5 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
8 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
9 [Todd Short]
10
11 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
12 default.
13 [Kurt Roeckx]
14
15 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
16 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
17 [Kurt Roeckx]
18
19 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
20
21 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
22 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
23 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
24 [Viktor Dukhovni]
25
26 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
27 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
28 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
29 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
30 will need to explicitly call either of:
31
32 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
33 or
34 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
35
36 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
37 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
38 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
39 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
40 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
41 (CVE-2016-0800)
42 [Viktor Dukhovni]
43
44 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
45
46 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
47 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
48 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
49 considered rare.
50
51 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
52 libFuzzer.
53 (CVE-2016-0705)
54 [Stephen Henson]
55
56 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
57
58 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
59
60 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
61 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
62 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
63 is configured.
64
65 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
66 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
67 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
68 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
69 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
70 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
71 that of a valid user.
72 (CVE-2016-0798)
73 [Emilia Käsper]
74
75 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
76
77 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
78 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
79 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
80 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
81 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
82 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
83 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
84 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
85 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
86 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
87 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
88
89 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
90 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
91 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
92 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
93 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
94
95 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
96 (CVE-2016-0797)
97 [Matt Caswell]
98
99 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
100
101 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
102 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
103 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
104
105 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
106 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
107 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
108 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
109 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
110 also occur.
111
112 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
113 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
114 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
115 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
116 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
117 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
118 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
119 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
120 as command line arguments.
121
122 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
123 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
124 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
125
126 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
127 (CVE-2016-0799)
128 [Matt Caswell]
129
130 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
131
132 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
133 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
134 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
135 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
136 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
137
138 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
139 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
140 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
141 http://cachebleed.info.
142 (CVE-2016-0702)
143 [Andy Polyakov]
144
145 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
146 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
147 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
148 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
149 [Emilia Käsper]
150
151 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
152
153 *) DH small subgroups
154
155 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
156 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
157 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
158 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
159 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
160 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
161 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
162 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
163 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
164 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
165
166 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
167 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
168 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
169 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
170 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
171
172 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
173 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
174 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
175 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
176
177 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
178 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
179
180 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
181 (CVE-2016-0701)
182 [Matt Caswell]
183
184 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
185
186 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
187 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
188 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
189 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
190
191 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
192 and Sebastian Schinzel.
193 (CVE-2015-3197)
194 [Viktor Dukhovni]
195
196 *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 1024 bits.
197 [Kurt Roeckx]
198
199 Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
200
201 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
202
203 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
204 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
205 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
206 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
207 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
208 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
209 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
210 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
211 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
212 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
213 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
214 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.
215
216 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
217 (CVE-2015-3193)
218 [Andy Polyakov]
219
220 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
221
222 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
223 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
224 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
225 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
226 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
227 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
228 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
229 authentication.
230
231 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
232 (CVE-2015-3194)
233 [Stephen Henson]
234
235 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
236
237 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
238 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
239 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
240 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
241
242 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
243 libFuzzer.
244 (CVE-2015-3195)
245 [Stephen Henson]
246
247 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
248 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
249 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
250 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
251 [Emilia Käsper]
252
253 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
254 use a random seed, as already documented.
255 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
256
257 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
258
259 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
260
261 During certificate verfification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
262 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
263 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
264 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
265 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
266 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
267
268 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
269 (Google/BoringSSL).
270 (CVE-2015-1793)
271 [Matt Caswell]
272
273 *) Race condition handling PSK identify hint
274
275 If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then
276 the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
277 result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the
278 identify hint data.
279 (CVE-2015-3196)
280 [Stephen Henson]
281
282 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
283
284 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
285 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
286 restored.
287
288 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
289
290 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
291
292 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
293 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
294 field.
295
296 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
297 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
298 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
299 client authentication enabled.
300
301 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
302 (CVE-2015-1788)
303 [Andy Polyakov]
304
305 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
306
307 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
308 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
309 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
310 time string.
311
312 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
313 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
314 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
315 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
316 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
317 callbacks.
318
319 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
320 independently by Hanno Böck.
321 (CVE-2015-1789)
322 [Emilia Käsper]
323
324 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
325
326 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
327 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
328 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
329
330 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
331 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
332 servers are not affected.
333
334 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
335 (CVE-2015-1790)
336 [Emilia Käsper]
337
338 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
339
340 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
341 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
342 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
343 the CMS code.
344 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
345 (CVE-2015-1792)
346 [Stephen Henson]
347
348 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
349
350 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
351 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
352 a double free of the ticket data.
353 (CVE-2015-1791)
354 [Matt Caswell]
355
356 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
357 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
358 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
359 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
360 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
361 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
362 [Matt Caswell]
363
364 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
365 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
366 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
367 [Emilia Kasper]
368
369 *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 768 bits.
370 [Kurt Roeckx and Emilia Kasper]
371
372 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
373
374 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
375
376 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
377 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
378 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
379
380 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
381 University.
382 (CVE-2015-0291)
383 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
384
385 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
386
387 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
388 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
389 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
390 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
391 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
392 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
393 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
394 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
395
396 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
397 (CVE-2015-0290)
398 [Matt Caswell]
399
400 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
401
402 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
403 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
404 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
405 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
406 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
407 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
408 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
409 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
410 server.
411
412 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
413 (CVE-2015-0207)
414 [Matt Caswell]
415
416 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
417
418 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
419 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
420 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
421 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
422 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
423 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
424 (CVE-2015-0286)
425 [Stephen Henson]
426
427 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
428
429 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
430 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
431 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
432 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
433 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
434 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
435 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
436
437 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
438 (CVE-2015-0208)
439 [Stephen Henson]
440
441 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
442
443 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
444 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
445 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
446
447 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
448 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
449 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
450 not affected.
451 (CVE-2015-0287)
452 [Stephen Henson]
453
454 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
455
456 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
457 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
458 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
459
460 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
461 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
462 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
463
464 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
465 (CVE-2015-0289)
466 [Emilia Käsper]
467
468 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
469
470 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
471 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
472 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
473
474 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
475 (OpenSSL development team).
476 (CVE-2015-0293)
477 [Emilia Käsper]
478
479 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
480
481 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
482 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
483 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
484 (CVE-2015-1787)
485 [Matt Caswell]
486
487 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
488
489 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
490 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
491 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
492 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
493 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
494 SSL_client_methodv23)
495 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
496 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
497
498 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
499 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
500 output may be predictable.
501
502 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
503 succeed on an unpatched platform:
504
505 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
506 (CVE-2015-0285)
507 [Matt Caswell]
508
509 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
510
511 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
512 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
513 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
514 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
515 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
516 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
517
518 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
519 commit 517073cd4b.
520 (CVE-2015-0209)
521 [Matt Caswell]
522
523 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
524
525 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
526 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
527
528 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
529 (CVE-2015-0288)
530 [Stephen Henson]
531
532 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
533 [Kurt Roeckx]
534
535 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
536
537 *) Change RSA and DH/DSA key generation apps to generate 2048-bit
538 keys by default.
539 [Kurt Roeckx]
540
541 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
542 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
543 So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
544 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
545 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
546 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
547 [Andy Polyakov]
548
549 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
550 (other platforms pending).
551 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
552
553 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
554 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
555 [Rob Stradling]
556
557 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
558 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
559 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
560 [Bodo Moeller]
561
562 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
563 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
564 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
565 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
566 [Andy Polyakov]
567
568 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
569 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
570
571 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
572 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
573 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
574 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
575 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
576
577 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
578 [Andy Polyakov]
579
580 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
581 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
582 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
583 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
584
585 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
586 RSAZ.
587 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
588
589 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
590 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
591 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
592 for TLS encrypt.
593
594 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
595 [Andy Polyakov]
596
597 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
598 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
599 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
600 [Steve Henson]
601
602 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
603 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
604 [Steve Henson]
605
606 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
607 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
608 [Steve Henson]
609
610 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
611 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
612 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
613 algorithms and include tests cases.
614 [Steve Henson]
615
616 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
617 structure.
618 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
619
620 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
621 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
622 [Steve Henson]
623
624 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
625 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
626 summary of the connection parameters.
627 [Steve Henson]
628
629 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
630 of connection parameters.
631 [Steve Henson]
632
633 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
634 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
635
636 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
637 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
638 [Steve Henson]
639
640 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
641 [Steve Henson]
642
643 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
644 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
645 [Steve Henson]
646
647 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
648 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
649 [Steve Henson]
650
651 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
652 certificates.
653 [Steve Henson]
654
655 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
656 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
657 CRLs using the OCSP API.
658 [Steve Henson]
659
660 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
661 [Steve Henson]
662
663 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
664 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
665 [Steve Henson]
666
667 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
668 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
669 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
670 tracing.
671 [Steve Henson]
672
673 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
674 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
675 [Steve Henson]
676
677 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
678 OID NID.
679 [Steve Henson]
680
681 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
682 client to OpenSSL.
683 [Steve Henson]
684
685 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
686 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
687 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
688 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
689 [Steve Henson]
690
691 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
692 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
693 [Steve Henson]
694
695 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
696 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
697 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
698 comparison.
699 [Steve Henson]
700
701 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
702 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
703 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
704 use the certificate.
705 [Steve Henson]
706
707 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
708 [Steve Henson]
709
710 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
711 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
712 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
713 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
714 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
715 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
716 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
717
718 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
719 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
720
721 [Steve Henson]
722
723 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
724 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
725 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
726 [Steve Henson]
727
728 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
729 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
730 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
731 supported signature algorithms.
732 [Steve Henson]
733
734 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
735 [Steve Henson]
736
737 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
738 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
739 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
740 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
741 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
742 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
743 certificate and specify the whole chain.
744 [Steve Henson]
745
746 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
747 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
748 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
749 to have similar checks in it.
750
751 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
752 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
753 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
754 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
755 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
756 [Steve Henson]
757
758 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
759 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
760 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
761 shared signature algorithms.
762 [Steve Henson]
763
764 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
765 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
766 to support them.
767 [Steve Henson]
768
769 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
770 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
771 it couldn't be removed.
772 [Steve Henson]
773
774 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
775 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
776 [Steve Henson]
777
778 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
779 functions. Add manual page.
780 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
781
782 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
783 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
784 a certificate.
785 [Steve Henson]
786
787 *) Fix OCSP checking.
788 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
789
790 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
791 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
792 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
793 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
794 utility) or reject.
795 [Steve Henson]
796
797 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
798 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
799 [Steve Henson]
800
801 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
802 platform support for Linux and Android.
803 [Andy Polyakov]
804
805 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
806 [Andy Polyakov]
807
808 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
809 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
810 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
811 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
812 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
813 [Steve Henson]
814
815 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
816 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
817 the new parameter format automatically.
818 [Steve Henson]
819
820 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
821 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
822 [Steve Henson]
823
824 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
825 [Steve Henson]
826
827 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
828 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
829 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
830 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
831 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
832 [Steve Henson]
833
834 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
835 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
836 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
837 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
838 to set list of supported curves.
839 [Steve Henson]
840
841 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
842 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
843 to print out received values.
844 [Steve Henson]
845
846 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
847 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
848 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
849 [Steve Henson]
850
851 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
852 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
853 [Steve Henson]
854
855 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
856 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
857 [Steve Henson]
858
859 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
860 certificates.
861 [Steve Henson]
862
863 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
864 the certificate.
865 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
866 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
867 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
868
869 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
870
871 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
872 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
873
874 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
875
876 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
877 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
878 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
879 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
880 (CVE-2014-3571)
881 [Steve Henson]
882
883 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
884 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
885 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
886 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
887 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
888 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
889 (CVE-2015-0206)
890 [Matt Caswell]
891
892 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
893 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
894 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
895 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
896 (CVE-2014-3569)
897 [Kurt Roeckx]
898
899 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
900 ECDH ciphersuites.
901
902 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
903 reporting this issue.
904 (CVE-2014-3572)
905 [Steve Henson]
906
907 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
908 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
909 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
910 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
911 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
912 INRIA or reporting this issue.
913 (CVE-2015-0204)
914 [Steve Henson]
915
916 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
917 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
918 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
919 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
920 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
921 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
922 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
923 this issue.
924 (CVE-2015-0205)
925 [Steve Henson]
926
927 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
928 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
929
930 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
931 and can vary with the CTX.
932 [Adam Langley]
933
934 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
935
936 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
937 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
938 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
939 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
940 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
941
942 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
943
944 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
945 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
946
947 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
948
949 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
950 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
951 errors for some broken certificates.
952
953 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
954
955 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
956
957 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
958 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
959
960 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
961 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
962 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
963 (negative or with leading zeroes).
964
965 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
966 of the OpenSSL core team.
967
968 (CVE-2014-8275)
969 [Steve Henson]
970
971 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
972 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
973 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
974 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
975 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
976 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
977 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
978 the OpenSSL core team.
979 (CVE-2014-3570)
980 [Andy Polyakov]
981
982 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
983 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
984 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
985 sanity and breaks all known clients.
986 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
987
988 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
989 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
990 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
991 [Emilia Käsper]
992
993 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
994 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
995 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
996 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
997 announced in the initial ServerHello.
998
999 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
1000 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1001 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
1002 [Emilia Käsper]
1003
1004 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
1005
1006 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
1007
1008 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
1009 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
1010 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
1011 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
1012 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
1013 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
1014 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
1015
1016 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
1017 (CVE-2014-3513)
1018 [OpenSSL team]
1019
1020 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
1021
1022 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
1023 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
1024 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
1025 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
1026 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
1027 attack.
1028 (CVE-2014-3567)
1029 [Steve Henson]
1030
1031 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
1032
1033 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
1034 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
1035 configured to send them.
1036 (CVE-2014-3568)
1037 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
1038
1039 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
1040 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
1041 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
1042 (CVE-2014-3566)
1043 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1044
1045 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
1046
1047 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
1048 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
1049 DigestInfo structures.
1050
1051 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
1052
1053 [Steve Henson]
1054
1055 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
1056
1057 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
1058 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
1059 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
1060
1061 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
1062 Group for discovering this issue.
1063 (CVE-2014-3512)
1064 [Steve Henson]
1065
1066 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
1067 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
1068 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
1069 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
1070 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
1071
1072 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
1073 researching this issue.
1074 (CVE-2014-3511)
1075 [David Benjamin]
1076
1077 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
1078 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
1079 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
1080 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
1081
1082 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
1083 issue.
1084 (CVE-2014-3510)
1085 [Emilia Käsper]
1086
1087 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
1088 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1089 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1090 (CVE-2014-3507)
1091 [Adam Langley]
1092
1093 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
1094 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
1095 Denial of Service attack.
1096 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1097 (CVE-2014-3506)
1098 [Adam Langley]
1099
1100 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
1101 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
1102 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1103 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
1104 this issue.
1105 (CVE-2014-3505)
1106 [Adam Langley]
1107
1108 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
1109 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
1110 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
1111
1112 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
1113 issue.
1114 (CVE-2014-3509)
1115 [Gabor Tyukasz]
1116
1117 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
1118 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
1119 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
1120 Denial of Service attack.
1121
1122 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
1123 discovering and researching this issue.
1124 (CVE-2014-5139)
1125 [Steve Henson]
1126
1127 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
1128 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
1129 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
1130 output to the attacker.
1131
1132 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
1133 (CVE-2014-3508)
1134 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
1135
1136 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1137 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1138 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1139 [Bodo Moeller]
1140
1141 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
1142
1143 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
1144 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
1145 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
1146
1147 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
1148 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
1149 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
1150
1151 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
1152 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
1153 in a DoS attack.
1154
1155 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
1156 (CVE-2014-0221)
1157 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
1158
1159 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
1160 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
1161 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
1162 code on a vulnerable client or server.
1163
1164 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
1165 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
1166
1167 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
1168 are subject to a denial of service attack.
1169
1170 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
1171 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
1172 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
1173
1174 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1175 compilation flags.
1176 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1177
1178 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1179 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1180 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1181
1182 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1183 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1184
1185 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
1186
1187 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1188 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1189 server.
1190
1191 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1192 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1193 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1194 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1195
1196 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1197 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1198 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1199 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1200
1201 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1202 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1203 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1204
1205 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
1206
1207 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
1208 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
1209 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
1210 is at least 512 bytes long.
1211
1212 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
1213
1214 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
1215
1216 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
1217 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
1218 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
1219 (CVE-2013-4353)
1220
1221 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
1222 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
1223 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
1224 [Steve Henson]
1225
1226 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
1227 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
1228 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
1229 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
1230 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
1231 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
1232 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
1233
1234 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
1235
1236 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
1237 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
1238 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1239
1240 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
1241
1242 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1243
1244 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1245 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1246 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1247
1248 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1249 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1250 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1251 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1252 (CVE-2013-0169)
1253 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1254
1255 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
1256 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
1257 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
1258 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
1259 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
1260 (CVE-2012-2686)
1261 [Adam Langley]
1262
1263 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1264 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1265 [Steve Henson]
1266
1267 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1268 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1269
1270 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1271 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1272 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1273 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1274 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1275
1276 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1277 [Steve Henson]
1278
1279 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
1280 if renegotiating.
1281 [Steve Henson]
1282
1283 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
1284
1285 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
1286 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
1287
1288 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1289 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1290 (CVE-2012-2333)
1291 [Steve Henson]
1292
1293 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1294 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1295 [Steve Henson]
1296
1297 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
1298 approved.
1299 [Steve Henson]
1300
1301 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
1302
1303 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
1304 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
1305 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
1306 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
1307 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
1308 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
1309 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
1310 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
1311 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
1312 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
1313 [Steve Henson]
1314
1315 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
1316 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
1317 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
1318 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
1319 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
1320 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
1321 client side.
1322 [Andy Polyakov]
1323
1324 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
1325
1326 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1327 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1328 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1329
1330 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1331 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1332 (CVE-2012-2110)
1333 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1334
1335 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
1336 [Adam Langley]
1337
1338 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
1339 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
1340
1341 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
1342 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
1343 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
1344 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
1345 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
1346 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
1347 Most broken servers should now work.
1348 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
1349 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
1350 [Steve Henson]
1351
1352 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
1353 [Andy Polyakov]
1354
1355 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
1356
1357 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
1358 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
1359 [Steve Henson]
1360
1361 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
1362 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
1363 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
1364 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
1365 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
1366 [Steve Henson]
1367
1368 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
1369 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
1370 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
1371 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
1372 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
1373 [Steve Henson]
1374
1375 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
1376 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1377
1378 *) Add support for SCTP.
1379 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1380
1381 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1382 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1383
1384 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
1385
1386 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
1387 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
1388 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
1389 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
1390 - s390x: z196 support;
1391 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
1392
1393 [Andy Polyakov]
1394
1395 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
1396 (removal of unnecessary code)
1397 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
1398
1399 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
1400 [Eric Rescorla]
1401
1402 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
1403 [Eric Rescorla]
1404
1405 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
1406 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
1407 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
1408 by Google.
1409 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1410
1411 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
1412 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
1413 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
1414 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
1415 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
1416
1417 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
1418 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
1419 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
1420
1421 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
1422 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
1423 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
1424
1425 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
1426 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
1427 implementations).
1428 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1429
1430 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
1431 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
1432 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
1433 [Steve Henson]
1434
1435 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
1436 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
1437 particular PSS.
1438 [Steve Henson]
1439
1440 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
1441 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
1442 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
1443 [Steve Henson]
1444
1445 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
1446 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
1447 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
1448 the appropriate parameters.
1449 [Steve Henson]
1450
1451 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
1452 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
1453 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
1454 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
1455 against a number of sample certificates.
1456 [Steve Henson]
1457
1458 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
1459 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
1460
1461 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
1462 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
1463
1464 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
1465 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
1466 parameters r, s.
1467 [Steve Henson]
1468
1469 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
1470 RFC3211.
1471 [Steve Henson]
1472
1473 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
1474 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
1475 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
1476 password based CMS).
1477 [Steve Henson]
1478
1479 *) Session-handling fixes:
1480 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
1481 but also support Session Tickets.
1482 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
1483 presented a ticket with an expired session.
1484 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
1485 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
1486 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
1487 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1488
1489 *) Fix PSK session representation.
1490 [Bodo Moeller]
1491
1492 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
1493
1494 This work was sponsored by Intel.
1495 [Andy Polyakov]
1496
1497 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
1498 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
1499 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
1500 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
1501 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
1502 [Steve Henson]
1503
1504 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
1505 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
1506 [Steve Henson]
1507
1508 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
1509 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
1510 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
1511 [Steve Henson]
1512
1513 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
1514 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
1515 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
1516 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
1517 [Steve Henson]
1518
1519 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
1520 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
1521 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
1522 [Steve Henson]
1523
1524 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
1525 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
1526
1527 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
1528 [Steve Henson]
1529
1530 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
1531 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
1532 [Steve Henson]
1533
1534 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1535 [Steve Henson]
1536
1537 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
1538 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
1539 [Steve Henson]
1540
1541 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
1542 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
1543 [Steve Henson]
1544
1545 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
1546 [Steve Henson]
1547
1548 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
1549 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
1550 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
1551 [Steve Henson]
1552
1553 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1554 [Steve Henson]
1555
1556 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1557 [Steve Henson]
1558
1559 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
1560 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
1561 [Steve Henson]
1562
1563 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
1564 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
1565 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
1566 [Steve Henson]
1567
1568 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
1569 [Steve Henson]
1570
1571 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
1572 and enable MD5.
1573 [Steve Henson]
1574
1575 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
1576 FIPS modules versions.
1577 [Steve Henson]
1578
1579 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
1580 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
1581 until after the certificate request message is received.
1582 [Steve Henson]
1583
1584 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
1585 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
1586 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
1587 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
1588 [Steve Henson]
1589
1590 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
1591 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
1592 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
1593 support yet and no support for client certificates.
1594 [Steve Henson]
1595
1596 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
1597 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
1598 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
1599 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
1600 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
1601 and version checking.
1602 [Steve Henson]
1603
1604 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
1605 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
1606 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
1607 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
1608 [Steve Henson]
1609
1610 *) Add SRP support.
1611 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1612
1613 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
1614 [Steve Henson]
1615
1616 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
1617 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
1618 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1619
1620 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
1621 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
1622 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
1623 [Steve Henson]
1624
1625 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
1626 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
1627
1628 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
1629 a few changes are required:
1630
1631 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
1632 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
1633 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
1634 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
1635 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
1636 [Steve Henson]
1637
1638 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1639
1640 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1641 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1642 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1643 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1644 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1645 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1646 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1647 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1648 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1649 [Steve Henson]
1650
1651 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1652 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1653 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1654 [Steve Henson]
1655
1656 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1657
1658 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1659 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1660 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1661 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1662 [Antonio Martin]
1663
1664 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1665
1666 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1667 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1668 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1669 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1670 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1671 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1672 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1673 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1674 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1675 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1676 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1677 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1678 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1679
1680 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1681 (CVE-2011-4576)
1682 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1683
1684 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1685 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1686 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1687 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1688
1689 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1690 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1691
1692 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1693 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1694 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1695 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1696
1697 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1698 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1699
1700 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1701 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1702
1703 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1704 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1705
1706 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1707 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1708 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1709
1710 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1711 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1712 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1713
1714 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1715 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1716 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1717 the last update always remained unused).
1718 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1719
1720 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1721 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1722
1723 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1724
1725 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1726 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1727 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1728
1729 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1730 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1731 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1732
1733 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1734 [Bodo Moeller]
1735
1736 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1737 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1738 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1739 [Steve Henson]
1740
1741 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1742 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1743
1744 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1745
1746 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1747
1748 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1749
1750 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1751 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1752
1753 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1754 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1755 ambiguous.
1756 [Steve Henson]
1757
1758 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1759
1760 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1761 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1762 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1763 [Steve Henson]
1764
1765 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1766 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1767 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1768 [Ben Laurie]
1769
1770 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1771
1772 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1773 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1774 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1775 [Steve Henson]
1776
1777 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1778 a DLL.
1779 [Steve Henson]
1780
1781 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1782
1783 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1784 (CVE-2010-1633)
1785 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1786
1787 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1788
1789 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1790 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1791 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1792 [Steve Henson]
1793
1794 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1795 [Steve Henson]
1796
1797 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1798 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1799 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1800
1801 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1802 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1803 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1804 [Steve Henson]
1805
1806 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1807 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1808 [Steve Henson]
1809
1810 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1811 some responders need this.
1812 [Steve Henson]
1813
1814 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1815 correctly.
1816 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1817
1818 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1819 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1820 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1821 [Steve Henson]
1822
1823 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1824 [Steve Henson]
1825
1826 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1827 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1828 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1829 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1830 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1831 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1832 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1833 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1834 [Steve Henson]
1835
1836 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1837 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1838 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1839 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1840
1841 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1842 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1843
1844 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1845 be used on C++.
1846 [Steve Henson]
1847
1848 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1849 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1850 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1851 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1852 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1853 attempting to work them out.
1854 [Steve Henson]
1855
1856 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1857 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1858 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1859 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1860 [Steve Henson]
1861
1862 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1863 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1864 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1865 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1866 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1867 [Steve Henson]
1868
1869 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1870 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1871 you can do:
1872
1873 openssl sha256 foo
1874
1875 as well as:
1876
1877 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1878
1879 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1880
1881 [Steve Henson]
1882
1883 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1884 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1885
1886 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1887 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1888
1889 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1890 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1891 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1892 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1893 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1894 [Steve Henson]
1895
1896 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1897 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1898 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1899 [Steve Henson]
1900
1901 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1902 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1903 [Steve Henson]
1904
1905 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1906 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1907
1908 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1909 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1910 [Steve Henson]
1911
1912 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1913 [Ben Laurie]
1914
1915 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1916 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1917 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1918 CONF_VALUE.
1919 [Ben Laurie]
1920
1921 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1922 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1923 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1924 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1925 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1926 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1927 [Steve Henson]
1928
1929 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1930 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1931
1932 This work was sponsored by Google.
1933 [Steve Henson]
1934
1935 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1936 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1937 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1938 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1939 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1940 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1941 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1942 default.
1943
1944 This work was sponsored by Google.
1945 [Steve Henson]
1946
1947 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1948
1949 This work was sponsored by Google.
1950 [Steve Henson]
1951
1952 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1953 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1954 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1955 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1956
1957 This work was sponsored by Google.
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1961 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1962 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1963 CRL functionality in future.
1964
1965 This work was sponsored by Google.
1966 [Steve Henson]
1967
1968 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1969
1970 This work was sponsored by Google.
1971 [Steve Henson]
1972
1973 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1974 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1975
1976 This work was sponsored by Google.
1977 [Steve Henson]
1978
1979 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1980 and URI types are currently supported.
1981
1982 This work was sponsored by Google.
1983 [Steve Henson]
1984
1985 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1986 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1987 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1988 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1989 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1990 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1991 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1992 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1993
1994 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1995 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1996 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1997
1998 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1999 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
2000 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
2001 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
2002
2003 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
2004 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
2005 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
2006 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
2007 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
2008 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
2009 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
2010 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
2011 of &errno.)
2012 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
2013
2014 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
2015 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
2016 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
2017
2018 This work was sponsored by Google.
2019 [Steve Henson]
2020
2021 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
2022 [Ben Laurie]
2023
2024 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2025 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
2026 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
2027 [Ben Laurie]
2028
2029 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
2030 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
2031 [Nick Mathewson]
2032
2033 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2034 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
2035 [Ben Laurie]
2036
2037 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
2038 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
2039 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
2040 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
2041 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
2042 content types and variants.
2043 [Steve Henson]
2044
2045 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
2046 [Steve Henson]
2047
2048 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
2049 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
2050 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
2051 files from the associated perl scripts.
2052 [Steve Henson]
2053
2054 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
2055 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
2056 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2057
2058 *) s390x assembler pack.
2059 [Andy Polyakov]
2060
2061 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
2062 "family."
2063 [Andy Polyakov]
2064
2065 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
2066 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
2067 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
2068 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
2069 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
2070 to use. For example, specify an option
2071
2072 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
2073
2074 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
2075 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
2076 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
2077 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
2078 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
2079 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
2080
2081 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
2082 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
2083 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
2084 return non-zero for success.
2085
2086 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
2087 by using
2088
2089 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
2090 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2091
2092 where
2093
2094 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
2095 void *arg;
2096
2097 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
2098 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
2099 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
2100 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
2101 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
2102 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
2103 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
2104 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
2105 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
2106
2107 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
2108 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
2109 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
2110 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
2111 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
2112 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
2113
2114 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
2115 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
2116 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
2117 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
2118 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
2119 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
2120
2121 [Bodo Moeller]
2122
2123 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
2124 MAC.
2125
2126 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2127
2128 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2129 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2130 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2131 supported.
2132
2133 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2134 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2135 SSL_SESSION.
2136
2137 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2138 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2139 with no application modification.
2140
2141 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2142 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2143
2144 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2145 or server extensions to be examined.
2146
2147 This work was sponsored by Google.
2148 [Steve Henson]
2149
2150 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
2151 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
2152 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
2153
2154 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
2155 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
2156 ciphersuite support.
2157 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
2158
2159 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
2160 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
2161 to output in BER and PEM format.
2162 [Steve Henson]
2163
2164 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
2165 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
2166 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2167 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
2168 -macopt options to dgst utility.
2169 [Steve Henson]
2170
2171 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
2172 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
2173 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
2174 utility.
2175 [Steve Henson]
2176
2177 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
2178 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
2179 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
2180 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
2181 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
2182 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
2183 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
2184 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
2185 enabled again.
2186
2187 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
2188 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
2189 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
2190 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
2191
2192 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
2193 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
2194 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
2195 the default order.
2196 [Bodo Moeller]
2197
2198 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
2199 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
2200 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
2201 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
2202 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
2203 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
2204 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
2205 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
2206 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
2207
2208 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
2209 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
2210 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
2211 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
2212 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
2213 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
2214 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
2215 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
2216 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
2217 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
2218 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
2219 kinds of kludges.
2220
2221 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
2222 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
2223 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
2224
2225 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
2226 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
2227 "CAMELLIA256".
2228 [Bodo Moeller]
2229
2230 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
2231 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
2232 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
2233 [Nils Larsch]
2234
2235 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
2236 it yet and it is largely untested.
2237 [Steve Henson]
2238
2239 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
2240 [Nils Larsch]
2241
2242 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
2243 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
2244 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
2245 [Steve Henson]
2246
2247 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
2248 [Andy Polyakov]
2249
2250 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
2251 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
2252 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
2253 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
2254 [Steve Henson]
2255
2256 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
2257 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
2258 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
2259 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
2260 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
2261 [Steve Henson]
2262
2263 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
2264 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
2265 [Cryptocom]
2266
2267 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
2268 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
2269 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
2270 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
2271 [Steve Henson]
2272
2273 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
2274 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
2275 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
2276 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
2277 [Steve Henson]
2278
2279 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
2280 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
2281 [Steve Henson]
2282
2283 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
2284 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
2285 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
2286 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
2287 [Steve Henson]
2288
2289 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
2290 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
2291 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
2292 [Steve Henson]
2293
2294 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
2295 utility.
2296 [Steve Henson]
2297
2298 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
2299 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
2300 [Steve Henson]
2301
2302 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
2303 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
2304 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
2305 if necessary.
2306 [Steve Henson]
2307
2308 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
2309 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
2310 to free up any added signature OIDs.
2311 [Steve Henson]
2312
2313 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
2314 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
2315 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
2316 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
2317 [Steve Henson]
2318
2319 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
2320 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
2321 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
2322 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
2323 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
2324 the array representation useful in a more general context.
2325 [Douglas Stebila]
2326
2327 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
2328 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
2329 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
2330 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
2331 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
2332
2333 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
2334 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
2335 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
2336 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
2337 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
2338 protocol).
2339
2340 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
2341 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
2342 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
2343 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
2344
2345 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
2346 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
2347 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
2348 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
2349 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
2350
2351 aECDH - ECDH cert
2352 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
2353 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
2354
2355 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
2356 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
2357
2358 [Bodo Moeller]
2359
2360 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
2361 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
2362 [Steve Henson]
2363
2364 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
2365 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
2366 [Steve Henson]
2367
2368 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
2369 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
2370 functional reference processing.
2371 [Steve Henson]
2372
2373 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
2374 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
2375 process.
2376 [Steve Henson]
2377
2378 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
2379 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
2380 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
2381 [Steve Henson]
2382
2383 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
2384 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
2385 application to support multiple signers.
2386 [Steve Henson]
2387
2388 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
2389 digest MAC.
2390 [Steve Henson]
2391
2392 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
2393 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
2394 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
2395 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
2396 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
2397 [Steve Henson]
2398
2399 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
2400 new API.
2401 [Steve Henson]
2402
2403 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
2404 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
2405 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
2406 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
2407 a no op.
2408 [Steve Henson]
2409
2410 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
2411 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
2412 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
2413 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
2414 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
2415 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
2416 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
2417 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
2418 [Steve Henson]
2419
2420 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
2421 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
2422 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
2423 between digests and public key types.
2424 [Steve Henson]
2425
2426 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
2427 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
2428 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
2429 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
2430 [Steve Henson]
2431
2432 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
2433 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
2434 key ASN1 method.
2435 [Steve Henson]
2436
2437 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
2438 [Steve Henson]
2439
2440 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
2441 pkeyutl.
2442 [Steve Henson]
2443
2444 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
2445 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
2446 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
2447 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
2448 pkey, genpkey.
2449 [Steve Henson]
2450
2451 *) BeOS support.
2452 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2453
2454 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
2455 manual pages.
2456 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2457
2458 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
2459 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
2460 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
2461 functionality for RSA.
2462 [Steve Henson]
2463
2464 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
2465 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
2466 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
2470 key API, doesn't do much yet.
2471 [Steve Henson]
2472
2473 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
2474 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
2475 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
2476 [Steve Henson]
2477
2478 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
2479 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2480 [Douglas Stebila]
2481
2482 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
2483 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
2484 [Steve Henson]
2485
2486 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
2487 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
2488 type.
2489 [Steve Henson]
2490
2491 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
2492 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
2493 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
2494 structure.
2495 [Steve Henson]
2496
2497 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
2498 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
2499 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
2500 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
2501 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
2502 of public and private key structures.
2503 [Steve Henson]
2504
2505 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
2506 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2507 [Douglas Stebila]
2508
2509 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
2510 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
2511 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
2512
2513 New ciphersuites:
2514 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
2515 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
2516
2517 New functions:
2518 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
2519 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
2520 SSL_get_psk_identity
2521 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
2522
2523 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
2524
2525 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
2526 and response verification functionality.
2527 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
2528
2529 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2530 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2531 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2532 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2533 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2534 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2535 server_name extension.
2536
2537 New functions (subject to change):
2538
2539 SSL_get_servername()
2540 SSL_get_servername_type()
2541 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2542
2543 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2544
2545 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2546 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2547 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2548 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2549 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2550
2551 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2552
2553 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2554 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2555 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2556 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2557 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2558 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2559 option.
2560
2561 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
2562
2563 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
2564 [Andy Polyakov]
2565
2566 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
2567 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
2568 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
2569 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
2570 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
2571 [Andy Polyakov]
2572
2573 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
2574 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
2575 macro.
2576 [Bodo Moeller]
2577
2578 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
2579 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
2580 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
2581 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
2582 [Andy Polyakov]
2583
2584 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
2585 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
2586 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
2587 using the maximum available value.
2588 [Steve Henson]
2589
2590 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
2591 in addition to the text details.
2592 [Bodo Moeller]
2593
2594 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2595 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2596 handle several customised structures at all.
2597 [Steve Henson]
2598
2599 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2600 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2601 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2602 [Steve Henson]
2603
2604 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2605 [Steve Henson]
2606
2607 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2608 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2609 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2610 [Steve Henson]
2611
2612 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2613 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2614 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2615 [Nils Larsch]
2616
2617 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2618 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2619 all fields.
2620 [Steve Henson]
2621
2622 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2623 [Steve Henson]
2624
2625 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2626 [NTT]
2627
2628 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2629
2630 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2631 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2632 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2633 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2634 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2635 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2636 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2637 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2638
2639 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2640 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2641 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2642
2643 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2644
2645 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2646 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2647
2648 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2649 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2650 [Bodo Moeller]
2651
2652 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2653 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2654 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2655 [Steve Henson]
2656
2657 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2658 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2659 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2660 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2661 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2662 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2663 [Steve Henson]
2664
2665 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2666 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2667 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2668 [Steve Henson]
2669
2670 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2671 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2672 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2673 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2674 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2675 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2676 CVE-2009-4355.
2677 [Steve Henson]
2678
2679 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2680 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2681 [Bodo Moeller]
2682
2683 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2684 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2685 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2686 [Steve Henson]
2687
2688 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2689 [Steve Henson]
2690
2691 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2692 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2693 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2694 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2695 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2696 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2697 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2698 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2699 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2700 [Steve Henson]
2701
2702 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2703 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2704 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2705 [Steve Henson]
2706
2707 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2708 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2709 [Steve Henson]
2710
2711 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2712 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2713 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2714 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2715 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2716 know what you are doing.
2717 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2718
2719 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2720 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2721 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2722 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2723 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2724 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2725 the handshake.
2726 [Steve Henson]
2727
2728 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2729 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2730 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2731 correctly.
2732 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2733
2734 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2735 warnings in other configurations.
2736 [Steve Henson]
2737
2738 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2739 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2740 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2741 systems need.
2742 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2743
2744 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2745 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2746 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2747
2748 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2749 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2750 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2751 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2752 [Steve Henson]
2753
2754 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2755 and restored.
2756 [Steve Henson]
2757
2758 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2759 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2760 clash.
2761 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2762
2763 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2764 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2765 other than a simple chain.
2766 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2767
2768 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2769 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2770 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2771 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2772 [Steve Henson]
2773
2774 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2775 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2776 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2777 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2778 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2779 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2780 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2781 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2782 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2783
2784 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2785 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2786 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2787 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2788 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2789 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2790 (CVE-2009-1377)
2791 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2792
2793 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2794 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2795 [Daniel Mentz]
2796
2797 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2798 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2799
2800 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2801 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2802
2803 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2804
2805 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2806 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2807 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2808 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2809 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2810 you're doing.
2811 [Ben Laurie]
2812
2813 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2814
2815 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2816 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2817 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2818 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2819
2820 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2821 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2822 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2823 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2824
2825 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2826 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2827 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2828 [Steve Henson]
2829
2830 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2831 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2832 level.
2833 [Steve Henson]
2834
2835 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2836 to handle some structures.
2837 [Steve Henson]
2838
2839 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2840 for a '\n'
2841 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2842
2843 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2844 [Matthieu Herrb]
2845
2846 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2847 [Steve Henson]
2848
2849 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2850 [Steve Henson]
2851
2852 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2853 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2854 chosen compiler.
2855 [Ben Laurie]
2856
2857 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2858
2859 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2860 (CVE-2008-5077).
2861 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2862
2863 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2864 [Ben Laurie]
2865
2866 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2867 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2868 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2869 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2870
2871 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2872 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2873
2874 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2875 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2876 [Bodo Moeller]
2877
2878 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2879 s_client and s_server.
2880 [Ben Laurie]
2881
2882 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2883 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2884
2885 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2886 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2887
2888 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2889 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2890 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2891 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2892 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2893 [Bodo Moeller]
2894
2895 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2896
2897 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2898 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2899 [PR #1679]
2900
2901 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2902 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2903 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2904
2905 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2906 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2907 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2908 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2909
2910 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2911 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2912
2913 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2914
2915 *) Various precautionary measures:
2916
2917 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2918
2919 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2920 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2921 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2922
2923 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2924 outside the expected range.
2925
2926 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2927 builds.
2928
2929 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2930
2931 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2932 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2933 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2934
2935 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2936 [Steve Henson]
2937
2938 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2939 [Huang Ying]
2940
2941 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2942
2943 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2944 [Steve Henson]
2945
2946 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2947 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2948 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2949
2950 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2951 [Steve Henson]
2952
2953 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2954 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2955 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2956 files.
2957 [Steve Henson]
2958
2959 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2960
2961 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2962 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2963 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2964 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2965
2966 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2967 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2968 [Joe Orton]
2969
2970 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2971
2972 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2973 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2974 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2975
2976 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2977
2978 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2979 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2980 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2981 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2982 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2983
2984 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2985 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2986 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2987 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2988 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2989 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2990 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2991
2992 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2993
2994 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2995 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2996 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2997 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2998 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2999
3000 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
3001 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
3002
3003 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
3004 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
3005 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
3006 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
3007 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
3008
3009 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
3010
3011 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
3012 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
3013 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
3014 sets may exist with different names.
3015 [Steve Henson]
3016
3017 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
3018 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
3019 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
3020 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
3021 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
3022 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
3023 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
3024 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
3025 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
3026 implementation.
3027 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
3028
3029 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
3030 implemention in the following ways:
3031
3032 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
3033 hard coded.
3034
3035 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
3036 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
3037 ignored for embedded content.
3038
3039 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
3040 with the enable-cms configuration option.
3041 [Steve Henson]
3042
3043 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
3044 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
3045 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
3046 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
3047
3048 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
3049 uncompresses any data passed through it.
3050 [Steve Henson]
3051
3052 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
3053 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
3054 [Steve Henson]
3055
3056 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
3057 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
3058 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
3059 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
3060 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
3061 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
3062 data.
3063 [Steve Henson]
3064
3065 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
3066 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
3067 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3068
3069 *) Netware support:
3070
3071 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
3072 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
3073 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
3074 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
3075 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
3076 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
3077 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
3078 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
3079 platform
3080 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
3081 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
3082 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
3083 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
3084 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
3085 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
3086 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
3087
3088 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
3089 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
3090 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
3091 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
3092 to s_client and s_server.
3093 [Steve Henson]
3094
3095 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
3096
3097 *) Fix various bugs:
3098 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
3099 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
3100 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
3101 + Fix ia64 assembler code
3102 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3103
3104 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
3105
3106 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
3107 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
3108 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
3109 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
3110 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
3111 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
3112 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
3113 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
3114 [Andy Polyakov]
3115
3116 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
3117 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
3118 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
3119 Steve Henson]
3120
3121 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3122 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3123 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3124 supported.
3125
3126 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3127 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3128 SSL_SESSION.
3129
3130 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3131 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3132 with no application modification.
3133
3134 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3135 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3136
3137 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3138 or server extensions to be examined.
3139
3140 This work was sponsored by Google.
3141 [Steve Henson]
3142
3143 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3144 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3145 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3146 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3147 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3148 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3149 server_name extension.
3150
3151 New functions (subject to change):
3152
3153 SSL_get_servername()
3154 SSL_get_servername_type()
3155 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3156
3157 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3158
3159 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3160 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3161 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3162 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3163 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3164
3165 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3166
3167 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3168 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3169 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3170 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3171 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
3172 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3173 option.
3174
3175 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
3176
3177 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
3178 [Steve Henson]
3179
3180 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
3181 [Andy Polyakov]
3182
3183 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
3184 (which previously caused an internal error).
3185 [Bodo Moeller]
3186
3187 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
3188 [Ben Laurie]
3189
3190 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
3191 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
3192
3193 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
3194 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
3195 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
3196
3197 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
3198 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
3199 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
3200 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
3201
3202 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3203 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3204 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
3205 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
3206
3207 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
3208 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
3209 information. For detailed background information, see
3210 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
3211 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
3212 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
3213 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
3214 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
3215 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
3216 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
3217 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
3218 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
3219 remove a conditional branch.
3220
3221 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
3222 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
3223 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
3224 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
3225 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
3226 remains as a deprecated alias.
3227
3228 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
3229 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
3230 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
3231 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
3232
3233 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
3234 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
3235 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
3236 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
3237 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
3238 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
3239 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
3240 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
3241
3242 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
3243
3244 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
3245 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
3246 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
3247 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
3248 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
3249 with applications using a single external cache for quite
3250 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
3251 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
3252 in a different context.
3253 [Bodo Moeller]
3254
3255 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3256 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3257 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3258 [Bodo Moeller]
3259
3260 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
3261 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
3262 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
3263
3264 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
3265
3266 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
3267 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
3268 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3269 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
3270 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
3271 [Victor Duchovni]
3272
3273 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
3274 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
3275 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
3276 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
3277 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
3278 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
3279 [Bodo Moeller]
3280
3281 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3282 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3283 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3284 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3285 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3286 [Bodo Moeller]
3287
3288 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
3289 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
3290
3291 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3292 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3293 Improve header file function name parsing.
3294 [Steve Henson]
3295
3296 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
3297 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
3298 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
3299
3300 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
3301
3302 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3303 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3304 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3305
3306 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3307 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3308
3309 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3310 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3311
3312 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3313 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3314 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3315
3316 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
3317 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
3318 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
3319 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
3320 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
3321 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
3322 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
3323 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
3324 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
3325
3326 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
3327 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
3328 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
3329 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
3330 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
3331
3332 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
3333 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
3334 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
3335 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
3336 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
3337 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
3338 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
3339 multiple values to extend the available space.
3340
3341 [Bodo Moeller]
3342
3343 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
3344
3345 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3346 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3347
3348 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3349 [Ben Laurie]
3350
3351 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3352 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3353 undesirable limitations.
3354 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3355
3356 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3357 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3358 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3359 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3360 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3361 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3362 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3363 [Bodo Moeller]
3364
3365 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3366
3367 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3368 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3369 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3370
3371 The latter two were purportedly from
3372 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3373 appear there.
3374
3375 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3376 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3377 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3378 [Bodo Moeller]
3379
3380 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3381 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3382 [Bodo Moeller]
3383
3384 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3385 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3386 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3387 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3388
3389 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3390 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3391 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3392 [NTT]
3393
3394 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3395 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3396 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3397 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3398 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3399 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3400 [Steve Henson]
3401
3402 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3403
3404 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3405 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3406 [Steve Henson]
3407
3408 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3409 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3410
3411 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3412 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3413 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3414 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3415 [Douglas Stebila]
3416
3417 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3418 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3419 [Steve Henson]
3420
3421 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3422 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3423 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3424 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3425 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3426 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3427 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3428 can't be loaded.
3429 [Steve Henson]
3430
3431 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3432 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3433 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3434 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3435 [Steve Henson]
3436
3437 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3438 under VC++ build system.
3439 [Steve Henson]
3440
3441 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3442 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3443 [Richard Levitte]
3444
3445 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3446
3447 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3448 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3449 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3450 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3451 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3452
3453 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3454 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3455 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3456
3457 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3458 [Steve Henson]
3459
3460 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3461 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3462 [Nils Larsch]
3463
3464 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3465 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3466
3467 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3468 [Nick Mathewson]
3469
3470 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3471 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3472
3473 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3474 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3475 [Steve Henson]
3476
3477 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3478 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3479 smime utility.
3480 [Steve Henson]
3481
3482 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3483
3484 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3485 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3486
3487 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3488 [Richard Levitte]
3489
3490 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3491 key into the same file any more.
3492 [Richard Levitte]
3493
3494 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3495 [Andy Polyakov]
3496
3497 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3498 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3499
3500 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3501 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3502 [Richard Levitte]
3503
3504 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3505 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3506 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3507 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3508 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3509 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3510
3511 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3512 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3513 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3514 [Steve Henson]
3515
3516 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3517 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3518 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3519 - add new function for parameter creation
3520 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3521 BN_BLINDING parameters
3522 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3523 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3524 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3525 threads.
3526 [Nils Larsch]
3527
3528 *) Add support for DTLS.
3529 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3530
3531 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3532 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3533 [Walter Goulet]
3534
3535 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3536 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3537 [Nils Larsch]
3538
3539 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3540 the apps/openssl applications.
3541 [Nils Larsch]
3542
3543 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3544 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3545 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3546 [Ben Laurie]
3547
3548 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3549 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3550
3551 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3552 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3553
3554 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3555 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3556 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3557 avoid this algorithm.)
3558
3559 [Bodo Moeller]
3560
3561 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3562 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3563 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3564 [Richard Levitte]
3565
3566 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3567 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3568 [Andy Polyakov]
3569
3570 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3571 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3572 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3573 pod file:
3574
3575 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3576
3577 The blank line is mandatory.
3578
3579 [Steve Henson]
3580
3581 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3582 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3583 sources.
3584 [Steve Henson]
3585
3586 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3587 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3588
3589 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3590 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3591 to support policy checking and print out.
3592 [Steve Henson]
3593
3594 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3595 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3596 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3597 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3598
3599 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3600 [Geoff Thorpe]
3601
3602 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3603 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3604
3605 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3606 implementation contributed by IBM.
3607 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3608
3609 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3610 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3611 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3612 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3613
3614 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3615 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3616
3617 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3618 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3619 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3620 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3621 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3622 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3623 [Steve Henson]
3624
3625 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3626 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3627 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3628 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3629 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3630 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3631 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3632 [Geoff Thorpe]
3633
3634 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3635 [Steve Henson]
3636
3637 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3638 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3639 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3640 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3641 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3642 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3643 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3644 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3645 [Steve Henson]
3646
3647 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3648 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3649 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3650 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3651 [Steve Henson]
3652
3653 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3654 syntax:
3655
3656 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3657 [Steve Henson]
3658
3659 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3660 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3661 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3662 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3663 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3664 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3665 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3666 [Geoff Thorpe]
3667
3668 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3669 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3670 [Geoff Thorpe]
3671
3672 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3673 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3674 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3675 [Steve Henson]
3676
3677 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3678 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3679 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3680 below).
3681 [Geoff Thorpe]
3682
3683 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3684 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3685 [Richard Levitte]
3686
3687 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3688 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3689 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3690 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3691 [Geoff Thorpe]
3692
3693 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3694 initialised value as BN_new().
3695 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3696
3697 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3698 [Steve Henson]
3699
3700 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3701 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3702 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3703 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3704 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3705 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3706 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3707 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3708 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3709 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3710 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3711 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3712 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3713 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3714 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3715
3716 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3717 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3718 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3719 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3720 [Geoff Thorpe]
3721
3722 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3723 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3724 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3725 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3726 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3727 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3728 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3729 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3730 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3731 [Geoff Thorpe]
3732
3733 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3734 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3735 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3736 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3737 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3738 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3739 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3740 [Geoff Thorpe]
3741
3742 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3743 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3744 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3745 these have been updated also.
3746 [Geoff Thorpe]
3747
3748 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3749 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3750 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3751 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3752 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3753 functions.
3754 [Steve Henson]
3755
3756 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3757 structure of type "other".
3758 [Steve Henson]
3759
3760 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3761 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3762 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3763 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3764 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3765 situation in the script.
3766 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3767
3768 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3769 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3770 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3771 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3772 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3773 used as premaster secret.
3774 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3775
3776 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3777 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3778 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3779
3780 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3781 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3782
3783 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3784 control of the error stack.
3785 [Richard Levitte]
3786
3787 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3788 [Richard Levitte]
3789
3790 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3791 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3792 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3793 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3794 [Richard Levitte]
3795
3796 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3797 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3798 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3799 [Richard Levitte]
3800
3801 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3802 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3803 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3804 a memory area.
3805 [Richard Levitte]
3806
3807 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3808 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3809 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3810 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3811 [Richard Levitte]
3812
3813 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3814 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3815 the following flags are defined:
3816
3817 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3818 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3819 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3820 number.
3821
3822 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3823 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3824 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3825 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3826 returns zero.
3827 [Richard Levitte]
3828
3829 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3830 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3831 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3832 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3833 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3834 [Richard Levitte]
3835
3836 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3837 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3838 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3839 [Richard Levitte]
3840
3841 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3842 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3843 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3844 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3845 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3846 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3847 [Richard Levitte]
3848
3849 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3850 req and dirName.
3851 [Steve Henson]
3852
3853 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3854 [Steve Henson]
3855
3856 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3857 [Steve Henson]
3858
3859 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3860 [Steve Henson]
3861
3862 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3863 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3864 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3865 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3866 default implementation more easily.
3867 [Geoff Thorpe]
3868
3869 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3870 in config files.
3871 [Steve Henson]
3872
3873 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3874 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3875 [Richard Levitte]
3876
3877 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3878 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3879 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3880 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3881
3882 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3883 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3884 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3885 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3886 [Steve Henson]
3887
3888 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3889 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3890 to do it.
3891 [Richard Levitte]
3892
3893 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3894 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3895 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3896 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3897 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3898 scalar * generator).
3899 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3900
3901 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3902 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3903 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3904 correctly.
3905 [Steve Henson]
3906
3907 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3908 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3909 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3910 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3911 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3912 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3913 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3914 linker additions, eg;
3915 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3916 [Geoff Thorpe]
3917
3918 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3919 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3920 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3921 [Geoff Thorpe]
3922
3923 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3924 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3925 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3926 via PR#459)
3927 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3928
3929 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3930 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3931 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3932 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3933 [Geoff Thorpe]
3934
3935 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3936 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3937 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3938 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3939 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3940 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3941 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3942 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3943 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3944 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3945
3946 Example for using the new callback interface:
3947
3948 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3949 void *my_arg = ...;
3950 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3951
3952 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3953
3954 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3955 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3956 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3957 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3958 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3959 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3960 */
3961
3962 [Geoff Thorpe]
3963
3964 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3965 available to TLS with the number defined in
3966 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3967 [Richard Levitte]
3968
3969 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3970 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3971
3972 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3973 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3974 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3975 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3976
3977 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3978 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3979
3980 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3981 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3982 well.
3983 [Richard Levitte]
3984
3985 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3986 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3987 [Richard Levitte]
3988
3989 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3990 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3991 and a macro that behave like
3992 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3993
3994 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3995 [Nils Larsch]
3996
3997 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3998 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3999 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
4000 if applicable.
4001 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4002
4003 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
4004 [Bodo Moeller]
4005
4006 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
4007 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
4008 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
4009 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
4010 directory engines/.
4011 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
4012 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
4013 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
4014 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
4015 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
4016 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
4017 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
4018 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
4019
4020 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
4021 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
4022 [Richard Levitte]
4023
4024 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
4025 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
4026
4027 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
4028 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
4029 files while avoiding the low level API.
4030
4031 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
4032 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
4033 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
4034 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
4035
4036 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
4037 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
4038 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
4039 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
4040 instead of the low level API.
4041 [Steve Henson]
4042
4043 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
4044 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
4045 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
4046 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
4047 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
4048 PKCS#7 code.
4049
4050 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
4051 down to the template encoder.
4052 [Steve Henson]
4053
4054 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
4055 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
4056 [Bodo Moeller]
4057
4058 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
4059 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
4060 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
4061 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4062
4063 *) Add ECDH engine support.
4064 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4065
4066 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
4067 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4068
4069 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
4070 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
4071 [Bodo Moeller]
4072
4073 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
4074 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
4075 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
4076 [Bodo Moeller]
4077
4078 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
4079 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
4080
4081 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4082 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4083
4084 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
4085 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
4086 New EC_METHOD:
4087
4088 EC_GF2m_simple_method
4089
4090 New API functions:
4091
4092 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
4093 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
4094 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
4095 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4096 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4097 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
4098
4099 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
4100 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
4101 enable it).
4102
4103 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
4104 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
4105 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
4106 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
4107 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
4108 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
4109 various internal method names.)
4110
4111 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
4112 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
4113
4114 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4115 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4116
4117 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
4118 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
4119
4120 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
4121 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
4122 methods are undefined.
4123
4124 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4125 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4126
4127 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
4128 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
4129 length of the modulus.
4130
4131 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4132 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4133
4134 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
4135 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
4136
4137 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4138 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4139
4140 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
4141 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
4142 used) in the following functions [macros]:
4143
4144 BN_GF2m_add
4145 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
4146 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
4147 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
4148 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
4149 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
4150 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
4151 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
4152 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
4153 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
4154
4155 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
4156 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
4157
4158 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
4159 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
4160 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
4161 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
4162 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
4163 where
4164 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
4165 This applies to the following functions:
4166
4167 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
4168 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
4169 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
4170 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
4171 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
4172 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
4173 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
4174 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
4175 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4176 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4177
4178 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
4179
4180 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4181 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4182
4183 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
4184
4185 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
4186 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
4187 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
4188 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
4189 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
4190
4191 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4192 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4193
4194 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
4195 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
4196 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
4197
4198 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
4199 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
4200
4201 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
4202 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
4203 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
4204 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
4205 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4206
4207 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
4208 functions
4209 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
4210 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
4211 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
4212 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
4213 These control ASN1 encoding details:
4214 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
4215 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
4216 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
4217 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
4218 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
4219 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
4220 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
4221
4222 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
4223 functions
4224 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
4225 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
4226 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
4227 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
4228 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4229
4230 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
4231 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
4232 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
4233 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4234
4235 *) Add functions
4236 EC_POINT_point2bn()
4237 EC_POINT_bn2point()
4238 EC_POINT_point2hex()
4239 EC_POINT_hex2point()
4240 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
4241 EC_POINT_oct2point().
4242 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4243
4244 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
4245 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
4246 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
4247 EC_GROUP_get_order()
4248 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
4249 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
4250 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
4251 adding different types of curves.
4252 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
4253
4254 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
4255 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
4256 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
4257 [Bodo Moeller]
4258
4259 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
4260 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
4261
4262 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
4263 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
4264 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
4265 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4266
4267 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
4268
4269 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
4270 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
4271
4272 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
4273 library. Most notably,
4274 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
4275 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
4276 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
4277 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
4278 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
4279 extracted before the specific public key;
4280 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
4281 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4282
4283 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
4284 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
4285 function
4286 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
4287 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
4288 EC_get_builtin_curves().
4289 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
4290 accessed via
4291 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
4292 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
4293 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
4294
4295 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4296 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4297 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4298 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4299 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4300 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4301 differing sizes.
4302 [Richard Levitte]
4303
4304 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
4305
4306 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
4307 sensitive data.
4308 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
4309
4310 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4311 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4312 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4313 [Bodo Moeller]
4314
4315 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
4316 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4317 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
4318 [Victor Duchovni]
4319
4320 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
4321 [Steve Henson]
4322
4323 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
4324 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
4325 [Steve Henson]
4326
4327 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
4328 run algorithm test programs.
4329 [Steve Henson]
4330
4331 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
4332 [Steve Henson]
4333
4334 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4335 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4336 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4337 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4338 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4339 [Bodo Moeller]
4340
4341 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4342 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4343 [Steve Henson]
4344
4345 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
4346
4347 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4348 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4349 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4350
4351 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4352 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4353
4354 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4355 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4356
4357 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4358 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4359 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4360
4361 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4362 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4363 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4364 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4365 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4366 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4367 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4368 [Bodo Moeller]
4369
4370 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4371
4372 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4373 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4374
4375 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4376 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4377 undesirable limitations.
4378 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4379
4380 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4381
4382 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4383 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4384 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4385
4386 The latter two were purportedly from
4387 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4388 appear there.
4389
4390 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4391 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4392 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4393 [Bodo Moeller]
4394
4395 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4396 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4397 [Bodo Moeller]
4398
4399 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4400
4401 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4402 module in FIPS mode.
4403 [Steve Henson]
4404
4405 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4406 [Steve Henson]
4407
4408 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4409 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4410 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4411 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4412 [Steve Henson]
4413
4414 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4415
4416 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4417 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4418 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4419 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4420 the difference induced by this change.
4421 [Andy Polyakov]
4422
4423 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4424
4425 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4426 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4427 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4428 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4429 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4430
4431 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4432 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4433 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4434
4435 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4436 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4437 [Steve Henson]
4438
4439 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4440 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4441 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4442 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4443 biased k.)
4444 [Bodo Moeller]
4445
4446 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4447 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4448 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4449 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4450 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4451
4452 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4453 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4454 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4455 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4456 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4457 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4458
4459 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4460
4461 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4462 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4463 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4464 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4465 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4466 [Bodo Moeller]
4467
4468 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4469 clients need.
4470 [Steve Henson]
4471
4472 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4473 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4474 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4475 [Steve Henson]
4476
4477 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4478 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4479 structures constant.
4480 [Steve Henson]
4481
4482 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4483
4484 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4485 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4486
4487 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4488 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4489 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4490 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4491 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4492 some needed definitions.
4493 [Steve Henson]
4494
4495 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4496 [Ulf Möller]
4497
4498 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4499 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4500 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4501 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4502 [Richard Levitte]
4503
4504 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4505
4506 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4507 server and client random values. Previously
4508 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4509 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4510
4511 This change has negligible security impact because:
4512
4513 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4514 data.
4515
4516 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4517 handshake.
4518
4519 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4520 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4521 values.
4522
4523 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4524 to our attention.
4525
4526 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4527
4528 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4529 [Ulf Möller]
4530
4531 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4532 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4533 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4534
4535 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4536 [Steve Henson]
4537
4538 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4539 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4540 [Andy Polyakov]
4541
4542 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4543 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4544 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4545
4546 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4547 [Steve Henson]
4548
4549 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4550 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4551 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4552 certificates.
4553 [Steve Henson]
4554
4555 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4556 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4557 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4558 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4559
4560 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4561 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4562 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4563 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4564 been given)
4565 [Richard Levitte]
4566
4567 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4568
4569 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4570 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4571 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4572 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4573 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4574 [Steve Henson]
4575
4576 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4577 [Steve Henson]
4578
4579 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4580 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4581
4582 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4583 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4584 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4585 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4586 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4587 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4588 rather than being initialized to 1.
4589 [Steve Henson]
4590
4591 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4592
4593 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4594 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4595 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4596
4597 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4598 (CVE-2004-0112)
4599 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4600
4601 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4602 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4603 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4604 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4605 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4606 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4607 [Richard Levitte]
4608
4609 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4610 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4611 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4612 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4613 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4614 for these cases.
4615 [Steve Henson]
4616
4617 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4618 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4619 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4620 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4621 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4622 [Steve Henson]
4623
4624 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4625 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4626 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4627 < 0.9.7.
4628 [Steve Henson]
4629
4630 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4631 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4632
4633 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4634 [Steve Henson]
4635
4636 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4637
4638 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4639
4640 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4641 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4642
4643 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4644
4645 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4646 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4647
4648 [Steve Henson]
4649
4650 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4651 exiting on the first error in a request.
4652 [Steve Henson]
4653
4654 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4655 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4656 specifications.
4657 [Steve Henson]
4658
4659 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4660 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4661 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4662 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4663
4664 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4665 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4666 [Richard Levitte]
4667
4668 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4669 blocks during encryption.
4670 [Richard Levitte]
4671
4672 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4673 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4674 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4675 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4676 certain size.
4677 [Steve Henson]
4678
4679 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4680 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4681 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4682 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4683 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4684 parser.
4685 [Steve Henson]
4686
4687 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4688
4689 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4690 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4691 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4692 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4693 [Bodo Moeller]
4694
4695 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4696 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4697 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4698 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4699 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4700
4701 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4702 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4703 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4704 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4705 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4706 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4707 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4708 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4709 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4710 [Bodo Moeller]
4711
4712 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4713 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4714 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4715 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4716 [Geoff Thorpe]
4717
4718 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4719 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4720 [Ulf Moeller]
4721
4722 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4723
4724 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4725 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4726 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4727 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4728 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4729
4730 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4731 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4732 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4733
4734 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4735 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4736 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4737 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4738 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4739
4740 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4741 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4742 used by default when no-err is given.
4743 [Richard Levitte]
4744
4745 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4746 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4747
4748 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4749 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4750 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4751 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4752 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4753
4754 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4755 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4756 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4757 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4758
4759 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4760
4761 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4762
4763 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4764
4765 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4766 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4767 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4768 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4769 root is omitted).
4770 [Steve Henson]
4771
4772 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4773 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4774
4775 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4776 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4777 [Steve Henson]
4778
4779 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4780 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4781 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4782 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4783 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4784
4785 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4786 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4787 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4788 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4789 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4790 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4791 followup to PR #377.
4792 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4793
4794 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4795 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4796 [Andy Polyakov]
4797
4798 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4799 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4800 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4801 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4802
4803 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4804
4805 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4806 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4807
4808 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4809 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4810 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4811 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4812 client and server.
4813 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4814 PR #377.
4815 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4816
4817 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4818 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4819 removed entirely.
4820 [Richard Levitte]
4821
4822 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4823 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4824 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4825 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4826 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4827 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4828 of libcrypto.
4829 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4830 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4831 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4832 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4833 have to be made anyway).
4834 [Richard Levitte]
4835
4836 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4837 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4838 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4839 [Steve Henson]
4840
4841 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4842 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4843 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4844 [Richard Levitte]
4845
4846 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4847 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4848 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4849
4850 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4851 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4852 edit numbers of the version.
4853 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4854
4855 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4856 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4857 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4858
4859 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4860 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4861
4862 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4863 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4864 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4865
4866 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4867 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4868
4869 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4870 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4871
4872 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4873 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4874
4875 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4876 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4877
4878 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4879 overflows.
4880 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4881
4882 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4883 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4884 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4885
4886 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4887 representations in a platform independent manner.
4888 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4889
4890 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4891 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4892 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4893
4894 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4895 indents.
4896 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4897
4898 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4899 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4900
4901 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4902 full. Fixed.
4903 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4904
4905 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4906 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4907 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4908
4909 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4910 unconditionally).
4911 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4912
4913 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4914 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4915
4916 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4917 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4918
4919 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4920 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4921
4922 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4923 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4924
4925 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4926 CBCParameter.
4927 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4928
4929 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4930 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4931
4932 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4933 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4934
4935 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4936 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4937 exploitable.
4938 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4939
4940 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4941 the 0.9.6 release series:
4942
4943 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4944 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4945 (CVE-2002-0657)
4946 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4947
4948 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4949 [Richard Levitte]
4950
4951 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4952 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4953
4954 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4955 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4956
4957 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4958 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4959 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4960 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4961
4962 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4963 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4964 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4965
4966 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4967 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4968 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4969 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4970
4971 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4972 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4973 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4974 some local tweaks:
4975
4976 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4977 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4978 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4979 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4980 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4981 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4982 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4983 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4984 done
4985
4986 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4987 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4988 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4989 [Richard Levitte]
4990
4991 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4992 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4993 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4994 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4995 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4996
4997 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4998 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4999
5000 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
5001 error in AES-CFB decryption.
5002 [Richard Levitte]
5003
5004 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
5005 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
5006 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
5007 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
5008 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
5009 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
5010 [Steve Henson]
5011
5012 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
5013 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
5014 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
5015 [Steve Henson]
5016
5017 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
5018 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
5019 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5020
5021 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
5022 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
5023 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
5024 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
5025 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
5026 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
5027 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
5028 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5029
5030 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
5031 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
5032 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
5033 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
5034 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
5035 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
5036 [Steve Henson]
5037
5038 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
5039 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
5040 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
5041 declaration has been changed from
5042 int (*cb)()
5043 into
5044 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
5045 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
5046 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
5047 has been changed into
5048 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
5049
5050 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
5051 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
5052 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
5053
5054 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
5055 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
5056
5057 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
5058 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
5059 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
5060 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
5061 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
5062 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
5063 always load it have also been added.
5064 [Steve Henson]
5065
5066 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
5067 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
5068 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5069
5070 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
5071
5072 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
5073 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
5074 because it couldn't be used for anything.
5075
5076 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
5077 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
5078 command line option can be used to specify an
5079 alternative file.
5080 [Steve Henson]
5081
5082 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
5083 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
5084 [Steve Henson]
5085
5086 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
5087 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
5088 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
5089 [Steve Henson]
5090
5091 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
5092 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5093 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
5094 to work with the new engine framework.
5095 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
5096
5097 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
5098 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5099 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
5100 to work with the new engine framework.
5101 [Richard Levitte]
5102
5103 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
5104 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
5105 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
5106
5107 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
5108 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
5109
5110 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
5111 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
5112 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
5113 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
5114 FORMAT_IISSGC.
5115 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5116
5117 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5118 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5119
5120 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
5121 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
5122
5123 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
5124 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
5125 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
5126 [Ben Laurie]
5127
5128 *) Add new functions
5129 ERR_peek_last_error
5130 ERR_peek_last_error_line
5131 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
5132 These are similar to
5133 ERR_peek_error
5134 ERR_peek_error_line
5135 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
5136 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
5137 still in the error queue.
5138 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
5139
5140 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
5141 like:
5142 default_algorithms = ALL
5143 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
5144 [Steve Henson]
5145
5146 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
5147 [Steve Henson]
5148
5149 *) New experimental application configuration code.
5150 [Steve Henson]
5151
5152 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
5153 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
5154 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
5155 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5156
5157 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
5158 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
5159
5160 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
5161 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5162
5163 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
5164 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
5165 [Bodo Moeller]
5166
5167 *) New functions/macros
5168
5169 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
5170 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
5171 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
5172 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
5173
5174 to request calling a callback function
5175
5176 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
5177 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
5178
5179 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
5180 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
5181 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
5182 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
5183 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
5184 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
5185 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
5186 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
5187 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
5188 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
5189
5190 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
5191 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
5192 [Bodo Moeller]
5193
5194 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
5195 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
5196 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
5197 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
5198 the configuration scripts.
5199
5200 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
5201 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
5202 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
5203
5204 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
5205 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5206
5207 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
5208 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
5209 when reusing an existing buffer.
5210 [Bodo Moeller]
5211
5212 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
5213 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
5214 [Steve Henson]
5215
5216 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
5217 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
5218 [Ben Laurie]
5219
5220 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
5221 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
5222 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
5223 has the same effect.
5224 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5225
5226 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
5227 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
5228 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
5229 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
5230 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
5231 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
5232 exception.
5233
5234 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
5235 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
5236 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
5237 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
5238
5239 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
5240 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
5241 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
5242 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
5243
5244 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
5245 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
5246 won't work.
5247
5248 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
5249 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
5250 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
5251 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
5252 default), and then completely removed.
5253 [Richard Levitte]
5254
5255 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
5256 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
5257 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
5258 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
5259 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
5260 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
5261 particular extension is supported.
5262 [Steve Henson]
5263
5264 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
5265 to retain compatibility with existing code.
5266 [Steve Henson]
5267
5268 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
5269 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
5270 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
5271 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
5272 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
5273 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
5274 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
5275 requires the destination to be valid.
5276
5277 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
5278 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
5279 [Steve Henson]
5280
5281 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
5282 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
5283 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
5284 [Bodo Moeller]
5285
5286 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
5287 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
5288
5289 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
5290 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
5291 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
5292 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
5293 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
5294 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
5295 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
5296 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
5297 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
5298 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
5299 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
5300 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
5301 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
5302 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
5303 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
5304 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
5305 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
5306 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
5307 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
5308 the new code.
5309 [Geoff Thorpe]
5310
5311 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
5312 [Steve Henson]
5313
5314 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
5315 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
5316 become part of libeay.num as well.
5317 [Richard Levitte]
5318
5319 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
5320 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
5321 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
5322 false once a handshake has been completed.
5323 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
5324 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
5325 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
5326 client has followed the request.)
5327 [Bodo Moeller]
5328
5329 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
5330 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
5331 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
5332 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
5333
5334 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
5335 more bits available for options that should not be part of
5336 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
5337 [Bodo Moeller]
5338
5339 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
5340 [Steve Henson]
5341
5342 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
5343 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
5344 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
5345 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5346
5347 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5348 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5349 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5350
5351 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5352 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5353 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5354 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5355 [Geoff Thorpe]
5356
5357 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5358 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5359 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5360 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5361 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5362 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5363 [Geoff Thorpe]
5364
5365 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5366 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5367 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5368 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5369 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5370 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5371 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5372 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5373 [Geoff Thorpe]
5374
5375 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5376 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5377 [Geoff Thorpe]
5378
5379 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5380 [Ben Laurie]
5381
5382 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5383 md_data void pointer.
5384 [Ben Laurie]
5385
5386 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5387 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5388 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5389 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5390 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5391 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5392 [Ben Laurie]
5393
5394 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5395 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5396 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5397 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5398 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5399 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5400 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5401 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5402 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5403 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5404 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5405 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5406 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5407 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5408 rather than letting it slide.
5409
5410 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5411 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5412 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5413 [Geoff Thorpe]
5414
5415 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5416 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5417 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5418 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5419 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5420 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5421 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5422 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5423 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5424 [Geoff Thorpe]
5425
5426 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5427 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5428 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5429 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5430 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5431
5432 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5433 [Geoff Thorpe]
5434
5435 *) Add EVP test program.
5436 [Ben Laurie]
5437
5438 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5439 [Ben Laurie]
5440
5441 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5442 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5443 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5444 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5445 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5446 [Steve Henson]
5447
5448 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5449 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5450 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5451 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5452 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5453 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5454 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5455
5456 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5457 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5458 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5459 Usage example:
5460
5461 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5462
5463 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5464 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5465 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5466 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5467 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5468
5469 [Ben Laurie]
5470
5471 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5472 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5473 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5474 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5475 anyway): E.g.,
5476
5477 des_key_schedule ks;
5478
5479 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5480 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5481
5482 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5483 [Ben Laurie]
5484
5485 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5486 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5487 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5488 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5489 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5490 functions prevents this.
5491 [Steve Henson]
5492
5493 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5494 [Ben Laurie]
5495
5496 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5497 correct _ecb suffix.
5498 [Ben Laurie]
5499
5500 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5501 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5502 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5503 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5504 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5505 [Steve Henson]
5506
5507 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5508 [Richard Levitte]
5509
5510 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5511 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5512 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5513 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5514
5515 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5516 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5517
5518 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5519 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5520 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5521 via Richard Levitte]
5522
5523 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5524 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5525 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5526 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5527 [Geoff Thorpe]
5528
5529 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5530 Before:
5531 encrypt
5532 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
5533 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
5534 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k

5540 After:

5545 [Ben Laurie]
5546
5547 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5548 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5549
5550 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5551 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5552 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5553 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5554 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5555 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5556 [Steve Henson]
5557
5558 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5559 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5560 [Richard Levitte]
5561
5562 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5563 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5564 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5565 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5566
5567 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5568 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5569 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5570 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5571 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5572 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5573 callback.
5574 [Richard Levitte]
5575
5576 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5577 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5578 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5579 and interrupts/cancellations.
5580 [Richard Levitte]
5581
5582 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5583 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5584 [Steve Henson]
5585
5586 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5587 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5588 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5589
5590 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5591 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5592 kind of callback.
5593 [Richard Levitte]
5594
5595 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5596 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5597 than this minimum value is recommended.
5598 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5599
5600 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5601 that are easily reachable.
5602 [Richard Levitte]
5603
5604 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5605 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5606
5607 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5608
5609 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5610 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5611 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5612 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5613 [Steve Henson]
5614
5615 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5616 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5617 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5618 [Steve Henson]
5619
5620 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5621 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5622 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5623 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5624 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5625 internally such as S/MIME.
5626
5627 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5628 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5629 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5630
5631 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5632 applications.
5633 [Steve Henson]
5634
5635 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5636 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5637 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5638 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5639
5640 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5641
5642 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5643
5644 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5645 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5646 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5647 handling.
5648 [Steve Henson]
5649
5650 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5651 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5652 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5653 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5654 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5655 a window system and the like.
5656 [Richard Levitte]
5657
5658 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5659 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5660 [Geoff]
5661
5662 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5663 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5664 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5665 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5666 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5667 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5668 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5669 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5670 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5671 ENGINE structure.
5672 [Geoff]
5673
5674 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5675 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5676 tag cache.
5677 [Steve Henson]
5678
5679 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5680 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5681 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5682 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5683 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5684 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5685 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5686 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5687 [Geoff]
5688
5689 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5690 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5691 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5692 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5693 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5694 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5695 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5696 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5697 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5698 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5699 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5700 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5701 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5702 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5703 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5704 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5705 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5706 [Geoff]
5707
5708 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5709 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5710 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5711 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5712 internal engine_int.h header.
5713 [Geoff]
5714
5715 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5716 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5717 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5718 modify their own ones).
5719 [Geoff]
5720
5721 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5722 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5723 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5724 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5725 later on via ctrl() commands.
5726 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5727 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5728 structural references.
5729 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5730 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5731 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5732 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5733 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5734 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5735 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5736 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5737 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5738 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5739 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5740 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5741 [Geoff]
5742
5743 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5744 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5745 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5746 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5747 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5748 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5749 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5750 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5751 [Bodo Moeller]
5752
5753 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5754 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5755 [Steve Henson]
5756
5757 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5758 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5759 [Steve Henson]
5760
5761 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5762 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5763 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5764 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5765 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5766 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5767 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5768 [Steve Henson]
5769
5770 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5771 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5772 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5773 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5774 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5775
5776 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5777 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5778 generator).
5779 [Bodo Moeller]
5780
5781 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5782
5783 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5784 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5785 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5786
5787 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5788 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5789
5790 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5791 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5792 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5793
5794 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5795 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5796
5797 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5798 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5799
5800 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5801
5802 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5803 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5804 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5805 [Bodo Moeller]
5806
5807 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5808 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5809 [Richard Levitte]
5810
5811 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5812 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5813 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5814 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5815 is 40 of more characters long.
5816 [Steve Henson]
5817
5818 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5819 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5820 pointers.
5821 [Steve Henson]
5822
5823 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5824 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5825 [Bodo Moeller]
5826
5827 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5828 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5829 might.
5830 [Steve Henson]
5831
5832 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5833
5834 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5835 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5836
5837 ASN1 error codes
5838 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5839 ...
5840 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5841 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5842 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5843 ...
5844 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5845 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5846
5847 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5848 [Bodo Moeller]
5849
5850 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5851 suffices.
5852 [Bodo Moeller]
5853
5854 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5855 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5856 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5857 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5858 and
5859 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5860
5861 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5862 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5863
5864 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5865 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5866 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5867 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5868 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5869 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5870
5871 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5872 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5873
5874 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5875 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5876
5877 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5878 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5879
5880 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5881 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5882 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5883 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5884
5885 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5886 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5887
5888 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5889 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5890
5891 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5892 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5893 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5894 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5895 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5896 [Richard Levitte]
5897
5898 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5899 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5900 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5901 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5902 [Steve Henson]
5903
5904 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5905 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5906 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5907 trust settings.
5908 [Steve Henson]
5909
5910 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5911 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5912 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5913 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5914 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5915 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5916 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5917 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5918 ocsp utility.
5919 [Steve Henson]
5920
5921 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5922 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5923 [Steve Henson]
5924
5925 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5926 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5927 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5928 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5929 [Steve Henson]
5930
5931 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5932 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5933 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5934 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5935 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5936 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5937 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5938 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5939 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5940 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5941 [Steve Henson]
5942
5943 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5944 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5945 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5946 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5947 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5948 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5949 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5950 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5951
5952 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5953 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5954 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5955 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5956 [Richard Levitte]
5957
5958 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5959 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5960 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5961 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5962 opensslconf.h.
5963 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5964 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5965 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5966 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5967 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5968 what is available.
5969 [Richard Levitte]
5970
5971 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5972 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5973 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5974 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5975 auto incremented.
5976 [Steve Henson]
5977
5978 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5979 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5980 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5981 [Steve Henson]
5982
5983 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5984 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5985 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5986 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5987 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5988 [Steve Henson]
5989
5990 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5991 [Steve Henson]
5992
5993 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5994 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5995 option to ocsp utility.
5996 [Steve Henson]
5997
5998 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5999 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
6000 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
6001 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
6002 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
6003 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
6004 the request is nonce-less.
6005 [Steve Henson]
6006
6007 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
6008 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
6009 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
6010 [Bodo Moeller]
6011
6012 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
6013 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
6014 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
6015 [Steve Henson]
6016
6017 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
6018 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
6019 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
6020 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
6021 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
6022 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6023
6024 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
6025 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
6026 appear to exist.
6027 [Steve Henson]
6028
6029 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
6030 additional certificates supplied.
6031 [Steve Henson]
6032
6033 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
6034 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
6035 signature against.
6036 [Richard Levitte]
6037
6038 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
6039 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
6040 AES OIDs.
6041
6042 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
6043 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
6044 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
6045 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
6046 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
6047 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
6048 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
6049 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
6050 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6051
6052 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
6053 request to response.
6054 [Steve Henson]
6055
6056 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
6057 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
6058 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
6059 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
6060 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
6061 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
6062 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
6063 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
6064 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
6065 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
6066 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
6067 [Steve Henson]
6068
6069 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
6070 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
6071 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
6072 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
6073 [Steve Henson]
6074
6075 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
6076 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6077
6078 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
6079 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
6080 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
6081 [Steve Henson]
6082
6083 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
6084 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
6085 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
6086 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6087 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6088
6089 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
6090 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
6091 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
6092 [Steve Henson]
6093
6094 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
6095 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
6096 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
6097 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
6098 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
6099 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
6100 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6101 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6102
6103 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
6104 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
6105 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
6106 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
6107 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
6108 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
6109 [Steve Henson]
6110
6111 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
6112 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
6113 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
6114 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
6115 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
6116 printout format cleaned up.
6117 [Steve Henson]
6118
6119 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
6120 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
6121 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
6122 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
6123 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
6124 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
6125 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
6126 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
6127 [Steve Henson]
6128
6129 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
6130 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
6131 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
6132 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
6133 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
6134 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
6135 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
6136 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
6137 [Steve Henson]
6138
6139 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
6140 extensions from a separate configuration file.
6141 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
6142 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
6143 section to use.
6144 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6145
6146 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
6147 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
6148 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
6149 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
6150 [Steve Henson]
6151
6152 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
6153 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
6154 the given serial number (according to the index file).
6155 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
6156 in the index file.
6157 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6158
6159 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
6160 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
6161 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
6162 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6163
6164 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
6165 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
6166
6167 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
6168 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
6169 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
6170 [Steve Henson]
6171
6172 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
6173 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
6174 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
6175 [Bodo Moeller]
6176
6177 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
6178 file name and line number information in additional arguments
6179 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
6180 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
6181 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
6182 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
6183 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
6184 functions are provided:
6185
6186 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
6187 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
6188 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
6189 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
6190
6191 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
6192 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
6193 extended allocation function is enabled.
6194 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
6195 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
6196 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
6197
6198 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
6199 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
6200 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
6201 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
6202 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
6203 [Geoff Thorpe]
6204
6205 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
6206 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
6207 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
6208 be queried.
6209 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
6210 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
6211 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
6212 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6213
6214 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
6215 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
6216 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
6217 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
6218 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
6219 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
6220 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
6221 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
6222 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
6223 [Richard Levitte]
6224
6225 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
6226 provide utility functions which an application needing
6227 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
6228 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
6229 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
6230
6231 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
6232 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
6233 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
6234 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
6235 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
6236 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
6237 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
6238 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
6239 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
6240
6241 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
6242 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
6243 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
6244 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
6245 [Steve Henson]
6246
6247 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
6248 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
6249 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
6250 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
6251 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
6252 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
6253 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
6254 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
6255 will be added elsewhere.
6256 [Steve Henson]
6257
6258 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
6259 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
6260 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
6261 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
6262 [Steve Henson]
6263
6264 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
6265 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
6266 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
6267 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
6268 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
6269 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
6270 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
6271 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
6272 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
6273 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
6274 to produce the required SET OF.
6275 [Steve Henson]
6276
6277 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
6278 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
6279 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
6280 [Richard Levitte]
6281
6282 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
6283 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
6284 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
6285 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
6286 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
6287 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
6288 [Steve Henson]
6289
6290 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
6291 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
6292 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
6293 [Steve Henson]
6294
6295 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
6296 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
6297 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
6298 [Richard Levitte]
6299
6300 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
6301 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
6302 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
6303 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
6304 code will still work when these eventually go away.
6305 [Steve Henson]
6306
6307 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
6308 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
6309 [Steve Henson]
6310
6311 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
6312 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
6313 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
6314 certifcates and CRLs.
6315 [Steve Henson]
6316
6317 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
6318 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
6319 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
6320 [Steve Henson]
6321
6322 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
6323 entries for variables.
6324 [Steve Henson]
6325
6326 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
6327 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
6328 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
6329 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
6330 [Bodo Moeller]
6331
6332 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
6333 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
6334 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
6335 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
6336 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
6337 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
6338 [Bodo Moeller]
6339
6340 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
6341 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
6342
6343 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
6344 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
6345 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
6346 [Steve Henson]
6347
6348 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6349 print routines.
6350 [Steve Henson]
6351
6352 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6353 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6354 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6355 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6356 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6357 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6358 [Steve Henson]
6359
6360 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6361 [Steve Henson]
6362
6363 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6364 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6365 for now but they will eventually go away.
6366 [Steve Henson]
6367
6368 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6369 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6370 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6371 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6372 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6373 has also been converted to the new form.
6374 [Steve Henson]
6375
6376 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6377 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6378 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6379 for negative moduli.
6380 [Bodo Moeller]
6381
6382 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6383 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6384 [Bodo Moeller]
6385
6386 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6387 set.
6388 [Bodo Moeller]
6389
6390 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6391 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6392 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6393 type-specific callbacks.
6394 [Geoff Thorpe]
6395
6396 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6397 RFC 2712.
6398 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6399 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6400
6401 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6402 in sections depending on the subject.
6403 [Richard Levitte]
6404
6405 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6406 Windows.
6407 [Richard Levitte]
6408
6409 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6410 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6411 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6412 be handled deterministically).
6413 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6414
6415 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6416 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6417 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6418 [Bodo Moeller]
6419
6420 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6421 [Bodo Moeller]
6422
6423 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6424 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6425 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6426 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6427 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6428 [Bodo Moeller]
6429
6430 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6431 sign of the number in question.
6432
6433 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6434
6435 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6436 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6437 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6438 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6439 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6440 [Bodo Moeller]
6441
6442 *) New function BN_swap.
6443 [Bodo Moeller]
6444
6445 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6446 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6447 results on negative inputs.
6448 [Bodo Moeller]
6449
6450 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6451 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6452 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6453 [Bodo Moeller]
6454
6455 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6456 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6457 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6458 and add new functions:
6459
6460 BN_nnmod
6461 BN_mod_sqr
6462 BN_mod_add
6463 BN_mod_add_quick
6464 BN_mod_sub
6465 BN_mod_sub_quick
6466 BN_mod_lshift1
6467 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6468 BN_mod_lshift
6469 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6470
6471 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6472
6473 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6474 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6475
6476 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6477 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6478 be reduced modulo m.
6479 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6480
6481 #if 0
6482 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6483 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6484 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6485
6486 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6487 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6488 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6489 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6490 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6491 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6492 differing sizes.
6493 [Richard Levitte]
6494 #endif
6495
6496 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6497 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6498 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6499 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6500 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6501
6502 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6503 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6504 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6505 cause any problems.
6506 [Bodo Moeller]
6507
6508 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6509 [Richard Levitte]
6510
6511 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6512 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6513 [Richard Levitte]
6514
6515 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6516 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6517 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6518 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6519 time)
6520 [Richard Levitte]
6521
6522 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6523 [Richard Levitte]
6524
6525 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6526 [Richard Levitte]
6527
6528 *) Add the following functions:
6529
6530 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6531 ENGINE_load_chil()
6532 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6533 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6534 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6535
6536 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6537 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6538 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6539 libraries unless it's really needed.
6540
6541 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6542 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6543 declarations (they differed!).
6544 [Richard Levitte]
6545
6546 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6547 [Richard Levitte]
6548
6549 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6550 [Richard Levitte]
6551
6552 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6553 [Bodo Moeller]
6554
6555 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6556 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6557 [Richard Levitte]
6558
6559 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6560 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6561 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6562
6563 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6564 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6565 [Richard Levitte]
6566
6567 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6568 [Richard Levitte]
6569
6570 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6571 [Richard Levitte]
6572
6573 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6574 [Ben Laurie]
6575
6576 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6577 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6578 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6579
6580 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6581 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6582 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6583 different shared library filenames on each system.
6584 [Geoff Thorpe]
6585
6586 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6587 [Richard Levitte]
6588
6589 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6590 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6591 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6592 of two sections.
6593 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6594
6595 *) NCONF changes.
6596 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6597 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6598 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6599 binary backward compatibility.
6600 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6601 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6602 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6603 LDAP server.
6604 [Richard Levitte]
6605
6606 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6607 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6608 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6609 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6610 this case.
6611 [Steve Henson]
6612
6613 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6614 [Ben Laurie]
6615
6616 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6617 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6618 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6619 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6620 set.
6621 [Steve Henson]
6622
6623 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6624 [Richard Levitte]
6625
6626 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6627
6628 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6629 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6630 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6631
6632 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6633
6634 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6635
6636 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6637 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6638 [Steve Henson]
6639
6640 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6641
6642 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6643
6644 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6645 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6646
6647 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6648 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6649
6650 [Steve Henson]
6651
6652 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6653 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6654 specifications.
6655 [Steve Henson]
6656
6657 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6658 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6659 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6660 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6661
6662 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6663 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6664 [Richard Levitte]
6665
6666 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6667
6668 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6669 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6670 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6671 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6672 [Bodo Moeller]
6673
6674 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6675 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6676 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6677 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6678 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6679
6680 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6681 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6682 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6683 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6684 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6685 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6686 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6687 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6688 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6689 [Bodo Moeller]
6690
6691 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6692
6693 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6694 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6695 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6696 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6697 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6698
6699 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6700 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6701 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6702
6703 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6704
6705 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6706 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6707 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6708 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6709 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6710 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6711 [Geoff Thorpe]
6712
6713 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6714 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6715 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6716 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6717 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6718 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6719
6720 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6721 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6722 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6723
6724 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6725 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6726 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6727 EVP_cleanup().
6728 [Richard Levitte]
6729
6730 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6731 being properly terminated.
6732 [Richard Levitte]
6733
6734 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6735 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6736 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6737 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6738
6739 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6740 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6741 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6742 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6743 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6744 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6745 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6746 change.
6747 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6748
6749 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6750 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6751 [Bodo Moeller]
6752
6753 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6754 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6755 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6756 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6757 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6758 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6759 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6760 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6761
6762 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6763 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6764 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6765 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6766 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6767
6768 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6769 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6770 [Steve Henson]
6771
6772 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6773
6774 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6775 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6776 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6777
6778 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6779
6780 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6781 and get fix the header length calculation.
6782 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,

6786 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6787 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6788 assertions could call abort()).
6789 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6790
6791 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6792
6793 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6794 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6795 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6796 supplied buffer.
6797 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6798
6799 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6800 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6801 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6802 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6803
6804 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6805 [Nils Larsch]
6806
6807 *) New option
6808 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6809 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6810 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6811
6812 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6813 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6814 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6815 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6816 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6817 applications.
6818 [Bodo Moeller]
6819
6820 *) Changes in security patch:
6821
6822 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6823 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6824 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6825 F30602-01-2-0537.
6826
6827 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6828 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6829 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6830 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6831 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6832
6833 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6834 happen in practice.
6835 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6836
6837 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6838 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6839 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6840
6841 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6842 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6843 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6844
6845 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6846 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6847 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6848
6849 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6850
6851 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6852 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6853 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6854
6855 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6856 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6857
6858 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6859 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6860 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6861 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6862 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6863 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6864 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6865
6866 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6867 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6868 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6869 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6870 [Bodo Moeller]
6871
6872 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6873 [Bodo Moeller]
6874
6875 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6876 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6877 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6878 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6879 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6880 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6881
6882 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6883 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6884 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6885 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6886 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6887 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6888
6889 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6890 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6891 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6892 BN_generate_prime().)
6893
6894 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6895 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6896 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6897 better.
6898 [Bodo Moeller]
6899
6900 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6901 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6902 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6903
6904 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6905 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6906 when using non-blocking I/O.
6907 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6908
6909 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6910 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6911
6912 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6913 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6914 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6915
6916 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6917 configuration for the versions before that.
6918 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6919
6920 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6921 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6922 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6923 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6924 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6925
6926 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6927 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6928 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6929 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6930
6931 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6932 value is 0.
6933 [Richard Levitte]
6934
6935 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6936 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6937 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6938
6939 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6940 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6941
6942 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6943 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6944 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6945 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6946 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6947 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6948 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6949 session cache.
6950
6951 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6952 using a local variable.
6953 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6954
6955 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6956 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6957 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6958
6959 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6960 [Richard Levitte]
6961
6962 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6963 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6964
6965 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6966 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6967 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6968
6969 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6970
6971 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6972 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6973 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6974 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6975 [Bodo Moeller]
6976
6977 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6978 present.
6979 [Steve Henson]
6980
6981 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6982 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6983 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6984 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6985 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6986
6987 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6988 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6989 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6990
6991 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6992 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6993 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6994
6995 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6996 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6997 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6998 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6999
7000 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
7001 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
7002 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
7003 modules).
7004 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
7005
7006 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7007 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
7008 from 0.9.7.
7009 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
7010
7011 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7012 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
7013 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7014 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
7015
7016 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7017 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
7018 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7019 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
7020
7021 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
7022 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
7023
7024 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
7025 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
7026 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
7027 [Bodo Moeller]
7028
7029 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
7030 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
7031 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
7032 become invalid.
7033 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
7034
7035 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
7036 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
7037 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
7038 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
7039 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
7040 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
7041 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
7042 [Bodo Moeller]
7043
7044 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
7045 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
7046 one of the SSL handshake functions.
7047 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
7048
7049 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
7050 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
7051 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
7052 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
7053 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
7054 the client will at least see that alert.
7055 [Bodo Moeller]
7056
7057 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
7058 correctly.
7059 [Bodo Moeller]
7060
7061 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
7062 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
7063 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7064
7065 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
7066 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
7067 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
7068 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
7069 HelloRequest.
7070
7071 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
7072 before just sending a HelloRequest.
7073 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
7074
7075 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
7076 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
7077 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
7078 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
7079 may leak via logfiles.)
7080
7081 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
7082 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
7083 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
7084 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
7085 the legal range.
7086 [Bodo Moeller]
7087
7088 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
7089 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7090 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7091
7092 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
7093 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
7094 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
7095 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
7096 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
7097 [Bodo Moeller]
7098
7099 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
7100 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
7101
7102 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
7103 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
7104 followed by modular reduction.
7105 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
7106
7107 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
7108 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
7109 [Bodo Moeller]
7110
7111 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
7112 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
7113 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
7114 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
7115 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7116
7117 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
7118 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7119
7120 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
7121 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
7122 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7123
7124 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
7125 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
7126 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
7127 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
7128 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
7129 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
7130 automatically.
7131 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
7132
7133 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
7134 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
7135 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
7136 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
7137 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
7138
7139 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
7140 [Andy Polyakov]
7141
7142 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
7143 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
7144 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
7145 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
7146 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
7147 to allow the necessary settings.
7148 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7149
7150 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
7151 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
7152 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
7153 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
7154 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7155
7156 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
7157 dh->length and always used
7158
7159 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
7160
7161 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
7162 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
7163 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
7164 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
7165 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
7166 dh->length.
7167
7168 So switch back to
7169
7170 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
7171
7172 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
7173 otherwise.
7174 [Bodo Moeller]
7175
7176 *) In
7177
7178 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
7179 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
7180 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
7181 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
7182
7183 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
7184 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
7185 always reject numbers >= n.
7186 [Bodo Moeller]
7187
7188 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
7189 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
7190 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
7191 variable) is not atomic.
7192 [Bodo Moeller]
7193
7194 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
7195 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
7196 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
7197 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
7198
7199 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
7200 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
7201
7202 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
7203 little-endian MIPS.
7204 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
7205
7206 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
7207 [Richard Levitte]
7208
7209 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
7210
7211 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
7212 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
7213 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
7214 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
7215 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
7216 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
7217 to traverse all of 'state'.
7218
7219 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
7220 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
7221 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
7222
7223 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
7224 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
7225
7226 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
7227 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
7228 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
7229 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
7230 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
7231 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
7232 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
7233 further strengthens the PRNG.
7234 [Bodo Moeller]
7235
7236 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
7237 [Andy Polyakov]
7238
7239 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
7240 an error message in this case.
7241 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7242
7243 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
7244 [Steve Henson]
7245
7246 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
7247 positive and less than q.
7248 [Bodo Moeller]
7249
7250 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
7251 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
7252 that itself.
7253 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
7254
7255 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
7256 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
7257 [Bodo Moeller]
7258
7259 *) Fix OAEP check.
7260 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7261
7262 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
7263 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
7264 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
7265 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
7266 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
7267 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
7268 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
7269 paper.)
7270
7271 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
7272 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
7273 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
7274 detect the supposedly ignored error.
7275
7276 Both problems are now fixed.
7277 [Bodo Moeller]
7278
7279 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
7280 (previously it was 1024).
7281 [Bodo Moeller]
7282
7283 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
7284 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
7285 [Steve Henson]
7286
7287 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
7288 [Steve Henson]
7289
7290 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
7291 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
7292 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
7293 [Steve Henson]
7294
7295 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
7296 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
7297 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
7298 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
7299 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
7300 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
7301 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
7302 environment variables.
7303
7304 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
7305 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
7306 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
7307 [Bodo Moeller]
7308
7309 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
7310 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
7311 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
7312 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
7313 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
7314 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
7315 [Bodo Moeller]
7316
7317 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
7318 versions of 'test'.
7319 [Bodo Moeller]
7320
7321 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
7322
7323 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
7324 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
7325
7326 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
7327 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
7328 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
7329 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
7330 CygWin.
7331 [Richard Levitte]
7332
7333 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
7334 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
7335 amount of data available.
7336 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
7337 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7338
7339 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
7340 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
7341 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
7342 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
7343 [Bodo Moeller]
7344
7345 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
7346 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7347 and UnixWare.
7348 [Richard Levitte]
7349
7350 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7351 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7352 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7353 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
7354 [Ulf Moeller]
7355
7356 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7357 [Andy Polyakov]
7358
7359 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7360 [Richard Levitte]
7361
7362 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7363 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7364 [Steve Henson]
7365 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7366
7367 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7368 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7369 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7370 (but broken) behaviour.
7371 [Steve Henson]
7372
7373 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7374 it when found.
7375 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7376
7377 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7378 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7379 [Bodo Moeller]
7380
7381 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7382 did not exist.
7383 [Bodo Moeller]
7384
7385 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7386 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7387
7388 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7389 [Richard Levitte]
7390
7391 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7392 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7393 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7394
7395 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7396 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7397 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7398 [Steve Henson]
7399
7400 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7401 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7402 [Ulf Moeller]
7403
7404 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7405 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7406
7407 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7408
7409 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7410
7411 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7412 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7413 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7414 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7415 [Bodo Moeller]
7416
7417 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7418 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7419
7420 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7421 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7422 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7423
7424 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7425 was empty.
7426 [Steve Henson]
7427 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7428
7429 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7430 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7431 but the code is actually correct.
7432 [Steve Henson]
7433
7434 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7435 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7436 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7437 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7438 and leaves the highest bit random.
7439 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7440
7441 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7442 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7443 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7444 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7445 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7446 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7447 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7448 [Bodo Moeller]
7449
7450 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7451 [Ulf Moeller]
7452
7453 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7454 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7455 [Steve Henson]
7456
7457 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7458 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7459 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7460 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7461 headers.
7462 [Richard Levitte]
7463
7464 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7465 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7466 and break the signature.
7467 [Steve Henson]
7468 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7469
7470 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7471 DH ciphersuites.
7472 [Steve Henson]
7473
7474 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7475 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7476 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7477 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7478 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7479 [Bodo Moeller]
7480
7481 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7482 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7483
7484 *) ./config script fixes.
7485 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7486
7487 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7488 [Bodo Moeller]
7489
7490 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7491 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7492 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7493 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7494 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7495
7496 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7497 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7498 [Bodo Moeller]
7499
7500 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7501 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7502 [Steve Henson]
7503
7504 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7505 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7506 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7507 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7508
7509 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7510 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7511
7512 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7513 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7514 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7515 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7516 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7517
7518 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7519 [Bodo Moeller]
7520
7521 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7522 [Ulf Möller]
7523
7524 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7525 [Ulf Möller]
7526
7527 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7528 [Bodo Moeller]
7529
7530 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7531 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7532 [Bodo Moeller]
7533
7534 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7535 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7536 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7537 result of the server certificate verification.)
7538 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7539
7540 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7541 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7542 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7543 [Bodo Moeller]
7544
7545 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7546 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7547 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7548 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7549 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7550 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7551 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7552 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7553 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7554 [Bodo Moeller]
7555
7556 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7557 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7558 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7559 happening the other way round.
7560 [Geoff Thorpe]
7561
7562 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7563 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7564 [Bodo Moeller]
7565
7566 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7567 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7568 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7569 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7570 [Richard Levitte]
7571
7572 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7573 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7574
7575 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7576
7577 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7578 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7579 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7580 that.
7581
7582 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7583
7584 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7585
7586 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7587 static ones.
7588 [Richard Levitte]
7589
7590 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7591
7592 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7593 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7594 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7595 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7596 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7597
7598 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7599 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7600 matter what.
7601 [Richard Levitte]
7602
7603 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7604 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7605
7606 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7607
7608 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7609 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7610 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7611 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7612 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7613 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7614 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7615 by the Finished messages.
7616 [Bodo Moeller]
7617
7618 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7619 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7620
7621 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7622 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7623 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7624 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7625 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7626 appropriately.
7627 [Steve Henson]
7628
7629 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7630 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7631 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7632 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7633 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7634 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7635 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7636 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7637 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7638 together.
7639 [Steve Henson]
7640
7641 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7642 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7643 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7644 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7645
7646 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7647 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7648 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7649 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7650 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7651 the answer.
7652
7653 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7654 been tested well enough.
7655 [Richard Levitte]
7656
7657 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7658 it can return incorrect results.
7659 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7660 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7661 [Bodo Moeller]
7662
7663 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7664 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7665 include zero length content when signing messages.
7666 [Steve Henson]
7667
7668 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7669 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7670 [Bodo Möller]
7671
7672 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7673 [Richard Levitte]
7674
7675 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7676 wrong sign.
7677 [Ulf Möller]
7678
7679 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7680 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7681 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7682 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7683 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7684 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7685 [Richard Levitte]
7686
7687 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7688 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7689
7690 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7691 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7692
7693 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7694 random number < q in the DSA library.
7695 [Ulf Möller]
7696
7697 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7698 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7699 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7700 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7701 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7702 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7703 just makes things more complicated.)
7704 [Bodo Moeller]
7705
7706 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7707 from EGD.
7708 [Ben Laurie]
7709
7710 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7711 work better on such systems.
7712 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7713
7714 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7715 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7716 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7717 [Steve Henson]
7718
7719 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7720 if there was more than one signature.
7721 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7722
7723 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7724 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7725 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7726 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7727 [Richard Levitte]
7728
7729 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7730 rather than always using the current time.
7731 [Steve Henson]
7732
7733 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7734 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7735 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7736 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7737 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7738 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7739
7740 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7741 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7742
7743 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7744
7745 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7746 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7747 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7748 the same hash value.
7749
7750 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7751 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7752 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7753 with X509_STORE internally.
7754
7755 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7756 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7757
7758 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7759 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7760 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7761 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7762 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7763 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7764 entirely (maybe later...).
7765
7766 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7767
7768 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7769 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7770 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7771 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7772 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7773 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7774 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7775 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7776
7777 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7778 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7779
7780 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7781 to customise the verify behaviour.
7782 [Steve Henson]
7783
7784 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7785 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7786 [Steve Henson]
7787
7788 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7789 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7790 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7791 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7792 request is improperly encoded.
7793 [Steve Henson]
7794
7795 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7796 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7797 BIO_write(b, ...).
7798
7799 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7800 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7801
7802 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7803 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7804 words set to zero.)
7805 [Bodo Moeller]
7806
7807 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7808 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7809 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7810 [Bodo Moeller]
7811
7812 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7813 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7814 BIO/fp routines also added.
7815 [Steve Henson]
7816
7817 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7818 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7819
7820 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7821 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7822 demos/state_machine.
7823 [Ben Laurie]
7824
7825 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7826 generation and verification.
7827 [Steve Henson]
7828
7829 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7830 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7831 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7832 encode and decode it manually.
7833 [Steve Henson]
7834
7835 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7836 compile under VC++.
7837 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7838
7839 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7840 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7841 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7842 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7843
7844 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7845 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7846 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7847 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7848 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7849 [Steve Henson]
7850
7851 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7852 [Richard Levitte]
7853
7854 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7855 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7856 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7857
7858 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7859 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7860 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7861 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7862 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7863 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7864 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7865 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7866
7867 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7868 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7869
7870 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7871
7872 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7873 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7874 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7875
7876 [Richard Levitte]
7877
7878 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7879 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7880 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7881 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7882 [Richard Levitte]
7883
7884 *) MD4 implemented.
7885 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7886
7887 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7888 [Richard Levitte]
7889
7890 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7891 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7892 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7893 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7894 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7895 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7896 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7897 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7898 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7899 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7900 short or long names are found.
7901 [Steve Henson]
7902
7903 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7904 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7905
7906 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7907 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7908 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7909 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7910
7911 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7912 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7913 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7914 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7915 [Bodo Moeller]
7916
7917 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7918 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7919 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7920 [Richard Levitte]
7921
7922 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7923 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7924 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7925 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7926 to allow the various flags to be set.
7927 [Steve Henson]
7928
7929 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7930 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7931 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7932 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7933 dates to be checked.
7934 [Steve Henson]
7935
7936 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7937 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7938 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7939 [Steve Henson]
7940
7941 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7942 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7943 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7944 [Steve Henson]
7945
7946 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7947 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7948 [Bodo Moeller]
7949
7950 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7951 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7952 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7953 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7954 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7955 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7956 [Richard Levitte]
7957
7958 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7959 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7960 Random Numbers.
7961 [Ulf Möller]
7962
7963 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7964 DSA key.
7965 [Steve Henson]
7966
7967 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7968 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7969 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7970 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7971 form signing output easier to verify.
7972 [Steve Henson]
7973
7974 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7975 [Steve Henson]
7976
7977 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7978 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7979 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7980 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7981 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7982 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7983 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7984 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7985 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7986 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7987 [Steve Henson]
7988
7989 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7990
7991 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7992 the syntax given in objects.README.
7993 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7994 obj_mac.h.
7995 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7996 obj_mac.h.
7997
7998 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7999 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
8000 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
8001 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
8002 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
8003 consistent name changes.
8004 [Richard Levitte]
8005
8006 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
8007 [Bodo Moeller]
8008
8009 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
8010 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
8011 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
8012 environment variable, or the default random state file.
8013 [Richard Levitte]
8014
8015 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
8016 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
8017 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
8018 of safestack.h .
8019 [Steve Henson]
8020
8021 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
8022 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
8023 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
8024 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
8025 [Steve Henson]
8026
8027 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
8028 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
8029 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
8030 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
8031 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
8032 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
8033 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
8034 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
8035 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
8036 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
8037 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
8038 [Steve Henson]
8039
8040 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
8041 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
8042 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
8043 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
8044 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
8045 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
8046 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
8047 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
8048 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
8049 algorithm to openssl-dev.
8050 [Steve Henson]
8051
8052 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
8053 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
8054 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
8055 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
8056
8057 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
8058 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
8059 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
8060 omit any duplicate addresses.
8061 [Steve Henson]
8062
8063 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
8064 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
8065 [Bodo Moeller]
8066
8067 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
8068 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
8069 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
8070 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
8071 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
8072 [Bodo Moeller]
8073
8074 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
8075 software:
8076 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
8077 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
8078 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
8079 Free => OPENSSL_free
8080 [Richard Levitte]
8081
8082 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
8083 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
8084 [Bodo Moeller]
8085
8086 *) CygWin32 support.
8087 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
8088
8089 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
8090 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
8091 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
8092 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
8093 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
8094 approach.
8095 [Geoff Thorpe]
8096
8097 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
8098 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
8099 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
8100 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
8101 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
8102 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
8103 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
8104 [Geoff Thorpe]
8105
8106 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
8107 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
8108 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
8109 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
8110 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
8111 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
8112 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
8113 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
8114 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
8115 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
8116 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
8117 [Bodo Moeller]
8118
8119 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
8120 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
8121 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
8122 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
8123 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
8124
8125 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
8126 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
8127 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
8128 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
8129 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
8130
8131 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
8132 ciphers.
8133
8134 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
8135 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
8136 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
8137 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
8138
8139 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
8140
8141 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
8142 of macros.
8143
8144 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
8145 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
8146 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
8147 flags.
8148
8149 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
8150 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
8151 any installed hardware versions can.
8152 [Steve Henson]
8153
8154 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
8155 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
8156 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
8157 number.
8158 [Bodo Moeller]
8159
8160 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
8161 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
8162 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
8163 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
8164 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
8165
8166 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
8167 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
8168 [Steve Henson]
8169
8170 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
8171 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
8172 [Richard Levitte]
8173
8174 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
8175 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
8176 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
8177 features.
8178 [Steve Henson]
8179
8180 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
8181 [Ulf Möller]
8182
8183 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
8184 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
8185 but no ssl client purpose.
8186 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
8187
8188 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
8189 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
8190 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
8191 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
8192 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
8193 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
8194 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
8195 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
8196 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
8197 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
8198 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
8199 [Steve Henson]
8200
8201 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
8202 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
8203 be obtained from the error queue.
8204 [Bodo Moeller]
8205
8206 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
8207 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
8208 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
8209 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
8210 [Bodo Moeller]
8211
8212 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
8213 [Ulf Möller]
8214
8215 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
8216 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
8217 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
8218 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
8219 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
8220 [Geoff Thorpe]
8221
8222 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
8223 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
8224 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
8225 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
8226 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
8227 [Geoff Thorpe]
8228
8229 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
8230 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
8231 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
8232 may not be NULL.
8233 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
8234
8235 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
8236 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
8237 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
8238 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
8239 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
8240 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
8241 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
8242 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
8243 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
8244 or "the configuration storage API"...
8245
8246 The new configuration file reading functions are:
8247
8248 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
8249 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
8250
8251 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
8252
8253 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
8254
8255 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
8256 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
8257 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
8258 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
8259 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
8260 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
8261 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
8262
8263 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
8264 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
8265 [Richard Levitte]
8266
8267 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
8268 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
8269 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
8270 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
8271 [Bodo Moeller]
8272
8273 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
8274 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
8275 them in a portable way.
8276 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
8277
8278 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
8279
8280 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
8281
8282 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
8283 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
8284
8285 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
8286 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
8287 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
8288 <attili@amaxo.com>]
8289
8290 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
8291 was larger than the MD block size.
8292 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
8293
8294 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
8295 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
8296 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
8297 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
8298 components.
8299 [Steve Henson]
8300
8301 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
8302 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
8303 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
8304
8305 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
8306 discouraged.
8307 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
8308
8309 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
8310 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
8311 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
8312 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
8313 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
8314 Additional arguments are always ignored.
8315
8316 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
8317 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
8318
8319 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
8320 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
8321 [Bodo Moeller]
8322
8323 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
8324 [Bodo Moeller]
8325
8326 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
8327 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
8328 its own key.
8329 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
8330 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
8331 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
8332 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
8333 [Bodo Moeller]
8334
8335 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
8336 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
8337 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
8338 does not suppress any output.
8339 [Richard Levitte]
8340
8341 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
8342 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
8343 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
8344 with all the associated security issues.
8345
8346 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8347 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8348 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8349 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8350 use the value in the default purpose.
8351 [Steve Henson]
8352
8353 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8354 and fix a memory leak.
8355 [Steve Henson]
8356
8357 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8358 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8359 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8360 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8361 [Bodo Moeller]
8362
8363 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8364 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8365 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8366 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8367 [Bodo Moeller]
8368
8369 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8370 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8371 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8372 [Bodo Moeller]
8373
8374 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8375 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8376 [Bodo Moeller]
8377
8378 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8379 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8380 which was free.
8381 [Steve Henson]
8382
8383 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8384 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8385 [Bodo Moeller]
8386
8387 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8388 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8389 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8390 [Bodo Moeller]
8391
8392 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8393 number generation fails.
8394 [Bodo Moeller]
8395
8396 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8397 [Bodo Moeller]
8398
8399 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8400 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8401
8402 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8403 [Ulf Möller]
8404
8405 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8406 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8407
8408 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8409 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8410
8411 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8412
8413 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8414 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8415 [Steve Henson]
8416
8417 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8418 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8419
8420 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8421 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8422 [Ulf Möller]
8423
8424 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8425 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8426 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8427 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8428 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8429 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8430
8431 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8432 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8433 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8434 for example.
8435 [Steve Henson]
8436
8437 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8438 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8439 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8440 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8441 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8442 counter, some don't.)
8443 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8444 counters or duplicate objects.
8445 [Steve Henson]
8446
8447 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8448 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8449 [Steve Henson]
8450
8451 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8452 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8453 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8454
8455 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8456 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8457 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8458 or -rand.
8459 [Ulf Möller]
8460
8461 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8462 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8463 [Steve Henson]
8464
8465 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8466 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8467 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8468 cipher list.
8469 [Steve Henson]
8470
8471 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8472 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8473 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8474 [Steve Henson]
8475
8476 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8477 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8478 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8479 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8480 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8481 should work without changes.
8482 [Richard Levitte]
8483
8484 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8485 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8486 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8487 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8488 must be defined. E.g.,
8489 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8490 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8491 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8492 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8493
8494 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8495 record layer.
8496 [Bodo Moeller]
8497
8498 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8499 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8500 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8501 [Steve Henson]
8502
8503 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8504 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8505 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8506 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8507 [Steve Henson]
8508
8509 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8510 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8511 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8512 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8513 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8514 is prompted for as usual.
8515 [Steve Henson]
8516
8517 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8518 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8519 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8520 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8521
8522 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8523 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8524 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8525 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8526 [Steve Henson]
8527
8528 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8529 [Andy Polyakov]
8530
8531 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8532 of seed file.
8533 [Steve Henson]
8534
8535 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8536 [Bodo Moeller]
8537
8538 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8539 [Steve Henson]
8540
8541 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8542 bits.
8543 [Ulf Möller]
8544
8545 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8546 [Ulf Möller]
8547
8548 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8549 [Andy Polyakov]
8550
8551 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8552 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8553 [Ulf Möller]
8554
8555 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8556 options to produce them.
8557 [Steve Henson]
8558
8559 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8560 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8561 [Ulf Möller]
8562
8563 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8564 for p == 0.
8565 [Ulf Möller]
8566
8567 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8568 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8569 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8570 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8571 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8572 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8573 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8574 [Steve Henson]
8575
8576 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8577 [Steve Henson]
8578
8579 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8580 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8581 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8582 [Bodo Moeller]
8583
8584 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8585 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8586
8587 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8588 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8589 [Ulf Möller]
8590
8591 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8592 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8593 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8594 has already seen).
8595 [Bodo Moeller]
8596
8597 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8598 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8599
8600 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8601 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8602 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8603 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8604 generation becomes much faster.
8605
8606 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8607 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8608 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8609 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8610 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8611 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8612 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8613 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8614 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8615 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8616 [Bodo Moeller]
8617
8618 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8619 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8620 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8621 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8622 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8623 trial division stage.
8624 [Bodo Moeller]
8625
8626 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8627 as ASN1_TIME.
8628 [Steve Henson]
8629
8630 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8631 [Steve Henson]
8632
8633 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8634 [Ulf Möller]
8635
8636 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8637 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8638 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8639 the comments.
8640 [Ulf Möller]
8641
8642 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8643 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8644 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8645 [Bodo Moeller]
8646
8647 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8648 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8649 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8650 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8651
8652 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8653 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8654 [Steve Henson]
8655
8656 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8657 [Ulf Möller]
8658
8659 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8660 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8661 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8662 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8663 [Ulf Möller]
8664
8665 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8666 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8667 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8668 [Ulf Möller]
8669
8670 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8671 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8672 (instead of parameters) in future.
8673 [Steve Henson]
8674
8675 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8676 when a new cipher list is set.
8677 [Steve Henson]
8678
8679 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8680 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8681 wrong.
8682
8683 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8684 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8685 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8686
8687 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8688 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8689 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8690 an error is flagged.
8691
8692 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8693 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8694 the readability was also increased :-)
8695 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8696
8697 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8698 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8699 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8700 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8701 as the root CA.
8702 [Steve Henson]
8703
8704 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8705 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8706 [Steve Henson]
8707
8708 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8709 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8710 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8711 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8712 instead.
8713
8714 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8715 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8716 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8717 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8718 because they handle more complex structures.)
8719 [Steve Henson]
8720
8721 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8722 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8723 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8724 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8725
8726 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8727 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8728 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8729 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8730 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8731 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8732 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8733 [Ulf Möller]
8734
8735 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8736 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8737 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8738 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8739 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8740 [Bodo Moeller]
8741
8742 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8743 [Bodo Moeller]
8744
8745 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8746 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8747 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8748 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8749 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8750 to use this.
8751
8752 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8753 code.
8754 [Steve Henson]
8755
8756 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8757 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8758 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8759 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8760 [Steve Henson]
8761
8762 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8763 [Ulf Möller]
8764
8765 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8766 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8767 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8768 international characters are used.
8769
8770 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8771 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8772 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8773 in ASN1 order.
8774 [Steve Henson]
8775
8776 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8777 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8778 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8779 request.
8780
8781 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8782 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8783 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8784 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8785 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8786 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8787
8788 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8789 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8790 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8791 be handled by the string table functions.
8792
8793 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8794 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8795 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8796 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8797 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8798 types at all.
8799 [Steve Henson]
8800
8801 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8802 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8803 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8804 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8805 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8806
8807 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8808 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8809 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8810 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8811 [Bodo Moeller]
8812
8813 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8814 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8815 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8816 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8817 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8818 SHA1.
8819 [Andy Polyakov]
8820
8821 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8822 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8823 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8824 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8825 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8826 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8827 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8828 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8829
8830 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8831 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8832 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8833 [Steve Henson]
8834
8835 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8836 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8837 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8838 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8839 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8840 support to pkcs8 application.
8841 [Steve Henson]
8842
8843 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8844 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8845 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8846 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8847 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8848 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8849 [Bodo Moeller]
8850
8851 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8852 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8853 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8854 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8855 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8856 consistency.
8857 [Bodo Moeller]
8858
8859 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8860 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8861 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8862 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8863 example.
8864 [Steve Henson]
8865
8866 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8867 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8868 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8869 and any application specific purposes.
8870
8871 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8872 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8873 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8874 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8875 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8876 if the certificate is self signed.
8877 [Steve Henson]
8878
8879 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8880 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8881 [Steve Henson]
8882
8883 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8884 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8885 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8886 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8887 [Steve Henson]
8888
8889 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8890 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8891 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8892 Update documentation.
8893 [Steve Henson]
8894
8895 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8896 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8897 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8898 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8899 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8900 [Steve Henson]
8901
8902 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8903 for details.
8904 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8905
8906 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8907 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8908 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8909 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8910 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8911 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8912 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8913 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8914 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8915 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8916
8917 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8918
8919 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8920 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8921 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8922 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8923 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8924
8925 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8926 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8927 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8928 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8929 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8930 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8931 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8932 request additional information:
8933 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8934 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8935
8936 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8937 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8938 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8939 options.
8940
8941 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8942 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8943
8944 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8945 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8946 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8947
8948 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8949 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8950
8951 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8952 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8953 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8954 algorithm.
8955 [Steve Henson]
8956
8957 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8958 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8959 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8960
8961 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8962 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8963 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8964 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8965 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8966 included in OpenSSL.
8967 [Steve Henson]
8968
8969 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8970 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8971 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8972 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8973 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8974 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8975 [Bodo Moeller]
8976
8977 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8978 PKCS12 structure.
8979 [Steve Henson]
8980
8981 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8982 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8983 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8984 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8985 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8986 structure.
8987 [Steve Henson]
8988
8989 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8990 need initialising.
8991 [Steve Henson]
8992
8993 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8994 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8995 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8996 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8997 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8998 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8999 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
9000 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
9001 be maintained manually.
9002
9003 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
9004 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
9005 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
9006 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
9007 work because people forget to call this function]
9008 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
9009 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
9010 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
9011 [Steve Henson]
9012
9013 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
9014 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
9015 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
9016 should be discouraged from doing it.
9017 [Ben Laurie]
9018
9019 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
9020 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
9021 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
9022 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
9023 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
9024 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
9025 [Steve Henson]
9026
9027 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
9028 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
9029 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
9030
9031 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
9032 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
9033 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
9034
9035 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
9036 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
9037 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
9038 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
9039 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
9040 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
9041
9042 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
9043 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
9044 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
9045
9046 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
9047 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
9048 and vice versa.
9049
9050 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
9051 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
9052 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
9053 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
9054 [Steve Henson]
9055
9056 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
9057 [Steve Henson]
9058
9059 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
9060 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
9061 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
9062 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
9063 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
9064 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
9065 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
9066 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
9067 keys so we should be OK.
9068
9069 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
9070 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
9071 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
9072 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
9073 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
9074 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
9075 stay in the name of compatibility.
9076
9077 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
9078 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
9079 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
9080
9081 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
9082 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
9083 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
9084 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
9085 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
9086 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
9087 supplied key).
9088 [Steve Henson]
9089
9090 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
9091 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
9092 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
9093 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
9094 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
9095 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
9096 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
9097 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
9098 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
9099 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
9100 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
9101 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
9102 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
9103 [Steve Henson]
9104
9105 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
9106 [Steve Henson]
9107
9108 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
9109 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
9110 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
9111 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
9112 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
9113 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
9114 single self signed certificate. This means that:
9115 openssl verify ss.pem
9116 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
9117 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
9118 is OK.
9119 [Steve Henson]
9120
9121 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
9122 (and add it to external session representation).
9123 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
9124 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
9125 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
9126 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
9127 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
9128 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
9129 security holes.
9130 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
9131
9132 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
9133 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
9134 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
9135 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
9136
9137 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
9138 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
9139 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
9140 [Steve Henson]
9141
9142 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
9143 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
9144 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
9145 code.
9146 [Steve Henson]
9147
9148 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
9149 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
9150 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
9151
9152 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
9153 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
9154 certificate auxiliary information.
9155 [Steve Henson]
9156
9157 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
9158 the 'enc' command.
9159 [Steve Henson]
9160
9161 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
9162 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
9163 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
9164 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
9165 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
9166 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
9167 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
9168 [Richard Levitte]
9169
9170 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
9171 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
9172 [Steve Henson]
9173
9174 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
9175 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
9176 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
9177 manpages and fix a few bugs.
9178 [Steve Henson]
9179
9180 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
9181 [Steve Henson]
9182
9183 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
9184 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
9185 [Steve Henson]
9186
9187 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
9188 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
9189 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
9190 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
9191 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
9192 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
9193 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
9194 using the new 'x509' options.
9195
9196 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
9197 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
9198 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
9199 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
9200 for all purposes.
9201 [Steve Henson]
9202
9203 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
9204 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
9205 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
9206 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
9207 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
9208 [Mark Cox]
9209
9210 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
9211 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
9212 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
9213 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
9214 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
9215 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
9216 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
9217 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
9218 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
9219 the key length and effective key length are equal.
9220 [Steve Henson]
9221
9222 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
9223 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
9224 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
9225 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
9226 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
9227 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
9228 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
9229 [Steve Henson]
9230
9231 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
9232 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
9233 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
9234 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
9235 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
9236 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
9237 openssl.cnf for more info.
9238 [Steve Henson]
9239
9240 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
9241 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
9242 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
9243 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
9244 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
9245 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
9246 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
9247 md should be large enough anyway.
9248 [Bodo Moeller]
9249
9250 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
9251 for handling the random seed file.
9252
9253 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
9254 ca,
9255 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
9256 s_client,
9257 s_server,
9258 x509 (when signing).
9259 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
9260 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
9261 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
9262
9263 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
9264 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
9265 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
9266 that support '-rand'.
9267 [Bodo Moeller]
9268
9269 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
9270 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
9271 [Bodo Moeller]
9272
9273 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
9274 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
9275 [Bill Perry]
9276
9277 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
9278 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
9279 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
9280 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
9281 is suitable.
9282 [Steve Henson]
9283
9284 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
9285 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
9286 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
9287 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
9288 [Steve Henson]
9289
9290 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
9291 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
9292 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
9293 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
9294 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
9295 print out all the purposes.
9296 [Steve Henson]
9297
9298 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
9299 functions.
9300 [Steve Henson]
9301
9302 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
9303 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
9304 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
9305 single function call.
9306 [Steve Henson]
9307
9308 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
9309 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
9310 [Andy Polyakov]
9311
9312 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
9313 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
9314 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
9315 [Steve Henson]
9316
9317 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
9318 when producing the local key id.
9319 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9320
9321 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
9322 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
9323 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
9324 "server.pem".
9325 [Steve Henson]
9326
9327 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
9328 a public key to be input or output. For example:
9329 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
9330 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
9331 [Steve Henson]
9332
9333 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
9334 in the message. This was handled by allowing
9335 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
9336 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
9337
9338 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
9339 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
9340 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
9341 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9342
9343 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
9344 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
9345 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
9346 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9347 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9348 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9349 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9350 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9351 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9352 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9353 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9354 trivial: move one line.
9355 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9356
9357 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9358 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9359 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9360 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9361 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9362 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9363 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9364 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9365 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9366 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9367 with an event loop for example.
9368 [Steve Henson]
9369
9370 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9371 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9372 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9373 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9374 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9375 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9376 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9377 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9378 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9379 [Steve Henson]
9380
9381 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9382 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9383 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9384 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9385 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9386 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9387 [Steve Henson]
9388
9389 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9390 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9391 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9392 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9393
9394 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9395 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9396 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9397 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9398 key generation.
9399 [Steve Henson]
9400
9401 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9402 (still largely untested)
9403 [Bodo Moeller]
9404
9405 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9406 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9407 [Steve Henson]
9408
9409 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9410 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9411 [Steve Henson]
9412
9413 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9414 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9415 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9416 [Bodo Moeller]
9417
9418 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9419 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9420 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9421 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9422 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9423 [Steve Henson]
9424
9425 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9426 [Andy Polyakov]
9427
9428 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9429 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9430 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9431 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9432 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9433 in ca.
9434 [Steve Henson]
9435
9436 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9437 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9438 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9439 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9440 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9441 [Steve Henson]
9442
9443 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9444 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9445 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9446 are otherwise ignored at present.
9447 [Steve Henson]
9448
9449 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9450 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9451 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9452 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9453 copied until the next read.
9454 [Steve Henson]
9455
9456 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9457 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9458 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9459 [Steve Henson]
9460
9461 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9462 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9463 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9464 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9465 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9466 associated functions.
9467 [Steve Henson]
9468
9469 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9470 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9471 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9472 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9473 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9474 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9475 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9476 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9477 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9478 memory BIOs.
9479 [Steve Henson]
9480
9481 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9482 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9483 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9484 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9485 [Bodo Moeller]
9486
9487 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9488 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9489 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9490 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9491 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9492 functionality.
9493 [Steve Henson]
9494
9495 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9496 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9497 under Win32.
9498 [Steve Henson]
9499
9500 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9501 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9502 extensions to be obtained and added.
9503 [Steve Henson]
9504
9505 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9506 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9507 [Bodo Moeller]
9508
9509 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9510
9511 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9512 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9513
9514 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9515 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9516
9517 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9518 program.
9519 [Steve Henson]
9520
9521 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9522 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9523 DH parameters contain its length).
9524
9525 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9526 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9527 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9528 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9529 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9530 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9531 utter importance to use
9532 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9533 or
9534 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9535 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9536 attacks may become possible!
9537 [Bodo Moeller]
9538
9539 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9540 [Bodo Moeller]
9541
9542 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9543 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9544 [Steve Henson]
9545
9546 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9547 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9548 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9549 or long name.
9550 [Steve Henson]
9551
9552 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9553 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9554 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9555 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9556 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9557 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9558 private key operations.
9559 [Steve Henson]
9560
9561 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9562 [Andy Polyakov]
9563
9564 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9565 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9566 to
9567 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9568 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9569 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9570 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9571 the password callback is called.
9572 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9573
9574 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9575
9576 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9577 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9578 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9579 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9580 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9581 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9582 this will work.
9583
9584 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9585 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9586 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9587 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9588 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9589 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9590 [Bodo Moeller]
9591
9592 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9593 [Andy Polyakov]
9594
9595 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9596 delete an unused file.
9597 [Ulf Möller]
9598
9599 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9600 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9601 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9602 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9603 [Steve Henson]
9604
9605 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9606 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9607 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9608 of an error.
9609 [Bodo Moeller]
9610
9611 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9612 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9613 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9614
9615 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9616 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9617 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9618 comparison" warnings.
9619 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9620 [Steve Henson]
9621
9622 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9623 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9624 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9625 [Steve Henson]
9626
9627 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9628 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9629
9630 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9631 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9632
9633 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9634 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9635 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9636
9637 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9638 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9639 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9640 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9641 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9642 this bug.
9643 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9644
9645 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9646 The interface is as follows:
9647 Applications can use
9648 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9649 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9650 "off" is now the default.
9651 The library internally uses
9652 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9653 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9654 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9655
9656 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9657 even the default) are now avoided.
9658
9659 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9660 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9661 than just having a counter.
9662
9663 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9664
9665 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9666 extensions.
9667 [Bodo Moeller]
9668
9669 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9670 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9671 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9672 Initial "mode" flags are:
9673
9674 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9675 a single record has been written.
9676 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9677 retries use the same buffer location.
9678 (But all of the contents must be
9679 copied!)
9680 [Bodo Moeller]
9681
9682 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9683 worked.
9684
9685 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9686 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9687
9688 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9689 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9690 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9691 [Steve Henson]
9692
9693 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9694 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9695 test programs.
9696 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9697
9698 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9699 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9700 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9701 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9702 point to the end.
9703 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9704 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9705
9706 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9707 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9708 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9709 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9710 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9711 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9712 [Steve Henson]
9713
9714 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9715 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9716 necessary function names.
9717 [Steve Henson]
9718
9719 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9720 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9721 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9722 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9723 [Bodo Moeller]
9724
9725 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9726 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9727 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9728 [Steve Henson]
9729
9730 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9731 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9732 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9733 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9734 such programs?)
9735 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9736 need locks.
9737 [Bodo Moeller]
9738
9739 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9740 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9741 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9742 [Bodo Moeller]
9743
9744 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9745 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9746 appropriate.
9747 [Bodo Moeller]
9748
9749 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9750 for the encoded length.
9751 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9752
9753 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9754 [Steve Henson]
9755
9756 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9757 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9758 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9759 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9760 [Steve Henson]
9761
9762 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9763 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9764 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9765
9766 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9767 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9768 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9769 unusual formatting.
9770 [Steve Henson]
9771
9772 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9773 to use the new extension code.
9774 [Steve Henson]
9775
9776 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9777 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9778 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9779 constant.
9780 [Steve Henson]
9781
9782 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9783 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9784 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9785 [Bodo Moeller]
9786
9787 #if 0
9788 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9789 [Ben Laurie]
9790 #else
9791 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9792 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9793 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9794 #endif
9795
9796 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9797 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9798 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9799 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9800 [Ben Laurie]
9801
9802 *) DES library cleanups.
9803 [Ulf Möller]
9804
9805 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9806 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9807 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9808 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9809 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9810 of v2.0.
9811 [Steve Henson]
9812
9813 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9814 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9815 [Bodo Moeller]
9816
9817 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9818 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9819 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9820 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9821 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9822 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9823 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9824 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9825 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9826 [Steve Henson]
9827
9828 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9829 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9830 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9831 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9832 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9833 value doesn't matter.
9834 [Steve Henson]
9835
9836 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9837 support mutable.
9838 [Ben Laurie]
9839
9840 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9841 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9842 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9843 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9844
9845 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9846 [Ulf Möller]
9847
9848 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9849 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9850 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9851
9852 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9853 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9854
9855 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9856 [Ben Laurie]
9857
9858 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9859 [Ben Laurie]
9860
9861 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9862 [Ben Laurie]
9863
9864 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9865 [Bodo Moeller]
9866
9867
9868 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9869
9870 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9871
9872 *) Updated some demos.
9873 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9874
9875 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9876 [Wu Zhigang]
9877
9878 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9879 [Steve Henson]
9880
9881 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9882 [Steve Henson]
9883
9884 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9885 instead of using a fixed path.
9886 [Bodo Moeller]
9887
9888 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9889 [Andy Polyakov]
9890
9891 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9892 [Richard Levitte]
9893
9894
9895 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9896
9897 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9898 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9899 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9900
9901 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9902 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9903 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9904 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9905 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9906 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9907 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9908 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9909 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9910 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9911 [Steve Henson]
9912
9913 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9914 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9915 [Steve Henson]
9916
9917 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9918 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9919 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9920 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9921 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9922
9923 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9924 [Bodo Moeller]
9925
9926 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9927 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9928 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9929 [Steve Henson]
9930
9931 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9932 [Ben Laurie]
9933
9934 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9935 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9936 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9937 key elements as negative integers.
9938 [Steve Henson]
9939
9940 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9941 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9942
9943 *) VMS support.
9944 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9945
9946 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9947 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9948 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9949 [Steve Henson]
9950
9951 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9952 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9953 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9954 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9955 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9956 [Bodo Moeller]
9957
9958 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9959 [Ulf Möller]
9960
9961 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9962 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9963 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9964 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9965
9966 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9967 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9968 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9969
9970 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9971 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9972 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9973 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9974 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9975 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9976 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9977 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9978 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9979
9980 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9981 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9982 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9983 does not influence s as it used to.
9984
9985 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9986 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9987 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9988 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9989 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9990 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9991 [Bodo Moeller]
9992
9993 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9994 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9995 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9996 key type.
9997 [Steve Henson]
9998
9999 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
10000 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
10001 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
10002 and 'x509').
10003 [Steve Henson]
10004
10005 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
10006 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
10007 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
10008 extension option.
10009 [Steve Henson]
10010
10011 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
10012 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
10013 [Ben Laurie]
10014
10015 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
10016 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10017
10018 *) Support Mingw32.
10019 [Ulf Möller]
10020
10021 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
10022 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10023
10024 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
10025 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10026
10027 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
10028 [Ulf Möller]
10029
10030 *) Update HPUX configuration.
10031 [Anonymous]
10032
10033 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
10034 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10035
10036 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
10037 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
10038 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
10039 DER-encoded.)
10040 [Bodo Moeller]
10041
10042 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
10043 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
10044 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
10045 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
10046 now it really counts the depth.
10047 [Bodo Moeller]
10048
10049 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
10050 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
10051 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
10052 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
10053 didn't match the private key).
10054
10055 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
10056 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
10057 connection using the SSL_CTX).
10058 [Bodo Moeller]
10059
10060 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
10061 [Ulf Möller]
10062
10063 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
10064 David Harris.
10065 [Bodo Moeller]
10066
10067 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
10068 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
10069 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
10070 [Bodo Moeller]
10071
10072 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
10073 [Bodo Moeller]
10074
10075 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
10076 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
10077 such as /usr/local/bin.
10078 [Bodo Moeller]
10079
10080 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
10081 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10082
10083 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
10084 [Ulf Möller]
10085
10086 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
10087 extension adding in x509 utility.
10088 [Steve Henson]
10089
10090 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
10091 [Ulf Möller]
10092
10093 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
10094 prototypes.
10095 [Steve Henson]
10096
10097 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
10098 [Ulf Möller]
10099
10100 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
10101 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
10102 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
10103 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
10104 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
10105 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
10106 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
10107 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
10108 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
10109 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
10110 [Steve Henson]
10111
10112 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
10113 [Bodo Moeller]
10114
10115 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
10116 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
10117 [Bodo Moeller]
10118
10119 *) Fix some race conditions.
10120 [Bodo Moeller]
10121
10122 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
10123 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
10124 [Steve Henson]
10125
10126 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
10127 [Ulf Möller]
10128
10129 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
10130 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
10131 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
10132 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
10133
10134 *) Fix lots of warnings.
10135 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10136
10137 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
10138 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
10139 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10140
10141 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
10142 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10143
10144 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
10145 [Ulf Möller]
10146
10147 *) Fix typos in error codes.
10148 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
10149
10150 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
10151 [Ulf Möller]
10152
10153 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
10154 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10155
10156 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
10157 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
10158 [Steve Henson]
10159
10160 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
10161 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
10162 [Ben Laurie]
10163
10164 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
10165 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
10166 [Steve Henson]
10167
10168 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
10169 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
10170 [Steve Henson]
10171
10172 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
10173 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
10174 [Steve Henson]
10175
10176 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
10177 support typesafe stack.
10178 [Steve Henson]
10179
10180 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
10181 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
10182
10183 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
10184 old X509V3 handling code.
10185 [Steve Henson]
10186
10187 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
10188 [Ulf Möller]
10189
10190 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
10191 [Bodo Moeller]
10192
10193 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
10194 [Ben Laurie]
10195
10196 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
10197 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
10198
10199 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
10200 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
10201 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
10202 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
10203 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
10204 [Ben Laurie]
10205
10206 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
10207 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
10208 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
10209 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
10210 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
10211
10212 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
10213 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
10214 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
10215 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10216
10217 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
10218 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
10219 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
10220 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10221
10222 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
10223 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
10224 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
10225 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
10226 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
10227 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
10228 [Bodo Moeller]
10229
10230 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
10231 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
10232 [Bodo Moeller]
10233
10234 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
10235 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
10236 [Ulf Möller]
10237
10238 *) Tweaks to Configure
10239 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10240
10241 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
10242 yet...
10243 [Steve Henson]
10244
10245 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
10246 [Ulf Möller]
10247
10248 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
10249 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
10250 [Ulf Möller]
10251
10252 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
10253 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
10254 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
10255 [Bodo Moeller]
10256
10257 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
10258 [Bodo Moeller]
10259
10260 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
10261 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
10262 [Steve Henson]
10263
10264 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
10265 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
10266 to library startup routines.
10267 [Steve Henson]
10268
10269 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
10270 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
10271 codes along the way.
10272 [Steve Henson]
10273
10274 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
10275 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
10276 objects to objects.h
10277 [Steve Henson]
10278
10279 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
10280 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
10281 [Steve Henson]
10282
10283 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
10284 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
10285
10286 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
10287 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
10288 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
10289
10290 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
10291 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10292 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10293
10294 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
10295 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
10296 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
10297
10298
10299 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
10300
10301 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
10302 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
10303 [Ben Laurie]
10304
10305 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
10306 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
10307 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
10308 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
10309 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
10310
10311 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
10312 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
10313 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
10314 document.
10315 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10316
10317 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
10318 Malloc, Free.
10319 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
10320
10321 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
10322 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10323
10324 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
10325 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
10326 if someone would make that last step automatic.
10327 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
10328
10329 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
10330 [Ben Laurie]
10331
10332 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
10333 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
10334 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
10335 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
10336 [Steve Henson]
10337
10338 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
10339 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
10340 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
10341 [Steve Henson]
10342
10343 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
10344 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
10345 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
10346 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10347 installed as `perl').
10348 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10349
10350 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10351 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10352
10353 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10354 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
10355 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10356 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10357 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10358 [Steve Henson]
10359
10360 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10361 [Ben Laurie]
10362
10363 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10364 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10365 is horrible: I feel ill....
10366 [Steve Henson]
10367
10368 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10369 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10370 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10371 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10372 [Steve Henson]
10373
10374 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10375 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10376
10377 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10378 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10379 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10380 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10381
10382 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10383 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10384 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10385 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10386 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10387 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10388 openssl_bio.xs.
10389 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10390
10391 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10392 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10393
10394 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10395 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10396
10397 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10398 [Ben Laurie]
10399
10400 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10401 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10402 in CRLs.
10403 [Steve Henson]
10404
10405 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10406 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10407 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10408 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10409 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10410 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10411 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10412 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10413 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10414 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10415 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10416
10417 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10418 [Ben Laurie]
10419
10420 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10421 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10422 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10423 for linking it into DSOs.
10424 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10425
10426 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10427 Fixed.
10428 [Ben Laurie]
10429
10430 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10431 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10432 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10433 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10434 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10435 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10436
10437 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10438 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10439 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10440 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10441 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10442 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10443 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10444
10445 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10446 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10447 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10448 encryption.
10449 [Ben Laurie]
10450
10451 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10452 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10453 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10454 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10455 [Steve Henson]
10456
10457 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10458 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10459 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10460 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10461 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10462 field as blank.
10463 [Steve Henson]
10464
10465 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10466 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10467 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10468 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10469 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10470
10471 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10472 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10473 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10474
10475 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10476 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10477
10478 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10479 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10480 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10481 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10482 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10483 [Steve Henson]
10484
10485 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10486 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10487 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10488 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10489 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10490 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10491 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10492 [Ben Laurie]
10493
10494 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10495 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10496 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10497 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10498 [Ben Laurie]
10499
10500 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10501 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10502
10503 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10504 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10505 [Steve Henson]
10506
10507 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10508 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10509 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10510 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10511 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10512 (e.g. s_server).
10513 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10514 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10515 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10516 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10517 no way to reconfigure them.
10518 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10519 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10520 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10521 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10522 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10523 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10524
10525 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10526 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10527 recognized by the users.
10528 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10529
10530 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10531 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10532 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10533 already masked variable.
10534 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10535
10536 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10537 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10538
10539 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10540 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10541 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10542 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10543
10544 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10545 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10546 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10547
10548 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10549 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10550 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10551 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10552 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10553 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10554 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10555 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10556 now, too.
10557 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10558
10559 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10560 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10561 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10562
10563 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10564 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10565 config file.
10566 [Steve Henson]
10567
10568 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10569 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10570
10571 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10572 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10573 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10574 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10575 [Ben Laurie]
10576
10577 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10578 [Steve Henson]
10579
10580 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10581 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10582
10583 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10584 [Ben Laurie]
10585
10586 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10587 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10588 [Steve Henson]
10589
10590 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10591 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10592 [Steve Henson]
10593
10594 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10595 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10596 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10597 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10598 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10599 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10600 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10601 Ben Laurie]
10602
10603 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10604 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10605
10606 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10607 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10608 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10609 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10610 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10611
10612 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10613 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10614 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10615 [Steve Henson]
10616
10617 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10618 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10619 an example.
10620 [Steve Henson]
10621
10622 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10623 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10624 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10625
10626 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10627 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10628 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10629 build instructions.
10630 [Steve Henson]
10631
10632 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10633 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10634 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10635 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10636 [Steve Henson]
10637
10638 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10639 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10640 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10641 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10642 [Ben Laurie]
10643
10644 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10645 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10646 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10647 so it wasn't spotted.
10648 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10649
10650 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10651 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10652 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10653 vectors if you have them.
10654 [Ben Laurie]
10655
10656 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10657 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10658 [Ben Laurie]
10659
10660 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10661 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10662 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10663 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10664 If you do a:
10665 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10666 it will update them.
10667 [Steve Henson]
10668
10669 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10670 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10671 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10672 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10673 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10674 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10675 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10676 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10677
10678 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10679 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10680 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10681 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10682 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10683 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10684 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10685 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10686 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10687 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10688
10689 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10690 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10691 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10692 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10693 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10694 [Steve Henson]
10695
10696 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10697 INTEGER code.
10698 [Steve Henson]
10699
10700 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10701 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10702
10703 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10704 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10705
10706 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10707 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10708 [Ben Laurie]
10709
10710 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10711 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10712
10713 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10714 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10715
10716 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10717 [Steve Henson]
10718
10719 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10720 few typos.
10721 [Steve Henson]
10722
10723 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10724 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10725 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10726 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10727
10728 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10729 [Steve Henson]
10730
10731 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10732 [Steve Henson]
10733
10734 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10735 [Steve Henson]
10736
10737 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10738 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10739 [Steve Henson]
10740
10741 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10742 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10743 CA extensions.
10744 [Steve Henson]
10745
10746 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10747 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10748 [Steve Henson]
10749
10750 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10751 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10752 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10753 [Steve Henson]
10754
10755 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10756 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10757 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10758 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10759 properly to be processed.
10760 [Steve Henson]
10761
10762 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10763 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10764 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10765 [Ben Laurie]
10766
10767 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10768 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10769
10770 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10771 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10772 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10773 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10774 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10775 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10776 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10777 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10778 or delete all the .err files.
10779 [Steve Henson]
10780
10781 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10782 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10783 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10784 to regenerate it if needed.
10785 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10786 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10787
10788 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10789 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10790
10791 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10792 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10793 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10794 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10795 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10796 [Steve Henson]
10797
10798 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10799 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10800
10801 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10802 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10803
10804 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10805 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10806 error, but didn't set one).
10807 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10808
10809 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10810 [Ben Laurie]
10811
10812 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10813 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10814 [Steve Henson]
10815
10816 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10817 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10818
10819 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10820 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10821 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10822 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10823 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10824 OID is not part of the table.
10825 [Steve Henson]
10826
10827 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10828 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10829 [Ben Laurie]
10830
10831 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10832 [Ben Laurie]
10833
10834 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10835 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10836 was "1234").
10837 [Steve Henson]
10838
10839 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10840 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10841
10842 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10843 NULL pointers.
10844 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10845
10846 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10847 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10848
10849 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10850 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10851
10852 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10853 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10854
10855 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10856 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10857 [Ben Laurie]
10858
10859 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10860 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10861 [Steve Henson]
10862
10863 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10864 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10865
10866 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10867 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10868
10869 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10870 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10871
10872 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10873 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10874
10875 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10876 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10877 unused in the certificate verification process.
10878 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10879
10880 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10881 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10882 [Steve Henson]
10883
10884 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10885 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10886 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10887
10888 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10889 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10890 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10891 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10892 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10893
10894 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10895 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10896 [Steve Henson]
10897
10898 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10899 [Steve Henson]
10900
10901 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10902 [Paul Sutton]
10903
10904 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10905 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10906
10907 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10908 [Ben Laurie]
10909
10910 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10911 [Ben Laurie]
10912
10913 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10914 [Ben Laurie]
10915
10916 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10917 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10918 other error libraries.
10919 [Steve Henson]
10920
10921 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10922 [Steve Henson]
10923
10924 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10925 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10926 be read in.
10927 [Steve Henson]
10928
10929 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10930 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10931 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10932 the new set of documenation files.
10933 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10934
10935 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10936 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10937 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10938 number of arguments.
10939 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10940
10941 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10942 [Ben Laurie]
10943
10944 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10945 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10946 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10947
10948 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10949 [Ben Laurie]
10950
10951 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10952 nextstep
10953 ncr-scde
10954 unixware-2.0
10955 unixware-2.0-pentium
10956 sco5-cc.
10957 [Ben Laurie]
10958
10959 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10960 before they are needed.
10961 [Ben Laurie]
10962
10963 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10964 [Ben Laurie]
10965
10966
10967 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10968
10969 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10970 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10971 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10972
10973 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10974 [Paul Sutton]
10975
10976 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10977 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10978 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10979
10980 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10981 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10982 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10983
10984 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10985 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10986 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10987
10988 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10989 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10990
10991 *) Updated the README file.
10992 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10993
10994 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10995 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10996 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10997
10998 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10999 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
11000 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11001
11002 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
11003 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
11004 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
11005 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
11006 o removed obsolete TODO file
11007 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
11008 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11009
11010 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
11011 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
11012 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
11013 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
11014 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
11015 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
11016 [Ralf S. Engelschall]

11068 [Eric A. Young]
11069
11070 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
11071 [Eric A. Young]
11072
11073 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
11074 [Eric A. Young]
11075
11076 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
11077 [Eric A. Young]
11078
11079 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
11080 [Eric A. Young]
11081
11082 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.

11084
11085 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
11086 [Eric A. Young]
11087
11088 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.

11099
11100 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
11101 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
11102 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
11103 [Eric A. Young]
11104
11105 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
11106 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
11107 [Eric A. Young]
