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

1287
1288 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
1289
1290 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
1291
1292 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
1293 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
1294 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
1295 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
1296 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
1297 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
1298 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
1299 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
1300 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
1301 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
1302 key that is shared between multiple clients.
1303
1304 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
1305 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
1306
1307 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
1308 (CVE-2017-3736)
1309 [Andy Polyakov]
1310
1311 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
1312
1313 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
1314 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
1315 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
1316
1317 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
1318 (CVE-2017-3735)

1320
1321 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
1322
1323 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
1324 platform rather than 'mingw'.
1325 [Richard Levitte]
1326
1327 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
1328 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
1329 which is the minimum version we support.

1331
1332 Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
1333
1334 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
1335
1336 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
1337 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
1338 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
1339 and servers are affected.
1340
1341 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).

1345 Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
1346
1347 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
1348
1349 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
1350 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
1351 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
1352
1353 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
1354 (CVE-2017-3731)
1355 [Andy Polyakov]
1356
1357 *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
1358
1359 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
1360 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
1361 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
1362 of Service attack.
1363
1364 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
1365 (CVE-2017-3730)
1366 [Matt Caswell]
1367
1368 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
1369
1370 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
1371 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
1372 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
1373 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
1374 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
1375 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
1376 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
1377 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
1378 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
1379 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
1380 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
1381 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
1382 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
1383
1384 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.

1389
1390 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
1391
1392 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
1393 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
1394 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.

1397 (CVE-2016-7054)
1398 [Richard Levitte]
1399
1400 *) CMS Null dereference
1401
1402 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
1403 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
1404 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
1405 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
1406 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
1407 affected.
1408
1409 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
1410 (CVE-2016-7053)
1411 [Stephen Henson]
1412
1413 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
1414
1415 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
1416 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
1417 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
1418 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
1419 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
1420 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
1421 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
1422 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
1423 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
1424 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
1425 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
1426 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
1427 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
1428 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
1429
1430 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
1431 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
1432 providing reproducible case.
1433 (CVE-2016-7055)
1434 [Andy Polyakov]
1435
1436 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
1437 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.

1439
1440 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
1441
1442 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
1443
1444 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
1445 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
1446 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
1447 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
1448 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
1449 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
1450
1451 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.

1457 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
1458
1459 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
1460
1461 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
1462 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
1463 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
1464 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
1465 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
1466 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
1467 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.

1470 (CVE-2016-6304)
1471 [Matt Caswell]
1472
1473 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
1474
1475 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
1476 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
1477 Denial Of Service attack.
1478
1479 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
1480 (CVE-2016-6305)
1481 [Matt Caswell]
1482
1483 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
1484 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
1485
1486 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
1487 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
1488 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
1489 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
1490 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
1491 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
1492 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
1493 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
1494 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
1495 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
1496 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
1497 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
1498 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
1499 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
1500 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
1501
1502 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
1503 that the connection fails
1504 or
1505 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
1506 very little free memory
1507 or
1508 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
1509 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
1510 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
1511 memory to service the multiple requests.
1512
1513 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
1514 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
1515 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
1516 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
1517 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
1518
1519 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1520 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
1521 [Matt Caswell]
1522
1523 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
1524 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
1525 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
1526 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
1527 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
1528 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
1529 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
1530 [Andy Polyakov]
1531
1532 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
1533
1534 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
1535 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
1536 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
1537 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
1538 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
1539 non-ASCII password.
1540 [Andy Polyakov]
1541
1542 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
1543 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
1544 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
1545 [Rich Salz]
1546
1547 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
1548 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
1549 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
1550 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
1551 [Matt Caswell]
1552
1553 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
1554 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
1555 success.
1556 [Matt Caswell]
1557
1558 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
1559 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
1560 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
1561 no-ops and deprecated.
1562 [Matt Caswell]
1563
1564 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
1565 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
1566 were also closed.
1567 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
1568
1569 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
1570 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
1571 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
1572 [Rich Salz]
1573
1574 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
1575 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
1576 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
1577 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
1578 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
1579 and the validity of object reference counter.
1580 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
1581
1582 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
1583 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
1584 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
1585 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
1586 [Richard Levitte]
1587
1588 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
1589 [Richard Levitte]
1590
1591 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
1592 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
1593 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
1594 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
1595
1596 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
1597
1598 [Richard Levitte]
1599
1600 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
1601 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
1602 [Steve Henson]
1603
1604 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
1605 [Andy Polyakov]
1606
1607 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
1608 [Rich Salz]
1609
1610 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
1611 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
1612 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
1613 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
1614 name and is used as is.
1615 [Richard Levitte]
1616
1617 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
1618 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
1619 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
1620 [Rich Salz]
1621
1622 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
1623 the "no-shared" Configure option.
1624 [Matt Caswell]
1625
1626 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
1627 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
1628 algorithms.
1629 [Matt Caswell]
1630
1631 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
1632 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
1633 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
1634 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
1635 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
1636 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
1637 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
1638 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
1639 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
1640 [Matt Caswell]
1641
1642 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
1643 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
1644 enabled with '--debug' builds.
1645 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
1646
1647 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
1648 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1649 these have been added.
1650 [Matt Caswell]
1651
1652 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
1653 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
1654 functions for managing these have been added.
1655 [Richard Levitte]
1656
1657 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1658 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1659 these have been added.
1660 [Matt Caswell]
1661
1662 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1663 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1664 have been added.
1665 [Matt Caswell]
1666
1667 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1668 [Matt Caswell]
1669
1670 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1671 [Richard Levitte]
1672
1673 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1674 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1675 [Rich Salz]
1676
1677 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1678 [Richard Levitte]
1679
1680 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1681 [Rich Salz]
1682
1683 *) Add support for HKDF.
1684 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1685
1686 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1687 [Bill Cox]
1688
1689 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1690 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1691 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1692 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1693 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1694 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1695 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1696 [Matt Caswell]
1697
1698 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1699 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1700 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1701 [Catriona Lucey]
1702
1703 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1704 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1705 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1706 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1707 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1708 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1709 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1710
1711 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1712 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1713 [Todd Short]
1714
1715 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1716 [Todd Short]
1717
1718 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1719 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1720 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1721 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1722 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1723 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1724 default cipherlist.
1725 [Emilia Käsper]
1726
1727 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1728 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1729 [Rich Salz]
1730
1731 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1732 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1733 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1734 [Matt Caswell]
1735
1736 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1737 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1738 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1739 implemented by other servers.
1740 [Emilia Käsper]
1741
1742 *) Add X25519 support.
1743 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1744 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1745 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1746 key generation and key derivation.
1747
1748 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1749 X25519(29).
1750 [Steve Henson]
1751
1752 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1753 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1754 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1755 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1756 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1757
1758 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1759 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1760 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1761 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1762 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1763 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1764 that of a valid user.
1765 [Emilia Käsper]
1766
1767 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1768 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1769 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1770 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1771
1772 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1773 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1774
1775 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1776 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1777 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1778 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1779
1780 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1781 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1782 irrelevant.
1783 [Richard Levitte]
1784
1785 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1786 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1787 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1788 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1789 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1790 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1791
1792 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1793 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1794 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1795 [Richard Levitte]
1796
1797 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1798 [Rich Salz]
1799
1800 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1801 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1802 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1803 removed.
1804 [Richard Levitte]
1805
1806 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1807 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1808 old #define's might need to be updated.
1809 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1810
1811 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1812 [Rich Salz]
1813
1814 *) New "unified" build system
1815
1816 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1817 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1818
1819 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1820 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1821 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1822
1823 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1824 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1825 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1826 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1827 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1828
1829 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1830 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1831 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1832 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1833 libraries" in INSTALL.
1834
1835 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1836 [Richard Levitte]
1837
1838 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1839 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1840 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1841 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1842 [Matt Caswell]
1843
1844 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1845 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1846
1847 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1848 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1849 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1850 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1851 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1852 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1853 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1854 have been adapted accordingly.
1855 [Richard Levitte]
1856
1857 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1858 the leading 0-byte.
1859 [Emilia Käsper]
1860
1861 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1862 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1863 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1864 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1865 [Emilia Käsper]
1866
1867 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1868 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1869 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1870 'unsigned char*'.
1871 [Emilia Käsper]
1872
1873 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1874 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1875 [Emilia Käsper]
1876
1877 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1878 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1879 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1880 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1881 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1882 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1883 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1884
1885 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1886 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1887
1888 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1889 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1890 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1891 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1892 Text::Template.
1893
1894 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1895 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1896 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1897 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1898 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1899 %target).
1900 [Richard Levitte]
1901
1902 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1903 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1904 straightforward and less interdependent.
1905
1906 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1907 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1908 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1909
1910 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1911 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1912 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1913 installed.
1914 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1915 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1916 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1917 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1918
1919 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1920 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1921 [Richard Levitte]
1922
1923 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1924 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1925 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1926 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1927 is present).
1928 [Matt Caswell]
1929
1930 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1931 configuring.
1932 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1933
1934 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1935 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1936 before trying to build now.*
1937 [Rich Salz]
1938
1939 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1940 has changed.
1941 [Rich Salz]
1942
1943 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1944
1945 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1946 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1947 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
1948 used to authenticate the peer.
1949
1950 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
1951 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
1952 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
1953 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
1954 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
1955 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1956
1957 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
1958 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
1959 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
1960 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
1961 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
1962 or the 1.1.0 releases.
1963
1964 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
1965 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
1966 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
1967 support for the deprecated features from the library and
1968 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
1969 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
1970 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
1971 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
1972 version.
1973
1974 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
1975 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
1976 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
1977 compile with later releases.
1978
1979 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
1980 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
1981 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
1982 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
1983 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
1984 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1985
1986 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
1987 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
1988 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
1989 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
1990 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
1991 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
1992 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
1993 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
1994 [Kurt Roeckx]
1995
1996 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
1997 [Andy Polyakov]
1998
1999 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
2000 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
2001 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
2002 ECDSA_SIG format.
2003
2004 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
2005 include the ec.h header file instead.
2006 [Steve Henson]
2007
2008 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
2009 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
2010 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
2011 [Kurt Roeckx]
2012
2013 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
2014 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
2015 were added:
2016
2017 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
2018 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
2019
2020 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
2021 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
2022 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
2023
2024 Additional changes:
2025 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
2026 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
2027 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
2028 an already created structure.
2029 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
2030 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
2031 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
2032 for deprecated builds.
2033 [Richard Levitte]
2034
2035 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
2036 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
2037 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
2038 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
2039 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
2040 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
2041 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
2042 [Matt Caswell]
2043
2044 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
2045 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
2046 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
2047 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
2048 [Kurt Roeckx]
2049
2050 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
2051 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
2052 [Kurt Roeckx]
2053
2054 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
2055 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
2056 [Kurt Roeckx]
2057
2058 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
2059 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
2060 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
2061 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
2062 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
2063 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
2064 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
2065 also been removed.
2066 [Matt Caswell]
2067
2068 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
2069 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
2070 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
2071 [Rich Salz]
2072
2073 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
2074 [Rich Salz]
2075
2076 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
2077 sureware and ubsec.
2078 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
2079
2080 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
2081
2082 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
2083 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
2084
2085 FOO *x;
2086
2087 it must be:
2088
2089 FOO x;
2090
2091 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
2092 set a mandatory field to NULL.
2093
2094 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
2095 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
2096 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
2097 SEQUENCE OF.
2098 [Steve Henson]
2099
2100 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
2101 [Emilia Käsper]
2102
2103 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
2104 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
2105 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
2106 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
2107 [Matt Caswell]
2108
2109 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2110 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
2111 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
2112 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
2113 [Emilia Käsper]
2114
2115 *) Fix no-stdio build.
2116 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
2117 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
2118
2119 *) New testing framework
2120 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
2121 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
2122 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
2123 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
2124 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
2125 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
2126
2127 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
2128
2129 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
2130 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
2131
2132 [Richard Levitte]
2133
2134 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
2135 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
2136 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
2137 and others were changed. All are now documented.
2138 [Rich Salz]
2139
2140 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
2141 return an error
2142 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
2143
2144 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
2145 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
2146
2147 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
2148 original RSA_PSK patch.
2149 [Steve Henson]
2150
2151 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
2152 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
2153 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
2154 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
2155 [Matt Caswell]
2156
2157 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
2158 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
2159 [Richard Levitte]
2160
2161 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
2162 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
2163 hasn't been working properly for a while.
2164 [Emilia Käsper]
2165
2166 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
2167 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
2168 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
2169 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
2170 transferred.
2171 [Matt Caswell]
2172
2173 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
2174 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
2175 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
2176 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
2177 [Matt Caswell]
2178
2179 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
2180 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
2181 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
2182 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
2183 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
2184 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
2185 [Matt Caswell]
2186
2187 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
2188 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
2189 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
2190 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
2191 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
2192 header file has been removed.
2193 [Matt Caswell]
2194
2195 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
2196 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
2197 [Matt Caswell]
2198
2199 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
2200 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
2201 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
2202
2203 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
2204 Added a test.
2205 [Rich Salz]
2206
2207 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
2208 [Rich Salz]
2209
2210 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
2211 sha256
2212 [Rich Salz]
2213
2214 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
2215 [Matt Caswell]
2216
2217 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
2218 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
2219 initial patch which was a great help during development.
2220 [Steve Henson]
2221
2222 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
2223 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
2224 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
2225 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
2226 [Matt Caswell]
2227
2228 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
2229 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
2230 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
2231 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
2232 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
2233 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
2234 [Matt Caswell]
2235
2236 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
2237 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
2238 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
2239 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
2240 [Matt Caswell]
2241
2242 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
2243 compatible client hello.
2244 [Kurt Roeckx]
2245
2246 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
2247 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
2248 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
2249
2250 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
2251 [Rich Salz]
2252
2253 *) Removed old DES API.
2254 [Rich Salz]
2255
2256 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
2257 Sony NEWS4
2258 BEOS and BEOS_R5
2259 NeXT
2260 SUNOS
2261 MPE/iX
2262 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
2263 DGUX
2264 NCR
2265 Tandem
2266 Cray
2267 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
2268 [Rich Salz]
2269
2270 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
2271 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
2272 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
2273 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
2274 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
2275 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
2276 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
2277 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
2278 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
2279 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
2280 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
2281 [Rich Salz]
2282
2283 *) Cleaned up dead code
2284 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
2285 [Rich Salz]
2286
2287 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
2288 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
2289 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
2290 [Rich Salz]
2291
2292 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
2293 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
2294 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
2295 [Rich Salz]
2296
2297 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
2298 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
2299 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
2300
2301 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
2302 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
2303 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
2304
2305 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
2306 compilation flags.
2307 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2308
2309 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
2310 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
2311 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2312
2313 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
2314 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2315
2316 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
2317 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
2318 server.
2319
2320 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
2321 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
2322 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
2323 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
2324
2325 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
2326 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
2327 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
2328 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
2329
2330 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
2331 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
2332 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
2333
2334 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2335 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2336 [Steve Henson]
2337
2338 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
2339
2340 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
2341 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
2342
2343 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
2344 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
2345
2346 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
2347 effect.
2348
2349 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
2350
2351 [Steve Henson]
2352
2353 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2354 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2355 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2356 algorithms and include tests cases.
2357 [Steve Henson]
2358
2359 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
2360 enveloped data.
2361 [Steve Henson]
2362
2363 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2364 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2365 [Steve Henson]
2366
2367 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
2368 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
2369
2370 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
2371 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
2372 [Steve Henson]
2373
2374 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
2375 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
2376 failures.
2377 [Steve Henson]
2378
2379 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
2380 sign or verify all in one operation.
2381 [Steve Henson]
2382
2383 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
2384 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
2385 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
2386 [Steve Henson]
2387
2388 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
2389 [Steve Henson]
2390
2391 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
2392 [Steve Henson]
2393
2394 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
2395 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
2396 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
2397 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
2398 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
2399 [Steve Henson]
2400
2401 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
2402 based on NID.
2403 [Steve Henson]
2404
2405 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
2406 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
2407 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
2408 [Steve Henson]
2409
2410 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
2411 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
2412
2413 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
2414 POST to handle HMAC cases.
2415 [Steve Henson]
2416
2417 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
2418 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
2419 [Steve Henson]
2420
2421 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
2422 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
2423 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2424 [Steve Henson]
2425
2426 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
2427 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
2428 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
2429 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
2430 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
2431 requested amount of entropy.
2432 [Steve Henson]
2433
2434 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
2435 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
2436 [Steve Henson]
2437
2438 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
2439 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
2440 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
2441 support.
2442 [Steve Henson]
2443
2444 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
2445 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
2446 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
2447 [Steve Henson]
2448
2449 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
2450 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
2451 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
2452 will never use XTS mode.
2453 [Steve Henson]
2454
2455 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
2456 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
2457 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
2458 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
2459 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
2460 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
2461 [Steve Henson]
2462
2463 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
2464 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
2465 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
2466 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
2470 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
2471 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
2472 [Steve Henson]
2473
2474 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
2475 [Steve Henson]
2476
2477 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
2478 [Steve Henson]
2479
2480 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
2481 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
2482 [Steve Henson]
2483
2484 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
2485 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
2486 [Steve Henson]
2487
2488 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
2489 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
2490 [Steve Henson]
2491
2492 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
2493 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
2494 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
2495 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
2496 and rename any affected symbols.
2497 [Steve Henson]
2498
2499 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
2500 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
2501 [Steve Henson]
2502
2503 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
2504 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
2505 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
2506 [Steve Henson]
2507
2508 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2509 [Steve Henson]
2510
2511 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
2512 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
2513 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
2514 [Steve Henson]
2515
2516 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
2517 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
2518 [Steve Henson]
2519
2520 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
2521 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
2522 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
2523 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
2524 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
2525 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
2526 set before the key.
2527 [Steve Henson]
2528
2529 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
2530 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
2531 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
2532 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
2533 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
2534 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
2535 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
2536 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
2537 [Steve Henson]
2538
2539 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
2540 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
2541 [Steve Henson]
2542
2543 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
2544
2545 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2546 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2547
2548 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
2549 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
2550 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
2551 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
2552 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
2553 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
2554
2555 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
2556 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
2557 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
2558 security.
2559 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2560
2561 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
2562 parameters by name.
2563 [Steve Henson]
2564
2565 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
2566 Add CMAC pkey methods.
2567 [Steve Henson]
2568
2569 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
2570 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
2571 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
2572 [Steve Henson]
2573
2574 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
2575 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
2576 multi-process servers.
2577 [Steve Henson]
2578
2579 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
2580 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
2581 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
2582 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
2583 RAND_METHOD structure.
2584 [Steve Henson]
2585
2586 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
2587 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
2588 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
2589 whose return value is often ignored.
2590 [Steve Henson]
2591
2592 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
2593 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
2594 validated when establishing a connection.
2595 [Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>]

2597 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
2598
2599 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
2600
2601 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
2602 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
2603 AES-NI.
2604
2605 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
2606 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
2607 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
2608 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
2609 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
2610 bytes.
2611
2612 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
2613 (CVE-2016-2107)
2614 [Kurt Roeckx]
2615
2616 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
2617
2618 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
2619 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
2620 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
2621 corruption.
2622
2623 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
2624 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
2625 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
2626 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
2627 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
2628 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
2629
2630 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2631 (CVE-2016-2105)
2632 [Matt Caswell]
2633
2634 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
2635
2636 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
2637 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
2638 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
2639 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
2640 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
2641 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
2642 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
2643 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
2644 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
2645 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
2646 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
2647 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
2648 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
2649 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
2650 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
2651 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
2652
2653 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2654 (CVE-2016-2106)
2655 [Matt Caswell]
2656
2657 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2658
2659 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2660 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2661 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2662
2663 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2664 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2665 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2666 applications are not affected.
2667
2668 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
2669 (CVE-2016-2109)
2670 [Stephen Henson]
2671
2672 *) EBCDIC overread
2673
2674 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2675 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2676 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
2677
2678 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2679 (CVE-2016-2176)
2680 [Matt Caswell]
2681
2682 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2683 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2684 [Todd Short]
2685
2686 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
2687 default.
2688 [Kurt Roeckx]
2689
2690 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
2691 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
2692 [Kurt Roeckx]
2693
2694 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2695
2696 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2697 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2698 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2699 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2700
2701 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2702 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2703 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2704 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2705 will need to explicitly call either of:
2706
2707 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2708 or
2709 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2710
2711 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2712 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2713 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2714 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2715 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
2716 (CVE-2016-0800)
2717 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2718
2719 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2720
2721 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2722 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2723 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2724 considered rare.
2725
2726 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2727 libFuzzer.
2728 (CVE-2016-0705)
2729 [Stephen Henson]
2730
2731 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2732
2733 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2734
2735 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2736 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2737 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2738 is configured.
2739
2740 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2741 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2742 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2743 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2744 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2745 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2746 that of a valid user.
2747 (CVE-2016-0798)
2748 [Emilia Käsper]
2749
2750 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2751
2752 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2753 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2754 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2755 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2756 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2757 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2758 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2759 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2760 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2761 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2762 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2763
2764 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2765 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2766 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2767 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2768 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
2769
2770 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
2771 (CVE-2016-0797)
2772 [Matt Caswell]
2773
2774 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2775
2776 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2777 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2778 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2779
2780 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2781 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2782 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2783 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2784 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2785 also occur.
2786
2787 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2788 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2789 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2790 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2791 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2792 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2793 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2794 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2795 as command line arguments.
2796
2797 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2798 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2799 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
2800
2801 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
2802 (CVE-2016-0799)
2803 [Matt Caswell]
2804
2805 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2806
2807 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2808 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2809 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2810 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2811 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2812
2813 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2814 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and

2823 apps to use 2048 bits by default.

2825
2826 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2827 *) DH small subgroups
2828
2829 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2830 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2831 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2832 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2833 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2834 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2835 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2836 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2837 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2838 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2839
2840 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2841 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2842 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2843 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2844 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2845
2846 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2847 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2848 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2849 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2850
2851 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2852 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.

2858 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
2859
2860 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on

2862 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2863 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

2872 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2873
2874 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2875 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2876 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2877 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2878 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2879 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2880 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2881 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2882 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2883 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2884 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2885 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2892
2893 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2894 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2895 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2896 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2897 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a

2906 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
2907
2908 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
2909 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
2910 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
2911 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
2912
2913 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
2914 libFuzzer.
2915 (CVE-2015-3195)
2916 [Stephen Henson]
2917
2918 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2919 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
2920 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
2921 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
2922 [Emilia Käsper]
2923
2924 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
2925 return an error
2926 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
2927
2928 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
2929
2930 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
2931
2932 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
2933 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2934 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2935 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2936 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2937 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
2938
2939 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
2940 (Google/BoringSSL).
2941 [Matt Caswell]
2942
2943 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
2944
2945 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
2946 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
2947 restored.
2948 [Matt Caswell]
2949
2950 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
2951
2952 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
2953
2954 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
2955 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
2956 field.
2957
2958 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
2959 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
2960 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
2961 client authentication enabled.
2962
2963 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
2964 (CVE-2015-1788)
2965 [Andy Polyakov]
2966
2967 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
2968
2969 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
2970 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
2971 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
2972 time string.
2973
2974 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
2975 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
2976 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
2977 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
2978 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
2979 callbacks.
2980
2981 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
2982 independently by Hanno Böck.
2983 (CVE-2015-1789)
2984 [Emilia Käsper]
2985
2986 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
2987
2988 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
2989 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
2990 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2991
2992 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
2993 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
2994 servers are not affected.
2995
2996 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2997 (CVE-2015-1790)
2998 [Emilia Käsper]
2999
3000 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
3001
3002 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
3003 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
3004 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
3005 the CMS code.
3006 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
3007 (CVE-2015-1792)
3008 [Stephen Henson]
3009
3010 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
3011
3012 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
3013 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
3014 a double free of the ticket data.
3015 (CVE-2015-1791)
3016 [Matt Caswell]
3017
3018 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
3019 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
3020 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
3021 [Emilia Kasper]
3022
3023 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
3024
3025 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
3026
3027 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
3028 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
3029 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
3030
3031 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
3032 University.
3033 (CVE-2015-0291)
3034 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
3035
3036 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
3037
3038 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
3039 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
3040 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
3041 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
3042 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
3043 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
3044 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
3045 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
3046
3047 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
3048 (CVE-2015-0290)
3049 [Matt Caswell]
3050
3051 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
3052
3053 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
3054 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
3055 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
3056 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
3057 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
3058 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
3059 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
3060 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
3061 server.
3062
3063 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
3064 (CVE-2015-0207)
3065 [Matt Caswell]
3066
3067 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
3068
3069 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
3070 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
3071 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
3072 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
3073 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
3074 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
3075 (CVE-2015-0286)
3076 [Stephen Henson]
3077
3078 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
3079
3080 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
3081 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
3082 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
3083 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
3084 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
3085 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
3086 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
3087
3088 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
3089 (CVE-2015-0208)
3090 [Stephen Henson]
3091
3092 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
3093
3094 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
3095 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
3096 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
3097
3098 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
3099 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
3100 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
3101 not affected.
3102 (CVE-2015-0287)
3103 [Stephen Henson]
3104
3105 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
3106
3107 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
3108 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
3109 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
3110
3111 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
3112 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
3113 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
3114
3115 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
3116 (CVE-2015-0289)
3117 [Emilia Käsper]
3118
3119 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
3120
3121 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
3122 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
3123 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
3124
3125 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
3126 (OpenSSL development team).
3127 (CVE-2015-0293)
3128 [Emilia Käsper]
3129
3130 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
3131
3132 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
3133 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
3134 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
3135 (CVE-2015-1787)
3136 [Matt Caswell]
3137
3138 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
3139
3140 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
3141 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
3142 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
3143 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
3144 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
3145 SSL_client_methodv23)
3146 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
3147 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
3148
3149 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
3150 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
3151 output may be predictable.
3152
3153 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
3154 succeed on an unpatched platform:
3155
3156 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
3157 (CVE-2015-0285)
3158 [Matt Caswell]
3159
3160 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
3161
3162 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
3163 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
3164 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
3165 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
3166 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
3167 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
3168
3169 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
3170 commit 517073cd4b.
3171 (CVE-2015-0209)
3172 [Matt Caswell]
3173
3174 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
3175
3176 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
3177 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
3178
3179 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
3180 (CVE-2015-0288)
3181 [Stephen Henson]
3182
3183 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
3184 [Kurt Roeckx]
3185
3186 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
3187
3188 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
3189 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
3190 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
3191 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
3192 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
3193 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
3194 [Andy Polyakov]
3195
3196 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
3197 (other platforms pending).
3198 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
3199
3200 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
3201 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
3202 [Rob Stradling]
3203
3204 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3205 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3206 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3207 [Bodo Moeller]
3208
3209 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
3210 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
3211 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
3212 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
3213 [Andy Polyakov]
3214
3215 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
3216 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
3217
3218 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
3219 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
3220 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
3221 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
3222 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
3223
3224 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
3225 [Andy Polyakov]
3226
3227 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
3228 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
3229 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
3230 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
3231
3232 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
3233 RSAZ.
3234 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
3235
3236 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
3237 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
3238 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
3239 for TLS encrypt.
3240
3241 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
3242 [Andy Polyakov]
3243
3244 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
3245 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
3246 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
3247 [Steve Henson]
3248
3249 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
3250 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
3251 [Steve Henson]
3252
3253 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
3254 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
3255 [Steve Henson]
3256
3257 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
3258 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
3259 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
3260 algorithms and include tests cases.
3261 [Steve Henson]
3262
3263 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
3264 structure.
3265 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
3266
3267 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
3268 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
3269 [Steve Henson]
3270
3271 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
3272 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
3273 summary of the connection parameters.
3274 [Steve Henson]
3275
3276 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
3277 of connection parameters.
3278 [Steve Henson]
3279
3280 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
3281 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
3282
3283 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
3284 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
3285 [Steve Henson]
3286
3287 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
3288 [Steve Henson]
3289
3290 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
3291 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
3292 [Steve Henson]
3293
3294 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
3295 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
3296 [Steve Henson]
3297
3298 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
3299 certificates.
3300 [Steve Henson]
3301
3302 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
3303 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
3304 CRLs using the OCSP API.
3305 [Steve Henson]
3306
3307 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
3308 [Steve Henson]
3309
3310 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
3311 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
3312 [Steve Henson]
3313
3314 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
3315 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
3316 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
3317 tracing.
3318 [Steve Henson]
3319
3320 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
3321 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
3322 [Steve Henson]
3323
3324 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
3325 OID NID.
3326 [Steve Henson]
3327
3328 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
3329 client to OpenSSL.
3330 [Steve Henson]
3331
3332 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
3333 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
3334 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
3335 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
3336 [Steve Henson]
3337
3338 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
3339 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
3340 [Steve Henson]
3341
3342 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
3343 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
3344 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
3345 comparison.
3346 [Steve Henson]
3347
3348 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
3349 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
3350 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
3351 use the certificate.
3352 [Steve Henson]
3353
3354 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
3355 [Steve Henson]
3356
3357 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
3358 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
3359 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
3360 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
3361 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
3362 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
3363 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
3364
3365 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
3366 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
3367
3368 [Steve Henson]
3369
3370 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
3371 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
3372 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
3373 [Steve Henson]
3374
3375 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
3376 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
3377 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
3378 supported signature algorithms.
3379 [Steve Henson]
3380
3381 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
3382 [Steve Henson]
3383
3384 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
3385 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
3386 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
3387 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
3388 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
3389 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
3390 certificate and specify the whole chain.
3391 [Steve Henson]
3392
3393 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
3394 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
3395 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
3396 to have similar checks in it.
3397
3398 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
3399 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
3400 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
3401 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
3402 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
3403 [Steve Henson]
3404
3405 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
3406 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
3407 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
3408 shared signature algorithms.
3409 [Steve Henson]
3410
3411 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
3412 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
3413 to support them.
3414 [Steve Henson]
3415
3416 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
3417 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
3418 it couldn't be removed.
3419 [Steve Henson]
3420
3421 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
3422 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
3423 [Steve Henson]
3424
3425 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
3426 functions. Add manual page.
3427 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
3428
3429 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
3430 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
3431 a certificate.
3432 [Steve Henson]
3433
3434 *) Fix OCSP checking.
3435 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
3436
3437 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
3438 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
3439 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
3440 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
3441 utility) or reject.
3442 [Steve Henson]
3443
3444 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
3445 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
3446 [Steve Henson]
3447
3448 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
3449 platform support for Linux and Android.
3450 [Andy Polyakov]
3451
3452 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
3453 [Andy Polyakov]
3454
3455 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
3456 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
3457 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
3458 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
3459 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
3460 [Steve Henson]
3461
3462 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
3463 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
3464 the new parameter format automatically.
3465 [Steve Henson]
3466
3467 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
3468 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
3469 [Steve Henson]
3470
3471 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
3472 [Steve Henson]
3473
3474 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
3475 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
3476 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
3477 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
3478 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
3479 [Steve Henson]
3480
3481 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
3482 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
3483 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
3484 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
3485 to set list of supported curves.
3486 [Steve Henson]
3487
3488 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
3489 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
3490 to print out received values.
3491 [Steve Henson]
3492
3493 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
3494 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
3495 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
3496 [Steve Henson]
3497
3498 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
3499 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
3500 [Steve Henson]
3501
3502 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
3503 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
3504 [Steve Henson]
3505
3506 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
3507 certificates.
3508 [Steve Henson]
3509
3510 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
3511 the certificate.
3512 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
3513 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
3514 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
3515
3516 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
3517
3518 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
3519 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
3520
3521 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
3522
3523 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
3524 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
3525 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
3526 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
3527 (CVE-2014-3571)
3528 [Steve Henson]
3529
3530 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
3531 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
3532 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
3533 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
3534 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
3535 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
3536 (CVE-2015-0206)
3537 [Matt Caswell]
3538
3539 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
3540 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
3541 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
3542 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
3543 (CVE-2014-3569)
3544 [Kurt Roeckx]
3545
3546 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
3547 ECDH ciphersuites.
3548
3549 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
3550 reporting this issue.
3551 (CVE-2014-3572)
3552 [Steve Henson]
3553
3554 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
3555 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
3556 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
3557 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
3558 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
3559 INRIA or reporting this issue.
3560 (CVE-2015-0204)
3561 [Steve Henson]
3562
3563 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
3564 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
3565 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
3566 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
3567 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
3568 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
3569 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
3570 this issue.
3571 (CVE-2015-0205)
3572 [Steve Henson]
3573
3574 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
3575 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
3576
3577 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
3578 and can vary with the CTX.
3579 [Adam Langley]
3580
3581 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
3582
3583 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
3584 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
3585 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
3586 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
3587 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
3588
3589 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
3590
3591 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
3592 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
3593
3594 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
3595
3596 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
3597 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
3598 errors for some broken certificates.
3599
3600 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
3601
3602 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
3603
3604 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
3605 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
3606
3607 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
3608 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
3609 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
3610 (negative or with leading zeroes).
3611
3612 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
3613 of the OpenSSL core team.
3614
3615 (CVE-2014-8275)
3616 [Steve Henson]
3617
3618 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
3619 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
3620 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
3621 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
3622 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
3623 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
3624 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
3625 the OpenSSL core team.
3626 (CVE-2014-3570)
3627 [Andy Polyakov]
3628
3629 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
3630 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
3631 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
3632 sanity and breaks all known clients.
3633 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
3634
3635 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
3636 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
3637 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
3638 [Emilia Käsper]
3639
3640 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
3641 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
3642 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3643 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
3644 announced in the initial ServerHello.
3645
3646 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
3647 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3648 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
3649 [Emilia Käsper]
3650
3651 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
3652
3653 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
3654
3655 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
3656 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
3657 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3658 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3659 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3660 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3661 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3662
3663 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3664 (CVE-2014-3513)
3665 [OpenSSL team]
3666
3667 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3668
3669 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3670 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3671 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3672 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3673 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3674 attack.
3675 (CVE-2014-3567)
3676 [Steve Henson]
3677
3678 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3679
3680 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3681 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3682 configured to send them.
3683 (CVE-2014-3568)
3684 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3685
3686 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3687 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3688 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3689 (CVE-2014-3566)
3690 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3691
3692 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3693
3694 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3695 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3696 DigestInfo structures.
3697
3698 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
3699
3700 [Steve Henson]
3701
3702 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3703
3704 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3705 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3706 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3707
3708 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3709 Group for discovering this issue.
3710 (CVE-2014-3512)
3711 [Steve Henson]
3712
3713 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3714 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3715 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3716 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3717 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3718
3719 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3720 researching this issue.
3721 (CVE-2014-3511)
3722 [David Benjamin]
3723
3724 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3725 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3726 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3727 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3728
3729 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3730 issue.
3731 (CVE-2014-3510)
3732 [Emilia Käsper]
3733
3734 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3735 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3736 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3737 (CVE-2014-3507)
3738 [Adam Langley]
3739
3740 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3741 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3742 Denial of Service attack.
3743 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3744 (CVE-2014-3506)
3745 [Adam Langley]
3746
3747 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3748 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3749 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3750 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3751 this issue.
3752 (CVE-2014-3505)
3753 [Adam Langley]
3754
3755 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3756 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3757 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3758
3759 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3760 issue.
3761 (CVE-2014-3509)
3762 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3763
3764 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3765 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3766 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3767 Denial of Service attack.
3768
3769 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3770 discovering and researching this issue.
3771 (CVE-2014-5139)
3772 [Steve Henson]
3773
3774 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3775 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3776 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3777 output to the attacker.
3778
3779 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3780 (CVE-2014-3508)
3781 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3782
3783 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3784 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3785 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3786 [Bodo Moeller]
3787
3788 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3789
3790 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3791 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3792 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3793
3794 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3795 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3796 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3797
3798 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3799 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3800 in a DoS attack.
3801
3802 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3803 (CVE-2014-0221)
3804 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3805
3806 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3807 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3808 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3809 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3810
3811 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3812 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3813
3814 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3815 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3816
3817 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3818 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3819 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3820
3821 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3822 compilation flags.
3823 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3824
3825 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3826 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3827 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3828
3829 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3830 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3831
3832 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3833
3834 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3835 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3836 server.
3837
3838 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3839 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3840 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3841 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3842
3843 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3844 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3845 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3846 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3847
3848 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3849 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3850 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3851
3852 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3853
3854 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3855 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3856 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3857 is at least 512 bytes long.
3858
3859 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
3860
3861 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3862
3863 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3864 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3865 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3866 (CVE-2013-4353)
3867
3868 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3869 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3870 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3871 [Steve Henson]
3872
3873 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3874 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3875 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3876 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3877 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3878 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3879 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3880
3881 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3882
3883 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3884 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3885 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3886
3887 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3888
3889 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3890
3891 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3892 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3893 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3894
3895 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3896 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3897 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and

3899 (CVE-2013-0169)
3900 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3901
3902 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3903 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3904 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering

3909
3910 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3911 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3912 [Steve Henson]
3913
3914 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3915 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3916
3917 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3918 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3919 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3920 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
3921 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
3922
3923 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3924 [Steve Henson]
3925
3926 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3927 if renegotiating.
3928 [Steve Henson]
3929
3930 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3931
3932 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3933 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3934
3935 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3936 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3937 (CVE-2012-2333)
3938 [Steve Henson]
3939
3940 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3941 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3942 [Steve Henson]
3943
3944 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3945 approved.
3946 [Steve Henson]
3947
3948 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
3949
3950 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
3951 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
3952 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
3953 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
3954 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
3955 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
3956 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
3957 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
3958 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
3959 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
3960 [Steve Henson]
3961
3962 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
3963 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
3964 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
3965 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
3966 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
3967 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
3968 client side.
3969 [Andy Polyakov]
3970
3971 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
3972
3973 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
3974 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
3975 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
3976
3977 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
3978 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
3979 (CVE-2012-2110)
3980 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
3981
3982 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
3983 [Adam Langley]
3984
3985 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
3986 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
3987
3988 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
3989 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
3990 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
3991 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
3992 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
3993 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
3994 Most broken servers should now work.
3995 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
3996 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
3997 [Steve Henson]
3998
3999 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
4000 [Andy Polyakov]
4001
4002 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
4003
4004 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
4005 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
4006 [Steve Henson]
4007
4008 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
4009 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
4010 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
4011 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
4012 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
4013 [Steve Henson]
4014
4015 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
4016 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
4017 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
4018 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
4019 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
4020 [Steve Henson]
4021
4022 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
4023 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
4024
4025 *) Add support for SCTP.
4026 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
4027
4028 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
4029 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
4030
4031 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
4032
4033 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
4034 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
4035 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
4036 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
4037 - s390x: z196 support;
4038 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
4039
4040 [Andy Polyakov]
4041
4042 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
4043 (removal of unnecessary code)
4044 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
4045
4046 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
4047 [Eric Rescorla]
4048
4049 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
4050 [Eric Rescorla]
4051
4052 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
4053 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
4054 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
4055 by Google.
4056 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
4057
4058 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
4059 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
4060 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
4061 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
4062 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
4063
4064 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
4065 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
4066 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
4067
4068 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
4069 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
4070 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
4071
4072 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
4073 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
4074 implementations).
4075 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4076
4077 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
4078 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
4079 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
4080 [Steve Henson]
4081
4082 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
4083 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
4084 particular PSS.
4085 [Steve Henson]
4086
4087 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
4088 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
4089 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
4090 [Steve Henson]
4091
4092 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
4093 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
4094 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
4095 the appropriate parameters.
4096 [Steve Henson]
4097
4098 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
4099 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
4100 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
4101 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
4102 against a number of sample certificates.
4103 [Steve Henson]
4104
4105 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
4106 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
4107
4108 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
4109 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
4110
4111 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
4112 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
4113 parameters r, s.
4114 [Steve Henson]
4115
4116 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
4117 RFC3211.
4118 [Steve Henson]
4119
4120 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
4121 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
4122 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
4123 password based CMS).
4124 [Steve Henson]
4125
4126 *) Session-handling fixes:
4127 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
4128 but also support Session Tickets.
4129 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
4130 presented a ticket with an expired session.
4131 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
4132 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
4133 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
4134 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4135
4136 *) Fix PSK session representation.
4137 [Bodo Moeller]
4138
4139 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
4140
4141 This work was sponsored by Intel.
4142 [Andy Polyakov]
4143
4144 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
4145 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
4146 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
4147 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
4148 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
4149 [Steve Henson]
4150
4151 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
4152 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
4153 [Steve Henson]
4154
4155 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
4156 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
4157 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
4158 [Steve Henson]
4159
4160 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
4161 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
4162 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
4163 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
4164 [Steve Henson]
4165
4166 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
4167 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
4168 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
4169 [Steve Henson]
4170
4171 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
4172 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
4173
4174 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
4175 [Steve Henson]
4176
4177 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
4178 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
4179 [Steve Henson]
4180
4181 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
4182 [Steve Henson]
4183
4184 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
4185 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
4186 [Steve Henson]
4187
4188 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
4189 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
4190 [Steve Henson]
4191
4192 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
4193 [Steve Henson]
4194
4195 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
4196 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
4197 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
4198 [Steve Henson]
4199
4200 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
4201 [Steve Henson]
4202
4203 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
4204 [Steve Henson]
4205
4206 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
4207 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
4208 [Steve Henson]
4209
4210 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
4211 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
4212 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
4213 [Steve Henson]
4214
4215 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
4216 [Steve Henson]
4217
4218 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
4219 and enable MD5.
4220 [Steve Henson]
4221
4222 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
4223 FIPS modules versions.
4224 [Steve Henson]
4225
4226 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
4227 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
4228 until after the certificate request message is received.
4229 [Steve Henson]
4230
4231 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
4232 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
4233 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
4234 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
4235 [Steve Henson]
4236
4237 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
4238 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
4239 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
4240 support yet and no support for client certificates.
4241 [Steve Henson]
4242
4243 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
4244 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
4245 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
4246 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
4247 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
4248 and version checking.
4249 [Steve Henson]
4250
4251 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
4252 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
4253 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
4254 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
4255 [Steve Henson]
4256
4257 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
4258 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
4259 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
4260 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
4261 Ben Laurie]
4262
4263 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
4264 [Steve Henson]
4265
4266 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
4267 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
4268 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
4269
4270 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
4271 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
4272 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
4273 [Steve Henson]
4274
4275 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
4276 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
4277
4278 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
4279 a few changes are required:
4280
4281 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
4282 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
4283 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
4284 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
4285 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
4286 [Steve Henson]
4287
4288 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
4289
4290 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
4291 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
4292 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
4293 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
4294 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
4295 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
4296 an MMA defence is not necessary.
4297 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
4298 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
4299 [Steve Henson]
4300
4301 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
4302 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
4303 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
4304 [Steve Henson]
4305
4306 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
4307
4308 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
4309 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
4310 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
4311 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
4312 [Antonio Martin]
4313
4314 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
4315
4316 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
4317 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
4318 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
4319 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
4320 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
4321 paper describing this attack can be found at:
4322 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
4323 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
4324 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
4325 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
4326 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
4327 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
4328 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
4329
4330 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
4331 (CVE-2011-4576)
4332 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4333
4334 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
4335 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
4336 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
4337 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4338
4339 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
4340 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
4341
4342 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
4343 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
4344 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
4345 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
4346
4347 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
4348 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
4349
4350 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
4351 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4352
4353 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
4354 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
4355
4356 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
4357 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
4358 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4359
4360 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
4361 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
4362 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
4363
4364 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
4365 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
4366 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
4367 the last update always remained unused).
4368 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
4369
4370 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
4371 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
4372
4373 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
4374
4375 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
4376 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
4377 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
4378
4379 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
4380 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
4381 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4382
4383 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
4384 [Bodo Moeller]
4385
4386 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
4387 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
4388 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
4389 [Steve Henson]
4390
4391 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
4392 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
4393
4394 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
4395
4396 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
4397
4398 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
4399
4400 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
4401 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4402
4403 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
4404 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
4405 ambiguous.
4406 [Steve Henson]
4407
4408 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
4409
4410 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
4411 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
4412 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
4413 [Steve Henson]
4414
4415 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
4416 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
4417 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
4418 [Ben Laurie]
4419
4420 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
4421
4422 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
4423 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
4424 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
4425 [Steve Henson]
4426
4427 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
4428 a DLL.
4429 [Steve Henson]
4430
4431 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
4432
4433 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
4434 (CVE-2010-1633)
4435 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
4436
4437 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
4438
4439 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
4440 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
4441 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
4442 [Steve Henson]
4443
4444 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
4445 [Steve Henson]
4446
4447 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
4448 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
4449 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
4450
4451 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
4452 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
4453 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
4454 [Steve Henson]
4455
4456 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
4457 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
4458 [Steve Henson]
4459
4460 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
4461 some responders need this.
4462 [Steve Henson]
4463
4464 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
4465 correctly.
4466 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4467
4468 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
4469 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
4470 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
4471 [Steve Henson]
4472
4473 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
4474 [Steve Henson]
4475
4476 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
4477 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
4478 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
4479 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
4480 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
4481 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
4482 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
4483 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
4484 [Steve Henson]
4485
4486 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
4487 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
4488 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
4489 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4490
4491 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
4492 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
4493
4494 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
4495 be used on C++.
4496 [Steve Henson]
4497
4498 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
4499 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
4500 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
4501 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
4502 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
4503 attempting to work them out.
4504 [Steve Henson]
4505
4506 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
4507 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
4508 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
4509 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
4510 [Steve Henson]
4511
4512 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
4513 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
4514 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
4515 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
4516 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
4517 [Steve Henson]
4518
4519 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
4520 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
4521 you can do:
4522
4523 openssl sha256 foo
4524
4525 as well as:
4526
4527 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
4528
4529 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
4530
4531 [Steve Henson]
4532
4533 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
4534 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4535
4536 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
4537 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
4538
4539 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
4540 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
4541 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
4542 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
4543 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
4544 [Steve Henson]
4545
4546 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
4547 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
4548 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
4549 [Steve Henson]
4550
4551 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
4552 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
4553 [Steve Henson]
4554
4555 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
4556 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
4557
4558 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
4559 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
4560 [Steve Henson]
4561
4562 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
4563 [Ben Laurie]
4564
4565 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
4566 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
4567 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
4568 CONF_VALUE.
4569 [Ben Laurie]
4570
4571 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
4572 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
4573 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
4574 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
4575 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
4576 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
4577 [Steve Henson]
4578
4579 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
4580 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
4581
4582 This work was sponsored by Google.
4583 [Steve Henson]
4584
4585 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
4586 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
4587 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
4588 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
4589 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
4590 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
4591 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
4592 default.
4593
4594 This work was sponsored by Google.
4595 [Steve Henson]
4596
4597 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
4598
4599 This work was sponsored by Google.
4600 [Steve Henson]
4601
4602 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
4603 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
4604 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4605 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
4606
4607 This work was sponsored by Google.
4608 [Steve Henson]
4609
4610 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
4611 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
4612 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
4613 CRL functionality in future.
4614
4615 This work was sponsored by Google.
4616 [Steve Henson]
4617
4618 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
4619
4620 This work was sponsored by Google.
4621 [Steve Henson]
4622
4623 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
4624 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
4625
4626 This work was sponsored by Google.
4627 [Steve Henson]
4628
4629 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
4630 and URI types are currently supported.
4631
4632 This work was sponsored by Google.
4633 [Steve Henson]
4634
4635 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
4636 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
4637 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
4638 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
4639 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
4640 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
4641 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
4642 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
4643
4644 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
4645 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
4646 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
4647
4648 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
4649 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
4650 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
4651 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
4652
4653 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
4654 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
4655 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
4656 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
4657 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4658 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4659 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4660 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4661 of &errno.)
4662 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4663
4664 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4665 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4666 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4667
4668 This work was sponsored by Google.
4669 [Steve Henson]
4670
4671 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4672 [Ben Laurie]
4673
4674 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4675 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4676 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4677 [Ben Laurie]
4678
4679 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4680 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4681 [Nick Mathewson]
4682
4683 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4684 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4685 [Ben Laurie]
4686
4687 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4688 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4689 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4690 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4691 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4692 content types and variants.
4693 [Steve Henson]
4694
4695 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4696 [Steve Henson]
4697
4698 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4699 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4700 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4701 files from the associated perl scripts.
4702 [Steve Henson]
4703
4704 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4705 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4706 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4707
4708 *) s390x assembler pack.
4709 [Andy Polyakov]
4710
4711 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4712 "family."
4713 [Andy Polyakov]
4714
4715 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4716 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4717 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4718 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4719 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4720 to use. For example, specify an option
4721
4722 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4723
4724 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4725 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4726 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4727 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4728 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4729 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4730
4731 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4732 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4733 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4734 return non-zero for success.
4735
4736 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4737 by using
4738
4739 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4740 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4741
4742 where
4743
4744 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4745 void *arg;
4746
4747 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4748 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4749 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4750 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4751 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4752 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4753 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4754 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4755 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4756
4757 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4758 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4759 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4760 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4761 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4762 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4763
4764 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4765 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4766 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4767 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4768 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4769 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4770
4771 [Bodo Moeller]
4772
4773 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4774 MAC.
4775
4776 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4777
4778 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4779 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4780 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4781 supported.
4782
4783 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4784 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4785 SSL_SESSION.
4786
4787 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4788 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4789 with no application modification.
4790
4791 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4792 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4793
4794 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4795 or server extensions to be examined.
4796
4797 This work was sponsored by Google.
4798 [Steve Henson]
4799
4800 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4801 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4802 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4803
4804 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4805 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4806 ciphersuite support.
4807 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4808
4809 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4810 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4811 to output in BER and PEM format.
4812 [Steve Henson]
4813
4814 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4815 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4816 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4817 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4818 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4819 [Steve Henson]
4820
4821 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4822 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4823 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4824 utility.
4825 [Steve Henson]
4826
4827 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4828 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4829 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4830 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4831 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4832 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4833 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4834 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4835 enabled again.
4836
4837 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4838 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4839 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4840 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4841
4842 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4843 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4844 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4845 the default order.
4846 [Bodo Moeller]
4847
4848 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4849 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4850 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4851 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4852 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4853 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4854 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4855 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4856 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4857
4858 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4859 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4860 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4861 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4862 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4863 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4864 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4865 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4866 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4867 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4868 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4869 kinds of kludges.
4870
4871 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4872 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4873 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4874
4875 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4876 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4877 "CAMELLIA256".
4878 [Bodo Moeller]
4879
4880 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4881 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4882 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4883 [Nils Larsch]
4884
4885 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4886 it yet and it is largely untested.
4887 [Steve Henson]
4888
4889 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4890 [Nils Larsch]
4891
4892 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4893 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4894 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4895 [Steve Henson]
4896
4897 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4898 [Andy Polyakov]
4899
4900 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4901 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4902 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4903 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4904 [Steve Henson]
4905
4906 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4907 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4908 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4909 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4910 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4911 [Steve Henson]
4912
4913 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4914 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4915 [Cryptocom]
4916
4917 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4918 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4919 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4920 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4921 [Steve Henson]
4922
4923 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4924 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4925 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4926 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4927 [Steve Henson]
4928
4929 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4930 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4931 [Steve Henson]
4932
4933 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4934 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4935 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4936 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4937 [Steve Henson]
4938
4939 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4940 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4941 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4942 [Steve Henson]
4943
4944 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4945 utility.
4946 [Steve Henson]
4947
4948 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
4949 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
4950 [Steve Henson]
4951
4952 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
4953 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
4954 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
4955 if necessary.
4956 [Steve Henson]
4957
4958 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
4959 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
4960 to free up any added signature OIDs.
4961 [Steve Henson]
4962
4963 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
4964 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
4965 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
4966 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
4967 [Steve Henson]
4968
4969 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
4970 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
4971 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
4972 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
4973 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
4974 the array representation useful in a more general context.
4975 [Douglas Stebila]
4976
4977 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
4978 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
4979 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
4980 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
4981 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
4982
4983 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
4984 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
4985 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
4986 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
4987 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
4988 protocol).
4989
4990 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
4991 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
4992 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
4993 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
4994
4995 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
4996 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
4997 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
4998 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
4999 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
5000
5001 aECDH - ECDH cert
5002 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
5003 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
5004
5005 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
5006 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
5007
5008 [Bodo Moeller]
5009
5010 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
5011 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
5012 [Steve Henson]
5013
5014 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
5015 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
5016 [Steve Henson]
5017
5018 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
5019 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
5020 functional reference processing.
5021 [Steve Henson]
5022
5023 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
5024 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
5025 process.
5026 [Steve Henson]
5027
5028 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
5029 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
5030 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
5031 [Steve Henson]
5032
5033 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
5034 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
5035 application to support multiple signers.
5036 [Steve Henson]
5037
5038 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
5039 digest MAC.
5040 [Steve Henson]
5041
5042 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
5043 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
5044 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
5045 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
5046 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
5047 [Steve Henson]
5048
5049 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
5050 new API.
5051 [Steve Henson]
5052
5053 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
5054 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
5055 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
5056 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
5057 a no op.
5058 [Steve Henson]
5059
5060 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
5061 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
5062 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
5063 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
5064 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
5065 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
5066 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
5067 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
5068 [Steve Henson]
5069
5070 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
5071 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
5072 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
5073 between digests and public key types.
5074 [Steve Henson]
5075
5076 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
5077 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
5078 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
5079 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
5080 [Steve Henson]
5081
5082 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
5083 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
5084 key ASN1 method.
5085 [Steve Henson]
5086
5087 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
5088 [Steve Henson]
5089
5090 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
5091 pkeyutl.
5092 [Steve Henson]
5093
5094 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
5095 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
5096 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
5097 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
5098 pkey, genpkey.
5099 [Steve Henson]
5100
5101 *) BeOS support.
5102 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
5103
5104 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
5105 manual pages.
5106 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
5107
5108 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
5109 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
5110 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
5111 functionality for RSA.
5112 [Steve Henson]
5113
5114 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
5115 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
5116 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
5117 [Steve Henson]
5118
5119 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
5120 key API, doesn't do much yet.
5121 [Steve Henson]
5122
5123 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
5124 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
5125 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
5126 [Steve Henson]
5127
5128 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
5129 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
5130 [Douglas Stebila]
5131
5132 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
5133 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
5134 [Steve Henson]
5135
5136 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
5137 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
5138 type.
5139 [Steve Henson]
5140
5141 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
5142 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
5143 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
5144 structure.
5145 [Steve Henson]
5146
5147 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
5148 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
5149 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
5150 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
5151 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
5152 of public and private key structures.
5153 [Steve Henson]
5154
5155 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
5156 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
5157 [Douglas Stebila]
5158
5159 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
5160 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
5161 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
5162
5163 New ciphersuites:
5164 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
5165 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
5166
5167 New functions:
5168 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
5169 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
5170 SSL_get_psk_identity
5171 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
5172
5173 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
5174
5175 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
5176 and response verification functionality.
5177 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
5178
5179 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5180 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5181 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5182 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5183 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5184 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5185 server_name extension.
5186
5187 New functions (subject to change):
5188
5189 SSL_get_servername()
5190 SSL_get_servername_type()
5191 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5192
5193 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5194
5195 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5196 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5197 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5198 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5199 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5200
5201 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5202
5203 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5204 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5205 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5206 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5207 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5208 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5209 option.
5210
5211 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
5212
5213 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
5214 [Andy Polyakov]
5215
5216 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
5217 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
5218 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
5219 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
5220 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
5221 [Andy Polyakov]
5222
5223 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
5224 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
5225 macro.
5226 [Bodo Moeller]
5227
5228 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
5229 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
5230 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
5231 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
5232 [Andy Polyakov]
5233
5234 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
5235 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
5236 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
5237 using the maximum available value.
5238 [Steve Henson]
5239
5240 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
5241 in addition to the text details.
5242 [Bodo Moeller]
5243
5244 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
5245 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
5246 handle several customised structures at all.
5247 [Steve Henson]
5248
5249 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
5250 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
5251 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
5252 [Steve Henson]
5253
5254 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
5255 [Steve Henson]
5256
5257 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
5258 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
5259 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
5260 [Steve Henson]
5261
5262 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
5263 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
5264 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
5265 [Nils Larsch]
5266
5267 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
5268 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
5269 all fields.
5270 [Steve Henson]
5271
5272 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
5273 [Steve Henson]
5274
5275 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
5276 [NTT]
5277
5278 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
5279
5280 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
5281 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
5282 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
5283 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
5284 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
5285 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
5286 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
5287 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
5288
5289 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
5290 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
5291 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
5292
5293 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
5294
5295 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
5296 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
5297
5298 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
5299 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
5300 [Bodo Moeller]
5301
5302 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
5303 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
5304 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
5305 [Steve Henson]
5306
5307 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
5308 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
5309 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
5310 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
5311 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
5312 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
5313 [Steve Henson]
5314
5315 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
5316 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
5317 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
5318 [Steve Henson]
5319
5320 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
5321 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
5322 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
5323 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
5324 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
5325 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
5326 CVE-2009-4355.
5327 [Steve Henson]
5328
5329 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
5330 change when encrypting or decrypting.
5331 [Bodo Moeller]
5332
5333 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
5334 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
5335 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
5336 [Steve Henson]
5337
5338 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
5339 [Steve Henson]
5340
5341 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
5342 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
5343 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
5344 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
5345 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
5346 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
5347 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
5348 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
5349 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
5350 [Steve Henson]
5351
5352 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
5353 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
5354 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
5355 [Steve Henson]
5356
5357 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
5358 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
5359 [Steve Henson]
5360
5361 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
5362 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
5363 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
5364 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
5365 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
5366 know what you are doing.
5367 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
5368
5369 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
5370 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
5371 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
5372 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
5373 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
5374 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
5375 the handshake.
5376 [Steve Henson]
5377
5378 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
5379 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
5380 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
5381 correctly.
5382 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
5383
5384 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
5385 warnings in other configurations.
5386 [Steve Henson]
5387
5388 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
5389 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
5390 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
5391 systems need.
5392 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
5393
5394 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
5395 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
5396 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
5397
5398 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
5399 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
5400 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
5401 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
5402 [Steve Henson]
5403
5404 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
5405 and restored.
5406 [Steve Henson]
5407
5408 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
5409 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
5410 clash.
5411 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
5412
5413 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
5414 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
5415 other than a simple chain.
5416 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
5417
5418 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
5419 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
5420 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
5421 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
5422 [Steve Henson]
5423
5424 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
5425 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
5426 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
5427 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
5428 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
5429 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
5430 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
5431 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
5432 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5433
5434 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
5435 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
5436 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
5437 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
5438 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
5439 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
5440 (CVE-2009-1377)
5441 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5442
5443 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
5444 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
5445 [Daniel Mentz]
5446
5447 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
5448 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
5449
5450 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
5451 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
5452
5453 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
5454
5455 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
5456 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
5457 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
5458 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
5459 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
5460 you're doing.
5461 [Ben Laurie]
5462
5463 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
5464
5465 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
5466 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
5467 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
5468 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
5469
5470 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
5471 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
5472 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
5473 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5474
5475 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
5476 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
5477 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
5478 [Steve Henson]
5479
5480 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
5481 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
5482 level.
5483 [Steve Henson]
5484
5485 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
5486 to handle some structures.
5487 [Steve Henson]
5488
5489 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
5490 for a '\n'
5491 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
5492
5493 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
5494 [Matthieu Herrb]
5495
5496 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
5497 [Steve Henson]
5498
5499 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
5500 [Steve Henson]
5501
5502 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
5503 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
5504 chosen compiler.
5505 [Ben Laurie]
5506
5507 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
5508
5509 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
5510 (CVE-2008-5077).
5511 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
5512
5513 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
5514 [Ben Laurie]
5515
5516 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
5517 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
5518 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
5519 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
5520
5521 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
5522 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
5523
5524 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
5525 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
5526 [Bodo Moeller]
5527
5528 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
5529 s_client and s_server.
5530 [Ben Laurie]
5531
5532 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
5533 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
5534
5535 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
5536 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
5537
5538 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
5539 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
5540 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
5541 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
5542 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
5543 [Bodo Moeller]
5544
5545 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
5546
5547 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
5548 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
5549 [PR #1679]
5550
5551 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
5552 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
5553 [Nagendra Modadugu]
5554
5555 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
5556 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
5557 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
5558 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
5559
5560 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
5561 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
5562
5563 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
5564
5565 *) Various precautionary measures:
5566
5567 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
5568
5569 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
5570 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
5571 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
5572
5573 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
5574 outside the expected range.
5575
5576 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
5577 builds.
5578
5579 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
5580
5581 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
5582 the load fails. Useful for distros.
5583 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
5584
5585 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
5586 [Steve Henson]
5587
5588 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
5589 [Huang Ying]
5590
5591 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
5592
5593 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5594 [Steve Henson]
5595
5596 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
5597 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
5598 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
5599
5600 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5601 [Steve Henson]
5602
5603 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
5604 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
5605 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
5606 files.
5607 [Steve Henson]
5608
5609 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
5610
5611 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
5612 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
5613 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
5614 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
5615
5616 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
5617 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
5618 [Joe Orton]
5619
5620 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
5621
5622 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
5623 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
5624 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
5625
5626 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
5627
5628 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
5629 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
5630 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
5631 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
5632 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5633
5634 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
5635 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
5636 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
5637 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
5638 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
5639 invalid read after the end of 'db').
5640 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5641
5642 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
5643
5644 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
5645 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
5646 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
5647 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
5648 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
5649
5650 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
5651 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
5652
5653 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
5654 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
5655 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
5656 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
5657 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5658
5659 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5660
5661 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5662 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5663 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5664 sets may exist with different names.
5665 [Steve Henson]
5666
5667 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5668 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5669 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5670 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5671 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5672 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5673 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5674 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5675 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5676 implementation.
5677 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5678
5679 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5680 implementation in the following ways:
5681
5682 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5683 hard coded.
5684
5685 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5686 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5687 ignored for embedded content.
5688
5689 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5690 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5691 [Steve Henson]
5692
5693 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5694 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5695 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5696 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5697
5698 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5699 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5700 [Steve Henson]
5701
5702 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5703 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5704 [Steve Henson]
5705
5706 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5707 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5708 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5709 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5710 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5711 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5712 data.
5713 [Steve Henson]
5714
5715 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5716 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5717 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5718
5719 *) Netware support:
5720
5721 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5722 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5723 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5724 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5725 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5726 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5727 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5728 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5729 platform
5730 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5731 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5732 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5733 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5734 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5735 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5736 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5737
5738 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5739 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5740 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5741 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5742 to s_client and s_server.
5743 [Steve Henson]
5744
5745 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5746
5747 *) Fix various bugs:
5748 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5749 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5750 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5751 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5752 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5753
5754 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5755
5756 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5757 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5758 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5759 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5760 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5761 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5762 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5763 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5764 [Andy Polyakov]
5765
5766 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5767 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5768 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5769 Steve Henson]
5770
5771 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5772 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5773 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5774 supported.
5775
5776 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5777 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5778 SSL_SESSION.
5779
5780 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5781 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5782 with no application modification.
5783
5784 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5785 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5786
5787 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5788 or server extensions to be examined.
5789
5790 This work was sponsored by Google.
5791 [Steve Henson]
5792
5793 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5794 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5795 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5796 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5797 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5798 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5799 server_name extension.
5800
5801 New functions (subject to change):
5802
5803 SSL_get_servername()
5804 SSL_get_servername_type()
5805 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5806
5807 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5808
5809 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5810 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5811 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5812 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5813 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5814
5815 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5816
5817 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5818 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5819 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5820 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5821 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5822 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5823 option.
5824
5825 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5826
5827 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5828 [Steve Henson]
5829
5830 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5831 [Andy Polyakov]
5832
5833 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5834 (which previously caused an internal error).
5835 [Bodo Moeller]
5836
5837 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5838 [Ben Laurie]
5839
5840 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5841 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5842
5843 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5844 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5845 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5846
5847 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5848 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5849 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5850 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5851
5852 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5853 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5854 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5855 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5856
5857 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5858 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5859 information. For detailed background information, see
5860 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5861 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5862 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5863 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5864 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5865 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5866 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5867 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5868 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5869 remove a conditional branch.
5870
5871 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5872 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5873 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5874 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5875 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5876 remains as a deprecated alias.
5877
5878 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5879 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5880 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5881 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5882
5883 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5884 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5885 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5886 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5887 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5888 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5889 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5890 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5891
5892 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5893
5894 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5895 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5896 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5897 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5898 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5899 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5900 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5901 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5902 in a different context.
5903 [Bodo Moeller]
5904
5905 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5906 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5907 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5908 [Bodo Moeller]
5909
5910 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5911 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5912 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5913
5914 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5915
5916 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5917 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5918 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5919 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5920 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5921 [Victor Duchovni]
5922
5923 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5924 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5925 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5926 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5927 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5928 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5929 [Bodo Moeller]
5930
5931 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5932 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5933 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5934 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5935 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5936 [Bodo Moeller]
5937
5938 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5939 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5940
5941 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5942 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5943 Improve header file function name parsing.
5944 [Steve Henson]
5945
5946 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5947 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
5948 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
5949
5950 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
5951
5952 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5953 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5954 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5955
5956 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5957 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5958
5959 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5960 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5961
5962 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5963 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5964 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5965
5966 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
5967 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
5968 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
5969 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
5970 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
5971 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
5972 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
5973 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
5974 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
5975
5976 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
5977 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
5978 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
5979 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
5980 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
5981
5982 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
5983 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
5984 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
5985 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
5986 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
5987 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
5988 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
5989 multiple values to extend the available space.
5990
5991 [Bodo Moeller]
5992
5993 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
5994
5995 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5996 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5997
5998 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
5999 [Ben Laurie]
6000
6001 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6002 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6003 undesirable limitations.
6004 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6005
6006 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
6007 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
6008 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
6009 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
6010 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
6011 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
6012 to avoid potential handshake problems.
6013 [Bodo Moeller]
6014
6015 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6016
6017 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6018 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6019 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6020
6021 The latter two were purportedly from
6022 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6023 appear there.
6024
6025 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6026 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6027 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6028 [Bodo Moeller]
6029
6030 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6031 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6032 [Bodo Moeller]
6033
6034 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
6035 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
6036 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
6037 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
6038
6039 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
6040 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
6041 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
6042 [NTT]
6043
6044 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
6045 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
6046 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
6047 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
6048 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
6049 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
6050 [Steve Henson]
6051
6052 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
6053
6054 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
6055 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
6056 [Steve Henson]
6057
6058 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
6059 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
6060
6061 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
6062 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
6063 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
6064 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
6065 [Douglas Stebila]
6066
6067 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
6068 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
6069 [Steve Henson]
6070
6071 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
6072 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
6073 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
6074 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
6075 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
6076 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
6077 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
6078 can't be loaded.
6079 [Steve Henson]
6080
6081 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
6082 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
6083 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
6084 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
6085 [Steve Henson]
6086
6087 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
6088 under VC++ build system.
6089 [Steve Henson]
6090
6091 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
6092 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
6093 [Richard Levitte]
6094
6095 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
6096
6097 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6098 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6099 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6100 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6101 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6102
6103 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6104 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6105 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6106
6107 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
6108 [Steve Henson]
6109
6110 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
6111 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
6112 [Nils Larsch]
6113
6114 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
6115 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
6116
6117 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
6118 [Nick Mathewson]
6119
6120 *) Extended Windows CE support.
6121 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
6122
6123 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
6124 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
6125 [Steve Henson]
6126
6127 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
6128 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
6129 smime utility.
6130 [Steve Henson]
6131
6132 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
6133
6134 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6135 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6136
6137 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
6138 [Richard Levitte]
6139
6140 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
6141 key into the same file any more.
6142 [Richard Levitte]
6143
6144 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
6145 [Andy Polyakov]
6146
6147 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
6148 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
6149
6150 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
6151 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
6152 [Richard Levitte]
6153
6154 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
6155 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
6156 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
6157 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
6158 this only applies when building 'shared'.
6159 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
6160
6161 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
6162 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
6163 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
6164 [Steve Henson]
6165
6166 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
6167 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
6168 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
6169 - add new function for parameter creation
6170 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
6171 BN_BLINDING parameters
6172 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
6173 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
6174 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
6175 threads.
6176 [Nils Larsch]
6177
6178 *) Add support for DTLS.
6179 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
6180
6181 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
6182 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
6183 [Walter Goulet]
6184
6185 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
6186 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
6187 [Nils Larsch]
6188
6189 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
6190 the apps/openssl applications.
6191 [Nils Larsch]
6192
6193 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
6194 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
6195 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
6196 [Ben Laurie]
6197
6198 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
6199 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
6200
6201 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
6202 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
6203
6204 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
6205 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
6206 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
6207 avoid this algorithm.)
6208
6209 [Bodo Moeller]
6210
6211 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
6212 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
6213 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
6214 [Richard Levitte]
6215
6216 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
6217 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
6218 [Andy Polyakov]
6219
6220 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
6221 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
6222 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
6223 pod file:
6224
6225 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
6226
6227 The blank line is mandatory.
6228
6229 [Steve Henson]
6230
6231 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
6232 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
6233 sources.
6234 [Steve Henson]
6235
6236 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
6237 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
6238
6239 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
6240 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
6241 to support policy checking and print out.
6242 [Steve Henson]
6243
6244 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
6245 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
6246 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
6247 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
6248
6249 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
6250 [Geoff Thorpe]
6251
6252 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
6253 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
6254
6255 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
6256 implementation contributed by IBM.
6257 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
6258
6259 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
6260 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
6261 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
6262 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
6263
6264 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
6265 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
6266
6267 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
6268 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
6269 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
6270 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
6271 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
6272 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
6273 [Steve Henson]
6274
6275 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
6276 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
6277 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
6278 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
6279 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
6280 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
6281 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
6282 [Geoff Thorpe]
6283
6284 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
6285 [Steve Henson]
6286
6287 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
6288 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
6289 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
6290 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
6291 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
6292 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
6293 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
6294 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
6295 [Steve Henson]
6296
6297 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
6298 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
6299 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
6300 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
6301 [Steve Henson]
6302
6303 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
6304 syntax:
6305
6306 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
6307 [Steve Henson]
6308
6309 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
6310 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
6311 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
6312 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
6313 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
6314 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
6315 BN_CTX's "bundling".
6316 [Geoff Thorpe]
6317
6318 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
6319 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
6320 [Geoff Thorpe]
6321
6322 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
6323 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
6324 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
6325 [Steve Henson]
6326
6327 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
6328 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
6329 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
6330 below).
6331 [Geoff Thorpe]
6332
6333 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
6334 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
6335 [Richard Levitte]
6336
6337 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
6338 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
6339 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
6340 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
6341 [Geoff Thorpe]
6342
6343 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
6344 initialised value as BN_new().
6345 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
6346
6347 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
6348 [Steve Henson]
6349
6350 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
6351 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
6352 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
6353 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
6354 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
6355 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
6356 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
6357 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
6358 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
6359 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
6360 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
6361 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
6362 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
6363 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
6364 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
6365
6366 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
6367 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
6368 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
6369 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
6370 [Geoff Thorpe]
6371
6372 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
6373 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
6374 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
6375 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
6376 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
6377 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
6378 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
6379 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
6380 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
6381 [Geoff Thorpe]
6382
6383 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
6384 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
6385 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
6386 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
6387 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
6388 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
6389 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
6390 [Geoff Thorpe]
6391
6392 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
6393 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
6394 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
6395 these have been updated also.
6396 [Geoff Thorpe]
6397
6398 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
6399 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
6400 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
6401 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
6402 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
6403 functions.
6404 [Steve Henson]
6405
6406 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
6407 structure of type "other".
6408 [Steve Henson]
6409
6410 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
6411 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
6412 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
6413 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
6414 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
6415 situation in the script.
6416 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6417
6418 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
6419 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
6420 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
6421 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
6422 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
6423 used as premaster secret.
6424 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6425
6426 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
6427 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
6428 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6429
6430 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
6431 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
6432
6433 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
6434 control of the error stack.
6435 [Richard Levitte]
6436
6437 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
6438 [Richard Levitte]
6439
6440 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
6441 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
6442 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
6443 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
6444 [Richard Levitte]
6445
6446 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
6447 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
6448 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
6449 [Richard Levitte]
6450
6451 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
6452 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
6453 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
6454 a memory area.
6455 [Richard Levitte]
6456
6457 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
6458 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
6459 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
6460 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
6461 [Richard Levitte]
6462
6463 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
6464 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
6465 the following flags are defined:
6466
6467 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
6468 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6469 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
6470 number.
6471
6472 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
6473 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6474 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
6475 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
6476 returns zero.
6477 [Richard Levitte]
6478
6479 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
6480 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
6481 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
6482 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
6483 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
6484 [Richard Levitte]
6485
6486 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
6487 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
6488 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
6489 [Richard Levitte]
6490
6491 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6492 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6493 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6494 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6495 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6496 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6497 [Richard Levitte]
6498
6499 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
6500 req and dirName.
6501 [Steve Henson]
6502
6503 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
6504 [Steve Henson]
6505
6506 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
6507 [Steve Henson]
6508
6509 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
6510 [Steve Henson]
6511
6512 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
6513 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
6514 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
6515 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
6516 default implementation more easily.
6517 [Geoff Thorpe]
6518
6519 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
6520 in config files.
6521 [Steve Henson]
6522
6523 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
6524 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
6525 [Richard Levitte]
6526
6527 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
6528 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
6529 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
6530 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
6531
6532 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
6533 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
6534 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
6535 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
6536 [Steve Henson]
6537
6538 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
6539 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
6540 to do it.
6541 [Richard Levitte]
6542
6543 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
6544 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
6545 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
6546 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
6547 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
6548 scalar * generator).
6549 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
6550
6551 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
6552 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
6553 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
6554 correctly.
6555 [Steve Henson]
6556
6557 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
6558 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
6559 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
6560 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
6561 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
6562 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
6563 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
6564 linker additions, eg;
6565 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
6566 [Geoff Thorpe]
6567
6568 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
6569 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
6570 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
6571 [Geoff Thorpe]
6572
6573 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6574 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6575 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
6576 via PR#459)
6577 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6578
6579 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
6580 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
6581 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
6582 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
6583 [Geoff Thorpe]
6584
6585 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
6586 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
6587 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
6588 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
6589 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
6590 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
6591 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
6592 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
6593 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
6594 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
6595
6596 Example for using the new callback interface:
6597
6598 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
6599 void *my_arg = ...;
6600 BN_GENCB my_cb;
6601
6602 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
6603
6604 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
6605 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
6606 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
6607 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
6608 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
6609 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
6610 */
6611
6612 [Geoff Thorpe]
6613
6614 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
6615 available to TLS with the number defined in
6616 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
6617 [Richard Levitte]
6618
6619 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
6620 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
6621
6622 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
6623 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6624 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6625 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
6626
6627 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
6628 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
6629
6630 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
6631 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
6632 well.
6633 [Richard Levitte]
6634
6635 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
6636 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
6637 [Richard Levitte]
6638
6639 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
6640 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
6641 and a macro that behave like
6642 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
6643
6644 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
6645 [Nils Larsch]
6646
6647 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
6648 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
6649 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
6650 if applicable.
6651 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6652
6653 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
6654 [Bodo Moeller]
6655
6656 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
6657 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6658 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6659 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6660 directory engines/.
6661 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6662 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6663 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6664 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6665 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6666 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6667 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6668 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6669
6670 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6671 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6672 [Richard Levitte]
6673
6674 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6675 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6676
6677 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6678 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6679 files while avoiding the low level API.
6680
6681 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6682 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6683 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6684 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6685
6686 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6687 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6688 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6689 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6690 instead of the low level API.
6691 [Steve Henson]
6692
6693 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6694 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6695 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6696 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6697 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6698 PKCS#7 code.
6699
6700 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6701 down to the template encoder.
6702 [Steve Henson]
6703
6704 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6705 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6706 [Bodo Moeller]
6707
6708 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6709 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6710 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6711 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6712
6713 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6714 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6715
6716 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6717 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6718
6719 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6720 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6721 [Bodo Moeller]
6722
6723 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6724 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6725 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6726 [Bodo Moeller]
6727
6728 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6729 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6730
6731 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6732 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6733
6734 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6735 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6736 New EC_METHOD:
6737
6738 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6739
6740 New API functions:
6741
6742 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6743 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6744 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6745 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6746 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6747 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6748
6749 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6750 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6751 enable it).
6752
6753 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6754 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6755 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6756 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6757 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6758 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6759 various internal method names.)
6760
6761 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6762 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6763
6764 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6765 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6766
6767 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6768 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6769
6770 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6771 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6772 methods are undefined.
6773
6774 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6775 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6776
6777 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6778 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6779 length of the modulus.
6780
6781 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6782 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6783
6784 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6785 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6786
6787 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6788 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6789
6790 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6791 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6792 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6793
6794 BN_GF2m_add
6795 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]

6804
6805 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6806 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6807
6808 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6809 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6810 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6811 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6812 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6813 where
6814 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6815 This applies to the following functions:
6816
6817 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6818 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6819 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6820 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6821 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6822 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6823 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6824 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6825 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6826 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6827
6828 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6829
6830 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6831 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6832
6833 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6834
6835 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6836 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6837 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6838 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6839 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6840
6841 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6842 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6843
6844 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6845 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6846 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6847
6848 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6849 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6850
6851 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6852 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6853 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6854 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6855 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6856
6857 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6858 functions
6859 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6860 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6861 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6862 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6863 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6864 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6865 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6866 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6867 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6868 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6869 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6870 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6871
6872 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6873 functions
6874 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6875 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6876 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6877 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6878 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6879
6880 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6881 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6882 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6883 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6884
6885 *) Add functions
6886 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6887 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6888 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6889 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6890 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6891 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6892 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6893
6894 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6895 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6896 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6897 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6898 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6899 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6900 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6901 adding different types of curves.
6902 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6903
6904 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6905 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6906 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6907 [Bodo Moeller]
6908
6909 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6910 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6911
6912 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6913 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6914 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6915 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6916
6917 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6918
6919 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6920 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6921
6922 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6923 library. Most notably,
6924 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6925 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6926 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6927 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6928 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6929 extracted before the specific public key;
6930 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6931 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6932
6933 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6934 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6935 function
6936 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6937 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6938 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6939 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6940 accessed via
6941 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6942 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6943 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6944
6945 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6946 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6947 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6948 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6949 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6950 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6951 differing sizes.
6952 [Richard Levitte]
6953
6954 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
6955
6956 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
6957 sensitive data.
6958 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
6959
6960 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
6961 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
6962 authentication-only ciphersuites.
6963 [Bodo Moeller]
6964
6965 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
6966 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
6967 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
6968 [Victor Duchovni]
6969
6970 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
6971 [Steve Henson]
6972
6973 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
6974 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
6975 [Steve Henson]
6976
6977 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
6978 run algorithm test programs.
6979 [Steve Henson]
6980
6981 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
6982 [Steve Henson]
6983
6984 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
6985 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
6986 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
6987 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
6988 message has informed the client about his choice.)
6989 [Bodo Moeller]
6990
6991 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
6992 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
6993 [Steve Henson]
6994
6995 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
6996
6997 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6998 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6999 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
7000
7001 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
7002 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
7003
7004 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
7005 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
7006
7007 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
7008 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
7009 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
7010
7011 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
7012 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
7013 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
7014 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
7015 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
7016 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
7017 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
7018 [Bodo Moeller]
7019
7020 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
7021
7022 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
7023 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
7024
7025 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
7026 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
7027 undesirable limitations.
7028 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
7029
7030 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
7031
7032 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
7033 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
7034 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
7035
7036 The latter two were purportedly from
7037 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
7038 appear there.
7039
7040 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
7041 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
7042 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
7043 [Bodo Moeller]
7044
7045 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
7046 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
7047 [Bodo Moeller]
7048
7049 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
7050
7051 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
7052 module in FIPS mode.
7053 [Steve Henson]
7054
7055 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
7056 [Steve Henson]
7057
7058 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
7059 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
7060 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
7061 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
7062 [Steve Henson]
7063
7064 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
7065
7066 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
7067 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
7068 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
7069 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
7070 the difference induced by this change.
7071 [Andy Polyakov]
7072
7073 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
7074
7075 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
7076 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
7077 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
7078 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
7079 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
7080
7081 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
7082 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
7083 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
7084
7085 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
7086 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
7087 [Steve Henson]
7088
7089 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
7090 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
7091 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
7092 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
7093 biased k.)
7094 [Bodo Moeller]
7095
7096 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
7097 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
7098 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
7099 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
7100 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
7101
7102 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
7103 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
7104 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
7105 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
7106 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
7107 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
7108
7109 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
7110
7111 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
7112 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
7113 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
7114 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
7115 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
7116 [Bodo Moeller]
7117
7118 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
7119 clients need.
7120 [Steve Henson]
7121
7122 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
7123 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
7124 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
7125 [Steve Henson]
7126
7127 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
7128 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
7129 structures constant.
7130 [Steve Henson]
7131
7132 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
7133
7134 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
7135 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
7136
7137 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
7138 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
7139 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
7140 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
7141 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
7142 some needed definitions.
7143 [Steve Henson]
7144
7145 *) Undo Cygwin change.
7146 [Ulf Möller]
7147
7148 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
7149 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
7150 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
7151 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
7152 [Richard Levitte]
7153
7154 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
7155
7156 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
7157 server and client random values. Previously
7158 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
7159 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
7160
7161 This change has negligible security impact because:
7162
7163 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
7164 data.
7165
7166 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
7167 handshake.
7168
7169 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
7170 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
7171 values.
7172
7173 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
7174 to our attention.
7175
7176 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
7177
7178 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
7179 [Ulf Möller]
7180
7181 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
7182 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
7183 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
7184
7185 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
7186 [Steve Henson]
7187
7188 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
7189 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
7190 [Andy Polyakov]
7191
7192 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
7193 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
7194 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
7195
7196 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
7197 [Steve Henson]
7198
7199 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
7200 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
7201 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
7202 certificates.
7203 [Steve Henson]
7204
7205 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
7206 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
7207 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
7208 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
7209
7210 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
7211 has chosen to ignore this fault)
7212 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
7213 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
7214 been given)
7215 [Richard Levitte]
7216
7217 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
7218
7219 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
7220 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
7221 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
7222 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
7223 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
7224 [Steve Henson]
7225
7226 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
7227 [Steve Henson]
7228
7229 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
7230 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
7231
7232 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
7233 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
7234 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
7235 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
7236 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
7237 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
7238 rather than being initialized to 1.
7239 [Steve Henson]
7240
7241 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
7242
7243 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
7244 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
7245 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
7246
7247 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
7248 (CVE-2004-0112)
7249 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
7250
7251 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
7252 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
7253 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
7254 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
7255 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
7256 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
7257 [Richard Levitte]
7258
7259 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
7260 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
7261 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
7262 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
7263 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
7264 for these cases.
7265 [Steve Henson]
7266
7267 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
7268 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
7269 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
7270 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
7271 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
7272 [Steve Henson]
7273
7274 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
7275 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
7276 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
7277 < 0.9.7.
7278 [Steve Henson]
7279
7280 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
7281 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7282
7283 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
7284 [Steve Henson]
7285
7286 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
7287
7288 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
7289
7290 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
7291 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
7292
7293 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
7294
7295 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
7296 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
7297
7298 [Steve Henson]
7299
7300 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
7301 exiting on the first error in a request.
7302 [Steve Henson]
7303
7304 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
7305 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
7306 specifications.
7307 [Steve Henson]
7308
7309 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
7310 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
7311 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
7312 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
7313
7314 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
7315 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
7316 [Richard Levitte]
7317
7318 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
7319 blocks during encryption.
7320 [Richard Levitte]
7321
7322 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
7323 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
7324 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
7325 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
7326 certain size.
7327 [Steve Henson]
7328
7329 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
7330 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
7331 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
7332 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
7333 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
7334 parser.
7335 [Steve Henson]
7336
7337 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
7338
7339 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
7340 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
7341 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
7342 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
7343 [Bodo Moeller]
7344
7345 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
7346 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
7347 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
7348 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
7349 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7350
7351 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
7352 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
7353 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
7354 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
7355 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
7356 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
7357 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
7358 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
7359 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
7360 [Bodo Moeller]
7361
7362 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
7363 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
7364 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
7365 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
7366 [Geoff Thorpe]
7367
7368 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
7369 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
7370 [Ulf Moeller]
7371
7372 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
7373
7374 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
7375 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
7376 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
7377 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
7378 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
7379
7380 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
7381 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
7382 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
7383
7384 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
7385 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
7386 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
7387 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
7388 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
7389
7390 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
7391 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
7392 used by default when no-err is given.
7393 [Richard Levitte]
7394
7395 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
7396 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
7397
7398 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
7399 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
7400 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
7401 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
7402 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
7403
7404 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
7405 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
7406 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
7407 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
7408
7409 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
7410
7411 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
7412
7413 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
7414
7415 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
7416 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
7417 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
7418 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
7419 root is omitted).
7420 [Steve Henson]
7421
7422 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
7423 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7424
7425 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
7426 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
7427 [Steve Henson]
7428
7429 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
7430 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
7431 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
7432 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
7433 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7434
7435 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
7436 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
7437 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
7438 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
7439 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
7440 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7441 followup to PR #377.
7442 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7443
7444 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
7445 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
7446 [Andy Polyakov]
7447
7448 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
7449 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
7450 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
7451 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
7452
7453 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
7454
7455 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
7456 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
7457
7458 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
7459 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
7460 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
7461 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
7462 client and server.
7463 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7464 PR #377.
7465 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7466
7467 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
7468 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
7469 removed entirely.
7470 [Richard Levitte]
7471
7472 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
7473 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
7474 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
7475 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
7476 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
7477 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
7478 of libcrypto.
7479 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
7480 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
7481 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
7482 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
7483 have to be made anyway).
7484 [Richard Levitte]
7485
7486 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
7487 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
7488 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
7489 [Steve Henson]
7490
7491 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
7492 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
7493 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
7494 [Richard Levitte]
7495
7496 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
7497 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
7498 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7499
7500 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
7501 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
7502 edit numbers of the version.
7503 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7504
7505 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
7506 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
7507 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
7508
7509 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
7510 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7511
7512 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7513 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7514 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7515
7516 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
7517 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7518
7519 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
7520 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7521
7522 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
7523 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7524
7525 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
7526 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7527
7528 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
7529 overflows.
7530 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7531
7532 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
7533 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
7534 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7535
7536 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
7537 representations in a platform independent manner.
7538 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7539
7540 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7541 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7542 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7543
7544 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
7545 indents.
7546 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7547
7548 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
7549 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7550
7551 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
7552 full. Fixed.
7553 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7554
7555 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
7556 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
7557 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7558
7559 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
7560 unconditionally).
7561 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7562
7563 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
7564 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7565
7566 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
7567 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7568
7569 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
7570 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7571
7572 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
7573 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7574
7575 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
7576 CBCParameter.
7577 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7578
7579 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
7580 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7581
7582 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
7583 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7584
7585 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
7586 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
7587 exploitable.
7588 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7589
7590 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
7591 the 0.9.6 release series:
7592
7593 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7594 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
7595 (CVE-2002-0657)
7596 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7597
7598 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
7599 [Richard Levitte]
7600
7601 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
7602 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
7603
7604 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
7605 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
7606
7607 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
7608 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
7609 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
7610 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
7611
7612 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
7613 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
7614 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
7615
7616 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
7617 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
7618 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
7619 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7620
7621 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
7622 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
7623 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
7624 some local tweaks:
7625
7626 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
7627 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
7628 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
7629 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7630 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7631 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
7632 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
7633 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
7634 done
7635
7636 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
7637 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
7638 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
7639 [Richard Levitte]
7640
7641 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
7642 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
7643 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
7644 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
7645 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
7646
7647 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
7648 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
7649
7650 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
7651 error in AES-CFB decryption.
7652 [Richard Levitte]
7653
7654 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
7655 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
7656 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
7657 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7658 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7659 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7660 [Steve Henson]
7661
7662 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7663 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7664 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7665 [Steve Henson]
7666
7667 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7668 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7669 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7670
7671 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7672 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7673 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7674 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7675 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7676 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7677 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7678 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7679
7680 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7681 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7682 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7683 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7684 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7685 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7686 [Steve Henson]
7687
7688 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7689 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7690 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7691 declaration has been changed from
7692 int (*cb)()
7693 into
7694 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7695 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7696 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7697 has been changed into
7698 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7699
7700 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7701 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
7702 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
7703
7704 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7705 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7706
7707 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7708 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7709 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7710 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7711 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7712 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7713 always load it have also been added.
7714 [Steve Henson]
7715
7716 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7717 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7718 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7719
7720 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7721
7722 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7723 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7724 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7725
7726 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7727 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7728 command line option can be used to specify an
7729 alternative file.
7730 [Steve Henson]
7731
7732 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7733 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7734 [Steve Henson]
7735
7736 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7737 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7738 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7739 [Steve Henson]
7740
7741 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7742 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7743 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7744 to work with the new engine framework.
7745 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7746
7747 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7748 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7749 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7750 to work with the new engine framework.
7751 [Richard Levitte]
7752
7753 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7754 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7755 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7756
7757 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7758 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7759
7760 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7761 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7762 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7763 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7764 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7765 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7766
7767 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7768 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7769
7770 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7771 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7772
7773 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7774 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7775 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7776 [Ben Laurie]
7777
7778 *) Add new functions
7779 ERR_peek_last_error
7780 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7781 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7782 These are similar to
7783 ERR_peek_error
7784 ERR_peek_error_line
7785 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7786 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7787 still in the error queue.
7788 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7789
7790 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7791 like:
7792 default_algorithms = ALL
7793 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7794 [Steve Henson]
7795
7796 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7797 [Steve Henson]
7798
7799 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7800 [Steve Henson]
7801
7802 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7803 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7804 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7805 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7806
7807 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7808 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7809
7810 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7811 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7812
7813 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7814 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7815 [Bodo Moeller]
7816
7817 *) New functions/macros
7818
7819 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7820 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7821 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7822 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7823
7824 to request calling a callback function
7825
7826 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7827 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7828
7829 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7830 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7831 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7832 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7833 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7834 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7835 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7836 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7837 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7838 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7839
7840 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7841 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7842 [Bodo Moeller]
7843
7844 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7845 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7846 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7847 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7848 the configuration scripts.
7849
7850 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7851 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7852 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7853
7854 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7855 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7856
7857 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7858 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7859 when reusing an existing buffer.
7860 [Bodo Moeller]
7861
7862 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7863 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7864 [Steve Henson]
7865
7866 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7867 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7868 [Ben Laurie]
7869
7870 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7871 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7872 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7873 has the same effect.
7874 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7875
7876 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7877 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7878 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7879 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7880 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7881 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7882 exception.
7883
7884 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7885 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7886 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7887 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7888
7889 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7890 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7891 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7892 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7893
7894 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7895 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7896 won't work.
7897
7898 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7899 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7900 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7901 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7902 default), and then completely removed.
7903 [Richard Levitte]
7904
7905 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7906 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7907 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7908 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7909 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7910 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7911 particular extension is supported.
7912 [Steve Henson]
7913
7914 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7915 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7916 [Steve Henson]
7917
7918 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7919 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7920 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7921 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7922 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7923 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7924 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7925 requires the destination to be valid.
7926
7927 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7928 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7929 [Steve Henson]
7930
7931 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7932 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7933 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7934 [Bodo Moeller]
7935
7936 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7937 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7938
7939 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7940 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7941 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7942 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7943 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7944 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7945 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7946 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7947 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
7948 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
7949 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
7950 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
7951 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
7952 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
7953 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
7954 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
7955 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
7956 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
7957 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
7958 the new code.
7959 [Geoff Thorpe]
7960
7961 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
7962 [Steve Henson]
7963
7964 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
7965 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
7966 become part of libeay.num as well.
7967 [Richard Levitte]
7968
7969 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
7970 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
7971 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
7972 false once a handshake has been completed.
7973 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
7974 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
7975 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
7976 client has followed the request.)
7977 [Bodo Moeller]
7978
7979 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
7980 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
7981 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
7982 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
7983
7984 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
7985 more bits available for options that should not be part of
7986 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
7987 [Bodo Moeller]
7988
7989 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
7990 [Steve Henson]
7991
7992 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
7993 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
7994 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
7995 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7996
7997 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
7998 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7999 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8000
8001 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
8002 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
8003 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
8004 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
8005 [Geoff Thorpe]
8006
8007 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
8008 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
8009 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
8010 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
8011 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
8012 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
8013 [Geoff Thorpe]
8014
8015 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
8016 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
8017 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
8018 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
8019 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
8020 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
8021 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
8022 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
8023 [Geoff Thorpe]
8024
8025 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
8026 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
8027 [Geoff Thorpe]
8028
8029 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
8030 [Ben Laurie]
8031
8032 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
8033 md_data void pointer.
8034 [Ben Laurie]
8035
8036 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
8037 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
8038 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
8039 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
8040 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
8041 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
8042 [Ben Laurie]
8043
8044 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
8045 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
8046 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
8047 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
8048 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
8049 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
8050 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
8051 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
8052 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
8053 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
8054 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
8055 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
8056 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
8057 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
8058 rather than letting it slide.
8059
8060 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
8061 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
8062 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
8063 [Geoff Thorpe]
8064
8065 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
8066 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
8067 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
8068 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
8069 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
8070 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
8071 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
8072 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
8073 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
8074 [Geoff Thorpe]
8075
8076 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
8077 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
8078 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
8079 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
8080 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
8081
8082 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
8083 [Geoff Thorpe]
8084
8085 *) Add EVP test program.
8086 [Ben Laurie]
8087
8088 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
8089 [Ben Laurie]
8090
8091 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
8092 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
8093 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
8094 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
8095 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
8096 [Steve Henson]
8097
8098 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
8099 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
8100 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
8101 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
8102 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
8103 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
8104 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
8105
8106 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
8107 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
8108 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
8109 Usage example:
8110
8111 EVP_MD_CTX md;
8112
8113 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
8114 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
8115 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
8116 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
8117 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
8118
8119 [Ben Laurie]
8120
8121 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
8122 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
8123 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
8124 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
8125 anyway): E.g.,
8126
8127 des_key_schedule ks;
8128
8129 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
8130 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
8131
8132 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
8133 [Ben Laurie]
8134
8135 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
8136 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
8137 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
8138 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
8139 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
8140 functions prevents this.
8141 [Steve Henson]
8142
8143 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
8144 [Ben Laurie]
8145
8146 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
8147 correct _ecb suffix.
8148 [Ben Laurie]
8149
8150 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
8151 revocation information is handled using the text based index
8152 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
8153 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
8154 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
8155 [Steve Henson]
8156
8157 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
8158 [Richard Levitte]
8159
8160 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
8161 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
8162 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
8163 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
8164
8165 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
8166 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
8167
8168 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
8169 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
8170 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
8171 via Richard Levitte]
8172
8173 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
8174 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
8175 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
8176 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
8177 [Geoff Thorpe]
8178
8179 *) Speed up EVP routines.

8196
8197 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
8198 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
8199
8200 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
8201 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
8202 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
8203 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
8204 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
8205 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
8206 [Steve Henson]
8207
8208 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
8209 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
8210 [Richard Levitte]
8211
8212 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
8213 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
8214 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
8215 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
8216
8217 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
8218 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
8219 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
8220 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
8221 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
8222 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
8223 callback.
8224 [Richard Levitte]
8225
8226 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
8227 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
8228 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
8229 and interrupts/cancellations.
8230 [Richard Levitte]
8231
8232 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
8233 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
8234 [Steve Henson]
8235
8236 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
8237 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
8238 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
8239
8240 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
8241 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
8242 kind of callback.
8243 [Richard Levitte]
8244
8245 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
8246 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
8247 than this minimum value is recommended.
8248 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8249
8250 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
8251 that are easily reachable.
8252 [Richard Levitte]
8253
8254 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
8255 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
8256
8257 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
8258
8259 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
8260 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
8261 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
8262 needed for static libraries under Win32.
8263 [Steve Henson]
8264
8265 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
8266 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
8267 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
8268 [Steve Henson]
8269
8270 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
8271 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
8272 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
8273 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
8274 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
8275 internally such as S/MIME.
8276
8277 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
8278 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
8279 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
8280
8281 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
8282 applications.
8283 [Steve Henson]
8284
8285 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
8286 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
8287 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
8288 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
8289
8290 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
8291
8292 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
8293
8294 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
8295 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
8296 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
8297 handling.
8298 [Steve Henson]
8299
8300 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
8301 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
8302 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
8303 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
8304 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
8305 a window system and the like.
8306 [Richard Levitte]
8307
8308 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
8309 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
8310 [Geoff]
8311
8312 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
8313 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
8314 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
8315 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
8316 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
8317 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
8318 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
8319 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
8320 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
8321 ENGINE structure.
8322 [Geoff]
8323
8324 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
8325 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
8326 tag cache.
8327 [Steve Henson]
8328
8329 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
8330 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
8331 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
8332 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
8333 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
8334 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
8335 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
8336 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
8337 [Geoff]
8338
8339 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
8340 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
8341 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
8342 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
8343 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
8344 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
8345 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
8346 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
8347 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
8348 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
8349 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
8350 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
8351 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
8352 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
8353 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
8354 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
8355 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
8356 [Geoff]
8357
8358 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
8359 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
8360 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
8361 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
8362 internal engine_int.h header.
8363 [Geoff]
8364
8365 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
8366 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
8367 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
8368 modify their own ones).
8369 [Geoff]
8370
8371 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
8372 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
8373 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
8374 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
8375 later on via ctrl() commands.
8376 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
8377 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
8378 structural references.
8379 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
8380 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
8381 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
8382 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
8383 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
8384 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
8385 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
8386 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
8387 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
8388 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
8389 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
8390 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
8391 [Geoff]
8392
8393 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
8394 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
8395 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
8396 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
8397 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
8398 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
8399 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
8400 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
8401 [Bodo Moeller]
8402
8403 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
8404 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
8405 [Steve Henson]
8406
8407 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
8408 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
8409 [Steve Henson]
8410
8411 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
8412 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
8413 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
8414 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
8415 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
8416 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
8417 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
8418 [Steve Henson]
8419
8420 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
8421 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
8422 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
8423 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
8424 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
8425
8426 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
8427 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
8428 generator).
8429 [Bodo Moeller]
8430
8431 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
8432
8433 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
8434 operations and provides various method functions that can also
8435 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
8436
8437 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
8438 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
8439
8440 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
8441 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
8442 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
8443
8444 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
8445 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
8446
8447 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
8448 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
8449
8450 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
8451
8452 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
8453 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
8454 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
8455 [Bodo Moeller]
8456
8457 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
8458 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
8459 [Richard Levitte]
8460
8461 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
8462 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
8463 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
8464 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
8465 is 40 of more characters long.
8466 [Steve Henson]
8467
8468 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
8469 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
8470 pointers.
8471 [Steve Henson]
8472
8473 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
8474 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
8475 [Bodo Moeller]
8476
8477 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
8478 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
8479 might.
8480 [Steve Henson]
8481
8482 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
8483
8484 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
8485 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
8486
8487 ASN1 error codes
8488 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
8489 ...
8490 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
8491 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
8492 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
8493 ...
8494 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
8495 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
8496
8497 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
8498 [Bodo Moeller]
8499
8500 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
8501 suffices.
8502 [Bodo Moeller]
8503
8504 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
8505 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
8506 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
8507 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
8508 and
8509 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
8510
8511 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
8512 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
8513
8514 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
8515 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
8516 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
8517 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
8518 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
8519 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
8520
8521 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
8522 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
8523
8524 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
8525 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8526
8527 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
8528 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
8529
8530 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
8531 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
8532 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8533 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
8534
8535 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
8536 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
8537
8538 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
8539 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
8540
8541 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
8542 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
8543 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
8544 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
8545 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
8546 [Richard Levitte]
8547
8548 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
8549 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
8550 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
8551 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
8552 [Steve Henson]
8553
8554 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
8555 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
8556 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
8557 trust settings.
8558 [Steve Henson]
8559
8560 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
8561 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
8562 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
8563 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
8564 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
8565 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
8566 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
8567 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
8568 ocsp utility.
8569 [Steve Henson]
8570
8571 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
8572 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
8573 [Steve Henson]
8574
8575 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
8576 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
8577 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
8578 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
8579 [Steve Henson]
8580
8581 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
8582 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
8583 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
8584 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
8585 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
8586 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
8587 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
8588 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
8589 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
8590 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
8591 [Steve Henson]
8592
8593 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
8594 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
8595 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
8596 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
8597 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
8598 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
8599 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
8600 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8601
8602 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
8603 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
8604 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
8605 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
8606 [Richard Levitte]
8607
8608 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
8609 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
8610 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
8611 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
8612 opensslconf.h.
8613 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
8614 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
8615 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
8616 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
8617 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
8618 what is available.
8619 [Richard Levitte]
8620
8621 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
8622 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
8623 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
8624 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
8625 auto incremented.
8626 [Steve Henson]
8627
8628 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
8629 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
8630 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
8631 [Steve Henson]
8632
8633 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
8634 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
8635 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
8636 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
8637 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
8638 [Steve Henson]
8639
8640 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
8641 [Steve Henson]
8642
8643 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
8644 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
8645 option to ocsp utility.
8646 [Steve Henson]
8647
8648 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
8649 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
8650 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
8651 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
8652 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
8653 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
8654 the request is nonce-less.
8655 [Steve Henson]
8656
8657 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8658 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8659 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8660 [Bodo Moeller]
8661
8662 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8663 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8664 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8665 [Steve Henson]
8666
8667 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8668 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8669 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8670 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8671 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8672 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8673
8674 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8675 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8676 appear to exist.
8677 [Steve Henson]
8678
8679 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8680 additional certificates supplied.
8681 [Steve Henson]
8682
8683 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8684 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8685 signature against.
8686 [Richard Levitte]
8687
8688 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8689 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8690 AES OIDs.
8691
8692 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8693 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8694 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8695 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8696 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8697 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8698 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8699 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8700 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8701
8702 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8703 request to response.
8704 [Steve Henson]
8705
8706 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8707 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8708 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8709 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8710 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8711 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8712 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8713 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8714 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8715 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8716 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8717 [Steve Henson]
8718
8719 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8720 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8721 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8722 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8723 [Steve Henson]
8724
8725 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8726 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8727
8728 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8729 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8730 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8731 [Steve Henson]
8732
8733 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8734 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8735 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8736 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8737 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8738
8739 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8740 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8741 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8742 [Steve Henson]
8743
8744 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8745 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8746 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8747 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8748 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8749 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8750 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8751 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8752
8753 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8754 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8755 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8756 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8757 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8758 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8759 [Steve Henson]
8760
8761 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8762 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8763 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8764 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8765 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8766 printout format cleaned up.
8767 [Steve Henson]
8768
8769 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8770 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8771 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8772 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8773 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8774 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8775 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8776 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8777 [Steve Henson]
8778
8779 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8780 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8781 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8782 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8783 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8784 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8785 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8786 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8787 [Steve Henson]
8788
8789 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8790 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8791 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8792 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8793 section to use.
8794 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8795
8796 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8797 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8798 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8799 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8800 [Steve Henson]
8801
8802 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8803 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8804 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8805 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8806 in the index file.
8807 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8808
8809 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8810 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8811 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8812 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8813
8814 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8815 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8816
8817 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8818 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8819 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8820 [Steve Henson]
8821
8822 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8823 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8824 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8825 [Bodo Moeller]
8826
8827 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8828 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8829 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8830 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8831 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8832 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8833 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8834 functions are provided:
8835
8836 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8837 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8838 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8839 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8840
8841 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8842 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8843 extended allocation function is enabled.
8844 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8845 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8846 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8847
8848 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8849 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8850 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8851 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8852 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8853 [Geoff Thorpe]
8854
8855 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8856 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8857 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8858 be queried.
8859 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8860 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8861 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8862 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8863
8864 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8865 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8866 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8867 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8868 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8869 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8870 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8871 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8872 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8873 [Richard Levitte]
8874
8875 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8876 provide utility functions which an application needing
8877 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8878 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8879 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8880
8881 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8882 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8883 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8884 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8885 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8886 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8887 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8888 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8889 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8890
8891 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8892 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8893 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8894 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8895 [Steve Henson]
8896
8897 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8898 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8899 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8900 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8901 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8902 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8903 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8904 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8905 will be added elsewhere.
8906 [Steve Henson]
8907
8908 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8909 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8910 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8911 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8912 [Steve Henson]
8913
8914 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8915 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8916 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8917 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8918 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8919 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8920 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8921 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8922 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8923 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8924 to produce the required SET OF.
8925 [Steve Henson]
8926
8927 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8928 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8929 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8930 [Richard Levitte]
8931
8932 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8933 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8934 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8935 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8936 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8937 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8938 [Steve Henson]
8939
8940 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8941 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8942 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8943 [Steve Henson]
8944
8945 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8946 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8947 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
8948 [Richard Levitte]
8949
8950 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
8951 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
8952 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
8953 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
8954 code will still work when these eventually go away.
8955 [Steve Henson]
8956
8957 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
8958 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
8959 [Steve Henson]
8960
8961 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
8962 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
8963 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
8964 certificates and CRLs.
8965 [Steve Henson]
8966
8967 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
8968 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
8969 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
8970 [Steve Henson]
8971
8972 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
8973 entries for variables.
8974 [Steve Henson]
8975
8976 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
8977 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
8978 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
8979 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
8980 [Bodo Moeller]
8981
8982 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
8983 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
8984 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
8985 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
8986 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
8987 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
8988 [Bodo Moeller]
8989
8990 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
8991 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
8992
8993 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
8994 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
8995 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
8996 [Steve Henson]
8997
8998 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
8999 print routines.
9000 [Steve Henson]
9001
9002 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
9003 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
9004 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
9005 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
9006 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
9007 order did not reflect the encoded order.
9008 [Steve Henson]
9009
9010 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
9011 [Steve Henson]
9012
9013 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
9014 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
9015 for now but they will eventually go away.
9016 [Steve Henson]
9017
9018 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
9019 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
9020 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
9021 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
9022 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
9023 has also been converted to the new form.
9024 [Steve Henson]
9025
9026 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
9027 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
9028 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
9029 for negative moduli.
9030 [Bodo Moeller]
9031
9032 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
9033 of not touching the result's sign bit.
9034 [Bodo Moeller]
9035
9036 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
9037 set.
9038 [Bodo Moeller]
9039
9040 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
9041 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
9042 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
9043 type-specific callbacks.
9044 [Geoff Thorpe]
9045
9046 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
9047 RFC 2712.
9048 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
9049 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
9050
9051 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
9052 in sections depending on the subject.
9053 [Richard Levitte]
9054
9055 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
9056 Windows.
9057 [Richard Levitte]
9058
9059 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
9060 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
9061 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
9062 be handled deterministically).
9063 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
9064
9065 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
9066 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
9067 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
9068 [Bodo Moeller]
9069
9070 *) New function BN_kronecker.
9071 [Bodo Moeller]
9072
9073 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
9074 positive unless both parameters are zero.
9075 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
9076 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
9077 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
9078 [Bodo Moeller]
9079
9080 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
9081 sign of the number in question.
9082
9083 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
9084
9085 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
9086 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
9087 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
9088 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
9089 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
9090 [Bodo Moeller]
9091
9092 *) New function BN_swap.
9093 [Bodo Moeller]
9094
9095 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
9096 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
9097 results on negative inputs.
9098 [Bodo Moeller]
9099
9100 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
9101 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
9102 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
9103 [Bodo Moeller]
9104
9105 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
9106 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
9107 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
9108 and add new functions:
9109
9110 BN_nnmod
9111 BN_mod_sqr
9112 BN_mod_add
9113 BN_mod_add_quick
9114 BN_mod_sub
9115 BN_mod_sub_quick
9116 BN_mod_lshift1
9117 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
9118 BN_mod_lshift
9119 BN_mod_lshift_quick
9120
9121 These functions always generate non-negative results.
9122
9123 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
9124 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
9125
9126 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
9127 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
9128 be reduced modulo m.
9129 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
9130
9131 #if 0
9132 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
9133 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
9134 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
9135
9136 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
9137 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
9138 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
9139 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
9140 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
9141 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
9142 differing sizes.
9143 [Richard Levitte]
9144 #endif
9145
9146 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
9147 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
9148 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
9149 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
9150 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
9151
9152 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
9153 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
9154 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
9155 cause any problems.
9156 [Bodo Moeller]
9157
9158 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
9159 [Richard Levitte]
9160
9161 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
9162 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
9163 [Richard Levitte]
9164
9165 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
9166 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
9167 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
9168 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
9169 time)
9170 [Richard Levitte]
9171
9172 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
9173 [Richard Levitte]
9174
9175 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
9176 [Richard Levitte]
9177
9178 *) Add the following functions:
9179
9180 ENGINE_load_cswift()
9181 ENGINE_load_chil()
9182 ENGINE_load_atalla()
9183 ENGINE_load_nuron()
9184 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
9185
9186 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
9187 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
9188 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
9189 libraries unless it's really needed.
9190
9191 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
9192 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
9193 declarations (they differed!).
9194 [Richard Levitte]
9195
9196 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
9197 [Richard Levitte]
9198
9199 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
9200 [Richard Levitte]
9201
9202 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
9203 [Bodo Moeller]
9204
9205 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
9206 identity, and test if they are actually available.
9207 [Richard Levitte]
9208
9209 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
9210 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
9211 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
9212
9213 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
9214 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
9215 [Richard Levitte]
9216
9217 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
9218 [Richard Levitte]
9219
9220 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
9221 [Richard Levitte]
9222
9223 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
9224 [Ben Laurie]
9225
9226 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
9227 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
9228 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
9229
9230 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
9231 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
9232 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
9233 different shared library filenames on each system.
9234 [Geoff Thorpe]
9235
9236 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
9237 [Richard Levitte]
9238
9239 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
9240 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
9241 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
9242 of two sections.
9243 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
9244
9245 *) NCONF changes.
9246 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
9247 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
9248 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
9249 binary backward compatibility.
9250 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
9251 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
9252 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
9253 LDAP server.
9254 [Richard Levitte]
9255
9256 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
9257 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
9258 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
9259 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
9260 this case.
9261 [Steve Henson]
9262
9263 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
9264 [Ben Laurie]
9265
9266 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
9267 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
9268 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
9269 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
9270 set.
9271 [Steve Henson]
9272
9273 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
9274 [Richard Levitte]
9275
9276 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
9277
9278 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
9279 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
9280 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
9281
9282 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
9283
9284 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
9285
9286 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
9287 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
9288 [Steve Henson]
9289
9290 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
9291
9292 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
9293
9294 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
9295 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
9296
9297 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
9298 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
9299
9300 [Steve Henson]
9301
9302 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
9303 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
9304 specifications.
9305 [Steve Henson]
9306
9307 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
9308 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
9309 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
9310 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
9311
9312 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
9313 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
9314 [Richard Levitte]
9315
9316 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
9317
9318 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
9319 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
9320 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
9321 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
9322 [Bodo Moeller]
9323
9324 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
9325 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
9326 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
9327 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
9328 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9329
9330 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
9331 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
9332 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
9333 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
9334 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
9335 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
9336 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
9337 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
9338 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
9339 [Bodo Moeller]
9340
9341 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
9342
9343 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
9344 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
9345 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
9346 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
9347 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
9348
9349 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
9350 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
9351 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
9352
9353 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
9354
9355 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
9356 memory from its contents. This is done with a counter that will
9357 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
9358 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
9359 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
9360 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
9361 [Geoff Thorpe]
9362
9363 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
9364 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
9365 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
9366 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
9367 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
9368 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9369
9370 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
9371 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
9372 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
9373
9374 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
9375 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
9376 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
9377 EVP_cleanup().
9378 [Richard Levitte]
9379
9380 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
9381 being properly terminated.
9382 [Richard Levitte]
9383
9384 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
9385 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
9386 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
9387 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
9388
9389 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
9390 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
9391 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
9392 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
9393 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
9394 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
9395 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
9396 change.
9397 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
9398
9399 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
9400 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
9401 [Bodo Moeller]
9402
9403 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
9404 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
9405 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
9406 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
9407 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
9408 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
9409 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
9410 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
9411
9412 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
9413 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
9414 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
9415 (see [openssl.org #212]).
9416 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
9417
9418 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
9419 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
9420 [Steve Henson]
9421
9422 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
9423
9424 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
9425 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
9426 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
9427
9428 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
9429
9430 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
9431 and get fix the header length calculation.
9432 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
9433 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
9434 Steve Henson]
9435
9436 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
9437 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
9438 assertions could call abort()).
9439 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
9440
9441 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
9442
9443 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9444 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9445 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9446 supplied buffer.
9447 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9448
9449 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
9450 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
9451 by the selection routines (PR #130).
9452 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9453
9454 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
9455 [Nils Larsch]
9456
9457 *) New option
9458 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
9459 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
9460 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
9461
9462 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
9463 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
9464 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
9465 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
9466 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
9467 applications.
9468 [Bodo Moeller]
9469
9470 *) Changes in security patch:
9471
9472 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
9473 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
9474 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
9475 F30602-01-2-0537.
9476
9477 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9478 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9479 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9480 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
9481 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9482
9483 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
9484 happen in practice.
9485 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9486
9487 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
9488 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
9489 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
9490
9491 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
9492 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
9493 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9494
9495 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
9496 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
9497 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9498
9499 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
9500
9501 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
9502 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
9503 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
9504
9505 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
9506 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
9507
9508 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
9509 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
9510 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
9511 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
9512 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
9513 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
9514 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9515
9516 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
9517 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
9518 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
9519 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
9520 [Bodo Moeller]
9521
9522 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
9523 [Bodo Moeller]
9524
9525 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
9526 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
9527 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
9528 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
9529 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
9530 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9531
9532 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
9533 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
9534 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
9535 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
9536 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
9537 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9538
9539 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
9540 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
9541 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
9542 BN_generate_prime().)
9543
9544 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
9545 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
9546 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
9547 better.
9548 [Bodo Moeller]
9549
9550 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
9551 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
9552 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9553
9554 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
9555 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
9556 when using non-blocking I/O.
9557 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
9558
9559 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
9560 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
9561
9562 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
9563 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
9564 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9565
9566 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
9567 configuration for the versions before that.
9568 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
9569
9570 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
9571 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
9572 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
9573 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
9574 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9575
9576 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
9577 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
9578 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
9579 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9580
9581 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
9582 value is 0.
9583 [Richard Levitte]
9584
9585 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
9586 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
9587 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
9588
9589 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
9590 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
9591
9592 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
9593 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
9594 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
9595 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
9596 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
9597 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
9598 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
9599 session cache.
9600
9601 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
9602 using a local variable.
9603 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
9604
9605 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
9606 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
9607 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9608
9609 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
9610 [Richard Levitte]
9611
9612 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
9613 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
9614
9615 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
9616 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
9617 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
9618
9619 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
9620
9621 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
9622 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
9623 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
9624 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
9625 [Bodo Moeller]
9626
9627 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
9628 present.
9629 [Steve Henson]
9630
9631 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
9632 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
9633 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
9634 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
9635 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
9636
9637 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
9638 returns early because it has nothing to do.
9639 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9640
9641 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9642 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
9643 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9644
9645 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9646 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
9647 (Use engine 'keyclient')
9648 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
9649
9650 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
9651 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
9652 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
9653 modules).
9654 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
9655
9656 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9657 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9658 from 0.9.7.
9659 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9660
9661 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9662 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9663 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9664 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9665
9666 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9667 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9668 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9669 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9670
9671 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9672 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9673
9674 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9675 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9676 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9677 [Bodo Moeller]
9678
9679 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9680 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9681 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9682 become invalid.
9683 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9684
9685 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9686 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9687 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9688 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9689 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9690 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9691 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9692 [Bodo Moeller]
9693
9694 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9695 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9696 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9697 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9698
9699 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9700 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9701 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9702 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9703 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9704 the client will at least see that alert.
9705 [Bodo Moeller]
9706
9707 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9708 correctly.
9709 [Bodo Moeller]
9710
9711 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9712 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9713 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9714
9715 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9716 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9717 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9718 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9719 HelloRequest.
9720
9721 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9722 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9723 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9724
9725 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9726 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9727 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9728 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9729 may leak via logfiles.)
9730
9731 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9732 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9733 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9734 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9735 the legal range.
9736 [Bodo Moeller]
9737
9738 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9739 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9740 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9741
9742 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9743 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9744 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9745 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9746 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9747 [Bodo Moeller]
9748
9749 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9750 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9751
9752 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9753 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9754 followed by modular reduction.
9755 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9756
9757 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9758 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9759 [Bodo Moeller]
9760
9761 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9762 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9763 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9764 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9765 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9766
9767 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9768 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9769
9770 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9771 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9772 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9773
9774 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9775 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9776 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9777 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9778 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9779 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9780 automatically.
9781 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9782
9783 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9784 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9785 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9786 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9787 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9788
9789 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9790 [Andy Polyakov]
9791
9792 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9793 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9794 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9795 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9796 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9797 to allow the necessary settings.
9798 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9799
9800 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9801 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9802 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9803 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9804 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9805
9806 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9807 dh->length and always used
9808
9809 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9810
9811 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9812 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9813 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9814 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9815 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9816 dh->length.
9817
9818 So switch back to
9819
9820 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9821
9822 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9823 otherwise.
9824 [Bodo Moeller]
9825
9826 *) In
9827
9828 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9829 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9830 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9831 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9832
9833 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9834 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9835 always reject numbers >= n.
9836 [Bodo Moeller]
9837
9838 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9839 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9840 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9841 variable) is not atomic.
9842 [Bodo Moeller]
9843
9844 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9845 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9846 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9847 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9848
9849 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9850 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9851
9852 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9853 little-endian MIPS.
9854 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9855
9856 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9857 [Richard Levitte]
9858
9859 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9860
9861 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9862 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9863 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9864 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9865 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9866 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9867 to traverse all of 'state'.
9868
9869 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9870 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9871 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9872
9873 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9874 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9875
9876 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9877 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9878 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9879 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9880 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9881 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9882 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9883 further strengthens the PRNG.
9884 [Bodo Moeller]
9885
9886 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9887 [Andy Polyakov]
9888
9889 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9890 an error message in this case.
9891 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9892
9893 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9894 [Steve Henson]
9895
9896 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9897 positive and less than q.
9898 [Bodo Moeller]
9899
9900 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9901 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9902 that itself.
9903 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9904
9905 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9906 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9907 [Bodo Moeller]
9908
9909 *) Fix OAEP check.
9910 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9911
9912 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9913 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9914 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9915 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9916 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9917 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9918 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9919 paper.)
9920
9921 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9922 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9923 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9924 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9925
9926 Both problems are now fixed.
9927 [Bodo Moeller]
9928
9929 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9930 (previously it was 1024).
9931 [Bodo Moeller]
9932
9933 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9934 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9935 [Steve Henson]
9936
9937 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9938 [Steve Henson]
9939
9940 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9941 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9942 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9943 [Steve Henson]
9944
9945 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9946 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9947 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
9948 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
9949 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
9950 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
9951 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
9952 environment variables.
9953
9954 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
9955 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
9956 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
9957 [Bodo Moeller]
9958
9959 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
9960 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
9961 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
9962 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
9963 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
9964 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
9965 [Bodo Moeller]
9966
9967 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
9968 versions of 'test'.
9969 [Bodo Moeller]
9970
9971 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
9972
9973 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
9974 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
9975
9976 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
9977 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
9978 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
9979 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
9980 CygWin.
9981 [Richard Levitte]
9982
9983 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
9984 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
9985 amount of data available.
9986 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
9987 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9988
9989 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
9990 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
9991 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
9992 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
9993 [Bodo Moeller]
9994
9995 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
9996 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
9997 and UnixWare.
9998 [Richard Levitte]
9999
10000 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
10001 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
10002 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
10003 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
10004 [Ulf Moeller]
10005
10006 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
10007 [Andy Polyakov]
10008
10009 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
10010 [Richard Levitte]
10011
10012 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
10013 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
10014 [Steve Henson]
10015 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
10016
10017 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
10018 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
10019 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
10020 (but broken) behaviour.
10021 [Steve Henson]
10022
10023 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
10024 it when found.
10025 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
10026
10027 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
10028 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
10029 [Bodo Moeller]
10030
10031 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
10032 did not exist.
10033 [Bodo Moeller]
10034
10035 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
10036 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
10037
10038 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
10039 [Richard Levitte]
10040
10041 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
10042 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
10043 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
10044
10045 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
10046 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
10047 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
10048 [Steve Henson]
10049
10050 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
10051 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
10052 [Ulf Moeller]
10053
10054 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
10055 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
10056
10057 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
10058
10059 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
10060
10061 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
10062 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
10063 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
10064 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
10065 [Bodo Moeller]
10066
10067 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
10068 [Lutz Jaenicke]
10069
10070 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
10071 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
10072 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
10073
10074 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
10075 was empty.
10076 [Steve Henson]
10077 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
10078
10079 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
10080 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
10081 but the code is actually correct.
10082 [Steve Henson]
10083
10084 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
10085 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
10086 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
10087 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
10088 and leaves the highest bit random.
10089 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
10090
10091 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
10092 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
10093 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
10094 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
10095 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
10096 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
10097 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
10098 [Bodo Moeller]
10099
10100 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
10101 [Ulf Moeller]
10102
10103 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
10104 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
10105 [Steve Henson]
10106
10107 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
10108 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
10109 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
10110 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
10111 headers.
10112 [Richard Levitte]
10113
10114 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
10115 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
10116 and break the signature.
10117 [Steve Henson]
10118 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
10119
10120 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
10121 DH ciphersuites.
10122 [Steve Henson]
10123
10124 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
10125 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
10126 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
10127 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
10128 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
10129 [Bodo Moeller]
10130
10131 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
10132 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
10133
10134 *) ./config script fixes.
10135 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
10136
10137 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
10138 [Bodo Moeller]
10139
10140 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
10141 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
10142 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
10143 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
10144 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
10145
10146 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
10147 call failed, free the DSA structure.
10148 [Bodo Moeller]
10149
10150 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
10151 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
10152 [Steve Henson]
10153
10154 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
10155 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
10156 when writing a 32767 byte record.
10157 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
10158
10159 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
10160 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
10161
10162 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
10163 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
10164 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
10165 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
10166 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
10167
10168 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
10169 [Bodo Moeller]
10170
10171 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
10172 [Ulf Möller]
10173
10174 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
10175 [Ulf Möller]
10176
10177 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
10178 [Bodo Moeller]
10179
10180 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
10181 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
10182 [Bodo Moeller]
10183
10184 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
10185 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
10186 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
10187 result of the server certificate verification.)
10188 [Lutz Jaenicke]
10189
10190 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
10191 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
10192 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
10193 [Bodo Moeller]
10194
10195 *) Fix SSL_peek:
10196 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
10197 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
10198 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
10199 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
10200 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
10201 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
10202 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
10203 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
10204 [Bodo Moeller]
10205
10206 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
10207 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
10208 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
10209 happening the other way round.
10210 [Geoff Thorpe]
10211
10212 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
10213 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
10214 [Bodo Moeller]
10215
10216 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
10217 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
10218 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
10219 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
10220 [Richard Levitte]
10221
10222 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
10223 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
10224
10225 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
10226
10227 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
10228 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
10229 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
10230 that.
10231
10232 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
10233
10234 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
10235
10236 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
10237 static ones.
10238 [Richard Levitte]
10239
10240 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
10241
10242 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
10243 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
10244 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
10245 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
10246 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
10247
10248 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
10249 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
10250 matter what.
10251 [Richard Levitte]
10252
10253 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
10254 [Lutz Jaenicke]
10255
10256 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
10257
10258 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
10259 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
10260 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
10261 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
10262 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
10263 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
10264 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
10265 by the Finished messages.
10266 [Bodo Moeller]
10267
10268 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
10269 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
10270
10271 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
10272 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
10273 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
10274 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
10275 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
10276 appropriately.
10277 [Steve Henson]
10278
10279 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
10280 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
10281 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
10282 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
10283 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
10284 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
10285 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
10286 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
10287 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
10288 together.
10289 [Steve Henson]
10290
10291 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
10292 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
10293 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
10294 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
10295
10296 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
10297 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
10298 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
10299 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
10300 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
10301 the answer.
10302
10303 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
10304 been tested well enough.
10305 [Richard Levitte]
10306
10307 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
10308 it can return incorrect results.
10309 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
10310 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
10311 [Bodo Moeller]
10312
10313 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
10314 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
10315 include zero length content when signing messages.
10316 [Steve Henson]
10317
10318 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
10319 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
10320 [Bodo Möller]
10321
10322 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
10323 [Richard Levitte]
10324
10325 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
10326 wrong sign.
10327 [Ulf Möller]
10328
10329 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
10330 packages. The default package contains applications, application
10331 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
10332 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
10333 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
10334 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
10335 [Richard Levitte]
10336
10337 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
10338 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10339
10340 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
10341 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
10342
10343 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
10344 random number < q in the DSA library.
10345 [Ulf Möller]
10346
10347 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
10348 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
10349 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
10350 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
10351 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
10352 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
10353 just makes things more complicated.)
10354 [Bodo Moeller]
10355
10356 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
10357 from EGD.
10358 [Ben Laurie]
10359
10360 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
10361 work better on such systems.
10362 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10363
10364 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
10365 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
10366 keyid to the certificates aux info.
10367 [Steve Henson]
10368
10369 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
10370 if there was more than one signature.
10371 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
10372
10373 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
10374 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
10375 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
10376 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
10377 [Richard Levitte]
10378
10379 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
10380 rather than always using the current time.
10381 [Steve Henson]
10382
10383 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
10384 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
10385 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
10386 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
10387 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
10388 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
10389
10390 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
10391 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
10392
10393 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
10394
10395 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
10396 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
10397 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
10398 the same hash value.
10399
10400 As a result various functions (which were all internal
10401 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
10402 structure. This will break anything that messed round
10403 with X509_STORE internally.
10404
10405 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
10406 exact match, rather than just subject name.
10407
10408 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
10409 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
10410 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
10411 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
10412 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
10413 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
10414 entirely (maybe later...).
10415
10416 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
10417
10418 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
10419 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
10420 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
10421 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
10422 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
10423 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
10424 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
10425 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
10426
10427 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
10428 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
10429
10430 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
10431 to customise the verify behaviour.
10432 [Steve Henson]
10433
10434 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
10435 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
10436 [Steve Henson]
10437
10438 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
10439 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
10440 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
10441 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
10442 request is improperly encoded.
10443 [Steve Henson]
10444
10445 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
10446 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
10447 BIO_write(b, ...).
10448
10449 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
10450 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
10451
10452 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
10453 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
10454 words set to zero.)
10455 [Bodo Moeller]
10456
10457 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
10458 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
10459 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
10460 [Bodo Moeller]
10461
10462 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
10463 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
10464 BIO/fp routines also added.
10465 [Steve Henson]
10466
10467 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
10468 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
10469
10470 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
10471 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
10472 demos/state_machine.
10473 [Ben Laurie]
10474
10475 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
10476 generation and verification.
10477 [Steve Henson]
10478
10479 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
10480 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
10481 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
10482 encode and decode it manually.
10483 [Steve Henson]
10484
10485 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
10486 compile under VC++.
10487 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
10488
10489 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
10490 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
10491 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
10492 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
10493
10494 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
10495 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
10496 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
10497 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
10498 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
10499 [Steve Henson]
10500
10501 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
10502 [Richard Levitte]
10503
10504 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
10505 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
10506 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
10507
10508 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
10509 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
10510 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
10511 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
10512 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
10513 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
10514 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
10515 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
10516
10517 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
10518 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
10519
10520 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
10521
10522 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
10523 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
10524 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
10525
10526 [Richard Levitte]
10527
10528 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
10529 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
10530 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
10531 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
10532 [Richard Levitte]
10533
10534 *) MD4 implemented.
10535 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
10536
10537 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
10538 [Richard Levitte]
10539
10540 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
10541 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
10542 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
10543 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
10544 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
10545 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
10546 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
10547 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
10548 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
10549 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
10550 short or long names are found.
10551 [Steve Henson]
10552
10553 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
10554 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
10555
10556 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
10557 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
10558 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
10559 version rollback attacks was not effective.
10560
10561 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
10562 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
10563 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
10564 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
10565 [Bodo Moeller]
10566
10567 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
10568 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
10569 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
10570 [Richard Levitte]
10571
10572 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
10573 these print out strings and name structures based on various
10574 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
10575 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
10576 to allow the various flags to be set.
10577 [Steve Henson]
10578
10579 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
10580 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
10581 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
10582 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
10583 dates to be checked.
10584 [Steve Henson]
10585
10586 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
10587 negative public key encodings) on by default,
10588 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
10589 [Steve Henson]
10590
10591 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
10592 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
10593 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
10594 [Steve Henson]
10595
10596 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
10597 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
10598 [Bodo Moeller]
10599
10600 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
10601 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
10602 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
10603 are always statically linked for now, but there are
10604 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
10605 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
10606 [Richard Levitte]
10607
10608 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
10609 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
10610 Random Numbers.
10611 [Ulf Möller]
10612
10613 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
10614 DSA key.
10615 [Steve Henson]
10616
10617 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
10618 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
10619 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
10620 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
10621 form signing output easier to verify.
10622 [Steve Henson]
10623
10624 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
10625 [Steve Henson]
10626
10627 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
10628 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
10629 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
10630 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
10631 are needed because all other string types have virtually
10632 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
10633 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
10634 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
10635 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
10636 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
10637 [Steve Henson]
10638
10639 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
10640
10641 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
10642 the syntax given in objects.README.
10643 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
10644 obj_mac.h.
10645 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
10646 obj_mac.h.
10647
10648 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
10649 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
10650 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
10651 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
10652 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
10653 consistent name changes.
10654 [Richard Levitte]
10655
10656 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
10657 [Bodo Moeller]
10658
10659 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10660 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10661 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10662 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10663 [Richard Levitte]
10664
10665 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10666 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10667 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10668 of safestack.h .
10669 [Steve Henson]
10670
10671 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10672 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10673 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10674 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10675 [Steve Henson]
10676
10677 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10678 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10679 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10680 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10681 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10682 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10683 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10684 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10685 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10686 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10687 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10688 [Steve Henson]
10689
10690 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10691 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10692 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10693 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10694 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10695 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10696 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10697 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10698 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10699 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10700 [Steve Henson]
10701
10702 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10703 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10704 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10705 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10706
10707 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10708 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10709 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10710 omit any duplicate addresses.
10711 [Steve Henson]
10712
10713 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10714 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10715 [Bodo Moeller]
10716
10717 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10718 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10719 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10720 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10721 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10722 [Bodo Moeller]
10723
10724 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10725 software:
10726 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10727 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10728 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10729 Free => OPENSSL_free
10730 [Richard Levitte]
10731
10732 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10733 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10734 [Bodo Moeller]
10735
10736 *) CygWin32 support.
10737 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10738
10739 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10740 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10741 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10742 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10743 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10744 approach.
10745 [Geoff Thorpe]
10746
10747 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10748 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10749 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10750 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10751 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10752 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10753 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10754 [Geoff Thorpe]
10755
10756 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10757 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10758 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10759 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10760 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10761 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10762 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10763 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10764 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10765 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10766 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10767 [Bodo Moeller]
10768
10769 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10770 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10771 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10772 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10773 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10774
10775 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10776 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10777 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10778 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10779 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10780
10781 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10782 ciphers.
10783
10784 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10785 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10786 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10787 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10788
10789 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10790
10791 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10792 of macros.
10793
10794 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10795 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10796 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10797 flags.
10798
10799 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10800 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10801 any installed hardware versions can.
10802 [Steve Henson]
10803
10804 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10805 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10806 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10807 number.
10808 [Bodo Moeller]
10809
10810 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10811 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10812 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10813 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10814 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10815
10816 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10817 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10818 [Steve Henson]
10819
10820 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10821 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10822 [Richard Levitte]
10823
10824 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10825 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10826 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10827 features.
10828 [Steve Henson]
10829
10830 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10831 [Ulf Möller]
10832
10833 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10834 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10835 but no ssl client purpose.
10836 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10837
10838 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10839 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10840 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10841 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10842 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10843 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10844 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10845 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10846 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10847 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10848 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10849 [Steve Henson]
10850
10851 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10852 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10853 be obtained from the error queue.
10854 [Bodo Moeller]
10855
10856 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10857 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10858 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10859 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10860 [Bodo Moeller]
10861
10862 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10863 [Ulf Möller]
10864
10865 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10866 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10867 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10868 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10869 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10870 [Geoff Thorpe]
10871
10872 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10873 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10874 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10875 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10876 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10877 [Geoff Thorpe]
10878
10879 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10880 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10881 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10882 may not be NULL.
10883 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10884
10885 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10886 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10887 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10888 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10889 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10890 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10891 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10892 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10893 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10894 or "the configuration storage API"...
10895
10896 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10897
10898 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10899 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10900
10901 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10902
10903 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10904
10905 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10906 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10907 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10908 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10909 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10910 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
10911 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10912
10913 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10914 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10915 [Richard Levitte]
10916
10917 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10918 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10919 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10920 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10921 [Bodo Moeller]
10922
10923 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10924 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10925 them in a portable way.
10926 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10927
10928 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10929
10930 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10931
10932 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10933 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10934
10935 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10936 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10937 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10938 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10939
10940 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10941 was larger than the MD block size.
10942 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10943
10944 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10945 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10946 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10947 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
10948 components.
10949 [Steve Henson]
10950
10951 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
10952 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
10953 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
10954
10955 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
10956 discouraged.
10957 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
10958
10959 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
10960 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
10961 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
10962 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
10963 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
10964 Additional arguments are always ignored.
10965
10966 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
10967 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
10968
10969 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
10970 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
10971 [Bodo Moeller]
10972
10973 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
10974 [Bodo Moeller]
10975
10976 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
10977 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
10978 its own key.
10979 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
10980 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
10981 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
10982 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
10983 [Bodo Moeller]
10984
10985 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
10986 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
10987 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
10988 does not suppress any output.
10989 [Richard Levitte]
10990
10991 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
10992 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
10993 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
10994 with all the associated security issues.
10995
10996 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
10997 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
10998 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
10999 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
11000 use the value in the default purpose.
11001 [Steve Henson]
11002
11003 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
11004 and fix a memory leak.
11005 [Steve Henson]
11006
11007 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
11008 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
11009 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
11010 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
11011 [Bodo Moeller]
11012
11013 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
11014 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
11015 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
11016 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
11017 [Bodo Moeller]
11018
11019 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
11020 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
11021 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
11022 [Bodo Moeller]
11023
11024 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
11025 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
11026 [Bodo Moeller]
11027
11028 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
11029 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
11030 which was free.
11031 [Steve Henson]
11032
11033 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
11034 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
11035 [Bodo Moeller]
11036
11037 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
11038 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
11039 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
11040 [Bodo Moeller]
11041
11042 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
11043 number generation fails.
11044 [Bodo Moeller]
11045
11046 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
11047 [Bodo Moeller]
11048
11049 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
11050 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
11051
11052 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
11053 [Ulf Möller]
11054
11055 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
11056 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
11057
11058 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
11059 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
11060
11061 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
11062
11063 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
11064 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
11065 [Steve Henson]
11066
11067 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
11068 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
11069
11070 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
11071 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
11072 [Ulf Möller]
11073
11074 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
11075 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
11076 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
11077 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
11078 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
11079 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
11080
11081 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
11082 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
11083 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
11084 for example.
11085 [Steve Henson]
11086
11087 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
11088 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
11089 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
11090 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
11091 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
11092 counter, some don't.)
11093 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
11094 counters or duplicate objects.
11095 [Steve Henson]
11096
11097 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
11098 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
11099 [Steve Henson]
11100
11101 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
11102 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
11103 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
11104
11105 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
11106 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
11107 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
11108 or -rand.
11109 [Ulf Möller]
11110
11111 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
11112 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
11113 [Steve Henson]
11114
11115 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
11116 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
11117 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
11118 cipher list.
11119 [Steve Henson]
11120
11121 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
11122 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
11123 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
11124 [Steve Henson]
11125
11126 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
11127 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
11128 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
11129 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
11130 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
11131 should work without changes.
11132 [Richard Levitte]
11133
11134 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
11135 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
11136 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
11137 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
11138 must be defined. E.g.,
11139 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
11140 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
11141 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
11142 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
11143
11144 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
11145 record layer.
11146 [Bodo Moeller]
11147
11148 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
11149 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
11150 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
11151 [Steve Henson]
11152
11153 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
11154 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
11155 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
11156 request header lines. Some software needs this.
11157 [Steve Henson]
11158
11159 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
11160 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
11161 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
11162 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
11163 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
11164 is prompted for as usual.
11165 [Steve Henson]
11166
11167 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
11168 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
11169 autodetect the card and use it if present.
11170 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
11171
11172 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
11173 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
11174 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
11175 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
11176 [Steve Henson]
11177
11178 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
11179 [Andy Polyakov]
11180
11181 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
11182 of seed file.
11183 [Steve Henson]
11184
11185 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
11186 [Bodo Moeller]
11187
11188 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
11189 [Steve Henson]
11190
11191 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
11192 bits.
11193 [Ulf Möller]
11194
11195 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
11196 [Ulf Möller]
11197
11198 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
11199 [Andy Polyakov]
11200
11201 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
11202 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
11203 [Ulf Möller]
11204
11205 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
11206 options to produce them.
11207 [Steve Henson]
11208
11209 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
11210 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
11211 [Ulf Möller]
11212
11213 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
11214 for p == 0.
11215 [Ulf Möller]
11216
11217 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
11218 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
11219 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
11220 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
11221 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
11222 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
11223 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
11224 [Steve Henson]
11225
11226 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
11227 [Steve Henson]
11228
11229 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
11230 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
11231 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
11232 [Bodo Moeller]
11233
11234 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
11235 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
11236
11237 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
11238 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
11239 [Ulf Möller]
11240
11241 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
11242 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
11243 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
11244 has already seen).
11245 [Bodo Moeller]
11246
11247 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
11248 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
11249
11250 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
11251 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
11252 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
11253 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
11254 generation becomes much faster.
11255
11256 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
11257 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
11258 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
11259 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
11260 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
11261 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
11262 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
11263 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
11264 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
11265 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
11266 [Bodo Moeller]
11267
11268 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
11269 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
11270 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
11271 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
11272 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
11273 trial division stage.
11274 [Bodo Moeller]
11275
11276 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
11277 as ASN1_TIME.
11278 [Steve Henson]
11279
11280 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
11281 [Steve Henson]
11282
11283 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
11284 [Ulf Möller]
11285
11286 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
11287 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
11288 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
11289 the comments.
11290 [Ulf Möller]
11291
11292 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
11293 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
11294 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
11295 [Bodo Moeller]
11296
11297 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
11298 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
11299 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
11300 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
11301
11302 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
11303 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
11304 [Steve Henson]
11305
11306 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
11307 [Ulf Möller]
11308
11309 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
11310 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
11311 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
11312 Rabin-Miller iterations.
11313 [Ulf Möller]
11314
11315 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
11316 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
11317 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
11318 [Ulf Möller]
11319
11320 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
11321 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
11322 (instead of parameters) in future.
11323 [Steve Henson]
11324
11325 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
11326 when a new cipher list is set.
11327 [Steve Henson]
11328
11329 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
11330 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
11331 wrong.
11332
11333 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
11334 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
11335 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
11336
11337 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
11338 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
11339 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
11340 an error is flagged.
11341
11342 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
11343 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
11344 the readability was also increased :-)
11345 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
11346
11347 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
11348 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
11349 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
11350 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
11351 as the root CA.
11352 [Steve Henson]
11353
11354 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
11355 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
11356 [Steve Henson]
11357
11358 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
11359 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
11360 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
11361 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
11362 instead.
11363
11364 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
11365 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
11366 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
11367 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
11368 because they handle more complex structures.)
11369 [Steve Henson]
11370
11371 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
11372 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
11373 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
11374 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
11375
11376 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
11377 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
11378 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
11379 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
11380 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
11381 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
11382 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
11383 [Ulf Möller]
11384
11385 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
11386 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
11387 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
11388 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
11389 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
11390 [Bodo Moeller]
11391
11392 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
11393 [Bodo Moeller]
11394
11395 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
11396 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
11397 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
11398 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
11399 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
11400 to use this.
11401
11402 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
11403 code.
11404 [Steve Henson]
11405
11406 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
11407 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
11408 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
11409 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
11410 [Steve Henson]
11411
11412 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
11413 [Ulf Möller]
11414
11415 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
11416 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
11417 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
11418 international characters are used.
11419
11420 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
11421 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
11422 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
11423 in ASN1 order.
11424 [Steve Henson]
11425
11426 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
11427 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
11428 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
11429 request.
11430
11431 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
11432 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
11433 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
11434 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
11435 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
11436 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
11437
11438 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
11439 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
11440 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
11441 be handled by the string table functions.
11442
11443 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
11444 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
11445 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
11446 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
11447 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
11448 types at all.
11449 [Steve Henson]
11450
11451 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
11452 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
11453 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
11454 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
11455 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
11456
11457 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
11458 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
11459 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
11460 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
11461 [Bodo Moeller]
11462
11463 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
11464 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
11465 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
11466 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
11467 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
11468 SHA1.
11469 [Andy Polyakov]
11470
11471 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
11472 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
11473 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
11474 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
11475 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
11476 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
11477 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
11478 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
11479
11480 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
11481 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
11482 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
11483 [Steve Henson]
11484
11485 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
11486 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
11487 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
11488 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
11489 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
11490 support to pkcs8 application.
11491 [Steve Henson]
11492
11493 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
11494 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
11495 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
11496 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
11497 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
11498 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
11499 [Bodo Moeller]
11500
11501 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
11502 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
11503 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
11504 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
11505 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
11506 consistency.
11507 [Bodo Moeller]
11508
11509 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
11510 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
11511 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
11512 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
11513 example.
11514 [Steve Henson]
11515
11516 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
11517 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
11518 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
11519 and any application specific purposes.
11520
11521 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
11522 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
11523 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
11524 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
11525 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
11526 if the certificate is self signed.
11527 [Steve Henson]
11528
11529 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
11530 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
11531 [Steve Henson]
11532
11533 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
11534 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
11535 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
11536 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
11537 [Steve Henson]
11538
11539 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
11540 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
11541 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
11542 Update documentation.
11543 [Steve Henson]
11544
11545 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
11546 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
11547 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
11548 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
11549 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
11550 [Steve Henson]
11551
11552 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
11553 for details.
11554 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
11555
11556 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
11557 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
11558 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
11559 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
11560 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
11561 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
11562 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
11563 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
11564 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
11565 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
11566
11567 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
11568
11569 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11570 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11571 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
11572 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
11573 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
11574
11575 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
11576 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
11577 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
11578 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
11579 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
11580 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
11581 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
11582 request additional information:
11583 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
11584 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
11585
11586 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
11587 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
11588 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
11589 options.
11590
11591 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
11592 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
11593
11594 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
11595 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
11596 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
11597
11598 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
11599 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
11600
11601 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
11602 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
11603 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
11604 algorithm.
11605 [Steve Henson]
11606
11607 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
11608 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
11609 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
11610
11611 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
11612 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
11613 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
11614 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
11615 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
11616 included in OpenSSL.
11617 [Steve Henson]
11618
11619 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
11620 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
11621 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
11622 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
11623 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
11624 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
11625 [Bodo Moeller]
11626
11627 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
11628 PKCS12 structure.
11629 [Steve Henson]
11630
11631 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
11632 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
11633 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
11634 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
11635 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
11636 structure.
11637 [Steve Henson]
11638
11639 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
11640 need initialising.
11641 [Steve Henson]
11642
11643 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
11644 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
11645 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
11646 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
11647 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
11648 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
11649 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
11650 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
11651 be maintained manually.
11652
11653 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
11654 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
11655 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
11656 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
11657 work because people forget to call this function]
11658 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11659 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11660 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11661 [Steve Henson]
11662
11663 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11664 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11665 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11666 should be discouraged from doing it.
11667 [Ben Laurie]
11668
11669 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11670 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11671 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11672 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11673 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11674 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11675 [Steve Henson]
11676
11677 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11678 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11679 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11680
11681 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11682 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11683 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11684
11685 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11686 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11687 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11688 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11689 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11690 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11691
11692 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11693 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11694 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11695
11696 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11697 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11698 and vice versa.
11699
11700 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11701 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11702 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11703 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11704 [Steve Henson]
11705
11706 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11707 [Steve Henson]
11708
11709 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11710 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11711 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11712 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11713 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11714 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11715 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11716 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11717 keys so we should be OK.
11718
11719 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11720 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11721 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11722 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11723 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11724 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11725 stay in the name of compatibility.
11726
11727 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11728 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11729 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11730
11731 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11732 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11733 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11734 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11735 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11736 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11737 supplied key).
11738 [Steve Henson]
11739
11740 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11741 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11742 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11743 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11744 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11745 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11746 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11747 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11748 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11749 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11750 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11751 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11752 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11753 [Steve Henson]
11754
11755 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11756 [Steve Henson]
11757
11758 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11759 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11760 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11761 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11762 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11763 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11764 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11765 openssl verify ss.pem
11766 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11767 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11768 is OK.
11769 [Steve Henson]
11770
11771 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11772 (and add it to external session representation).
11773 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11774 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11775 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11776 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11777 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11778 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11779 security holes.
11780 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11781
11782 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11783 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11784 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11785 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11786
11787 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11788 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11789 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11790 [Steve Henson]
11791
11792 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11793 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11794 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11795 code.
11796 [Steve Henson]
11797
11798 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11799 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11800 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11801
11802 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11803 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11804 certificate auxiliary information.
11805 [Steve Henson]
11806
11807 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11808 the 'enc' command.
11809 [Steve Henson]
11810
11811 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11812 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11813 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11814 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11815 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11816 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11817 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11818 [Richard Levitte]
11819
11820 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11821 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11822 [Steve Henson]
11823
11824 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11825 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11826 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11827 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11828 [Steve Henson]
11829
11830 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11831 [Steve Henson]
11832
11833 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11834 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11835 [Steve Henson]
11836
11837 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11838 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11839 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11840 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11841 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11842 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11843 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11844 using the new 'x509' options.
11845
11846 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11847 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11848 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11849 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11850 for all purposes.
11851 [Steve Henson]
11852
11853 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11854 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11855 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11856 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11857 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11858 [Mark Cox]
11859
11860 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11861 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11862 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11863 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11864 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11865 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11866 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11867 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11868 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11869 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11870 [Steve Henson]
11871
11872 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11873 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11874 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11875 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11876 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11877 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11878 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11879 [Steve Henson]
11880
11881 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11882 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11883 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11884 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11885 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11886 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11887 openssl.cnf for more info.
11888 [Steve Henson]
11889
11890 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11891 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11892 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11893 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11894 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11895 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11896 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11897 md should be large enough anyway.
11898 [Bodo Moeller]
11899
11900 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11901 for handling the random seed file.
11902
11903 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11904 ca,
11905 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11906 s_client,
11907 s_server,
11908 x509 (when signing).
11909 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11910 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11911 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11912
11913 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11914 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11915 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11916 that support '-rand'.
11917 [Bodo Moeller]
11918
11919 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11920 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11921 [Bodo Moeller]
11922
11923 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11924 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11925 [Bill Perry]
11926
11927 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11928 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11929 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11930 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11931 is suitable.
11932 [Steve Henson]
11933
11934 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11935 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11936 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11937 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11938 [Steve Henson]
11939
11940 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11941 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11942 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11943 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11944 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11945 print out all the purposes.
11946 [Steve Henson]
11947
11948 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
11949 functions.
11950 [Steve Henson]
11951
11952 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
11953 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
11954 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
11955 single function call.
11956 [Steve Henson]
11957
11958 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
11959 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
11960 [Andy Polyakov]
11961
11962 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
11963 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
11964 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
11965 [Steve Henson]
11966
11967 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
11968 when producing the local key id.
11969 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11970
11971 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
11972 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
11973 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
11974 "server.pem".
11975 [Steve Henson]
11976
11977 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
11978 a public key to be input or output. For example:
11979 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
11980 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
11981 [Steve Henson]
11982
11983 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
11984 in the message. This was handled by allowing
11985 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
11986 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
11987
11988 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
11989 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
11990 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
11991 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11992
11993 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
11994 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
11995 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
11996 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
11997 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
11998 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
11999 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
12000 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
12001 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
12002 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
12003 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
12004 trivial: move one line.
12005 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
12006
12007 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
12008 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
12009 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
12010 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
12011 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
12012 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
12013 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
12014 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
12015 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
12016 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
12017 with an event loop for example.
12018 [Steve Henson]
12019
12020 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
12021 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
12022 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
12023 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
12024 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
12025 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
12026 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
12027 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
12028 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
12029 [Steve Henson]
12030
12031 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
12032 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
12033 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
12034 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
12035 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
12036 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
12037 [Steve Henson]
12038
12039 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
12040 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
12041 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
12042 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
12043
12044 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
12045 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
12046 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
12047 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
12048 key generation.
12049 [Steve Henson]
12050
12051 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
12052 (still largely untested)
12053 [Bodo Moeller]
12054
12055 *) New function ASN1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
12056 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
12057 [Steve Henson]
12058
12059 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
12060 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
12061 [Steve Henson]
12062
12063 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
12064 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
12065 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
12066 [Bodo Moeller]
12067
12068 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
12069 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
12070 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
12071 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
12072 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
12073 [Steve Henson]
12074
12075 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
12076 [Andy Polyakov]
12077
12078 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
12079 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
12080 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
12081 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
12082 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
12083 in ca.
12084 [Steve Henson]
12085
12086 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
12087 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
12088 1.OU="Unit name 1"
12089 2.OU="Unit name 2"
12090 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
12091 [Steve Henson]
12092
12093 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
12094 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
12095 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
12096 are otherwise ignored at present.
12097 [Steve Henson]
12098
12099 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
12100 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
12101 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
12102 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
12103 copied until the next read.
12104 [Steve Henson]
12105
12106 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
12107 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
12108 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
12109 [Steve Henson]
12110
12111 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
12112 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
12113 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
12114 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
12115 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
12116 associated functions.
12117 [Steve Henson]
12118
12119 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
12120 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
12121 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
12122 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
12123 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
12124 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
12125 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
12126 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
12127 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
12128 memory BIOs.
12129 [Steve Henson]
12130
12131 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
12132 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
12133 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
12134 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
12135 [Bodo Moeller]
12136
12137 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
12138 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
12139 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
12140 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
12141 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
12142 functionality.
12143 [Steve Henson]
12144
12145 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
12146 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
12147 under Win32.
12148 [Steve Henson]
12149
12150 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
12151 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
12152 extensions to be obtained and added.
12153 [Steve Henson]
12154
12155 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
12156 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
12157 [Bodo Moeller]
12158
12159 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
12160
12161 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12162 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12163
12164 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
12165 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
12166
12167 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
12168 program.
12169 [Steve Henson]
12170
12171 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
12172 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
12173 DH parameters contain its length).
12174
12175 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
12176 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
12177 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
12178 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
12179 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
12180 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
12181 utter importance to use
12182 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
12183 or
12184 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
12185 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
12186 attacks may become possible!
12187 [Bodo Moeller]
12188
12189 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
12190 [Bodo Moeller]
12191
12192 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
12193 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
12194 [Steve Henson]
12195
12196 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
12197 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
12198 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
12199 or long name.
12200 [Steve Henson]
12201
12202 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
12203 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
12204 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
12205 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
12206 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
12207 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
12208 private key operations.
12209 [Steve Henson]
12210
12211 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
12212 [Andy Polyakov]
12213
12214 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
12215 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
12216 to
12217 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
12218 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
12219 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
12220 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
12221 the password callback is called.
12222 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
12223
12224 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
12225
12226 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
12227 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
12228 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
12229 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
12230 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
12231 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
12232 this will work.
12233
12234 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
12235 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
12236 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
12237 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
12238 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
12239 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
12240 [Bodo Moeller]
12241
12242 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
12243 [Andy Polyakov]
12244
12245 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
12246 delete an unused file.
12247 [Ulf Möller]
12248
12249 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
12250 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
12251 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
12252 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
12253 [Steve Henson]
12254
12255 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
12256 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
12257 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
12258 of an error.
12259 [Bodo Moeller]
12260
12261 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
12262 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
12263 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
12264
12265 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
12266 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
12267 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
12268 comparison" warnings.
12269 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
12270 [Steve Henson]
12271
12272 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
12273 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
12274 derived keys are printed to stderr.
12275 [Steve Henson]
12276
12277 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
12278 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
12279
12280 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
12281 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
12282
12283 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
12284 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
12285 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
12286
12287 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
12288 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
12289 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
12290 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
12291 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
12292 this bug.
12293 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
12294
12295 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
12296 The interface is as follows:
12297 Applications can use
12298 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
12299 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
12300 "off" is now the default.
12301 The library internally uses
12302 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
12303 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
12304 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
12305
12306 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
12307 even the default) are now avoided.
12308
12309 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
12310 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
12311 than just having a counter.
12312
12313 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
12314
12315 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
12316 extensions.
12317 [Bodo Moeller]
12318
12319 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
12320 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
12321 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
12322 Initial "mode" flags are:
12323
12324 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
12325 a single record has been written.
12326 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
12327 retries use the same buffer location.
12328 (But all of the contents must be
12329 copied!)
12330 [Bodo Moeller]
12331
12332 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
12333 worked.
12334
12335 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
12336 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
12337
12338 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
12339 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
12340 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
12341 [Steve Henson]
12342
12343 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
12344 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
12345 test programs.
12346 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
12347
12348 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
12349 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
12350 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
12351 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
12352 point to the end.
12353 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
12354 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
12355
12356 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
12357 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
12358 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
12359 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
12360 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
12361 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
12362 [Steve Henson]
12363
12364 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
12365 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
12366 necessary function names.
12367 [Steve Henson]
12368
12369 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
12370 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
12371 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
12372 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
12373 [Bodo Moeller]
12374
12375 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
12376 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
12377 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
12378 [Steve Henson]
12379
12380 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
12381 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
12382 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
12383 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
12384 such programs?)
12385 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
12386 need locks.
12387 [Bodo Moeller]
12388
12389 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
12390 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
12391 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
12392 [Bodo Moeller]
12393
12394 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
12395 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
12396 appropriate.
12397 [Bodo Moeller]
12398
12399 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
12400 for the encoded length.
12401 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
12402
12403 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
12404 [Steve Henson]
12405
12406 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
12407 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
12408 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
12409 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
12410 [Steve Henson]
12411
12412 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
12413 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
12414 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12415
12416 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
12417 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
12418 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
12419 unusual formatting.
12420 [Steve Henson]
12421
12422 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
12423 to use the new extension code.
12424 [Steve Henson]
12425
12426 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
12427 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
12428 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
12429 constant.
12430 [Steve Henson]
12431
12432 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
12433 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
12434 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
12435 [Bodo Moeller]
12436
12437 #if 0
12438 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
12439 [Ben Laurie]
12440 #else
12441 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
12442 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
12443 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
12444 #endif
12445
12446 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
12447 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
12448 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
12449 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
12450 [Ben Laurie]
12451
12452 *) DES library cleanups.
12453 [Ulf Möller]
12454
12455 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
12456 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
12457 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
12458 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
12459 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
12460 of v2.0.
12461 [Steve Henson]
12462
12463 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
12464 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
12465 [Bodo Moeller]
12466
12467 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
12468 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
12469 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
12470 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
12471 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
12472 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
12473 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
12474 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
12475 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
12476 [Steve Henson]
12477
12478 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
12479 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
12480 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
12481 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
12482 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
12483 value doesn't matter.
12484 [Steve Henson]
12485
12486 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
12487 support mutable.
12488 [Ben Laurie]
12489
12490 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
12491 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
12492 "linux-sparc" configuration.
12493 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
12494
12495 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
12496 [Ulf Möller]
12497
12498 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
12499 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
12500 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12501
12502 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
12503 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12504
12505 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
12506 [Ben Laurie]
12507
12508 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
12509 [Ben Laurie]
12510
12511 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
12512 [Ben Laurie]
12513
12514 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
12515 [Bodo Moeller]
12516
12517
12518 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
12519
12520 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
12521
12522 *) Updated some demos.
12523 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
12524
12525 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
12526 [Wu Zhigang]
12527
12528 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
12529 [Steve Henson]
12530
12531 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
12532 [Steve Henson]
12533
12534 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
12535 instead of using a fixed path.
12536 [Bodo Moeller]
12537
12538 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
12539 [Andy Polyakov]
12540
12541 *) Improvements for VMS support.
12542 [Richard Levitte]
12543
12544
12545 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
12546
12547 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
12548 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
12549 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12550
12551 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
12552 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
12553 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
12554 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
12555 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
12556 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
12557 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
12558 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
12559 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
12560 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
12561 [Steve Henson]
12562
12563 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
12564 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
12565 [Steve Henson]
12566
12567 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
12568 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
12569 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
12570 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
12571 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
12572
12573 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
12574 [Bodo Moeller]
12575
12576 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
12577 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
12578 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
12579 [Steve Henson]
12580
12581 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
12582 [Ben Laurie]
12583
12584 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
12585 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
12586 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
12587 key elements as negative integers.
12588 [Steve Henson]
12589
12590 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
12591 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12592
12593 *) VMS support.
12594 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
12595
12596 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
12597 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
12598 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
12599 [Steve Henson]
12600
12601 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
12602 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
12603 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
12604 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
12605 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
12606 [Bodo Moeller]
12607
12608 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
12609 [Ulf Möller]
12610
12611 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
12612 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
12613 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
12614 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12615
12616 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
12617 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
12618 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
12619
12620 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
12621 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
12622 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
12623 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
12624 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
12625 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
12626 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
12627 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
12628 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
12629
12630 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
12631 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
12632 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
12633 does not influence s as it used to.
12634
12635 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
12636 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
12637 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
12638 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
12639 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
12640 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
12641 [Bodo Moeller]
12642
12643 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
12644 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
12645 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
12646 key type.
12647 [Steve Henson]
12648
12649 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
12650 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
12651 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
12652 and 'x509').
12653 [Steve Henson]
12654
12655 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
12656 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
12657 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12658 extension option.
12659 [Steve Henson]
12660
12661 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12662 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12663 [Ben Laurie]
12664
12665 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12666 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12667
12668 *) Support Mingw32.
12669 [Ulf Möller]
12670
12671 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12672 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12673
12674 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12675 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12676
12677 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12678 [Ulf Möller]
12679
12680 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12681 [Anonymous]
12682
12683 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12684 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12685
12686 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12687 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12688 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12689 DER-encoded.)
12690 [Bodo Moeller]
12691
12692 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12693 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12694 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12695 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12696 now it really counts the depth.
12697 [Bodo Moeller]
12698
12699 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12700 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12701 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12702 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12703 didn't match the private key).
12704
12705 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12706 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12707 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12708 [Bodo Moeller]
12709
12710 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12711 [Ulf Möller]
12712
12713 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12714 David Harris.
12715 [Bodo Moeller]
12716
12717 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12718 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12719 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12720 [Bodo Moeller]
12721
12722 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12723 [Bodo Moeller]
12724
12725 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12726 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12727 such as /usr/local/bin.
12728 [Bodo Moeller]
12729
12730 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12731 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12732
12733 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12734 [Ulf Möller]
12735
12736 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12737 extension adding in x509 utility.
12738 [Steve Henson]
12739
12740 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12741 [Ulf Möller]
12742
12743 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12744 prototypes.
12745 [Steve Henson]
12746
12747 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12748 [Ulf Möller]
12749
12750 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12751 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12752 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12753 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12754 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12755 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12756 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
12757 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12758 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12759 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12760 [Steve Henson]
12761
12762 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12763 [Bodo Moeller]
12764
12765 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12766 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12767 [Bodo Moeller]
12768
12769 *) Fix some race conditions.
12770 [Bodo Moeller]
12771
12772 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12773 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12774 [Steve Henson]
12775
12776 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12777 [Ulf Möller]
12778
12779 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12780 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12781 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12782 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12783
12784 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12785 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12786
12787 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12788 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12789 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12790
12791 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12792 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12793
12794 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12795 [Ulf Möller]
12796
12797 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12798 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12799
12800 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12801 [Ulf Möller]
12802
12803 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12804 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12805
12806 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12807 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12808 [Steve Henson]
12809
12810 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12811 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12812 [Ben Laurie]
12813
12814 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12815 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12816 [Steve Henson]
12817
12818 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12819 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12820 [Steve Henson]
12821
12822 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12823 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12824 [Steve Henson]
12825
12826 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12827 support typesafe stack.
12828 [Steve Henson]
12829
12830 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12831 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12832
12833 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12834 old X509V3 handling code.
12835 [Steve Henson]
12836
12837 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12838 [Ulf Möller]
12839
12840 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12841 [Bodo Moeller]
12842
12843 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12844 [Ben Laurie]
12845
12846 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12847 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12848
12849 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12850 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12851 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12852 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12853 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12854 [Ben Laurie]
12855
12856 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12857 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12858 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12859 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12860 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12861
12862 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12863 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12864 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12865 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12866
12867 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12868 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12869 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12870 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12871
12872 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12873 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12874 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12875 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12876 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12877 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12878 [Bodo Moeller]
12879
12880 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12881 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12882 [Bodo Moeller]
12883
12884 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12885 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12886 [Ulf Möller]
12887
12888 *) Tweaks to Configure
12889 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12890
12891 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12892 yet...
12893 [Steve Henson]
12894
12895 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12896 [Ulf Möller]
12897
12898 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12899 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12900 [Ulf Möller]
12901
12902 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12903 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12904 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12905 [Bodo Moeller]
12906
12907 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12908 [Bodo Moeller]
12909
12910 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12911 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12912 [Steve Henson]
12913
12914 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12915 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12916 to library startup routines.
12917 [Steve Henson]
12918
12919 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12920 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12921 codes along the way.
12922 [Steve Henson]
12923
12924 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12925 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12926 objects to objects.h
12927 [Steve Henson]
12928
12929 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12930 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12931 [Steve Henson]
12932
12933 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12934 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12935
12936 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12937 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12938 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12939
12940 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12941 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12942 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12943
12944 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12945 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12946 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12947
12948
12949 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
12950
12951 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
12952 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
12953 [Ben Laurie]
12954
12955 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
12956 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
12957 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
12958 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
12959 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
12960
12961 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
12962 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
12963 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
12964 document.
12965 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12966
12967 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
12968 Malloc, Free.
12969 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
12970
12971 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
12972 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12973
12974 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
12975 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
12976 if someone would make that last step automatic.
12977 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
12978
12979 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
12980 [Ben Laurie]
12981
12982 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
12983 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
12984 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
12985 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
12986 [Steve Henson]
12987
12988 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
12989 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
12990 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
12991 [Steve Henson]
12992
12993 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
12994 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
12995 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
12996 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
12997 installed as `perl').
12998 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12999
13000 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
13001 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
13002
13003 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
13004 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
13005 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
13006 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
13007 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
13008 [Steve Henson]
13009
13010 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
13011 [Ben Laurie]
13012
13013 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
13014 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
13015 is horrible: I feel ill....
13016 [Steve Henson]
13017
13018 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
13019 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
13020 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
13021 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
13022 [Steve Henson]
13023
13024 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
13025 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13026
13027 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
13028 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
13029 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
13030 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13031
13032 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
13033 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
13034 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
13035 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
13036 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
13037 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
13038 openssl_bio.xs.
13039 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13040
13041 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
13042 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
13043
13044 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
13045 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
13046
13047 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
13048 [Ben Laurie]
13049
13050 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
13051 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
13052 in CRLs.
13053 [Steve Henson]
13054
13055 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
13056 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
13057 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
13058 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
13059 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
13060 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
13061 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
13062 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
13063 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
13064 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
13065 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13066
13067 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
13068 [Ben Laurie]
13069
13070 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
13071 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
13072 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
13073 for linking it into DSOs.
13074 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13075
13076 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
13077 Fixed.
13078 [Ben Laurie]
13079
13080 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
13081 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
13082 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
13083 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
13084 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
13085 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13086
13087 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
13088 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
13089 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
13090 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
13091 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
13092 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
13093 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13094
13095 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
13096 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
13097 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
13098 encryption.
13099 [Ben Laurie]
13100
13101 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
13102 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
13103 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
13104 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
13105 [Steve Henson]
13106
13107 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
13108 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
13109 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
13110 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
13111 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
13112 field as blank.
13113 [Steve Henson]
13114
13115 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
13116 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
13117 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
13118 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
13119 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13120
13121 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
13122 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
13123 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
13124
13125 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
13126 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
13127
13128 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
13129 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
13130 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
13131 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
13132 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
13133 [Steve Henson]
13134
13135 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
13136 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
13137 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
13138 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
13139 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
13140 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
13141 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
13142 [Ben Laurie]
13143
13144 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
13145 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
13146 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
13147 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
13148 [Ben Laurie]
13149
13150 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
13151 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
13152
13153 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
13154 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
13155 [Steve Henson]
13156
13157 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
13158 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
13159 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
13160 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
13161 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
13162 (e.g. s_server).
13163 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
13164 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
13165 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
13166 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
13167 no way to reconfigure them.
13168 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
13169 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
13170 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
13171 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
13172 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
13173 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13174
13175 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
13176 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
13177 recognized by the users.
13178 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13179
13180 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
13181 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
13182 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
13183 already masked variable.
13184 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
13185
13186 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
13187 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
13188
13189 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
13190 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
13191 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
13192 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
13193
13194 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
13195 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
13196 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13197
13198 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
13199 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
13200 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
13201 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
13202 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
13203 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
13204 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
13205 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
13206 now, too.
13207 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13208
13209 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
13210 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
13211 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13212
13213 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
13214 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
13215 config file.
13216 [Steve Henson]
13217
13218 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
13219 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
13220
13221 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
13222 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
13223 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
13224 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
13225 [Ben Laurie]
13226
13227 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
13228 [Steve Henson]
13229
13230 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
13231 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13232
13233 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
13234 [Ben Laurie]
13235
13236 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
13237 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
13238 [Steve Henson]
13239
13240 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
13241 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
13242 [Steve Henson]
13243
13244 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
13245 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
13246 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
13247 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
13248 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
13249 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
13250 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
13251 Ben Laurie]
13252
13253 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
13254 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13255
13256 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
13257 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
13258 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
13259 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
13260 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13261
13262 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
13263 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
13264 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
13265 [Steve Henson]
13266
13267 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
13268 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
13269 an example.
13270 [Steve Henson]
13271
13272 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
13273 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
13274 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13275
13276 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
13277 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
13278 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
13279 build instructions.
13280 [Steve Henson]
13281
13282 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
13283 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
13284 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
13285 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
13286 [Steve Henson]
13287
13288 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
13289 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
13290 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
13291 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
13292 [Ben Laurie]
13293
13294 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
13295 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
13296 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
13297 so it wasn't spotted.
13298 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
13299
13300 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
13301 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
13302 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
13303 vectors if you have them.
13304 [Ben Laurie]
13305
13306 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
13307 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
13308 [Ben Laurie]
13309
13310 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
13311 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
13312 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
13313 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
13314 If you do a:
13315 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
13316 it will update them.
13317 [Steve Henson]
13318
13319 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
13320 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
13321 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
13322 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
13323 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
13324 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
13325 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
13326 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13327
13328 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
13329 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
13330 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
13331 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
13332 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
13333 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
13334 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
13335 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
13336 the crypto/md/ stuff).
13337 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13338
13339 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
13340 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
13341 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
13342 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
13343 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
13344 [Steve Henson]
13345
13346 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
13347 INTEGER code.
13348 [Steve Henson]
13349
13350 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
13351 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13352
13353 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
13354 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
13355
13356 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
13357 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
13358 [Ben Laurie]
13359
13360 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
13361 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
13362
13363 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
13364 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
13365
13366 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
13367 [Steve Henson]
13368
13369 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
13370 few typos.
13371 [Steve Henson]
13372
13373 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
13374 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
13375 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
13376 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13377
13378 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
13379 [Steve Henson]
13380
13381 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
13382 [Steve Henson]
13383
13384 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
13385 [Steve Henson]
13386
13387 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
13388 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
13389 [Steve Henson]
13390
13391 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
13392 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
13393 CA extensions.
13394 [Steve Henson]
13395
13396 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
13397 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
13398 [Steve Henson]
13399
13400 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
13401 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
13402 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
13403 [Steve Henson]
13404
13405 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
13406 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
13407 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
13408 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
13409 properly to be processed.
13410 [Steve Henson]
13411
13412 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
13413 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
13414 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
13415 [Ben Laurie]
13416
13417 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
13418 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
13419
13420 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
13421 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
13422 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
13423 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
13424 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
13425 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
13426 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
13427 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
13428 or delete all the .err files.
13429 [Steve Henson]
13430
13431 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
13432 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
13433 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
13434 to regenerate it if needed.
13435 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
13436 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
13437
13438 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
13439 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13440
13441 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
13442 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
13443 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
13444 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
13445 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
13446 [Steve Henson]
13447
13448 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
13449 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13450
13451 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
13452 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13453
13454 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
13455 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
13456 error, but didn't set one).
13457 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13458
13459 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
13460 [Ben Laurie]
13461
13462 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
13463 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
13464 [Steve Henson]
13465
13466 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
13467 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
13468
13469 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
13470 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
13471 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
13472 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
13473 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
13474 OID is not part of the table.
13475 [Steve Henson]
13476
13477 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
13478 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
13479 [Ben Laurie]
13480
13481 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
13482 [Ben Laurie]
13483
13484 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
13485 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
13486 was "1234").
13487 [Steve Henson]
13488
13489 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
13490 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
13491
13492 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
13493 NULL pointers.
13494 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13495
13496 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
13497 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13498
13499 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
13500 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13501
13502 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
13503 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13504
13505 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
13506 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
13507 [Ben Laurie]
13508
13509 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
13510 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
13511 [Steve Henson]
13512
13513 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
13514 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13515
13516 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
13517 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13518
13519 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
13520 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13521
13522 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
13523 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13524
13525 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
13526 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
13527 unused in the certificate verification process.
13528 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13529
13530 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
13531 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
13532 [Steve Henson]
13533
13534 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
13535 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
13536 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
13537
13538 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
13539 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
13540 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
13541 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
13542 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
13543
13544 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
13545 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
13546 [Steve Henson]
13547
13548 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
13549 [Steve Henson]
13550
13551 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
13552 [Paul Sutton]
13553
13554 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
13555 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
13556
13557 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
13558 [Ben Laurie]
13559
13560 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
13561 [Ben Laurie]
13562
13563 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
13564 [Ben Laurie]
13565
13566 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
13567 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
13568 other error libraries.
13569 [Steve Henson]
13570
13571 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
13572 [Steve Henson]
13573
13574 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
13575 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
13576 be read in.
13577 [Steve Henson]
13578
13579 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
13580 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
13581 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
13582 the new set of documentation files.
13583 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13584
13585 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
13586 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
13587 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
13588 number of arguments.
13589 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
13590
13591 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
13592 [Ben Laurie]
13593
13594 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
13595 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
13596 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13597
13598 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
13599 [Ben Laurie]
13600
13601 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
13602 nextstep
13603 ncr-scde
13604 unixware-2.0
13605 unixware-2.0-pentium
13606 sco5-cc.
13607 [Ben Laurie]
13608
13609 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
13610 before they are needed.
13611 [Ben Laurie]
13612
13613 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
13614 [Ben Laurie]
13615
13616
13617 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
13618
13619 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
13620 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
13621 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13622
13623 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
13624 [Paul Sutton]
13625
13626 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
13627 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
13628 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13629
13630 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
13631 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
13632 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
13633
13634 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
13635 when "ssleay" is still not found.
13636 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13637
13638 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
13639 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
13640
13641 *) Updated the README file.
13642 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13643
13644 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
13645 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
13646 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13647
13648 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
13649 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
13650 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13651
13652 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
13653 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
13654 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
13655 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
13656 o removed obsolete TODO file
13657 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
13658 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13659
13660 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
13661 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
13662 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
13663 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
13664 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
13665 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
13666 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13667
13668 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
13669 [Mark J. Cox]
13670
13671 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
13672 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
13673 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
13674 summer 1998.
13675 [The OpenSSL Project]
13676
13677
13678 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
13679
13680 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
13681 [Eric A. Young]
13682
13683 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
13684 [Eric A. Young]
13685
13686 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
13687 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
13688 [Eric A. Young]
13689
13690 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
13691 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
13692 available).
13693 [Eric A. Young]
13694
13695 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
13696 binary structures
13697 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
13698
13699 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
13700 [Eric A. Young]
13701
13702 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
13703 [Eric A. Young]
13704
13705 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
13706 [Eric A. Young]
13707
13708 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
