5 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) VMS fixes:
8 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
9 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
10 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
11 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
12
13 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
14
15 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
16 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
17 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
18 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
19 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
20 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
21 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
22 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
23
24 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
25 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
26 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
27
28 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
29
30 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
31 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
32
33 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
34 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
35 [Bodo Moeller]
36
37 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
38 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
39 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
40 [Steve Henson]
41
42 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
43 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
44 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
45 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
46 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
47 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
48 [Steve Henson]
49
50 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
51 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
52 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
53 [Steve Henson]
54
55 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
56 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
57 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
58 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
59 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
60 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
61 CVE-2009-4355.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
64 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
65 change when encrypting or decrypting.
66 [Bodo Moeller]
67
68 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
69 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
70 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
71 [Steve Henson]
72
73 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
74 [Steve Henson]
75
76 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
77 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
78 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
79 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
80 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
81 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
82 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
83 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
84 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
85 [Steve Henson]
86
87 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
88 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
89 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
90 [Steve Henson]
91
92 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
93 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
94 [Steve Henson]
95
96 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
97 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
98 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
99 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
100 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
101 know what you are doing.
102 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
103
104 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
105 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
106 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
107 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
108 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
109 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
110 the handshake.
111 [Steve Henson]
112
113 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
114 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
115 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
116 correctly.
117 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
118
119 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
120 warnings in other configurations.
121 [Steve Henson]
122
123 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
124 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
125 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
126 systems need.
127 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
128
129 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
130 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
131 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
132
133 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
134 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
135 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
136 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
137 [Steve Henson]
138
139 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
140 and restored.
141 [Steve Henson]
142
143 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
144 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
145 clash.
146 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
147
148 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
149 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
150 other than a simple chain.
151 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
152
153 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
154 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
155 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
156 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
157 [Steve Henson]
158
159 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
160 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
161 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
162 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
163 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
164 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
165 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
166 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
167 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
168
169 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
170 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
171 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
172 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
173 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
174 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
175 (CVE-2009-1377)
176 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
177
178 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
179 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
180 [Daniel Mentz]
181
182 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
183 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
184
185 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
186 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
187
188 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
189
190 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
191 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
192 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
193 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
194 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
195 you're doing.
196 [Ben Laurie]
197
198 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
199
200 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
201 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
202 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
203 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
204
205 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
206 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
207 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
208 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
209
210 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
211 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
212 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
213 [Steve Henson]
214
215 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
216 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
217 level.
218 [Steve Henson]
219
220 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
221 to handle some structures.
222 [Steve Henson]
223
224 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
225 for a '\n'
226 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
227
228 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
229 [Matthieu Herrb]
230
231 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
232 [Steve Henson]
233
234 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
235 [Steve Henson]
236
237 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
238 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
239 chosen compiler.
240 [Ben Laurie]
241
242 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
243
244 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
245 (CVE-2008-5077).
246 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
247
248 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
249 [Ben Laurie]
250
251 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
252 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
253 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
254 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
255
256 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
257 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
258
259 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
260 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
261 [Bodo Moeller]
262
263 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
264 s_client and s_server.
265 [Ben Laurie]
266
267 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
268 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
269
270 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
271 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
272
273 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
274 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
275 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
276 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
277 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
278 [Bodo Moeller]
279
280 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
281
282 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
283 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
284 [PR #1679]
285
286 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
287 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
288 [Nagendra Modadugu]
289
290 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
291 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
292 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
293 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
294
295 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
296 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
297
298 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
299
300 *) Various precautionary measures:
301
302 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
303
304 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
305 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
306 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
307
308 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
309 outside the expected range.
310
311 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
312 builds.
313
314 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
315
316 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
317 the load fails. Useful for distros.
318 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
319
320 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
321 [Steve Henson]
322
323 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
324 [Huang Ying]
325
326 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
327
328 This work was sponsored by Logica.
329 [Steve Henson]
330
331 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
332 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
333 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
334
335 This work was sponsored by Logica.
336 [Steve Henson]
337
338 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
339 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
340 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
341 files.
342 [Steve Henson]
343
344 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
345
346 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
347 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
348 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
349 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
350
351 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
352 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
353 [Joe Orton]
354
355 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
356
357 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
358 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
359 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
360
361 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
362
363 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
364 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
365 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
366 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
367 [Lutz Jaenicke]
368
369 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
370 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
371 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
372 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
373 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
374 invalid read after the end of 'db').
375 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
376
377 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
378
379 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
380 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
381 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
382 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
383 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
384
385 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
386 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
387
388 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
389 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
390 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
391 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
392 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
393
394 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
395
396 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
397 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
398 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
399 sets may exist with different names.
400 [Steve Henson]
401
402 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
403 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
404 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
405 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
406 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
407 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
408 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
409 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
410 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
411 implementation.
412 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
413
414 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
415 implemention in the following ways:
416
417 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
418 hard coded.
419
420 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
421 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
422 ignored for embedded content.
423
424 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
425 with the enable-cms configuration option.
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
429 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
430 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
431 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
432
433 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
434 uncompresses any data passed through it.
435 [Steve Henson]
436
437 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
438 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
439 [Steve Henson]
440
441 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
442 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
443 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
444 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
445 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
446 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
447 data.
448 [Steve Henson]
449
450 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
451 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
452 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
453
454 *) Netware support:
455
456 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
457 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
458 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
459 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
460 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
461 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
462 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
463 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
464 platform
465 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
466 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
467 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
468 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
469 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
470 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
471 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
472
473 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
474 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
475 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
476 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
477 to s_client and s_server.
478 [Steve Henson]
479
480 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
481
482 *) Fix various bugs:
483 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
484 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
485 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
486 + Fix ia64 assembler code
487 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
488
489 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
490
491 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
492 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
493 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
494 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
495 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
496 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
497 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
498 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
499 [Andy Polyakov]
500
501 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
502 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
503 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
504 Steve Henson]
505
506 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
507 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
508 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
509 supported.
510
511 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
512 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
513 SSL_SESSION.
514
515 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
516 protection in servers so again support should be possible
517 with no application modification.
518
519 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
520 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
521
522 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
523 or server extensions to be examined.
524
525 This work was sponsored by Google.
526 [Steve Henson]
527
528 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
529 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
530 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
531 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
532 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
533 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
534 server_name extension.
535
536 New functions (subject to change):
537
538 SSL_get_servername()
539 SSL_get_servername_type()
540 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
541
542 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
543
544 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
545 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
546 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
547 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
548 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
549
550 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
551
552 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
553 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
554 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
555 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
556 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
557 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
558 option.
559
560 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
561
562 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
563 [Steve Henson]
564
565 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
566 [Andy Polyakov]
567
568 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
569 (which previously caused an internal error).
570 [Bodo Moeller]
571
572 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
573 [Ben Laurie]
574
575 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
576 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
577
578 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
579 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
580 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
581
582 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
583 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
584 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
585 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
586
587 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
588 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
589 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
590 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
591
592 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
593 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
594 information. For detailed background information, see
595 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
596 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
597 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
598 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
599 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
600 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
601 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
602 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
603 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
604 remove a conditional branch.
605
606 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
607 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
608 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
609 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
610 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
611 remains as a deprecated alias.
612
613 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
614 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
615 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
616 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
617
618 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
619 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
620 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
621 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
622 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
623 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
624 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
625 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
626
627 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
628
629 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
630 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
631 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
632 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
633 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
634 with applications using a single external cache for quite
635 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
636 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
637 in a different context.
638 [Bodo Moeller]
639
640 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
641 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
642 authentication-only ciphersuites.
643 [Bodo Moeller]
644
645 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
646 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
647 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
648
649 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
650
651 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
652 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
653 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
654 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
655 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
656 [Victor Duchovni]
657
658 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
659 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
660 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
661 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
662 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
663 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
664 [Bodo Moeller]
665
666 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
667 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
668 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
669 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
670 message has informed the client about his choice.)
671 [Bodo Moeller]
672
673 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
674 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
675
676 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
677 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
678 Improve header file function name parsing.
679 [Steve Henson]
680
681 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
682 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
683 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
684
685 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
686
687 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
688 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
689 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
690
691 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
692 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
693
694 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
695 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
696
697 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
698 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
699 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
700
701 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
702 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
703 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
704 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
705 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
706 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
707 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
708 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
709 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
710
711 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
712 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
713 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
714 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
715 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
716
717 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
718 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
719 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
720 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
721 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
722 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
723 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
724 multiple values to extend the available space.
725
726 [Bodo Moeller]
727
728 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
729
730 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
731 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
732
733 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
734 [Ben Laurie]
735
736 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
737 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
738 undesirable limitations.
739 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
740
741 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
742 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
743 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
744 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
745 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
746 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
747 to avoid potential handshake problems.
748 [Bodo Moeller]
749
750 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
751
752 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
753 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
754 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
755
756 The latter two were purportedly from
757 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
758 appear there.
759
760 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
761 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
762 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
763 [Bodo Moeller]
764
765 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
766 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
767 [Bodo Moeller]
768
769 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
770 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
771 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
772 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
773
774 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
775 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
776 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
777 [NTT]
778
779 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
780 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
781 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
782 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
783 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
784 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
785 [Steve Henson]
786
787 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
788
789 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
790 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
791 [Steve Henson]
792
793 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
794 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
795
796 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
797 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
798 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
799 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
800 [Douglas Stebila]
801
802 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
803 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
804 [Steve Henson]
805
806 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
807 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
808 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
809 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
810 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
811 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
812 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
813 can't be loaded.
814 [Steve Henson]
815
816 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
817 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
818 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
819 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
820 [Steve Henson]
821
822 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
823 under VC++ build system.
824 [Steve Henson]
825
826 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
827 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
828 [Richard Levitte]
829
830 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
831
832 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
833 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
834 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
835 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
836 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
837
838 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
839 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
840 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
841
842 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
843 [Steve Henson]
844
845 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
846 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
847 [Nils Larsch]
848
849 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
850 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
851
852 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
853 [Nick Mathewson]
854
855 *) Extended Windows CE support.
856 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
857
858 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
859 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
860 [Steve Henson]
861
862 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
863 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
864 smime utility.
865 [Steve Henson]
866
867 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
868
869 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
870 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
871
872 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
873 [Richard Levitte]
874
875 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
876 key into the same file any more.
877 [Richard Levitte]
878
879 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
880 [Andy Polyakov]
881
882 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
883 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
884
885 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
886 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
887 [Richard Levitte]
888
889 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
890 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
891 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
892 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
893 this only applies when building 'shared'.
894 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
895
896 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
897 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
898 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
899 [Steve Henson]
900
901 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
902 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
903 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
904 - add new function for parameter creation
905 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
906 BN_BLINDING parameters
907 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
908 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
909 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
910 threads.
911 [Nils Larsch]
912
913 *) Add support for DTLS.
914 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
915
916 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
917 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
918 [Walter Goulet]
919
920 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
921 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
922 [Nils Larsch]
923
924 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
925 the apps/openssl applications.
926 [Nils Larsch]
927
928 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
929 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
930 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
931 [Ben Laurie]
932
933 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
934 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
935
936 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
937 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
938
939 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
940 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
941 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
942 avoid this algorithm.)
943
944 [Bodo Moeller]
945
946 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
947 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
948 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
949 [Richard Levitte]
950
951 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
952 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
953 [Andy Polyakov]
954
955 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
956 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
957 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
958 pod file:
959
960 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
961
962 The blank line is mandatory.
963
964 [Steve Henson]
965
966 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
967 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
968 sources.
969 [Steve Henson]
970
971 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
972 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
973
974 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
975 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
976 to support policy checking and print out.
977 [Steve Henson]
978
979 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
980 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
981 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
982 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
983
984 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
985 [Geoff Thorpe]
986
987 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
988 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
989
990 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
991 implementation contributed by IBM.
992 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
993
994 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
995 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
996 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
997 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
998
999 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
1000 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
1001
1002 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
1003 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
1004 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
1005 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
1006 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
1007 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
1008 [Steve Henson]
1009
1010 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
1011 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
1012 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
1013 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
1014 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
1015 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
1016 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
1017 [Geoff Thorpe]
1018
1019 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
1020 [Steve Henson]
1021
1022 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
1023 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
1024 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
1025 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
1026 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
1027 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
1028 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
1029 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
1030 [Steve Henson]
1031
1032 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
1033 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
1034 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
1035 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
1036 [Steve Henson]
1037
1038 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
1039 syntax:
1040
1041 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
1042 [Steve Henson]
1043
1044 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
1045 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
1046 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
1047 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
1048 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
1049 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
1050 BN_CTX's "bundling".
1051 [Geoff Thorpe]
1052
1053 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
1054 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
1055 [Geoff Thorpe]
1056
1057 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
1058 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
1059 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
1060 [Steve Henson]
1061
1062 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
1063 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
1064 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
1065 below).
1066 [Geoff Thorpe]
1067
1068 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
1069 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
1070 [Richard Levitte]
1071
1072 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
1073 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
1074 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
1075 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
1076 [Geoff Thorpe]
1077
1078 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
1079 initialised value as BN_new().
1080 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
1081
1082 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
1083 [Steve Henson]
1084
1085 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
1086 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
1087 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
1088 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
1089 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
1090 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
1091 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
1092 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
1093 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
1094 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
1095 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
1096 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
1097 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
1098 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
1099 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
1100
1101 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
1102 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
1103 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
1104 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
1105 [Geoff Thorpe]
1106
1107 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
1108 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
1109 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
1110 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
1111 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
1112 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
1113 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
1114 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
1115 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
1116 [Geoff Thorpe]
1117
1118 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
1119 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
1120 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
1121 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
1122 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
1123 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
1124 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
1125 [Geoff Thorpe]
1126
1127 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
1128 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
1129 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
1130 these have been updated also.
1131 [Geoff Thorpe]
1132
1133 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
1134 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
1135 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
1136 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
1137 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
1138 functions.
1139 [Steve Henson]
1140
1141 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
1142 structure of type "other".
1143 [Steve Henson]
1144
1145 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
1146 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
1147 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
1148 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
1149 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
1150 situation in the script.
1151 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1152
1153 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1154 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
1155 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
1156 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
1157 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
1158 used as premaster secret.
1159 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1160
1161 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
1162 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
1163 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1164
1165 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
1166 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
1167
1168 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
1169 control of the error stack.
1170 [Richard Levitte]
1171
1172 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
1173 [Richard Levitte]
1174
1175 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
1176 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
1177 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
1178 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
1179 [Richard Levitte]
1180
1181 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
1182 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
1183 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
1184 [Richard Levitte]
1185
1186 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
1187 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
1188 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
1189 a memory area.
1190 [Richard Levitte]
1191
1192 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
1193 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
1194 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
1195 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
1196 [Richard Levitte]
1197
1198 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
1199 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
1200 the following flags are defined:
1201
1202 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
1203 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1204 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
1205 number.
1206
1207 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
1208 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1209 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
1210 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
1211 returns zero.
1212 [Richard Levitte]
1213
1214 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
1215 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
1216 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
1217 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
1218 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
1219 [Richard Levitte]
1220
1221 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
1222 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
1223 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
1224 [Richard Levitte]
1225
1226 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1227 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1228 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1229 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1230 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1231 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1232 [Richard Levitte]
1233
1234 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
1235 req and dirName.
1236 [Steve Henson]
1237
1238 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
1239 [Steve Henson]
1240
1241 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
1242 [Steve Henson]
1243
1244 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1245 [Steve Henson]
1246
1247 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1248 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1249 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1250 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1251 default implementation more easily.
1252 [Geoff Thorpe]
1253
1254 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1255 in config files.
1256 [Steve Henson]
1257
1258 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
1259 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
1260 [Richard Levitte]
1261
1262 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1263 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1264 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1265 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1266
1267 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
1268 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1269 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1270 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1271 [Steve Henson]
1272
1273 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1274 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1275 to do it.
1276 [Richard Levitte]
1277
1278 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
1279 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
1280 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
1281 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
1282 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
1283 scalar * generator).
1284 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1285
1286 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1287 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1288 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1289 correctly.
1290 [Steve Henson]
1291
1292 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1293 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1294 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1295 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
1296 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
1297 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
1298 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
1299 linker additions, eg;
1300 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
1301 [Geoff Thorpe]
1302
1303 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
1304 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
1305 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
1306 [Geoff Thorpe]
1307
1308 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1309 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1310 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
1311 via PR#459)
1312 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1313
1314 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
1315 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
1316 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
1317 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
1318 [Geoff Thorpe]
1319
1320 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
1321 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
1322 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
1323 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
1324 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
1325 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
1326 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
1327 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
1328 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
1329 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
1330
1331 Example for using the new callback interface:
1332
1333 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
1334 void *my_arg = ...;
1335 BN_GENCB my_cb;
1336
1337 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
1338
1339 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
1340 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
1341 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
1342 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
1343 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
1344 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
1345 */
1346
1347 [Geoff Thorpe]
1348
1349 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
1350 available to TLS with the number defined in
1351 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
1352 [Richard Levitte]
1353
1354 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
1355 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
1356
1357 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
1358 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1359 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1360 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
1361
1362 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
1363 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
1364
1365 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
1366 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
1367 well.
1368 [Richard Levitte]
1369
1370 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
1371 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
1372 [Richard Levitte]
1373
1374 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
1375 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
1376 and a macro that behave like
1377 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
1378
1379 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
1380 [Nils Larsch]
1381
1382 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
1383 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
1384 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
1385 if applicable.
1386 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1387
1388 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
1389 [Bodo Moeller]
1390
1391 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
1392 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
1393 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
1394 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
1395 directory engines/.
1396 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
1397 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
1398 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
1399 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
1400 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
1401 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
1402 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
1403 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
1404
1405 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
1406 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
1407 [Richard Levitte]
1408
1409 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
1410 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
1411
1412 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
1413 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
1414 files while avoiding the low level API.
1415
1416 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
1417 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
1418 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
1419 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
1420
1421 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
1422 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
1423 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
1424 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
1425 instead of the low level API.
1426 [Steve Henson]
1427
1428 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
1429 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
1430 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
1431 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
1432 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
1433 PKCS#7 code.
1434
1435 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
1436 down to the template encoder.
1437 [Steve Henson]
1438
1439 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
1440 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
1441 [Bodo Moeller]
1442
1443 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
1444 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
1445 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
1446 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1447
1448 *) Add ECDH engine support.
1449 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1450
1451 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
1452 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1453
1454 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
1455 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
1456 [Bodo Moeller]
1457
1458 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
1459 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
1460 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
1461 [Bodo Moeller]
1462
1463 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
1464 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
1465
1466 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1467 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1468
1469 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
1470 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
1471 New EC_METHOD:
1472
1473 EC_GF2m_simple_method
1474
1475 New API functions:
1476
1477 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
1478 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
1479 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
1480 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1481 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1482 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
1483
1484 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
1485 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
1486 enable it).
1487
1488 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
1489 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
1490 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
1491 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
1492 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
1493 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
1494 various internal method names.)
1495
1496 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
1497 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
1498
1499 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1500 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1501
1502 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
1503 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
1504
1505 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
1506 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
1507 methods are undefined.
1508
1509 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1510 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1511
1512 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
1513 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
1514 length of the modulus.
1515
1516 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1517 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1518
1519 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
1520 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
1521
1522 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1523 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1524
1525 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
1526 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
1527 used) in the following functions [macros]:
1528
1529 BN_GF2m_add
1530 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
1531 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
1532 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
1533 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
1534 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
1535 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
1536 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
1537 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
1538 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
1539
1540 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
1541 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
1542
1543 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
1544 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
1545 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
1546 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
1547 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
1548 where
1549 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
1550 This applies to the following functions:
1551
1552 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
1553 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
1554 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
1555 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
1556 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
1557 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
1558 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
1559 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
1560 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1561 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1562
1563 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
1564
1565 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1566 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1567
1568 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
1569
1570 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
1571 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
1572 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
1573 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
1574 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
1575
1576 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1577 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1578
1579 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
1580 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
1581 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
1582
1583 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
1584 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
1585
1586 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
1587 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
1588 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
1589 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
1590 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1591
1592 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
1593 functions
1594 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
1595 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
1596 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
1597 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
1598 These control ASN1 encoding details:
1599 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
1600 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
1601 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
1602 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
1603 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
1604 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
1605 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
1606
1607 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
1608 functions
1609 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
1610 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
1611 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
1612 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
1613 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1614
1615 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
1616 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
1617 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
1618 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1619
1620 *) Add functions
1621 EC_POINT_point2bn()
1622 EC_POINT_bn2point()
1623 EC_POINT_point2hex()
1624 EC_POINT_hex2point()
1625 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
1626 EC_POINT_oct2point().
1627 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1628
1629 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
1630 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
1631 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
1632 EC_GROUP_get_order()
1633 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
1634 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
1635 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
1636 adding different types of curves.
1637 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
1638
1639 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
1640 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
1641 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
1642 [Bodo Moeller]
1643
1644 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
1645 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
1646
1647 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
1648 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
1649 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
1650 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1651
1652 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
1653
1654 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
1655 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
1656
1657 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
1658 library. Most notably,
1659 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
1660 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
1661 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
1662 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
1663 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
1664 extracted before the specific public key;
1665 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
1666 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1667
1668 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
1669 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
1670 function
1671 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
1672 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
1673 EC_get_builtin_curves().
1674 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
1675 accessed via
1676 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
1677 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
1678 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
1679
1680 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1681 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1682 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1683 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1684 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1685 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1686 differing sizes.
1687 [Richard Levitte]
1688
1689 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
1690
1691 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
1692 sensitive data.
1693 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
1694
1695 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
1696 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
1697 authentication-only ciphersuites.
1698 [Bodo Moeller]
1699
1700 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
1701 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
1702 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
1703 [Victor Duchovni]
1704
1705 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
1706 [Steve Henson]
1707
1708 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
1709 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
1710 [Steve Henson]
1711
1712 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
1713 run algorithm test programs.
1714 [Steve Henson]
1715
1716 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
1717 [Steve Henson]
1718
1719 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
1720 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
1721 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
1722 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
1723 message has informed the client about his choice.)
1724 [Bodo Moeller]
1725
1726 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
1727 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
1728 [Steve Henson]
1729
1730 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
1731
1732 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
1733 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
1734 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1735
1736 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
1737 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
1738
1739 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
1740 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1741
1742 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
1743 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
1744 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1745
1746 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
1747 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
1748 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
1749 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
1750 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
1751 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
1752 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
1753 [Bodo Moeller]
1754
1755 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
1756
1757 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
1758 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
1759
1760 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
1761 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
1762 undesirable limitations.
1763 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
1764
1765 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
1766
1767 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
1768 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
1769 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
1770
1771 The latter two were purportedly from
1772 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
1773 appear there.
1774
1775 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
1776 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
1777 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
1778 [Bodo Moeller]
1779
1780 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
1781 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
1782 [Bodo Moeller]
1783
1784 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
1785
1786 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
1787 module in FIPS mode.
1788 [Steve Henson]
1789
1790 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
1791 [Steve Henson]
1792
1793 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
1794 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
1795 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
1796 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
1797 [Steve Henson]
1798
1799 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
1800
1801 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
1802 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
1803 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
1804 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
1805 the difference induced by this change.
1806 [Andy Polyakov]
1807
1808 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
1809
1810 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
1811 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
1812 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
1813 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
1814 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
1815
1816 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
1817 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
1818 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
1819
1820 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
1821 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
1822 [Steve Henson]
1823
1824 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
1825 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
1826 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
1827 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
1828 biased k.)
1829 [Bodo Moeller]
1830
1831 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
1832 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
1833 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
1834 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
1835 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
1836
1837 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
1838 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
1839 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
1840 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
1841 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
1842 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
1843
1844 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
1845
1846 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
1847 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
1848 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
1849 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
1850 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
1851 [Bodo Moeller]
1852
1853 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
1854 clients need.
1855 [Steve Henson]
1856
1857 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
1858 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
1859 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
1860 [Steve Henson]
1861
1862 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
1863 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
1864 structures constant.
1865 [Steve Henson]
1866
1867 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
1868
1869 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
1870 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
1871
1872 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
1873 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
1874 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
1875 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
1876 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
1877 some needed definitions.
1878 [Steve Henson]
1879
1880 *) Undo Cygwin change.
1881 [Ulf Möller]
1882
1883 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
1884 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
1885 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
1886 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
1887 [Richard Levitte]
1888
1889 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
1890
1891 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
1892 server and client random values. Previously
1893 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
1894 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
1895
1896 This change has negligible security impact because:
1897
1898 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
1899 data.
1900
1901 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
1902 handshake.
1903
1904 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
1905 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
1906 values.
1907
1908 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
1909 to our attention.
1910
1911 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
1912
1913 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
1914 [Ulf Möller]
1915
1916 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
1917 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
1918 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
1919
1920 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
1921 [Steve Henson]
1922
1923 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
1924 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
1925 [Andy Polyakov]
1926
1927 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
1928 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
1929 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
1930
1931 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
1932 [Steve Henson]
1933
1934 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
1935 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
1936 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
1937 certificates.
1938 [Steve Henson]
1939
1940 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
1941 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
1942 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
1943 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
1944
1945 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
1946 has chosen to ignore this fault)
1947 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
1948 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
1949 been given)
1950 [Richard Levitte]
1951
1952 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
1953
1954 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
1955 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
1956 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
1957 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
1958 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
1959 [Steve Henson]
1960
1961 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
1962 [Steve Henson]
1963
1964 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
1965 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
1966
1967 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
1968 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
1969 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
1970 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
1971 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
1972 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
1973 rather than being initialized to 1.
1974 [Steve Henson]
1975
1976 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
1977
1978 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
1979 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
1980 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
1981
1982 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
1983 (CVE-2004-0112)
1984 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
1985
1986 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1987 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1988 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1989 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1990 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1991 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1992 [Richard Levitte]
1993
1994 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
1995 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
1996 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
1997 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
1998 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
1999 for these cases.
2000 [Steve Henson]
2001
2002 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
2003 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
2004 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
2005 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
2006 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
2007 [Steve Henson]
2008
2009 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
2010 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
2011 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
2012 < 0.9.7.
2013 [Steve Henson]
2014
2015 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
2016 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2017
2018 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
2019 [Steve Henson]
2020
2021 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
2022
2023 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
2024
2025 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
2026 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
2027
2028 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
2029
2030 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
2031 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
2032
2033 [Steve Henson]
2034
2035 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
2036 exiting on the first error in a request.
2037 [Steve Henson]
2038
2039 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
2040 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
2041 specifications.
2042 [Steve Henson]
2043
2044 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
2045 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
2046 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
2047 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
2048
2049 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
2050 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
2051 [Richard Levitte]
2052
2053 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
2054 blocks during encryption.
2055 [Richard Levitte]
2056
2057 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
2058 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
2059 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
2060 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
2061 certain size.
2062 [Steve Henson]
2063
2064 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
2065 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
2066 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
2067 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
2068 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
2069 parser.
2070 [Steve Henson]
2071
2072 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
2073
2074 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
2075 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
2076 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
2077 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
2078 [Bodo Moeller]
2079
2080 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
2081 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
2082 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
2083 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
2084 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2085
2086 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
2087 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
2088 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
2089 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
2090 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
2091 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
2092 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
2093 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
2094 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
2095 [Bodo Moeller]
2096
2097 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
2098 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
2099 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
2100 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
2101 [Geoff Thorpe]
2102
2103 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
2104 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
2105 [Ulf Moeller]
2106
2107 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
2108
2109 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
2110 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
2111 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
2112 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
2113 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
2114
2115 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
2116 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
2117 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
2118
2119 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
2120 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
2121 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
2122 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
2123 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
2124
2125 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
2126 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
2127 used by default when no-err is given.
2128 [Richard Levitte]
2129
2130 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
2131 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
2132
2133 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
2134 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
2135 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
2136 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
2137 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
2138
2139 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
2140 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
2141 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
2142 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
2143
2144 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
2145
2146 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
2147
2148 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
2149
2150 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
2151 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
2152 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
2153 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
2154 root is omitted).
2155 [Steve Henson]
2156
2157 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
2158 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2159
2160 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
2161 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
2162 [Steve Henson]
2163
2164 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
2165 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
2166 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
2167 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
2168 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2169
2170 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
2171 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
2172 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
2173 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
2174 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
2175 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2176 followup to PR #377.
2177 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2178
2179 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
2180 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
2181 [Andy Polyakov]
2182
2183 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
2184 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
2185 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
2186 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
2187
2188 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
2189
2190 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
2191 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
2192
2193 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
2194 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
2195 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
2196 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
2197 client and server.
2198 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2199 PR #377.
2200 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2201
2202 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
2203 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
2204 removed entirely.
2205 [Richard Levitte]
2206
2207 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
2208 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
2209 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
2210 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
2211 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
2212 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
2213 of libcrypto.
2214 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
2215 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
2216 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
2217 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
2218 have to be made anyway).
2219 [Richard Levitte]
2220
2221 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
2222 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
2223 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
2224 [Steve Henson]
2225
2226 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
2227 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
2228 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
2229 [Richard Levitte]
2230
2231 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
2232 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
2233 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2234
2235 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
2236 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
2237 edit numbers of the version.
2238 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
2239
2240 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
2241 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
2242 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
2243
2244 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
2245 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2246
2247 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2248 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2249 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2250
2251 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
2252 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2253
2254 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
2255 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2256
2257 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
2258 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2259
2260 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
2261 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2262
2263 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
2264 overflows.
2265 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2266
2267 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
2268 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
2269 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2270
2271 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
2272 representations in a platform independent manner.
2273 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2274
2275 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2276 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2277 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2278
2279 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
2280 indents.
2281 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2282
2283 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
2284 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2285
2286 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
2287 full. Fixed.
2288 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2289
2290 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
2291 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
2292 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2293
2294 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
2295 unconditionally).
2296 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2297
2298 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
2299 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2300
2301 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
2302 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2303
2304 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
2305 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2306
2307 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
2308 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2309
2310 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
2311 CBCParameter.
2312 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2313
2314 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
2315 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2316
2317 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
2318 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2319
2320 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
2321 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
2322 exploitable.
2323 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2324
2325 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
2326 the 0.9.6 release series:
2327
2328 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
2329 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
2330 (CVE-2002-0657)
2331 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2332
2333 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
2334 [Richard Levitte]
2335
2336 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
2337 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
2338
2339 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
2340 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
2341
2342 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
2343 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
2344 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
2345 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
2346
2347 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
2348 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
2349 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
2350
2351 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
2352 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
2353 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
2354 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
2355
2356 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
2357 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
2358 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
2359 some local tweaks:
2360
2361 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
2362 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
2363 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
2364 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2365 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2366 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
2367 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
2368 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
2369 done
2370
2371 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
2372 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
2373 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
2374 [Richard Levitte]
2375
2376 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
2377 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
2378 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
2379 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
2380 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
2381
2382 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
2383 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
2384
2385 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
2386 error in AES-CFB decryption.
2387 [Richard Levitte]
2388
2389 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
2390 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
2391 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
2392 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
2393 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
2394 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
2395 [Steve Henson]
2396
2397 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
2398 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
2399 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
2400 [Steve Henson]
2401
2402 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
2403 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
2404 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2405
2406 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
2407 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
2408 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
2409 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
2410 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
2411 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
2412 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
2413 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2414
2415 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
2416 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
2417 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
2418 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
2419 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
2420 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
2421 [Steve Henson]
2422
2423 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
2424 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
2425 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
2426 declaration has been changed from
2427 int (*cb)()
2428 into
2429 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
2430 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
2431 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
2432 has been changed into
2433 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
2434
2435 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
2436 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
2437 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
2438
2439 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
2440 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
2441
2442 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
2443 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
2444 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
2445 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
2446 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
2447 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
2448 always load it have also been added.
2449 [Steve Henson]
2450
2451 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
2452 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
2453 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2454
2455 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
2456
2457 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
2458 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
2459 because it couldn't be used for anything.
2460
2461 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
2462 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
2463 command line option can be used to specify an
2464 alternative file.
2465 [Steve Henson]
2466
2467 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
2468 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
2469 [Steve Henson]
2470
2471 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
2472 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
2473 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
2474 [Steve Henson]
2475
2476 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
2477 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
2478 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
2479 to work with the new engine framework.
2480 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
2481
2482 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
2483 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
2484 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
2485 to work with the new engine framework.
2486 [Richard Levitte]
2487
2488 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
2489 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
2490 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
2491
2492 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
2493 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
2494
2495 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
2496 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
2497 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
2498 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
2499 FORMAT_IISSGC.
2500 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2501
2502 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
2503 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2504
2505 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
2506 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
2507
2508 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
2509 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
2510 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
2511 [Ben Laurie]
2512
2513 *) Add new functions
2514 ERR_peek_last_error
2515 ERR_peek_last_error_line
2516 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
2517 These are similar to
2518 ERR_peek_error
2519 ERR_peek_error_line
2520 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
2521 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
2522 still in the error queue.
2523 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
2524
2525 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
2526 like:
2527 default_algorithms = ALL
2528 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
2529 [Steve Henson]
2530
2531 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
2532 [Steve Henson]
2533
2534 *) New experimental application configuration code.
2535 [Steve Henson]
2536
2537 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
2538 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
2539 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
2540 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2541
2542 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
2543 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
2544
2545 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
2546 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
2547
2548 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
2549 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
2550 [Bodo Moeller]
2551
2552 *) New functions/macros
2553
2554 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
2555 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2556 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
2557 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
2558
2559 to request calling a callback function
2560
2561 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
2562 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
2563
2564 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
2565 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
2566 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
2567 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
2568 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
2569 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
2570 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
2571 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
2572 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
2573 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
2574
2575 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
2576 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
2577 [Bodo Moeller]
2578
2579 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
2580 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
2581 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
2582 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
2583 the configuration scripts.
2584
2585 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
2586 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
2587 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
2588
2589 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
2590 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2591
2592 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
2593 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
2594 when reusing an existing buffer.
2595 [Bodo Moeller]
2596
2597 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
2598 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
2599 [Steve Henson]
2600
2601 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
2602 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
2603 [Ben Laurie]
2604
2605 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
2606 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
2607 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
2608 has the same effect.
2609 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
2610
2611 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
2612 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
2613 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
2614 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
2615 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
2616 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
2617 exception.
2618
2619 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
2620 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
2621 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
2622 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
2623
2624 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
2625 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
2626 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
2627 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
2628
2629 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
2630 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
2631 won't work.
2632
2633 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
2634 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
2635 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
2636 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
2637 default), and then completely removed.
2638 [Richard Levitte]
2639
2640 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
2641 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
2642 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
2643 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
2644 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
2645 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
2646 particular extension is supported.
2647 [Steve Henson]
2648
2649 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
2650 to retain compatibility with existing code.
2651 [Steve Henson]
2652
2653 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
2654 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
2655 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
2656 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
2657 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
2658 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
2659 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
2660 requires the destination to be valid.
2661
2662 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
2663 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
2664 [Steve Henson]
2665
2666 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
2667 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
2668 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
2669 [Bodo Moeller]
2670
2671 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
2672 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
2673
2674 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
2675 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
2676 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
2677 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
2678 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
2679 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
2680 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
2681 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
2682 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
2683 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
2684 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
2685 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
2686 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
2687 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
2688 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
2689 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
2690 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
2691 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
2692 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
2693 the new code.
2694 [Geoff Thorpe]
2695
2696 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
2697 [Steve Henson]
2698
2699 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
2700 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
2701 become part of libeay.num as well.
2702 [Richard Levitte]
2703
2704 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
2705 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
2706 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
2707 false once a handshake has been completed.
2708 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
2709 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
2710 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
2711 client has followed the request.)
2712 [Bodo Moeller]
2713
2714 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
2715 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
2716 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
2717 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
2718
2719 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
2720 more bits available for options that should not be part of
2721 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
2722 [Bodo Moeller]
2723
2724 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
2725 [Steve Henson]
2726
2727 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
2728 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
2729 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
2730 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2731
2732 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
2733 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
2734 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2735
2736 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
2737 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
2738 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
2739 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
2740 [Geoff Thorpe]
2741
2742 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
2743 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
2744 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
2745 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
2746 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
2747 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
2748 [Geoff Thorpe]
2749
2750 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
2751 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
2752 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
2753 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
2754 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
2755 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
2756 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
2757 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
2758 [Geoff Thorpe]
2759
2760 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
2761 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
2762 [Geoff Thorpe]
2763
2764 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
2765 [Ben Laurie]
2766
2767 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
2768 md_data void pointer.
2769 [Ben Laurie]
2770
2771 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
2772 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
2773 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
2774 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
2775 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
2776 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
2777 [Ben Laurie]
2778
2779 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
2780 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
2781 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
2782 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
2783 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
2784 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
2785 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
2786 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
2787 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
2788 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
2789 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
2790 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
2791 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
2792 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
2793 rather than letting it slide.
2794
2795 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
2796 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
2797 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
2798 [Geoff Thorpe]
2799
2800 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
2801 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
2802 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
2803 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
2804 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
2805 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
2806 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
2807 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
2808 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
2809 [Geoff Thorpe]
2810
2811 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
2812 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
2813 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
2814 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
2815 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
2816
2817 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
2818 [Geoff Thorpe]
2819
2820 *) Add EVP test program.
2821 [Ben Laurie]
2822
2823 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
2824 [Ben Laurie]
2825
2826 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
2827 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
2828 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
2829 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
2830 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
2831 [Steve Henson]
2832
2833 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
2834 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
2835 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
2836 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
2837 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
2838 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
2839 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
2840
2841 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
2842 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
2843 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
2844 Usage example:
2845
2846 EVP_MD_CTX md;
2847
2848 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
2849 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
2850 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
2851 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
2852 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
2853
2854 [Ben Laurie]
2855
2856 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
2857 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
2858 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
2859 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
2860 anyway): E.g.,
2861
2862 des_key_schedule ks;
2863
2864 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
2865 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
2866
2867 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
2868 [Ben Laurie]
2869
2870 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
2871 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
2872 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
2873 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
2874 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
2875 functions prevents this.
2876 [Steve Henson]
2877
2878 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
2879 [Ben Laurie]
2880
2881 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
2882 correct _ecb suffix.
2883 [Ben Laurie]
2884
2885 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
2886 revocation information is handled using the text based index
2887 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
2888 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
2889 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
2890 [Steve Henson]
2891
2892 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
2893 [Richard Levitte]
2894
2895 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
2896 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
2897 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
2898 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
2899
2900 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
2901 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
2902
2903 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
2904 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
2905 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
2906 via Richard Levitte]
2907
2908 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
2909 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
2910 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
2911 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
2912 [Geoff Thorpe]
2913
2914 *) Speed up EVP routines.
2915 Before:

2930 [Ben Laurie]
2931
2932 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
2933 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
2934
2935 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
2936 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
2937 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
2938 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
2939 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
2940 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
2941 [Steve Henson]
2942
2943 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
2944 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
2945 [Richard Levitte]
2946
2947 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
2948 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
2949 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
2950 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
2951
2952 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
2953 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
2954 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
2955 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
2956 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
2957 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
2958 callback.
2959 [Richard Levitte]
2960
2961 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
2962 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
2963 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
2964 and interrupts/cancellations.
2965 [Richard Levitte]
2966
2967 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
2968 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
2969 [Steve Henson]
2970
2971 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
2972 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
2973 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
2974
2975 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
2976 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
2977 kind of callback.
2978 [Richard Levitte]
2979
2980 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
2981 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
2982 than this minimum value is recommended.
2983 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2984
2985 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
2986 that are easily reachable.
2987 [Richard Levitte]
2988
2989 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
2990 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
2991
2992 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
2993
2994 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
2995 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
2996 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
2997 needed for static libraries under Win32.
2998 [Steve Henson]
2999
3000 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
3001 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
3002 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
3003 [Steve Henson]
3004
3005 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
3006 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
3007 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
3008 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
3009 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
3010 internally such as S/MIME.
3011
3012 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
3013 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
3014 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
3015
3016 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
3017 applications.
3018 [Steve Henson]
3019
3020 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
3021 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
3022 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
3023 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
3024
3025 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3026
3027 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
3028
3029 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
3030 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
3031 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
3032 handling.
3033 [Steve Henson]
3034
3035 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
3036 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
3037 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
3038 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
3039 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
3040 a window system and the like.
3041 [Richard Levitte]
3042
3043 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
3044 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
3045 [Geoff]
3046
3047 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
3048 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
3049 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
3050 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
3051 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
3052 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
3053 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
3054 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
3055 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
3056 ENGINE structure.
3057 [Geoff]
3058
3059 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
3060 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
3061 tag cache.
3062 [Steve Henson]
3063
3064 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
3065 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
3066 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
3067 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
3068 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
3069 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
3070 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
3071 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
3072 [Geoff]
3073
3074 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
3075 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
3076 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
3077 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
3078 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
3079 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
3080 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
3081 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
3082 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
3083 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
3084 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
3085 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
3086 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
3087 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
3088 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
3089 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
3090 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
3091 [Geoff]
3092
3093 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
3094 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
3095 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
3096 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
3097 internal engine_int.h header.
3098 [Geoff]
3099
3100 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
3101 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
3102 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
3103 modify their own ones).
3104 [Geoff]
3105
3106 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
3107 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
3108 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
3109 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
3110 later on via ctrl() commands.
3111 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
3112 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
3113 structural references.
3114 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
3115 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
3116 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
3117 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
3118 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
3119 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
3120 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
3121 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
3122 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
3123 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
3124 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
3125 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
3126 [Geoff]
3127
3128 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
3129 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
3130 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
3131 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
3132 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
3133 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
3134 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
3135 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
3136 [Bodo Moeller]
3137
3138 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
3139 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
3140 [Steve Henson]
3141
3142 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
3143 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
3144 [Steve Henson]
3145
3146 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
3147 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
3148 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
3149 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
3150 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
3151 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
3152 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
3153 [Steve Henson]
3154
3155 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
3156 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
3157 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
3158 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
3159 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
3160
3161 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
3162 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
3163 generator).
3164 [Bodo Moeller]
3165
3166 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
3167
3168 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
3169 operations and provides various method functions that can also
3170 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
3171
3172 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
3173 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
3174
3175 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
3176 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
3177 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
3178
3179 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
3180 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
3181
3182 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
3183 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
3184
3185 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
3186
3187 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
3188 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
3189 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
3190 [Bodo Moeller]
3191
3192 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
3193 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
3194 [Richard Levitte]
3195
3196 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
3197 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
3198 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
3199 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
3200 is 40 of more characters long.
3201 [Steve Henson]
3202
3203 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
3204 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
3205 pointers.
3206 [Steve Henson]
3207
3208 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
3209 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
3210 [Bodo Moeller]
3211
3212 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
3213 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
3214 might.
3215 [Steve Henson]
3216
3217 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
3218
3219 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
3220 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
3221
3222 ASN1 error codes
3223 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
3224 ...
3225 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
3226 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
3227 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
3228 ...
3229 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
3230 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
3231
3232 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
3233 [Bodo Moeller]
3234
3235 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
3236 suffices.
3237 [Bodo Moeller]
3238
3239 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
3240 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
3241 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
3242 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
3243 and
3244 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
3245
3246 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
3247 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
3248
3249 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
3250 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
3251 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
3252 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
3253 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
3254 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
3255
3256 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3257 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3258
3259 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3260 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3261
3262 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3263 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3264
3265 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3266 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3267 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3268 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3269
3270 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
3271 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
3272
3273 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
3274 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
3275
3276 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3277 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3278 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3279 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3280 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
3281 [Richard Levitte]
3282
3283 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
3284 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
3285 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
3286 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
3287 [Steve Henson]
3288
3289 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
3290 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
3291 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
3292 trust settings.
3293 [Steve Henson]
3294
3295 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
3296 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
3297 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
3298 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
3299 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
3300 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
3301 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
3302 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
3303 ocsp utility.
3304 [Steve Henson]
3305
3306 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
3307 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
3308 [Steve Henson]
3309
3310 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
3311 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
3312 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
3313 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
3314 [Steve Henson]
3315
3316 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
3317 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
3318 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
3319 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
3320 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
3321 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
3322 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
3323 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
3324 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
3325 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
3326 [Steve Henson]
3327
3328 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
3329 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
3330 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
3331 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
3332 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
3333 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
3334 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
3335 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3336
3337 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
3338 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
3339 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
3340 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
3341 [Richard Levitte]
3342
3343 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
3344 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
3345 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
3346 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
3347 opensslconf.h.
3348 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
3349 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
3350 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
3351 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
3352 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
3353 what is available.
3354 [Richard Levitte]
3355
3356 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
3357 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
3358 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
3359 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
3360 auto incremented.
3361 [Steve Henson]
3362
3363 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
3364 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
3365 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
3366 [Steve Henson]
3367
3368 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
3369 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
3370 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
3371 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
3372 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
3373 [Steve Henson]
3374
3375 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
3376 [Steve Henson]
3377
3378 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
3379 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
3380 option to ocsp utility.
3381 [Steve Henson]
3382
3383 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
3384 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
3385 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
3386 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
3387 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
3388 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
3389 the request is nonce-less.
3390 [Steve Henson]
3391
3392 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
3393 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
3394 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
3395 [Bodo Moeller]
3396
3397 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
3398 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
3399 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
3400 [Steve Henson]
3401
3402 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
3403 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
3404 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
3405 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
3406 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
3407 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3408
3409 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
3410 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
3411 appear to exist.
3412 [Steve Henson]
3413
3414 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
3415 additional certificates supplied.
3416 [Steve Henson]
3417
3418 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
3419 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
3420 signature against.
3421 [Richard Levitte]
3422
3423 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
3424 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
3425 AES OIDs.
3426
3427 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
3428 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
3429 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
3430 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
3431 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
3432 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
3433 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
3434 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
3435 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3436
3437 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
3438 request to response.
3439 [Steve Henson]
3440
3441 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
3442 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
3443 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
3444 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
3445 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
3446 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
3447 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
3448 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
3449 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
3450 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
3451 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
3452 [Steve Henson]
3453
3454 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
3455 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
3456 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
3457 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
3458 [Steve Henson]
3459
3460 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
3461 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3462
3463 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
3464 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
3465 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
3466 [Steve Henson]
3467
3468 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
3469 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
3470 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
3471 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3472 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3473
3474 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
3475 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
3476 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
3477 [Steve Henson]
3478
3479 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
3480 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
3481 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
3482 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
3483 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
3484 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
3485 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3486 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3487
3488 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
3489 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
3490 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
3491 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
3492 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
3493 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
3494 [Steve Henson]
3495
3496 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
3497 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
3498 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
3499 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
3500 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
3501 printout format cleaned up.
3502 [Steve Henson]
3503
3504 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
3505 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
3506 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
3507 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
3508 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
3509 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
3510 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
3511 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
3512 [Steve Henson]
3513
3514 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
3515 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
3516 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
3517 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
3518 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
3519 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
3520 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
3521 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
3522 [Steve Henson]
3523
3524 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
3525 extensions from a separate configuration file.
3526 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
3527 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
3528 section to use.
3529 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3530
3531 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
3532 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
3533 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
3534 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
3535 [Steve Henson]
3536
3537 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
3538 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
3539 the given serial number (according to the index file).
3540 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
3541 in the index file.
3542 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3543
3544 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
3545 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
3546 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
3547 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3548
3549 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
3550 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
3551
3552 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
3553 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
3554 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
3555 [Steve Henson]
3556
3557 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
3558 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
3559 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
3560 [Bodo Moeller]
3561
3562 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
3563 file name and line number information in additional arguments
3564 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
3565 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
3566 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
3567 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
3568 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
3569 functions are provided:
3570
3571 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
3572 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
3573 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
3574 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
3575
3576 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
3577 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
3578 extended allocation function is enabled.
3579 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
3580 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
3581 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
3582
3583 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
3584 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
3585 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
3586 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
3587 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
3588 [Geoff Thorpe]
3589
3590 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
3591 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
3592 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
3593 be queried.
3594 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
3595 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
3596 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
3597 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3598
3599 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
3600 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
3601 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
3602 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
3603 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
3604 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
3605 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
3606 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
3607 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
3608 [Richard Levitte]
3609
3610 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
3611 provide utility functions which an application needing
3612 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
3613 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
3614 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
3615
3616 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
3617 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
3618 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
3619 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
3620 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
3621 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
3622 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
3623 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
3624 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
3625
3626 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
3627 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
3628 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
3629 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
3630 [Steve Henson]
3631
3632 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
3633 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
3634 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
3635 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
3636 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
3637 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
3638 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
3639 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
3640 will be added elsewhere.
3641 [Steve Henson]
3642
3643 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
3644 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
3645 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
3646 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
3647 [Steve Henson]
3648
3649 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
3650 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
3651 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
3652 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
3653 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
3654 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
3655 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
3656 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
3657 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
3658 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
3659 to produce the required SET OF.
3660 [Steve Henson]
3661
3662 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
3663 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
3664 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
3665 [Richard Levitte]
3666
3667 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
3668 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
3669 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
3670 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
3671 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
3672 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
3673 [Steve Henson]
3674
3675 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
3676 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
3677 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
3678 [Steve Henson]
3679
3680 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
3681 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
3682 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
3683 [Richard Levitte]
3684
3685 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
3686 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
3687 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
3688 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
3689 code will still work when these eventually go away.
3690 [Steve Henson]
3691
3692 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
3693 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
3694 [Steve Henson]
3695
3696 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
3697 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
3698 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
3699 certifcates and CRLs.
3700 [Steve Henson]
3701
3702 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
3703 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
3704 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
3705 [Steve Henson]
3706
3707 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
3708 entries for variables.
3709 [Steve Henson]
3710
3711 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
3712 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
3713 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
3714 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
3715 [Bodo Moeller]
3716
3717 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
3718 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
3719 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
3720 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
3721 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
3722 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
3723 [Bodo Moeller]
3724
3725 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
3726 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
3727
3728 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
3729 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
3730 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
3731 [Steve Henson]
3732
3733 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
3734 print routines.
3735 [Steve Henson]
3736
3737 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
3738 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
3739 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
3740 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
3741 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
3742 order did not reflect the encoded order.
3743 [Steve Henson]
3744
3745 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
3746 [Steve Henson]
3747
3748 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
3749 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
3750 for now but they will eventually go away.
3751 [Steve Henson]
3752
3753 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
3754 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
3755 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
3756 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
3757 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
3758 has also been converted to the new form.
3759 [Steve Henson]
3760
3761 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
3762 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
3763 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
3764 for negative moduli.
3765 [Bodo Moeller]
3766
3767 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
3768 of not touching the result's sign bit.
3769 [Bodo Moeller]
3770
3771 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
3772 set.
3773 [Bodo Moeller]
3774
3775 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
3776 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
3777 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
3778 type-specific callbacks.
3779 [Geoff Thorpe]
3780
3781 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
3782 RFC 2712.
3783 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
3784 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
3785
3786 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
3787 in sections depending on the subject.
3788 [Richard Levitte]
3789
3790 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
3791 Windows.
3792 [Richard Levitte]
3793
3794 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
3795 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
3796 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
3797 be handled deterministically).
3798 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
3799
3800 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
3801 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
3802 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
3803 [Bodo Moeller]
3804
3805 *) New function BN_kronecker.
3806 [Bodo Moeller]
3807
3808 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
3809 positive unless both parameters are zero.
3810 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
3811 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
3812 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
3813 [Bodo Moeller]
3814
3815 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
3816 sign of the number in question.
3817
3818 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
3819
3820 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
3821 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
3822 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
3823 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
3824 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
3825 [Bodo Moeller]
3826
3827 *) New function BN_swap.
3828 [Bodo Moeller]
3829
3830 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
3831 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
3832 results on negative inputs.
3833 [Bodo Moeller]
3834
3835 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
3836 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
3837 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
3838 [Bodo Moeller]
3839
3840 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
3841 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
3842 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
3843 and add new functions:
3844
3845 BN_nnmod
3846 BN_mod_sqr
3847 BN_mod_add
3848 BN_mod_add_quick
3849 BN_mod_sub
3850 BN_mod_sub_quick
3851 BN_mod_lshift1
3852 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
3853 BN_mod_lshift
3854 BN_mod_lshift_quick
3855
3856 These functions always generate non-negative results.
3857
3858 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
3859 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
3860
3861 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
3862 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
3863 be reduced modulo m.

3866 #if 0
3867 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
3868 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
3869 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
3870
3871 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3872 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3873 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3874 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3875 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3876 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3877 differing sizes.
3878 [Richard Levitte]
3879 #endif
3880
3881 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
3882 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
3883 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
3884 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
3885 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
3886
3887 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
3888 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
3889 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
3890 cause any problems.
3891 [Bodo Moeller]
3892
3893 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
3894 [Richard Levitte]
3895
3896 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
3897 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
3898 [Richard Levitte]
3899
3900 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
3901 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
3902 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
3903 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
3904 time)
3905 [Richard Levitte]
3906
3907 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
3908 [Richard Levitte]
3909
3910 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
3911 [Richard Levitte]
3912
3913 *) Add the following functions:
3914
3915 ENGINE_load_cswift()
3916 ENGINE_load_chil()
3917 ENGINE_load_atalla()
3918 ENGINE_load_nuron()
3919 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
3920
3921 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
3922 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
3923 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
3924 libraries unless it's really needed.
3925
3926 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
3927 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
3928 declarations (they differed!).
3929 [Richard Levitte]
3930
3931 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
3932 [Richard Levitte]
3933
3934 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
3935 [Richard Levitte]
3936
3937 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
3938 [Bodo Moeller]
3939
3940 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
3941 identity, and test if they are actually available.
3942 [Richard Levitte]
3943
3944 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
3945 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
3946 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3947
3948 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
3949 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
3950 [Richard Levitte]
3951
3952 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
3953 [Richard Levitte]
3954
3955 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
3956 [Richard Levitte]
3957
3958 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
3959 [Ben Laurie]
3960
3961 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
3962 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
3963 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
3964
3965 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
3966 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
3967 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
3968 different shared library filenames on each system.
3969 [Geoff Thorpe]
3970
3971 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
3972 [Richard Levitte]
3973
3974 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
3975 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
3976 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
3977 of two sections.
3978 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
3979
3980 *) NCONF changes.
3981 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
3982 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
3983 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
3984 binary backward compatibility.
3985 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
3986 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
3987 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
3988 LDAP server.
3989 [Richard Levitte]
3990
3991 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
3992 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
3993 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
3994 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
3995 this case.
3996 [Steve Henson]
3997
3998 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
3999 [Ben Laurie]
4000
4001 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
4002 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
4003 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
4004 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
4005 set.
4006 [Steve Henson]
4007
4008 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
4009 [Richard Levitte]
4010
4011 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
4012
4013 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4014 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4015 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4016
4017 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
4018
4019 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
4020
4021 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
4022 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
4023 [Steve Henson]
4024
4025 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
4026
4027 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4028
4029 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4030 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4031
4032 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4033 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4034
4035 [Steve Henson]
4036
4037 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4038 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4039 specifications.
4040 [Steve Henson]
4041
4042 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4043 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4044 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4045 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4046
4047 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4048 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4049 [Richard Levitte]
4050
4051 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
4052
4053 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4054 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4055 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4056 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4057 [Bodo Moeller]
4058
4059 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4060 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4061 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4062 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4063 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4064
4065 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4066 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4067 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4068 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4069 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4070 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4071 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4072 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4073 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4074 [Bodo Moeller]
4075
4076 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
4077
4078 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4079 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4080 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4081 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4082 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4083
4084 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4085 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4086 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4087
4088 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
4089
4090 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
4091 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
4092 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
4093 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
4094 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
4095 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
4096 [Geoff Thorpe]
4097
4098 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
4099 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
4100 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
4101 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
4102 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
4103 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4104
4105 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
4106 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
4107 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
4108
4109 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
4110 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
4111 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
4112 EVP_cleanup().
4113 [Richard Levitte]
4114
4115 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
4116 being properly terminated.
4117 [Richard Levitte]
4118
4119 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
4120 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
4121 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
4122 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
4123
4124 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
4125 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
4126 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
4127 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
4128 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
4129 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
4130 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
4131 change.
4132 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
4133
4134 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
4135 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
4136 [Bodo Moeller]
4137
4138 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
4139 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
4140 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
4141 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
4142 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
4143 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
4144 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
4145 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
4146
4147 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
4148 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
4149 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
4150 (see [openssl.org #212]).
4151 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
4152
4153 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
4154 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
4155 [Steve Henson]
4156
4157 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
4158
4159 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
4160 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
4161 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
4162
4163 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
4164
4165 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
4166 and get fix the header length calculation.
4167 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
4168 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
4169 Steve Henson]
4170
4171 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
4172 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
4173 assertions could call abort()).
4174 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
4175
4176 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
4177
4178 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4179 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4180 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4181 supplied buffer.
4182 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4183
4184 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
4185 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
4186 by the selection routines (PR #130).
4187 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4188
4189 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
4190 [Nils Larsch]
4191
4192 *) New option
4193 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
4194 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
4195 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
4196
4197 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
4198 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
4199 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
4200 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
4201 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
4202 applications.
4203 [Bodo Moeller]
4204
4205 *) Changes in security patch:
4206
4207 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
4208 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
4209 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
4210 F30602-01-2-0537.
4211
4212 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4213 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4214 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4215 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
4216 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4217
4218 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
4219 happen in practice.
4220 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4221
4222 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
4223 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
4224 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
4225
4226 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4227 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
4228 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4229
4230 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
4231 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
4232 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4233
4234 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
4235
4236 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
4237 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
4238 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
4239
4240 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
4241 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4242
4243 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
4244 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
4245 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
4246 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
4247 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
4248 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
4249 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4250
4251 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
4252 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
4253 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
4254 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
4255 [Bodo Moeller]
4256
4257 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
4258 [Bodo Moeller]
4259
4260 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
4261 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
4262 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
4263 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4264 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4265 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4266
4267 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4268 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4269 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4270 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4271 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4272 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4273
4274 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4275 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4276 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4277 BN_generate_prime().)
4278
4279 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4280 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4281 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4282 better.
4283 [Bodo Moeller]
4284
4285 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
4286 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
4287 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4288
4289 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
4290 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
4291 when using non-blocking I/O.
4292 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
4293
4294 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
4295 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
4296
4297 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
4298 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
4299 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4300
4301 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
4302 configuration for the versions before that.
4303 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4304
4305 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
4306 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
4307 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
4308 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
4309 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4310
4311 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
4312 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
4313 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
4314 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4315
4316 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
4317 value is 0.
4318 [Richard Levitte]
4319
4320 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
4321 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4322 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4323
4324 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
4325 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
4326
4327 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
4328 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
4329 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
4330 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
4331 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
4332 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
4333 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
4334 session cache.
4335
4336 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
4337 using a local variable.
4338 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4339
4340 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
4341 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
4342 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4343
4344 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
4345 [Richard Levitte]
4346
4347 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
4348 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
4349
4350 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
4351 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
4352 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
4353
4354 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
4355
4356 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
4357 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
4358 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
4359 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
4360 [Bodo Moeller]
4361
4362 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
4363 present.
4364 [Steve Henson]
4365
4366 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
4367 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
4368 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
4369 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
4370 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
4371
4372 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
4373 returns early because it has nothing to do.
4374 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4375
4376 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4377 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
4378 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4379
4380 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4381 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
4382 (Use engine 'keyclient')
4383 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
4384
4385 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
4386 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
4387 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
4388 modules).
4389 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
4390
4391 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4392 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
4393 from 0.9.7.
4394 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
4395
4396 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4397 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
4398 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4399 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
4400
4401 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4402 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
4403 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4404 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
4405
4406 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
4407 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
4408
4409 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
4410 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
4411 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
4412 [Bodo Moeller]
4413
4414 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
4415 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
4416 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
4417 become invalid.
4418 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
4419
4420 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
4421 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
4422 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
4423 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
4424 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
4425 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
4426 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
4427 [Bodo Moeller]
4428
4429 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
4430 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
4431 one of the SSL handshake functions.
4432 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
4433
4434 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
4435 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
4436 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
4437 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
4438 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
4439 the client will at least see that alert.
4440 [Bodo Moeller]
4441
4442 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
4443 correctly.
4444 [Bodo Moeller]
4445
4446 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
4447 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
4448 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4449
4450 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
4451 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
4452 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
4453 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
4454 HelloRequest.
4455
4456 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
4457 before just sending a HelloRequest.
4458 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
4459
4460 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
4461 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
4462 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
4463 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
4464 may leak via logfiles.)
4465
4466 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
4467 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
4468 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
4469 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
4470 the legal range.
4471 [Bodo Moeller]
4472
4473 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
4474 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4475 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4476
4477 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
4478 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
4479 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
4480 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
4481 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
4482 [Bodo Moeller]
4483
4484 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
4485 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
4486
4487 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
4488 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
4489 followed by modular reduction.
4490 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
4491
4492 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
4493 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
4494 [Bodo Moeller]
4495
4496 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
4497 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
4498 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
4499 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
4500 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4501
4502 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
4503 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4504
4505 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
4506 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
4507 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4508
4509 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
4510 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
4511 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
4512 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
4513 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
4514 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
4515 automatically.
4516 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
4517
4518 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
4519 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
4520 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
4521 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
4522 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
4523
4524 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
4525 [Andy Polyakov]
4526
4527 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
4528 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
4529 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
4530 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
4531 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
4532 to allow the necessary settings.
4533 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4534
4535 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
4536 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
4537 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
4538 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
4539 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4540
4541 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
4542 dh->length and always used
4543
4544 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
4545
4546 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
4547 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
4548 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
4549 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
4550 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
4551 dh->length.
4552
4553 So switch back to
4554
4555 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
4556
4557 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
4558 otherwise.
4559 [Bodo Moeller]
4560
4561 *) In
4562
4563 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
4564 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
4565 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
4566 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
4567
4568 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
4569 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
4570 always reject numbers >= n.
4571 [Bodo Moeller]
4572
4573 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
4574 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
4575 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
4576 variable) is not atomic.
4577 [Bodo Moeller]
4578
4579 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
4580 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
4581 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
4582 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
4583
4584 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
4585 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
4586
4587 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
4588 little-endian MIPS.
4589 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
4590
4591 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
4592 [Richard Levitte]
4593
4594 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
4595
4596 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
4597 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
4598 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
4599 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
4600 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
4601 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
4602 to traverse all of 'state'.
4603
4604 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
4605 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
4606 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
4607
4608 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
4609 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
4610
4611 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
4612 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
4613 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
4614 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
4615 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
4616 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
4617 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
4618 further strengthens the PRNG.
4619 [Bodo Moeller]
4620
4621 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
4622 [Andy Polyakov]
4623
4624 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
4625 an error message in this case.
4626 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4627
4628 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
4629 [Steve Henson]
4630
4631 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
4632 positive and less than q.
4633 [Bodo Moeller]
4634
4635 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
4636 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
4637 that itself.
4638 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
4639
4640 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
4641 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
4642 [Bodo Moeller]
4643
4644 *) Fix OAEP check.
4645 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
4646
4647 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
4648 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
4649 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
4650 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
4651 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
4652 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
4653 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
4654 paper.)
4655
4656 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
4657 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
4658 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
4659 detect the supposedly ignored error.
4660
4661 Both problems are now fixed.
4662 [Bodo Moeller]
4663
4664 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
4665 (previously it was 1024).
4666 [Bodo Moeller]
4667
4668 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
4669 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
4670 [Steve Henson]
4671
4672 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
4673 [Steve Henson]
4674
4675 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
4676 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
4677 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
4678 [Steve Henson]
4679
4680 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
4681 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
4682 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
4683 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
4684 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
4685 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
4686 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
4687 environment variables.
4688
4689 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
4690 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
4691 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
4692 [Bodo Moeller]
4693
4694 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
4695 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
4696 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
4697 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
4698 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
4699 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
4700 [Bodo Moeller]
4701
4702 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
4703 versions of 'test'.
4704 [Bodo Moeller]
4705
4706 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
4707
4708 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
4709 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
4710
4711 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
4712 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
4713 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
4714 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
4715 CygWin.
4716 [Richard Levitte]
4717
4718 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
4719 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
4720 amount of data available.
4721 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
4722 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4723
4724 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
4725 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
4726 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
4727 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
4728 [Bodo Moeller]
4729
4730 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
4731 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
4732 and UnixWare.
4733 [Richard Levitte]
4734
4735 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
4736 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
4737 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
4738 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
4739 [Ulf Moeller]
4740
4741 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
4742 [Andy Polyakov]
4743
4744 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
4745 [Richard Levitte]
4746
4747 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
4748 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
4749 [Steve Henson]
4750 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4751
4752 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
4753 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
4754 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
4755 (but broken) behaviour.
4756 [Steve Henson]
4757
4758 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
4759 it when found.
4760 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
4761
4762 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
4763 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
4764 [Bodo Moeller]
4765
4766 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
4767 did not exist.
4768 [Bodo Moeller]
4769
4770 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
4771 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
4772
4773 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
4774 [Richard Levitte]
4775
4776 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
4777 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
4778 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
4779
4780 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
4781 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
4782 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
4783 [Steve Henson]
4784
4785 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
4786 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
4787 [Ulf Moeller]
4788
4789 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
4790 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
4791
4792 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
4793
4794 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
4795
4796 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
4797 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
4798 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
4799 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
4800 [Bodo Moeller]
4801
4802 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
4803 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4804
4805 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
4806 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
4807 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
4808
4809 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
4810 was empty.
4811 [Steve Henson]
4812 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4813
4814 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
4815 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
4816 but the code is actually correct.
4817 [Steve Henson]
4818
4819 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
4820 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
4821 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
4822 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
4823 and leaves the highest bit random.
4824 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4825
4826 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
4827 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
4828 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
4829 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
4830 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
4831 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
4832 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
4833 [Bodo Moeller]
4834
4835 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
4836 [Ulf Moeller]
4837
4838 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
4839 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
4840 [Steve Henson]
4841
4842 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
4843 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
4844 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
4845 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
4846 headers.
4847 [Richard Levitte]
4848
4849 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
4850 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
4851 and break the signature.
4852 [Steve Henson]
4853 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4854
4855 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
4856 DH ciphersuites.
4857 [Steve Henson]
4858
4859 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
4860 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
4861 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
4862 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
4863 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
4864 [Bodo Moeller]
4865
4866 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
4867 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
4868
4869 *) ./config script fixes.
4870 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
4871
4872 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
4873 [Bodo Moeller]
4874
4875 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
4876 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
4877 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
4878 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
4879 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
4880
4881 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
4882 call failed, free the DSA structure.
4883 [Bodo Moeller]
4884
4885 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
4886 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
4887 [Steve Henson]
4888
4889 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
4890 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
4891 when writing a 32767 byte record.
4892 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
4893
4894 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
4895 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
4896
4897 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
4898 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
4899 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
4900 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
4901 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
4902
4903 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
4904 [Bodo Moeller]
4905
4906 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
4907 [Ulf Möller]
4908
4909 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
4910 [Ulf Möller]
4911
4912 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
4913 [Bodo Moeller]
4914
4915 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
4916 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
4917 [Bodo Moeller]
4918
4919 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
4920 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
4921 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
4922 result of the server certificate verification.)
4923 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4924
4925 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
4926 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
4927 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
4928 [Bodo Moeller]
4929
4930 *) Fix SSL_peek:
4931 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
4932 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
4933 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
4934 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
4935 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
4936 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
4937 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
4938 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
4939 [Bodo Moeller]
4940
4941 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
4942 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
4943 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
4944 happening the other way round.
4945 [Geoff Thorpe]
4946
4947 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
4948 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
4949 [Bodo Moeller]
4950
4951 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
4952 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
4953 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
4954 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
4955 [Richard Levitte]
4956
4957 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
4958 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
4959
4960 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
4961
4962 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
4963 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
4964 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
4965 that.
4966
4967 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
4968
4969 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
4970
4971 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
4972 static ones.
4973 [Richard Levitte]
4974
4975 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
4976
4977 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
4978 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
4979 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
4980 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
4981 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
4982
4983 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
4984 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
4985 matter what.
4986 [Richard Levitte]
4987
4988 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
4989 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4990
4991 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
4992
4993 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
4994 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
4995 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
4996 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
4997 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
4998 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
4999 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
5000 by the Finished messages.
5001 [Bodo Moeller]
5002
5003 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
5004 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
5005
5006 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
5007 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
5008 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
5009 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
5010 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
5011 appropriately.
5012 [Steve Henson]
5013
5014 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
5015 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
5016 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
5017 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
5018 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
5019 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
5020 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
5021 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
5022 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
5023 together.
5024 [Steve Henson]
5025
5026 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
5027 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
5028 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
5029 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
5030
5031 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
5032 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
5033 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
5034 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
5035 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
5036 the answer.
5037
5038 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
5039 been tested well enough.
5040 [Richard Levitte]
5041
5042 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
5043 it can return incorrect results.
5044 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
5045 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
5046 [Bodo Moeller]
5047
5048 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
5049 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
5050 include zero length content when signing messages.
5051 [Steve Henson]
5052
5053 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
5054 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
5055 [Bodo Möller]
5056
5057 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
5058 [Richard Levitte]
5059
5060 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
5061 wrong sign.
5062 [Ulf Möller]
5063
5064 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
5065 packages. The default package contains applications, application
5066 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
5067 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
5068 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
5069 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
5070 [Richard Levitte]
5071
5072 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
5073 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
5074
5075 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
5076 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
5077
5078 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
5079 random number < q in the DSA library.
5080 [Ulf Möller]
5081
5082 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
5083 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
5084 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
5085 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
5086 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
5087 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
5088 just makes things more complicated.)
5089 [Bodo Moeller]
5090
5091 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
5092 from EGD.
5093 [Ben Laurie]
5094
5095 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
5096 work better on such systems.
5097 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
5098
5099 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
5100 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
5101 keyid to the certificates aux info.
5102 [Steve Henson]
5103
5104 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
5105 if there was more than one signature.
5106 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
5107
5108 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
5109 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
5110 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
5111 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
5112 [Richard Levitte]
5113
5114 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
5115 rather than always using the current time.
5116 [Steve Henson]
5117
5118 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
5119 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
5120 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
5121 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
5122 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
5123 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
5124
5125 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
5126 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
5127
5128 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
5129
5130 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
5131 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
5132 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
5133 the same hash value.
5134
5135 As a result various functions (which were all internal
5136 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
5137 structure. This will break anything that messed round
5138 with X509_STORE internally.
5139
5140 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
5141 exact match, rather than just subject name.
5142
5143 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
5144 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
5145 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
5146 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
5147 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
5148 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
5149 entirely (maybe later...).
5150
5151 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
5152
5153 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
5154 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
5155 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
5156 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
5157 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
5158 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
5159 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
5160 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
5161
5162 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
5163 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5164
5165 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
5166 to customise the verify behaviour.
5167 [Steve Henson]
5168
5169 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
5170 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
5171 [Steve Henson]
5172
5173 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
5174 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
5175 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
5176 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
5177 request is improperly encoded.
5178 [Steve Henson]
5179
5180 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
5181 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
5182 BIO_write(b, ...).
5183
5184 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
5185 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
5186
5187 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
5188 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
5189 words set to zero.)
5190 [Bodo Moeller]
5191
5192 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
5193 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
5194 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
5195 [Bodo Moeller]
5196
5197 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
5198 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
5199 BIO/fp routines also added.
5200 [Steve Henson]
5201
5202 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
5203 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
5204
5205 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
5206 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
5207 demos/state_machine.
5208 [Ben Laurie]
5209
5210 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
5211 generation and verification.
5212 [Steve Henson]
5213
5214 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
5215 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
5216 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
5217 encode and decode it manually.
5218 [Steve Henson]
5219
5220 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
5221 compile under VC++.
5222 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
5223
5224 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
5225 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
5226 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
5227 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
5228
5229 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
5230 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
5231 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
5232 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
5233 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
5234 [Steve Henson]
5235
5236 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
5237 [Richard Levitte]
5238
5239 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
5240 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
5241 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
5242
5243 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
5244 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
5245 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
5246 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
5247 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
5248 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
5249 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
5250 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
5251
5252 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
5253 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
5254
5255 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
5256
5257 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
5258 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
5259 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
5260
5261 [Richard Levitte]
5262
5263 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
5264 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
5265 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
5266 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
5267 [Richard Levitte]
5268
5269 *) MD4 implemented.
5270 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
5271
5272 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
5273 [Richard Levitte]
5274
5275 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5276 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5277 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5278 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5279 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5280 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5281 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5282 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
5283 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
5284 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
5285 short or long names are found.
5286 [Steve Henson]
5287
5288 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
5289 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
5290
5291 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
5292 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
5293 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
5294 version rollback attacks was not effective.
5295
5296 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
5297 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
5298 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
5299 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
5300 [Bodo Moeller]
5301
5302 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
5303 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
5304 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
5305 [Richard Levitte]
5306
5307 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
5308 these print out strings and name structures based on various
5309 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
5310 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
5311 to allow the various flags to be set.
5312 [Steve Henson]
5313
5314 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
5315 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
5316 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
5317 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
5318 dates to be checked.
5319 [Steve Henson]
5320
5321 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
5322 negative public key encodings) on by default,
5323 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
5324 [Steve Henson]
5325
5326 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
5327 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
5328 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
5329 [Steve Henson]
5330
5331 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
5332 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
5333 [Bodo Moeller]
5334
5335 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
5336 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
5337 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
5338 are always statically linked for now, but there are
5339 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
5340 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
5341 [Richard Levitte]
5342
5343 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
5344 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
5345 Random Numbers.
5346 [Ulf Möller]
5347
5348 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
5349 DSA key.
5350 [Steve Henson]
5351
5352 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
5353 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
5354 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
5355 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
5356 form signing output easier to verify.
5357 [Steve Henson]
5358
5359 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
5360 [Steve Henson]
5361
5362 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
5363 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
5364 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
5365 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
5366 are needed because all other string types have virtually
5367 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
5368 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
5369 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
5370 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
5371 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
5372 [Steve Henson]
5373
5374 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
5375
5376 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
5377 the syntax given in objects.README.
5378 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
5379 obj_mac.h.
5380 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
5381 obj_mac.h.
5382
5383 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
5384 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
5385 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
5386 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
5387 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
5388 consistent name changes.
5389 [Richard Levitte]
5390
5391 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
5392 [Bodo Moeller]
5393
5394 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
5395 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
5396 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
5397 environment variable, or the default random state file.
5398 [Richard Levitte]
5399
5400 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
5401 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
5402 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
5403 of safestack.h .
5404 [Steve Henson]
5405
5406 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
5407 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
5408 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
5409 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
5410 [Steve Henson]
5411
5412 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
5413 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
5414 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
5415 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
5416 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
5417 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
5418 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
5419 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
5420 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
5421 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
5422 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
5423 [Steve Henson]
5424
5425 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
5426 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
5427 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
5428 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
5429 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
5430 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
5431 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
5432 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
5433 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
5434 algorithm to openssl-dev.
5435 [Steve Henson]
5436
5437 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
5438 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
5439 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
5440 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
5441
5442 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
5443 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
5444 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
5445 omit any duplicate addresses.
5446 [Steve Henson]
5447
5448 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
5449 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
5450 [Bodo Moeller]
5451
5452 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
5453 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
5454 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
5455 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
5456 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
5457 [Bodo Moeller]
5458
5459 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
5460 software:
5461 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
5462 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
5463 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
5464 Free => OPENSSL_free
5465 [Richard Levitte]
5466
5467 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
5468 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
5469 [Bodo Moeller]
5470
5471 *) CygWin32 support.
5472 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
5473
5474 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
5475 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
5476 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
5477 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
5478 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
5479 approach.
5480 [Geoff Thorpe]
5481
5482 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
5483 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
5484 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
5485 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
5486 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
5487 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
5488 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
5489 [Geoff Thorpe]
5490
5491 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
5492 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
5493 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
5494 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
5495 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
5496 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
5497 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
5498 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
5499 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
5500 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
5501 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
5502 [Bodo Moeller]
5503
5504 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
5505 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
5506 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
5507 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
5508 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
5509
5510 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
5511 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
5512 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
5513 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
5514 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
5515
5516 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
5517 ciphers.
5518
5519 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
5520 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
5521 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
5522 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
5523
5524 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
5525
5526 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
5527 of macros.
5528
5529 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
5530 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
5531 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
5532 flags.
5533
5534 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
5535 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
5536 any installed hardware versions can.
5537 [Steve Henson]
5538
5539 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
5540 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
5541 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
5542 number.
5543 [Bodo Moeller]
5544
5545 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
5546 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
5547 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
5548 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
5549 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
5550
5551 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
5552 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
5553 [Steve Henson]
5554
5555 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
5556 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
5557 [Richard Levitte]
5558
5559 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
5560 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
5561 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
5562 features.
5563 [Steve Henson]
5564
5565 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
5566 [Ulf Möller]
5567
5568 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
5569 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
5570 but no ssl client purpose.
5571 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
5572
5573 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
5574 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
5575 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
5576 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
5577 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
5578 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
5579 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
5580 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
5581 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
5582 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
5583 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
5584 [Steve Henson]
5585
5586 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
5587 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
5588 be obtained from the error queue.
5589 [Bodo Moeller]
5590
5591 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
5592 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
5593 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
5594 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
5595 [Bodo Moeller]
5596
5597 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
5598 [Ulf Möller]
5599
5600 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
5601 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
5602 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
5603 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
5604 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
5605 [Geoff Thorpe]
5606
5607 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
5608 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
5609 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
5610 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
5611 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
5612 [Geoff Thorpe]
5613
5614 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
5615 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
5616 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
5617 may not be NULL.
5618 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
5619
5620 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
5621 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
5622 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
5623 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
5624 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
5625 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
5626 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
5627 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
5628 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
5629 or "the configuration storage API"...
5630
5631 The new configuration file reading functions are:
5632
5633 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
5634 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
5635
5636 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
5637
5638 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
5639
5640 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
5641 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
5642 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
5643 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
5644 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
5645 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
5646 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
5647
5648 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
5649 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
5650 [Richard Levitte]
5651
5652 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
5653 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
5654 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
5655 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
5656 [Bodo Moeller]
5657
5658 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
5659 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
5660 them in a portable way.
5661 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
5662
5663 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
5664
5665 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
5666
5667 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
5668 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
5669
5670 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
5671 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
5672 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
5673 <attili@amaxo.com>]
5674
5675 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
5676 was larger than the MD block size.
5677 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
5678
5679 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
5680 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
5681 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
5682 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
5683 components.
5684 [Steve Henson]
5685
5686 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
5687 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
5688 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
5689
5690 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
5691 discouraged.
5692 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
5693
5694 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
5695 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
5696 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
5697 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
5698 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
5699 Additional arguments are always ignored.
5700
5701 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
5702 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
5703
5704 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
5705 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
5706 [Bodo Moeller]
5707
5708 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
5709 [Bodo Moeller]
5710
5711 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
5712 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
5713 its own key.
5714 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
5715 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
5716 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
5717 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
5718 [Bodo Moeller]
5719
5720 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
5721 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
5722 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
5723 does not suppress any output.
5724 [Richard Levitte]
5725
5726 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
5727 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
5728 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
5729 with all the associated security issues.
5730
5731 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
5732 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
5733 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
5734 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
5735 use the value in the default purpose.
5736 [Steve Henson]
5737
5738 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
5739 and fix a memory leak.
5740 [Steve Henson]
5741
5742 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
5743 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
5744 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
5745 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
5746 [Bodo Moeller]
5747
5748 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
5749 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
5750 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
5751 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
5752 [Bodo Moeller]
5753
5754 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
5755 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
5756 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
5757 [Bodo Moeller]
5758
5759 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
5760 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
5761 [Bodo Moeller]
5762
5763 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
5764 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
5765 which was free.
5766 [Steve Henson]
5767
5768 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
5769 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
5770 [Bodo Moeller]
5771
5772 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
5773 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
5774 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
5775 [Bodo Moeller]
5776
5777 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
5778 number generation fails.
5779 [Bodo Moeller]
5780
5781 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
5782 [Bodo Moeller]
5783
5784 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
5785 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
5786
5787 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
5788 [Ulf Möller]
5789
5790 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
5791 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
5792
5793 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
5794 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
5795
5796 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
5797
5798 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
5799 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
5800 [Steve Henson]
5801
5802 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
5803 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
5804
5805 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
5806 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
5807 [Ulf Möller]
5808
5809 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
5810 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
5811 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
5812 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
5813 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
5814 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
5815
5816 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
5817 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
5818 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
5819 for example.
5820 [Steve Henson]
5821
5822 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
5823 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
5824 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
5825 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
5826 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
5827 counter, some don't.)
5828 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
5829 counters or duplicate objects.
5830 [Steve Henson]
5831
5832 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
5833 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
5834 [Steve Henson]
5835
5836 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
5837 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
5838 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
5839
5840 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
5841 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
5842 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
5843 or -rand.
5844 [Ulf Möller]
5845
5846 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
5847 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
5848 [Steve Henson]
5849
5850 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
5851 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
5852 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
5853 cipher list.
5854 [Steve Henson]
5855
5856 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
5857 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
5858 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
5859 [Steve Henson]
5860
5861 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
5862 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
5863 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
5864 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
5865 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
5866 should work without changes.
5867 [Richard Levitte]
5868
5869 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
5870 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
5871 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
5872 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
5873 must be defined. E.g.,
5874 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
5875 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
5876 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
5877 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
5878
5879 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
5880 record layer.
5881 [Bodo Moeller]
5882
5883 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
5884 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
5885 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
5886 [Steve Henson]
5887
5888 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
5889 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
5890 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
5891 request header lines. Some software needs this.
5892 [Steve Henson]
5893
5894 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
5895 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
5896 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
5897 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
5898 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
5899 is prompted for as usual.
5900 [Steve Henson]
5901
5902 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
5903 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
5904 autodetect the card and use it if present.
5905 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
5906
5907 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
5908 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
5909 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
5910 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
5911 [Steve Henson]
5912
5913 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
5914 [Andy Polyakov]
5915
5916 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
5917 of seed file.
5918 [Steve Henson]
5919
5920 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
5921 [Bodo Moeller]
5922
5923 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
5924 [Steve Henson]
5925
5926 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
5927 bits.
5928 [Ulf Möller]
5929
5930 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
5931 [Ulf Möller]
5932
5933 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
5934 [Andy Polyakov]
5935
5936 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
5937 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
5938 [Ulf Möller]
5939
5940 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
5941 options to produce them.
5942 [Steve Henson]
5943
5944 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
5945 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
5946 [Ulf Möller]
5947
5948 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
5949 for p == 0.
5950 [Ulf Möller]
5951
5952 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
5953 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
5954 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
5955 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
5956 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
5957 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
5958 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
5959 [Steve Henson]
5960
5961 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
5962 [Steve Henson]
5963
5964 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
5965 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
5966 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
5967 [Bodo Moeller]
5968
5969 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
5970 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
5971
5972 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
5973 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
5974 [Ulf Möller]
5975
5976 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
5977 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
5978 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
5979 has already seen).
5980 [Bodo Moeller]
5981
5982 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
5983 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
5984
5985 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
5986 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
5987 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
5988 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
5989 generation becomes much faster.
5990
5991 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
5992 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
5993 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
5994 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
5995 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
5996 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
5997 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
5998 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
5999 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
6000 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
6001 [Bodo Moeller]
6002
6003 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
6004 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
6005 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
6006 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
6007 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
6008 trial division stage.
6009 [Bodo Moeller]
6010
6011 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
6012 as ASN1_TIME.
6013 [Steve Henson]
6014
6015 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
6016 [Steve Henson]
6017
6018 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
6019 [Ulf Möller]
6020
6021 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
6022 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
6023 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
6024 the comments.
6025 [Ulf Möller]
6026
6027 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
6028 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
6029 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
6030 [Bodo Moeller]
6031
6032 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
6033 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
6034 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
6035 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6036
6037 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
6038 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
6039 [Steve Henson]
6040
6041 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
6042 [Ulf Möller]
6043
6044 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
6045 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
6046 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
6047 Rabin-Miller iterations.
6048 [Ulf Möller]
6049
6050 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
6051 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
6052 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
6053 [Ulf Möller]
6054
6055 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
6056 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
6057 (instead of parameters) in future.
6058 [Steve Henson]
6059
6060 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
6061 when a new cipher list is set.
6062 [Steve Henson]
6063
6064 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
6065 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
6066 wrong.
6067
6068 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
6069 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
6070 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
6071
6072 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
6073 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
6074 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
6075 an error is flagged.
6076
6077 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
6078 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
6079 the readability was also increased :-)
6080 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6081
6082 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
6083 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
6084 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
6085 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
6086 as the root CA.
6087 [Steve Henson]
6088
6089 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
6090 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
6091 [Steve Henson]
6092
6093 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
6094 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
6095 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
6096 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
6097 instead.
6098
6099 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
6100 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
6101 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
6102 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
6103 because they handle more complex structures.)
6104 [Steve Henson]
6105
6106 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
6107 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
6108 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
6109 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
6110
6111 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
6112 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
6113 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
6114 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
6115 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
6116 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
6117 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
6118 [Ulf Möller]
6119
6120 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
6121 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
6122 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
6123 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
6124 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
6125 [Bodo Moeller]
6126
6127 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
6128 [Bodo Moeller]
6129
6130 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
6131 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
6132 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
6133 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
6134 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
6135 to use this.
6136
6137 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
6138 code.
6139 [Steve Henson]
6140
6141 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
6142 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
6143 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
6144 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
6145 [Steve Henson]
6146
6147 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
6148 [Ulf Möller]
6149
6150 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
6151 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
6152 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
6153 international characters are used.
6154
6155 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
6156 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
6157 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
6158 in ASN1 order.
6159 [Steve Henson]
6160
6161 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
6162 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
6163 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
6164 request.
6165
6166 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
6167 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
6168 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
6169 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
6170 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
6171 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
6172
6173 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
6174 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
6175 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
6176 be handled by the string table functions.
6177
6178 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
6179 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
6180 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
6181 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
6182 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
6183 types at all.
6184 [Steve Henson]
6185
6186 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
6187 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
6188 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
6189 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
6190 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
6191
6192 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
6193 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
6194 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
6195 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
6196 [Bodo Moeller]
6197
6198 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
6199 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
6200 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
6201 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
6202 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
6203 SHA1.
6204 [Andy Polyakov]
6205
6206 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
6207 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
6208 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
6209 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
6210 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
6211 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
6212 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
6213 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
6214
6215 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
6216 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
6217 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
6218 [Steve Henson]
6219
6220 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
6221 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
6222 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
6223 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
6224 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
6225 support to pkcs8 application.
6226 [Steve Henson]
6227
6228 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
6229 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
6230 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
6231 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
6232 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
6233 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
6234 [Bodo Moeller]
6235
6236 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
6237 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
6238 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
6239 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
6240 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
6241 consistency.
6242 [Bodo Moeller]
6243
6244 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
6245 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
6246 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
6247 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
6248 example.
6249 [Steve Henson]
6250
6251 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
6252 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
6253 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
6254 and any application specific purposes.
6255
6256 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6257 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6258 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6259 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
6260 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
6261 if the certificate is self signed.
6262 [Steve Henson]
6263
6264 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6265 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6266 [Steve Henson]
6267
6268 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6269 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
6270 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
6271 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6272 [Steve Henson]
6273
6274 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6275 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6276 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6277 Update documentation.
6278 [Steve Henson]
6279
6280 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6281 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
6282 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
6283 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
6284 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
6285 [Steve Henson]
6286
6287 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
6288 for details.
6289 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
6290
6291 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
6292 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
6293 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
6294 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
6295 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
6296 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
6297 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
6298 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
6299 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
6300 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
6301
6302 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
6303
6304 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6305 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6306 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
6307 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
6308 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
6309
6310 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
6311 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
6312 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
6313 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
6314 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
6315 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
6316 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
6317 request additional information:
6318 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
6319 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
6320
6321 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
6322 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
6323 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
6324 options.
6325
6326 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
6327 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
6328
6329 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
6330 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
6331 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
6332
6333 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
6334 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6335
6336 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
6337 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
6338 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
6339 algorithm.
6340 [Steve Henson]
6341
6342 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
6343 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
6344 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
6345
6346 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
6347 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
6348 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
6349 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
6350 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
6351 included in OpenSSL.
6352 [Steve Henson]
6353
6354 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
6355 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
6356 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
6357 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
6358 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
6359 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
6360 [Bodo Moeller]
6361
6362 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
6363 PKCS12 structure.
6364 [Steve Henson]
6365
6366 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
6367 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
6368 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
6369 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
6370 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
6371 structure.
6372 [Steve Henson]
6373
6374 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
6375 need initialising.
6376 [Steve Henson]
6377
6378 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
6379 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
6380 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
6381 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
6382 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
6383 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
6384 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
6385 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
6386 be maintained manually.
6387
6388 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
6389 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
6390 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
6391 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
6392 work because people forget to call this function]
6393 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
6394 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
6395 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
6396 [Steve Henson]
6397
6398 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
6399 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
6400 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
6401 should be discouraged from doing it.
6402 [Ben Laurie]
6403
6404 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
6405 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
6406 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
6407 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
6408 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
6409 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
6410 [Steve Henson]
6411
6412 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
6413 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
6414 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
6415
6416 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
6417 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
6418 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
6419
6420 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
6421 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
6422 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
6423 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
6424 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
6425 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
6426
6427 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
6428 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
6429 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
6430
6431 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
6432 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
6433 and vice versa.
6434
6435 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
6436 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
6437 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
6438 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
6439 [Steve Henson]
6440
6441 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
6442 [Steve Henson]
6443
6444 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
6445 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
6446 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
6447 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
6448 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
6449 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
6450 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
6451 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
6452 keys so we should be OK.
6453
6454 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
6455 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
6456 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
6457 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
6458 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
6459 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
6460 stay in the name of compatibility.
6461
6462 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
6463 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
6464 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
6465
6466 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
6467 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
6468 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
6469 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
6470 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
6471 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
6472 supplied key).
6473 [Steve Henson]
6474
6475 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
6476 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
6477 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
6478 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
6479 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
6480 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
6481 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
6482 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
6483 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
6484 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
6485 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
6486 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
6487 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
6488 [Steve Henson]
6489
6490 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
6491 [Steve Henson]
6492
6493 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
6494 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
6495 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
6496 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
6497 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
6498 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
6499 single self signed certificate. This means that:
6500 openssl verify ss.pem
6501 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
6502 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
6503 is OK.
6504 [Steve Henson]
6505
6506 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
6507 (and add it to external session representation).
6508 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
6509 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
6510 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
6511 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
6512 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
6513 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
6514 security holes.
6515 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
6516
6517 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
6518 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
6519 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
6520 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
6521
6522 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
6523 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
6524 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
6525 [Steve Henson]
6526
6527 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
6528 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
6529 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
6530 code.
6531 [Steve Henson]
6532
6533 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
6534 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
6535 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
6536
6537 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
6538 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
6539 certificate auxiliary information.
6540 [Steve Henson]
6541
6542 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
6543 the 'enc' command.
6544 [Steve Henson]
6545
6546 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
6547 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
6548 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
6549 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
6550 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
6551 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
6552 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
6553 [Richard Levitte]
6554
6555 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
6556 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
6557 [Steve Henson]
6558
6559 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
6560 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
6561 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
6562 manpages and fix a few bugs.
6563 [Steve Henson]
6564
6565 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
6566 [Steve Henson]
6567
6568 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
6569 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
6570 [Steve Henson]
6571
6572 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
6573 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
6574 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
6575 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
6576 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
6577 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
6578 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
6579 using the new 'x509' options.
6580
6581 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
6582 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
6583 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
6584 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
6585 for all purposes.
6586 [Steve Henson]
6587
6588 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
6589 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
6590 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
6591 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
6592 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
6593 [Mark Cox]
6594
6595 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
6596 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
6597 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
6598 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
6599 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
6600 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
6601 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
6602 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
6603 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
6604 the key length and effective key length are equal.
6605 [Steve Henson]
6606
6607 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
6608 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
6609 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
6610 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
6611 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
6612 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
6613 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
6614 [Steve Henson]
6615
6616 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
6617 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
6618 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
6619 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
6620 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
6621 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
6622 openssl.cnf for more info.
6623 [Steve Henson]
6624
6625 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
6626 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
6627 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
6628 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
6629 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
6630 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
6631 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
6632 md should be large enough anyway.
6633 [Bodo Moeller]
6634
6635 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
6636 for handling the random seed file.
6637
6638 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
6639 ca,
6640 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
6641 s_client,
6642 s_server,
6643 x509 (when signing).
6644 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
6645 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
6646 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
6647
6648 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
6649 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
6650 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
6651 that support '-rand'.
6652 [Bodo Moeller]
6653
6654 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
6655 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
6656 [Bodo Moeller]
6657
6658 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
6659 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
6660 [Bill Perry]
6661
6662 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
6663 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
6664 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
6665 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
6666 is suitable.
6667 [Steve Henson]
6668
6669 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
6670 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
6671 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
6672 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
6673 [Steve Henson]
6674
6675 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
6676 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
6677 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
6678 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
6679 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
6680 print out all the purposes.
6681 [Steve Henson]
6682
6683 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
6684 functions.
6685 [Steve Henson]
6686
6687 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
6688 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
6689 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
6690 single function call.
6691 [Steve Henson]
6692
6693 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
6694 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
6695 [Andy Polyakov]
6696
6697 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
6698 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
6699 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
6700 [Steve Henson]
6701
6702 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
6703 when producing the local key id.
6704 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6705
6706 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
6707 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
6708 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
6709 "server.pem".
6710 [Steve Henson]
6711
6712 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
6713 a public key to be input or output. For example:
6714 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
6715 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
6716 [Steve Henson]
6717
6718 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
6719 in the message. This was handled by allowing
6720 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
6721 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
6722
6723 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
6724 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
6725 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
6726 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6727
6728 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
6729 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
6730 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
6731 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
6732 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
6733 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
6734 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
6735 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
6736 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
6737 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
6738 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
6739 trivial: move one line.
6740 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
6741
6742 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
6743 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
6744 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
6745 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
6746 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
6747 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
6748 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
6749 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
6750 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
6751 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
6752 with an event loop for example.
6753 [Steve Henson]
6754
6755 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
6756 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
6757 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
6758 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
6759 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
6760 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
6761 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
6762 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
6763 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
6764 [Steve Henson]
6765
6766 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
6767 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
6768 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
6769 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
6770 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
6771 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
6772 [Steve Henson]
6773
6774 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
6775 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
6776 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
6777 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
6778
6779 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
6780 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
6781 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
6782 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
6783 key generation.
6784 [Steve Henson]
6785
6786 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
6787 (still largely untested)
6788 [Bodo Moeller]
6789
6790 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
6791 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
6792 [Steve Henson]
6793
6794 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
6795 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
6796 [Steve Henson]
6797
6798 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
6799 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
6800 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
6801 [Bodo Moeller]
6802
6803 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
6804 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
6805 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
6806 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
6807 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
6808 [Steve Henson]
6809
6810 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
6811 [Andy Polyakov]
6812
6813 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
6814 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
6815 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
6816 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
6817 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
6818 in ca.
6819 [Steve Henson]
6820
6821 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
6822 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
6823 1.OU="Unit name 1"
6824 2.OU="Unit name 2"
6825 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
6826 [Steve Henson]
6827
6828 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
6829 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
6830 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
6831 are otherwise ignored at present.
6832 [Steve Henson]
6833
6834 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
6835 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
6836 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
6837 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
6838 copied until the next read.
6839 [Steve Henson]
6840
6841 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
6842 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
6843 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
6844 [Steve Henson]
6845
6846 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
6847 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
6848 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
6849 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
6850 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
6851 associated functions.
6852 [Steve Henson]
6853
6854 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
6855 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
6856 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
6857 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
6858 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
6859 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
6860 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
6861 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
6862 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
6863 memory BIOs.
6864 [Steve Henson]
6865
6866 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
6867 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
6868 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
6869 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
6870 [Bodo Moeller]
6871
6872 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
6873 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
6874 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
6875 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
6876 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
6877 functionality.
6878 [Steve Henson]
6879
6880 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
6881 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
6882 under Win32.
6883 [Steve Henson]
6884
6885 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
6886 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
6887 extensions to be obtained and added.
6888 [Steve Henson]
6889
6890 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
6891 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
6892 [Bodo Moeller]
6893
6894 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
6895
6896 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
6897 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6898
6899 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
6900 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
6901
6902 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
6903 program.
6904 [Steve Henson]
6905
6906 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
6907 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
6908 DH parameters contain its length).
6909
6910 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
6911 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
6912 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
6913 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
6914 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
6915 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
6916 utter importance to use
6917 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
6918 or
6919 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
6920 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
6921 attacks may become possible!
6922 [Bodo Moeller]
6923
6924 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
6925 [Bodo Moeller]
6926
6927 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
6928 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
6929 [Steve Henson]
6930
6931 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
6932 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
6933 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
6934 or long name.
6935 [Steve Henson]
6936
6937 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
6938 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
6939 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
6940 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
6941 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
6942 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
6943 private key operations.
6944 [Steve Henson]
6945
6946 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
6947 [Andy Polyakov]
6948
6949 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
6950 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
6951 to
6952 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
6953 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
6954 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
6955 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
6956 the password callback is called.
6957 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
6958
6959 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
6960
6961 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
6962 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
6963 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
6964 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
6965 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
6966 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
6967 this will work.
6968
6969 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
6970 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
6971 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
6972 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
6973 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
6974 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
6975 [Bodo Moeller]
6976
6977 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
6978 [Andy Polyakov]
6979
6980 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
6981 delete an unused file.
6982 [Ulf Möller]
6983
6984 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
6985 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
6986 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
6987 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
6988 [Steve Henson]
6989
6990 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
6991 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
6992 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
6993 of an error.
6994 [Bodo Moeller]
6995
6996 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
6997 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
6998 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6999
7000 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
7001 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
7002 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
7003 comparison" warnings.
7004 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
7005 [Steve Henson]
7006
7007 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
7008 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
7009 derived keys are printed to stderr.
7010 [Steve Henson]
7011
7012 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
7013 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
7014
7015 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
7016 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
7017
7018 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
7019 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
7020 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
7021
7022 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
7023 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
7024 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
7025 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
7026 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
7027 this bug.
7028 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
7029
7030 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
7031 The interface is as follows:
7032 Applications can use
7033 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
7034 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
7035 "off" is now the default.
7036 The library internally uses
7037 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
7038 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
7039 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
7040
7041 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
7042 even the default) are now avoided.
7043
7044 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
7045 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
7046 than just having a counter.
7047
7048 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
7049
7050 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
7051 extensions.
7052 [Bodo Moeller]
7053
7054 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
7055 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
7056 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
7057 Initial "mode" flags are:
7058
7059 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
7060 a single record has been written.
7061 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
7062 retries use the same buffer location.
7063 (But all of the contents must be
7064 copied!)
7065 [Bodo Moeller]
7066
7067 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
7068 worked.
7069
7070 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
7071 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
7072
7073 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
7074 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
7075 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
7076 [Steve Henson]
7077
7078 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
7079 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
7080 test programs.
7081 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
7082
7083 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
7084 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
7085 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
7086 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
7087 point to the end.
7088 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
7089 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
7090
7091 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
7092 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
7093 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
7094 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
7095 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
7096 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
7097 [Steve Henson]
7098
7099 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
7100 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
7101 necessary function names.
7102 [Steve Henson]
7103
7104 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
7105 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
7106 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
7107 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
7108 [Bodo Moeller]
7109
7110 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
7111 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
7112 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
7113 [Steve Henson]
7114
7115 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
7116 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
7117 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
7118 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
7119 such programs?)
7120 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
7121 need locks.
7122 [Bodo Moeller]
7123
7124 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
7125 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
7126 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
7127 [Bodo Moeller]
7128
7129 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
7130 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
7131 appropriate.
7132 [Bodo Moeller]
7133
7134 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
7135 for the encoded length.
7136 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
7137
7138 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
7139 [Steve Henson]
7140
7141 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
7142 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
7143 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
7144 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
7145 [Steve Henson]
7146
7147 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
7148 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
7149 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7150
7151 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
7152 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
7153 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
7154 unusual formatting.
7155 [Steve Henson]
7156
7157 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
7158 to use the new extension code.
7159 [Steve Henson]
7160
7161 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
7162 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
7163 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
7164 constant.
7165 [Steve Henson]
7166
7167 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
7168 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
7169 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
7170 [Bodo Moeller]
7171
7172 #if 0
7173 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
7174 [Ben Laurie]
7175 #else
7176 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
7177 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
7178 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
7179 #endif
7180
7181 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
7182 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
7183 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
7184 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
7185 [Ben Laurie]
7186
7187 *) DES library cleanups.
7188 [Ulf Möller]
7189
7190 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
7191 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
7192 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
7193 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
7194 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
7195 of v2.0.
7196 [Steve Henson]
7197
7198 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
7199 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
7200 [Bodo Moeller]
7201
7202 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
7203 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
7204 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
7205 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
7206 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
7207 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
7208 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
7209 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
7210 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
7211 [Steve Henson]
7212
7213 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
7214 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
7215 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
7216 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
7217 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
7218 value doesn't matter.
7219 [Steve Henson]
7220
7221 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
7222 support mutable.
7223 [Ben Laurie]
7224
7225 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
7226 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
7227 "linux-sparc" configuration.
7228 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
7229
7230 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
7231 [Ulf Möller]
7232
7233 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
7234 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
7235 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7236
7237 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
7238 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7239
7240 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
7241 [Ben Laurie]
7242
7243 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
7244 [Ben Laurie]
7245
7246 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
7247 [Ben Laurie]
7248
7249 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
7250 [Bodo Moeller]
7251
7252
7253 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
7254
7255 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
7256
7257 *) Updated some demos.
7258 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
7259
7260 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
7261 [Wu Zhigang]
7262
7263 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
7264 [Steve Henson]
7265
7266 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
7267 [Steve Henson]
7268
7269 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
7270 instead of using a fixed path.
7271 [Bodo Moeller]
7272
7273 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
7274 [Andy Polyakov]
7275
7276 *) Improvements for VMS support.
7277 [Richard Levitte]
7278
7279
7280 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
7281
7282 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
7283 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
7284 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7285
7286 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
7287 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
7288 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
7289 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
7290 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
7291 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
7292 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
7293 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
7294 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
7295 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
7296 [Steve Henson]
7297
7298 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
7299 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
7300 [Steve Henson]
7301
7302 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
7303 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
7304 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
7305 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
7306 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
7307
7308 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
7309 [Bodo Moeller]
7310
7311 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
7312 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
7313 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
7314 [Steve Henson]
7315
7316 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
7317 [Ben Laurie]
7318
7319 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
7320 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
7321 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
7322 key elements as negative integers.
7323 [Steve Henson]
7324
7325 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
7326 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7327
7328 *) VMS support.
7329 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
7330
7331 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
7332 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
7333 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
7334 [Steve Henson]
7335
7336 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
7337 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
7338 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
7339 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
7340 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
7341 [Bodo Moeller]
7342
7343 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
7344 [Ulf Möller]
7345
7346 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
7347 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
7348 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
7349 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7350
7351 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
7352 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
7353 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
7354
7355 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
7356 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
7357 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
7358 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
7359 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
7360 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
7361 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
7362 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
7363 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
7364
7365 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
7366 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
7367 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
7368 does not influence s as it used to.
7369
7370 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
7371 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
7372 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
7373 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
7374 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
7375 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
7376 [Bodo Moeller]
7377
7378 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
7379 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
7380 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
7381 key type.
7382 [Steve Henson]
7383
7384 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
7385 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
7386 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
7387 and 'x509').
7388 [Steve Henson]
7389
7390 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
7391 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
7392 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
7393 extension option.
7394 [Steve Henson]
7395
7396 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
7397 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
7398 [Ben Laurie]
7399
7400 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
7401 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7402
7403 *) Support Mingw32.
7404 [Ulf Möller]
7405
7406 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
7407 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7408
7409 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
7410 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7411
7412 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
7413 [Ulf Möller]
7414
7415 *) Update HPUX configuration.
7416 [Anonymous]
7417
7418 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
7419 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7420
7421 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
7422 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
7423 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
7424 DER-encoded.)
7425 [Bodo Moeller]
7426
7427 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
7428 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
7429 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
7430 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
7431 now it really counts the depth.
7432 [Bodo Moeller]
7433
7434 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
7435 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
7436 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
7437 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
7438 didn't match the private key).
7439
7440 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
7441 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
7442 connection using the SSL_CTX).
7443 [Bodo Moeller]
7444
7445 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
7446 [Ulf Möller]
7447
7448 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
7449 David Harris.
7450 [Bodo Moeller]
7451
7452 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
7453 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
7454 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
7455 [Bodo Moeller]
7456
7457 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
7458 [Bodo Moeller]
7459
7460 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
7461 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
7462 such as /usr/local/bin.
7463 [Bodo Moeller]
7464
7465 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
7466 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7467
7468 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
7469 [Ulf Möller]
7470
7471 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
7472 extension adding in x509 utility.
7473 [Steve Henson]
7474
7475 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
7476 [Ulf Möller]
7477
7478 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
7479 prototypes.
7480 [Steve Henson]
7481
7482 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
7483 [Ulf Möller]
7484
7485 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
7486 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
7487 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
7488 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
7489 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
7490 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
7491 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
7492 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
7493 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
7494 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
7495 [Steve Henson]
7496
7497 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
7498 [Bodo Moeller]
7499
7500 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
7501 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
7502 [Bodo Moeller]
7503
7504 *) Fix some race conditions.
7505 [Bodo Moeller]
7506
7507 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
7508 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
7509 [Steve Henson]
7510
7511 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
7512 [Ulf Möller]
7513
7514 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
7515 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
7516 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
7517 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
7518
7519 *) Fix lots of warnings.
7520 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7521
7522 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
7523 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
7524 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7525
7526 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
7527 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7528
7529 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
7530 [Ulf Möller]
7531
7532 *) Fix typos in error codes.
7533 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
7534
7535 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
7536 [Ulf Möller]
7537
7538 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
7539 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7540
7541 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
7542 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
7543 [Steve Henson]
7544
7545 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
7546 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
7547 [Ben Laurie]
7548
7549 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
7550 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
7551 [Steve Henson]
7552
7553 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
7554 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
7555 [Steve Henson]
7556
7557 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
7558 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
7559 [Steve Henson]
7560
7561 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
7562 support typesafe stack.
7563 [Steve Henson]
7564
7565 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
7566 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
7567
7568 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
7569 old X509V3 handling code.
7570 [Steve Henson]
7571
7572 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
7573 [Ulf Möller]
7574
7575 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
7576 [Bodo Moeller]
7577
7578 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
7579 [Ben Laurie]
7580
7581 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
7582 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
7583
7584 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
7585 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
7586 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
7587 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
7588 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
7589 [Ben Laurie]
7590
7591 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
7592 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
7593 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
7594 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
7595 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
7596
7597 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
7598 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
7599 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
7600 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7601
7602 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
7603 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
7604 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
7605 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7606
7607 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
7608 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
7609 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
7610 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
7611 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
7612 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
7613 [Bodo Moeller]
7614
7615 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
7616 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
7617 [Bodo Moeller]
7618
7619 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
7620 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
7621 [Ulf Möller]
7622
7623 *) Tweaks to Configure
7624 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7625
7626 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
7627 yet...
7628 [Steve Henson]
7629
7630 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
7631 [Ulf Möller]
7632
7633 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
7634 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
7635 [Ulf Möller]
7636
7637 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
7638 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
7639 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
7640 [Bodo Moeller]
7641
7642 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
7643 [Bodo Moeller]
7644
7645 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
7646 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
7647 [Steve Henson]
7648
7649 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
7650 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
7651 to library startup routines.
7652 [Steve Henson]
7653
7654 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
7655 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
7656 codes along the way.
7657 [Steve Henson]
7658
7659 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
7660 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
7661 objects to objects.h
7662 [Steve Henson]
7663
7664 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
7665 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
7666 [Steve Henson]
7667
7668 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
7669 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
7670
7671 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
7672 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
7673 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
7674
7675 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
7676 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
7677 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7678
7679 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
7680 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
7681 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
7682
7683
7684 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
7685
7686 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
7687 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
7688 [Ben Laurie]
7689
7690 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
7691 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
7692 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
7693 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
7694 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
7695
7696 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
7697 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
7698 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
7699 document.
7700 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7701
7702 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
7703 Malloc, Free.
7704 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
7705
7706 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
7707 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7708
7709 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
7710 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
7711 if someone would make that last step automatic.
7712 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
7713
7714 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
7715 [Ben Laurie]
7716
7717 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
7718 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
7719 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
7720 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
7721 [Steve Henson]
7722
7723 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
7724 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
7725 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
7726 [Steve Henson]
7727
7728 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
7729 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
7730 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
7731 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
7732 installed as `perl').
7733 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7734
7735 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
7736 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7737
7738 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
7739 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
7740 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
7741 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
7742 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
7743 [Steve Henson]
7744
7745 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
7746 [Ben Laurie]
7747
7748 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
7749 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
7750 is horrible: I feel ill....
7751 [Steve Henson]
7752
7753 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
7754 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
7755 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
7756 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
7757 [Steve Henson]
7758
7759 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
7760 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7761
7762 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
7763 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
7764 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
7765 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7766
7767 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
7768 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
7769 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
7770 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
7771 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
7772 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
7773 openssl_bio.xs.
7774 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7775
7776 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
7777 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
7778
7779 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
7780 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
7781
7782 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
7783 [Ben Laurie]
7784
7785 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
7786 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
7787 in CRLs.
7788 [Steve Henson]
7789
7790 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
7791 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
7792 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
7793 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
7794 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
7795 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
7796 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
7797 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
7798 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
7799 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
7800 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7801
7802 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
7803 [Ben Laurie]
7804
7805 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
7806 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
7807 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
7808 for linking it into DSOs.
7809 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7810
7811 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
7812 Fixed.
7813 [Ben Laurie]
7814
7815 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
7816 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
7817 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
7818 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
7819 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
7820 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7821
7822 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
7823 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
7824 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
7825 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
7826 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
7827 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
7828 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7829
7830 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
7831 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
7832 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
7833 encryption.
7834 [Ben Laurie]
7835
7836 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
7837 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
7838 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
7839 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
7840 [Steve Henson]
7841
7842 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
7843 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
7844 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
7845 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
7846 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
7847 field as blank.
7848 [Steve Henson]
7849
7850 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
7851 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
7852 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
7853 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
7854 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7855
7856 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
7857 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
7858 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
7859
7860 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
7861 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
7862
7863 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
7864 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
7865 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
7866 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
7867 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
7868 [Steve Henson]
7869
7870 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
7871 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
7872 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
7873 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
7874 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
7875 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
7876 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
7877 [Ben Laurie]
7878
7879 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
7880 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
7881 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
7882 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
7883 [Ben Laurie]
7884
7885 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
7886 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
7887
7888 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
7889 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
7890 [Steve Henson]
7891
7892 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
7893 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
7894 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
7895 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
7896 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
7897 (e.g. s_server).
7898 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
7899 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
7900 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
7901 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
7902 no way to reconfigure them.
7903 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
7904 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
7905 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
7906 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
7907 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
7908 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7909
7910 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
7911 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
7912 recognized by the users.
7913 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7914
7915 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
7916 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
7917 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
7918 already masked variable.
7919 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7920
7921 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
7922 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7923
7924 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
7925 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
7926 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
7927 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7928
7929 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
7930 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
7931 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7932
7933 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
7934 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
7935 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
7936 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
7937 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
7938 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
7939 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
7940 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
7941 now, too.
7942 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7943
7944 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
7945 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
7946 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7947
7948 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
7949 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
7950 config file.
7951 [Steve Henson]
7952
7953 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
7954 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
7955
7956 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
7957 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
7958 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
7959 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
7960 [Ben Laurie]
7961
7962 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
7963 [Steve Henson]
7964
7965 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
7966 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7967
7968 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
7969 [Ben Laurie]
7970
7971 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
7972 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
7973 [Steve Henson]
7974
7975 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
7976 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
7977 [Steve Henson]
7978
7979 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
7980 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
7981 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
7982 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
7983 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
7984 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
7985 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
7986 Ben Laurie]
7987
7988 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
7989 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7990
7991 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
7992 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
7993 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
7994 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
7995 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
7996
7997 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
7998 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
7999 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
8000 [Steve Henson]
8001
8002 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
8003 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
8004 an example.
8005 [Steve Henson]
8006
8007 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
8008 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
8009 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8010
8011 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
8012 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
8013 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
8014 build instructions.
8015 [Steve Henson]
8016
8017 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
8018 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
8019 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
8020 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
8021 [Steve Henson]
8022
8023 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
8024 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
8025 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
8026 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
8027 [Ben Laurie]
8028
8029 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
8030 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
8031 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
8032 so it wasn't spotted.
8033 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
8034
8035 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
8036 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
8037 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
8038 vectors if you have them.
8039 [Ben Laurie]
8040
8041 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
8042 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
8043 [Ben Laurie]
8044
8045 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
8046 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
8047 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
8048 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
8049 If you do a:
8050 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
8051 it will update them.
8052 [Steve Henson]
8053
8054 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
8055 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
8056 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
8057 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
8058 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
8059 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
8060 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
8061 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8062
8063 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
8064 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
8065 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
8066 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
8067 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
8068 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
8069 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
8070 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
8071 the crypto/md/ stuff).
8072 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8073
8074 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
8075 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
8076 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
8077 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
8078 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
8079 [Steve Henson]
8080
8081 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
8082 INTEGER code.
8083 [Steve Henson]
8084
8085 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
8086 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8087
8088 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
8089 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8090
8091 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
8092 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
8093 [Ben Laurie]
8094
8095 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
8096 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
8097
8098 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
8099 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
8100
8101 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
8102 [Steve Henson]
8103
8104 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
8105 few typos.
8106 [Steve Henson]
8107
8108 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
8109 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
8110 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
8111 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8112
8113 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8114 [Steve Henson]
8115
8116 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8117 [Steve Henson]
8118
8119 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
8120 [Steve Henson]
8121
8122 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
8123 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
8124 [Steve Henson]
8125
8126 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
8127 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
8128 CA extensions.
8129 [Steve Henson]
8130
8131 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
8132 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
8133 [Steve Henson]
8134
8135 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
8136 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
8137 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
8138 [Steve Henson]
8139
8140 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
8141 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
8142 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
8143 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
8144 properly to be processed.
8145 [Steve Henson]
8146
8147 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
8148 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
8149 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
8150 [Ben Laurie]
8151
8152 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
8153 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
8154
8155 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
8156 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
8157 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
8158 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
8159 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
8160 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
8161 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
8162 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
8163 or delete all the .err files.
8164 [Steve Henson]
8165
8166 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
8167 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
8168 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
8169 to regenerate it if needed.
8170 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
8171 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
8172
8173 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
8174 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8175
8176 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
8177 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
8178 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
8179 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
8180 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
8181 [Steve Henson]
8182
8183 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
8184 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8185
8186 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
8187 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8188
8189 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
8190 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
8191 error, but didn't set one).
8192 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8193
8194 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
8195 [Ben Laurie]
8196
8197 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
8198 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
8199 [Steve Henson]
8200
8201 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
8202 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
8203
8204 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
8205 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
8206 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
8207 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
8208 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
8209 OID is not part of the table.
8210 [Steve Henson]
8211
8212 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
8213 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
8214 [Ben Laurie]
8215
8216 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
8217 [Ben Laurie]
8218
8219 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
8220 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
8221 was "1234").
8222 [Steve Henson]
8223
8224 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
8225 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
8226
8227 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
8228 NULL pointers.
8229 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8230
8231 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
8232 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8233
8234 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
8235 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8236
8237 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
8238 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8239
8240 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
8241 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
8242 [Ben Laurie]
8243
8244 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
8245 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
8246 [Steve Henson]
8247
8248 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
8249 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8250
8251 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
8252 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8253
8254 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
8255 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8256
8257 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
8258 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8259
8260 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
8261 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
8262 unused in the certificate verification process.
8263 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8264
8265 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
8266 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
8267 [Steve Henson]
8268
8269 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
8270 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
8271 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
8272
8273 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
8274 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
8275 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
8276 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
8277 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
8278
8279 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
8280 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
8281 [Steve Henson]
8282
8283 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
8284 [Steve Henson]
8285
8286 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
8287 [Paul Sutton]
8288
8289 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
8290 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
8291
8292 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
8293 [Ben Laurie]
8294
8295 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
8296 [Ben Laurie]
8297
8298 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
8299 [Ben Laurie]
8300
8301 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
8302 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
8303 other error libraries.
8304 [Steve Henson]
8305
8306 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
8307 [Steve Henson]
8308
8309 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
8310 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
8311 be read in.
8312 [Steve Henson]
8313
8314 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
8315 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
8316 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
8317 the new set of documenation files.
8318 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8319
8320 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
8321 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
8322 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
8323 number of arguments.
8324 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
8325
8326 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
8327 [Ben Laurie]
8328
8329 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
8330 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
8331 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8332
8333 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
8334 [Ben Laurie]
8335
8336 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
8337 nextstep
8338 ncr-scde
8339 unixware-2.0
8340 unixware-2.0-pentium
8341 sco5-cc.
8342 [Ben Laurie]
8343
8344 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
8345 before they are needed.
8346 [Ben Laurie]
8347
8348 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
8349 [Ben Laurie]
8350
8351
8352 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
8353
8354 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
8355 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
8356 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8357
8358 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
8359 [Paul Sutton]
8360
8361 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
8362 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
8363 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8364
8365 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
8366 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
8367 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
8368
8369 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
8370 when "ssleay" is still not found.
8371 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8372
8373 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
8374 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
8375
8376 *) Updated the README file.
8377 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8378
8379 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
8380 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
8381 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8382
8383 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
8384 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
8385 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8386
8387 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
8388 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
8389 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
8390 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
8391 o removed obsolete TODO file
8392 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
8393 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8394
8395 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
8396 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
8397 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
8398 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
8399 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
8400 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
8401 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8402
8403 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
8404 [Mark J. Cox]
8405
8406 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
8407 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
8408 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
8409 summer 1998.
8410 [The OpenSSL Project]
8411
8412
8413 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
8414
8415 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
8416 [Eric A. Young]
8417
8418 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
8419 [Eric A. Young]
8420
8421 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
8422 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
8423 [Eric A. Young]
8424
8425 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
8426 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
8427 available).
8428 [Eric A. Young]
8429
8430 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
8431 binary structures
8432 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
8433
8434 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
8435 [Eric A. Young]
8436
8437 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
8438 [Eric A. Young]
8439
8440 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
8441 [Eric A. Young]
8442
8443 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
8444 [Eric A. Young]
8445
8446 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
8447 [Eric A. Young]
8448
8449 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
8450 [Eric A. Young]
8451
8452 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
8453 [Eric A. Young]
8454
8455 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
8456 [Eric A. Young]
8457
8458 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
8459 [Eric A. Young]
8460
8461 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
8462 [Eric A. Young]
8463
8464 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
8465 [Eric A. Young]
8466
8467 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
8468 [Eric A. Young]
8469
8470 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
8471 [Eric A. Young]
8472
8473 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
8474 [Eric A. Young]
8475
8476 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
8477 [Eric A. Young]
8478
8479 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
8480 [Eric A. Young]
8481
8482 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
8483 [Eric A. Young]
8484
8485 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
8486 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
8487 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
8488 [Eric A. Young]
8489
8490 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
8491 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
8492 [Eric A. Young]
8493
8494 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
8495 [Eric A. Young]
8496
8497 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
8498 [Eric A. Young]
8499
8500 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
8501 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
8502 [Eric A. Young]
8503
8504 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
8505 [Eric A. Young]
8506
8507 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
8508 [Eric A. Young]
8509
8510 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
8511 bytes sent in the client random.
8512 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
8513
