8 release branch.
9
10 Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
11
12 *) Removed NextStep support and the macro OPENSSL_UNISTD
13 [Rich Salz]
14
15 *) Removed DES_check_key. Also removed OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL,
16 OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF, OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL.
17 [Rich Salz]
18
19 *) RC5_32_set_key has been changed to return an int type, with 0 indicating
20 an error and 1 indicating success. In previous versions of OpenSSL this
21 was a void type. If a key was set longer than the maximum possible this
22 would crash.
23 [Matt Caswell]
24
25 *) Support SM2 signing and verification schemes with X509 certificate.
26 [Paul Yang]
27
28 *) Use SHA256 as the default digest for TS query in the ts app.
29 [Tomas Mraz]
30
31 *) Change PBKDF2 to conform to SP800-132 instead of the older PKCS5 RFC2898.
32 This checks that the salt length is at least 128 bits, the derived key
33 length is at least 112 bits, and that the iteration count is at least 1000.
34 For backwards compatibility these checks are disabled by default in the
35 default provider, but are enabled by default in the fips provider.
36 To enable or disable these checks use the control
37 EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_PBKDF2_PKCS5_MODE.
38 [Shane Lontis]
39
40 *) Default cipher lists/suites are now avaialble via a function, the
41 #defines are deprecated.
42 [Todd Short]
43
44 *) Add target VC-WIN32-UWP, VC-WIN64A-UWP, VC-WIN32-ARM-UWP and
45 VC-WIN64-ARM-UWP in Windows OneCore target for making building libraries
46 for Windows Store apps easier. Also, the "no-uplink" option has been added.
47 [Kenji Mouri]
48
49 *) Join the directories crypto/x509 and crypto/x509v3
50 [Richard Levitte]
51
52 *) Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
53 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
54 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
55 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
56 [Kurt Roeckx]
57
58 *) Added command 'openssl kdf' that uses the EVP_KDF API.
59 [Shane Lontis]
60
61 *) Added command 'openssl mac' that uses the EVP_MAC API.
62 [Shane Lontis]
63
64 *) Added OPENSSL_info() to get diverse built-in OpenSSL data, such
65 as default directories. Also added the command 'openssl info'
66 for scripting purposes.
67 [Richard Levitte]
68
69 *) The functions AES_ige_encrypt() and AES_bi_ige_encrypt() have been
70 deprecated. These undocumented functions were never integrated into the EVP
71 layer and implement the AES Infinite Garble Extension (IGE) mode and AES
72 Bi-directional IGE mode. These modes were never formally standardised and
73 usage of these functions is believed to be very small. In particular
74 AES_bi_ige_encrypt() has a known bug. It accepts 2 AES keys, but only one
75 is ever used. The security implications are believed to be minimal, but
76 this issue was never fixed for backwards compatibility reasons. New code
77 should not use these modes.
78 [Matt Caswell]
79
80 *) Add prediction resistance to the DRBG reseeding process.
81 [Paul Dale]
82
83 *) Limit the number of blocks in a data unit for AES-XTS to 2^20 as
84 mandated by IEEE Std 1619-2018.
85 [Paul Dale]
86
87 *) Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
88 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the '*sum'
89 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
90 [Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale]
91
92 *) Removed the heartbeat message in DTLS feature, as it has very
93 little usage and doesn't seem to fulfill a valuable purpose.
94 The configuration option is now deprecated.
95 [Richard Levitte]
96
97 *) Changed the output of 'openssl {digestname} < file' to display the
98 digest name in its output.
99 [Richard Levitte]
100
101 *) Added a new generic trace API which provides support for enabling
102 instrumentation through trace output. This feature is mainly intended
103 as an aid for developers and is disabled by default. To utilize it,
104 OpenSSL needs to be configured with the `enable-trace` option.
105
106 If the tracing API is enabled, the application can activate trace output
107 by registering BIOs as trace channels for a number of tracing and debugging
108 categories.
109
110 The 'openssl' application has been expanded to enable any of the types
111 available via environment variables defined by the user, and serves as
112 one possible example on how to use this functionality.
113 [Richard Levitte & Matthias St. Pierre]
114
115 *) Added build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
116 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
117 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
118
119 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
120 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
121 [Richard Levitte]
122
123 *) Add Single Step KDF (EVP_KDF_SS) to EVP_KDF.
124 [Shane Lontis]
125
126 *) Add KMAC to EVP_MAC.
127 [Shane Lontis]
128
129 *) Added property based algorithm implementation selection framework to
130 the core.
131 [Paul Dale]
132
133 *) Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
134 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
135 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
136 to affine coordinates.
137 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
138
139 *) Added EVP_KDF, an EVP layer KDF API, to simplify adding KDF and PRF
140 implementations. This includes an EVP_PKEY to EVP_KDF bridge for
141 those algorithms that were already supported through the EVP_PKEY API
142 (scrypt, TLS1 PRF and HKDF). The low-level KDF functions for PBKDF2
143 and scrypt are now wrappers that call EVP_KDF.
144 [David Makepeace]
145
146 *) Build devcrypto engine as a dynamic engine.
147 [Eneas U de Queiroz]
148
149 *) Add keyed BLAKE2 to EVP_MAC.
150 [Antoine Salon]
151
152 *) Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
153 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
154 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
155 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
156 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
157 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
158
159 *) Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
160 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
161 [Bernd Edlinger]
162
163 *) Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
164 [Richard Levitte]
165
166 *) Change the license to the Apache License v2.0.
167 [Richard Levitte]
168
169 *) Change the possible version information given with OPENSSL_API_COMPAT.
170 It may be a pre-3.0.0 style numerical version number as it was defined
171 in 1.1.0, and it may also simply take the major version number.
172
173 Because of the version numbering of pre-3.0.0 releases, the values 0,
174 1 and 2 are equivalent to 0x00908000L (0.9.8), 0x10000000L (1.0.0) and
175 0x10100000L (1.1.0), respectively.
176 [Richard Levitte]
177
178 *) Switch to a new version scheme using three numbers MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
179
180 o Major releases (indicated by incrementing the MAJOR release number)
181 may introduce incompatible API/ABI changes.
182 o Minor releases (indicated by incrementing the MINOR release number)
183 may introduce new features but retain API/ABI compatibility.
184 o Patch releases (indicated by incrementing the PATCH number)
185 are intended for bug fixes and other improvements of existing
186 features only (like improving performance or adding documentation)
187 and retain API/ABI compatibility.
188 [Richard Levitte]
189
190 *) Add support for RFC5297 SIV mode (siv128), including AES-SIV.
191 [Todd Short]
192
193 *) Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
194 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
195 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
196 [Richard Levitte]
197
198 *) Recreate the OS390-Unix config target. It no longer relies on a
199 special script like it did for OpenSSL pre-1.1.0.
200 [Richard Levitte]
201
202 *) Instead of having the source directories listed in Configure, add
203 a 'build.info' keyword SUBDIRS to indicate what sub-directories to
204 look into.
205 [Richard Levitte]
206
207 *) Add GMAC to EVP_MAC.
208 [Paul Dale]
209
210 *) Ported the HMAC, CMAC and SipHash EVP_PKEY_METHODs to EVP_MAC.
211 [Richard Levitte]
212
213 *) Added EVP_MAC, an EVP layer MAC API, to simplify adding MAC
214 implementations. This includes a generic EVP_PKEY to EVP_MAC bridge,
215 to facilitate the continued use of MACs through raw private keys in
216 functionality such as EVP_DigestSign* and EVP_DigestVerify*.
217 [Richard Levitte]
218
219 *) Deprecate ECDH_KDF_X9_62() and mark its replacement as internal. Users
220 should use the EVP interface instead (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_type).
221 [Antoine Salon]
222
223 *) Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
224 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
225 are retained for backwards compatibility.
226 [Antoine Salon]
227
228 *) AES-XTS mode now enforces that its two keys are different to mitigate
229 the attacked described in "Efficient Instantiations of Tweakable
230 Blockciphers and Refinements to Modes OCB and PMAC" by Phillip Rogaway.
231 Details of this attack can be obtained from:
232 http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/%7Erogaway/papers/offsets.pdf
233 [Paul Dale]
234
235 *) Rename the object files, i.e. give them other names than in previous
236 versions. Their names now include the name of the final product, as
237 well as its type mnemonic (bin, lib, shlib).
238 [Richard Levitte]
239
240 *) Added new option for 'openssl list', '-objects', which will display the
241 list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names.
242 [Richard Levitte]
243
244 *) Added support for Linux Kernel TLS data-path. The Linux Kernel data-path
245 improves application performance by removing data copies and providing
246 applications with zero-copy system calls such as sendfile and splice.
247 [Boris Pismenny]
248
249 Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [xx XXX xxxx]
250
251 *) Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
252 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
253 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
254 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
255 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
256 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
257 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
258 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
259 applications.
260 [Matt Caswell]
261
262 Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
263
264 *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
265
266 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
267 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
268 algorithm to recover the private key.
269
270 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
271 (CVE-2018-0734)
272 [Paul Dale]
273
274 *) Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
275
276 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
277 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
278 algorithm to recover the private key.
279
280 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
281 (CVE-2018-0735)
282 [Paul Dale]
283
284 *) Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
285 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
286 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
287
288 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
289 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
290 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
291 provided by the application.
292
293 Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
294
295 *) Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
296 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
297 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
298 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
299 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
300 of the ClientHello
301 [Benjamin Kaduk]
302
303 *) Add SM2 base algorithm support.
304 [Jack Lloyd]
305
306 *) s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
307 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
308 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
309 [Patrick Steuer]
310
311 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
312 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
313 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
314 [Richard Levitte]
315
316 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
317 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
318 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
319 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
320 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
321 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
322 to work in projective coordinates.
323 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
324
325 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
326 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
327 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
328 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
329 to 2^-128.
330 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
331
332 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
333 [Kurt Roeckx]
334
335 *) The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
336 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
337 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
338 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
339 [Richard Levitte]
340
341 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
342 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
343 [Andy Polyakov]
344
345 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
346 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
347 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
348 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
349 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
350
351 *) Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
352 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
353 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
354 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
355 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
356 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
357
358 *) Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
359 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
360 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
361 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
362 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
363 [Paul Dale]
364
365 *) Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
366 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
367 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
368 authors.
369 [Matt Caswell]
370
371 *) AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
372 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
373 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
374 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
375 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
376 multi-version installation is managed.
377 [Andy Polyakov]
378
379 *) Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
380 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
381 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
382 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
383 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
384 [Billy Bob Brumley]
385
386 *) Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
387 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
388 chosen point SCA attacks.
389 [Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley]
390
391 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
392 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
393 [Matt Caswell]
394
395 *) Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
396 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
397 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
398 [Matt Caswell]
399
400 *) SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
401 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
402 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
403 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
404 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
405 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
406 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
407 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
408 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
409 [Kurt Roeckx]
410
411 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
412 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
413 [Richard Levitte]
414
415 *) Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
416 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
417 [Billy Bob Brumley]
418
419 *) Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
420 binary and prime elliptic curves.
421 [Billy Bob Brumley]
422
423 *) Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
424 constant time fixed point multiplication.
425 [Billy Bob Brumley]
426
427 *) Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
428 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
429 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
430 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
431 ECDH derive operations).
432 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
433 Sohaib ul Hassan]
434
435 *) Updated CONTRIBUTING
436 [Rich Salz]
437
438 *) Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
439 randomness from the system.
440 [Matthias St. Pierre]
441
442 *) Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
443 [Richard Levitte]
444
445 *) Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
446 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
447 [Matt Caswell]
448
449 *) Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
450 [Matt Caswell]
451
452 *) Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
453 [Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz]
454
455 *) Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
456 [Richard Levitte]
457
458 *) Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
459 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
460 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
461 [Matt Caswell]
462
463 *) Memory allocation failures consistenly add an error to the error
464 stack.
465 [Rich Salz]
466
467 *) Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
468 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
469 [Bernd Edlinger]
470
471 *) Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
472 [Matt Caswell]
473
474 *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
475 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
476 [Matthias St. Pierre]
477
478 *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
479 for the license change).
480 [Rich Salz]
481
482 *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
483 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
484 [Matt Caswell]
485
486 *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
487 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
488 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
489 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
490 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
491 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
492 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
493 [Matt Caswell]
494
495 *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
496 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
497 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
498 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
499 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
500 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
501 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
502 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
503 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
504 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
505 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
506 written to stderr.
507 [Viktor Dukhovni]
508
509 *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
510 Mike Hamburg.
511 [Matt Caswell]
512
513 *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
514 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
515 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
516 get the search data out of them.
517 [Richard Levitte]
518
519 *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
520 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
521 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
522 https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3
523 [Matt Caswell]
524
525 *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
526
527 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
528 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
529 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
530 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
531 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
532 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
533
534 Some of its new features are:
535 o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
536 o The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
537 o There is a public and private DRBG instance.
538 o The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
539 o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
540 o The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
541 operation
542 [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
543
544 *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
545 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
546 to display all sorts of configuration data.
547 [Richard Levitte]
548
549 *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
550 [Richard Levitte]
551
552 *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
553 [Paul Dale]
554
555 *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
556 now been removed.
557 [Rich Salz]
558
559 *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
560 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
561 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
562 debug (or make silent).
563 [Richard Levitte]
564
565 *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
566 arguments to config / Configure.
567 [Richard Levitte]
568
569 *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
570 [Paul Yang]
571
572 *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
573 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
574 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
575 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
576
577 *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
578 as documented in RFC6066.
579 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
580 [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
581
582 *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
583 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
584 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
585 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
586
587 *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
588 original author does not agree with the license change.
589 [Rich Salz]
590
591 *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
592 [Jon Spillett]
593
594 *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
595 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
596 [Rich Salz]
597
598 *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
599 without clearing the errors.
600 [Richard Levitte]
601
602 *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
603 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
604 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
605 [Rich Salz]
606
607 *) Add SHA3.
608 [Andy Polyakov]
609
610 *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
611 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
612 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
613 as a fallback).
614
615 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
616 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
617 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
618 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
619 [Richard Levitte]
620
621 *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
622 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
623 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
624 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
625 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
626 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
627 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
628 [Richard Levitte]
629
630 *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
631 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
632 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
633 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
634 [Richard Levitte]
635
636 *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
637 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
638 error code calls like this:
639
640 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
641
642 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
643 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
644 affect new modules.
645 [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
646
647 *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
648 [Rich Salz]
649
650 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
651 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
652 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
653 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
654 [Richard Levitte]
655
656 *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
657 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
658 than just the call where this user data is passed.
659 [Richard Levitte]
660
661 *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
662 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
663 [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
664
665 *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
666 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
667 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
668 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
669 prohibts this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
670 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
671 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause inter-operability
672 issues.
673 [Matt Caswell]
674
675 *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
676 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
677 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
678 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
679 [Richard Levitte]
680
681 *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
682 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
683 [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
684
685 *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
686 does for RSA, etc.
687 [Richard Levitte]
688
689 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
690 platform rather than 'mingw'.
691 [Richard Levitte]
692
693 *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
694 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
695 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
696 certificates and CRLs.
697 [Paul Dale]
698
699 *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
700 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
701 [Andy Polyakov]
702
703 *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
704 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
705 [Richard Levitte]
706
707 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
708 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
709 which is the minimum version we support.
710 [Richard Levitte]
711
712 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
713 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
714 are no longer allowed.
715 [Emilia Käsper]
716
717 *) Add support for ARIA
718 [Paul Dale]
719
720 *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
721 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
722 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
723 using "-servername".
724 [Matt Caswell]
725
726 *) Add support for SipHash
727 [Todd Short]
728
729 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
730 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
731 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
732 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
733 [Matt Caswell]
734
735 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
736 using the algorithm defined in
737 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
738 [Richard Levitte]
739
740 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
741 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
742
743 *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
744 [Emilia Käsper]
745
746 *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
747 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
748 [Rich Salz]
749
750
751 Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [xx XXX xxxx]
752
753 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
754
755 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
756 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
757 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
758 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
759 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
760
761 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
762 (CVE-2018-0732)
763 [Guido Vranken]
764
765 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
766
767 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
768 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
769 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
770 recover the private key.
771
772 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
773 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
774 (CVE-2018-0737)
775 [Billy Brumley]
776
777 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
778 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
779 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
780 [Richard Levitte]
781
782 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
783 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
784 [Andy Polyakov]
785
786 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
787 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
788 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
789 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
790 to 2^-128.
791 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
792
793 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
794 [Kurt Roeckx]
795
796 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
797 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
798 [Matt Caswell]
799
800 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
801 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
802 [Richard Levitte]
803
804 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
805 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
806 are no longer allowed.
807 [Emilia Käsper]
808
809 *) Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
810
811 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
812 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
813 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
814 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
815 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
816 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
817 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
818 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
819 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
820 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
821 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
822 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
823 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).
824 [Matt Caswell]
825
826 Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
827
828 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
829
830 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
831 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
832 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
833 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
834 so this is considered safe.
835
836 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
837 project.
838 (CVE-2018-0739)
839 [Matt Caswell]
840
841 *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
842
843 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
844 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
845 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
846 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
847 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
848 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
849
850 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
851 (IBM).
852 (CVE-2018-0733)
853 [Andy Polyakov]
854
855 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
856 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
857 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
858 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
859 [Richard Levitte]
860
861 *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
862
863 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
864 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
865 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
866 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
867 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
868
869 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
870 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
871 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
872 [Matt Caswell]
873
874 *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
875 exist.
876 [Rich Salz]
877
878 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
879
880 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
881 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
882 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
883 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
884 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
885 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
886 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
887 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
888 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
889 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
890
891 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
892 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
893
894 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
895 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
896 (CVE-2017-3738)
897 [Andy Polyakov]
898
899 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
900
901 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
902
903 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
904 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
905 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
906 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
907 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
908 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
909 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
910 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
911 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
912 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
913 key that is shared between multiple clients.
914
915 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
916 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
917
918 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
919 (CVE-2017-3736)
920 [Andy Polyakov]
921
922 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
923
924 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
925 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
926 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
927
928 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
929 (CVE-2017-3735)
930 [Rich Salz]
931
932 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
933
934 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
935 platform rather than 'mingw'.
936 [Richard Levitte]
937
938 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
939 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
940 which is the minimum version we support.

942
943 Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
944
945 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
946
947 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
948 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
949 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
950 and servers are affected.
951
952 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
953 (CVE-2017-3733)
954 [Matt Caswell]
955
956 Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
957
958 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
959
960 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
961 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
962 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
963
964 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
965 (CVE-2017-3731)
966 [Andy Polyakov]
967
968 *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
969
970 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
971 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
972 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
973 of Service attack.
974
975 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
976 (CVE-2017-3730)
977 [Matt Caswell]
978
979 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
980
981 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
982 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
983 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
984 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
985 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
986 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
987 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
988 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
989 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
990 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
991 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
992 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
993 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
994
995 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.

1000
1001 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
1002
1003 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
1004 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
1005 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.
1006
1007 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki (Google Security Team)
1008 (CVE-2016-7054)
1009 [Richard Levitte]
1010
1011 *) CMS Null dereference
1012
1013 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
1014 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
1015 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
1016 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
1017 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
1018 affected.
1019
1020 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
1021 (CVE-2016-7053)
1022 [Stephen Henson]
1023
1024 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
1025
1026 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
1027 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
1028 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
1029 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
1030 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
1031 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
1032 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
1033 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
1034 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
1035 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
1036 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
1037 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
1038 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
1039 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
1040
1041 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
1042 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
1043 providing reproducible case.
1044 (CVE-2016-7055)
1045 [Andy Polyakov]
1046
1047 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
1048 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
1049 [Richard Levitte]
1050
1051 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
1052
1053 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
1054
1055 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
1056 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
1057 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
1058 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
1059 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
1060 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
1061
1062 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
1063
1064 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.
1065 (CVE-2016-6309)
1066 [Matt Caswell]
1067
1068 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
1069
1070 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
1071
1072 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
1073 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
1074 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
1075 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
1076 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
1077 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
1078 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
1079
1080 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1081 (CVE-2016-6304)
1082 [Matt Caswell]
1083
1084 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
1085
1086 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
1087 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
1088 Denial Of Service attack.
1089
1090 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
1091 (CVE-2016-6305)
1092 [Matt Caswell]
1093
1094 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
1095 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
1096
1097 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
1098 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
1099 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
1100 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
1101 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
1102 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
1103 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
1104 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
1105 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
1106 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
1107 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
1108 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
1109 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
1110 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
1111 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
1112
1113 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
1114 that the connection fails
1115 or
1116 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
1117 very little free memory
1118 or
1119 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
1120 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
1121 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
1122 memory to service the multiple requests.
1123
1124 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
1125 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
1126 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
1127 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
1128 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
1129
1130 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1131 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
1132 [Matt Caswell]
1133
1134 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
1135 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
1136 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
1137 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
1138 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
1139 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
1140 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
1141 [Andy Polyakov]
1142
1143 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
1144
1145 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
1146 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
1147 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
1148 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
1149 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
1150 non-ASCII password.
1151 [Andy Polyakov]
1152
1153 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
1154 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
1155 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
1156 [Rich Salz]
1157
1158 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
1159 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
1160 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
1161 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
1162 [Matt Caswell]
1163
1164 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
1165 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
1166 success.
1167 [Matt Caswell]
1168
1169 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
1170 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
1171 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
1172 no-ops and deprecated.
1173 [Matt Caswell]
1174
1175 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
1176 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
1177 were also closed.
1178 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
1179
1180 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
1181 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
1182 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
1183 [Rich Salz]
1184
1185 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
1186 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
1187 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
1188 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
1189 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
1190 and the validity of object reference counter.
1191 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
1192
1193 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
1194 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
1195 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
1196 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
1197 [Richard Levitte]
1198
1199 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
1200 [Richard Levitte]
1201
1202 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
1203 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
1204 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
1205 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
1206
1207 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
1208
1209 [Richard Levitte]
1210
1211 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
1212 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
1213 [Steve Henson]
1214
1215 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
1216 [Andy Polyakov]
1217
1218 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
1219 [Rich Salz]
1220
1221 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
1222 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
1223 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
1224 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
1225 name and is used as is.
1226 [Richard Levitte]
1227
1228 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
1229 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
1230 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
1231 [Rich Salz]
1232
1233 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
1234 the "no-shared" Configure option.
1235 [Matt Caswell]
1236
1237 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
1238 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
1239 algorithms.
1240 [Matt Caswell]
1241
1242 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
1243 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
1244 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
1245 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
1246 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
1247 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
1248 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
1249 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
1250 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
1251 [Matt Caswell]
1252
1253 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
1254 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
1255 enabled with '--debug' builds.
1256 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
1257
1258 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
1259 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1260 these have been added.
1261 [Matt Caswell]
1262
1263 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
1264 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
1265 functions for managing these have been added.
1266 [Richard Levitte]
1267
1268 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1269 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1270 these have been added.
1271 [Matt Caswell]
1272
1273 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1274 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1275 have been added.
1276 [Matt Caswell]
1277
1278 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1279 [Matt Caswell]
1280
1281 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1282 [Richard Levitte]
1283
1284 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1285 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1286 [Rich Salz]
1287
1288 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1289 [Richard Levitte]
1290
1291 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1292 [Rich Salz]
1293
1294 *) Add support for HKDF.
1295 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1296
1297 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1298 [Bill Cox]
1299
1300 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1301 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1302 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1303 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1304 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1305 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1306 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1307 [Matt Caswell]
1308
1309 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1310 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1311 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1312 [Catriona Lucey]
1313
1314 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1315 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1316 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1317 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1318 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1319 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1320 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1321
1322 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1323 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1324 [Todd Short]
1325
1326 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1327 [Todd Short]
1328
1329 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1330 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1331 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1332 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1333 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1334 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1335 default cipherlist.
1336 [Emilia Käsper]
1337
1338 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1339 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1340 [Rich Salz]
1341
1342 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1343 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1344 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1345 [Matt Caswell]
1346
1347 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1348 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1349 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1350 implemented by other servers.
1351 [Emilia Käsper]
1352
1353 *) Add X25519 support.
1354 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1355 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1356 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1357 key generation and key derivation.
1358
1359 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1360 X25519(29).
1361 [Steve Henson]
1362
1363 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1364 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1365 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1366 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1367 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1368
1369 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1370 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1371 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1372 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1373 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1374 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1375 that of a valid user.
1376 [Emilia Käsper]
1377
1378 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1379 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1380 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1381 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1382
1383 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1384 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1385
1386 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1387 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1388 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1389 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1390
1391 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1392 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1393 irrelevant.
1394 [Richard Levitte]
1395
1396 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1397 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1398 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1399 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1400 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1401 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1402
1403 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1404 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1405 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1406 [Richard Levitte]
1407
1408 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1409 [Rich Salz]
1410
1411 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1412 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1413 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1414 removed.
1415 [Richard Levitte]
1416
1417 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1418 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1419 old #define's might need to be updated.
1420 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1421
1422 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1423 [Rich Salz]
1424
1425 *) New "unified" build system
1426
1427 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1428 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1429
1430 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1431 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1432 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1433
1434 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1435 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1436 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1437 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1438 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1439
1440 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1441 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1442 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1443 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1444 libraries" in INSTALL.
1445
1446 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1447 [Richard Levitte]
1448
1449 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1450 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1451 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1452 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1453 [Matt Caswell]
1454
1455 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1456 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1457
1458 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1459 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1460 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1461 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1462 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1463 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1464 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1465 have been adapted accordingly.
1466 [Richard Levitte]
1467
1468 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1469 the leading 0-byte.
1470 [Emilia Käsper]
1471
1472 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1473 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1474 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1475 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1476 [Emilia Käsper]
1477
1478 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1479 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1480 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1481 'unsigned char*'.
1482 [Emilia Käsper]
1483
1484 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1485 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1486 [Emilia Käsper]
1487
1488 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1489 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1490 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1491 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1492 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1493 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1494 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1495
1496 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1497 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1498
1499 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1500 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1501 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1502 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1503 Text::Template.
1504
1505 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1506 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1507 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1508 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1509 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1510 %target).
1511 [Richard Levitte]
1512
1513 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1514 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1515 straightforward and less interdependent.
1516
1517 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1518 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1519 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1520
1521 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1522 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1523 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1524 installed.
1525 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1526 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1527 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1528 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1529
1530 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1531 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1532 [Richard Levitte]
1533
1534 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1535 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1536 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1537 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1538 is present).
1539 [Matt Caswell]
1540
1541 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1542 configuring.
1543 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1544
1545 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1546 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1547 before trying to build now.*
1548 [Rich Salz]
1549
1550 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1551 has changed.
1552 [Rich Salz]
1553
1554 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1555
1556 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1557 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1558 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
1559 used to authenticate the peer.
1560
1561 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
1562 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
1563 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
1564 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
1565 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
1566 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1567
1568 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
1569 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
1570 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
1571 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
1572 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
1573 or the 1.1.0 releases.
1574
1575 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
1576 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
1577 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
1578 support for the deprecated features from the library and
1579 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
1580 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
1581 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
1582 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
1583 version.
1584
1585 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
1586 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
1587 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
1588 compile with later releases.
1589
1590 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
1591 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
1592 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
1593 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
1594 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
1595 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1596
1597 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
1598 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
1599 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
1600 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
1601 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
1602 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
1603 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
1604 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
1605 [Kurt Roeckx]
1606
1607 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
1608 [Andy Polyakov]
1609
1610 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
1611 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
1612 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
1613 ECDSA_SIG format.
1614
1615 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
1616 include the ec.h header file instead.
1617 [Steve Henson]
1618
1619 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
1620 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
1621 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
1622 [Kurt Roeckx]
1623
1624 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
1625 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
1626 were added:
1627
1628 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
1629 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
1630
1631 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
1632 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
1633 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
1634
1635 Additional changes:
1636 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
1637 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
1638 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
1639 an already created structure.
1640 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
1641 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
1642 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
1643 for deprecated builds.
1644 [Richard Levitte]
1645
1646 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
1647 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
1648 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
1649 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
1650 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
1651 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
1652 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
1653 [Matt Caswell]
1654
1655 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
1656 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
1657 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
1658 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
1659 [Kurt Roeckx]
1660
1661 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
1662 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
1663 [Kurt Roeckx]
1664
1665 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
1666 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
1667 [Kurt Roeckx]
1668
1669 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
1670 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
1671 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
1672 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
1673 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
1674 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
1675 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
1676 also been removed.
1677 [Matt Caswell]
1678
1679 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
1680 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
1681 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
1682 [Rich Salz]
1683
1684 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
1685 [Rich Salz]
1686
1687 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
1688 sureware and ubsec.
1689 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
1690
1691 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
1692
1693 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
1694 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
1695
1696 FOO *x;
1697
1698 it must be:
1699
1700 FOO x;
1701
1702 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
1703 set a mandatory field to NULL.
1704
1705 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
1706 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
1707 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
1708 SEQUENCE OF.
1709 [Steve Henson]
1710
1711 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
1712 [Emilia Käsper]
1713
1714 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
1715 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
1716 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
1717 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
1718 [Matt Caswell]
1719
1720 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
1721 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
1722 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
1723 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
1724 [Emilia Käsper]
1725
1726 *) Fix no-stdio build.
1727 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
1728 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
1729
1730 *) New testing framework
1731 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
1732 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
1733 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
1734 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
1735 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
1736 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
1737
1738 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
1739
1740 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
1741 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
1742
1743 [Richard Levitte]
1744
1745 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
1746 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
1747 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
1748 and others were changed. All are now documented.
1749 [Rich Salz]
1750
1751 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
1752 return an error
1753 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
1754
1755 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
1756 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
1757
1758 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
1759 original RSA_PSK patch.
1760 [Steve Henson]
1761
1762 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
1763 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
1764 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
1765 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
1766 [Matt Caswell]
1767
1768 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
1769 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
1770 [Richard Levitte]
1771
1772 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
1773 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
1774 hasn't been working properly for a while.
1775 [Emilia Käsper]
1776
1777 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
1778 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
1779 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
1780 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
1781 transferred.
1782 [Matt Caswell]
1783
1784 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
1785 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
1786 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
1787 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
1788 [Matt Caswell]
1789
1790 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
1791 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
1792 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
1793 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
1794 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
1795 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
1796 [Matt Caswell]
1797
1798 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
1799 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
1800 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
1801 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
1802 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
1803 header file has been removed.
1804 [Matt Caswell]
1805
1806 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
1807 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
1808 [Matt Caswell]
1809
1810 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
1811 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
1812 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
1813
1814 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
1815 Added a test.
1816 [Rich Salz]
1817
1818 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
1819 [Rich Salz]
1820
1821 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
1822 sha256
1823 [Rich Salz]
1824
1825 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
1826 [Matt Caswell]
1827
1828 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
1829 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
1830 initial patch which was a great help during development.
1831 [Steve Henson]
1832
1833 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
1834 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
1835 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
1836 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
1837 [Matt Caswell]
1838
1839 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
1840 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
1841 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
1842 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
1843 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
1844 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
1845 [Matt Caswell]
1846
1847 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
1848 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
1849 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
1850 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
1851 [Matt Caswell]
1852
1853 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
1854 compatible client hello.
1855 [Kurt Roeckx]
1856
1857 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
1858 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
1859 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
1860
1861 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
1862 [Rich Salz]
1863
1864 *) Removed old DES API.
1865 [Rich Salz]
1866
1867 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
1868 Sony NEWS4
1869 BEOS and BEOS_R5
1870 NeXT
1871 SUNOS
1872 MPE/iX
1873 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
1874 DGUX
1875 NCR
1876 Tandem
1877 Cray
1878 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
1879 [Rich Salz]
1880
1881 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
1882 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
1883 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
1884 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
1885 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
1886 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
1887 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
1888 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
1889 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
1890 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
1891 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
1892 [Rich Salz]
1893
1894 *) Cleaned up dead code
1895 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
1896 [Rich Salz]
1897
1898 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
1899 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
1900 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
1901 [Rich Salz]
1902
1903 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
1904 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
1905 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
1906 [Rich Salz]
1907
1908 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
1909 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
1910 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
1911
1912 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
1913 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
1914 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
1915
1916 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1917 compilation flags.
1918 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1919
1920 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1921 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1922 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1923
1924 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1925 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1926
1927 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1928 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1929 server.
1930
1931 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1932 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1933 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1934 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1935
1936 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1937 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1938 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1939 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1940
1941 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1942 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1943 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1944
1945 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1946 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1947 [Steve Henson]
1948
1949 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
1950
1951 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
1952 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
1953
1954 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
1955 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
1956
1957 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
1958 effect.
1959
1960 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
1961
1962 [Steve Henson]
1963
1964 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1965 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1966 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1967 algorithms and include tests cases.
1968 [Steve Henson]
1969
1970 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
1971 enveloped data.
1972 [Steve Henson]
1973
1974 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1975 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1976 [Steve Henson]
1977
1978 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1979 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1980
1981 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
1982 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
1983 [Steve Henson]
1984
1985 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
1986 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
1987 failures.
1988 [Steve Henson]
1989
1990 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
1991 sign or verify all in one operation.
1992 [Steve Henson]
1993
1994 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
1995 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
1996 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
1997 [Steve Henson]
1998
1999 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
2000 [Steve Henson]
2001
2002 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
2003 [Steve Henson]
2004
2005 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
2006 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
2007 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
2008 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
2009 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
2010 [Steve Henson]
2011
2012 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
2013 based on NID.
2014 [Steve Henson]
2015
2016 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
2017 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
2018 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
2019 [Steve Henson]
2020
2021 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
2022 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
2023
2024 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
2025 POST to handle HMAC cases.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
2028 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
2029 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
2030 [Steve Henson]
2031
2032 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
2033 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
2034 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2035 [Steve Henson]
2036
2037 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
2038 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
2039 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
2040 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
2041 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
2042 requested amount of entropy.
2043 [Steve Henson]
2044
2045 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
2046 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
2047 [Steve Henson]
2048
2049 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
2050 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
2051 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
2052 support.
2053 [Steve Henson]
2054
2055 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
2056 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
2057 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
2058 [Steve Henson]
2059
2060 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
2061 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
2062 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
2063 will never use XTS mode.
2064 [Steve Henson]
2065
2066 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
2067 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
2068 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
2069 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
2070 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
2071 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
2072 [Steve Henson]
2073
2074 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
2075 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
2076 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
2077 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
2078 [Steve Henson]
2079
2080 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
2081 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
2082 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
2083 [Steve Henson]
2084
2085 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
2086 [Steve Henson]
2087
2088 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
2089 [Steve Henson]
2090
2091 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
2092 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
2093 [Steve Henson]
2094
2095 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
2096 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
2097 [Steve Henson]
2098
2099 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
2100 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
2101 [Steve Henson]
2102
2103 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
2104 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
2105 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
2106 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
2107 and rename any affected symbols.
2108 [Steve Henson]
2109
2110 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
2111 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
2112 [Steve Henson]
2113
2114 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
2115 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
2116 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
2117 [Steve Henson]
2118
2119 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2120 [Steve Henson]
2121
2122 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
2123 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
2124 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
2125 [Steve Henson]
2126
2127 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
2128 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
2129 [Steve Henson]
2130
2131 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
2132 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
2133 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
2134 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
2135 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
2136 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
2137 set before the key.
2138 [Steve Henson]
2139
2140 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
2141 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
2142 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
2143 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
2144 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
2145 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
2146 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
2147 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
2148 [Steve Henson]
2149
2150 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
2151 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
2152 [Steve Henson]
2153
2154 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
2155
2156 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2157 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2158
2159 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
2160 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
2161 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
2162 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
2163 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
2164 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
2165
2166 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
2167 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
2168 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
2169 security.
2170 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2171
2172 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
2173 parameters by name.
2174 [Steve Henson]
2175
2176 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
2177 Add CMAC pkey methods.
2178 [Steve Henson]
2179
2180 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
2181 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
2182 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
2183 [Steve Henson]
2184
2185 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
2186 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
2187 multi-process servers.
2188 [Steve Henson]
2189
2190 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
2191 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
2192 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
2193 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
2194 RAND_METHOD structure.
2195 [Steve Henson]
2196
2197 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
2198 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
2199 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
2200 whose return value is often ignored.
2201 [Steve Henson]
2202
2203 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
2204 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
2205 validated when establishing a connection.
2206 [Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>]

2208 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
2209
2210 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
2211
2212 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
2213 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
2214 AES-NI.
2215
2216 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
2217 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
2218 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
2219 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
2220 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
2221 bytes.
2222
2223 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
2224 (CVE-2016-2107)
2225 [Kurt Roeckx]
2226
2227 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
2228
2229 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
2230 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
2231 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
2232 corruption.
2233
2234 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
2235 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
2236 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
2237 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
2238 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
2239 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
2240
2241 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2242 (CVE-2016-2105)
2243 [Matt Caswell]
2244
2245 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
2246
2247 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
2248 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
2249 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
2250 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
2251 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
2252 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
2253 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
2254 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
2255 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
2256 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
2257 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
2258 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
2259 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
2260 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
2261 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
2262 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
2263
2264 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2265 (CVE-2016-2106)
2266 [Matt Caswell]
2267
2268 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2269
2270 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2271 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2272 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2273
2274 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2275 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2276 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2277 applications are not affected.
2278
2279 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
2280 (CVE-2016-2109)
2281 [Stephen Henson]
2282
2283 *) EBCDIC overread
2284
2285 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2286 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2287 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
2288
2289 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2290 (CVE-2016-2176)
2291 [Matt Caswell]
2292
2293 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2294 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2295 [Todd Short]
2296
2297 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
2298 default.
2299 [Kurt Roeckx]
2300
2301 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
2302 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
2303 [Kurt Roeckx]
2304
2305 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2306
2307 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2308 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2309 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2310 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2311
2312 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2313 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2314 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2315 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2316 will need to explicitly call either of:
2317
2318 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2319 or
2320 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2321
2322 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2323 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2324 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2325 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2326 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
2327 (CVE-2016-0800)
2328 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2329
2330 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2331
2332 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2333 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2334 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2335 considered rare.
2336
2337 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2338 libFuzzer.
2339 (CVE-2016-0705)
2340 [Stephen Henson]
2341
2342 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2343
2344 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2345
2346 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2347 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2348 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2349 is configured.
2350
2351 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2352 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2353 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2354 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2355 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2356 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2357 that of a valid user.
2358 (CVE-2016-0798)
2359 [Emilia Käsper]
2360
2361 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2362
2363 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2364 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2365 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2366 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2367 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2368 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2369 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2370 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2371 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2372 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2373 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2374
2375 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2376 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2377 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2378 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2379 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
2380
2381 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
2382 (CVE-2016-0797)
2383 [Matt Caswell]
2384
2385 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2386
2387 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2388 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2389 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2390
2391 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2392 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2393 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2394 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2395 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2396 also occur.
2397
2398 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2399 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2400 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2401 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2402 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2403 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2404 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2405 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2406 as command line arguments.
2407
2408 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2409 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2410 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
2411
2412 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
2413 (CVE-2016-0799)
2414 [Matt Caswell]
2415
2416 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2417
2418 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2419 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2420 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2421 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2422 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2423
2424 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2425 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
2426 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
2427 http://cachebleed.info.

2430
2431 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
2432 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
2433 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
2434 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
2435 [Emilia Käsper]
2436
2437 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2438 *) DH small subgroups
2439
2440 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2441 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2442 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2443 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2444 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2445 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2446 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2447 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2448 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2449 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2450
2451 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2452 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2453 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2454 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2455 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2456
2457 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2458 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2459 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2460 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2461
2462 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2463 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
2464
2465 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).

2468
2469 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
2470
2471 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
2472 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
2473 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2474 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

2476 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
2477 and Sebastian Schinzel.

2479 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2480
2481 Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
2482
2483 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2484
2485 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2486 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2487 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2488 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2489 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2490 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2491 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2492 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2493 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2494 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2495 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2496 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2498 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
2499 (CVE-2015-3193)
2500 [Andy Polyakov]
2501
2502 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
2503
2504 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2505 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2506 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2507 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2508 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
2509 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
2510 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
2511 authentication.
2512
2513 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
2514 (CVE-2015-3194)
2515 [Stephen Henson]
2516
2517 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
2518
2519 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
2520 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
2521 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
2522 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
2523
2524 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
2525 libFuzzer.
2526 (CVE-2015-3195)
2527 [Stephen Henson]
2528
2529 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2530 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
2531 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
2532 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
2533 [Emilia Käsper]
2534
2535 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
2536 return an error
2537 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
2538
2539 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
2540
2541 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
2542
2543 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
2544 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2545 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2546 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2547 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2548 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
2549
2550 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
2551 (Google/BoringSSL).
2552 [Matt Caswell]
2553
2554 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
2555
2556 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
2557 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
2558 restored.
2559 [Matt Caswell]
2560
2561 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
2562
2563 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
2564
2565 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
2566 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
2567 field.
2568
2569 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
2570 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
2571 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
2572 client authentication enabled.
2573
2574 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
2575 (CVE-2015-1788)
2576 [Andy Polyakov]
2577
2578 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
2579
2580 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
2581 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
2582 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
2583 time string.
2584
2585 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
2586 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
2587 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
2588 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
2589 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
2590 callbacks.
2591
2592 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
2593 independently by Hanno Böck.
2594 (CVE-2015-1789)
2595 [Emilia Käsper]
2596
2597 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
2598
2599 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
2600 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
2601 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2602
2603 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
2604 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
2605 servers are not affected.
2606
2607 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2608 (CVE-2015-1790)
2609 [Emilia Käsper]
2610
2611 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
2612
2613 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
2614 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
2615 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
2616 the CMS code.
2617 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
2618 (CVE-2015-1792)
2619 [Stephen Henson]
2620
2621 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
2622
2623 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
2624 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
2625 a double free of the ticket data.
2626 (CVE-2015-1791)
2627 [Matt Caswell]
2628
2629 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
2630 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
2631 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
2632 [Emilia Kasper]
2633
2634 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
2635
2636 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
2637
2638 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
2639 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
2640 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
2641
2642 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
2643 University.
2644 (CVE-2015-0291)
2645 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
2646
2647 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
2648
2649 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
2650 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
2651 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
2652 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
2653 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
2654 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
2655 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
2656 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
2657
2658 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
2659 (CVE-2015-0290)
2660 [Matt Caswell]
2661
2662 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
2663
2664 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
2665 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
2666 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
2667 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
2668 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
2669 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
2670 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
2671 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
2672 server.
2673
2674 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
2675 (CVE-2015-0207)
2676 [Matt Caswell]
2677
2678 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
2679
2680 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
2681 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
2682 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
2683 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2684 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2685 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2686 (CVE-2015-0286)
2687 [Stephen Henson]
2688
2689 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
2690
2691 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2692 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2693 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
2694 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
2695 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2696 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2697 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2698
2699 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
2700 (CVE-2015-0208)
2701 [Stephen Henson]
2702
2703 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
2704
2705 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
2706 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
2707 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
2708
2709 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
2710 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
2711 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
2712 not affected.
2713 (CVE-2015-0287)
2714 [Stephen Henson]
2715
2716 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
2717
2718 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
2719 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
2720 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2721
2722 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
2723 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
2724 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
2725
2726 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2727 (CVE-2015-0289)
2728 [Emilia Käsper]
2729
2730 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
2731
2732 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
2733 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
2734 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
2735
2736 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
2737 (OpenSSL development team).
2738 (CVE-2015-0293)
2739 [Emilia Käsper]
2740
2741 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
2742
2743 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
2744 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
2745 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
2746 (CVE-2015-1787)
2747 [Matt Caswell]
2748
2749 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
2750
2751 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
2752 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
2753 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
2754 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
2755 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
2756 SSL_client_methodv23)
2757 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
2758 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
2759
2760 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
2761 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
2762 output may be predictable.
2763
2764 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
2765 succeed on an unpatched platform:
2766
2767 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
2768 (CVE-2015-0285)
2769 [Matt Caswell]
2770
2771 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
2772
2773 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
2774 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
2775 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
2776 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
2777 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
2778 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
2779
2780 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
2781 commit 517073cd4b.
2782 (CVE-2015-0209)
2783 [Matt Caswell]
2784
2785 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
2786
2787 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
2788 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
2789
2790 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
2791 (CVE-2015-0288)
2792 [Stephen Henson]
2793
2794 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
2795 [Kurt Roeckx]
2796
2797 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
2798
2799 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
2800 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
2801 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
2802 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
2803 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
2804 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
2805 [Andy Polyakov]
2806
2807 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
2808 (other platforms pending).
2809 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
2810
2811 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
2812 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
2813 [Rob Stradling]
2814
2815 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2816 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2817 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2818 [Bodo Moeller]
2819
2820 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
2821 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
2822 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
2823 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
2824 [Andy Polyakov]
2825
2826 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
2827 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
2828
2829 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
2830 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
2831 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
2832 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
2833 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
2834
2835 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
2836 [Andy Polyakov]
2837
2838 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
2839 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
2840 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
2841 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
2842
2843 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
2844 RSAZ.
2845 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
2846
2847 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
2848 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
2849 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
2850 for TLS encrypt.
2851
2852 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
2853 [Andy Polyakov]
2854
2855 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
2856 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
2857 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
2858 [Steve Henson]
2859
2860 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2861 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2862 [Steve Henson]
2863
2864 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2865 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2866 [Steve Henson]
2867
2868 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2869 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2870 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2871 algorithms and include tests cases.
2872 [Steve Henson]
2873
2874 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
2875 structure.
2876 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
2877
2878 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
2879 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
2880 [Steve Henson]
2881
2882 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
2883 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
2884 summary of the connection parameters.
2885 [Steve Henson]
2886
2887 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
2888 of connection parameters.
2889 [Steve Henson]
2890
2891 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
2892 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
2893
2894 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
2895 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
2896 [Steve Henson]
2897
2898 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
2899 [Steve Henson]
2900
2901 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
2902 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
2903 [Steve Henson]
2904
2905 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
2906 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
2907 [Steve Henson]
2908
2909 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
2910 certificates.
2911 [Steve Henson]
2912
2913 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
2914 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
2915 CRLs using the OCSP API.
2916 [Steve Henson]
2917
2918 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
2919 [Steve Henson]
2920
2921 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
2922 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
2923 [Steve Henson]
2924
2925 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
2926 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
2927 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
2928 tracing.
2929 [Steve Henson]
2930
2931 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
2932 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
2933 [Steve Henson]
2934
2935 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
2936 OID NID.
2937 [Steve Henson]
2938
2939 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
2940 client to OpenSSL.
2941 [Steve Henson]
2942
2943 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
2944 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
2945 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
2946 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
2947 [Steve Henson]
2948
2949 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
2950 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
2951 [Steve Henson]
2952
2953 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
2954 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
2955 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
2956 comparison.
2957 [Steve Henson]
2958
2959 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
2960 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
2961 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
2962 use the certificate.
2963 [Steve Henson]
2964
2965 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
2966 [Steve Henson]
2967
2968 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
2969 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
2970 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
2971 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
2972 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
2973 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
2974 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
2975
2976 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
2977 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
2978
2979 [Steve Henson]
2980
2981 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
2982 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
2983 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
2984 [Steve Henson]
2985
2986 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
2987 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
2988 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
2989 supported signature algorithms.
2990 [Steve Henson]
2991
2992 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
2993 [Steve Henson]
2994
2995 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
2996 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
2997 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
2998 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
2999 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
3000 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
3001 certificate and specify the whole chain.
3002 [Steve Henson]
3003
3004 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
3005 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
3006 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
3007 to have similar checks in it.
3008
3009 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
3010 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
3011 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
3012 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
3013 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
3014 [Steve Henson]
3015
3016 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
3017 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
3018 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
3019 shared signature algorithms.
3020 [Steve Henson]
3021
3022 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
3023 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
3024 to support them.
3025 [Steve Henson]
3026
3027 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
3028 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
3029 it couldn't be removed.
3030 [Steve Henson]
3031
3032 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
3033 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
3034 [Steve Henson]
3035
3036 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
3037 functions. Add manual page.
3038 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
3039
3040 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
3041 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
3042 a certificate.
3043 [Steve Henson]
3044
3045 *) Fix OCSP checking.
3046 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
3047
3048 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
3049 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
3050 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
3051 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
3052 utility) or reject.
3053 [Steve Henson]
3054
3055 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
3056 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
3057 [Steve Henson]
3058
3059 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
3060 platform support for Linux and Android.
3061 [Andy Polyakov]
3062
3063 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
3064 [Andy Polyakov]
3065
3066 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
3067 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
3068 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
3069 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
3070 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
3071 [Steve Henson]
3072
3073 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
3074 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
3075 the new parameter format automatically.
3076 [Steve Henson]
3077
3078 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
3079 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
3080 [Steve Henson]
3081
3082 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
3083 [Steve Henson]
3084
3085 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
3086 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
3087 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
3088 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
3089 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
3090 [Steve Henson]
3091
3092 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
3093 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
3094 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
3095 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
3096 to set list of supported curves.
3097 [Steve Henson]
3098
3099 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
3100 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
3101 to print out received values.
3102 [Steve Henson]
3103
3104 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
3105 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
3106 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
3107 [Steve Henson]
3108
3109 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
3110 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
3111 [Steve Henson]
3112
3113 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
3114 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
3115 [Steve Henson]
3116
3117 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
3118 certificates.
3119 [Steve Henson]
3120
3121 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
3122 the certificate.
3123 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
3124 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
3125 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
3126
3127 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
3128
3129 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
3130 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
3131
3132 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
3133
3134 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
3135 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
3136 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
3137 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
3138 (CVE-2014-3571)
3139 [Steve Henson]
3140
3141 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
3142 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
3143 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
3144 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
3145 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
3146 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
3147 (CVE-2015-0206)
3148 [Matt Caswell]
3149
3150 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
3151 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
3152 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
3153 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
3154 (CVE-2014-3569)
3155 [Kurt Roeckx]
3156
3157 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
3158 ECDH ciphersuites.
3159
3160 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
3161 reporting this issue.
3162 (CVE-2014-3572)
3163 [Steve Henson]
3164
3165 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
3166 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
3167 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
3168 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
3169 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
3170 INRIA or reporting this issue.
3171 (CVE-2015-0204)
3172 [Steve Henson]
3173
3174 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
3175 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
3176 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
3177 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
3178 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
3179 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
3180 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
3181 this issue.
3182 (CVE-2015-0205)
3183 [Steve Henson]
3184
3185 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
3186 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
3187
3188 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
3189 and can vary with the CTX.
3190 [Adam Langley]
3191
3192 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
3193
3194 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
3195 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
3196 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
3197 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
3198 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
3199
3200 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
3201
3202 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
3203 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
3204
3205 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
3206
3207 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
3208 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
3209 errors for some broken certificates.
3210
3211 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
3212
3213 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
3214
3215 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
3216 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
3217
3218 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
3219 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
3220 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
3221 (negative or with leading zeroes).
3222
3223 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
3224 of the OpenSSL core team.
3225
3226 (CVE-2014-8275)
3227 [Steve Henson]
3228
3229 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
3230 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
3231 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
3232 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
3233 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
3234 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
3235 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
3236 the OpenSSL core team.
3237 (CVE-2014-3570)
3238 [Andy Polyakov]
3239
3240 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
3241 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
3242 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
3243 sanity and breaks all known clients.
3244 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
3245
3246 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
3247 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
3248 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
3249 [Emilia Käsper]
3250
3251 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
3252 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
3253 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3254 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
3255 announced in the initial ServerHello.
3256
3257 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
3258 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3259 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
3260 [Emilia Käsper]
3261
3262 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
3263
3264 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
3265
3266 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
3267 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
3268 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3269 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3270 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3271 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3272 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3273
3274 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3275 (CVE-2014-3513)
3276 [OpenSSL team]
3277
3278 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3279
3280 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3281 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3282 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3283 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3284 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3285 attack.
3286 (CVE-2014-3567)
3287 [Steve Henson]
3288
3289 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3290
3291 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3292 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3293 configured to send them.
3294 (CVE-2014-3568)
3295 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3296
3297 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3298 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3299 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3300 (CVE-2014-3566)
3301 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3302
3303 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3304
3305 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3306 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3307 DigestInfo structures.
3308
3309 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
3310
3311 [Steve Henson]
3312
3313 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3314
3315 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3316 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3317 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3318
3319 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3320 Group for discovering this issue.
3321 (CVE-2014-3512)
3322 [Steve Henson]
3323
3324 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3325 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3326 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3327 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3328 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3329
3330 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3331 researching this issue.
3332 (CVE-2014-3511)
3333 [David Benjamin]
3334
3335 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3336 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3337 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3338 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3339
3340 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3341 issue.
3342 (CVE-2014-3510)
3343 [Emilia Käsper]
3344
3345 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3346 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3347 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3348 (CVE-2014-3507)
3349 [Adam Langley]
3350
3351 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3352 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3353 Denial of Service attack.
3354 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3355 (CVE-2014-3506)
3356 [Adam Langley]
3357
3358 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3359 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3360 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3361 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3362 this issue.
3363 (CVE-2014-3505)
3364 [Adam Langley]
3365
3366 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3367 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3368 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3369
3370 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3371 issue.
3372 (CVE-2014-3509)
3373 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3374
3375 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3376 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3377 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3378 Denial of Service attack.
3379
3380 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3381 discovering and researching this issue.
3382 (CVE-2014-5139)
3383 [Steve Henson]
3384
3385 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3386 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3387 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3388 output to the attacker.
3389
3390 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3391 (CVE-2014-3508)
3392 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3393
3394 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3395 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3396 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3397 [Bodo Moeller]
3398
3399 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3400
3401 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3402 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3403 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3404
3405 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3406 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3407 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3408
3409 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3410 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3411 in a DoS attack.
3412
3413 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3414 (CVE-2014-0221)
3415 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3416
3417 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3418 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3419 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3420 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3421
3422 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3423 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3424
3425 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3426 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3427
3428 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3429 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3430 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3431
3432 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3433 compilation flags.
3434 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3435
3436 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3437 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3438 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3439
3440 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3441 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3442
3443 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3444
3445 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3446 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3447 server.
3448
3449 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3450 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3451 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3452 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3453
3454 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3455 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3456 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3457 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3458
3459 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3460 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3461 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3462
3463 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3464
3465 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3466 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3467 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3468 is at least 512 bytes long.
3469
3470 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
3471
3472 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3473
3474 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3475 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3476 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3477 (CVE-2013-4353)
3478
3479 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3480 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3481 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3482 [Steve Henson]
3483
3484 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3485 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3486 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3487 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3488 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3489 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3490 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3491
3492 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3493
3494 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3495 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3496 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3497
3498 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3499
3500 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3501
3502 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3503 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3504 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3505
3506 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3507 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3508 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
3509 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
3510 (CVE-2013-0169)
3511 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3512
3513 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3514 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3515 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
3516 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
3517 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
3518 (CVE-2012-2686)
3519 [Adam Langley]
3520
3521 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3522 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3523 [Steve Henson]
3524
3525 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3526 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3527
3528 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3529 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3530 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3531 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
3532 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
3533
3534 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3535 [Steve Henson]
3536
3537 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3538 if renegotiating.
3539 [Steve Henson]
3540
3541 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3542
3543 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3544 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3545
3546 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3547 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3548 (CVE-2012-2333)
3549 [Steve Henson]
3550
3551 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3552 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3553 [Steve Henson]
3554
3555 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3556 approved.
3557 [Steve Henson]
3558
3559 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
3560
3561 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
3562 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
3563 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
3564 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
3565 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
3566 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
3567 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
3568 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
3569 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
3570 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
3571 [Steve Henson]
3572
3573 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
3574 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
3575 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
3576 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
3577 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
3578 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
3579 client side.
3580 [Andy Polyakov]
3581
3582 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
3583
3584 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
3585 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
3586 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
3587
3588 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
3589 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
3590 (CVE-2012-2110)
3591 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
3592
3593 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
3594 [Adam Langley]
3595
3596 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
3597 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
3598
3599 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
3600 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
3601 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
3602 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
3603 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
3604 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
3605 Most broken servers should now work.
3606 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
3607 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
3608 [Steve Henson]
3609
3610 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
3611 [Andy Polyakov]
3612
3613 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
3614
3615 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
3616 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
3617 [Steve Henson]
3618
3619 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
3620 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
3621 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
3622 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
3623 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
3624 [Steve Henson]
3625
3626 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
3627 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
3628 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
3629 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
3630 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
3631 [Steve Henson]
3632
3633 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
3634 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3635
3636 *) Add support for SCTP.
3637 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3638
3639 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3640 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3641
3642 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
3643
3644 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
3645 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
3646 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
3647 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
3648 - s390x: z196 support;
3649 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
3650
3651 [Andy Polyakov]
3652
3653 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
3654 (removal of unnecessary code)
3655 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
3656
3657 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
3658 [Eric Rescorla]
3659
3660 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
3661 [Eric Rescorla]
3662
3663 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
3664 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
3665 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
3666 by Google.
3667 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3668
3669 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
3670 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
3671 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
3672 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
3673 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
3674
3675 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
3676 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
3677 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
3678
3679 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
3680 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
3681 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
3682
3683 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
3684 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
3685 implementations).
3686 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3687
3688 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
3689 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
3690 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
3691 [Steve Henson]
3692
3693 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
3694 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
3695 particular PSS.
3696 [Steve Henson]
3697
3698 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
3699 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
3700 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
3701 [Steve Henson]
3702
3703 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
3704 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
3705 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
3706 the appropriate parameters.
3707 [Steve Henson]
3708
3709 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
3710 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
3711 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
3712 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
3713 against a number of sample certificates.
3714 [Steve Henson]
3715
3716 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
3717 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
3718
3719 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
3720 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
3721
3722 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
3723 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
3724 parameters r, s.
3725 [Steve Henson]
3726
3727 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
3728 RFC3211.
3729 [Steve Henson]
3730
3731 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
3732 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
3733 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
3734 password based CMS).
3735 [Steve Henson]
3736
3737 *) Session-handling fixes:
3738 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
3739 but also support Session Tickets.
3740 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
3741 presented a ticket with an expired session.
3742 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
3743 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
3744 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
3745 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3746
3747 *) Fix PSK session representation.
3748 [Bodo Moeller]
3749
3750 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
3751
3752 This work was sponsored by Intel.
3753 [Andy Polyakov]
3754
3755 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
3756 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
3757 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
3758 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
3759 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
3760 [Steve Henson]
3761
3762 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
3763 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
3764 [Steve Henson]
3765
3766 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
3767 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
3768 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
3769 [Steve Henson]
3770
3771 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
3772 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
3773 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
3774 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
3775 [Steve Henson]
3776
3777 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
3778 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
3779 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
3780 [Steve Henson]
3781
3782 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
3783 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
3784
3785 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
3786 [Steve Henson]
3787
3788 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
3789 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
3790 [Steve Henson]
3791
3792 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
3793 [Steve Henson]
3794
3795 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
3796 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
3797 [Steve Henson]
3798
3799 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
3800 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
3801 [Steve Henson]
3802
3803 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
3804 [Steve Henson]
3805
3806 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
3807 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
3808 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
3809 [Steve Henson]
3810
3811 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3812 [Steve Henson]
3813
3814 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3815 [Steve Henson]
3816
3817 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
3818 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
3819 [Steve Henson]
3820
3821 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
3822 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
3823 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
3824 [Steve Henson]
3825
3826 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
3827 [Steve Henson]
3828
3829 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
3830 and enable MD5.
3831 [Steve Henson]
3832
3833 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
3834 FIPS modules versions.
3835 [Steve Henson]
3836
3837 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
3838 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
3839 until after the certificate request message is received.
3840 [Steve Henson]
3841
3842 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
3843 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
3844 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
3845 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
3846 [Steve Henson]
3847
3848 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
3849 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
3850 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
3851 support yet and no support for client certificates.
3852 [Steve Henson]
3853
3854 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
3855 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
3856 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
3857 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
3858 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
3859 and version checking.
3860 [Steve Henson]
3861
3862 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
3863 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
3864 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
3865 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
3866 [Steve Henson]
3867
3868 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
3869 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
3870 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
3871 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
3872 Ben Laurie]
3873
3874 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
3875 [Steve Henson]
3876
3877 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
3878 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
3879 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3880
3881 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
3882 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
3883 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
3884 [Steve Henson]
3885
3886 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
3887 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
3888
3889 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
3890 a few changes are required:
3891
3892 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
3893 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
3894 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
3895 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
3896 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
3897 [Steve Henson]
3898
3899 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
3900
3901 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
3902 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
3903 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
3904 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
3905 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3906 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
3907 an MMA defence is not necessary.
3908 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
3909 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
3910 [Steve Henson]
3911
3912 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
3913 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
3914 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
3915 [Steve Henson]
3916
3917 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
3918
3919 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
3920 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
3921 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
3922 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
3923 [Antonio Martin]
3924
3925 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
3926
3927 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
3928 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
3929 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
3930 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
3931 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
3932 paper describing this attack can be found at:
3933 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
3934 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3935 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3936 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
3937 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
3938 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
3939 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
3940
3941 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
3942 (CVE-2011-4576)
3943 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3944
3945 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
3946 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
3947 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)

3950 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
3951 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
3952
3953 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
3954 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
3955 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
3956 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3957
3958 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3959 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3960
3961 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
3962 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3963
3964 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
3965 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3966
3967 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
3968 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
3969 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3970
3971 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
3972 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
3973 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
3974
3975 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
3976 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
3977 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
3978 the last update always remained unused).
3979 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3980
3981 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
3982 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
3983
3984 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
3985
3986 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
3987 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
3988 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
3989
3990 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
3991 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
3992 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3993
3994 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
3995 [Bodo Moeller]
3996
3997 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
3998 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
3999 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
4000 [Steve Henson]
4001
4002 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
4003 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
4004
4005 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
4006
4007 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
4008
4009 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
4010
4011 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
4012 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4013
4014 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
4015 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
4016 ambiguous.
4017 [Steve Henson]
4018
4019 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
4020
4021 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
4022 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
4023 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
4024 [Steve Henson]
4025
4026 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
4027 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
4028 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
4029 [Ben Laurie]
4030
4031 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
4032
4033 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
4034 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
4035 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
4036 [Steve Henson]
4037
4038 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
4039 a DLL.
4040 [Steve Henson]
4041
4042 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
4043
4044 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
4045 (CVE-2010-1633)
4046 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
4047
4048 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
4049
4050 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
4051 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
4052 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
4053 [Steve Henson]
4054
4055 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
4056 [Steve Henson]
4057
4058 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
4059 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
4060 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
4061
4062 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
4063 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
4064 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
4065 [Steve Henson]
4066
4067 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
4068 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
4069 [Steve Henson]
4070
4071 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
4072 some responders need this.
4073 [Steve Henson]
4074
4075 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
4076 correctly.
4077 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4078
4079 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
4080 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
4081 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
4082 [Steve Henson]
4083
4084 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
4085 [Steve Henson]
4086
4087 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
4088 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
4089 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
4090 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
4091 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
4092 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
4093 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
4094 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
4095 [Steve Henson]
4096
4097 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
4098 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
4099 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
4100 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4101
4102 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
4103 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
4104
4105 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
4106 be used on C++.
4107 [Steve Henson]
4108
4109 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
4110 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
4111 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
4112 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
4113 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
4114 attempting to work them out.
4115 [Steve Henson]
4116
4117 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
4118 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
4119 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
4120 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
4121 [Steve Henson]
4122
4123 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
4124 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
4125 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
4126 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
4127 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
4128 [Steve Henson]
4129
4130 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
4131 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
4132 you can do:
4133
4134 openssl sha256 foo
4135
4136 as well as:
4137
4138 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
4139
4140 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
4141
4142 [Steve Henson]
4143
4144 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
4145 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4146
4147 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
4148 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
4149
4150 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
4151 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
4152 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
4153 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
4154 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
4155 [Steve Henson]
4156
4157 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
4158 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
4159 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
4160 [Steve Henson]
4161
4162 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
4163 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
4164 [Steve Henson]
4165
4166 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
4167 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
4168
4169 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
4170 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
4171 [Steve Henson]
4172
4173 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
4174 [Ben Laurie]
4175
4176 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
4177 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
4178 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
4179 CONF_VALUE.
4180 [Ben Laurie]
4181
4182 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
4183 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
4184 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
4185 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
4186 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
4187 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
4188 [Steve Henson]
4189
4190 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
4191 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
4192
4193 This work was sponsored by Google.
4194 [Steve Henson]
4195
4196 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
4197 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
4198 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
4199 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
4200 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
4201 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
4202 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
4203 default.
4204
4205 This work was sponsored by Google.
4206 [Steve Henson]
4207
4208 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
4209
4210 This work was sponsored by Google.
4211 [Steve Henson]
4212
4213 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
4214 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
4215 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4216 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
4217
4218 This work was sponsored by Google.
4219 [Steve Henson]
4220
4221 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
4222 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
4223 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
4224 CRL functionality in future.
4225
4226 This work was sponsored by Google.
4227 [Steve Henson]
4228
4229 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
4230
4231 This work was sponsored by Google.
4232 [Steve Henson]
4233
4234 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
4235 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
4236
4237 This work was sponsored by Google.
4238 [Steve Henson]
4239
4240 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
4241 and URI types are currently supported.
4242
4243 This work was sponsored by Google.
4244 [Steve Henson]
4245
4246 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
4247 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
4248 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
4249 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
4250 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
4251 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
4252 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
4253 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
4254
4255 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
4256 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
4257 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
4258
4259 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
4260 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
4261 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
4262 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
4263
4264 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
4265 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
4266 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
4267 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
4268 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4269 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4270 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4271 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4272 of &errno.)
4273 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4274
4275 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4276 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4277 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4278
4279 This work was sponsored by Google.
4280 [Steve Henson]
4281
4282 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4283 [Ben Laurie]
4284
4285 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4286 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4287 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4288 [Ben Laurie]
4289
4290 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4291 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4292 [Nick Mathewson]
4293
4294 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4295 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4296 [Ben Laurie]
4297
4298 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4299 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4300 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4301 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4302 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4303 content types and variants.
4304 [Steve Henson]
4305
4306 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4307 [Steve Henson]
4308
4309 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4310 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4311 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4312 files from the associated perl scripts.
4313 [Steve Henson]
4314
4315 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4316 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4317 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4318
4319 *) s390x assembler pack.
4320 [Andy Polyakov]
4321
4322 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4323 "family."
4324 [Andy Polyakov]
4325
4326 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4327 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4328 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4329 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4330 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4331 to use. For example, specify an option
4332
4333 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4334
4335 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4336 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4337 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4338 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4339 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4340 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4341
4342 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4343 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4344 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4345 return non-zero for success.
4346
4347 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4348 by using
4349
4350 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4351 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4352
4353 where
4354
4355 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4356 void *arg;
4357
4358 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4359 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4360 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4361 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4362 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4363 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4364 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4365 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4366 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4367
4368 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4369 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4370 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4371 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4372 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4373 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4374
4375 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4376 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4377 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4378 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4379 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4380 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4381
4382 [Bodo Moeller]
4383
4384 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4385 MAC.
4386
4387 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4388
4389 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4390 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4391 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4392 supported.
4393
4394 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4395 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4396 SSL_SESSION.
4397
4398 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4399 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4400 with no application modification.
4401
4402 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4403 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4404
4405 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4406 or server extensions to be examined.
4407
4408 This work was sponsored by Google.
4409 [Steve Henson]
4410
4411 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4412 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4413 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4414
4415 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4416 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4417 ciphersuite support.
4418 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4419
4420 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4421 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4422 to output in BER and PEM format.
4423 [Steve Henson]
4424
4425 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4426 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4427 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4428 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4429 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4430 [Steve Henson]
4431
4432 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4433 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4434 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4435 utility.
4436 [Steve Henson]
4437
4438 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4439 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4440 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4441 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4442 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4443 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4444 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4445 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4446 enabled again.
4447
4448 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4449 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4450 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4451 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4452
4453 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4454 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4455 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4456 the default order.
4457 [Bodo Moeller]
4458
4459 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4460 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4461 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4462 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4463 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4464 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4465 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4466 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4467 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4468
4469 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4470 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4471 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4472 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4473 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4474 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4475 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4476 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4477 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4478 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4479 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4480 kinds of kludges.
4481
4482 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4483 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4484 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4485
4486 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4487 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4488 "CAMELLIA256".
4489 [Bodo Moeller]
4490
4491 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4492 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4493 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4494 [Nils Larsch]
4495
4496 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4497 it yet and it is largely untested.
4498 [Steve Henson]
4499
4500 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4501 [Nils Larsch]
4502
4503 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4504 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4505 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4506 [Steve Henson]
4507
4508 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4509 [Andy Polyakov]
4510
4511 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4512 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4513 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4514 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4515 [Steve Henson]
4516
4517 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4518 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4519 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4520 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4521 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4522 [Steve Henson]
4523
4524 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4525 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4526 [Cryptocom]
4527
4528 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4529 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4530 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4531 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4532 [Steve Henson]
4533
4534 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4535 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4536 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4537 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4538 [Steve Henson]
4539
4540 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4541 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4542 [Steve Henson]
4543
4544 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4545 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4546 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4547 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4548 [Steve Henson]
4549
4550 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4551 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4552 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4553 [Steve Henson]
4554
4555 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4556 utility.
4557 [Steve Henson]
4558
4559 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
4560 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
4561 [Steve Henson]
4562
4563 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
4564 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
4565 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
4566 if necessary.
4567 [Steve Henson]
4568
4569 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
4570 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
4571 to free up any added signature OIDs.
4572 [Steve Henson]
4573
4574 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
4575 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
4576 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
4577 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
4578 [Steve Henson]
4579
4580 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
4581 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
4582 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
4583 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
4584 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
4585 the array representation useful in a more general context.
4586 [Douglas Stebila]
4587
4588 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
4589 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
4590 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
4591 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
4592 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
4593
4594 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
4595 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
4596 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
4597 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
4598 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
4599 protocol).
4600
4601 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
4602 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
4603 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
4604 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
4605
4606 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
4607 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
4608 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
4609 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
4610 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
4611
4612 aECDH - ECDH cert
4613 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
4614 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
4615
4616 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
4617 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
4618
4619 [Bodo Moeller]
4620
4621 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
4622 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
4623 [Steve Henson]
4624
4625 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
4626 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
4627 [Steve Henson]
4628
4629 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
4630 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
4631 functional reference processing.
4632 [Steve Henson]
4633
4634 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
4635 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
4636 process.
4637 [Steve Henson]
4638
4639 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
4640 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
4641 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
4642 [Steve Henson]
4643
4644 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
4645 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
4646 application to support multiple signers.
4647 [Steve Henson]
4648
4649 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
4650 digest MAC.
4651 [Steve Henson]
4652
4653 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
4654 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
4655 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
4656 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
4657 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
4658 [Steve Henson]
4659
4660 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
4661 new API.
4662 [Steve Henson]
4663
4664 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
4665 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
4666 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
4667 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
4668 a no op.
4669 [Steve Henson]
4670
4671 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
4672 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
4673 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
4674 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
4675 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
4676 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
4677 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
4678 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
4679 [Steve Henson]
4680
4681 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
4682 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
4683 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
4684 between digests and public key types.
4685 [Steve Henson]
4686
4687 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
4688 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
4689 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
4690 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
4691 [Steve Henson]
4692
4693 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
4694 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
4695 key ASN1 method.
4696 [Steve Henson]
4697
4698 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
4699 [Steve Henson]
4700
4701 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
4702 pkeyutl.
4703 [Steve Henson]
4704
4705 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
4706 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
4707 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
4708 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
4709 pkey, genpkey.
4710 [Steve Henson]
4711
4712 *) BeOS support.
4713 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4714
4715 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
4716 manual pages.
4717 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4718
4719 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
4720 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
4721 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
4722 functionality for RSA.
4723 [Steve Henson]
4724
4725 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
4726 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
4727 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
4728 [Steve Henson]
4729
4730 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
4731 key API, doesn't do much yet.
4732 [Steve Henson]
4733
4734 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
4735 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
4736 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
4737 [Steve Henson]
4738
4739 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
4740 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4741 [Douglas Stebila]
4742
4743 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
4744 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
4745 [Steve Henson]
4746
4747 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
4748 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
4749 type.
4750 [Steve Henson]
4751
4752 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
4753 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
4754 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
4755 structure.
4756 [Steve Henson]
4757
4758 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
4759 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
4760 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
4761 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
4762 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
4763 of public and private key structures.
4764 [Steve Henson]
4765
4766 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
4767 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4768 [Douglas Stebila]
4769
4770 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
4771 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
4772 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
4773
4774 New ciphersuites:
4775 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
4776 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
4777
4778 New functions:
4779 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
4780 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
4781 SSL_get_psk_identity
4782 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
4783
4784 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
4785
4786 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
4787 and response verification functionality.
4788 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
4789
4790 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4791 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4792 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4793 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4794 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4795 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4796 server_name extension.
4797
4798 New functions (subject to change):
4799
4800 SSL_get_servername()
4801 SSL_get_servername_type()
4802 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4803
4804 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4805
4806 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4807 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4808 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4809 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4810 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4811
4812 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4813
4814 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4815 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4816 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4817 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4818 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4819 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4820 option.
4821
4822 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
4823
4824 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
4825 [Andy Polyakov]
4826
4827 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
4828 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
4829 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
4830 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
4831 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
4832 [Andy Polyakov]
4833
4834 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
4835 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
4836 macro.
4837 [Bodo Moeller]
4838
4839 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
4840 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
4841 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
4842 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
4843 [Andy Polyakov]
4844
4845 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
4846 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
4847 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
4848 using the maximum available value.
4849 [Steve Henson]
4850
4851 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
4852 in addition to the text details.
4853 [Bodo Moeller]
4854
4855 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
4856 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
4857 handle several customised structures at all.
4858 [Steve Henson]
4859
4860 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
4861 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
4862 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
4863 [Steve Henson]
4864
4865 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
4866 [Steve Henson]
4867
4868 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
4869 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
4870 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
4871 [Steve Henson]
4872
4873 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
4874 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
4875 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
4876 [Nils Larsch]
4877
4878 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
4879 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
4880 all fields.
4881 [Steve Henson]
4882
4883 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
4884 [Steve Henson]
4885
4886 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
4887 [NTT]
4888
4889 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
4890
4891 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
4892 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
4893 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
4894 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
4895 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
4896 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
4897 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
4898 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
4899
4900 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
4901 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
4902 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
4903
4904 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
4905
4906 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
4907 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
4908
4909 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
4910 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
4911 [Bodo Moeller]
4912
4913 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
4914 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
4915 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
4916 [Steve Henson]
4917
4918 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
4919 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
4920 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
4921 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
4922 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
4923 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
4924 [Steve Henson]
4925
4926 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
4927 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
4928 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
4929 [Steve Henson]
4930
4931 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
4932 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
4933 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
4934 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
4935 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
4936 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
4937 CVE-2009-4355.
4938 [Steve Henson]
4939
4940 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
4941 change when encrypting or decrypting.
4942 [Bodo Moeller]
4943
4944 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
4945 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
4946 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
4947 [Steve Henson]
4948
4949 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
4950 [Steve Henson]
4951
4952 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
4953 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
4954 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
4955 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
4956 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
4957 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
4958 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
4959 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
4960 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
4961 [Steve Henson]
4962
4963 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
4964 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
4965 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
4966 [Steve Henson]
4967
4968 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
4969 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
4970 [Steve Henson]
4971
4972 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
4973 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
4974 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
4975 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
4976 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
4977 know what you are doing.
4978 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
4979
4980 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
4981 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
4982 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
4983 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
4984 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
4985 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
4986 the handshake.
4987 [Steve Henson]
4988
4989 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
4990 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
4991 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
4992 correctly.
4993 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4994
4995 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
4996 warnings in other configurations.
4997 [Steve Henson]
4998
4999 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
5000 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
5001 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
5002 systems need.
5003 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
5004
5005 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
5006 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
5007 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
5008
5009 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
5010 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
5011 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
5012 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
5013 [Steve Henson]
5014
5015 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
5016 and restored.
5017 [Steve Henson]
5018
5019 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
5020 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
5021 clash.
5022 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
5023
5024 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
5025 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
5026 other than a simple chain.
5027 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
5028
5029 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
5030 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
5031 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
5032 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
5033 [Steve Henson]
5034
5035 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
5036 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
5037 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
5038 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
5039 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
5040 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
5041 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
5042 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
5043 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5044
5045 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
5046 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
5047 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
5048 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
5049 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
5050 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
5051 (CVE-2009-1377)
5052 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5053
5054 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
5055 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
5056 [Daniel Mentz]
5057
5058 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
5059 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
5060
5061 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
5062 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
5063
5064 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
5065
5066 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
5067 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
5068 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
5069 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
5070 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
5071 you're doing.
5072 [Ben Laurie]
5073
5074 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
5075
5076 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
5077 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
5078 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
5079 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
5080
5081 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
5082 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
5083 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
5084 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5085
5086 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
5087 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
5088 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
5089 [Steve Henson]
5090
5091 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
5092 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
5093 level.
5094 [Steve Henson]
5095
5096 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
5097 to handle some structures.
5098 [Steve Henson]
5099
5100 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
5101 for a '\n'
5102 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
5103
5104 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
5105 [Matthieu Herrb]
5106
5107 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
5108 [Steve Henson]
5109
5110 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
5111 [Steve Henson]
5112
5113 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
5114 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
5115 chosen compiler.
5116 [Ben Laurie]
5117
5118 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
5119
5120 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
5121 (CVE-2008-5077).
5122 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
5123
5124 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
5125 [Ben Laurie]
5126
5127 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
5128 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
5129 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
5130 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
5131
5132 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
5133 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
5134
5135 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
5136 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
5137 [Bodo Moeller]
5138
5139 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
5140 s_client and s_server.
5141 [Ben Laurie]
5142
5143 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
5144 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
5145
5146 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
5147 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
5148
5149 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
5150 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
5151 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
5152 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
5153 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
5154 [Bodo Moeller]
5155
5156 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
5157
5158 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
5159 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
5160 [PR #1679]
5161
5162 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
5163 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
5164 [Nagendra Modadugu]
5165
5166 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
5167 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
5168 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
5169 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
5170
5171 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
5172 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
5173
5174 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
5175
5176 *) Various precautionary measures:
5177
5178 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
5179
5180 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
5181 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
5182 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
5183
5184 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
5185 outside the expected range.
5186
5187 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
5188 builds.
5189
5190 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
5191
5192 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
5193 the load fails. Useful for distros.
5194 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
5195
5196 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
5197 [Steve Henson]
5198
5199 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
5200 [Huang Ying]
5201
5202 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
5203
5204 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5205 [Steve Henson]
5206
5207 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
5208 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
5209 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
5210
5211 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5212 [Steve Henson]
5213
5214 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
5215 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
5216 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
5217 files.
5218 [Steve Henson]
5219
5220 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
5221
5222 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
5223 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
5224 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
5225 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
5226
5227 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
5228 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
5229 [Joe Orton]
5230
5231 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
5232
5233 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
5234 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
5235 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
5236
5237 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
5238
5239 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
5240 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
5241 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
5242 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
5243 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5244
5245 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
5246 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
5247 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
5248 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
5249 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
5250 invalid read after the end of 'db').
5251 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5252
5253 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
5254
5255 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
5256 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
5257 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
5258 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
5259 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
5260
5261 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
5262 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
5263
5264 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
5265 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
5266 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
5267 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
5268 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5269
5270 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5271
5272 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5273 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5274 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5275 sets may exist with different names.
5276 [Steve Henson]
5277
5278 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5279 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5280 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5281 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5282 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5283 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5284 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5285 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5286 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5287 implementation.
5288 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5289
5290 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5291 implementation in the following ways:
5292
5293 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5294 hard coded.
5295
5296 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5297 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5298 ignored for embedded content.
5299
5300 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5301 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5302 [Steve Henson]
5303
5304 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5305 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5306 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5307 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5308
5309 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5310 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5311 [Steve Henson]
5312
5313 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5314 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5315 [Steve Henson]
5316
5317 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5318 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5319 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5320 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5321 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5322 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5323 data.
5324 [Steve Henson]
5325
5326 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5327 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5328 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5329
5330 *) Netware support:
5331
5332 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5333 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5334 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5335 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5336 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5337 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5338 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5339 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5340 platform
5341 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5342 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5343 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5344 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5345 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5346 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5347 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5348
5349 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5350 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5351 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5352 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5353 to s_client and s_server.
5354 [Steve Henson]
5355
5356 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5357
5358 *) Fix various bugs:
5359 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5360 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5361 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5362 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5363 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5364
5365 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5366
5367 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5368 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5369 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5370 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5371 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5372 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5373 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5374 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5375 [Andy Polyakov]
5376
5377 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5378 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5379 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5380 Steve Henson]
5381
5382 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5383 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5384 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5385 supported.
5386
5387 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5388 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5389 SSL_SESSION.
5390
5391 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5392 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5393 with no application modification.
5394
5395 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5396 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5397
5398 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5399 or server extensions to be examined.
5400
5401 This work was sponsored by Google.
5402 [Steve Henson]
5403
5404 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5405 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5406 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5407 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5408 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5409 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5410 server_name extension.
5411
5412 New functions (subject to change):
5413
5414 SSL_get_servername()
5415 SSL_get_servername_type()
5416 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5417
5418 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5419
5420 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5421 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5422 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5423 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5424 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5425
5426 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5427
5428 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5429 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5430 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5431 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5432 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5433 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5434 option.
5435
5436 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5437
5438 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5439 [Steve Henson]
5440
5441 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5442 [Andy Polyakov]
5443
5444 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5445 (which previously caused an internal error).
5446 [Bodo Moeller]
5447
5448 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5449 [Ben Laurie]
5450
5451 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5452 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5453
5454 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5455 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5456 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5457
5458 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5459 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5460 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5461 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5462
5463 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5464 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5465 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5466 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5467
5468 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5469 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5470 information. For detailed background information, see
5471 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5472 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5473 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5474 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5475 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5476 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5477 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5478 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5479 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5480 remove a conditional branch.
5481
5482 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5483 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5484 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5485 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5486 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5487 remains as a deprecated alias.
5488
5489 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5490 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5491 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5492 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5493
5494 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5495 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5496 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5497 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5498 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5499 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5500 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5501 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5502
5503 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5504
5505 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5506 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5507 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5508 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5509 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5510 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5511 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5512 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5513 in a different context.
5514 [Bodo Moeller]
5515
5516 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5517 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5518 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5519 [Bodo Moeller]
5520
5521 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5522 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5523 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5524
5525 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5526
5527 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5528 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5529 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5530 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5531 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5532 [Victor Duchovni]
5533
5534 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5535 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5536 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5537 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5538 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5539 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5540 [Bodo Moeller]
5541
5542 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5543 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5544 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5545 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5546 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5547 [Bodo Moeller]
5548
5549 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5550 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5551
5552 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5553 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5554 Improve header file function name parsing.
5555 [Steve Henson]
5556
5557 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5558 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
5559 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
5560
5561 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
5562
5563 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5564 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5565 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5566
5567 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5568 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5569
5570 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5571 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5572
5573 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5574 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5575 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5576
5577 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
5578 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
5579 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
5580 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
5581 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
5582 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
5583 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
5584 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
5585 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
5586
5587 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
5588 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
5589 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
5590 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
5591 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
5592
5593 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
5594 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
5595 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
5596 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
5597 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
5598 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
5599 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
5600 multiple values to extend the available space.
5601
5602 [Bodo Moeller]
5603
5604 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
5605
5606 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5607 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5608
5609 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
5610 [Ben Laurie]
5611
5612 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5613 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5614 undesirable limitations.
5615 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5616
5617 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
5618 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
5619 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
5620 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
5621 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
5622 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
5623 to avoid potential handshake problems.
5624 [Bodo Moeller]
5625
5626 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5627
5628 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5629 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5630 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5631
5632 The latter two were purportedly from
5633 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5634 appear there.
5635
5636 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
5637 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5638 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5639 [Bodo Moeller]
5640
5641 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5642 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5643 [Bodo Moeller]
5644
5645 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
5646 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
5647 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
5648 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
5649
5650 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5651 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5652 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
5653 [NTT]
5654
5655 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
5656 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
5657 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
5658 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
5659 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
5660 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
5661 [Steve Henson]
5662
5663 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
5664
5665 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
5666 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
5667 [Steve Henson]
5668
5669 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
5670 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
5671
5672 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5673 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
5674 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
5675 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
5676 [Douglas Stebila]
5677
5678 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
5679 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
5680 [Steve Henson]
5681
5682 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
5683 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
5684 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
5685 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
5686 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
5687 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
5688 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
5689 can't be loaded.
5690 [Steve Henson]
5691
5692 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
5693 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
5694 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
5695 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
5696 [Steve Henson]
5697
5698 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
5699 under VC++ build system.
5700 [Steve Henson]
5701
5702 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
5703 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
5704 [Richard Levitte]
5705
5706 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
5707
5708 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5709 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5710 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5711 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5712 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5713
5714 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5715 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5716 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5717
5718 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
5719 [Steve Henson]
5720
5721 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
5722 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5723 [Nils Larsch]
5724
5725 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
5726 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
5727
5728 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
5729 [Nick Mathewson]
5730
5731 *) Extended Windows CE support.
5732 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
5733
5734 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
5735 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5736 [Steve Henson]
5737
5738 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
5739 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
5740 smime utility.
5741 [Steve Henson]
5742
5743 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
5744
5745 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5746 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5747
5748 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
5749 [Richard Levitte]
5750
5751 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
5752 key into the same file any more.
5753 [Richard Levitte]
5754
5755 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
5756 [Andy Polyakov]
5757
5758 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
5759 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
5760
5761 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
5762 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
5763 [Richard Levitte]
5764
5765 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
5766 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
5767 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
5768 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
5769 this only applies when building 'shared'.
5770 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
5771
5772 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
5773 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
5774 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
5775 [Steve Henson]
5776
5777 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
5778 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
5779 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
5780 - add new function for parameter creation
5781 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
5782 BN_BLINDING parameters
5783 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
5784 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
5785 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
5786 threads.
5787 [Nils Larsch]
5788
5789 *) Add support for DTLS.
5790 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
5791
5792 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
5793 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
5794 [Walter Goulet]
5795
5796 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
5797 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
5798 [Nils Larsch]
5799
5800 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
5801 the apps/openssl applications.
5802 [Nils Larsch]
5803
5804 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
5805 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
5806 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
5807 [Ben Laurie]
5808
5809 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
5810 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
5811
5812 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
5813 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
5814
5815 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
5816 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
5817 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
5818 avoid this algorithm.)
5819
5820 [Bodo Moeller]
5821
5822 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
5823 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
5824 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
5825 [Richard Levitte]
5826
5827 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
5828 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
5829 [Andy Polyakov]
5830
5831 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
5832 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
5833 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
5834 pod file:
5835
5836 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
5837
5838 The blank line is mandatory.
5839
5840 [Steve Henson]
5841
5842 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
5843 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
5844 sources.
5845 [Steve Henson]
5846
5847 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
5848 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
5849
5850 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
5851 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
5852 to support policy checking and print out.
5853 [Steve Henson]
5854
5855 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
5856 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
5857 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
5858 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
5859
5860 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
5861 [Geoff Thorpe]
5862
5863 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
5864 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
5865
5866 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
5867 implementation contributed by IBM.
5868 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
5869
5870 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
5871 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
5872 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
5873 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
5874
5875 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
5876 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
5877
5878 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
5879 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
5880 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
5881 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
5882 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
5883 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
5884 [Steve Henson]
5885
5886 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
5887 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
5888 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
5889 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
5890 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
5891 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
5892 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
5893 [Geoff Thorpe]
5894
5895 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
5896 [Steve Henson]
5897
5898 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
5899 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
5900 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
5901 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
5902 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
5903 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
5904 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
5905 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
5906 [Steve Henson]
5907
5908 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
5909 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
5910 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
5911 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
5912 [Steve Henson]
5913
5914 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
5915 syntax:
5916
5917 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
5918 [Steve Henson]
5919
5920 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
5921 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
5922 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
5923 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
5924 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
5925 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
5926 BN_CTX's "bundling".
5927 [Geoff Thorpe]
5928
5929 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
5930 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
5931 [Geoff Thorpe]
5932
5933 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
5934 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
5935 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
5936 [Steve Henson]
5937
5938 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
5939 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
5940 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
5941 below).
5942 [Geoff Thorpe]
5943
5944 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
5945 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
5946 [Richard Levitte]
5947
5948 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
5949 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
5950 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
5951 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
5952 [Geoff Thorpe]
5953
5954 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
5955 initialised value as BN_new().
5956 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
5957
5958 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
5959 [Steve Henson]
5960
5961 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
5962 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
5963 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
5964 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
5965 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
5966 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
5967 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
5968 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
5969 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
5970 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
5971 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
5972 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
5973 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
5974 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
5975 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
5976
5977 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
5978 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
5979 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
5980 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
5981 [Geoff Thorpe]
5982
5983 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
5984 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
5985 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
5986 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
5987 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
5988 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
5989 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
5990 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
5991 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
5992 [Geoff Thorpe]
5993
5994 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
5995 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
5996 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
5997 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
5998 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
5999 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
6000 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
6001 [Geoff Thorpe]
6002
6003 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
6004 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
6005 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
6006 these have been updated also.
6007 [Geoff Thorpe]
6008
6009 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
6010 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
6011 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
6012 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
6013 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
6014 functions.
6015 [Steve Henson]
6016
6017 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
6018 structure of type "other".
6019 [Steve Henson]
6020
6021 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
6022 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
6023 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
6024 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
6025 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
6026 situation in the script.
6027 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6028
6029 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
6030 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
6031 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
6032 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
6033 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
6034 used as premaster secret.
6035 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6036
6037 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
6038 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
6039 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6040
6041 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
6042 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
6043
6044 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
6045 control of the error stack.
6046 [Richard Levitte]
6047
6048 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
6049 [Richard Levitte]
6050
6051 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
6052 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
6053 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
6054 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
6055 [Richard Levitte]
6056
6057 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
6058 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
6059 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
6060 [Richard Levitte]
6061
6062 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
6063 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
6064 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
6065 a memory area.
6066 [Richard Levitte]
6067
6068 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
6069 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
6070 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
6071 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
6072 [Richard Levitte]
6073
6074 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
6075 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
6076 the following flags are defined:
6077
6078 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
6079 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6080 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
6081 number.
6082
6083 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
6084 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6085 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
6086 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
6087 returns zero.
6088 [Richard Levitte]
6089
6090 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
6091 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
6092 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
6093 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
6094 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
6095 [Richard Levitte]
6096
6097 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
6098 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
6099 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
6100 [Richard Levitte]
6101
6102 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6103 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6104 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6105 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6106 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6107 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6108 [Richard Levitte]
6109
6110 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
6111 req and dirName.
6112 [Steve Henson]
6113
6114 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
6115 [Steve Henson]
6116
6117 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
6118 [Steve Henson]
6119
6120 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
6121 [Steve Henson]
6122
6123 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
6124 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
6125 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
6126 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
6127 default implementation more easily.
6128 [Geoff Thorpe]
6129
6130 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
6131 in config files.
6132 [Steve Henson]
6133
6134 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
6135 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
6136 [Richard Levitte]
6137
6138 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
6139 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
6140 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
6141 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
6142
6143 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
6144 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
6145 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
6146 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
6147 [Steve Henson]
6148
6149 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
6150 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
6151 to do it.
6152 [Richard Levitte]
6153
6154 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
6155 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
6156 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
6157 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
6158 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
6159 scalar * generator).
6160 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
6161
6162 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
6163 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
6164 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
6165 correctly.
6166 [Steve Henson]
6167
6168 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
6169 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
6170 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
6171 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
6172 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
6173 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
6174 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
6175 linker additions, eg;
6176 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
6177 [Geoff Thorpe]
6178
6179 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
6180 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
6181 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
6182 [Geoff Thorpe]
6183
6184 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6185 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6186 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
6187 via PR#459)
6188 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6189
6190 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
6191 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
6192 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
6193 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
6194 [Geoff Thorpe]
6195
6196 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
6197 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
6198 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
6199 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
6200 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
6201 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
6202 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
6203 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
6204 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
6205 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
6206
6207 Example for using the new callback interface:
6208
6209 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
6210 void *my_arg = ...;
6211 BN_GENCB my_cb;
6212
6213 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
6214
6215 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
6216 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
6217 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
6218 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
6219 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
6220 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
6221 */
6222
6223 [Geoff Thorpe]
6224
6225 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
6226 available to TLS with the number defined in
6227 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
6228 [Richard Levitte]
6229
6230 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
6231 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
6232
6233 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
6234 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6235 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6236 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
6237
6238 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
6239 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
6240
6241 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
6242 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
6243 well.
6244 [Richard Levitte]
6245
6246 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
6247 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
6248 [Richard Levitte]
6249
6250 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
6251 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
6252 and a macro that behave like
6253 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
6254
6255 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
6256 [Nils Larsch]
6257
6258 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
6259 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
6260 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
6261 if applicable.
6262 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6263
6264 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
6265 [Bodo Moeller]
6266
6267 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
6268 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6269 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6270 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6271 directory engines/.
6272 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6273 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6274 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6275 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6276 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6277 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6278 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6279 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6280
6281 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6282 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6283 [Richard Levitte]
6284
6285 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6286 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6287
6288 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6289 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6290 files while avoiding the low level API.
6291
6292 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6293 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6294 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6295 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6296
6297 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6298 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6299 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6300 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6301 instead of the low level API.
6302 [Steve Henson]
6303
6304 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6305 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6306 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6307 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6308 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6309 PKCS#7 code.
6310
6311 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6312 down to the template encoder.
6313 [Steve Henson]
6314
6315 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6316 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6317 [Bodo Moeller]
6318
6319 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6320 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6321 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6322 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6323
6324 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6325 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6326
6327 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6328 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6329
6330 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6331 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6332 [Bodo Moeller]
6333
6334 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6335 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6336 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6337 [Bodo Moeller]
6338
6339 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6340 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6341
6342 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6343 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6344
6345 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6346 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6347 New EC_METHOD:
6348
6349 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6350
6351 New API functions:
6352
6353 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6354 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6355 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6356 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6357 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6358 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6359
6360 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6361 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6362 enable it).
6363
6364 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6365 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6366 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6367 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6368 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6369 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6370 various internal method names.)
6371
6372 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6373 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6374
6375 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6376 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6377
6378 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6379 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6380
6381 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6382 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6383 methods are undefined.
6384
6385 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6386 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6387
6388 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6389 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6390 length of the modulus.
6391
6392 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6393 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6394
6395 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6396 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6397
6398 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6399 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6400
6401 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6402 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6403 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6404
6405 BN_GF2m_add
6406 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
6407 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
6408 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
6409 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
6410 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
6411 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
6412 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
6413 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
6414 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
6415
6416 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6417 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6418
6419 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6420 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6421 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6422 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6423 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6424 where
6425 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6426 This applies to the following functions:
6427
6428 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6429 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6430 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6431 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6432 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6433 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6434 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6435 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6436 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6437 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6438
6439 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6440
6441 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6442 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6443
6444 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6445
6446 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6447 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6448 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6449 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6450 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6451
6452 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6453 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6454
6455 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6456 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6457 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6458
6459 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6460 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6461
6462 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6463 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6464 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6465 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6466 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6467
6468 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6469 functions
6470 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6471 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6472 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6473 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6474 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6475 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6476 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6477 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6478 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6479 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6480 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6481 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6482
6483 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6484 functions
6485 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6486 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6487 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6488 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6489 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6490
6491 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6492 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6493 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6494 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6495
6496 *) Add functions
6497 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6498 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6499 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6500 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6501 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6502 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6503 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6504
6505 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6506 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6507 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6508 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6509 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6510 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6511 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6512 adding different types of curves.
6513 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6514
6515 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6516 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6517 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6518 [Bodo Moeller]
6519
6520 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6521 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6522
6523 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6524 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6525 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6526 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6527
6528 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6529
6530 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6531 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6532
6533 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6534 library. Most notably,
6535 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6536 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6537 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6538 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6539 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6540 extracted before the specific public key;
6541 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6542 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6543
6544 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6545 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6546 function
6547 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6548 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6549 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6550 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6551 accessed via
6552 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6553 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6554 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6555
6556 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6557 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6558 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6559 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6560 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6561 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6562 differing sizes.
6563 [Richard Levitte]
6564
6565 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
6566
6567 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
6568 sensitive data.
6569 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
6570
6571 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
6572 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
6573 authentication-only ciphersuites.
6574 [Bodo Moeller]
6575
6576 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
6577 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
6578 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
6579 [Victor Duchovni]
6580
6581 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
6582 [Steve Henson]
6583
6584 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
6585 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
6586 [Steve Henson]
6587
6588 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
6589 run algorithm test programs.
6590 [Steve Henson]
6591
6592 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
6593 [Steve Henson]
6594
6595 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
6596 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
6597 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
6598 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
6599 message has informed the client about his choice.)
6600 [Bodo Moeller]
6601
6602 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
6603 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
6604 [Steve Henson]
6605
6606 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
6607
6608 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6609 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6610 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6611
6612 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
6613 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
6614
6615 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
6616 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6617
6618 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
6619 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
6620 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6621
6622 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
6623 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
6624 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
6625 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
6626 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
6627 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
6628 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
6629 [Bodo Moeller]
6630
6631 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
6632
6633 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
6634 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
6635
6636 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6637 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6638 undesirable limitations.
6639 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6640
6641 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6642
6643 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6644 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6645 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6646
6647 The latter two were purportedly from
6648 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6649 appear there.
6650
6651 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6652 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6653 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6654 [Bodo Moeller]
6655
6656 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6657 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6658 [Bodo Moeller]
6659
6660 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
6661
6662 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
6663 module in FIPS mode.
6664 [Steve Henson]
6665
6666 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
6667 [Steve Henson]
6668
6669 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
6670 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
6671 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
6672 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
6673 [Steve Henson]
6674
6675 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
6676
6677 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
6678 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
6679 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
6680 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
6681 the difference induced by this change.
6682 [Andy Polyakov]
6683
6684 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
6685
6686 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6687 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6688 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6689 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6690 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6691
6692 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6693 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6694 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6695
6696 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
6697 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
6698 [Steve Henson]
6699
6700 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
6701 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
6702 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
6703 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
6704 biased k.)
6705 [Bodo Moeller]
6706
6707 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
6708 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
6709 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
6710 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
6711 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
6712
6713 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
6714 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
6715 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
6716 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
6717 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
6718 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
6719
6720 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
6721
6722 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
6723 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
6724 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
6725 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
6726 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
6727 [Bodo Moeller]
6728
6729 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
6730 clients need.
6731 [Steve Henson]
6732
6733 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
6734 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
6735 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
6736 [Steve Henson]
6737
6738 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
6739 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
6740 structures constant.
6741 [Steve Henson]
6742
6743 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
6744
6745 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6746 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6747
6748 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
6749 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
6750 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
6751 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
6752 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
6753 some needed definitions.
6754 [Steve Henson]
6755
6756 *) Undo Cygwin change.
6757 [Ulf Möller]
6758
6759 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
6760 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
6761 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
6762 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
6763 [Richard Levitte]
6764
6765 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
6766
6767 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
6768 server and client random values. Previously
6769 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
6770 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
6771
6772 This change has negligible security impact because:
6773
6774 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
6775 data.
6776
6777 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
6778 handshake.
6779
6780 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
6781 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
6782 values.
6783
6784 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
6785 to our attention.
6786
6787 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
6788
6789 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
6790 [Ulf Möller]
6791
6792 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
6793 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
6794 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
6795
6796 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
6797 [Steve Henson]
6798
6799 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
6800 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
6801 [Andy Polyakov]
6802
6803 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
6804 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
6805 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
6806
6807 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
6808 [Steve Henson]
6809
6810 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
6811 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
6812 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
6813 certificates.
6814 [Steve Henson]
6815
6816 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
6817 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
6818 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
6819 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
6820
6821 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
6822 has chosen to ignore this fault)
6823 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
6824 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
6825 been given)
6826 [Richard Levitte]
6827
6828 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
6829
6830 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
6831 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
6832 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
6833 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
6834 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
6835 [Steve Henson]
6836
6837 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
6838 [Steve Henson]
6839
6840 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
6841 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
6842
6843 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
6844 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
6845 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
6846 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
6847 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
6848 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
6849 rather than being initialized to 1.
6850 [Steve Henson]
6851
6852 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
6853
6854 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6855 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6856 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6857
6858 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
6859 (CVE-2004-0112)
6860 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6861
6862 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6863 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6864 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6865 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6866 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6867 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6868 [Richard Levitte]
6869
6870 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
6871 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
6872 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
6873 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
6874 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
6875 for these cases.
6876 [Steve Henson]
6877
6878 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
6879 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
6880 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
6881 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
6882 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
6883 [Steve Henson]
6884
6885 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
6886 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
6887 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
6888 < 0.9.7.
6889 [Steve Henson]
6890
6891 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
6892 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6893
6894 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
6895 [Steve Henson]
6896
6897 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
6898
6899 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6900
6901 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6902 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6903
6904 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
6905
6906 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6907 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6908
6909 [Steve Henson]
6910
6911 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
6912 exiting on the first error in a request.
6913 [Steve Henson]
6914
6915 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6916 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6917 specifications.
6918 [Steve Henson]
6919
6920 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6921 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6922 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6923 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6924
6925 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6926 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6927 [Richard Levitte]
6928
6929 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
6930 blocks during encryption.
6931 [Richard Levitte]
6932
6933 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
6934 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
6935 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
6936 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
6937 certain size.
6938 [Steve Henson]
6939
6940 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
6941 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
6942 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
6943 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
6944 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
6945 parser.
6946 [Steve Henson]
6947
6948 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
6949
6950 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6951 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6952 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6953 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6954 [Bodo Moeller]
6955
6956 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6957 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6958 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6959 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6960 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6961
6962 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6963 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6964 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6965 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6966 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6967 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6968 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6969 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6970 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6971 [Bodo Moeller]
6972
6973 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
6974 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
6975 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
6976 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
6977 [Geoff Thorpe]
6978
6979 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
6980 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
6981 [Ulf Moeller]
6982
6983 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
6984
6985 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6986 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
6987 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6988 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6989 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6990
6991 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6992 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6993 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6994
6995 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
6996 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
6997 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
6998 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
6999 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
7000
7001 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
7002 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
7003 used by default when no-err is given.
7004 [Richard Levitte]
7005
7006 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
7007 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
7008
7009 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
7010 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
7011 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
7012 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
7013 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
7014
7015 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
7016 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
7017 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
7018 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
7019
7020 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
7021
7022 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
7023
7024 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
7025
7026 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
7027 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
7028 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
7029 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
7030 root is omitted).
7031 [Steve Henson]
7032
7033 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
7034 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7035
7036 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
7037 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
7038 [Steve Henson]
7039
7040 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
7041 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
7042 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
7043 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
7044 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7045
7046 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
7047 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
7048 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
7049 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
7050 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
7051 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7052 followup to PR #377.
7053 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7054
7055 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
7056 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
7057 [Andy Polyakov]
7058
7059 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
7060 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
7061 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
7062 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
7063
7064 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
7065
7066 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
7067 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
7068
7069 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
7070 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
7071 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
7072 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
7073 client and server.
7074 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7075 PR #377.
7076 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7077
7078 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
7079 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
7080 removed entirely.
7081 [Richard Levitte]
7082
7083 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
7084 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
7085 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
7086 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
7087 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
7088 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
7089 of libcrypto.
7090 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
7091 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
7092 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
7093 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
7094 have to be made anyway).
7095 [Richard Levitte]
7096
7097 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
7098 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
7099 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
7100 [Steve Henson]
7101
7102 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
7103 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
7104 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
7105 [Richard Levitte]
7106
7107 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
7108 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
7109 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7110
7111 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
7112 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
7113 edit numbers of the version.
7114 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7115
7116 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
7117 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
7118 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
7119
7120 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
7121 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7122
7123 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7124 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7125 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7126
7127 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
7128 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7129
7130 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
7131 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7132
7133 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
7134 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7135
7136 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
7137 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7138
7139 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
7140 overflows.
7141 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7142
7143 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
7144 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
7145 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7146
7147 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
7148 representations in a platform independent manner.
7149 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7150
7151 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7152 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7153 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7154
7155 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
7156 indents.
7157 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7158
7159 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
7160 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7161
7162 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
7163 full. Fixed.
7164 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7165
7166 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
7167 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
7168 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7169
7170 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
7171 unconditionally).
7172 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7173
7174 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
7175 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7176
7177 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
7178 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7179
7180 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
7181 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7182
7183 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
7184 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7185
7186 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
7187 CBCParameter.
7188 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7189
7190 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
7191 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7192
7193 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
7194 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7195
7196 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
7197 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
7198 exploitable.
7199 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7200
7201 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
7202 the 0.9.6 release series:
7203
7204 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7205 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
7206 (CVE-2002-0657)
7207 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7208
7209 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
7210 [Richard Levitte]
7211
7212 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
7213 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
7214
7215 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
7216 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
7217
7218 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
7219 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
7220 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
7221 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
7222
7223 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
7224 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
7225 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
7226
7227 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
7228 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
7229 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
7230 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7231
7232 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
7233 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
7234 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
7235 some local tweaks:
7236
7237 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
7238 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
7239 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
7240 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7241 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7242 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
7243 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
7244 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
7245 done
7246
7247 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
7248 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
7249 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
7250 [Richard Levitte]
7251
7252 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
7253 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
7254 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
7255 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
7256 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
7257
7258 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
7259 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
7260
7261 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
7262 error in AES-CFB decryption.
7263 [Richard Levitte]
7264
7265 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
7266 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
7267 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
7268 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7269 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7270 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7271 [Steve Henson]
7272
7273 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7274 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7275 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7276 [Steve Henson]
7277
7278 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7279 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7280 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7281
7282 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7283 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7284 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7285 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7286 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7287 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7288 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7289 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7290
7291 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7292 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7293 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7294 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7295 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7296 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7297 [Steve Henson]
7298
7299 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7300 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7301 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7302 declaration has been changed from
7303 int (*cb)()
7304 into
7305 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7306 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7307 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7308 has been changed into
7309 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7310
7311 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7312 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
7313 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
7314
7315 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7316 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7317
7318 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7319 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7320 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7321 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7322 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7323 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7324 always load it have also been added.
7325 [Steve Henson]
7326
7327 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7328 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7329 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7330
7331 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7332
7333 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7334 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7335 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7336
7337 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7338 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7339 command line option can be used to specify an
7340 alternative file.
7341 [Steve Henson]
7342
7343 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7344 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7345 [Steve Henson]
7346
7347 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7348 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7349 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7350 [Steve Henson]
7351
7352 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7353 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7354 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7355 to work with the new engine framework.
7356 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7357
7358 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7359 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7360 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7361 to work with the new engine framework.
7362 [Richard Levitte]
7363
7364 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7365 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7366 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7367
7368 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7369 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7370
7371 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7372 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7373 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7374 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7375 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7376 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7377
7378 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7379 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7380
7381 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7382 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7383
7384 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7385 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7386 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7387 [Ben Laurie]
7388
7389 *) Add new functions
7390 ERR_peek_last_error
7391 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7392 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7393 These are similar to
7394 ERR_peek_error
7395 ERR_peek_error_line
7396 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7397 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7398 still in the error queue.
7399 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7400
7401 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7402 like:
7403 default_algorithms = ALL
7404 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7405 [Steve Henson]
7406
7407 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7408 [Steve Henson]
7409
7410 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7411 [Steve Henson]
7412
7413 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7414 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7415 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7416 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7417
7418 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7419 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7420
7421 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7422 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7423
7424 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7425 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7426 [Bodo Moeller]
7427
7428 *) New functions/macros
7429
7430 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7431 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7432 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7433 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7434
7435 to request calling a callback function
7436
7437 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7438 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7439
7440 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7441 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7442 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7443 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7444 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7445 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7446 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7447 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7448 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7449 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7450
7451 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7452 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7453 [Bodo Moeller]
7454
7455 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7456 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7457 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7458 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7459 the configuration scripts.
7460
7461 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7462 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7463 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7464
7465 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7466 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7467
7468 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7469 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7470 when reusing an existing buffer.
7471 [Bodo Moeller]
7472
7473 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7474 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7475 [Steve Henson]
7476
7477 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7478 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7479 [Ben Laurie]
7480
7481 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7482 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7483 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7484 has the same effect.
7485 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7486
7487 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7488 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7489 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7490 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7491 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7492 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7493 exception.
7494
7495 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7496 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7497 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7498 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7499
7500 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7501 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7502 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7503 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7504
7505 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7506 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7507 won't work.
7508
7509 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7510 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7511 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7512 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7513 default), and then completely removed.
7514 [Richard Levitte]
7515
7516 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7517 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7518 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7519 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7520 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7521 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7522 particular extension is supported.
7523 [Steve Henson]
7524
7525 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7526 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7527 [Steve Henson]
7528
7529 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7530 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7531 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7532 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7533 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7534 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7535 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7536 requires the destination to be valid.
7537
7538 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7539 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7540 [Steve Henson]
7541
7542 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7543 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7544 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7545 [Bodo Moeller]
7546
7547 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7548 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7549
7550 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7551 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7552 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7553 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7554 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7555 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7556 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7557 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7558 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
7559 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
7560 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
7561 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
7562 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
7563 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
7564 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
7565 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
7566 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
7567 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
7568 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
7569 the new code.
7570 [Geoff Thorpe]
7571
7572 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
7573 [Steve Henson]
7574
7575 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
7576 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
7577 become part of libeay.num as well.
7578 [Richard Levitte]
7579
7580 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
7581 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
7582 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
7583 false once a handshake has been completed.
7584 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
7585 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
7586 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
7587 client has followed the request.)
7588 [Bodo Moeller]
7589
7590 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
7591 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
7592 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
7593 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
7594
7595 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
7596 more bits available for options that should not be part of
7597 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
7598 [Bodo Moeller]
7599
7600 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
7601 [Steve Henson]
7602
7603 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
7604 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
7605 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
7606 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7607
7608 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
7609 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7610 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7611
7612 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
7613 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
7614 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
7615 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
7616 [Geoff Thorpe]
7617
7618 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
7619 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
7620 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
7621 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
7622 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
7623 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
7624 [Geoff Thorpe]
7625
7626 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
7627 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
7628 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
7629 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
7630 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
7631 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
7632 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
7633 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
7634 [Geoff Thorpe]
7635
7636 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
7637 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
7638 [Geoff Thorpe]
7639
7640 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
7641 [Ben Laurie]
7642
7643 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
7644 md_data void pointer.
7645 [Ben Laurie]
7646
7647 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
7648 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
7649 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
7650 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
7651 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
7652 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
7653 [Ben Laurie]
7654
7655 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
7656 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
7657 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
7658 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
7659 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
7660 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
7661 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
7662 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
7663 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
7664 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
7665 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
7666 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
7667 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
7668 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
7669 rather than letting it slide.
7670
7671 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
7672 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
7673 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
7674 [Geoff Thorpe]
7675
7676 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
7677 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
7678 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
7679 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
7680 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
7681 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
7682 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
7683 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
7684 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
7685 [Geoff Thorpe]
7686
7687 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
7688 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
7689 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
7690 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
7691 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
7692
7693 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
7694 [Geoff Thorpe]
7695
7696 *) Add EVP test program.
7697 [Ben Laurie]
7698
7699 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
7700 [Ben Laurie]
7701
7702 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
7703 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
7704 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
7705 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
7706 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
7707 [Steve Henson]
7708
7709 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
7710 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
7711 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
7712 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
7713 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
7714 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
7715 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
7716
7717 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
7718 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
7719 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
7720 Usage example:
7721
7722 EVP_MD_CTX md;
7723
7724 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
7725 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
7726 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
7727 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
7728 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
7729
7730 [Ben Laurie]
7731
7732 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
7733 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
7734 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
7735 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
7736 anyway): E.g.,
7737
7738 des_key_schedule ks;
7739
7740 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
7741 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
7742
7743 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
7744 [Ben Laurie]
7745
7746 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
7747 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
7748 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
7749 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
7750 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
7751 functions prevents this.
7752 [Steve Henson]
7753
7754 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
7755 [Ben Laurie]
7756
7757 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
7758 correct _ecb suffix.
7759 [Ben Laurie]
7760
7761 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
7762 revocation information is handled using the text based index
7763 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
7764 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
7765 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
7766 [Steve Henson]
7767
7768 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
7769 [Richard Levitte]
7770
7771 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
7772 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
7773 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
7774 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
7775
7776 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
7777 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
7778
7779 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
7780 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7781 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
7782 via Richard Levitte]
7783
7784 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
7785 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
7786 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
7787 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
7788 [Geoff Thorpe]
7789
7790 *) Speed up EVP routines.
7791 Before:

7806 [Ben Laurie]
7807
7808 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
7809 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
7810
7811 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
7812 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
7813 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
7814 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
7815 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
7816 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
7817 [Steve Henson]
7818
7819 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
7820 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
7821 [Richard Levitte]
7822
7823 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
7824 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
7825 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
7826 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
7827
7828 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
7829 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
7830 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
7831 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
7832 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
7833 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
7834 callback.
7835 [Richard Levitte]
7836
7837 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
7838 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
7839 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
7840 and interrupts/cancellations.
7841 [Richard Levitte]
7842
7843 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
7844 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
7845 [Steve Henson]
7846
7847 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
7848 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
7849 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
7850
7851 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
7852 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
7853 kind of callback.
7854 [Richard Levitte]
7855
7856 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
7857 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
7858 than this minimum value is recommended.
7859 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7860
7861 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
7862 that are easily reachable.
7863 [Richard Levitte]
7864
7865 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
7866 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
7867
7868 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
7869
7870 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
7871 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
7872 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
7873 needed for static libraries under Win32.
7874 [Steve Henson]
7875
7876 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
7877 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
7878 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
7879 [Steve Henson]
7880
7881 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
7882 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
7883 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
7884 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
7885 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
7886 internally such as S/MIME.
7887
7888 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
7889 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
7890 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
7891
7892 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
7893 applications.
7894 [Steve Henson]
7895
7896 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
7897 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
7898 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
7899 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
7900
7901 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7902
7903 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
7904
7905 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
7906 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
7907 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
7908 handling.
7909 [Steve Henson]
7910
7911 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
7912 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
7913 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
7914 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
7915 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
7916 a window system and the like.
7917 [Richard Levitte]
7918
7919 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
7920 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
7921 [Geoff]
7922
7923 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
7924 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
7925 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
7926 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
7927 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
7928 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
7929 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
7930 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
7931 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
7932 ENGINE structure.
7933 [Geoff]
7934
7935 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
7936 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
7937 tag cache.
7938 [Steve Henson]
7939
7940 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
7941 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
7942 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
7943 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
7944 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
7945 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
7946 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
7947 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
7948 [Geoff]
7949
7950 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
7951 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
7952 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
7953 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
7954 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
7955 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
7956 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
7957 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
7958 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
7959 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
7960 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
7961 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
7962 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
7963 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
7964 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
7965 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
7966 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
7967 [Geoff]
7968
7969 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
7970 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
7971 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
7972 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
7973 internal engine_int.h header.
7974 [Geoff]
7975
7976 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
7977 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
7978 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
7979 modify their own ones).
7980 [Geoff]
7981
7982 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
7983 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
7984 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
7985 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
7986 later on via ctrl() commands.
7987 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
7988 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
7989 structural references.
7990 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
7991 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
7992 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
7993 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
7994 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
7995 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
7996 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
7997 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
7998 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
7999 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
8000 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
8001 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
8002 [Geoff]
8003
8004 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
8005 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
8006 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
8007 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
8008 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
8009 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
8010 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
8011 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
8012 [Bodo Moeller]
8013
8014 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
8015 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
8016 [Steve Henson]
8017
8018 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
8019 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
8020 [Steve Henson]
8021
8022 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
8023 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
8024 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
8025 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
8026 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
8027 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
8028 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
8029 [Steve Henson]
8030
8031 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
8032 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
8033 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
8034 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
8035 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
8036
8037 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
8038 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
8039 generator).
8040 [Bodo Moeller]
8041
8042 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
8043
8044 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
8045 operations and provides various method functions that can also
8046 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
8047
8048 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
8049 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
8050
8051 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
8052 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
8053 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
8054
8055 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
8056 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
8057
8058 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
8059 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
8060
8061 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
8062
8063 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
8064 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
8065 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
8066 [Bodo Moeller]
8067
8068 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
8069 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
8070 [Richard Levitte]
8071
8072 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
8073 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
8074 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
8075 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
8076 is 40 of more characters long.
8077 [Steve Henson]
8078
8079 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
8080 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
8081 pointers.
8082 [Steve Henson]
8083
8084 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
8085 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
8086 [Bodo Moeller]
8087
8088 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
8089 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
8090 might.
8091 [Steve Henson]
8092
8093 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
8094
8095 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
8096 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
8097
8098 ASN1 error codes
8099 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
8100 ...
8101 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
8102 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
8103 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
8104 ...
8105 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
8106 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
8107
8108 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
8109 [Bodo Moeller]
8110
8111 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
8112 suffices.
8113 [Bodo Moeller]
8114
8115 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
8116 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
8117 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
8118 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
8119 and
8120 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
8121
8122 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
8123 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
8124
8125 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
8126 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
8127 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
8128 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
8129 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
8130 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
8131
8132 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
8133 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
8134
8135 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
8136 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8137
8138 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
8139 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
8140
8141 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
8142 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
8143 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8144 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
8145
8146 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
8147 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
8148
8149 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
8150 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
8151
8152 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
8153 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
8154 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
8155 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
8156 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
8157 [Richard Levitte]
8158
8159 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
8160 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
8161 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
8162 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
8163 [Steve Henson]
8164
8165 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
8166 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
8167 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
8168 trust settings.
8169 [Steve Henson]
8170
8171 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
8172 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
8173 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
8174 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
8175 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
8176 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
8177 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
8178 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
8179 ocsp utility.
8180 [Steve Henson]
8181
8182 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
8183 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
8184 [Steve Henson]
8185
8186 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
8187 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
8188 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
8189 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
8190 [Steve Henson]
8191
8192 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
8193 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
8194 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
8195 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
8196 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
8197 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
8198 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
8199 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
8200 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
8201 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
8202 [Steve Henson]
8203
8204 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
8205 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
8206 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
8207 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
8208 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
8209 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
8210 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
8211 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8212
8213 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
8214 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
8215 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
8216 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
8217 [Richard Levitte]
8218
8219 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
8220 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
8221 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
8222 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
8223 opensslconf.h.
8224 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
8225 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
8226 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
8227 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
8228 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
8229 what is available.
8230 [Richard Levitte]
8231
8232 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
8233 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
8234 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
8235 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
8236 auto incremented.
8237 [Steve Henson]
8238
8239 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
8240 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
8241 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
8242 [Steve Henson]
8243
8244 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
8245 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
8246 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
8247 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
8248 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
8249 [Steve Henson]
8250
8251 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
8252 [Steve Henson]
8253
8254 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
8255 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
8256 option to ocsp utility.
8257 [Steve Henson]
8258
8259 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
8260 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
8261 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
8262 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
8263 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
8264 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
8265 the request is nonce-less.
8266 [Steve Henson]
8267
8268 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8269 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8270 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8271 [Bodo Moeller]
8272
8273 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8274 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8275 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8276 [Steve Henson]
8277
8278 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8279 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8280 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8281 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8282 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8283 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8284
8285 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8286 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8287 appear to exist.
8288 [Steve Henson]
8289
8290 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8291 additional certificates supplied.
8292 [Steve Henson]
8293
8294 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8295 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8296 signature against.
8297 [Richard Levitte]
8298
8299 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8300 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8301 AES OIDs.
8302
8303 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8304 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8305 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8306 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8307 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8308 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8309 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8310 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8311 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8312
8313 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8314 request to response.
8315 [Steve Henson]
8316
8317 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8318 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8319 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8320 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8321 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8322 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8323 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8324 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8325 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8326 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8327 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8328 [Steve Henson]
8329
8330 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8331 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8332 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8333 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8334 [Steve Henson]
8335
8336 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8337 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8338
8339 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8340 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8341 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8342 [Steve Henson]
8343
8344 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8345 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8346 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8347 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8348 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8349
8350 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8351 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8352 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8353 [Steve Henson]
8354
8355 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8356 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8357 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8358 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8359 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8360 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8361 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8362 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8363
8364 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8365 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8366 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8367 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8368 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8369 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8370 [Steve Henson]
8371
8372 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8373 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8374 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8375 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8376 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8377 printout format cleaned up.
8378 [Steve Henson]
8379
8380 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8381 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8382 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8383 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8384 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8385 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8386 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8387 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8388 [Steve Henson]
8389
8390 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8391 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8392 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8393 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8394 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8395 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8396 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8397 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8398 [Steve Henson]
8399
8400 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8401 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8402 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8403 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8404 section to use.
8405 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8406
8407 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8408 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8409 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8410 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8411 [Steve Henson]
8412
8413 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8414 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8415 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8416 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8417 in the index file.
8418 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8419
8420 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8421 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8422 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8423 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8424
8425 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8426 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8427
8428 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8429 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8430 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8431 [Steve Henson]
8432
8433 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8434 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8435 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8436 [Bodo Moeller]
8437
8438 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8439 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8440 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8441 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8442 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8443 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8444 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8445 functions are provided:
8446
8447 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8448 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8449 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8450 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8451
8452 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8453 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8454 extended allocation function is enabled.
8455 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8456 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8457 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8458
8459 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8460 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8461 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8462 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8463 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8464 [Geoff Thorpe]
8465
8466 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8467 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8468 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8469 be queried.
8470 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8471 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8472 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8473 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8474
8475 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8476 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8477 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8478 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8479 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8480 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8481 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8482 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8483 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8484 [Richard Levitte]
8485
8486 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8487 provide utility functions which an application needing
8488 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8489 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8490 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8491
8492 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8493 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8494 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8495 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8496 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8497 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8498 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8499 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8500 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8501
8502 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8503 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8504 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8505 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8506 [Steve Henson]
8507
8508 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8509 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8510 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8511 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8512 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8513 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8514 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8515 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8516 will be added elsewhere.
8517 [Steve Henson]
8518
8519 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8520 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8521 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8522 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8523 [Steve Henson]
8524
8525 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8526 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8527 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8528 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8529 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8530 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8531 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8532 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8533 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8534 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8535 to produce the required SET OF.
8536 [Steve Henson]
8537
8538 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8539 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8540 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8541 [Richard Levitte]
8542
8543 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8544 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8545 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8546 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8547 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8548 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8549 [Steve Henson]
8550
8551 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8552 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8553 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8554 [Steve Henson]
8555
8556 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8557 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8558 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
8559 [Richard Levitte]
8560
8561 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
8562 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
8563 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
8564 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
8565 code will still work when these eventually go away.
8566 [Steve Henson]
8567
8568 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
8569 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
8570 [Steve Henson]
8571
8572 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
8573 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
8574 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
8575 certificates and CRLs.
8576 [Steve Henson]
8577
8578 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
8579 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
8580 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
8581 [Steve Henson]
8582
8583 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
8584 entries for variables.
8585 [Steve Henson]
8586
8587 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
8588 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
8589 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
8590 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
8591 [Bodo Moeller]
8592
8593 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
8594 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
8595 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
8596 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
8597 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
8598 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
8599 [Bodo Moeller]
8600
8601 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
8602 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
8603
8604 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
8605 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
8606 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
8607 [Steve Henson]
8608
8609 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
8610 print routines.
8611 [Steve Henson]
8612
8613 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
8614 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
8615 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
8616 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
8617 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
8618 order did not reflect the encoded order.
8619 [Steve Henson]
8620
8621 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
8622 [Steve Henson]
8623
8624 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
8625 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
8626 for now but they will eventually go away.
8627 [Steve Henson]
8628
8629 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
8630 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
8631 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
8632 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
8633 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
8634 has also been converted to the new form.
8635 [Steve Henson]
8636
8637 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
8638 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
8639 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
8640 for negative moduli.
8641 [Bodo Moeller]
8642
8643 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
8644 of not touching the result's sign bit.
8645 [Bodo Moeller]
8646
8647 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
8648 set.
8649 [Bodo Moeller]
8650
8651 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
8652 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
8653 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
8654 type-specific callbacks.
8655 [Geoff Thorpe]
8656
8657 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
8658 RFC 2712.
8659 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
8660 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
8661
8662 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
8663 in sections depending on the subject.
8664 [Richard Levitte]
8665
8666 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
8667 Windows.
8668 [Richard Levitte]
8669
8670 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
8671 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
8672 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
8673 be handled deterministically).
8674 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8675
8676 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
8677 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
8678 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
8679 [Bodo Moeller]
8680
8681 *) New function BN_kronecker.
8682 [Bodo Moeller]
8683
8684 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
8685 positive unless both parameters are zero.
8686 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
8687 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
8688 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
8689 [Bodo Moeller]
8690
8691 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
8692 sign of the number in question.
8693
8694 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
8695
8696 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
8697 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
8698 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
8699 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
8700 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
8701 [Bodo Moeller]
8702
8703 *) New function BN_swap.
8704 [Bodo Moeller]
8705
8706 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
8707 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
8708 results on negative inputs.
8709 [Bodo Moeller]
8710
8711 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
8712 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
8713 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
8714 [Bodo Moeller]
8715
8716 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
8717 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
8718 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
8719 and add new functions:
8720
8721 BN_nnmod
8722 BN_mod_sqr
8723 BN_mod_add
8724 BN_mod_add_quick
8725 BN_mod_sub
8726 BN_mod_sub_quick
8727 BN_mod_lshift1
8728 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
8729 BN_mod_lshift
8730 BN_mod_lshift_quick
8731
8732 These functions always generate non-negative results.
8733
8734 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
8735 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
8736
8737 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
8738 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
8739 be reduced modulo m.

8742 #if 0
8743 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
8744 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
8745 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
8746
8747 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
8748 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
8749 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
8750 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
8751 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
8752 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
8753 differing sizes.
8754 [Richard Levitte]
8755 #endif
8756
8757 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
8758 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
8759 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
8760 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
8761 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
8762
8763 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
8764 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
8765 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
8766 cause any problems.
8767 [Bodo Moeller]
8768
8769 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
8770 [Richard Levitte]
8771
8772 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
8773 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
8774 [Richard Levitte]
8775
8776 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
8777 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
8778 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
8779 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
8780 time)
8781 [Richard Levitte]
8782
8783 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
8784 [Richard Levitte]
8785
8786 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
8787 [Richard Levitte]
8788
8789 *) Add the following functions:
8790
8791 ENGINE_load_cswift()
8792 ENGINE_load_chil()
8793 ENGINE_load_atalla()
8794 ENGINE_load_nuron()
8795 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
8796
8797 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
8798 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
8799 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
8800 libraries unless it's really needed.
8801
8802 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
8803 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
8804 declarations (they differed!).
8805 [Richard Levitte]
8806
8807 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
8808 [Richard Levitte]
8809
8810 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
8811 [Richard Levitte]
8812
8813 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
8814 [Bodo Moeller]
8815
8816 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
8817 identity, and test if they are actually available.
8818 [Richard Levitte]
8819
8820 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
8821 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
8822 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8823
8824 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
8825 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
8826 [Richard Levitte]
8827
8828 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
8829 [Richard Levitte]
8830
8831 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
8832 [Richard Levitte]
8833
8834 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
8835 [Ben Laurie]
8836
8837 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
8838 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
8839 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
8840
8841 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
8842 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
8843 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
8844 different shared library filenames on each system.
8845 [Geoff Thorpe]
8846
8847 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
8848 [Richard Levitte]
8849
8850 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
8851 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
8852 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
8853 of two sections.
8854 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
8855
8856 *) NCONF changes.
8857 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
8858 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
8859 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
8860 binary backward compatibility.
8861 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
8862 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
8863 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
8864 LDAP server.
8865 [Richard Levitte]
8866
8867 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
8868 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
8869 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
8870 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
8871 this case.
8872 [Steve Henson]
8873
8874 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
8875 [Ben Laurie]
8876
8877 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
8878 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
8879 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
8880 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
8881 set.
8882 [Steve Henson]
8883
8884 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
8885 [Richard Levitte]
8886
8887 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
8888
8889 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
8890 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
8891 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
8892
8893 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
8894
8895 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
8896
8897 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
8898 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
8899 [Steve Henson]
8900
8901 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
8902
8903 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
8904
8905 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
8906 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
8907
8908 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
8909 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
8910
8911 [Steve Henson]
8912
8913 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
8914 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
8915 specifications.
8916 [Steve Henson]
8917
8918 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
8919 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
8920 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
8921 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
8922
8923 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
8924 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
8925 [Richard Levitte]
8926
8927 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
8928
8929 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
8930 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
8931 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
8932 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
8933 [Bodo Moeller]
8934
8935 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
8936 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
8937 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
8938 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
8939 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8940
8941 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
8942 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
8943 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
8944 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
8945 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
8946 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
8947 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
8948 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
8949 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
8950 [Bodo Moeller]
8951
8952 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
8953
8954 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
8955 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
8956 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
8957 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
8958 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
8959
8960 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
8961 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
8962 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
8963
8964 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
8965
8966 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
8967 memory from its contents. This is done with a counter that will
8968 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
8969 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
8970 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
8971 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
8972 [Geoff Thorpe]
8973
8974 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
8975 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
8976 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
8977 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
8978 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
8979 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8980
8981 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
8982 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
8983 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
8984
8985 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
8986 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
8987 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
8988 EVP_cleanup().
8989 [Richard Levitte]
8990
8991 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
8992 being properly terminated.
8993 [Richard Levitte]
8994
8995 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
8996 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
8997 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
8998 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
8999
9000 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
9001 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
9002 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
9003 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
9004 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
9005 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
9006 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
9007 change.
9008 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
9009
9010 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
9011 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
9012 [Bodo Moeller]
9013
9014 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
9015 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
9016 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
9017 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
9018 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
9019 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
9020 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
9021 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
9022
9023 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
9024 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
9025 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
9026 (see [openssl.org #212]).
9027 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
9028
9029 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
9030 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
9031 [Steve Henson]
9032
9033 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
9034
9035 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
9036 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
9037 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
9038
9039 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
9040
9041 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
9042 and get fix the header length calculation.
9043 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
9044 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
9045 Steve Henson]
9046
9047 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
9048 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
9049 assertions could call abort()).
9050 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
9051
9052 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
9053
9054 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9055 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9056 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9057 supplied buffer.
9058 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9059
9060 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
9061 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
9062 by the selection routines (PR #130).
9063 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9064
9065 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
9066 [Nils Larsch]
9067
9068 *) New option
9069 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
9070 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
9071 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
9072
9073 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
9074 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
9075 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
9076 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
9077 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
9078 applications.
9079 [Bodo Moeller]
9080
9081 *) Changes in security patch:
9082
9083 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
9084 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
9085 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
9086 F30602-01-2-0537.
9087
9088 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9089 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9090 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9091 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
9092 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9093
9094 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
9095 happen in practice.
9096 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9097
9098 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
9099 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
9100 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
9101
9102 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
9103 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
9104 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9105
9106 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
9107 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
9108 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9109
9110 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
9111
9112 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
9113 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
9114 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
9115
9116 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
9117 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
9118
9119 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
9120 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
9121 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
9122 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
9123 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
9124 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
9125 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9126
9127 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
9128 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
9129 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
9130 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
9131 [Bodo Moeller]
9132
9133 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
9134 [Bodo Moeller]
9135
9136 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
9137 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
9138 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
9139 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
9140 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
9141 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9142
9143 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
9144 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
9145 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
9146 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
9147 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
9148 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9149
9150 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
9151 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
9152 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
9153 BN_generate_prime().)
9154
9155 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
9156 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
9157 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
9158 better.
9159 [Bodo Moeller]
9160
9161 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
9162 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
9163 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9164
9165 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
9166 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
9167 when using non-blocking I/O.
9168 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
9169
9170 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
9171 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
9172
9173 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
9174 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
9175 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9176
9177 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
9178 configuration for the versions before that.
9179 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
9180
9181 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
9182 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
9183 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
9184 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
9185 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9186
9187 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
9188 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
9189 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
9190 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9191
9192 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
9193 value is 0.
9194 [Richard Levitte]
9195
9196 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
9197 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
9198 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
9199
9200 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
9201 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
9202
9203 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
9204 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
9205 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
9206 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
9207 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
9208 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
9209 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
9210 session cache.
9211
9212 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
9213 using a local variable.
9214 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
9215
9216 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
9217 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
9218 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9219
9220 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
9221 [Richard Levitte]
9222
9223 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
9224 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
9225
9226 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
9227 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
9228 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
9229
9230 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
9231
9232 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
9233 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
9234 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
9235 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
9236 [Bodo Moeller]
9237
9238 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
9239 present.
9240 [Steve Henson]
9241
9242 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
9243 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
9244 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
9245 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
9246 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
9247
9248 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
9249 returns early because it has nothing to do.
9250 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9251
9252 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9253 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
9254 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9255
9256 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9257 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
9258 (Use engine 'keyclient')
9259 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
9260
9261 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
9262 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
9263 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
9264 modules).
9265 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
9266
9267 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9268 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9269 from 0.9.7.
9270 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9271
9272 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9273 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9274 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9275 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9276
9277 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9278 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9279 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9280 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9281
9282 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9283 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9284
9285 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9286 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9287 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9288 [Bodo Moeller]
9289
9290 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9291 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9292 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9293 become invalid.
9294 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9295
9296 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9297 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9298 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9299 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9300 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9301 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9302 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9303 [Bodo Moeller]
9304
9305 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9306 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9307 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9308 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9309
9310 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9311 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9312 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9313 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9314 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9315 the client will at least see that alert.
9316 [Bodo Moeller]
9317
9318 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9319 correctly.
9320 [Bodo Moeller]
9321
9322 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9323 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9324 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9325
9326 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9327 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9328 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9329 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9330 HelloRequest.
9331
9332 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9333 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9334 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9335
9336 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9337 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9338 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9339 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9340 may leak via logfiles.)
9341
9342 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9343 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9344 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9345 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9346 the legal range.
9347 [Bodo Moeller]
9348
9349 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9350 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9351 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9352
9353 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9354 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9355 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9356 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9357 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9358 [Bodo Moeller]
9359
9360 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9361 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9362
9363 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9364 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9365 followed by modular reduction.
9366 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9367
9368 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9369 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9370 [Bodo Moeller]
9371
9372 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9373 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9374 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9375 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9376 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9377
9378 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9379 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9380
9381 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9382 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9383 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9384
9385 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9386 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9387 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9388 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9389 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9390 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9391 automatically.
9392 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9393
9394 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9395 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9396 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9397 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9398 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9399
9400 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9401 [Andy Polyakov]
9402
9403 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9404 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9405 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9406 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9407 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9408 to allow the necessary settings.
9409 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9410
9411 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9412 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9413 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9414 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9415 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9416
9417 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9418 dh->length and always used
9419
9420 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9421
9422 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9423 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9424 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9425 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9426 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9427 dh->length.
9428
9429 So switch back to
9430
9431 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9432
9433 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9434 otherwise.
9435 [Bodo Moeller]
9436
9437 *) In
9438
9439 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9440 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9441 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9442 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9443
9444 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9445 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9446 always reject numbers >= n.
9447 [Bodo Moeller]
9448
9449 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9450 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9451 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9452 variable) is not atomic.
9453 [Bodo Moeller]
9454
9455 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9456 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9457 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9458 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9459
9460 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9461 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9462
9463 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9464 little-endian MIPS.
9465 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9466
9467 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9468 [Richard Levitte]
9469
9470 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9471
9472 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9473 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9474 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9475 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9476 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9477 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9478 to traverse all of 'state'.
9479
9480 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9481 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9482 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9483
9484 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9485 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9486
9487 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9488 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9489 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9490 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9491 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9492 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9493 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9494 further strengthens the PRNG.
9495 [Bodo Moeller]
9496
9497 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9498 [Andy Polyakov]
9499
9500 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9501 an error message in this case.
9502 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9503
9504 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9505 [Steve Henson]
9506
9507 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9508 positive and less than q.
9509 [Bodo Moeller]
9510
9511 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9512 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9513 that itself.
9514 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9515
9516 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9517 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9518 [Bodo Moeller]
9519
9520 *) Fix OAEP check.
9521 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9522
9523 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9524 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9525 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9526 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9527 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9528 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9529 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9530 paper.)
9531
9532 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9533 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9534 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9535 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9536
9537 Both problems are now fixed.
9538 [Bodo Moeller]
9539
9540 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9541 (previously it was 1024).
9542 [Bodo Moeller]
9543
9544 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9545 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9546 [Steve Henson]
9547
9548 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9549 [Steve Henson]
9550
9551 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9552 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9553 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9554 [Steve Henson]
9555
9556 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9557 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9558 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
9559 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
9560 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
9561 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
9562 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
9563 environment variables.
9564
9565 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
9566 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
9567 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
9568 [Bodo Moeller]
9569
9570 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
9571 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
9572 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
9573 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
9574 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
9575 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
9576 [Bodo Moeller]
9577
9578 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
9579 versions of 'test'.
9580 [Bodo Moeller]
9581
9582 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
9583
9584 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
9585 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
9586
9587 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
9588 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
9589 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
9590 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
9591 CygWin.
9592 [Richard Levitte]
9593
9594 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
9595 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
9596 amount of data available.
9597 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
9598 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9599
9600 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
9601 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
9602 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
9603 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
9604 [Bodo Moeller]
9605
9606 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
9607 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
9608 and UnixWare.
9609 [Richard Levitte]
9610
9611 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
9612 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
9613 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
9614 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
9615 [Ulf Moeller]
9616
9617 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
9618 [Andy Polyakov]
9619
9620 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
9621 [Richard Levitte]
9622
9623 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
9624 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
9625 [Steve Henson]
9626 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9627
9628 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
9629 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
9630 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
9631 (but broken) behaviour.
9632 [Steve Henson]
9633
9634 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
9635 it when found.
9636 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
9637
9638 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
9639 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
9640 [Bodo Moeller]
9641
9642 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
9643 did not exist.
9644 [Bodo Moeller]
9645
9646 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
9647 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
9648
9649 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
9650 [Richard Levitte]
9651
9652 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
9653 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
9654 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
9655
9656 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
9657 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
9658 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
9659 [Steve Henson]
9660
9661 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
9662 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
9663 [Ulf Moeller]
9664
9665 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
9666 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
9667
9668 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
9669
9670 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
9671
9672 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
9673 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
9674 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
9675 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
9676 [Bodo Moeller]
9677
9678 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
9679 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9680
9681 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
9682 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
9683 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9684
9685 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
9686 was empty.
9687 [Steve Henson]
9688 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9689
9690 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
9691 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
9692 but the code is actually correct.
9693 [Steve Henson]
9694
9695 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
9696 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
9697 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
9698 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
9699 and leaves the highest bit random.
9700 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9701
9702 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
9703 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
9704 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
9705 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
9706 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
9707 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
9708 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
9709 [Bodo Moeller]
9710
9711 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
9712 [Ulf Moeller]
9713
9714 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
9715 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
9716 [Steve Henson]
9717
9718 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
9719 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
9720 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
9721 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
9722 headers.
9723 [Richard Levitte]
9724
9725 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
9726 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
9727 and break the signature.
9728 [Steve Henson]
9729 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9730
9731 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
9732 DH ciphersuites.
9733 [Steve Henson]
9734
9735 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
9736 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
9737 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
9738 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
9739 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
9740 [Bodo Moeller]
9741
9742 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
9743 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9744
9745 *) ./config script fixes.
9746 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
9747
9748 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
9749 [Bodo Moeller]
9750
9751 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
9752 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
9753 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
9754 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
9755 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
9756
9757 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
9758 call failed, free the DSA structure.
9759 [Bodo Moeller]
9760
9761 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
9762 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
9763 [Steve Henson]
9764
9765 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
9766 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
9767 when writing a 32767 byte record.
9768 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
9769
9770 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
9771 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
9772
9773 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
9774 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
9775 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
9776 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
9777 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
9778
9779 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
9780 [Bodo Moeller]
9781
9782 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
9783 [Ulf Möller]
9784
9785 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
9786 [Ulf Möller]
9787
9788 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
9789 [Bodo Moeller]
9790
9791 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
9792 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
9793 [Bodo Moeller]
9794
9795 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
9796 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
9797 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
9798 result of the server certificate verification.)
9799 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9800
9801 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
9802 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
9803 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
9804 [Bodo Moeller]
9805
9806 *) Fix SSL_peek:
9807 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
9808 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
9809 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
9810 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
9811 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
9812 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
9813 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
9814 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
9815 [Bodo Moeller]
9816
9817 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
9818 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
9819 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
9820 happening the other way round.
9821 [Geoff Thorpe]
9822
9823 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
9824 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
9825 [Bodo Moeller]
9826
9827 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
9828 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
9829 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
9830 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
9831 [Richard Levitte]
9832
9833 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
9834 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
9835
9836 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
9837
9838 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
9839 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
9840 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
9841 that.
9842
9843 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
9844
9845 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
9846
9847 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
9848 static ones.
9849 [Richard Levitte]
9850
9851 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
9852
9853 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
9854 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
9855 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
9856 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
9857 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
9858
9859 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
9860 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
9861 matter what.
9862 [Richard Levitte]
9863
9864 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
9865 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9866
9867 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
9868
9869 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
9870 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
9871 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
9872 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
9873 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
9874 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
9875 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
9876 by the Finished messages.
9877 [Bodo Moeller]
9878
9879 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
9880 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
9881
9882 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
9883 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
9884 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
9885 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
9886 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
9887 appropriately.
9888 [Steve Henson]
9889
9890 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
9891 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
9892 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
9893 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
9894 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
9895 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
9896 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
9897 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
9898 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
9899 together.
9900 [Steve Henson]
9901
9902 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
9903 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
9904 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
9905 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
9906
9907 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
9908 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
9909 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
9910 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
9911 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
9912 the answer.
9913
9914 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
9915 been tested well enough.
9916 [Richard Levitte]
9917
9918 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
9919 it can return incorrect results.
9920 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
9921 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
9922 [Bodo Moeller]
9923
9924 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
9925 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
9926 include zero length content when signing messages.
9927 [Steve Henson]
9928
9929 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
9930 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
9931 [Bodo Möller]
9932
9933 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
9934 [Richard Levitte]
9935
9936 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
9937 wrong sign.
9938 [Ulf Möller]
9939
9940 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
9941 packages. The default package contains applications, application
9942 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
9943 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
9944 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
9945 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
9946 [Richard Levitte]
9947
9948 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
9949 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9950
9951 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
9952 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
9953
9954 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
9955 random number < q in the DSA library.
9956 [Ulf Möller]
9957
9958 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
9959 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
9960 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
9961 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
9962 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
9963 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
9964 just makes things more complicated.)
9965 [Bodo Moeller]
9966
9967 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
9968 from EGD.
9969 [Ben Laurie]
9970
9971 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
9972 work better on such systems.
9973 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9974
9975 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
9976 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
9977 keyid to the certificates aux info.
9978 [Steve Henson]
9979
9980 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
9981 if there was more than one signature.
9982 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
9983
9984 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
9985 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
9986 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
9987 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
9988 [Richard Levitte]
9989
9990 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
9991 rather than always using the current time.
9992 [Steve Henson]
9993
9994 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
9995 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
9996 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
9997 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
9998 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
9999 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
10000
10001 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
10002 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
10003
10004 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
10005
10006 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
10007 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
10008 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
10009 the same hash value.
10010
10011 As a result various functions (which were all internal
10012 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
10013 structure. This will break anything that messed round
10014 with X509_STORE internally.
10015
10016 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
10017 exact match, rather than just subject name.
10018
10019 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
10020 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
10021 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
10022 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
10023 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
10024 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
10025 entirely (maybe later...).
10026
10027 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
10028
10029 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
10030 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
10031 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
10032 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
10033 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
10034 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
10035 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
10036 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
10037
10038 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
10039 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
10040
10041 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
10042 to customise the verify behaviour.
10043 [Steve Henson]
10044
10045 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
10046 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
10047 [Steve Henson]
10048
10049 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
10050 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
10051 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
10052 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
10053 request is improperly encoded.
10054 [Steve Henson]
10055
10056 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
10057 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
10058 BIO_write(b, ...).
10059
10060 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
10061 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
10062
10063 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
10064 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
10065 words set to zero.)
10066 [Bodo Moeller]
10067
10068 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
10069 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
10070 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
10071 [Bodo Moeller]
10072
10073 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
10074 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
10075 BIO/fp routines also added.
10076 [Steve Henson]
10077
10078 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
10079 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
10080
10081 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
10082 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
10083 demos/state_machine.
10084 [Ben Laurie]
10085
10086 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
10087 generation and verification.
10088 [Steve Henson]
10089
10090 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
10091 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
10092 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
10093 encode and decode it manually.
10094 [Steve Henson]
10095
10096 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
10097 compile under VC++.
10098 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
10099
10100 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
10101 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
10102 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
10103 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
10104
10105 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
10106 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
10107 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
10108 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
10109 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
10110 [Steve Henson]
10111
10112 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
10113 [Richard Levitte]
10114
10115 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
10116 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
10117 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
10118
10119 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
10120 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
10121 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
10122 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
10123 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
10124 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
10125 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
10126 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
10127
10128 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
10129 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
10130
10131 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
10132
10133 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
10134 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
10135 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
10136
10137 [Richard Levitte]
10138
10139 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
10140 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
10141 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
10142 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
10143 [Richard Levitte]
10144
10145 *) MD4 implemented.
10146 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
10147
10148 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
10149 [Richard Levitte]
10150
10151 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
10152 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
10153 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
10154 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
10155 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
10156 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
10157 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
10158 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
10159 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
10160 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
10161 short or long names are found.
10162 [Steve Henson]
10163
10164 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
10165 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
10166
10167 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
10168 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
10169 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
10170 version rollback attacks was not effective.
10171
10172 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
10173 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
10174 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
10175 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
10176 [Bodo Moeller]
10177
10178 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
10179 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
10180 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
10181 [Richard Levitte]
10182
10183 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
10184 these print out strings and name structures based on various
10185 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
10186 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
10187 to allow the various flags to be set.
10188 [Steve Henson]
10189
10190 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
10191 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
10192 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
10193 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
10194 dates to be checked.
10195 [Steve Henson]
10196
10197 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
10198 negative public key encodings) on by default,
10199 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
10200 [Steve Henson]
10201
10202 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
10203 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
10204 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
10205 [Steve Henson]
10206
10207 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
10208 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
10209 [Bodo Moeller]
10210
10211 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
10212 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
10213 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
10214 are always statically linked for now, but there are
10215 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
10216 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
10217 [Richard Levitte]
10218
10219 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
10220 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
10221 Random Numbers.
10222 [Ulf Möller]
10223
10224 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
10225 DSA key.
10226 [Steve Henson]
10227
10228 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
10229 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
10230 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
10231 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
10232 form signing output easier to verify.
10233 [Steve Henson]
10234
10235 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
10236 [Steve Henson]
10237
10238 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
10239 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
10240 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
10241 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
10242 are needed because all other string types have virtually
10243 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
10244 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
10245 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
10246 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
10247 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
10248 [Steve Henson]
10249
10250 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
10251
10252 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
10253 the syntax given in objects.README.
10254 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
10255 obj_mac.h.
10256 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
10257 obj_mac.h.
10258
10259 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
10260 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
10261 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
10262 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
10263 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
10264 consistent name changes.
10265 [Richard Levitte]
10266
10267 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
10268 [Bodo Moeller]
10269
10270 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10271 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10272 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10273 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10274 [Richard Levitte]
10275
10276 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10277 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10278 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10279 of safestack.h .
10280 [Steve Henson]
10281
10282 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10283 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10284 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10285 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10286 [Steve Henson]
10287
10288 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10289 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10290 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10291 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10292 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10293 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10294 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10295 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10296 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10297 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10298 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10299 [Steve Henson]
10300
10301 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10302 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10303 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10304 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10305 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10306 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10307 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10308 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10309 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10310 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10311 [Steve Henson]
10312
10313 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10314 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10315 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10316 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10317
10318 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10319 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10320 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10321 omit any duplicate addresses.
10322 [Steve Henson]
10323
10324 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10325 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10326 [Bodo Moeller]
10327
10328 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10329 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10330 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10331 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10332 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10333 [Bodo Moeller]
10334
10335 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10336 software:
10337 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10338 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10339 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10340 Free => OPENSSL_free
10341 [Richard Levitte]
10342
10343 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10344 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10345 [Bodo Moeller]
10346
10347 *) CygWin32 support.
10348 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10349
10350 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10351 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10352 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10353 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10354 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10355 approach.
10356 [Geoff Thorpe]
10357
10358 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10359 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10360 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10361 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10362 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10363 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10364 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10365 [Geoff Thorpe]
10366
10367 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10368 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10369 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10370 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10371 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10372 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10373 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10374 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10375 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10376 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10377 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10378 [Bodo Moeller]
10379
10380 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10381 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10382 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10383 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10384 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10385
10386 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10387 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10388 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10389 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10390 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10391
10392 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10393 ciphers.
10394
10395 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10396 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10397 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10398 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10399
10400 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10401
10402 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10403 of macros.
10404
10405 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10406 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10407 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10408 flags.
10409
10410 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10411 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10412 any installed hardware versions can.
10413 [Steve Henson]
10414
10415 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10416 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10417 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10418 number.
10419 [Bodo Moeller]
10420
10421 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10422 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10423 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10424 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10425 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10426
10427 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10428 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10429 [Steve Henson]
10430
10431 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10432 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10433 [Richard Levitte]
10434
10435 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10436 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10437 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10438 features.
10439 [Steve Henson]
10440
10441 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10442 [Ulf Möller]
10443
10444 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10445 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10446 but no ssl client purpose.
10447 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10448
10449 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10450 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10451 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10452 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10453 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10454 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10455 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10456 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10457 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10458 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10459 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10460 [Steve Henson]
10461
10462 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10463 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10464 be obtained from the error queue.
10465 [Bodo Moeller]
10466
10467 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10468 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10469 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10470 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10471 [Bodo Moeller]
10472
10473 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10474 [Ulf Möller]
10475
10476 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10477 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10478 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10479 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10480 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10481 [Geoff Thorpe]
10482
10483 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10484 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10485 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10486 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10487 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10488 [Geoff Thorpe]
10489
10490 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10491 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10492 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10493 may not be NULL.
10494 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10495
10496 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10497 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10498 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10499 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10500 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10501 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10502 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10503 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10504 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10505 or "the configuration storage API"...
10506
10507 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10508
10509 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10510 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10511
10512 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10513
10514 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10515
10516 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10517 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10518 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10519 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10520 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10521 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
10522 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10523
10524 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10525 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10526 [Richard Levitte]
10527
10528 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10529 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10530 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10531 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10532 [Bodo Moeller]
10533
10534 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10535 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10536 them in a portable way.
10537 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10538
10539 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10540
10541 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10542
10543 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10544 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10545
10546 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10547 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10548 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10549 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10550
10551 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10552 was larger than the MD block size.
10553 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10554
10555 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10556 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10557 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10558 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
10559 components.
10560 [Steve Henson]
10561
10562 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
10563 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
10564 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
10565
10566 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
10567 discouraged.
10568 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
10569
10570 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
10571 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
10572 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
10573 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
10574 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
10575 Additional arguments are always ignored.
10576
10577 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
10578 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
10579
10580 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
10581 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
10582 [Bodo Moeller]
10583
10584 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
10585 [Bodo Moeller]
10586
10587 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
10588 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
10589 its own key.
10590 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
10591 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
10592 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
10593 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
10594 [Bodo Moeller]
10595
10596 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
10597 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
10598 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
10599 does not suppress any output.
10600 [Richard Levitte]
10601
10602 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
10603 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
10604 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
10605 with all the associated security issues.
10606
10607 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
10608 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
10609 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
10610 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
10611 use the value in the default purpose.
10612 [Steve Henson]
10613
10614 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
10615 and fix a memory leak.
10616 [Steve Henson]
10617
10618 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
10619 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
10620 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
10621 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
10622 [Bodo Moeller]
10623
10624 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
10625 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
10626 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
10627 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
10628 [Bodo Moeller]
10629
10630 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
10631 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
10632 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
10633 [Bodo Moeller]
10634
10635 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
10636 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
10637 [Bodo Moeller]
10638
10639 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
10640 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
10641 which was free.
10642 [Steve Henson]
10643
10644 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
10645 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
10646 [Bodo Moeller]
10647
10648 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
10649 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
10650 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
10651 [Bodo Moeller]
10652
10653 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
10654 number generation fails.
10655 [Bodo Moeller]
10656
10657 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
10658 [Bodo Moeller]
10659
10660 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
10661 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
10662
10663 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
10664 [Ulf Möller]
10665
10666 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
10667 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
10668
10669 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
10670 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
10671
10672 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
10673
10674 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
10675 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
10676 [Steve Henson]
10677
10678 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
10679 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
10680
10681 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
10682 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
10683 [Ulf Möller]
10684
10685 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
10686 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
10687 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
10688 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
10689 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
10690 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
10691
10692 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
10693 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
10694 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
10695 for example.
10696 [Steve Henson]
10697
10698 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
10699 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
10700 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
10701 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
10702 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
10703 counter, some don't.)
10704 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
10705 counters or duplicate objects.
10706 [Steve Henson]
10707
10708 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
10709 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
10710 [Steve Henson]
10711
10712 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
10713 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
10714 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
10715
10716 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
10717 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
10718 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
10719 or -rand.
10720 [Ulf Möller]
10721
10722 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
10723 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
10724 [Steve Henson]
10725
10726 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
10727 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
10728 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
10729 cipher list.
10730 [Steve Henson]
10731
10732 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
10733 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
10734 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
10735 [Steve Henson]
10736
10737 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
10738 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
10739 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
10740 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
10741 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
10742 should work without changes.
10743 [Richard Levitte]
10744
10745 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
10746 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
10747 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
10748 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
10749 must be defined. E.g.,
10750 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
10751 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
10752 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
10753 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
10754
10755 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
10756 record layer.
10757 [Bodo Moeller]
10758
10759 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
10760 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
10761 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
10762 [Steve Henson]
10763
10764 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
10765 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
10766 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
10767 request header lines. Some software needs this.
10768 [Steve Henson]
10769
10770 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
10771 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
10772 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
10773 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
10774 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
10775 is prompted for as usual.
10776 [Steve Henson]
10777
10778 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
10779 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
10780 autodetect the card and use it if present.
10781 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
10782
10783 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
10784 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
10785 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
10786 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
10787 [Steve Henson]
10788
10789 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
10790 [Andy Polyakov]
10791
10792 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
10793 of seed file.
10794 [Steve Henson]
10795
10796 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
10797 [Bodo Moeller]
10798
10799 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
10800 [Steve Henson]
10801
10802 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
10803 bits.
10804 [Ulf Möller]
10805
10806 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
10807 [Ulf Möller]
10808
10809 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
10810 [Andy Polyakov]
10811
10812 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
10813 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
10814 [Ulf Möller]
10815
10816 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
10817 options to produce them.
10818 [Steve Henson]
10819
10820 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
10821 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
10822 [Ulf Möller]
10823
10824 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
10825 for p == 0.
10826 [Ulf Möller]
10827
10828 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
10829 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
10830 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
10831 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
10832 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
10833 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
10834 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
10835 [Steve Henson]
10836
10837 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
10838 [Steve Henson]
10839
10840 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
10841 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
10842 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
10843 [Bodo Moeller]
10844
10845 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
10846 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
10847
10848 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
10849 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
10850 [Ulf Möller]
10851
10852 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
10853 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
10854 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
10855 has already seen).
10856 [Bodo Moeller]
10857
10858 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
10859 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
10860
10861 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
10862 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
10863 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
10864 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
10865 generation becomes much faster.
10866
10867 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
10868 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
10869 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
10870 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
10871 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
10872 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
10873 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
10874 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
10875 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
10876 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
10877 [Bodo Moeller]
10878
10879 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
10880 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
10881 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
10882 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
10883 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
10884 trial division stage.
10885 [Bodo Moeller]
10886
10887 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
10888 as ASN1_TIME.
10889 [Steve Henson]
10890
10891 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
10892 [Steve Henson]
10893
10894 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
10895 [Ulf Möller]
10896
10897 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
10898 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
10899 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
10900 the comments.
10901 [Ulf Möller]
10902
10903 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
10904 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
10905 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
10906 [Bodo Moeller]
10907
10908 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
10909 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
10910 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
10911 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
10912
10913 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
10914 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
10915 [Steve Henson]
10916
10917 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
10918 [Ulf Möller]
10919
10920 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
10921 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
10922 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
10923 Rabin-Miller iterations.
10924 [Ulf Möller]
10925
10926 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
10927 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
10928 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
10929 [Ulf Möller]
10930
10931 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
10932 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
10933 (instead of parameters) in future.
10934 [Steve Henson]
10935
10936 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
10937 when a new cipher list is set.
10938 [Steve Henson]
10939
10940 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
10941 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
10942 wrong.
10943
10944 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
10945 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
10946 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
10947
10948 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
10949 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
10950 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
10951 an error is flagged.
10952
10953 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
10954 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
10955 the readability was also increased :-)
10956 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10957
10958 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
10959 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
10960 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
10961 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
10962 as the root CA.
10963 [Steve Henson]
10964
10965 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
10966 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
10967 [Steve Henson]
10968
10969 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
10970 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
10971 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
10972 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
10973 instead.
10974
10975 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
10976 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
10977 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
10978 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
10979 because they handle more complex structures.)
10980 [Steve Henson]
10981
10982 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
10983 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
10984 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
10985 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10986
10987 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
10988 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
10989 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
10990 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
10991 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
10992 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
10993 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
10994 [Ulf Möller]
10995
10996 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
10997 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
10998 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
10999 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
11000 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
11001 [Bodo Moeller]
11002
11003 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
11004 [Bodo Moeller]
11005
11006 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
11007 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
11008 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
11009 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
11010 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
11011 to use this.
11012
11013 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
11014 code.
11015 [Steve Henson]
11016
11017 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
11018 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
11019 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
11020 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
11021 [Steve Henson]
11022
11023 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
11024 [Ulf Möller]
11025
11026 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
11027 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
11028 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
11029 international characters are used.
11030
11031 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
11032 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
11033 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
11034 in ASN1 order.
11035 [Steve Henson]
11036
11037 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
11038 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
11039 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
11040 request.
11041
11042 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
11043 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
11044 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
11045 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
11046 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
11047 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
11048
11049 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
11050 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
11051 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
11052 be handled by the string table functions.
11053
11054 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
11055 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
11056 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
11057 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
11058 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
11059 types at all.
11060 [Steve Henson]
11061
11062 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
11063 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
11064 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
11065 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
11066 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
11067
11068 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
11069 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
11070 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
11071 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
11072 [Bodo Moeller]
11073
11074 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
11075 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
11076 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
11077 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
11078 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
11079 SHA1.
11080 [Andy Polyakov]
11081
11082 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
11083 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
11084 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
11085 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
11086 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
11087 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
11088 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
11089 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
11090
11091 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
11092 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
11093 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
11094 [Steve Henson]
11095
11096 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
11097 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
11098 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
11099 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
11100 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
11101 support to pkcs8 application.
11102 [Steve Henson]
11103
11104 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
11105 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
11106 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
11107 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
11108 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
11109 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
11110 [Bodo Moeller]
11111
11112 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
11113 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
11114 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
11115 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
11116 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
11117 consistency.
11118 [Bodo Moeller]
11119
11120 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
11121 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
11122 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
11123 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
11124 example.
11125 [Steve Henson]
11126
11127 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
11128 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
11129 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
11130 and any application specific purposes.
11131
11132 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
11133 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
11134 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
11135 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
11136 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
11137 if the certificate is self signed.
11138 [Steve Henson]
11139
11140 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
11141 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
11142 [Steve Henson]
11143
11144 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
11145 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
11146 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
11147 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
11148 [Steve Henson]
11149
11150 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
11151 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
11152 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
11153 Update documentation.
11154 [Steve Henson]
11155
11156 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
11157 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
11158 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
11159 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
11160 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
11161 [Steve Henson]
11162
11163 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
11164 for details.
11165 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
11166
11167 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
11168 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
11169 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
11170 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
11171 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
11172 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
11173 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
11174 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
11175 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
11176 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
11177
11178 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
11179
11180 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11181 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11182 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
11183 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
11184 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
11185
11186 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
11187 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
11188 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
11189 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
11190 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
11191 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
11192 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
11193 request additional information:
11194 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
11195 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
11196
11197 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
11198 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
11199 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
11200 options.
11201
11202 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
11203 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
11204
11205 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
11206 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
11207 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
11208
11209 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
11210 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
11211
11212 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
11213 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
11214 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
11215 algorithm.
11216 [Steve Henson]
11217
11218 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
11219 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
11220 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
11221
11222 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
11223 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
11224 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
11225 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
11226 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
11227 included in OpenSSL.
11228 [Steve Henson]
11229
11230 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
11231 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
11232 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
11233 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
11234 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
11235 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
11236 [Bodo Moeller]
11237
11238 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
11239 PKCS12 structure.
11240 [Steve Henson]
11241
11242 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
11243 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
11244 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
11245 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
11246 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
11247 structure.
11248 [Steve Henson]
11249
11250 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
11251 need initialising.
11252 [Steve Henson]
11253
11254 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
11255 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
11256 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
11257 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
11258 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
11259 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
11260 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
11261 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
11262 be maintained manually.
11263
11264 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
11265 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
11266 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
11267 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
11268 work because people forget to call this function]
11269 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11270 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11271 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11272 [Steve Henson]
11273
11274 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11275 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11276 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11277 should be discouraged from doing it.
11278 [Ben Laurie]
11279
11280 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11281 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11282 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11283 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11284 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11285 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11286 [Steve Henson]
11287
11288 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11289 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11290 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11291
11292 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11293 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11294 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11295
11296 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11297 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11298 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11299 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11300 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11301 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11302
11303 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11304 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11305 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11306
11307 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11308 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11309 and vice versa.
11310
11311 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11312 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11313 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11314 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11315 [Steve Henson]
11316
11317 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11318 [Steve Henson]
11319
11320 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11321 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11322 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11323 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11324 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11325 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11326 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11327 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11328 keys so we should be OK.
11329
11330 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11331 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11332 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11333 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11334 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11335 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11336 stay in the name of compatibility.
11337
11338 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11339 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11340 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11341
11342 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11343 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11344 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11345 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11346 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11347 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11348 supplied key).
11349 [Steve Henson]
11350
11351 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11352 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11353 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11354 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11355 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11356 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11357 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11358 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11359 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11360 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11361 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11362 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11363 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11364 [Steve Henson]
11365
11366 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11367 [Steve Henson]
11368
11369 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11370 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11371 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11372 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11373 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11374 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11375 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11376 openssl verify ss.pem
11377 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11378 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11379 is OK.
11380 [Steve Henson]
11381
11382 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11383 (and add it to external session representation).
11384 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11385 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11386 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11387 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11388 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11389 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11390 security holes.
11391 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11392
11393 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11394 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11395 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11396 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11397
11398 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11399 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11400 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11401 [Steve Henson]
11402
11403 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11404 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11405 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11406 code.
11407 [Steve Henson]
11408
11409 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11410 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11411 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11412
11413 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11414 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11415 certificate auxiliary information.
11416 [Steve Henson]
11417
11418 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11419 the 'enc' command.
11420 [Steve Henson]
11421
11422 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11423 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11424 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11425 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11426 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11427 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11428 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11429 [Richard Levitte]
11430
11431 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11432 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11433 [Steve Henson]
11434
11435 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11436 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11437 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11438 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11439 [Steve Henson]
11440
11441 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11442 [Steve Henson]
11443
11444 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11445 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11446 [Steve Henson]
11447
11448 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11449 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11450 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11451 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11452 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11453 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11454 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11455 using the new 'x509' options.
11456
11457 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11458 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11459 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11460 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11461 for all purposes.
11462 [Steve Henson]
11463
11464 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11465 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11466 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11467 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11468 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11469 [Mark Cox]
11470
11471 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11472 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11473 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11474 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11475 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11476 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11477 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11478 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11479 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11480 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11481 [Steve Henson]
11482
11483 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11484 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11485 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11486 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11487 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11488 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11489 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11490 [Steve Henson]
11491
11492 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11493 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11494 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11495 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11496 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11497 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11498 openssl.cnf for more info.
11499 [Steve Henson]
11500
11501 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11502 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11503 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11504 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11505 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11506 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11507 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11508 md should be large enough anyway.
11509 [Bodo Moeller]
11510
11511 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11512 for handling the random seed file.
11513
11514 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11515 ca,
11516 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11517 s_client,
11518 s_server,
11519 x509 (when signing).
11520 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11521 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11522 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11523
11524 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11525 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11526 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11527 that support '-rand'.
11528 [Bodo Moeller]
11529
11530 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11531 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11532 [Bodo Moeller]
11533
11534 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11535 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11536 [Bill Perry]
11537
11538 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11539 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11540 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11541 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11542 is suitable.
11543 [Steve Henson]
11544
11545 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11546 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11547 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11548 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11549 [Steve Henson]
11550
11551 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11552 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11553 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11554 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11555 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11556 print out all the purposes.
11557 [Steve Henson]
11558
11559 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
11560 functions.
11561 [Steve Henson]
11562
11563 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
11564 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
11565 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
11566 single function call.
11567 [Steve Henson]
11568
11569 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
11570 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
11571 [Andy Polyakov]
11572
11573 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
11574 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
11575 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
11576 [Steve Henson]
11577
11578 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
11579 when producing the local key id.
11580 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11581
11582 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
11583 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
11584 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
11585 "server.pem".
11586 [Steve Henson]
11587
11588 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
11589 a public key to be input or output. For example:
11590 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
11591 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
11592 [Steve Henson]
11593
11594 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
11595 in the message. This was handled by allowing
11596 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
11597 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
11598
11599 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
11600 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
11601 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
11602 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11603
11604 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
11605 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
11606 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
11607 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
11608 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
11609 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
11610 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
11611 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
11612 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
11613 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
11614 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
11615 trivial: move one line.
11616 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
11617
11618 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
11619 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
11620 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
11621 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
11622 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
11623 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
11624 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
11625 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
11626 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
11627 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
11628 with an event loop for example.
11629 [Steve Henson]
11630
11631 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
11632 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
11633 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
11634 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
11635 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
11636 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
11637 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
11638 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
11639 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
11640 [Steve Henson]
11641
11642 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
11643 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
11644 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
11645 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
11646 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
11647 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
11648 [Steve Henson]
11649
11650 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
11651 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
11652 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
11653 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
11654
11655 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
11656 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
11657 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
11658 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
11659 key generation.
11660 [Steve Henson]
11661
11662 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
11663 (still largely untested)
11664 [Bodo Moeller]
11665
11666 *) New function ASN1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
11667 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
11668 [Steve Henson]
11669
11670 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
11671 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
11672 [Steve Henson]
11673
11674 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
11675 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
11676 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
11677 [Bodo Moeller]
11678
11679 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
11680 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
11681 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
11682 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
11683 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
11684 [Steve Henson]
11685
11686 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
11687 [Andy Polyakov]
11688
11689 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
11690 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
11691 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
11692 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
11693 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
11694 in ca.
11695 [Steve Henson]
11696
11697 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
11698 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
11699 1.OU="Unit name 1"
11700 2.OU="Unit name 2"
11701 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
11702 [Steve Henson]
11703
11704 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
11705 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
11706 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
11707 are otherwise ignored at present.
11708 [Steve Henson]
11709
11710 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
11711 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
11712 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
11713 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
11714 copied until the next read.
11715 [Steve Henson]
11716
11717 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
11718 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
11719 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
11720 [Steve Henson]
11721
11722 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
11723 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
11724 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
11725 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
11726 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
11727 associated functions.
11728 [Steve Henson]
11729
11730 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
11731 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
11732 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
11733 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
11734 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
11735 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
11736 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
11737 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
11738 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
11739 memory BIOs.
11740 [Steve Henson]
11741
11742 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
11743 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
11744 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
11745 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
11746 [Bodo Moeller]
11747
11748 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
11749 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
11750 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
11751 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
11752 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
11753 functionality.
11754 [Steve Henson]
11755
11756 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
11757 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
11758 under Win32.
11759 [Steve Henson]
11760
11761 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
11762 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
11763 extensions to be obtained and added.
11764 [Steve Henson]
11765
11766 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
11767 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
11768 [Bodo Moeller]
11769
11770 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
11771
11772 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11773 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11774
11775 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
11776 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
11777
11778 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
11779 program.
11780 [Steve Henson]
11781
11782 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
11783 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
11784 DH parameters contain its length).
11785
11786 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
11787 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
11788 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
11789 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
11790 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
11791 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
11792 utter importance to use
11793 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11794 or
11795 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11796 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
11797 attacks may become possible!
11798 [Bodo Moeller]
11799
11800 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
11801 [Bodo Moeller]
11802
11803 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
11804 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
11805 [Steve Henson]
11806
11807 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
11808 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
11809 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
11810 or long name.
11811 [Steve Henson]
11812
11813 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
11814 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
11815 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
11816 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
11817 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
11818 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
11819 private key operations.
11820 [Steve Henson]
11821
11822 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
11823 [Andy Polyakov]
11824
11825 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
11826 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
11827 to
11828 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
11829 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
11830 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
11831 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
11832 the password callback is called.
11833 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
11834
11835 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
11836
11837 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
11838 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
11839 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
11840 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
11841 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
11842 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
11843 this will work.
11844
11845 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
11846 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
11847 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
11848 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
11849 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
11850 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
11851 [Bodo Moeller]
11852
11853 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
11854 [Andy Polyakov]
11855
11856 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
11857 delete an unused file.
11858 [Ulf Möller]
11859
11860 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
11861 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
11862 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
11863 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
11864 [Steve Henson]
11865
11866 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
11867 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
11868 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
11869 of an error.
11870 [Bodo Moeller]
11871
11872 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
11873 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
11874 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
11875
11876 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
11877 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
11878 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
11879 comparison" warnings.
11880 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
11881 [Steve Henson]
11882
11883 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
11884 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
11885 derived keys are printed to stderr.
11886 [Steve Henson]
11887
11888 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
11889 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
11890
11891 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
11892 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
11893
11894 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
11895 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
11896 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
11897
11898 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
11899 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
11900 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
11901 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
11902 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
11903 this bug.
11904 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
11905
11906 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
11907 The interface is as follows:
11908 Applications can use
11909 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
11910 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
11911 "off" is now the default.
11912 The library internally uses
11913 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
11914 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
11915 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
11916
11917 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
11918 even the default) are now avoided.
11919
11920 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
11921 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
11922 than just having a counter.
11923
11924 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
11925
11926 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
11927 extensions.
11928 [Bodo Moeller]
11929
11930 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
11931 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
11932 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
11933 Initial "mode" flags are:
11934
11935 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
11936 a single record has been written.
11937 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
11938 retries use the same buffer location.
11939 (But all of the contents must be
11940 copied!)
11941 [Bodo Moeller]
11942
11943 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
11944 worked.
11945
11946 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
11947 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
11948
11949 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
11950 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
11951 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
11952 [Steve Henson]
11953
11954 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
11955 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
11956 test programs.
11957 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
11958
11959 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
11960 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
11961 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
11962 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
11963 point to the end.
11964 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
11965 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
11966
11967 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
11968 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
11969 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
11970 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
11971 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
11972 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
11973 [Steve Henson]
11974
11975 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
11976 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
11977 necessary function names.
11978 [Steve Henson]
11979
11980 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
11981 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
11982 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
11983 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
11984 [Bodo Moeller]
11985
11986 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
11987 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
11988 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
11989 [Steve Henson]
11990
11991 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
11992 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
11993 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
11994 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
11995 such programs?)
11996 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
11997 need locks.
11998 [Bodo Moeller]
11999
12000 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
12001 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
12002 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
12003 [Bodo Moeller]
12004
12005 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
12006 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
12007 appropriate.
12008 [Bodo Moeller]
12009
12010 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
12011 for the encoded length.
12012 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
12013
12014 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
12015 [Steve Henson]
12016
12017 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
12018 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
12019 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
12020 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
12021 [Steve Henson]
12022
12023 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
12024 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
12025 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12026
12027 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
12028 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
12029 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
12030 unusual formatting.
12031 [Steve Henson]
12032
12033 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
12034 to use the new extension code.
12035 [Steve Henson]
12036
12037 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
12038 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
12039 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
12040 constant.
12041 [Steve Henson]
12042
12043 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
12044 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
12045 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
12046 [Bodo Moeller]
12047
12048 #if 0
12049 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
12050 [Ben Laurie]
12051 #else
12052 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
12053 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
12054 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
12055 #endif
12056
12057 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
12058 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
12059 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
12060 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
12061 [Ben Laurie]
12062
12063 *) DES library cleanups.
12064 [Ulf Möller]
12065
12066 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
12067 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
12068 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
12069 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
12070 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
12071 of v2.0.
12072 [Steve Henson]
12073
12074 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
12075 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
12076 [Bodo Moeller]
12077
12078 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
12079 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
12080 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
12081 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
12082 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
12083 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
12084 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
12085 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
12086 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
12087 [Steve Henson]
12088
12089 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
12090 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
12091 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
12092 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
12093 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
12094 value doesn't matter.
12095 [Steve Henson]
12096
12097 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
12098 support mutable.
12099 [Ben Laurie]
12100
12101 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
12102 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
12103 "linux-sparc" configuration.
12104 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
12105
12106 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
12107 [Ulf Möller]
12108
12109 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
12110 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
12111 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12112
12113 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
12114 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12115
12116 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
12117 [Ben Laurie]
12118
12119 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
12120 [Ben Laurie]
12121
12122 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
12123 [Ben Laurie]
12124
12125 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
12126 [Bodo Moeller]
12127
12128
12129 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
12130
12131 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
12132
12133 *) Updated some demos.
12134 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
12135
12136 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
12137 [Wu Zhigang]
12138
12139 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
12140 [Steve Henson]
12141
12142 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
12143 [Steve Henson]
12144
12145 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
12146 instead of using a fixed path.
12147 [Bodo Moeller]
12148
12149 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
12150 [Andy Polyakov]
12151
12152 *) Improvements for VMS support.
12153 [Richard Levitte]
12154
12155
12156 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
12157
12158 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
12159 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
12160 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12161
12162 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
12163 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
12164 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
12165 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
12166 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
12167 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
12168 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
12169 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
12170 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
12171 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
12172 [Steve Henson]
12173
12174 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
12175 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
12176 [Steve Henson]
12177
12178 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
12179 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
12180 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
12181 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
12182 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
12183
12184 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
12185 [Bodo Moeller]
12186
12187 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
12188 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
12189 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
12190 [Steve Henson]
12191
12192 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
12193 [Ben Laurie]
12194
12195 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
12196 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
12197 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
12198 key elements as negative integers.
12199 [Steve Henson]
12200
12201 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
12202 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12203
12204 *) VMS support.
12205 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
12206
12207 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
12208 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
12209 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
12210 [Steve Henson]
12211
12212 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
12213 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
12214 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
12215 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
12216 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
12217 [Bodo Moeller]
12218
12219 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
12220 [Ulf Möller]
12221
12222 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
12223 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
12224 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
12225 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12226
12227 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
12228 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
12229 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
12230
12231 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
12232 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
12233 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
12234 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
12235 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
12236 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
12237 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
12238 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
12239 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
12240
12241 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
12242 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
12243 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
12244 does not influence s as it used to.
12245
12246 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
12247 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
12248 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
12249 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
12250 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
12251 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
12252 [Bodo Moeller]
12253
12254 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
12255 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
12256 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
12257 key type.
12258 [Steve Henson]
12259
12260 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
12261 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
12262 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
12263 and 'x509').
12264 [Steve Henson]
12265
12266 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
12267 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
12268 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12269 extension option.
12270 [Steve Henson]
12271
12272 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12273 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12274 [Ben Laurie]
12275
12276 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12277 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12278
12279 *) Support Mingw32.
12280 [Ulf Möller]
12281
12282 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12283 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12284
12285 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12286 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12287
12288 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12289 [Ulf Möller]
12290
12291 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12292 [Anonymous]
12293
12294 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12295 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12296
12297 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12298 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12299 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12300 DER-encoded.)
12301 [Bodo Moeller]
12302
12303 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12304 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12305 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12306 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12307 now it really counts the depth.
12308 [Bodo Moeller]
12309
12310 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12311 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12312 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12313 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12314 didn't match the private key).
12315
12316 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12317 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12318 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12319 [Bodo Moeller]
12320
12321 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12322 [Ulf Möller]
12323
12324 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12325 David Harris.
12326 [Bodo Moeller]
12327
12328 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12329 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12330 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12331 [Bodo Moeller]
12332
12333 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12334 [Bodo Moeller]
12335
12336 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12337 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12338 such as /usr/local/bin.
12339 [Bodo Moeller]
12340
12341 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12342 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12343
12344 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12345 [Ulf Möller]
12346
12347 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12348 extension adding in x509 utility.
12349 [Steve Henson]
12350
12351 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12352 [Ulf Möller]
12353
12354 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12355 prototypes.
12356 [Steve Henson]
12357
12358 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12359 [Ulf Möller]
12360
12361 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12362 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12363 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12364 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12365 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12366 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12367 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
12368 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12369 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12370 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12371 [Steve Henson]
12372
12373 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12374 [Bodo Moeller]
12375
12376 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12377 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12378 [Bodo Moeller]
12379
12380 *) Fix some race conditions.
12381 [Bodo Moeller]
12382
12383 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12384 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12385 [Steve Henson]
12386
12387 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12388 [Ulf Möller]
12389
12390 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12391 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12392 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12393 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12394
12395 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12396 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12397
12398 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12399 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12400 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12401
12402 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12403 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12404
12405 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12406 [Ulf Möller]
12407
12408 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12409 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12410
12411 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12412 [Ulf Möller]
12413
12414 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12415 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12416
12417 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12418 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12419 [Steve Henson]
12420
12421 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12422 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12423 [Ben Laurie]
12424
12425 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12426 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12427 [Steve Henson]
12428
12429 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12430 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12431 [Steve Henson]
12432
12433 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12434 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12435 [Steve Henson]
12436
12437 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12438 support typesafe stack.
12439 [Steve Henson]
12440
12441 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12442 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12443
12444 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12445 old X509V3 handling code.
12446 [Steve Henson]
12447
12448 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12449 [Ulf Möller]
12450
12451 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12452 [Bodo Moeller]
12453
12454 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12455 [Ben Laurie]
12456
12457 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12458 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12459
12460 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12461 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12462 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12463 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12464 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12465 [Ben Laurie]
12466
12467 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12468 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12469 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12470 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12471 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12472
12473 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12474 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12475 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12476 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12477
12478 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12479 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12480 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12481 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12482
12483 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12484 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12485 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12486 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12487 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12488 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12489 [Bodo Moeller]
12490
12491 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12492 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12493 [Bodo Moeller]
12494
12495 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12496 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12497 [Ulf Möller]
12498
12499 *) Tweaks to Configure
12500 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12501
12502 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12503 yet...
12504 [Steve Henson]
12505
12506 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12507 [Ulf Möller]
12508
12509 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12510 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12511 [Ulf Möller]
12512
12513 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12514 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12515 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12516 [Bodo Moeller]
12517
12518 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12519 [Bodo Moeller]
12520
12521 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12522 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12523 [Steve Henson]
12524
12525 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12526 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12527 to library startup routines.
12528 [Steve Henson]
12529
12530 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12531 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12532 codes along the way.
12533 [Steve Henson]
12534
12535 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12536 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12537 objects to objects.h
12538 [Steve Henson]
12539
12540 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12541 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12542 [Steve Henson]
12543
12544 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12545 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12546
12547 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12548 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12549 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12550
12551 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12552 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12553 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12554
12555 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12556 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12557 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12558
12559
12560 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
12561
12562 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
12563 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
12564 [Ben Laurie]
12565
12566 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
12567 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
12568 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
12569 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
12570 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
12571
12572 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
12573 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
12574 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
12575 document.
12576 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12577
12578 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
12579 Malloc, Free.
12580 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
12581
12582 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
12583 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12584
12585 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
12586 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
12587 if someone would make that last step automatic.
12588 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
12589
12590 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
12591 [Ben Laurie]
12592
12593 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
12594 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
12595 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
12596 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
12597 [Steve Henson]
12598
12599 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
12600 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
12601 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
12602 [Steve Henson]
12603
12604 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
12605 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
12606 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
12607 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
12608 installed as `perl').
12609 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12610
12611 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
12612 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12613
12614 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
12615 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
12616 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
12617 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
12618 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
12619 [Steve Henson]
12620
12621 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
12622 [Ben Laurie]
12623
12624 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
12625 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
12626 is horrible: I feel ill....
12627 [Steve Henson]
12628
12629 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
12630 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
12631 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
12632 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
12633 [Steve Henson]
12634
12635 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
12636 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12637
12638 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
12639 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
12640 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
12641 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12642
12643 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
12644 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
12645 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
12646 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
12647 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
12648 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
12649 openssl_bio.xs.
12650 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12651
12652 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
12653 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12654
12655 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
12656 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
12657
12658 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
12659 [Ben Laurie]
12660
12661 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
12662 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
12663 in CRLs.
12664 [Steve Henson]
12665
12666 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
12667 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
12668 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
12669 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
12670 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
12671 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
12672 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
12673 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
12674 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
12675 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
12676 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12677
12678 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
12679 [Ben Laurie]
12680
12681 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
12682 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
12683 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
12684 for linking it into DSOs.
12685 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12686
12687 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
12688 Fixed.
12689 [Ben Laurie]
12690
12691 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
12692 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
12693 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
12694 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
12695 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
12696 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12697
12698 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
12699 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
12700 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
12701 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
12702 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
12703 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
12704 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12705
12706 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
12707 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
12708 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
12709 encryption.
12710 [Ben Laurie]
12711
12712 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
12713 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
12714 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
12715 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
12716 [Steve Henson]
12717
12718 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
12719 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
12720 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
12721 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
12722 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
12723 field as blank.
12724 [Steve Henson]
12725
12726 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
12727 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
12728 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
12729 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
12730 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12731
12732 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
12733 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
12734 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12735
12736 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
12737 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12738
12739 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
12740 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
12741 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
12742 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
12743 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
12744 [Steve Henson]
12745
12746 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
12747 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
12748 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
12749 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
12750 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
12751 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
12752 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
12753 [Ben Laurie]
12754
12755 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
12756 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
12757 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
12758 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
12759 [Ben Laurie]
12760
12761 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
12762 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
12763
12764 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
12765 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
12766 [Steve Henson]
12767
12768 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
12769 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
12770 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
12771 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
12772 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
12773 (e.g. s_server).
12774 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
12775 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
12776 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
12777 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
12778 no way to reconfigure them.
12779 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
12780 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
12781 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
12782 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
12783 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
12784 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12785
12786 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
12787 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
12788 recognized by the users.
12789 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12790
12791 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
12792 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
12793 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
12794 already masked variable.
12795 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12796
12797 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
12798 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12799
12800 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
12801 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
12802 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
12803 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12804
12805 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
12806 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
12807 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12808
12809 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
12810 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
12811 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
12812 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
12813 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
12814 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
12815 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
12816 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
12817 now, too.
12818 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12819
12820 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
12821 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
12822 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12823
12824 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
12825 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
12826 config file.
12827 [Steve Henson]
12828
12829 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
12830 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12831
12832 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
12833 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
12834 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
12835 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
12836 [Ben Laurie]
12837
12838 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
12839 [Steve Henson]
12840
12841 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
12842 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12843
12844 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
12845 [Ben Laurie]
12846
12847 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
12848 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
12849 [Steve Henson]
12850
12851 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
12852 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
12853 [Steve Henson]
12854
12855 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
12856 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
12857 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
12858 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
12859 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
12860 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
12861 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
12862 Ben Laurie]
12863
12864 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
12865 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12866
12867 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
12868 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
12869 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
12870 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
12871 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12872
12873 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
12874 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
12875 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
12876 [Steve Henson]
12877
12878 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
12879 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
12880 an example.
12881 [Steve Henson]
12882
12883 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
12884 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
12885 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12886
12887 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
12888 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
12889 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
12890 build instructions.
12891 [Steve Henson]
12892
12893 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
12894 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
12895 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
12896 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
12897 [Steve Henson]
12898
12899 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
12900 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
12901 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
12902 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
12903 [Ben Laurie]
12904
12905 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
12906 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
12907 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
12908 so it wasn't spotted.
12909 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
12910
12911 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
12912 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
12913 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
12914 vectors if you have them.
12915 [Ben Laurie]
12916
12917 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
12918 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
12919 [Ben Laurie]
12920
12921 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
12922 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
12923 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
12924 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
12925 If you do a:
12926 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
12927 it will update them.
12928 [Steve Henson]
12929
12930 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
12931 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
12932 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
12933 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
12934 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
12935 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
12936 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
12937 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12938
12939 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
12940 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
12941 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
12942 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
12943 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
12944 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
12945 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
12946 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
12947 the crypto/md/ stuff).
12948 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12949
12950 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
12951 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
12952 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
12953 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
12954 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
12955 [Steve Henson]
12956
12957 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
12958 INTEGER code.
12959 [Steve Henson]
12960
12961 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
12962 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12963
12964 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
12965 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12966
12967 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
12968 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
12969 [Ben Laurie]
12970
12971 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
12972 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
12973
12974 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
12975 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
12976
12977 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
12978 [Steve Henson]
12979
12980 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
12981 few typos.
12982 [Steve Henson]
12983
12984 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
12985 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
12986 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
12987 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12988
12989 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12990 [Steve Henson]
12991
12992 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12993 [Steve Henson]
12994
12995 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
12996 [Steve Henson]
12997
12998 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
12999 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
13000 [Steve Henson]
13001
13002 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
13003 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
13004 CA extensions.
13005 [Steve Henson]
13006
13007 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
13008 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
13009 [Steve Henson]
13010
13011 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
13012 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
13013 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
13014 [Steve Henson]
13015
13016 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
13017 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
13018 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
13019 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
13020 properly to be processed.
13021 [Steve Henson]
13022
13023 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
13024 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
13025 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
13026 [Ben Laurie]
13027
13028 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
13029 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
13030
13031 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
13032 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
13033 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
13034 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
13035 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
13036 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
13037 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
13038 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
13039 or delete all the .err files.
13040 [Steve Henson]
13041
13042 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
13043 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
13044 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
13045 to regenerate it if needed.
13046 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
13047 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
13048
13049 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
13050 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13051
13052 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
13053 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
13054 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
13055 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
13056 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
13057 [Steve Henson]
13058
13059 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
13060 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13061
13062 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
13063 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13064
13065 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
13066 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
13067 error, but didn't set one).
13068 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13069
13070 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
13071 [Ben Laurie]
13072
13073 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
13074 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
13075 [Steve Henson]
13076
13077 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
13078 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
13079
13080 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
13081 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
13082 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
13083 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
13084 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
13085 OID is not part of the table.
13086 [Steve Henson]
13087
13088 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
13089 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
13090 [Ben Laurie]
13091
13092 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
13093 [Ben Laurie]
13094
13095 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
13096 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
13097 was "1234").
13098 [Steve Henson]
13099
13100 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
13101 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
13102
13103 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
13104 NULL pointers.
13105 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13106
13107 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
13108 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13109
13110 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
13111 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13112
13113 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
13114 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13115
13116 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
13117 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
13118 [Ben Laurie]
13119
13120 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
13121 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
13122 [Steve Henson]
13123
13124 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
13125 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13126
13127 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
13128 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13129
13130 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
13131 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13132
13133 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
13134 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13135
13136 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
13137 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
13138 unused in the certificate verification process.
13139 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13140
13141 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
13142 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
13143 [Steve Henson]
13144
13145 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
13146 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
13147 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
13148
13149 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
13150 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
13151 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
13152 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
13153 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
13154
13155 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
13156 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
13157 [Steve Henson]
13158
13159 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
13160 [Steve Henson]
13161
13162 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
13163 [Paul Sutton]
13164
13165 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
13166 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
13167
13168 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
13169 [Ben Laurie]
13170
13171 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
13172 [Ben Laurie]
13173
13174 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
13175 [Ben Laurie]
13176
13177 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
13178 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
13179 other error libraries.
13180 [Steve Henson]
13181
13182 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
13183 [Steve Henson]
13184
13185 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
13186 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
13187 be read in.
13188 [Steve Henson]
13189
13190 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
13191 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
13192 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
13193 the new set of documentation files.
13194 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13195
13196 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
13197 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
13198 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
13199 number of arguments.
13200 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
13201
13202 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
13203 [Ben Laurie]
13204
13205 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
13206 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
13207 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13208
13209 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
13210 [Ben Laurie]
13211
13212 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
13213 nextstep
13214 ncr-scde
13215 unixware-2.0
13216 unixware-2.0-pentium
13217 sco5-cc.
13218 [Ben Laurie]
13219
13220 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
13221 before they are needed.
13222 [Ben Laurie]
13223
13224 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
13225 [Ben Laurie]
13226
13227
13228 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
13229
13230 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
13231 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
13232 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13233
13234 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
13235 [Paul Sutton]
13236
13237 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
13238 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
13239 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13240
13241 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
13242 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
13243 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
13244
13245 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
13246 when "ssleay" is still not found.
13247 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13248
13249 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
13250 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
13251
13252 *) Updated the README file.
13253 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13254
13255 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
13256 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
13257 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13258
13259 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
13260 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
13261 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13262
13263 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
13264 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
13265 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
13266 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
13267 o removed obsolete TODO file
13268 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
13269 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13270
13271 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
13272 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
13273 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
13274 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
13275 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
13276 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
13277 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13278
13279 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
13280 [Mark J. Cox]
13281
13282 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
13283 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
13284 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
13285 summer 1998.
13286 [The OpenSSL Project]
13287
13288
13289 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
13290
13291 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
