased k.)
899 [Bodo Moeller]
900
901 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
902 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
903 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
904 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
905 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
906
907 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
908 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
909 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
910 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
911 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
912 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
913
914 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
915
916 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
917 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
918 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
919 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
920 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
921 [Bodo Moeller]
922
923 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
924 clients need.
925 [Steve Henson]
926
927 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
928 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
929 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
930 [Steve Henson]
931
932 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
933 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
934 structures constant.
935 [Steve Henson]
936
937 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
938
939 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
940 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
941 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
942 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
943 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
944 some needed definitions.
945 [Steve Henson]
946
947 *) Undo Cygwin change.
948 [Ulf Möller]
949
950 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
951 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
952 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
953 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
954 [Richard Levitte]
955
956 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
957
958 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
959 server and client random values. Previously
960 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
961 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
962
963 This change has negligible security impact because:
964
965 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
966 data.
967
968 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
969 handshake.
970
971 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
972 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
973 values.
974
975 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
976 to our attention.
977
978 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
979
980 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
981 [Ulf Möller]
982
983 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
984 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
985 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
986
987 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
988 [Steve Henson]
989
990 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
991 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
992 [Andy Polyakov]
993
994 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
995 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
996 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
997
998 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
999 [Steve Henson]
1000
1001 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
1002 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
1003 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
1004 certificates.
1005 [Steve Henson]
1006
1007 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
1008 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
1009 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
1010 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
1011
1012 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
1013 has chosen to ignore this fault)
1014 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
1015 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
1016 been given)
1017 [Richard Levitte]
1018
1019 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
1020
1021 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
1022 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
1023 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
1024 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
1025 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
1026 [Steve Henson]
1027
1028 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
1029 [Steve Henson]
1030
1031 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
1032 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
1033
1034 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
1035 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
1036 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
1037 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
1038 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
1039 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
1040 rather than being initialized to 1.
1041 [Steve Henson]
1042
1043 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
1044
1045 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
1046 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CAN-2004-0079)
1047 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
1048
1049 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
1050 (CAN-2004-0112)
1051 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
1052
1053 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1054 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1055 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1056 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1057 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1058 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1059 [Richard Levitte]
1060
1061 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
1062 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
1063 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
1064 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
1065 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
1066 for these cases.
1067 [Steve Henson]
1068
1069 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
1070 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
1071 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
1072 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
1073 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
1074 [Steve Henson]
1075
1076 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
1077 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
1078 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
1079 < 0.9.7.
1080 [Steve Henson]
1081
1082 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
1083 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
1084
1085 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
1086 [Steve Henson]
1087
1088 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
1089
1090 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
1091
1092 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
1093 invalid tags (CAN-2003-0543 and CAN-2003-0544).
1094
1095 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CAN-2003-0545).
1096
1097 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
1098 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
1099
1100 [Steve Henson]
1101
1102 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
1103 exiting on the first error in a request.
1104 [Steve Henson]
1105
1106 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
1107 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
1108 specifications.
1109 [Steve Henson]
1110
1111 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
1112 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
1113 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
1114 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
1115
1116 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
1117 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
1118 [Richard Levitte]
1119
1120 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
1121 blocks during encryption.
1122 [Richard Levitte]
1123
1124 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
1125 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
1126 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
1127 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
1128 certain size.
1129 [Steve Henson]
1130
1131 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
1132 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
1133 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
1134 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
1135 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
1136 parser.
1137 [Steve Henson]
1138
1139 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
1140
1141 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
1142 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
1143 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
1144 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
1145 [Bodo Moeller]
1146
1147 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
1148 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
1149 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
1150 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
1151 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
1152
1153 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
1154 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
1155 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
1156 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
1157 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
1158 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
1159 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
1160 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
1161 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
1162 [Bodo Moeller]
1163
1164 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
1165 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
1166 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
1167 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
1168 [Geoff Thorpe]
1169
1170 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
1171 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
1172 [Ulf Moeller]
1173
1174 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
1175
1176 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
1177 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
1178 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
1179 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
1180 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CAN-2003-0078)
1181
1182 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
1183 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
1184 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
1185
1186 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
1187 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
1188 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
1189 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
1190 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
1191
1192 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
1193 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
1194 used by default when no-err is given.
1195 [Richard Levitte]
1196
1197 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
1198 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
1199
1200 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
1201 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
1202 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
1203 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
1204 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
1205
1206 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
1207 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
1208 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
1209 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
1210
1211 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
1212
1213 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
1214
1215 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
1216
1217 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
1218 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
1219 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
1220 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
1221 root is omitted).
1222 [Steve Henson]
1223
1224 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
1225 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
1226
1227 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
1228 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
1229 [Steve Henson]
1230
1231 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1232 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1233 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
1234 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
1235 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1236
1237 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
1238 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
1239 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
1240 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
1241 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
1242 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
1243 followup to PR #377.
1244 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1245
1246 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
1247 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
1248 [Andy Polyakov]
1249
1250 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
1251 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
1252 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
1253 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
1254
1255 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
1256
1257 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
1258 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
1259
1260 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
1261 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
1262 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
1263 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
1264 client and server.
1265 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
1266 PR #377.
1267 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1268
1269 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
1270 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
1271 removed entirely.
1272 [Richard Levitte]
1273
1274 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
1275 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
1276 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
1277 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
1278 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
1279 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
1280 of libcrypto.
1281 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
1282 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
1283 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
1284 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
1285 have to be made anyway).
1286 [Richard Levitte]
1287
1288 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
1289 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
1290 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
1291 [Steve Henson]
1292
1293 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
1294 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
1295 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
1296 [Richard Levitte]
1297
1298 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
1299 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
1300 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
1301
1302 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
1303 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
1304 edit numbers of the version.
1305 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
1306
1307 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
1308 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
1309 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
1310
1311 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
1312 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1313
1314 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
1315 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
1316 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1317
1318 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
1319 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1320
1321 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
1322 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1323
1324 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
1325 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1326
1327 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
1328 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1329
1330 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
1331 overflows.
1332 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1333
1334 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
1335 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
1336 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1337
1338 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
1339 representations in a platform independent manner.
1340 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1341
1342 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
1343 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
1344 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1345
1346 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
1347 indents.
1348 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1349
1350 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
1351 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1352
1353 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
1354 full. Fixed.
1355 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1356
1357 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
1358 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
1359 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1360
1361 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
1362 unconditionally).
1363 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1364
1365 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
1366 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1367
1368 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
1369 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1370
1371 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
1372 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1373
1374 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
1375 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1376
1377 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
1378 CBCParameter.
1379 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1380
1381 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
1382 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1383
1384 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
1385 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1386
1387 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
1388 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
1389 exploitable.
1390 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1391
1392 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
1393 the 0.9.6 release series:
1394
1395 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
1396 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
1397 (CAN-2002-0657)
1398 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1399
1400 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
1401 [Richard Levitte]
1402
1403 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
1404 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
1405
1406 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
1407 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
1408
1409 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
1410 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
1411 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
1412 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
1413
1414 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
1415 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
1416 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
1417
1418 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
1419 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
1420 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
1421 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
1422
1423 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
1424 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
1425 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
1426 some local tweaks:
1427
1428 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
1429 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
1430 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
1431 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
1432 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
1433 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
1434 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
1435 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
1436 done
1437
1438 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
1439 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
1440 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
1441 [Richard Levitte]
1442
1443 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
1444 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
1445 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
1446 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
1447 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
1448
1449 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
1450 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
1451
1452 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
1453 error in AES-CFB decryption.
1454 [Richard Levitte]
1455
1456 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
1457 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
1458 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
1459 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
1460 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
1461 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
1462 [Steve Henson]
1463
1464 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
1465 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
1466 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
1467 [Steve Henson]
1468
1469 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
1470 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
1471 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1472
1473 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
1474 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
1475 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
1476 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
1477 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
1478 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
1479 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
1480 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1481
1482 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
1483 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
1484 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
1485 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
1486 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
1487 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
1488 [Steve Henson]
1489
1490 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
1491 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
1492 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
1493 declaration has been changed from
1494 int (*cb)()
1495 into
1496 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
1497 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
1498 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
1499 has been changed into
1500 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
1501
1502 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
1503 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
1504 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
1505
1506 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
1507 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
1508
1509 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
1510 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
1511 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
1512 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
1513 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
1514 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
1515 always load it have also been added.
1516 [Steve Henson]
1517
1518 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
1519 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
1520 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
1521
1522 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
1523
1524 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
1525 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
1526 because it couldn't be used for anything.
1527
1528 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
1529 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
1530 command line option can be used to specify an
1531 alternative file.
1532 [Steve Henson]
1533
1534 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
1535 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
1536 [Steve Henson]
1537
1538 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
1539 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
1540 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
1541 [Steve Henson]
1542
1543 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
1544 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
1545 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
1546 to work with the new engine framework.
1547 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
1548
1549 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
1550 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
1551 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
1552 to work with the new engine framework.
1553 [Richard Levitte]
1554
1555 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
1556 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
1557 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
1558
1559 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
1560 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
1561
1562 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
1563 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
1564 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
1565 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
1566 FORMAT_IISSGC.
1567 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
1568
1569 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
1570 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
1571
1572 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
1573 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
1574
1575 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
1576 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
1577 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
1578 [Ben Laurie]
1579
1580 *) Add new functions
1581 ERR_peek_last_error
1582 ERR_peek_last_error_line
1583 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
1584 These are similar to
1585 ERR_peek_error
1586 ERR_peek_error_line
1587 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
1588 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
1589 still in the error queue.
1590 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
1591
1592 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
1593 like:
1594 default_algorithms = ALL
1595 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
1596 [Steve Henson]
1597
1598 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
1599 [Steve Henson]
1600
1601 *) New experimental application configuration code.
1602 [Steve Henson]
1603
1604 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
1605 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
1606 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
1607 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
1608
1609 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
1610 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
1611
1612 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
1613 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
1614
1615 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
1616 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
1617 [Bodo Moeller]
1618
1619 *) New functions/macros
1620
1621 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
1622 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1623 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
1624 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
1625
1626 to request calling a callback function
1627
1628 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
1629 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
1630
1631 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
1632 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
1633 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
1634 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
1635 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
1636 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
1637 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
1638 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
1639 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
1640 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
1641
1642 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
1643 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
1644 [Bodo Moeller]
1645
1646 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
1647 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
1648 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
1649 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
1650 the configuration scripts.
1651
1652 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
1653 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
1654 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
1655
1656 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
1657 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
1658
1659 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
1660 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
1661 when reusing an existing buffer.
1662 [Bodo Moeller]
1663
1664 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
1665 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
1666 [Steve Henson]
1667
1668 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
1669 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
1670 [Ben Laurie]
1671
1672 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
1673 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
1674 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
1675 has the same effect.
1676 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
1677
1678 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
1679 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
1680 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
1681 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
1682 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
1683 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
1684 exception.
1685
1686 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
1687 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
1688 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
1689 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
1690
1691 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
1692 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
1693 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
1694 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
1695
1696 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
1697 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
1698 won't work.
1699
1700 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
1701 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
1702 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
1703 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
1704 default), and then completely removed.
1705 [Richard Levitte]
1706
1707 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
1708 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
1709 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
1710 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
1711 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
1712 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
1713 particular extension is supported.
1714 [Steve Henson]
1715
1716 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
1717 to retain compatibility with existing code.
1718 [Steve Henson]
1719
1720 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
1721 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
1722 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
1723 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
1724 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
1725 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
1726 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
1727 requires the destination to be valid.
1728
1729 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
1730 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
1731 [Steve Henson]
1732
1733 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
1734 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
1735 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
1736 [Bodo Moeller]
1737
1738 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
1739 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
1740
1741 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
1742 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
1743 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
1744 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
1745 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
1746 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
1747 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
1748 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
1749 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
1750 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
1751 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
1752 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
1753 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
1754 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
1755 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
1756 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
1757 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
1758 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
1759 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
1760 the new code.
1761 [Geoff Thorpe]
1762
1763 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
1764 [Steve Henson]
1765
1766 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
1767 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
1768 become part of libeay.num as well.
1769 [Richard Levitte]
1770
1771 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
1772 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
1773 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
1774 false once a handshake has been completed.
1775 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
1776 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
1777 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
1778 client has followed the request.)
1779 [Bodo Moeller]
1780
1781 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
1782 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
1783 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
1784 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
1785
1786 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
1787 more bits available for options that should not be part of
1788 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
1789 [Bodo Moeller]
1790
1791 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
1792 [Steve Henson]
1793
1794 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
1795 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
1796 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
1797 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1798
1799 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
1800 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
1801 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1802
1803 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
1804 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
1805 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
1806 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
1807 [Geoff Thorpe]
1808
1809 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
1810 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
1811 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
1812 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
1813 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
1814 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
1815 [Geoff Thorpe]
1816
1817 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
1818 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
1819 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
1820 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
1821 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
1822 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
1823 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
1824 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
1825 [Geoff Thorpe]
1826
1827 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
1828 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
1829 [Geoff Thorpe]
1830
1831 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
1832 [Ben Laurie]
1833
1834 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
1835 md_data void pointer.
1836 [Ben Laurie]
1837
1838 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
1839 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
1840 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
1841 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
1842 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
1843 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
1844 [Ben Laurie]
1845
1846 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
1847 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
1848 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
1849 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
1850 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
1851 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
1852 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
1853 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
1854 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
1855 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
1856 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
1857 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
1858 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
1859 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
1860 rather than letting it slide.
1861
1862 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
1863 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
1864 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
1865 [Geoff Thorpe]
1866
1867 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
1868 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
1869 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
1870 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
1871 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
1872 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
1873 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
1874 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
1875 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
1876 [Geoff Thorpe]
1877
1878 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
1879 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
1880 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
1881 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
1882 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
1883
1884 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
1885 [Geoff Thorpe]
1886
1887 *) Add EVP test program.
1888 [Ben Laurie]
1889
1890 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
1891 [Ben Laurie]
1892
1893 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
1894 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
1895 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
1896 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
1897 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
1898 [Steve Henson]
1899
1900 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
1901 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
1902 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
1903 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
1904 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
1905 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
1906 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
1907
1908 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
1909 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
1910 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
1911 Usage example:
1912
1913 EVP_MD_CTX md;
1914
1915 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
1916 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
1917 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
1918 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
1919 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
1920
1921 [Ben Laurie]
1922
1923 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
1924 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
1925 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
1926 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
1927 anyway): E.g.,
1928
1929 des_key_schedule ks;
1930
1931 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
1932 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
1933
1934 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
1935 [Ben Laurie]
1936
1937 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
1938 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
1939 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
1940 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
1941 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
1942 functions prevents this.
1943 [Steve Henson]
1944
1945 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
1946 [Ben Laurie]
1947
1948 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
1949 correct _ecb suffix.
1950 [Ben Laurie]
1951
1952 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
1953 revocation information is handled using the text based index
1954 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
1955 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
1956 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
1957 [Steve Henson]
1958
1959 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
1960 [Richard Levitte]
1961
1962 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
1963 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
1964 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
1965 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
1966
1967 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
1968 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
1969
1970 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
1971 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
1972 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
1973 via Richard Levitte]
1974
1975 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
1976 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
1977 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
1978 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
1979 [Geoff Thorpe]
1980
1981 *) Speed up EVP routines.
1982 Before:
1983 encrypt
1984 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes

1997 [Ben Laurie]
1998
1999 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
2000 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
2001
2002 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
2003 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
2004 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
2005 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
2006 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
2007 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
2008 [Steve Henson]
2009
2010 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
2011 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
2012 [Richard Levitte]
2013
2014 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
2015 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
2016 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
2017 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
2018
2019 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
2020 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
2021 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
2022 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
2023 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
2024 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
2025 callback.
2026 [Richard Levitte]
2027
2028 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
2029 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
2030 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
2031 and interrupts/cancellations.
2032 [Richard Levitte]
2033
2034 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
2035 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
2036 [Steve Henson]
2037
2038 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
2039 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
2040 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
2041
2042 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
2043 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
2044 kind of callback.
2045 [Richard Levitte]
2046
2047 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
2048 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
2049 than this minimum value is recommended.
2050 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2051
2052 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
2053 that are easily reachable.
2054 [Richard Levitte]
2055
2056 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
2057 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
2058
2059 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
2060
2061 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
2062 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
2063 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
2064 needed for static libraries under Win32.
2065 [Steve Henson]
2066
2067 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
2068 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
2069 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
2070 [Steve Henson]
2071
2072 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
2073 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
2074 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
2075 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
2076 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
2077 internally such as S/MIME.
2078
2079 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
2080 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
2081 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
2082
2083 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
2084 applications.
2085 [Steve Henson]
2086
2087 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
2088 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
2089 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
2090 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
2091
2092 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
2093
2094 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
2095
2096 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
2097 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
2098 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
2099 handling.
2100 [Steve Henson]
2101
2102 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
2103 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
2104 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
2105 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
2106 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
2107 a window system and the like.
2108 [Richard Levitte]
2109
2110 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
2111 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
2112 [Geoff]
2113
2114 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
2115 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
2116 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
2117 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
2118 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
2119 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
2120 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
2121 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
2122 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
2123 ENGINE structure.
2124 [Geoff]
2125
2126 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
2127 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
2128 tag cache.
2129 [Steve Henson]
2130
2131 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
2132 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
2133 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
2134 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
2135 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
2136 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
2137 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
2138 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
2139 [Geoff]
2140
2141 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
2142 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
2143 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
2144 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
2145 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
2146 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
2147 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
2148 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
2149 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
2150 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
2151 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
2152 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
2153 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
2154 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
2155 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
2156 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
2157 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
2158 [Geoff]
2159
2160 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
2161 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
2162 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
2163 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
2164 internal engine_int.h header.
2165 [Geoff]
2166
2167 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
2168 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
2169 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
2170 modify their own ones).
2171 [Geoff]
2172
2173 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
2174 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
2175 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
2176 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
2177 later on via ctrl() commands.
2178 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
2179 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
2180 structural references.
2181 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
2182 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
2183 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
2184 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
2185 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
2186 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
2187 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
2188 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
2189 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
2190 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
2191 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
2192 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
2193 [Geoff]
2194
2195 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
2196 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
2197 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
2198 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
2199 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
2200 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
2201 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
2202 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
2203 [Bodo Moeller]
2204
2205 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
2206 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
2207 [Steve Henson]
2208
2209 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
2210 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
2211 [Steve Henson]
2212
2213 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
2214 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
2215 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
2216 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
2217 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
2218 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
2219 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
2220 [Steve Henson]
2221
2222 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
2223 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
2224 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
2225 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
2226 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
2227
2228 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
2229 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
2230 generator).
2231 [Bodo Moeller]
2232
2233 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
2234
2235 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
2236 operations and provides various method functions that can also
2237 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
2238
2239 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
2240 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
2241
2242 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
2243 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
2244 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
2245
2246 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
2247 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
2248
2249 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
2250 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
2251
2252 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
2253
2254 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
2255 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
2256 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
2257 [Bodo Moeller]
2258
2259 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
2260 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
2261 [Richard Levitte]
2262
2263 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
2264 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
2265 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
2266 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
2267 is 40 of more characters long.
2268 [Steve Henson]
2269
2270 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
2271 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
2272 pointers.
2273 [Steve Henson]
2274
2275 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
2276 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
2277 [Bodo Moeller]
2278
2279 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
2280 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
2281 might.
2282 [Steve Henson]
2283
2284 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
2285
2286 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
2287 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
2288
2289 ASN1 error codes
2290 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
2291 ...
2292 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
2293 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
2294 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
2295 ...
2296 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
2297 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
2298
2299 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
2300 [Bodo Moeller]
2301
2302 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
2303 suffices.
2304 [Bodo Moeller]
2305
2306 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
2307 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
2308 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
2309 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
2310 and
2311 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
2312
2313 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
2314 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
2315
2316 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
2317 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
2318 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
2319 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
2320 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
2321 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
2322
2323 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
2324 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
2325
2326 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
2327 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
2328
2329 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
2330 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
2331
2332 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
2333 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
2334 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
2335 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
2336
2337 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
2338 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
2339
2340 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
2341 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
2342
2343 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
2344 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
2345 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
2346 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
2347 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
2348 [Richard Levitte]
2349
2350 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
2351 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
2352 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
2353 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
2354 [Steve Henson]
2355
2356 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
2357 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
2358 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
2359 trust settings.
2360 [Steve Henson]
2361
2362 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
2363 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
2364 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
2365 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
2366 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
2367 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
2368 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
2369 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
2370 ocsp utility.
2371 [Steve Henson]
2372
2373 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
2374 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
2375 [Steve Henson]
2376
2377 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
2378 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
2379 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
2380 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
2381 [Steve Henson]
2382
2383 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
2384 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
2385 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
2386 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
2387 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
2388 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
2389 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
2390 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
2391 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
2392 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
2393 [Steve Henson]
2394
2395 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
2396 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
2397 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
2398 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
2399 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
2400 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
2401 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
2402 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
2403
2404 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
2405 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
2406 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
2407 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
2408 [Richard Levitte]
2409
2410 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
2411 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
2412 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
2413 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
2414 opensslconf.h.
2415 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
2416 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
2417 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
2418 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
2419 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
2420 what is available.
2421 [Richard Levitte]
2422
2423 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
2424 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
2425 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
2426 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
2427 auto incremented.
2428 [Steve Henson]
2429
2430 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
2431 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
2432 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
2433 [Steve Henson]
2434
2435 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
2436 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
2437 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
2438 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
2439 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
2440 [Steve Henson]
2441
2442 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
2443 [Steve Henson]
2444
2445 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
2446 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
2447 option to ocsp utility.
2448 [Steve Henson]
2449
2450 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
2451 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
2452 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
2453 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
2454 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
2455 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
2456 the request is nonce-less.
2457 [Steve Henson]
2458
2459 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
2460 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
2461 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
2462 [Bodo Moeller]
2463
2464 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
2465 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
2466 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
2470 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
2471 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
2472 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
2473 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
2474 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2475
2476 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
2477 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
2478 appear to exist.
2479 [Steve Henson]
2480
2481 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
2482 additional certificates supplied.
2483 [Steve Henson]
2484
2485 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
2486 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
2487 signature against.
2488 [Richard Levitte]
2489
2490 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
2491 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
2492 AES OIDs.
2493
2494 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
2495 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
2496 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
2497 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
2498 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
2499 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
2500 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
2501 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
2502 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2503
2504 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
2505 request to response.
2506 [Steve Henson]
2507
2508 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
2509 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
2510 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
2511 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
2512 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
2513 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
2514 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
2515 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
2516 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
2517 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
2518 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
2519 [Steve Henson]
2520
2521 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
2522 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
2523 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
2524 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
2525 [Steve Henson]
2526
2527 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
2528 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
2529
2530 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
2531 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
2532 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
2533 [Steve Henson]
2534
2535 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
2536 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
2537 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
2538 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
2539 <support@securenetterm.com>]
2540
2541 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
2542 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
2543 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
2544 [Steve Henson]
2545
2546 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
2547 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
2548 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
2549 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
2550 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
2551 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
2552 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
2553 <support@securenetterm.com>]
2554
2555 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
2556 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
2557 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
2558 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
2559 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
2560 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
2561 [Steve Henson]
2562
2563 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
2564 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
2565 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
2566 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
2567 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
2568 printout format cleaned up.
2569 [Steve Henson]
2570
2571 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
2572 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
2573 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
2574 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
2575 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
2576 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
2577 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
2578 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
2579 [Steve Henson]
2580
2581 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
2582 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
2583 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
2584 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
2585 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
2586 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
2587 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
2588 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
2589 [Steve Henson]
2590
2591 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
2592 extensions from a separate configuration file.
2593 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
2594 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
2595 section to use.
2596 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
2597
2598 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
2599 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
2600 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
2601 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
2602 [Steve Henson]
2603
2604 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
2605 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
2606 the given serial number (according to the index file).
2607 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
2608 in the index file.
2609 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
2610
2611 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
2612 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
2613 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
2614 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
2615
2616 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
2617 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
2618
2619 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
2620 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
2621 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
2622 [Steve Henson]
2623
2624 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
2625 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
2626 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
2627 [Bodo Moeller]
2628
2629 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
2630 file name and line number information in additional arguments
2631 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
2632 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
2633 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
2634 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
2635 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
2636 functions are provided:
2637
2638 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
2639 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
2640 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
2641 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
2642
2643 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
2644 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
2645 extended allocation function is enabled.
2646 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
2647 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
2648 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
2649
2650 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
2651 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
2652 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
2653 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
2654 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
2655 [Geoff Thorpe]
2656
2657 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
2658 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
2659 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
2660 be queried.
2661 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
2662 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
2663 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
2664 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2665
2666 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
2667 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
2668 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
2669 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
2670 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
2671 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
2672 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
2673 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
2674 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
2675 [Richard Levitte]
2676
2677 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
2678 provide utility functions which an application needing
2679 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
2680 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
2681 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
2682
2683 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
2684 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
2685 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
2686 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
2687 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
2688 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
2689 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
2690 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
2691 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
2692
2693 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
2694 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
2695 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
2696 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
2697 [Steve Henson]
2698
2699 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
2700 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
2701 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
2702 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
2703 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
2704 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
2705 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
2706 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
2707 will be added elsewhere.
2708 [Steve Henson]
2709
2710 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
2711 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
2712 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
2713 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
2714 [Steve Henson]
2715
2716 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
2717 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
2718 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
2719 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
2720 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
2721 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
2722 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
2723 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
2724 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
2725 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
2726 to produce the required SET OF.
2727 [Steve Henson]
2728
2729 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
2730 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
2731 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
2732 [Richard Levitte]
2733
2734 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
2735 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
2736 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
2737 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
2738 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
2739 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
2740 [Steve Henson]
2741
2742 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
2743 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
2744 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
2745 [Steve Henson]
2746
2747 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
2748 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
2749 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
2750 [Richard Levitte]
2751
2752 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
2753 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
2754 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
2755 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
2756 code will still work when these eventually go away.
2757 [Steve Henson]
2758
2759 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
2760 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
2761 [Steve Henson]
2762
2763 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
2764 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
2765 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
2766 certifcates and CRLs.
2767 [Steve Henson]
2768
2769 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
2770 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
2771 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
2772 [Steve Henson]
2773
2774 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
2775 entries for variables.
2776 [Steve Henson]
2777
2778 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
2779 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
2780 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
2781 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
2782 [Bodo Moeller]
2783
2784 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
2785 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
2786 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
2787 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
2788 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
2789 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
2790 [Bodo Moeller]
2791
2792 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
2793 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
2794
2795 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
2796 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
2797 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
2798 [Steve Henson]
2799
2800 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
2801 print routines.
2802 [Steve Henson]
2803
2804 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
2805 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
2806 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
2807 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
2808 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
2809 order did not reflect the encoded order.
2810 [Steve Henson]
2811
2812 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
2813 [Steve Henson]
2814
2815 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
2816 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
2817 for now but they will eventually go away.
2818 [Steve Henson]
2819
2820 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
2821 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
2822 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
2823 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
2824 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
2825 has also been converted to the new form.
2826 [Steve Henson]
2827
2828 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
2829 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
2830 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
2831 for negative moduli.
2832 [Bodo Moeller]
2833
2834 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
2835 of not touching the result's sign bit.
2836 [Bodo Moeller]
2837
2838 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
2839 set.
2840 [Bodo Moeller]
2841
2842 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
2843 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
2844 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
2845 type-specific callbacks.
2846 [Geoff Thorpe]
2847
2848 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
2849 RFC 2712.
2850 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
2851 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
2852
2853 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
2854 in sections depending on the subject.
2855 [Richard Levitte]
2856
2857 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
2858 Windows.
2859 [Richard Levitte]
2860
2861 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
2862 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
2863 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
2864 be handled deterministically).
2865 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
2866
2867 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
2868 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
2869 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
2870 [Bodo Moeller]
2871
2872 *) New function BN_kronecker.
2873 [Bodo Moeller]
2874
2875 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
2876 positive unless both parameters are zero.
2877 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
2878 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
2879 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
2880 [Bodo Moeller]
2881
2882 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
2883 sign of the number in question.
2884
2885 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
2886
2887 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
2888 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
2889 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
2890 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
2891 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
2892 [Bodo Moeller]
2893
2894 *) New function BN_swap.
2895 [Bodo Moeller]
2896
2897 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
2898 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
2899 results on negative inputs.
2900 [Bodo Moeller]
2901
2902 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
2903 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
2904 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
2905 [Bodo Moeller]
2906
2907 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
2908 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
2909 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
2910 and add new functions:
2911
2912 BN_nnmod
2913 BN_mod_sqr
2914 BN_mod_add
2915 BN_mod_add_quick
2916 BN_mod_sub
2917 BN_mod_sub_quick
2918 BN_mod_lshift1
2919 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
2920 BN_mod_lshift
2921 BN_mod_lshift_quick
2922
2923 These functions always generate non-negative results.
2924
2925 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
2926 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
2927
2928 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
2929 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
2930 be reduced modulo m.

2934 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
2935 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
2936 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
2937
2938 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
2939 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
2940 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
2941 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
2942 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
2943 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
2944 differing sizes.
2945 [Richard Levitte]
2946 #endif
2947
2948 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
2949 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
2950 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
2951 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
2952 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
2953
2954 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
2955 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
2956 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
2957 cause any problems.
2958 [Bodo Moeller]
2959
2960 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
2961 [Richard Levitte]
2962
2963 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
2964 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
2965 [Richard Levitte]
2966
2967 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
2968 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
2969 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
2970 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
2971 time)
2972 [Richard Levitte]
2973
2974 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
2975 [Richard Levitte]
2976
2977 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
2978 [Richard Levitte]
2979
2980 *) Add the following functions:
2981
2982 ENGINE_load_cswift()
2983 ENGINE_load_chil()
2984 ENGINE_load_atalla()
2985 ENGINE_load_nuron()
2986 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
2987
2988 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
2989 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
2990 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
2991 libraries unless it's really needed.
2992
2993 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
2994 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
2995 declarations (they differed!).
2996 [Richard Levitte]
2997
2998 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
2999 [Richard Levitte]
3000
3001 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
3002 [Richard Levitte]
3003
3004 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
3005 [Bodo Moeller]
3006
3007 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
3008 identity, and test if they are actually available.
3009 [Richard Levitte]
3010
3011 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
3012 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
3013 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3014
3015 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
3016 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
3017 [Richard Levitte]
3018
3019 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
3020 [Richard Levitte]
3021
3022 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
3023 [Richard Levitte]
3024
3025 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
3026 [Ben Laurie]
3027
3028 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
3029 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
3030 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
3031
3032 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
3033 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
3034 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
3035 different shared library filenames on each system.
3036 [Geoff Thorpe]
3037
3038 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
3039 [Richard Levitte]
3040
3041 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
3042 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
3043 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
3044 of two sections.
3045 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
3046
3047 *) NCONF changes.
3048 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
3049 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
3050 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
3051 binary backward compatibility.
3052 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
3053 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
3054 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
3055 LDAP server.
3056 [Richard Levitte]
3057
3058 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
3059 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
3060 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
3061 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
3062 this case.
3063 [Steve Henson]
3064
3065 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
3066 [Ben Laurie]
3067
3068 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
3069 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
3070 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
3071 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
3072 set.
3073 [Steve Henson]
3074
3075 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
3076 [Richard Levitte]
3077
3078 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
3079
3080 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
3081 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CAN-2004-0079)
3082 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3083
3084 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
3085
3086 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
3087
3088 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
3089 certain ASN.1 tags (CAN-2003-0851)
3090 [Steve Henson]
3091
3092 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
3093
3094 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
3095
3096 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
3097 invalid tags (CAN-2003-0543 and CAN-2003-0544).
3098
3099 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
3100 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
3101
3102 [Steve Henson]
3103
3104 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
3105 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
3106 specifications.
3107 [Steve Henson]
3108
3109 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
3110 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
3111 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
3112 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
3113
3114 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
3115 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
3116 [Richard Levitte]
3117
3118 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
3119
3120 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
3121 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
3122 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
3123 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
3124 [Bodo Moeller]
3125
3126 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
3127 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
3128 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
3129 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
3130 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
3131
3132 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
3133 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
3134 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
3135 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
3136 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
3137 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
3138 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
3139 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
3140 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
3141 [Bodo Moeller]
3142
3143 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
3144
3145 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
3146 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
3147 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
3148 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
3149 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CAN-2003-0078)
3150
3151 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
3152 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
3153 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
3154
3155 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
3156
3157 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
3158 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
3159 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
3160 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
3161 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
3162 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
3163 [Geoff Thorpe]
3164
3165 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
3166 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
3167 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
3168 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
3169 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
3170 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3171
3172 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
3173 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
3174 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
3175
3176 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
3177 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
3178 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
3179 EVP_cleanup().
3180 [Richard Levitte]
3181
3182 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
3183 being properly terminated.
3184 [Richard Levitte]
3185
3186 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
3187 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
3188 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
3189 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
3190
3191 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
3192 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
3193 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
3194 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
3195 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
3196 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
3197 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
3198 change.
3199 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
3200
3201 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
3202 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
3203 [Bodo Moeller]
3204
3205 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
3206 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
3207 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
3208 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
3209 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
3210 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
3211 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
3212 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
3213
3214 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
3215 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
3216 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
3217 (see [openssl.org #212]).
3218 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3219
3220 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
3221 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
3222 [Steve Henson]
3223
3224 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
3225
3226 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
3227 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
3228 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
3229
3230 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
3231
3232 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
3233 and get fix the header length calculation.
3234 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
3235 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
3236 Steve Henson]
3237
3238 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
3239 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
3240 assertions could call abort()).
3241 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
3242
3243 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
3244
3245 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
3246 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
3247 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
3248 supplied buffer.
3249 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
3250
3251 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
3252 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
3253 by the selection routines (PR #130).
3254 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3255
3256 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
3257 [Nils Larsch]
3258
3259 *) New option
3260 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
3261 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
3262 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
3263
3264 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
3265 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
3266 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
3267 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
3268 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
3269 applications.
3270 [Bodo Moeller]
3271
3272 *) Changes in security patch:
3273
3274 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
3275 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
3276 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
3277 F30602-01-2-0537.
3278
3279 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
3280 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
3281 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
3282 supplied buffer. (CAN-2002-0659)
3283 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
3284
3285 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
3286 happen in practice.
3287 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3288
3289 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
3290 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CAN-2002-0655)
3291 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
3292
3293 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
3294 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CAN-2002-0656)
3295 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3296
3297 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
3298 supply an oversized client master key. (CAN-2002-0656)
3299 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3300
3301 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
3302
3303 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
3304 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
3305 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
3306
3307 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
3308 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3309
3310 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
3311 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
3312 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
3313 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
3314 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
3315 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
3316 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3317
3318 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
3319 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
3320 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
3321 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
3322 [Bodo Moeller]
3323
3324 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
3325 [Bodo Moeller]
3326
3327 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
3328 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
3329 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
3330 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
3331 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
3332 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3333
3334 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
3335 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
3336 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
3337 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
3338 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
3339 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3340
3341 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
3342 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
3343 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
3344 BN_generate_prime().)
3345
3346 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
3347 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
3348 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
3349 better.
3350 [Bodo Moeller]
3351
3352 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
3353 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
3354 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3355
3356 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
3357 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
3358 when using non-blocking I/O.
3359 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
3360
3361 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
3362 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
3363
3364 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
3365 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
3366 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3367
3368 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
3369 configuration for the versions before that.
3370 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
3371
3372 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
3373 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
3374 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
3375 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
3376 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3377
3378 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
3379 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
3380 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
3381 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3382
3383 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
3384 value is 0.
3385 [Richard Levitte]
3386
3387 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
3388 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
3389 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
3390
3391 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
3392 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
3393
3394 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
3395 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
3396 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
3397 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
3398 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
3399 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
3400 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
3401 session cache.
3402
3403 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
3404 using a local variable.
3405 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
3406
3407 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
3408 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
3409 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
3410
3411 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
3412 [Richard Levitte]
3413
3414 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
3415 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
3416
3417 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
3418 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
3419 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
3420
3421 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
3422
3423 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
3424 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
3425 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
3426 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
3427 [Bodo Moeller]
3428
3429 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
3430 present.
3431 [Steve Henson]
3432
3433 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
3434 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
3435 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
3436 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
3437 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
3438
3439 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
3440 returns early because it has nothing to do.
3441 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
3442
3443 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3444 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
3445 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
3446
3447 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3448 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
3449 (Use engine 'keyclient')
3450 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
3451
3452 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
3453 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
3454 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
3455 modules).
3456 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
3457
3458 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3459 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
3460 from 0.9.7.
3461 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
3462
3463 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3464 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
3465 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
3466 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
3467
3468 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3469 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
3470 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
3471 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
3472
3473 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
3474 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
3475
3476 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
3477 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
3478 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
3479 [Bodo Moeller]
3480
3481 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
3482 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
3483 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
3484 become invalid.
3485 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
3486
3487 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
3488 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
3489 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
3490 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
3491 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
3492 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
3493 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
3494 [Bodo Moeller]
3495
3496 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
3497 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
3498 one of the SSL handshake functions.
3499 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
3500
3501 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
3502 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
3503 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
3504 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
3505 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
3506 the client will at least see that alert.
3507 [Bodo Moeller]
3508
3509 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
3510 correctly.
3511 [Bodo Moeller]
3512
3513 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
3514 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
3515 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
3516
3517 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
3518 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
3519 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
3520 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
3521 HelloRequest.
3522
3523 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
3524 before just sending a HelloRequest.
3525 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
3526
3527 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
3528 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
3529 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
3530 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
3531 may leak via logfiles.)
3532
3533 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
3534 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
3535 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
3536 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
3537 the legal range.
3538 [Bodo Moeller]
3539
3540 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
3541 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
3542 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3543
3544 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
3545 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
3546 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
3547 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
3548 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
3549 [Bodo Moeller]
3550
3551 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
3552 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
3553
3554 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
3555 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
3556 followed by modular reduction.
3557 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
3558
3559 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
3560 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
3561 [Bodo Moeller]
3562
3563 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
3564 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
3565 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
3566 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
3567 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3568
3569 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
3570 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3571
3572 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
3573 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
3574 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3575
3576 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
3577 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
3578 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
3579 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
3580 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
3581 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
3582 automatically.
3583 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
3584
3585 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
3586 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
3587 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
3588 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
3589 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
3590
3591 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
3592 [Andy Polyakov]
3593
3594 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
3595 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
3596 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
3597 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
3598 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
3599 to allow the necessary settings.
3600 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3601
3602 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
3603 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
3604 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
3605 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
3606 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3607
3608 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
3609 dh->length and always used
3610
3611 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
3612
3613 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
3614 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
3615 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
3616 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
3617 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
3618 dh->length.
3619
3620 So switch back to
3621
3622 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
3623
3624 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
3625 otherwise.
3626 [Bodo Moeller]
3627
3628 *) In
3629
3630 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
3631 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
3632 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
3633 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
3634
3635 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
3636 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
3637 always reject numbers >= n.
3638 [Bodo Moeller]
3639
3640 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
3641 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
3642 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
3643 variable) is not atomic.
3644 [Bodo Moeller]
3645
3646 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
3647 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
3648 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
3649 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
3650
3651 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
3652 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
3653
3654 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
3655 little-endian MIPS.
3656 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
3657
3658 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
3659 [Richard Levitte]
3660
3661 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
3662
3663 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
3664 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
3665 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
3666 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
3667 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
3668 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
3669 to traverse all of 'state'.
3670
3671 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
3672 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
3673 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
3674
3675 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
3676 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
3677
3678 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
3679 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
3680 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
3681 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
3682 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
3683 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
3684 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
3685 further strengthens the PRNG.
3686 [Bodo Moeller]
3687
3688 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
3689 [Andy Polyakov]
3690
3691 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
3692 an error message in this case.
3693 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3694
3695 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
3696 [Steve Henson]
3697
3698 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
3699 positive and less than q.
3700 [Bodo Moeller]
3701
3702 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
3703 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
3704 that itself.
3705 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
3706
3707 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
3708 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
3709 [Bodo Moeller]
3710
3711 *) Fix OAEP check.
3712 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
3713
3714 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
3715 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
3716 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
3717 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
3718 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
3719 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
3720 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
3721 paper.)
3722
3723 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
3724 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
3725 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
3726 detect the supposedly ignored error.
3727
3728 Both problems are now fixed.
3729 [Bodo Moeller]
3730
3731 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
3732 (previously it was 1024).
3733 [Bodo Moeller]
3734
3735 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
3736 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
3737 [Steve Henson]
3738
3739 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
3740 [Steve Henson]
3741
3742 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
3743 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
3744 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
3745 [Steve Henson]
3746
3747 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
3748 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
3749 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
3750 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
3751 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
3752 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
3753 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
3754 environment variables.
3755
3756 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
3757 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
3758 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
3759 [Bodo Moeller]
3760
3761 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
3762 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
3763 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
3764 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
3765 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
3766 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
3767 [Bodo Moeller]
3768
3769 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
3770 versions of 'test'.
3771 [Bodo Moeller]
3772
3773 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
3774
3775 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
3776 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
3777
3778 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
3779 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
3780 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
3781 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
3782 CygWin.
3783 [Richard Levitte]
3784
3785 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
3786 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
3787 amount of data available.
3788 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
3789 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3790
3791 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
3792 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
3793 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
3794 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
3795 [Bodo Moeller]
3796
3797 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
3798 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
3799 and UnixWare.
3800 [Richard Levitte]
3801
3802 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
3803 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
3804 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
3805 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
3806 [Ulf Moeller]
3807
3808 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
3809 [Andy Polyakov]
3810
3811 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
3812 [Richard Levitte]
3813
3814 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
3815 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
3816 [Steve Henson]
3817 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3818
3819 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
3820 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
3821 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
3822 (but broken) behaviour.
3823 [Steve Henson]
3824
3825 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
3826 it when found.
3827 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
3828
3829 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
3830 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
3831 [Bodo Moeller]
3832
3833 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
3834 did not exist.
3835 [Bodo Moeller]
3836
3837 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
3838 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
3839
3840 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
3841 [Richard Levitte]
3842
3843 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
3844 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
3845 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
3846
3847 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
3848 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
3849 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
3850 [Steve Henson]
3851
3852 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
3853 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
3854 [Ulf Moeller]
3855
3856 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
3857 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
3858
3859 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
3860
3861 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
3862
3863 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
3864 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
3865 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
3866 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
3867 [Bodo Moeller]
3868
3869 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
3870 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3871
3872 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
3873 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
3874 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
3875
3876 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
3877 was empty.
3878 [Steve Henson]
3879 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3880
3881 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
3882 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
3883 but the code is actually correct.
3884 [Steve Henson]
3885
3886 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
3887 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
3888 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
3889 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
3890 and leaves the highest bit random.
3891 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
3892
3893 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
3894 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
3895 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
3896 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
3897 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
3898 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
3899 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
3900 [Bodo Moeller]
3901
3902 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
3903 [Ulf Moeller]
3904
3905 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
3906 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
3907 [Steve Henson]
3908
3909 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
3910 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
3911 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
3912 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
3913 headers.
3914 [Richard Levitte]
3915
3916 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
3917 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
3918 and break the signature.
3919 [Steve Henson]
3920 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3921
3922 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
3923 DH ciphersuites.
3924 [Steve Henson]
3925
3926 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
3927 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
3928 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
3929 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
3930 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
3931 [Bodo Moeller]
3932
3933 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
3934 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
3935
3936 *) ./config script fixes.
3937 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
3938
3939 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
3940 [Bodo Moeller]
3941
3942 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
3943 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
3944 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
3945 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
3946 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
3947
3948 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
3949 call failed, free the DSA structure.
3950 [Bodo Moeller]
3951
3952 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
3953 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
3954 [Steve Henson]
3955
3956 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
3957 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
3958 when writing a 32767 byte record.
3959 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
3960
3961 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
3962 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
3963
3964 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
3965 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
3966 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
3967 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
3968 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
3969
3970 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
3971 [Bodo Moeller]
3972
3973 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
3974 [Ulf Möller]
3975
3976 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
3977 [Ulf Möller]
3978
3979 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
3980 [Bodo Moeller]
3981
3982 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
3983 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
3984 [Bodo Moeller]
3985
3986 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
3987 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
3988 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
3989 result of the server certificate verification.)
3990 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3991
3992 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
3993 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
3994 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
3995 [Bodo Moeller]
3996
3997 *) Fix SSL_peek:
3998 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
3999 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
4000 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
4001 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
4002 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
4003 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
4004 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
4005 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
4006 [Bodo Moeller]
4007
4008 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
4009 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
4010 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
4011 happening the other way round.
4012 [Geoff Thorpe]
4013
4014 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
4015 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
4016 [Bodo Moeller]
4017
4018 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
4019 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
4020 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
4021 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
4022 [Richard Levitte]
4023
4024 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
4025 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
4026
4027 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
4028
4029 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
4030 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
4031 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
4032 that.
4033
4034 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
4035
4036 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
4037
4038 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
4039 static ones.
4040 [Richard Levitte]
4041
4042 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
4043
4044 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
4045 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
4046 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
4047 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
4048 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
4049
4050 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
4051 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
4052 matter what.
4053 [Richard Levitte]
4054
4055 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
4056 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4057
4058 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
4059
4060 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
4061 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
4062 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
4063 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
4064 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
4065 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
4066 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
4067 by the Finished messages.
4068 [Bodo Moeller]
4069
4070 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
4071 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
4072
4073 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
4074 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
4075 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
4076 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
4077 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
4078 appropriately.
4079 [Steve Henson]
4080
4081 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
4082 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
4083 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
4084 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
4085 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
4086 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
4087 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
4088 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
4089 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
4090 together.
4091 [Steve Henson]
4092
4093 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
4094 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
4095 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
4096 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
4097
4098 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
4099 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
4100 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
4101 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
4102 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
4103 the answer.
4104
4105 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
4106 been tested well enough.
4107 [Richard Levitte]
4108
4109 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
4110 it can return incorrect results.
4111 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
4112 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
4113 [Bodo Moeller]
4114
4115 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
4116 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
4117 include zero length content when signing messages.
4118 [Steve Henson]
4119
4120 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
4121 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
4122 [Bodo Möller]
4123
4124 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
4125 [Richard Levitte]
4126
4127 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
4128 wrong sign.
4129 [Ulf Möller]
4130
4131 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
4132 packages. The default package contains applications, application
4133 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
4134 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
4135 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
4136 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
4137 [Richard Levitte]
4138
4139 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
4140 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
4141
4142 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
4143 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
4144
4145 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
4146 random number < q in the DSA library.
4147 [Ulf Möller]
4148
4149 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
4150 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
4151 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
4152 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
4153 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
4154 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
4155 just makes things more complicated.)
4156 [Bodo Moeller]
4157
4158 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
4159 from EGD.
4160 [Ben Laurie]
4161
4162 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
4163 work better on such systems.
4164 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
4165
4166 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
4167 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
4168 keyid to the certificates aux info.
4169 [Steve Henson]
4170
4171 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
4172 if there was more than one signature.
4173 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
4174
4175 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
4176 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
4177 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
4178 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
4179 [Richard Levitte]
4180
4181 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
4182 rather than always using the current time.
4183 [Steve Henson]
4184
4185 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
4186 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
4187 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
4188 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
4189 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
4190 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
4191
4192 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
4193 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
4194
4195 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
4196
4197 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
4198 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
4199 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
4200 the same hash value.
4201
4202 As a result various functions (which were all internal
4203 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
4204 structure. This will break anything that messed round
4205 with X509_STORE internally.
4206
4207 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
4208 exact match, rather than just subject name.
4209
4210 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
4211 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
4212 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
4213 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
4214 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
4215 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
4216 entirely (maybe later...).
4217
4218 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
4219
4220 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
4221 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
4222 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
4223 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
4224 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
4225 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
4226 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
4227 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
4228
4229 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
4230 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
4231
4232 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
4233 to customise the verify behaviour.
4234 [Steve Henson]
4235
4236 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
4237 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
4238 [Steve Henson]
4239
4240 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
4241 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
4242 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
4243 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
4244 request is improperly encoded.
4245 [Steve Henson]
4246
4247 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
4248 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
4249 BIO_write(b, ...).
4250
4251 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
4252 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
4253
4254 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
4255 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
4256 words set to zero.)
4257 [Bodo Moeller]
4258
4259 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
4260 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
4261 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
4262 [Bodo Moeller]
4263
4264 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
4265 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
4266 BIO/fp routines also added.
4267 [Steve Henson]
4268
4269 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
4270 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
4271
4272 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
4273 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
4274 demos/state_machine.
4275 [Ben Laurie]
4276
4277 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
4278 generation and verification.
4279 [Steve Henson]
4280
4281 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
4282 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
4283 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
4284 encode and decode it manually.
4285 [Steve Henson]
4286
4287 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
4288 compile under VC++.
4289 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
4290
4291 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
4292 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
4293 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
4294 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
4295
4296 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
4297 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
4298 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
4299 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
4300 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
4301 [Steve Henson]
4302
4303 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
4304 [Richard Levitte]
4305
4306 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
4307 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
4308 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
4309
4310 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
4311 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
4312 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
4313 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
4314 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
4315 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
4316 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
4317 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
4318
4319 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
4320 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
4321
4322 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
4323
4324 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
4325 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
4326 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
4327
4328 [Richard Levitte]
4329
4330 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
4331 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
4332 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
4333 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
4334 [Richard Levitte]
4335
4336 *) MD4 implemented.
4337 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
4338
4339 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
4340 [Richard Levitte]
4341
4342 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
4343 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
4344 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
4345 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
4346 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
4347 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
4348 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
4349 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
4350 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
4351 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
4352 short or long names are found.
4353 [Steve Henson]
4354
4355 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
4356 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
4357
4358 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
4359 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
4360 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
4361 version rollback attacks was not effective.
4362
4363 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
4364 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
4365 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
4366 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
4367 [Bodo Moeller]
4368
4369 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
4370 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
4371 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
4372 [Richard Levitte]
4373
4374 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
4375 these print out strings and name structures based on various
4376 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
4377 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
4378 to allow the various flags to be set.
4379 [Steve Henson]
4380
4381 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
4382 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
4383 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
4384 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
4385 dates to be checked.
4386 [Steve Henson]
4387
4388 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
4389 negative public key encodings) on by default,
4390 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
4391 [Steve Henson]
4392
4393 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
4394 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
4395 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
4396 [Steve Henson]
4397
4398 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
4399 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
4400 [Bodo Moeller]
4401
4402 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
4403 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
4404 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
4405 are always statically linked for now, but there are
4406 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
4407 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
4408 [Richard Levitte]
4409
4410 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
4411 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
4412 Random Numbers.
4413 [Ulf Möller]
4414
4415 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
4416 DSA key.
4417 [Steve Henson]
4418
4419 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
4420 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
4421 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
4422 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
4423 form signing output easier to verify.
4424 [Steve Henson]
4425
4426 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
4427 [Steve Henson]
4428
4429 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
4430 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
4431 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
4432 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
4433 are needed because all other string types have virtually
4434 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
4435 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
4436 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
4437 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
4438 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
4439 [Steve Henson]
4440
4441 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
4442
4443 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
4444 the syntax given in objects.README.
4445 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
4446 obj_mac.h.
4447 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
4448 obj_mac.h.
4449
4450 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
4451 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
4452 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
4453 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
4454 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
4455 consistent name changes.
4456 [Richard Levitte]
4457
4458 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
4459 [Bodo Moeller]
4460
4461 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
4462 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
4463 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
4464 environment variable, or the default random state file.
4465 [Richard Levitte]
4466
4467 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
4468 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
4469 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
4470 of safestack.h .
4471 [Steve Henson]
4472
4473 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
4474 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
4475 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
4476 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
4477 [Steve Henson]
4478
4479 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
4480 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
4481 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
4482 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
4483 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
4484 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
4485 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
4486 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
4487 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
4488 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
4489 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
4490 [Steve Henson]
4491
4492 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
4493 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
4494 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
4495 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
4496 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
4497 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
4498 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
4499 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
4500 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
4501 algorithm to openssl-dev.
4502 [Steve Henson]
4503
4504 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
4505 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
4506 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
4507 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
4508
4509 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
4510 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
4511 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
4512 omit any duplicate addresses.
4513 [Steve Henson]
4514
4515 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
4516 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
4517 [Bodo Moeller]
4518
4519 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
4520 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
4521 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
4522 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
4523 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
4524 [Bodo Moeller]
4525
4526 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
4527 software:
4528 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
4529 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
4530 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
4531 Free => OPENSSL_free
4532 [Richard Levitte]
4533
4534 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
4535 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
4536 [Bodo Moeller]
4537
4538 *) CygWin32 support.
4539 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
4540
4541 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
4542 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
4543 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
4544 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
4545 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
4546 approach.
4547 [Geoff Thorpe]
4548
4549 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
4550 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
4551 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
4552 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
4553 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
4554 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
4555 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
4556 [Geoff Thorpe]
4557
4558 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
4559 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
4560 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
4561 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
4562 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
4563 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
4564 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
4565 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
4566 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
4567 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
4568 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
4569 [Bodo Moeller]
4570
4571 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
4572 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
4573 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
4574 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
4575 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
4576
4577 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
4578 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
4579 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
4580 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
4581 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
4582
4583 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
4584 ciphers.
4585
4586 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
4587 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
4588 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
4589 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
4590
4591 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
4592
4593 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
4594 of macros.
4595
4596 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
4597 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
4598 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
4599 flags.
4600
4601 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
4602 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
4603 any installed hardware versions can.
4604 [Steve Henson]
4605
4606 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
4607 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
4608 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
4609 number.
4610 [Bodo Moeller]
4611
4612 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
4613 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
4614 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
4615 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
4616 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
4617
4618 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
4619 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
4620 [Steve Henson]
4621
4622 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
4623 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
4624 [Richard Levitte]
4625
4626 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
4627 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
4628 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
4629 features.
4630 [Steve Henson]
4631
4632 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
4633 [Ulf Möller]
4634
4635 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
4636 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
4637 but no ssl client purpose.
4638 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
4639
4640 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
4641 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
4642 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
4643 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
4644 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
4645 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
4646 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
4647 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
4648 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
4649 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
4650 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
4651 [Steve Henson]
4652
4653 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
4654 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
4655 be obtained from the error queue.
4656 [Bodo Moeller]
4657
4658 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
4659 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
4660 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
4661 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
4662 [Bodo Moeller]
4663
4664 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
4665 [Ulf Möller]
4666
4667 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
4668 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
4669 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
4670 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
4671 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
4672 [Geoff Thorpe]
4673
4674 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
4675 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
4676 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
4677 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
4678 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
4679 [Geoff Thorpe]
4680
4681 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
4682 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
4683 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
4684 may not be NULL.
4685 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
4686
4687 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
4688 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
4689 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
4690 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
4691 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
4692 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
4693 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
4694 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
4695 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
4696 or "the configuration storage API"...
4697
4698 The new configuration file reading functions are:
4699
4700 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
4701 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
4702
4703 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
4704
4705 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
4706
4707 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
4708 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
4709 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
4710 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
4711 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
4712 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
4713 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
4714
4715 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
4716 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
4717 [Richard Levitte]
4718
4719 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
4720 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
4721 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
4722 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
4723 [Bodo Moeller]
4724
4725 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
4726 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
4727 them in a portable way.
4728 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
4729
4730 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
4731
4732 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
4733
4734 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
4735 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
4736
4737 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
4738 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
4739 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
4740 <attili@amaxo.com>]
4741
4742 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
4743 was larger than the MD block size.
4744 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
4745
4746 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
4747 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
4748 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
4749 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
4750 components.
4751 [Steve Henson]
4752
4753 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
4754 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
4755 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
4756
4757 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
4758 discouraged.
4759 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
4760
4761 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
4762 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
4763 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
4764 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
4765 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
4766 Additional arguments are always ignored.
4767
4768 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
4769 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
4770
4771 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
4772 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
4773 [Bodo Moeller]
4774
4775 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
4776 [Bodo Moeller]
4777
4778 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
4779 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
4780 its own key.
4781 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
4782 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
4783 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
4784 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
4785 [Bodo Moeller]
4786
4787 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
4788 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
4789 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
4790 does not suppress any output.
4791 [Richard Levitte]
4792
4793 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
4794 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
4795 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
4796 with all the associated security issues.
4797
4798 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
4799 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
4800 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
4801 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
4802 use the value in the default purpose.
4803 [Steve Henson]
4804
4805 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
4806 and fix a memory leak.
4807 [Steve Henson]
4808
4809 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
4810 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
4811 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
4812 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
4813 [Bodo Moeller]
4814
4815 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
4816 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
4817 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
4818 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
4819 [Bodo Moeller]
4820
4821 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
4822 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
4823 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
4824 [Bodo Moeller]
4825
4826 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
4827 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
4828 [Bodo Moeller]
4829
4830 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
4831 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
4832 which was free.
4833 [Steve Henson]
4834
4835 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
4836 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
4837 [Bodo Moeller]
4838
4839 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
4840 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
4841 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
4842 [Bodo Moeller]
4843
4844 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
4845 number generation fails.
4846 [Bodo Moeller]
4847
4848 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
4849 [Bodo Moeller]
4850
4851 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
4852 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
4853
4854 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
4855 [Ulf Möller]
4856
4857 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
4858 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
4859
4860 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
4861 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
4862
4863 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
4864
4865 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
4866 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
4867 [Steve Henson]
4868
4869 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
4870 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
4871
4872 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
4873 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
4874 [Ulf Möller]
4875
4876 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
4877 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
4878 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
4879 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
4880 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
4881 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
4882
4883 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
4884 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
4885 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
4886 for example.
4887 [Steve Henson]
4888
4889 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
4890 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
4891 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
4892 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
4893 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
4894 counter, some don't.)
4895 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
4896 counters or duplicate objects.
4897 [Steve Henson]
4898
4899 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
4900 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
4901 [Steve Henson]
4902
4903 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
4904 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
4905 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
4906
4907 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
4908 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
4909 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
4910 or -rand.
4911 [Ulf Möller]
4912
4913 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
4914 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
4915 [Steve Henson]
4916
4917 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
4918 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
4919 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
4920 cipher list.
4921 [Steve Henson]
4922
4923 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
4924 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
4925 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
4926 [Steve Henson]
4927
4928 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
4929 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
4930 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
4931 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
4932 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
4933 should work without changes.
4934 [Richard Levitte]
4935
4936 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
4937 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
4938 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
4939 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
4940 must be defined. E.g.,
4941 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
4942 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
4943 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
4944 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
4945
4946 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
4947 record layer.
4948 [Bodo Moeller]
4949
4950 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
4951 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
4952 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
4953 [Steve Henson]
4954
4955 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
4956 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
4957 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
4958 request header lines. Some software needs this.
4959 [Steve Henson]
4960
4961 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
4962 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
4963 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
4964 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
4965 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
4966 is prompted for as usual.
4967 [Steve Henson]
4968
4969 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
4970 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
4971 autodetect the card and use it if present.
4972 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
4973
4974 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
4975 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
4976 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
4977 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
4978 [Steve Henson]
4979
4980 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
4981 [Andy Polyakov]
4982
4983 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
4984 of seed file.
4985 [Steve Henson]
4986
4987 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
4988 [Bodo Moeller]
4989
4990 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
4991 [Steve Henson]
4992
4993 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
4994 bits.
4995 [Ulf Möller]
4996
4997 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
4998 [Ulf Möller]
4999
5000 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
5001 [Andy Polyakov]
5002
5003 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
5004 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
5005 [Ulf Möller]
5006
5007 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
5008 options to produce them.
5009 [Steve Henson]
5010
5011 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
5012 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
5013 [Ulf Möller]
5014
5015 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
5016 for p == 0.
5017 [Ulf Möller]
5018
5019 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
5020 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
5021 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
5022 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
5023 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
5024 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
5025 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
5026 [Steve Henson]
5027
5028 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
5029 [Steve Henson]
5030
5031 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
5032 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
5033 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
5034 [Bodo Moeller]
5035
5036 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
5037 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
5038
5039 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
5040 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
5041 [Ulf Möller]
5042
5043 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
5044 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
5045 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
5046 has already seen).
5047 [Bodo Moeller]
5048
5049 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
5050 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
5051
5052 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
5053 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
5054 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
5055 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
5056 generation becomes much faster.
5057
5058 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
5059 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
5060 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
5061 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
5062 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
5063 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
5064 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
5065 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
5066 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
5067 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
5068 [Bodo Moeller]
5069
5070 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
5071 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
5072 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
5073 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
5074 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
5075 trial division stage.
5076 [Bodo Moeller]
5077
5078 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
5079 as ASN1_TIME.
5080 [Steve Henson]
5081
5082 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
5083 [Steve Henson]
5084
5085 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
5086 [Ulf Möller]
5087
5088 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
5089 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
5090 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
5091 the comments.
5092 [Ulf Möller]
5093
5094 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
5095 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
5096 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
5097 [Bodo Moeller]
5098
5099 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
5100 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
5101 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
5102 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
5103
5104 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
5105 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
5106 [Steve Henson]
5107
5108 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
5109 [Ulf Möller]
5110
5111 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
5112 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
5113 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
5114 Rabin-Miller iterations.
5115 [Ulf Möller]
5116
5117 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
5118 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
5119 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
5120 [Ulf Möller]
5121
5122 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
5123 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
5124 (instead of parameters) in future.
5125 [Steve Henson]
5126
5127 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
5128 when a new cipher list is set.
5129 [Steve Henson]
5130
5131 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
5132 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
5133 wrong.
5134
5135 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
5136 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
5137 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
5138
5139 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
5140 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
5141 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
5142 an error is flagged.
5143
5144 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
5145 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
5146 the readability was also increased :-)
5147 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
5148
5149 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
5150 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
5151 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
5152 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
5153 as the root CA.
5154 [Steve Henson]
5155
5156 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
5157 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
5158 [Steve Henson]
5159
5160 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
5161 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
5162 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
5163 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
5164 instead.
5165
5166 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
5167 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
5168 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
5169 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
5170 because they handle more complex structures.)
5171 [Steve Henson]
5172
5173 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
5174 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
5175 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
5176 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
5177
5178 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
5179 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
5180 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
5181 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
5182 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
5183 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
5184 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
5185 [Ulf Möller]
5186
5187 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
5188 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
5189 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
5190 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
5191 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
5192 [Bodo Moeller]
5193
5194 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
5195 [Bodo Moeller]
5196
5197 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
5198 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
5199 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
5200 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
5201 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
5202 to use this.
5203
5204 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
5205 code.
5206 [Steve Henson]
5207
5208 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
5209 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
5210 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
5211 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
5212 [Steve Henson]
5213
5214 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
5215 [Ulf Möller]
5216
5217 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
5218 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
5219 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
5220 international characters are used.
5221
5222 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
5223 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
5224 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
5225 in ASN1 order.
5226 [Steve Henson]
5227
5228 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
5229 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
5230 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
5231 request.
5232
5233 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
5234 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
5235 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
5236 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
5237 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
5238 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
5239
5240 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
5241 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
5242 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
5243 be handled by the string table functions.
5244
5245 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
5246 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
5247 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
5248 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
5249 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
5250 types at all.
5251 [Steve Henson]
5252
5253 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
5254 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
5255 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
5256 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
5257 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
5258
5259 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
5260 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
5261 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
5262 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
5263 [Bodo Moeller]
5264
5265 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
5266 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
5267 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
5268 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
5269 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
5270 SHA1.
5271 [Andy Polyakov]
5272
5273 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
5274 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
5275 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
5276 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
5277 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
5278 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
5279 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
5280 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
5281
5282 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
5283 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
5284 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
5285 [Steve Henson]
5286
5287 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
5288 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
5289 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
5290 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
5291 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
5292 support to pkcs8 application.
5293 [Steve Henson]
5294
5295 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
5296 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
5297 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
5298 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
5299 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
5300 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
5301 [Bodo Moeller]
5302
5303 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
5304 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
5305 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
5306 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
5307 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
5308 consistency.
5309 [Bodo Moeller]
5310
5311 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
5312 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
5313 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
5314 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
5315 example.
5316 [Steve Henson]
5317
5318 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
5319 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
5320 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
5321 and any application specific purposes.
5322
5323 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
5324 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
5325 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
5326 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
5327 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
5328 if the certificate is self signed.
5329 [Steve Henson]
5330
5331 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
5332 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
5333 [Steve Henson]
5334
5335 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
5336 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
5337 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
5338 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
5339 [Steve Henson]
5340
5341 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
5342 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
5343 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
5344 Update documentation.
5345 [Steve Henson]
5346
5347 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
5348 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
5349 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
5350 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
5351 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
5352 [Steve Henson]
5353
5354 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
5355 for details.
5356 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
5357
5358 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
5359 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
5360 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
5361 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
5362 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
5363 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
5364 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
5365 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
5366 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
5367 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
5368
5369 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
5370
5371 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
5372 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
5373 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
5374 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
5375 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
5376
5377 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
5378 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
5379 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
5380 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
5381 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
5382 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
5383 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
5384 request additional information:
5385 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
5386 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
5387
5388 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
5389 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
5390 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
5391 options.
5392
5393 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
5394 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
5395
5396 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
5397 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
5398 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
5399
5400 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
5401 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5402
5403 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
5404 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
5405 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
5406 algorithm.
5407 [Steve Henson]
5408
5409 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
5410 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
5411 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
5412
5413 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
5414 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
5415 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
5416 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
5417 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
5418 included in OpenSSL.
5419 [Steve Henson]
5420
5421 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
5422 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
5423 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
5424 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
5425 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
5426 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
5427 [Bodo Moeller]
5428
5429 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
5430 PKCS12 structure.
5431 [Steve Henson]
5432
5433 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
5434 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
5435 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
5436 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
5437 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
5438 structure.
5439 [Steve Henson]
5440
5441 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
5442 need initialising.
5443 [Steve Henson]
5444
5445 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
5446 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
5447 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
5448 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
5449 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
5450 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
5451 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
5452 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
5453 be maintained manually.
5454
5455 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
5456 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
5457 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
5458 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
5459 work because people forget to call this function]
5460 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
5461 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
5462 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
5463 [Steve Henson]
5464
5465 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
5466 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
5467 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
5468 should be discouraged from doing it.
5469 [Ben Laurie]
5470
5471 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
5472 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
5473 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
5474 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
5475 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
5476 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
5477 [Steve Henson]
5478
5479 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
5480 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
5481 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
5482
5483 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
5484 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
5485 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
5486
5487 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
5488 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
5489 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
5490 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
5491 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
5492 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
5493
5494 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
5495 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
5496 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
5497
5498 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
5499 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
5500 and vice versa.
5501
5502 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
5503 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
5504 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
5505 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
5506 [Steve Henson]
5507
5508 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
5509 [Steve Henson]
5510
5511 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
5512 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
5513 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
5514 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
5515 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
5516 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
5517 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
5518 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
5519 keys so we should be OK.
5520
5521 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
5522 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
5523 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
5524 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
5525 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
5526 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
5527 stay in the name of compatibility.
5528
5529 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
5530 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
5531 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
5532
5533 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
5534 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
5535 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
5536 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
5537 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
5538 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
5539 supplied key).
5540 [Steve Henson]
5541
5542 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
5543 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
5544 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
5545 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
5546 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
5547 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
5548 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
5549 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
5550 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
5551 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
5552 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
5553 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
5554 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
5555 [Steve Henson]
5556
5557 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
5558 [Steve Henson]
5559
5560 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
5561 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
5562 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
5563 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
5564 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
5565 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
5566 single self signed certificate. This means that:
5567 openssl verify ss.pem
5568 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
5569 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
5570 is OK.
5571 [Steve Henson]
5572
5573 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
5574 (and add it to external session representation).
5575 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
5576 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
5577 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
5578 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
5579 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
5580 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
5581 security holes.
5582 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
5583
5584 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
5585 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
5586 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
5587 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
5588
5589 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
5590 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
5591 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
5592 [Steve Henson]
5593
5594 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
5595 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
5596 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
5597 code.
5598 [Steve Henson]
5599
5600 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
5601 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
5602 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
5603
5604 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
5605 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
5606 certificate auxiliary information.
5607 [Steve Henson]
5608
5609 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
5610 the 'enc' command.
5611 [Steve Henson]
5612
5613 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
5614 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
5615 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
5616 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
5617 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
5618 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
5619 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
5620 [Richard Levitte]
5621
5622 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
5623 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
5624 [Steve Henson]
5625
5626 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
5627 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
5628 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
5629 manpages and fix a few bugs.
5630 [Steve Henson]
5631
5632 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
5633 [Steve Henson]
5634
5635 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
5636 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
5637 [Steve Henson]
5638
5639 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
5640 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
5641 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
5642 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
5643 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
5644 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
5645 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
5646 using the new 'x509' options.
5647
5648 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
5649 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
5650 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
5651 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
5652 for all purposes.
5653 [Steve Henson]
5654
5655 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
5656 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
5657 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
5658 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
5659 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
5660 [Mark Cox]
5661
5662 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
5663 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
5664 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
5665 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
5666 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
5667 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
5668 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
5669 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
5670 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
5671 the key length and effective key length are equal.
5672 [Steve Henson]
5673
5674 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
5675 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
5676 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
5677 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
5678 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
5679 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
5680 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
5681 [Steve Henson]
5682
5683 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
5684 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
5685 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
5686 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
5687 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
5688 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
5689 openssl.cnf for more info.
5690 [Steve Henson]
5691
5692 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
5693 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
5694 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
5695 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
5696 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
5697 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
5698 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
5699 md should be large enough anyway.
5700 [Bodo Moeller]
5701
5702 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
5703 for handling the random seed file.
5704
5705 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
5706 ca,
5707 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
5708 s_client,
5709 s_server,
5710 x509 (when signing).
5711 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
5712 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
5713 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
5714
5715 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
5716 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
5717 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
5718 that support '-rand'.
5719 [Bodo Moeller]
5720
5721 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
5722 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
5723 [Bodo Moeller]
5724
5725 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
5726 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
5727 [Bill Perry]
5728
5729 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
5730 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
5731 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
5732 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
5733 is suitable.
5734 [Steve Henson]
5735
5736 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
5737 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
5738 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
5739 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
5740 [Steve Henson]
5741
5742 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
5743 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
5744 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
5745 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
5746 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
5747 print out all the purposes.
5748 [Steve Henson]
5749
5750 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
5751 functions.
5752 [Steve Henson]
5753
5754 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
5755 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
5756 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
5757 single function call.
5758 [Steve Henson]
5759
5760 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
5761 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
5762 [Andy Polyakov]
5763
5764 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
5765 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
5766 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
5767 [Steve Henson]
5768
5769 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
5770 when producing the local key id.
5771 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5772
5773 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
5774 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
5775 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
5776 "server.pem".
5777 [Steve Henson]
5778
5779 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
5780 a public key to be input or output. For example:
5781 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
5782 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
5783 [Steve Henson]
5784
5785 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
5786 in the message. This was handled by allowing
5787 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
5788 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
5789
5790 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
5791 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
5792 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
5793 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5794
5795 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
5796 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
5797 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
5798 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
5799 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
5800 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
5801 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
5802 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
5803 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
5804 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
5805 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
5806 trivial: move one line.
5807 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
5808
5809 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
5810 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
5811 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
5812 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
5813 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
5814 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
5815 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
5816 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
5817 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
5818 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
5819 with an event loop for example.
5820 [Steve Henson]
5821
5822 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
5823 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
5824 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
5825 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
5826 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
5827 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
5828 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
5829 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
5830 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
5831 [Steve Henson]
5832
5833 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
5834 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
5835 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
5836 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
5837 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
5838 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
5839 [Steve Henson]
5840
5841 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
5842 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
5843 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
5844 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
5845
5846 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
5847 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
5848 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
5849 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
5850 key generation.
5851 [Steve Henson]
5852
5853 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
5854 (still largely untested)
5855 [Bodo Moeller]
5856
5857 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
5858 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
5859 [Steve Henson]
5860
5861 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
5862 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
5863 [Steve Henson]
5864
5865 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
5866 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
5867 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
5868 [Bodo Moeller]
5869
5870 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
5871 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
5872 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
5873 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
5874 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
5875 [Steve Henson]
5876
5877 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
5878 [Andy Polyakov]
5879
5880 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
5881 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
5882 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
5883 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
5884 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
5885 in ca.
5886 [Steve Henson]
5887
5888 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
5889 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
5890 1.OU="Unit name 1"
5891 2.OU="Unit name 2"
5892 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
5893 [Steve Henson]
5894
5895 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
5896 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
5897 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
5898 are otherwise ignored at present.
5899 [Steve Henson]
5900
5901 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
5902 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
5903 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
5904 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
5905 copied until the next read.
5906 [Steve Henson]
5907
5908 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
5909 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
5910 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
5911 [Steve Henson]
5912
5913 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
5914 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
5915 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
5916 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
5917 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
5918 associated functions.
5919 [Steve Henson]
5920
5921 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
5922 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
5923 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
5924 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
5925 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
5926 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
5927 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
5928 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
5929 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
5930 memory BIOs.
5931 [Steve Henson]
5932
5933 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
5934 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
5935 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
5936 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
5937 [Bodo Moeller]
5938
5939 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
5940 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
5941 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
5942 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
5943 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
5944 functionality.
5945 [Steve Henson]
5946
5947 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
5948 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
5949 under Win32.
5950 [Steve Henson]
5951
5952 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
5953 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
5954 extensions to be obtained and added.
5955 [Steve Henson]
5956
5957 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
5958 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
5959 [Bodo Moeller]
5960
5961 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
5962
5963 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
5964 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5965
5966 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
5967 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
5968
5969 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
5970 program.
5971 [Steve Henson]
5972
5973 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
5974 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
5975 DH parameters contain its length).
5976
5977 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
5978 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
5979 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
5980 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
5981 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
5982 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
5983 utter importance to use
5984 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
5985 or
5986 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
5987 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
5988 attacks may become possible!
5989 [Bodo Moeller]
5990
5991 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
5992 [Bodo Moeller]
5993
5994 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
5995 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
5996 [Steve Henson]
5997
5998 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
5999 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
6000 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
6001 or long name.
6002 [Steve Henson]
6003
6004 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
6005 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
6006 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
6007 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
6008 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
6009 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
6010 private key operations.
6011 [Steve Henson]
6012
6013 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
6014 [Andy Polyakov]
6015
6016 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
6017 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
6018 to
6019 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
6020 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
6021 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
6022 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
6023 the password callback is called.
6024 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
6025
6026 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
6027
6028 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
6029 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
6030 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
6031 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
6032 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
6033 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
6034 this will work.
6035
6036 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
6037 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
6038 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
6039 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
6040 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
6041 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
6042 [Bodo Moeller]
6043
6044 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
6045 [Andy Polyakov]
6046
6047 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
6048 delete an unused file.
6049 [Ulf Möller]
6050
6051 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
6052 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
6053 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
6054 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
6055 [Steve Henson]
6056
6057 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
6058 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
6059 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
6060 of an error.
6061 [Bodo Moeller]
6062
6063 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
6064 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
6065 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6066
6067 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
6068 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
6069 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
6070 comparison" warnings.
6071 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
6072 [Steve Henson]
6073
6074 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
6075 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
6076 derived keys are printed to stderr.
6077 [Steve Henson]
6078
6079 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
6080 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
6081
6082 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
6083 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
6084
6085 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
6086 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
6087 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
6088
6089 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
6090 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
6091 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
6092 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
6093 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
6094 this bug.
6095 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
6096
6097 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
6098 The interface is as follows:
6099 Applications can use
6100 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
6101 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
6102 "off" is now the default.
6103 The library internally uses
6104 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
6105 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
6106 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
6107
6108 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
6109 even the default) are now avoided.
6110
6111 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
6112 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
6113 than just having a counter.
6114
6115 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
6116
6117 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
6118 extensions.
6119 [Bodo Moeller]
6120
6121 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
6122 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
6123 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
6124 Initial "mode" flags are:
6125
6126 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
6127 a single record has been written.
6128 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
6129 retries use the same buffer location.
6130 (But all of the contents must be
6131 copied!)
6132 [Bodo Moeller]
6133
6134 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
6135 worked.
6136
6137 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
6138 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
6139
6140 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
6141 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
6142 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
6143 [Steve Henson]
6144
6145 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
6146 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
6147 test programs.
6148 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
6149
6150 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
6151 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
6152 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
6153 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
6154 point to the end.
6155 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
6156 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
6157
6158 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
6159 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
6160 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
6161 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
6162 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
6163 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
6164 [Steve Henson]
6165
6166 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
6167 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
6168 necessary function names.
6169 [Steve Henson]
6170
6171 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
6172 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
6173 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
6174 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
6175 [Bodo Moeller]
6176
6177 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
6178 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
6179 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
6180 [Steve Henson]
6181
6182 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
6183 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
6184 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
6185 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
6186 such programs?)
6187 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
6188 need locks.
6189 [Bodo Moeller]
6190
6191 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
6192 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
6193 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
6194 [Bodo Moeller]
6195
6196 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
6197 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
6198 appropriate.
6199 [Bodo Moeller]
6200
6201 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
6202 for the encoded length.
6203 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
6204
6205 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
6206 [Steve Henson]
6207
6208 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
6209 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
6210 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
6211 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
6212 [Steve Henson]
6213
6214 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
6215 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
6216 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6217
6218 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
6219 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
6220 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
6221 unusual formatting.
6222 [Steve Henson]
6223
6224 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
6225 to use the new extension code.
6226 [Steve Henson]
6227
6228 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
6229 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
6230 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
6231 constant.
6232 [Steve Henson]
6233
6234 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
6235 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
6236 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
6237 [Bodo Moeller]
6238
6239 #if 0
6240 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
6241 [Ben Laurie]
6242 #else
6243 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
6244 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
6245 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
6246 #endif
6247
6248 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
6249 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
6250 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
6251 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
6252 [Ben Laurie]
6253
6254 *) DES library cleanups.
6255 [Ulf Möller]
6256
6257 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
6258 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
6259 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
6260 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
6261 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
6262 of v2.0.
6263 [Steve Henson]
6264
6265 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
6266 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
6267 [Bodo Moeller]
6268
6269 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
6270 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
6271 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
6272 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
6273 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
6274 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
6275 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
6276 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
6277 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
6278 [Steve Henson]
6279
6280 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
6281 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
6282 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
6283 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
6284 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
6285 value doesn't matter.
6286 [Steve Henson]
6287
6288 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
6289 support mutable.
6290 [Ben Laurie]
6291
6292 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
6293 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
6294 "linux-sparc" configuration.
6295 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
6296
6297 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
6298 [Ulf Möller]
6299
6300 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
6301 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
6302 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
6303
6304 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
6305 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
6306
6307 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
6308 [Ben Laurie]
6309
6310 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
6311 [Ben Laurie]
6312
6313 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
6314 [Ben Laurie]
6315
6316 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
6317 [Bodo Moeller]
6318
6319
6320 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
6321
6322 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
6323
6324 *) Updated some demos.
6325 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
6326
6327 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
6328 [Wu Zhigang]
6329
6330 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
6331 [Steve Henson]
6332
6333 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
6334 [Steve Henson]
6335
6336 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
6337 instead of using a fixed path.
6338 [Bodo Moeller]
6339
6340 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
6341 [Andy Polyakov]
6342
6343 *) Improvements for VMS support.
6344 [Richard Levitte]
6345
6346
6347 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
6348
6349 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
6350 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
6351 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
6352
6353 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
6354 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
6355 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
6356 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
6357 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
6358 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
6359 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
6360 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
6361 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
6362 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
6363 [Steve Henson]
6364
6365 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
6366 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
6367 [Steve Henson]
6368
6369 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
6370 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
6371 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
6372 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
6373 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
6374
6375 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
6376 [Bodo Moeller]
6377
6378 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
6379 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
6380 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
6381 [Steve Henson]
6382
6383 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
6384 [Ben Laurie]
6385
6386 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
6387 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
6388 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
6389 key elements as negative integers.
6390 [Steve Henson]
6391
6392 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
6393 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
6394
6395 *) VMS support.
6396 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
6397
6398 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
6399 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
6400 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
6401 [Steve Henson]
6402
6403 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
6404 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
6405 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
6406 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
6407 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
6408 [Bodo Moeller]
6409
6410 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
6411 [Ulf Möller]
6412
6413 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
6414 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
6415 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
6416 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6417
6418 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
6419 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
6420 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
6421
6422 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
6423 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
6424 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
6425 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
6426 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
6427 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
6428 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
6429 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
6430 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
6431
6432 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
6433 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
6434 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
6435 does not influence s as it used to.
6436
6437 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
6438 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
6439 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
6440 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
6441 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
6442 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
6443 [Bodo Moeller]
6444
6445 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
6446 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
6447 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
6448 key type.
6449 [Steve Henson]
6450
6451 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
6452 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
6453 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
6454 and 'x509').
6455 [Steve Henson]
6456
6457 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
6458 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
6459 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
6460 extension option.
6461 [Steve Henson]
6462
6463 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
6464 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
6465 [Ben Laurie]
6466
6467 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
6468 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
6469
6470 *) Support Mingw32.
6471 [Ulf Möller]
6472
6473 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
6474 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
6475
6476 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
6477 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
6478
6479 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
6480 [Ulf Möller]
6481
6482 *) Update HPUX configuration.
6483 [Anonymous]
6484
6485 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
6486 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6487
6488 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
6489 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
6490 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
6491 DER-encoded.)
6492 [Bodo Moeller]
6493
6494 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
6495 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
6496 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
6497 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
6498 now it really counts the depth.
6499 [Bodo Moeller]
6500
6501 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
6502 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
6503 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
6504 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
6505 didn't match the private key).
6506
6507 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
6508 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
6509 connection using the SSL_CTX).
6510 [Bodo Moeller]
6511
6512 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
6513 [Ulf Möller]
6514
6515 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
6516 David Harris.
6517 [Bodo Moeller]
6518
6519 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
6520 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
6521 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
6522 [Bodo Moeller]
6523
6524 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
6525 [Bodo Moeller]
6526
6527 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
6528 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
6529 such as /usr/local/bin.
6530 [Bodo Moeller]
6531
6532 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
6533 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
6534
6535 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
6536 [Ulf Möller]
6537
6538 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
6539 extension adding in x509 utility.
6540 [Steve Henson]
6541
6542 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
6543 [Ulf Möller]
6544
6545 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
6546 prototypes.
6547 [Steve Henson]
6548
6549 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
6550 [Ulf Möller]
6551
6552 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
6553 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
6554 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
6555 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
6556 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
6557 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
6558 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
6559 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
6560 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
6561 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
6562 [Steve Henson]
6563
6564 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
6565 [Bodo Moeller]
6566
6567 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
6568 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
6569 [Bodo Moeller]
6570
6571 *) Fix some race conditions.
6572 [Bodo Moeller]
6573
6574 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
6575 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
6576 [Steve Henson]
6577
6578 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
6579 [Ulf Möller]
6580
6581 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
6582 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
6583 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
6584 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
6585
6586 *) Fix lots of warnings.
6587 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6588
6589 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
6590 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
6591 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6592
6593 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
6594 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
6595
6596 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
6597 [Ulf Möller]
6598
6599 *) Fix typos in error codes.
6600 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
6601
6602 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
6603 [Ulf Möller]
6604
6605 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
6606 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
6607
6608 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
6609 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
6610 [Steve Henson]
6611
6612 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
6613 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
6614 [Ben Laurie]
6615
6616 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
6617 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
6618 [Steve Henson]
6619
6620 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
6621 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
6622 [Steve Henson]
6623
6624 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
6625 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
6626 [Steve Henson]
6627
6628 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
6629 support typesafe stack.
6630 [Steve Henson]
6631
6632 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
6633 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
6634
6635 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
6636 old X509V3 handling code.
6637 [Steve Henson]
6638
6639 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
6640 [Ulf Möller]
6641
6642 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
6643 [Bodo Moeller]
6644
6645 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
6646 [Ben Laurie]
6647
6648 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
6649 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
6650
6651 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
6652 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
6653 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
6654 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
6655 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
6656 [Ben Laurie]
6657
6658 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
6659 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
6660 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
6661 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
6662 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
6663
6664 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
6665 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
6666 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
6667 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6668
6669 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
6670 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
6671 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
6672 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6673
6674 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
6675 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
6676 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
6677 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
6678 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
6679 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
6680 [Bodo Moeller]
6681
6682 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
6683 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
6684 [Bodo Moeller]
6685
6686 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
6687 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
6688 [Ulf Möller]
6689
6690 *) Tweaks to Configure
6691 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
6692
6693 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
6694 yet...
6695 [Steve Henson]
6696
6697 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
6698 [Ulf Möller]
6699
6700 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
6701 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
6702 [Ulf Möller]
6703
6704 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
6705 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
6706 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
6707 [Bodo Moeller]
6708
6709 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
6710 [Bodo Moeller]
6711
6712 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
6713 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
6714 [Steve Henson]
6715
6716 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
6717 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
6718 to library startup routines.
6719 [Steve Henson]
6720
6721 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
6722 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
6723 codes along the way.
6724 [Steve Henson]
6725
6726 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
6727 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
6728 objects to objects.h
6729 [Steve Henson]
6730
6731 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
6732 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
6733 [Steve Henson]
6734
6735 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
6736 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
6737
6738 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
6739 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
6740 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
6741
6742 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
6743 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
6744 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
6745
6746 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
6747 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
6748 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
6749
6750
6751 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
6752
6753 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
6754 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
6755 [Ben Laurie]
6756
6757 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
6758 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
6759 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
6760 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
6761 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
6762
6763 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
6764 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
6765 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
6766 document.
6767 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
6768
6769 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
6770 Malloc, Free.
6771 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
6772
6773 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
6774 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
6775
6776 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
6777 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
6778 if someone would make that last step automatic.
6779 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
6780
6781 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
6782 [Ben Laurie]
6783
6784 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
6785 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
6786 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
6787 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
6788 [Steve Henson]
6789
6790 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
6791 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
6792 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
6793 [Steve Henson]
6794
6795 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
6796 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
6797 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
6798 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
6799 installed as `perl').
6800 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
6801
6802 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
6803 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
6804
6805 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
6806 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
6807 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
6808 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
6809 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
6810 [Steve Henson]
6811
6812 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
6813 [Ben Laurie]
6814
6815 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
6816 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
6817 is horrible: I feel ill....
6818 [Steve Henson]
6819
6820 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
6821 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
6822 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
6823 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
6824 [Steve Henson]
6825
6826 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
6827 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6828
6829 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
6830 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
6831 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
6832 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6833
6834 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
6835 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
6836 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
6837 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
6838 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
6839 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
6840 openssl_bio.xs.
6841 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6842
6843 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
6844 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
6845
6846 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
6847 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
6848
6849 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
6850 [Ben Laurie]
6851
6852 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
6853 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
6854 in CRLs.
6855 [Steve Henson]
6856
6857 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
6858 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
6859 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
6860 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
6861 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
6862 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
6863 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
6864 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
6865 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
6866 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
6867 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6868
6869 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
6870 [Ben Laurie]
6871
6872 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
6873 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
6874 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
6875 for linking it into DSOs.
6876 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6877
6878 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
6879 Fixed.
6880 [Ben Laurie]
6881
6882 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
6883 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
6884 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
6885 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
6886 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
6887 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6888
6889 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
6890 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
6891 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
6892 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
6893 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
6894 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
6895 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6896
6897 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
6898 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
6899 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
6900 encryption.
6901 [Ben Laurie]
6902
6903 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
6904 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
6905 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
6906 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
6907 [Steve Henson]
6908
6909 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
6910 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
6911 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
6912 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
6913 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
6914 field as blank.
6915 [Steve Henson]
6916
6917 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
6918 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
6919 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
6920 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
6921 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6922
6923 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
6924 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
6925 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
6926
6927 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
6928 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
6929
6930 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
6931 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
6932 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
6933 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
6934 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
6935 [Steve Henson]
6936
6937 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
6938 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
6939 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
6940 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
6941 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
6942 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
6943 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
6944 [Ben Laurie]
6945
6946 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
6947 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
6948 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
6949 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
6950 [Ben Laurie]
6951
6952 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
6953 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
6954
6955 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
6956 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
6957 [Steve Henson]
6958
6959 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
6960 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
6961 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
6962 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
6963 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
6964 (e.g. s_server).
6965 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
6966 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
6967 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
6968 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
6969 no way to reconfigure them.
6970 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
6971 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
6972 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
6973 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
6974 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
6975 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6976
6977 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
6978 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
6979 recognized by the users.
6980 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6981
6982 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
6983 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
6984 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
6985 already masked variable.
6986 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6987
6988 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
6989 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6990
6991 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
6992 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
6993 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
6994 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6995
6996 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
6997 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
6998 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6999
7000 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
7001 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
7002 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
7003 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
7004 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
7005 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
7006 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
7007 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
7008 now, too.
7009 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7010
7011 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
7012 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
7013 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7014
7015 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
7016 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
7017 config file.
7018 [Steve Henson]
7019
7020 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
7021 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
7022
7023 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
7024 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
7025 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
7026 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
7027 [Ben Laurie]
7028
7029 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
7030 [Steve Henson]
7031
7032 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
7033 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7034
7035 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
7036 [Ben Laurie]
7037
7038 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
7039 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
7040 [Steve Henson]
7041
7042 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
7043 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
7044 [Steve Henson]
7045
7046 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
7047 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
7048 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
7049 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
7050 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
7051 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
7052 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
7053 Ben Laurie]
7054
7055 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
7056 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7057
7058 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
7059 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
7060 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
7061 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
7062 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7063
7064 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
7065 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
7066 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
7067 [Steve Henson]
7068
7069 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
7070 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
7071 an example.
7072 [Steve Henson]
7073
7074 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
7075 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
7076 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
7077
7078 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
7079 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
7080 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
7081 build instructions.
7082 [Steve Henson]
7083
7084 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
7085 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
7086 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
7087 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
7088 [Steve Henson]
7089
7090 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
7091 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
7092 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
7093 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
7094 [Ben Laurie]
7095
7096 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
7097 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
7098 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
7099 so it wasn't spotted.
7100 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
7101
7102 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
7103 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
7104 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
7105 vectors if you have them.
7106 [Ben Laurie]
7107
7108 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
7109 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
7110 [Ben Laurie]
7111
7112 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
7113 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
7114 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
7115 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
7116 If you do a:
7117 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
7118 it will update them.
7119 [Steve Henson]
7120
7121 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
7122 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
7123 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
7124 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
7125 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
7126 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
7127 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
7128 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7129
7130 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
7131 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
7132 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
7133 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
7134 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
7135 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
7136 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
7137 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
7138 the crypto/md/ stuff).
7139 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7140
7141 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
7142 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
7143 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
7144 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
7145 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
7146 [Steve Henson]
7147
7148 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
7149 INTEGER code.
7150 [Steve Henson]
7151
7152 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
7153 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7154
7155 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
7156 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7157
7158 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
7159 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
7160 [Ben Laurie]
7161
7162 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
7163 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
7164
7165 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
7166 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
7167
7168 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
7169 [Steve Henson]
7170
7171 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
7172 few typos.
7173 [Steve Henson]
7174
7175 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
7176 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
7177 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
7178 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7179
7180 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
7181 [Steve Henson]
7182
7183 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
7184 [Steve Henson]
7185
7186 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
7187 [Steve Henson]
7188
7189 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
7190 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
7191 [Steve Henson]
7192
7193 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
7194 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
7195 CA extensions.
7196 [Steve Henson]
7197
7198 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
7199 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
7200 [Steve Henson]
7201
7202 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
7203 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
7204 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
7205 [Steve Henson]
7206
7207 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
7208 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
7209 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
7210 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
7211 properly to be processed.
7212 [Steve Henson]
7213
7214 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
7215 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
7216 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
7217 [Ben Laurie]
7218
7219 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
7220 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
7221
7222 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
7223 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
7224 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
7225 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
7226 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
7227 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
7228 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
7229 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
7230 or delete all the .err files.
7231 [Steve Henson]
7232
7233 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
7234 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
7235 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
7236 to regenerate it if needed.
7237 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
7238 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
7239
7240 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
7241 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7242
7243 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
7244 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
7245 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
7246 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
7247 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
7248 [Steve Henson]
7249
7250 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
7251 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7252
7253 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
7254 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
7255
7256 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
7257 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
7258 error, but didn't set one).
7259 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
7260
7261 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
7262 [Ben Laurie]
7263
7264 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
7265 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
7266 [Steve Henson]
7267
7268 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
7269 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
7270
7271 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
7272 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
7273 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
7274 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
7275 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
7276 OID is not part of the table.
7277 [Steve Henson]
7278
7279 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
7280 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
7281 [Ben Laurie]
7282
7283 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
7284 [Ben Laurie]
7285
7286 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
7287 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
7288 was "1234").
7289 [Steve Henson]
7290
7291 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
7292 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
7293
7294 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
7295 NULL pointers.
7296 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
7297
7298 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
7299 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
7300
7301 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
7302 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
7303
7304 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
7305 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
7306
7307 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
7308 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
7309 [Ben Laurie]
7310
7311 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
7312 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
7313 [Steve Henson]
7314
7315 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
7316 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7317
7318 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
7319 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7320
7321 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
7322 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7323
7324 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
7325 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7326
7327 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
7328 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
7329 unused in the certificate verification process.
7330 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7331
7332 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
7333 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
7334 [Steve Henson]
7335
7336 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
7337 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
7338 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
7339
7340 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
7341 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
7342 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
7343 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
7344 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
7345
7346 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
7347 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
7348 [Steve Henson]
7349
7350 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
7351 [Steve Henson]
7352
7353 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
7354 [Paul Sutton]
7355
7356 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
7357 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
7358
7359 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
7360 [Ben Laurie]
7361
7362 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
7363 [Ben Laurie]
7364
7365 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
7366 [Ben Laurie]
7367
7368 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
7369 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
7370 other error libraries.
7371 [Steve Henson]
7372
7373 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
7374 [Steve Henson]
7375
7376 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
7377 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
7378 be read in.
7379 [Steve Henson]
7380
7381 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
7382 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
7383 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
7384 the new set of documenation files.
7385 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7386
7387 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
7388 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
7389 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
7390 number of arguments.
7391 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
7392
7393 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
7394 [Ben Laurie]
7395
7396 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
7397 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
7398 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7399
7400 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
7401 [Ben Laurie]
7402
7403 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
7404 nextstep
7405 ncr-scde
7406 unixware-2.0
7407 unixware-2.0-pentium
7408 sco5-cc.
7409 [Ben Laurie]
7410
7411 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
7412 before they are needed.
7413 [Ben Laurie]
7414
7415 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
7416 [Ben Laurie]
7417
7418
7419 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
7420
7421 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
7422 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
7423 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7424
7425 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
7426 [Paul Sutton]
7427
7428 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
7429 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
7430 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7431
7432 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
7433 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
7434 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
7435
7436 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
7437 when "ssleay" is still not found.
7438 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7439
7440 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
7441 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
7442
7443 *) Updated the README file.
7444 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7445
7446 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
7447 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
7448 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7449
7450 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
7451 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
7452 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7453
7454 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
7455 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
7456 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
7457 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
7458 o removed obsolete TODO file
7459 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
7460 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7461
7462 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
7463 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
7464 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
7465 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
7466 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
7467 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
7468 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7469
7470 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
7471 [Mark J. Cox]
7472
7473 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
7474 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
7475 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
7476 summer 1998.
7477 [The OpenSSL Project]
7478
7479
7480 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
7481
7482 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
7483 [Eric A. Young]
7484
7485 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
7486 [Eric A. Young]
7487
7488 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
7489 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
7490 [Eric A. Young]
7491
7492 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
7493 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
7494 available).
7495 [Eric A. Young]
7496
7497 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
7498 binary structures
7499 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
7500
7501 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
7502 [Eric A. Young]
7503
7504 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
7505 [Eric A. Young]
7506
7507 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
7508 [Eric A. Young]
7509
7510 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
7511 [Eric A. Young]
7512
7513 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
7514 [Eric A. Young]
7515
7516 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
7517 [Eric A. Young]
7518
7519 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
7520 [Eric A. Young]
7521
7522 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
7523 [Eric A. Young]
7524
7525 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
7526 [Eric A. Young]
7527
7528 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
7529 [Eric A. Young]
7530
7531 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
7532 [Eric A. Young]
7533
7534 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
7535 [Eric A. Young]
7536
7537 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
7538 [Eric A. Young]
7539
7540 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
7541 [Eric A. Young]
7542
7543 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
7544 [Eric A. Young]
7545
7546 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
7547 [Eric A. Young]
7548
7549 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
7550 [Eric A. Young]
7551
7552 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
7553 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
7554 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
7555 [Eric A. Young]
7556
7557 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
7558 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
7559 [Eric A. Young]
7560
7561 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
7562 [Eric A. Young]
7563
7564 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
7565 [Eric A. Young]
7566
7567 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
7568 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
7569 [Eric A. Young]
7570
7571 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
7572 [Eric A. Young]
7573
7574 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
7575 [Eric A. Young]
7576
7577 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
7578 bytes sent in the client random.
7579 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
7580
