4
5 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
8 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
9 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
10 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
11 [Matt Caswell]
12
13 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
14 using the algorithm defined in
15 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
16 [Richard Levitte]
17
18 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
19 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
20
21 Changes between 1.1.0b and 1.1.0c [xx XXX xxxx]
22
23 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
24
25 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
26 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
27 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.
28
29 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki (Google Security Team)
30 (CVE-2016-7054)
31 [Richard Levitte]
32
33 *) CMS Null dereference
34
35 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
36 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
37 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
38 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
39 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
40 affected.
41
42 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
43 (CVE-2016-7053)
44 [Stephen Henson]
45
46 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
47
48 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
49 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
50 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
51 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
52 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
53 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
54 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
55 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
56 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
57 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
58 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
59 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
60 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
61 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
62
63 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
64 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
65 providing reproducible case.
66 (CVE-2016-7055)
67 [Andy Polyakov]
68
69 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
70 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
71 [Richard Levitte]
72
73 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
74
75 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
76
77 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
78 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
79 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
80 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
81 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
82 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
83
84 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
85
86 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.
87 (CVE-2016-6309)
88 [Matt Caswell]
89
90 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
91
92 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
93
94 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
95 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
96 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
97 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
98 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
99 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
100 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
101
102 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
103 (CVE-2016-6304)
104 [Matt Caswell]
105
106 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
107
108 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
109 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
110 Denial Of Service attack.
111
112 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
113 (CVE-2016-6305)
114 [Matt Caswell]
115
116 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
117 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
118
119 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
120 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
121 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
122 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
123 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
124 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
125 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
126 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
127 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
128 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
129 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
130 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed conneciton in a timely
131 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
132 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
133 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
134
135 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
136 that the connection fails
137 or
138 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
139 very little free memory
140 or
141 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
142 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
143 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
144 memory to service the multiple requests.
145
146 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
147 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
148 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
149 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
150 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
151
152 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
153 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
154 [Matt Caswell]
155
156 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
157 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
158 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
159 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
160 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
161 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
162 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
163 [Andy Polyakov]
164
165 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
166
167 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
168 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
169 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
170 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
171 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
172 non-ASCII password.
173 [Andy Polyakov]
174
175 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
176 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
177 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
178 [Rich Salz]
179
180 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
181 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
182 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
183 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
184 [Matt Caswell]
185
186 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
187 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
188 success.
189 [Matt Caswell]
190
191 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
192 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
193 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
194 no-ops and deprecated.
195 [Matt Caswell]
196
197 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
198 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
199 were also closed.
200 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
201
202 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
203 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
204 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
205 [Rich Salz]
206
207 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
208 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
209 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
210 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
211 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
212 and the validity of object reference counter.
213 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
214
215 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
216 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
217 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
218 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
219 [Richard Levitte]
220
221 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
222 [Richard Levitte]
223
224 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
225 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
226 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
227 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
228
229 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
230
231 [Richard Levitte]
232
233 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
234 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
235 [Steve Henson]
236
237 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
238 [Andy Polyakov]
239
240 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
241 [Rich Salz]
242
243 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
244 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
245 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
246 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
247 name and is used as is.
248 [Richard Levitte]
249
250 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
251 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
252 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
253 [Rich Salz]
254
255 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
256 the "no-shared" Configure option.
257 [Matt Caswell]
258
259 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
260 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
261 algorithms.
262 [Matt Caswell]
263
264 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
265 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
266 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
267 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
268 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
269 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
270 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
271 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
272 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
273 [Matt Caswell]
274
275 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
276 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
277 enabled with '--debug' builds.
278 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
279
280 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
281 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
282 these have been added.
283 [Matt Caswell]
284
285 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
286 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
287 functions for managing these have been added.
288 [Richard Levitte]
289
290 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
291 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
292 these have been added.
293 [Matt Caswell]
294
295 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
296 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
297 have been added.
298 [Matt Caswell]
299
300 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
301 [Matt Caswell]
302
303 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
304 [Richard Levitte]
305
306 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
307 it is always safe to #include a header now.
308 [Rich Salz]
309
310 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
311 [Richard Levitte]
312
313 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
314 [Rich Salz]
315
316 *) Add support for HKDF.
317 [Alessandro Ghedini]
318
319 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
320 [Bill Cox]
321
322 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
323 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
324 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
325 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
326 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
327 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
328 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
329 [Matt Caswell]
330
331 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
332 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
333 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
334 [Catriona Lucey]
335
336 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
337 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
338 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
339 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
340 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
341 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
342 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
343
344 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
345 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
346 [Todd Short]
347
348 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
349 [Todd Short]
350
351 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
352 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
353 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
354 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
355 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
356 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
357 default cipherlist.
358 [Emilia Käsper]
359
360 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
361 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
362 [Rich Salz]
363
364 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
365 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
366 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
367 [Matt Caswell]
368
369 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
370 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
371 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
372 implemented by other servers.
373 [Emilia Käsper]
374
375 *) Add X25519 support.
376 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
377 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
378 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The coresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
379 key generation and key derivation.
380
381 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
382 X25519(29).
383 [Steve Henson]
384
385 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
386 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
387 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
388 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
389 seed, even if the seed is configured.
390
391 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
392 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
393 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
394 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
395 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
396 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
397 that of a valid user.
398 [Emilia Käsper]
399
400 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
401 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
402 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
403 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
404
405 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
406 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
407
408 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
409 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
410 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
411 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
412
413 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
414 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
415 irrelevant.
416 [Richard Levitte]
417
418 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
419 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
420 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
421 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
422 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
423 of how OpenSSL was configured.
424
425 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
426 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
427 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
428 [Richard Levitte]
429
430 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
431 [Rich Salz]
432
433 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
434 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
435 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
436 removed.
437 [Richard Levitte]
438
439 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
440 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
441 old #define's might need to be updated.
442 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
443
444 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
445 [Rich Salz]
446
447 *) New "unified" build system
448
449 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
450 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
451
452 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
453 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
454 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
455
456 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
457 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
458 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
459 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
460 descrip.mms.tmpl.
461
462 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
463 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
464 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
465 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
466 libraries" in INSTALL.
467
468 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
469 [Richard Levitte]
470
471 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
472 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
473 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
474 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
475 [Matt Caswell]
476
477 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
478 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
479
480 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
481 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
482 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
483 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
484 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
485 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
486 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
487 have been adapted accordingly.
488 [Richard Levitte]
489
490 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
491 the leading 0-byte.
492 [Emilia Käsper]
493
494 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
495 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
496 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
497 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
498 [Emilia Käsper]
499
500 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
501 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
502 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
503 'unsigned char*'.
504 [Emilia Käsper]
505
506 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
507 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
508 [Emilia Käsper]
509
510 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
511 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
512 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
513 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
514 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
515 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
516 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
517
518 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
519 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
520
521 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
522 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
523 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
524 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
525 Text::Template.
526
527 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
528 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
529 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
530 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
531 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
532 %target).
533 [Richard Levitte]
534
535 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
536 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
537 straightforward and less interdependent.
538
539 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
540 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
541 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
542
543 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
544 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
545 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
546 installed.
547 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
548 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
549 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
550 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
551
552 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
553 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
554 [Richard Levitte]
555
556 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
557 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
558 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
559 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
560 is present).
561 [Matt Caswell]
562
563 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
564 configuring.
565 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
566
567 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
568 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
569 before trying to build now.*
570 [Rich Salz]
571
572 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
573 has changed.
574 [Rich Salz]
575
576 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
577
578 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
579 the application's responsibility. The application provides
580 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
581 used to authenticate the peer.
582
583 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
584 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
585 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
586 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
587 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
588 [Viktor Dukhovni]
589
590 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
591 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
592 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
593 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
594 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
595 or the 1.1.0 releases.
596
597 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
598 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
599 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
600 support for the deprecated features from the library and
601 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
602 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
603 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
604 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
605 version.
606
607 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
608 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
609 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
610 compile with later releases.
611
612 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
613 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
614 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
615 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
616 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
617 [Viktor Dukhovni]
618
619 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
620 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
621 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
622 MaxProtcol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
623 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
624 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
625 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
626 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
627 [Kurt Roeckx]
628
629 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
630 [Andy Polyakov]
631
632 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
633 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
634 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
635 ECDSA_SIG format.
636
637 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
638 include the ec.h header file instead.
639 [Steve Henson]
640
641 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
642 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
643 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
644 [Kurt Roeckx]
645
646 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
647 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
648 were added:
649
650 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
651 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
652
653 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
654 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
655 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
656
657 Additional changes:
658 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
659 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
660 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
661 an already created structure.
662 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
663 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
664 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
665 for deprecated builds.
666 [Richard Levitte]
667
668 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
669 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
670 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
671 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
672 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
673 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
674 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
675 [Matt Caswell]
676
677 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
678 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
679 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
680 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
681 [Kurt Roeckx]
682
683 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
684 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
685 [Kurt Roeckx]
686
687 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
688 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
689 [Kurt Roeckx]
690
691 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
692 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
693 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
694 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
695 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
696 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
697 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
698 also been removed.
699 [Matt Caswell]
700
701 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
702 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
703 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
704 [Rich Salz]
705
706 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
707 [Rich Salz]
708
709 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
710 sureware and ubsec.
711 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
712
713 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
714
715 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
716 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
717
718 FOO *x;
719
720 it must be:
721
722 FOO x;
723
724 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
725 set a mandatory field to NULL.
726
727 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
728 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
729 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
730 SEQUENCE OF.
731 [Steve Henson]
732
733 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
734 [Emilia Käsper]
735
736 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
737 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
738 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
739 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
740 [Matt Caswell]
741
742 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
743 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
744 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
745 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
746 [Emilia Käsper]
747
748 *) Fix no-stdio build.
749 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
750 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
751
752 *) New testing framework
753 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
754 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
755 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
756 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
757 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
758 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
759
760 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
761
762 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
763 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
764
765 [Richard Levitte]
766
767 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
768 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
769 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
770 and others were changed. All are now documented.
771 [Rich Salz]
772
773 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
774 return an error
775 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
776
777 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
778 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
779
780 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
781 original RSA_PSK patch.
782 [Steve Henson]
783
784 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
785 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
786 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
787 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
788 [Matt Caswell]
789
790 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
791 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
792 [Richard Levitte]
793
794 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
795 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
796 hasn't been working properly for a while.
797 [Emilia Käsper]
798
799 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
800 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
801 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
802 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
803 transferred.
804 [Matt Caswell]
805
806 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
807 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
808 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
809 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
810 [Matt Caswell]
811
812 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
813 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
814 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
815 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
816 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
817 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
818 [Matt Caswell]
819
820 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
821 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
822 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
823 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
824 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
825 header file has been removed.
826 [Matt Caswell]
827
828 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
829 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
830 [Matt Caswell]
831
832 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
833 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
834 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
835
836 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
837 Added a test.
838 [Rich Salz]
839
840 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
841 [Rich Salz]
842
843 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
844 sha256
845 [Rich Salz]
846
847 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
848 [Matt Caswell]
849
850 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
851 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
852 initial patch which was a great help during development.
853 [Steve Henson]
854
855 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
856 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
857 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
858 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
859 [Matt Caswell]
860
861 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
862 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
863 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
864 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
865 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
866 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
867 [Matt Caswell]
868
869 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
870 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
871 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
872 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
873 [Matt Caswell]
874
875 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
876 compatible client hello.
877 [Kurt Roeckx]
878
879 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
880 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
881 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
882
883 *) CA.sh has been removmed; use CA.pl instead.
884 [Rich Salz]
885
886 *) Removed old DES API.
887 [Rich Salz]
888
889 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
890 Sony NEWS4
891 BEOS and BEOS_R5
892 NeXT
893 SUNOS
894 MPE/iX
895 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
896 DGUX
897 NCR
898 Tandem
899 Cray
900 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
901 [Rich Salz]
902
903 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
904 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
905 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
906 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
907 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
908 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
909 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
910 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
911 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
912 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
913 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
914 [Rich Salz]
915
916 *) Cleaned up dead code
917 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
918 [Rich Salz]
919
920 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
921 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
922 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
923 [Rich Salz]
924
925 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
926 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
927 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
928 [Rich Salz]
929
930 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
931 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
932 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
933
934 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
935 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
936 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
937
938 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
939 compilation flags.
940 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
941
942 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
943 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
944 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
945
946 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
947 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
948
949 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
950 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
951 server.
952
953 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
954 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
955 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
956 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
957
958 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
959 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
960 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
961 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
962
963 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
964 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
965 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
966
967 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
968 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
969 [Steve Henson]
970
971 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
972
973 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
974 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
975
976 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
977 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
978
979 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
980 effect.
981
982 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
983
984 [Steve Henson]
985
986 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
987 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
988 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
989 algorithms and include tests cases.
990 [Steve Henson]
991
992 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
993 enveloped data.
994 [Steve Henson]
995
996 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
997 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
998 [Steve Henson]
999
1000 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1001 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1002
1003 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
1004 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
1005 [Steve Henson]
1006
1007 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
1008 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
1009 failures.
1010 [Steve Henson]
1011
1012 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
1013 sign or verify all in one operation.
1014 [Steve Henson]
1015
1016 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
1017 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
1018 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
1019 [Steve Henson]
1020
1021 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
1022 [Steve Henson]
1023
1024 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
1025 [Steve Henson]
1026
1027 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
1028 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
1029 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
1030 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
1031 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
1032 [Steve Henson]
1033
1034 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
1035 based on NID.
1036 [Steve Henson]
1037
1038 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
1039 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
1040 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
1041 [Steve Henson]
1042
1043 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
1044 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
1045
1046 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
1047 POST to handle HMAC cases.
1048 [Steve Henson]
1049
1050 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
1051 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
1052 [Steve Henson]
1053
1054 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
1055 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
1056 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1057 [Steve Henson]
1058
1059 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
1060 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
1061 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
1062 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
1063 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
1064 requested amount of entropy.
1065 [Steve Henson]
1066
1067 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
1068 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
1069 [Steve Henson]
1070
1071 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
1072 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
1073 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
1074 support.
1075 [Steve Henson]
1076
1077 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
1078 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
1079 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
1080 [Steve Henson]
1081
1082 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
1083 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
1084 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
1085 will never use XTS mode.
1086 [Steve Henson]
1087
1088 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
1089 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
1090 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
1091 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
1092 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
1093 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
1094 [Steve Henson]
1095
1096 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
1097 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
1098 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
1099 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
1100 [Steve Henson]
1101
1102 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
1103 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
1104 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
1105 [Steve Henson]
1106
1107 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
1108 [Steve Henson]
1109
1110 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
1111 [Steve Henson]
1112
1113 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
1114 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
1115 [Steve Henson]
1116
1117 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
1118 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
1119 [Steve Henson]
1120
1121 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
1122 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
1123 [Steve Henson]
1124
1125 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
1126 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
1127 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
1128 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
1129 and rename any affected symbols.
1130 [Steve Henson]
1131
1132 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
1133 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
1134 [Steve Henson]
1135
1136 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
1137 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
1138 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
1139 [Steve Henson]
1140
1141 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1142 [Steve Henson]
1143
1144 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
1145 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
1146 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
1147 [Steve Henson]
1148
1149 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
1150 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
1151 [Steve Henson]
1152
1153 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
1154 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
1155 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
1156 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
1157 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
1158 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
1159 set before the key.
1160 [Steve Henson]
1161
1162 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
1163 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
1164 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
1165 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
1166 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
1167 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
1168 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
1169 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
1170 [Steve Henson]
1171
1172 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
1173 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
1174 [Steve Henson]
1175
1176 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
1177
1178 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
1179 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
1180
1181 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
1182 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
1183 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
1184 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
1185 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
1186 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
1187
1188 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
1189 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
1190 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
1191 security.
1192 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1193
1194 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
1195 parameters by name.
1196 [Steve Henson]
1197
1198 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
1199 Add CMAC pkey methods.
1200 [Steve Henson]
1201
1202 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
1203 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
1204 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
1205 [Steve Henson]
1206
1207 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
1208 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
1209 multi-process servers.
1210 [Steve Henson]
1211
1212 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
1213 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
1214 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
1215 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
1216 RAND_METHOD structure.
1217 [Steve Henson]
1218
1219 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
1220 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
1221 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
1222 whose return value is often ignored.
1223 [Steve Henson]
1224
1225 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
1226 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
1227 validated when establishing a connection.
1228 [Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>]

1230 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
1231
1232 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
1233
1234 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
1235 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
1236 AES-NI.
1237
1238 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
1239 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
1240 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
1241 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
1242 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
1243 bytes.
1244
1245 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
1246 (CVE-2016-2107)
1247 [Kurt Roeckx]
1248
1249 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
1250
1251 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
1252 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
1253 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
1254 corruption.
1255
1256 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
1257 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
1258 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
1259 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
1260 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
1261 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
1262
1263 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
1264 (CVE-2016-2105)
1265 [Matt Caswell]
1266
1267 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
1268
1269 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
1270 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
1271 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
1272 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
1273 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
1274 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
1275 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
1276 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
1277 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
1278 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
1279 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
1280 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
1281 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
1282 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
1283 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
1284 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
1285
1286 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
1287 (CVE-2016-2106)
1288 [Matt Caswell]
1289
1290 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
1291
1292 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
1293 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
1294 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
1295
1296 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
1297 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
1298 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
1299 applications are not affected.
1300
1301 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
1302 (CVE-2016-2109)
1303 [Stephen Henson]
1304
1305 *) EBCDIC overread
1306
1307 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
1308 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
1309 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
1310
1311 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
1312 (CVE-2016-2176)
1313 [Matt Caswell]
1314
1315 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1316 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1317 [Todd Short]
1318
1319 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
1320 default.
1321 [Kurt Roeckx]
1322
1323 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
1324 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
1325 [Kurt Roeckx]
1326
1327 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
1328
1329 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
1330 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
1331 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
1332 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1333
1334 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
1335 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
1336 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
1337 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
1338 will need to explicitly call either of:
1339
1340 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
1341 or
1342 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
1343
1344 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
1345 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
1346 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
1347 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
1348 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
1349 (CVE-2016-0800)
1350 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1351
1352 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
1353
1354 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
1355 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
1356 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
1357 considered rare.
1358
1359 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
1360 libFuzzer.
1361 (CVE-2016-0705)
1362 [Stephen Henson]
1363
1364 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
1365
1366 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
1367
1368 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1369 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
1370 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
1371 is configured.
1372
1373 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1374 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1375 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1376 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1377 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1378 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1379 that of a valid user.
1380 (CVE-2016-0798)
1381 [Emilia Käsper]
1382
1383 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
1384
1385 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
1386 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
1387 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
1388 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
1389 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
1390 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
1391 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
1392 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
1393 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
1394 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
1395 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
1396
1397 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
1398 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
1399 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
1400 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
1401 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
1402
1403 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
1404 (CVE-2016-0797)
1405 [Matt Caswell]
1406
1407 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
1408
1409 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
1410 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
1411 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
1412
1413 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
1414 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
1415 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
1416 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
1417 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
1418 also occur.
1419
1420 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
1421 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
1422 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
1423 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
1424 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
1425 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
1426 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
1427 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
1428 as command line arguments.
1429
1430 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
1431 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
1432 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
1433
1434 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
1435 (CVE-2016-0799)
1436 [Matt Caswell]
1437
1438 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
1439
1440 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
1441 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
1442 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
1443 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
1444 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
1445
1446 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
1447 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
1448 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
1449 http://cachebleed.info.

1453 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
1454 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
1455 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
1456 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
1457 [Emilia Käsper]
1458
1459 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
1460 *) DH small subgroups
1461
1462 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
1463 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
1464 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
1465 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
1466 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
1467 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
1468 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
1469 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
1470 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
1471 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
1472
1473 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
1474 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
1475 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
1476 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
1477 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
1478
1479 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
1480 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
1481 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
1482 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
1483
1484 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
1485 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
1486
1487 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).

1490
1491 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
1492
1493 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
1494 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
1495 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
1496 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

1506
1507 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
1508 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
1509 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
1510 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
1511 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
1512 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
1513 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
1514 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
1515 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
1516 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
1517 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
1518 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

1521 (CVE-2015-3193)
1522 [Andy Polyakov]
1523
1524 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
1525
1526 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
1527 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
1528 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
1529 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
1530 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
1531 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
1532 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
1533 authentication.
1534
1535 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
1536 (CVE-2015-3194)
1537 [Stephen Henson]
1538
1539 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
1540
1541 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
1542 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
1543 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
1544 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
1545
1546 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
1547 libFuzzer.
1548 (CVE-2015-3195)
1549 [Stephen Henson]
1550
1551 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
1552 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
1553 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
1554 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.

1560
1561 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
1562
1563 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
1564
1565 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
1566 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
1567 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
1568 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
1569 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
1570 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
1571
1572 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin

1575
1576 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
1577
1578 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
1579 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
1580 restored.

1582
1583 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
1584
1585 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
1586
1587 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
1588 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
1589 field.
1590
1591 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
1592 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
1593 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
1594 client authentication enabled.
1595
1596 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
1597 (CVE-2015-1788)
1598 [Andy Polyakov]
1599
1600 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
1601
1602 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
1603 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
1604 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
1605 time string.
1606
1607 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
1608 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
1609 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
1610 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
1611 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
1612 callbacks.
1613
1614 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
1615 independently by Hanno Böck.
1616 (CVE-2015-1789)
1617 [Emilia Käsper]
1618
1619 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
1620
1621 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
1622 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
1623 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
1624
1625 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
1626 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
1627 servers are not affected.

1631 [Emilia Käsper]
1632
1633 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
1634
1635 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
1636 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
1637 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
1638 the CMS code.
1639 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.

1641 [Stephen Henson]
1642
1643 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
1644
1645 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
1646 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
1647 a double free of the ticket data.
1648 (CVE-2015-1791)

1657
1658 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
1659
1660 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
1661 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
1662 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
1663
1664 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
1665 University.
1666 (CVE-2015-0291)
1667 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
1668
1669 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
1670
1671 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
1672 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
1673 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
1674 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
1675 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
1676 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
1677 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
1678 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
1679
1680 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
1681 (CVE-2015-0290)
1682 [Matt Caswell]
1683
1684 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
1685
1686 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
1687 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
1688 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
1689 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
1690 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
1691 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
1692 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
1693 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
1694 server.
1695
1696 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
1697 (CVE-2015-0207)
1698 [Matt Caswell]
1699
1700 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
1701
1702 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
1703 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
1704 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
1705 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
1706 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
1707 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
1708 (CVE-2015-0286)
1709 [Stephen Henson]
1710
1711 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
1712
1713 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
1714 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
1715 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
1716 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
1717 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
1718 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
1719 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
1720
1721 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
1722 (CVE-2015-0208)
1723 [Stephen Henson]
1724
1725 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
1726
1727 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
1728 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
1729 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
1730
1731 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
1732 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
1733 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
1734 not affected.
1735 (CVE-2015-0287)
1736 [Stephen Henson]
1737
1738 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
1739
1740 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
1741 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
1742 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
1743
1744 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
1745 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
1746 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
1747
1748 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
1749 (CVE-2015-0289)
1750 [Emilia Käsper]
1751
1752 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
1753
1754 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
1755 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
1756 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
1757
1758 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
1759 (OpenSSL development team).
1760 (CVE-2015-0293)
1761 [Emilia Käsper]
1762
1763 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
1764
1765 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
1766 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
1767 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
1768 (CVE-2015-1787)
1769 [Matt Caswell]
1770
1771 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
1772
1773 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
1774 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
1775 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
1776 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
1777 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
1778 SSL_client_methodv23)
1779 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
1780 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
1781
1782 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
1783 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
1784 output may be predictable.
1785
1786 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
1787 succeed on an unpatched platform:
1788
1789 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
1790 (CVE-2015-0285)
1791 [Matt Caswell]
1792
1793 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
1794
1795 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
1796 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
1797 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
1798 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
1799 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
1800 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
1801
1802 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
1803 commit 517073cd4b.

1805 [Matt Caswell]
1806
1807 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
1808
1809 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
1810 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
1811
1812 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.

1816 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
1817 [Kurt Roeckx]
1818
1819 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
1820
1821 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
1822 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
1823 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
1824 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
1825 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
1826 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
1827 [Andy Polyakov]
1828
1829 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
1830 (other platforms pending).
1831 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
1832
1833 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
1834 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
1835 [Rob Stradling]
1836
1837 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1838 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1839 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1840 [Bodo Moeller]
1841
1842 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
1843 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
1844 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
1845 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
1846 [Andy Polyakov]
1847
1848 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
1849 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
1850
1851 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
1852 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
1853 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
1854 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
1855 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
1856
1857 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
1858 [Andy Polyakov]
1859
1860 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
1861 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
1862 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
1863 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
1864
1865 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
1866 RSAZ.
1867 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
1868
1869 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
1870 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
1871 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
1872 for TLS encrypt.
1873
1874 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
1875 [Andy Polyakov]
1876
1877 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
1878 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
1879 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
1880 [Steve Henson]
1881
1882 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1883 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1884 [Steve Henson]
1885
1886 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1887 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1888 [Steve Henson]
1889
1890 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1891 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1892 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1893 algorithms and include tests cases.
1894 [Steve Henson]
1895
1896 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
1897 structure.
1898 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
1899
1900 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
1901 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
1902 [Steve Henson]
1903
1904 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
1905 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
1906 summary of the connection parameters.
1907 [Steve Henson]
1908
1909 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
1910 of connection parameters.
1911 [Steve Henson]
1912
1913 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
1914 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
1915
1916 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
1917 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
1918 [Steve Henson]
1919
1920 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
1921 [Steve Henson]
1922
1923 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
1924 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
1925 [Steve Henson]
1926
1927 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
1928 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
1929 [Steve Henson]
1930
1931 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
1932 certificates.
1933 [Steve Henson]
1934
1935 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
1936 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
1937 CRLs using the OCSP API.
1938 [Steve Henson]
1939
1940 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
1941 [Steve Henson]
1942
1943 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
1944 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
1945 [Steve Henson]
1946
1947 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
1948 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
1949 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
1950 tracing.
1951 [Steve Henson]
1952
1953 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
1954 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
1955 [Steve Henson]
1956
1957 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
1958 OID NID.
1959 [Steve Henson]
1960
1961 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
1962 client to OpenSSL.
1963 [Steve Henson]
1964
1965 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
1966 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
1967 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
1968 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
1969 [Steve Henson]
1970
1971 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
1972 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
1973 [Steve Henson]
1974
1975 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
1976 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
1977 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
1978 comparison.
1979 [Steve Henson]
1980
1981 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
1982 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
1983 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
1984 use the certificate.
1985 [Steve Henson]
1986
1987 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
1988 [Steve Henson]
1989
1990 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
1991 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
1992 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
1993 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
1994 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
1995 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
1996 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
1997
1998 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
1999 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
2000
2001 [Steve Henson]
2002
2003 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
2004 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
2005 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
2006 [Steve Henson]
2007
2008 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
2009 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
2010 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
2011 supported signature algorithms.
2012 [Steve Henson]
2013
2014 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
2015 [Steve Henson]
2016
2017 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
2018 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
2019 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
2020 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
2021 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
2022 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
2023 certificate and specify the whole chain.
2024 [Steve Henson]
2025
2026 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
2027 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
2028 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
2029 to have similar checks in it.
2030
2031 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
2032 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
2033 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
2034 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
2035 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
2036 [Steve Henson]
2037
2038 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
2039 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
2040 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
2041 shared signature algorithms.
2042 [Steve Henson]
2043
2044 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
2045 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
2046 to support them.
2047 [Steve Henson]
2048
2049 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
2050 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
2051 it couldn't be removed.
2052 [Steve Henson]
2053
2054 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
2055 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
2056 [Steve Henson]
2057
2058 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
2059 functions. Add manual page.
2060 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
2061
2062 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
2063 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
2064 a certificate.
2065 [Steve Henson]
2066
2067 *) Fix OCSP checking.
2068 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
2069
2070 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
2071 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
2072 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
2073 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
2074 utility) or reject.
2075 [Steve Henson]
2076
2077 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
2078 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
2079 [Steve Henson]
2080
2081 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
2082 platform support for Linux and Android.
2083 [Andy Polyakov]
2084
2085 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
2086 [Andy Polyakov]
2087
2088 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2089 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
2090 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
2091 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
2092 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
2093 [Steve Henson]
2094
2095 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
2096 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
2097 the new parameter format automatically.
2098 [Steve Henson]
2099
2100 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
2101 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
2102 [Steve Henson]
2103
2104 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
2105 [Steve Henson]
2106
2107 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
2108 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
2109 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
2110 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
2111 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
2112 [Steve Henson]
2113
2114 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
2115 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
2116 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
2117 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
2118 to set list of supported curves.
2119 [Steve Henson]
2120
2121 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
2122 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
2123 to print out received values.
2124 [Steve Henson]
2125
2126 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
2127 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
2128 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
2129 [Steve Henson]
2130
2131 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
2132 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
2133 [Steve Henson]
2134
2135 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
2136 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
2137 [Steve Henson]
2138
2139 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
2140 certificates.
2141 [Steve Henson]
2142
2143 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
2144 the certificate.
2145 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
2146 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
2147 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
2148
2149 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
2150
2151 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
2152 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
2153
2154 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
2155
2156 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
2157 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
2158 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
2159 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
2160 (CVE-2014-3571)
2161 [Steve Henson]
2162
2163 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
2164 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
2165 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
2166 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
2167 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
2168 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
2169 (CVE-2015-0206)
2170 [Matt Caswell]
2171
2172 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
2173 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
2174 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
2175 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
2176 (CVE-2014-3569)
2177 [Kurt Roeckx]
2178
2179 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
2180 ECDH ciphersuites.
2181
2182 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
2183 reporting this issue.
2184 (CVE-2014-3572)
2185 [Steve Henson]
2186
2187 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
2188 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
2189 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
2190 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
2191 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
2192 INRIA or reporting this issue.
2193 (CVE-2015-0204)
2194 [Steve Henson]
2195
2196 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
2197 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
2198 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
2199 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
2200 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
2201 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
2202 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
2203 this issue.
2204 (CVE-2015-0205)
2205 [Steve Henson]
2206
2207 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
2208 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
2209
2210 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
2211 and can vary with the CTX.
2212 [Adam Langley]
2213
2214 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
2215
2216 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
2217 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
2218 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
2219 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
2220 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
2221
2222 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
2223
2224 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
2225 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
2226
2227 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
2228
2229 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
2230 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
2231 errors for some broken certificates.
2232
2233 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
2234
2235 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
2236
2237 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
2238 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
2239
2240 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
2241 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
2242 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
2243 (negative or with leading zeroes).
2244
2245 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
2246 of the OpenSSL core team.
2247
2248 (CVE-2014-8275)
2249 [Steve Henson]
2250
2251 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
2252 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
2253 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
2254 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
2255 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
2256 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
2257 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
2258 the OpenSSL core team.
2259 (CVE-2014-3570)
2260 [Andy Polyakov]
2261
2262 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
2263 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
2264 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
2265 sanity and breaks all known clients.
2266 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
2267
2268 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
2269 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
2270 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
2271 [Emilia Käsper]
2272
2273 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
2274 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
2275 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
2276 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
2277 announced in the initial ServerHello.
2278
2279 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
2280 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
2281 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
2282 [Emilia Käsper]
2283
2284 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
2285
2286 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
2287
2288 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
2289 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
2290 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
2291 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
2292 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
2293 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
2294 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
2295
2296 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
2297 (CVE-2014-3513)
2298 [OpenSSL team]
2299
2300 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
2301
2302 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
2303 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
2304 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
2305 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
2306 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
2307 attack.
2308 (CVE-2014-3567)
2309 [Steve Henson]
2310
2311 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
2312
2313 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
2314 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
2315 configured to send them.
2316 (CVE-2014-3568)
2317 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
2318
2319 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
2320 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
2321 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
2322 (CVE-2014-3566)
2323 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
2324
2325 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
2326
2327 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
2328 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
2329 DigestInfo structures.
2330
2331 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
2332
2333 [Steve Henson]
2334
2335 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
2336
2337 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
2338 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
2339 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
2340
2341 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
2342 Group for discovering this issue.
2343 (CVE-2014-3512)
2344 [Steve Henson]
2345
2346 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
2347 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
2348 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
2349 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
2350 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
2351
2352 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
2353 researching this issue.
2354 (CVE-2014-3511)
2355 [David Benjamin]
2356
2357 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
2358 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
2359 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
2360 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
2361
2362 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
2363 issue.
2364 (CVE-2014-3510)
2365 [Emilia Käsper]
2366
2367 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
2368 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
2369 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
2370 (CVE-2014-3507)
2371 [Adam Langley]
2372
2373 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
2374 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
2375 Denial of Service attack.
2376 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
2377 (CVE-2014-3506)
2378 [Adam Langley]
2379
2380 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
2381 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
2382 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
2383 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
2384 this issue.
2385 (CVE-2014-3505)
2386 [Adam Langley]
2387
2388 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
2389 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
2390 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
2391
2392 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
2393 issue.
2394 (CVE-2014-3509)
2395 [Gabor Tyukasz]
2396
2397 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
2398 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
2399 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
2400 Denial of Service attack.
2401
2402 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
2403 discovering and researching this issue.
2404 (CVE-2014-5139)
2405 [Steve Henson]
2406
2407 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
2408 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
2409 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
2410 output to the attacker.
2411
2412 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
2413 (CVE-2014-3508)
2414 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
2415
2416 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2417 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2418 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2419 [Bodo Moeller]
2420
2421 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
2422
2423 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
2424 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
2425 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
2426
2427 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
2428 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
2429 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
2430
2431 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
2432 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
2433 in a DoS attack.
2434
2435 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
2436 (CVE-2014-0221)
2437 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
2438
2439 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
2440 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
2441 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
2442 code on a vulnerable client or server.
2443
2444 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
2445 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
2446
2447 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
2448 are subject to a denial of service attack.
2449
2450 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
2451 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
2452 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
2453
2454 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
2455 compilation flags.
2456 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2457
2458 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
2459 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
2460 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2461
2462 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
2463 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
2464
2465 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
2466
2467 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
2468 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
2469 server.
2470
2471 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
2472 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
2473 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
2474 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
2475
2476 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
2477 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
2478 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
2479 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
2480
2481 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
2482 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
2483 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
2484
2485 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
2486
2487 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
2488 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
2489 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
2490 is at least 512 bytes long.
2491
2492 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
2493
2494 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
2495
2496 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
2497 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
2498 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
2499 (CVE-2013-4353)
2500
2501 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
2502 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
2503 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
2504 [Steve Henson]
2505
2506 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
2507 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
2508 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
2509 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
2510 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
2511 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.

2514 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
2515
2516 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
2517 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
2518 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2519
2520 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
2521
2522 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
2523
2524 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
2525 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
2526 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
2527
2528 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2529 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2530 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
2531 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
2532 (CVE-2013-0169)
2533 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2534
2535 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
2536 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
2537 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
2538 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
2539 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
2540 (CVE-2012-2686)
2541 [Adam Langley]
2542
2543 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2544 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2545 [Steve Henson]
2546
2547 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
2548 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
2549
2550 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
2551 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
2552 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
2553 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
2554 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2555
2556 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2557 [Steve Henson]
2558
2559 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
2560 if renegotiating.
2561 [Steve Henson]
2562
2563 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
2564
2565 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
2566 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
2567
2568 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2569 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2570 (CVE-2012-2333)
2571 [Steve Henson]
2572
2573 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2574 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2575 [Steve Henson]
2576
2577 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
2578 approved.
2579 [Steve Henson]
2580
2581 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
2582
2583 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
2584 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
2585 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
2586 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
2587 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
2588 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
2589 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
2590 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
2591 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
2592 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
2593 [Steve Henson]
2594
2595 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
2596 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
2597 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
2598 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
2599 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
2600 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
2601 client side.
2602 [Andy Polyakov]
2603
2604 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
2605
2606 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2607 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2608 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2609
2610 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2611 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2612 (CVE-2012-2110)
2613 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2614
2615 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
2616 [Adam Langley]
2617
2618 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
2619 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
2620
2621 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
2622 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
2623 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
2624 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
2625 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
2626 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
2627 Most broken servers should now work.
2628 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
2629 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
2630 [Steve Henson]
2631
2632 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
2633 [Andy Polyakov]
2634
2635 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
2636
2637 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
2638 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
2639 [Steve Henson]
2640
2641 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
2642 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
2643 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
2644 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
2645 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
2646 [Steve Henson]
2647
2648 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
2649 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
2650 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
2651 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
2652 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
2653 [Steve Henson]
2654
2655 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
2656 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2657
2658 *) Add support for SCTP.
2659 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2660
2661 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
2662 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
2663
2664 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
2665
2666 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
2667 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
2668 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
2669 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
2670 - s390x: z196 support;
2671 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
2672
2673 [Andy Polyakov]
2674
2675 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
2676 (removal of unnecessary code)
2677 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
2678
2679 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
2680 [Eric Rescorla]
2681
2682 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
2683 [Eric Rescorla]
2684
2685 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
2686 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
2687 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
2688 by Google.
2689 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
2690
2691 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
2692 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
2693 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
2694 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
2695 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
2696
2697 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
2698 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
2699 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
2700
2701 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
2702 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
2703 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
2704
2705 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
2706 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
2707 implementations).
2708 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2709
2710 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
2711 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
2712 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
2713 [Steve Henson]
2714
2715 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
2716 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
2717 particular PSS.
2718 [Steve Henson]
2719
2720 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
2721 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
2722 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
2723 [Steve Henson]
2724
2725 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
2726 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
2727 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
2728 the appropriate parameters.
2729 [Steve Henson]
2730
2731 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
2732 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
2733 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
2734 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
2735 against a number of sample certificates.
2736 [Steve Henson]
2737
2738 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
2739 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
2740
2741 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
2742 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
2743
2744 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
2745 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
2746 parameters r, s.
2747 [Steve Henson]
2748
2749 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
2750 RFC3211.
2751 [Steve Henson]
2752
2753 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
2754 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
2755 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
2756 password based CMS).
2757 [Steve Henson]
2758
2759 *) Session-handling fixes:
2760 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
2761 but also support Session Tickets.
2762 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
2763 presented a ticket with an expired session.
2764 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
2765 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
2766 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
2767 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2768
2769 *) Fix PSK session representation.
2770 [Bodo Moeller]
2771
2772 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
2773
2774 This work was sponsored by Intel.
2775 [Andy Polyakov]
2776
2777 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
2778 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
2779 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
2780 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
2781 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
2782 [Steve Henson]
2783
2784 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
2785 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
2786 [Steve Henson]
2787
2788 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
2789 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
2790 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
2791 [Steve Henson]
2792
2793 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
2794 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
2795 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
2796 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
2797 [Steve Henson]
2798
2799 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
2800 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
2801 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
2802 [Steve Henson]
2803
2804 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
2805 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
2806
2807 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
2808 [Steve Henson]
2809
2810 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
2811 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
2812 [Steve Henson]
2813
2814 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2815 [Steve Henson]
2816
2817 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
2818 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
2819 [Steve Henson]
2820
2821 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
2822 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
2823 [Steve Henson]
2824
2825 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
2826 [Steve Henson]
2827
2828 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
2829 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
2830 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
2831 [Steve Henson]
2832
2833 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
2834 [Steve Henson]
2835
2836 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
2837 [Steve Henson]
2838
2839 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
2840 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
2841 [Steve Henson]
2842
2843 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
2844 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
2845 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
2846 [Steve Henson]
2847
2848 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
2849 [Steve Henson]
2850
2851 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
2852 and enable MD5.
2853 [Steve Henson]
2854
2855 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
2856 FIPS modules versions.
2857 [Steve Henson]
2858
2859 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
2860 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
2861 until after the certificate request message is received.
2862 [Steve Henson]
2863
2864 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
2865 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
2866 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
2867 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
2868 [Steve Henson]
2869
2870 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
2871 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
2872 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
2873 support yet and no support for client certificates.
2874 [Steve Henson]
2875
2876 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
2877 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
2878 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
2879 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
2880 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
2881 and version checking.
2882 [Steve Henson]
2883
2884 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
2885 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
2886 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
2887 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
2888 [Steve Henson]
2889
2890 *) Add SRP support.
2891 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2892
2893 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
2894 [Steve Henson]
2895
2896 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
2897 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
2898 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2899
2900 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
2901 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
2902 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
2903 [Steve Henson]
2904
2905 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
2906 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
2907
2908 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
2909 a few changes are required:
2910
2911 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
2912 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
2913 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
2914 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
2915 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
2916 [Steve Henson]
2917
2918 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
2919
2920 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2921 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2922 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2923 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2924 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
2925 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2926 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2927 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2928 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2929 [Steve Henson]
2930
2931 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2932 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2933 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2934 [Steve Henson]
2935
2936 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
2937
2938 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2939 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2940 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2941 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2942 [Antonio Martin]
2943
2944 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
2945
2946 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2947 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2948 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2949 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2950 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2951 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2952 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2953 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2954 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2955 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2956 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2957 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2958 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2959
2960 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2961 (CVE-2011-4576)
2962 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2963
2964 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2965 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2966 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2967 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2968
2969 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
2970 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
2971
2972 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2973 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2974 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2975 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2976
2977 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
2978 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
2979
2980 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2981 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2982
2983 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2984 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2985
2986 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2987 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2988 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2989
2990 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2991 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2992 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2993
2994 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2995 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2996 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2997 the last update always remained unused).
2998 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2999
3000 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
3001 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
3002
3003 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
3004
3005 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
3006 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
3007 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
3008
3009 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
3010 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
3011 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3012
3013 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
3014 [Bodo Moeller]
3015
3016 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
3017 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
3018 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
3019 [Steve Henson]
3020
3021 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
3022 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
3023
3024 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
3025
3026 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
3027
3028 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
3029
3030 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
3031 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3032
3033 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
3034 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
3035 ambiguous.
3036 [Steve Henson]
3037
3038 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
3039
3040 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
3041 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
3042 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
3043 [Steve Henson]
3044
3045 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
3046 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
3047 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
3048 [Ben Laurie]
3049
3050 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
3051
3052 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
3053 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
3054 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
3055 [Steve Henson]
3056
3057 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
3058 a DLL.
3059 [Steve Henson]
3060
3061 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
3062
3063 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
3064 (CVE-2010-1633)
3065 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
3066
3067 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
3068
3069 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
3070 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
3071 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
3072 [Steve Henson]
3073
3074 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
3075 [Steve Henson]
3076
3077 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
3078 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
3079 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
3080
3081 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
3082 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
3083 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
3084 [Steve Henson]
3085
3086 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
3087 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
3088 [Steve Henson]
3089
3090 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
3091 some responders need this.
3092 [Steve Henson]
3093
3094 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
3095 correctly.
3096 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
3097
3098 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
3099 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
3100 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
3101 [Steve Henson]
3102
3103 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
3104 [Steve Henson]
3105
3106 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
3107 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
3108 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
3109 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
3110 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
3111 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
3112 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
3113 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
3114 [Steve Henson]
3115
3116 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
3117 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
3118 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
3119 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
3120
3121 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
3122 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
3123
3124 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
3125 be used on C++.
3126 [Steve Henson]
3127
3128 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
3129 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
3130 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
3131 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
3132 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
3133 attempting to work them out.
3134 [Steve Henson]
3135
3136 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
3137 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
3138 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
3139 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
3140 [Steve Henson]
3141
3142 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
3143 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
3144 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
3145 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
3146 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
3147 [Steve Henson]
3148
3149 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
3150 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
3151 you can do:
3152
3153 openssl sha256 foo
3154
3155 as well as:
3156
3157 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
3158
3159 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
3160
3161 [Steve Henson]
3162
3163 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
3164 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
3165
3166 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
3167 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
3168
3169 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
3170 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
3171 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
3172 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
3173 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
3174 [Steve Henson]
3175
3176 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
3177 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
3178 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
3179 [Steve Henson]
3180
3181 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
3182 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
3183 [Steve Henson]
3184
3185 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
3186 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
3187
3188 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
3189 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
3190 [Steve Henson]
3191
3192 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
3193 [Ben Laurie]
3194
3195 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
3196 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
3197 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
3198 CONF_VALUE.
3199 [Ben Laurie]
3200
3201 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
3202 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
3203 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
3204 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
3205 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
3206 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
3207 [Steve Henson]
3208
3209 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
3210 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
3211
3212 This work was sponsored by Google.
3213 [Steve Henson]
3214
3215 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
3216 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
3217 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
3218 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
3219 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
3220 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
3221 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
3222 default.
3223
3224 This work was sponsored by Google.
3225 [Steve Henson]
3226
3227 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
3228
3229 This work was sponsored by Google.
3230 [Steve Henson]
3231
3232 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
3233 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
3234 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
3235 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
3236
3237 This work was sponsored by Google.
3238 [Steve Henson]
3239
3240 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
3241 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
3242 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
3243 CRL functionality in future.
3244
3245 This work was sponsored by Google.
3246 [Steve Henson]
3247
3248 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
3249
3250 This work was sponsored by Google.
3251 [Steve Henson]
3252
3253 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
3254 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
3255
3256 This work was sponsored by Google.
3257 [Steve Henson]
3258
3259 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
3260 and URI types are currently supported.
3261
3262 This work was sponsored by Google.
3263 [Steve Henson]
3264
3265 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
3266 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
3267 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
3268 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
3269 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
3270 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
3271 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
3272 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
3273
3274 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
3275 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
3276 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
3277
3278 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
3279 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
3280 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
3281 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
3282
3283 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
3284 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
3285 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
3286 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
3287 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
3288 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
3289 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
3290 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
3291 of &errno.)
3292 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
3293
3294 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
3295 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
3296 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
3297
3298 This work was sponsored by Google.
3299 [Steve Henson]
3300
3301 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
3302 [Ben Laurie]
3303
3304 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
3305 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
3306 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
3307 [Ben Laurie]
3308
3309 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
3310 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
3311 [Nick Mathewson]
3312
3313 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
3314 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
3315 [Ben Laurie]
3316
3317 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
3318 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
3319 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
3320 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
3321 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
3322 content types and variants.
3323 [Steve Henson]
3324
3325 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
3326 [Steve Henson]
3327
3328 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
3329 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
3330 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
3331 files from the associated perl scripts.
3332 [Steve Henson]
3333
3334 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
3335 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
3336 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
3337
3338 *) s390x assembler pack.
3339 [Andy Polyakov]
3340
3341 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
3342 "family."
3343 [Andy Polyakov]
3344
3345 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
3346 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
3347 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
3348 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
3349 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
3350 to use. For example, specify an option
3351
3352 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
3353
3354 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
3355 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
3356 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
3357 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
3358 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
3359 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
3360
3361 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
3362 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
3363 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
3364 return non-zero for success.
3365
3366 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
3367 by using
3368
3369 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
3370 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
3371
3372 where
3373
3374 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
3375 void *arg;
3376
3377 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
3378 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
3379 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
3380 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
3381 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
3382 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
3383 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
3384 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
3385 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
3386
3387 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
3388 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
3389 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
3390 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
3391 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
3392 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
3393
3394 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
3395 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
3396 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
3397 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
3398 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
3399 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
3400
3401 [Bodo Moeller]
3402
3403 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
3404 MAC.
3405
3406 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
3407
3408 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3409 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3410 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3411 supported.
3412
3413 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3414 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3415 SSL_SESSION.
3416
3417 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3418 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3419 with no application modification.
3420
3421 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3422 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3423
3424 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3425 or server extensions to be examined.
3426
3427 This work was sponsored by Google.
3428 [Steve Henson]
3429
3430 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
3431 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
3432 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
3433
3434 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
3435 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
3436 ciphersuite support.
3437 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
3438
3439 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
3440 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
3441 to output in BER and PEM format.
3442 [Steve Henson]
3443
3444 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
3445 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
3446 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
3447 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
3448 -macopt options to dgst utility.
3449 [Steve Henson]
3450
3451 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
3452 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
3453 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
3454 utility.
3455 [Steve Henson]
3456
3457 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
3458 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
3459 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
3460 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
3461 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
3462 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
3463 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
3464 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
3465 enabled again.
3466
3467 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
3468 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
3469 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
3470 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
3471
3472 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
3473 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
3474 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
3475 the default order.
3476 [Bodo Moeller]
3477
3478 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
3479 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
3480 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
3481 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
3482 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
3483 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
3484 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
3485 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
3486 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
3487
3488 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
3489 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
3490 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
3491 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
3492 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
3493 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
3494 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
3495 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
3496 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
3497 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
3498 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
3499 kinds of kludges.
3500
3501 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
3502 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
3503 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
3504
3505 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
3506 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
3507 "CAMELLIA256".
3508 [Bodo Moeller]
3509
3510 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
3511 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
3512 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
3513 [Nils Larsch]
3514
3515 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
3516 it yet and it is largely untested.
3517 [Steve Henson]
3518
3519 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
3520 [Nils Larsch]
3521
3522 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
3523 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
3524 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
3525 [Steve Henson]
3526
3527 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
3528 [Andy Polyakov]
3529
3530 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
3531 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
3532 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
3533 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
3534 [Steve Henson]
3535
3536 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
3537 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
3538 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
3539 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
3540 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
3541 [Steve Henson]
3542
3543 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
3544 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
3545 [Cryptocom]
3546
3547 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
3548 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
3549 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
3550 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
3551 [Steve Henson]
3552
3553 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
3554 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
3555 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
3556 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
3557 [Steve Henson]
3558
3559 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
3560 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
3561 [Steve Henson]
3562
3563 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
3564 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
3565 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
3566 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
3567 [Steve Henson]
3568
3569 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
3570 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
3571 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
3572 [Steve Henson]
3573
3574 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
3575 utility.
3576 [Steve Henson]
3577
3578 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
3579 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
3580 [Steve Henson]
3581
3582 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
3583 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
3584 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
3585 if necessary.
3586 [Steve Henson]
3587
3588 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
3589 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
3590 to free up any added signature OIDs.
3591 [Steve Henson]
3592
3593 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
3594 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
3595 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
3596 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
3597 [Steve Henson]
3598
3599 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
3600 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
3601 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
3602 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
3603 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
3604 the array representation useful in a more general context.
3605 [Douglas Stebila]
3606
3607 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
3608 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
3609 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
3610 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
3611 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
3612
3613 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
3614 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
3615 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
3616 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
3617 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
3618 protocol).
3619
3620 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
3621 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
3622 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
3623 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
3624
3625 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
3626 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
3627 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
3628 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
3629 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
3630
3631 aECDH - ECDH cert
3632 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
3633 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
3634
3635 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
3636 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
3637
3638 [Bodo Moeller]
3639
3640 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
3641 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
3642 [Steve Henson]
3643
3644 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
3645 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
3646 [Steve Henson]
3647
3648 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
3649 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
3650 functional reference processing.
3651 [Steve Henson]
3652
3653 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
3654 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
3655 process.
3656 [Steve Henson]
3657
3658 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
3659 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
3660 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
3661 [Steve Henson]
3662
3663 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
3664 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
3665 application to support multiple signers.
3666 [Steve Henson]
3667
3668 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
3669 digest MAC.
3670 [Steve Henson]
3671
3672 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
3673 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
3674 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
3675 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
3676 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
3677 [Steve Henson]
3678
3679 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
3680 new API.
3681 [Steve Henson]
3682
3683 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
3684 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
3685 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
3686 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
3687 a no op.
3688 [Steve Henson]
3689
3690 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
3691 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
3692 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
3693 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
3694 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
3695 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
3696 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
3697 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
3698 [Steve Henson]
3699
3700 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
3701 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
3702 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
3703 between digests and public key types.
3704 [Steve Henson]
3705
3706 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
3707 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
3708 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
3709 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
3710 [Steve Henson]
3711
3712 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
3713 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
3714 key ASN1 method.
3715 [Steve Henson]
3716
3717 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
3718 [Steve Henson]
3719
3720 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
3721 pkeyutl.
3722 [Steve Henson]
3723
3724 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
3725 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
3726 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
3727 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
3728 pkey, genpkey.
3729 [Steve Henson]
3730
3731 *) BeOS support.
3732 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
3733
3734 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
3735 manual pages.
3736 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
3737
3738 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
3739 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
3740 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
3741 functionality for RSA.
3742 [Steve Henson]
3743
3744 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
3745 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
3746 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
3747 [Steve Henson]
3748
3749 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
3750 key API, doesn't do much yet.
3751 [Steve Henson]
3752
3753 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
3754 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
3755 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
3756 [Steve Henson]
3757
3758 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
3759 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
3760 [Douglas Stebila]
3761
3762 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
3763 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
3764 [Steve Henson]
3765
3766 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
3767 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
3768 type.
3769 [Steve Henson]
3770
3771 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
3772 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
3773 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
3774 structure.
3775 [Steve Henson]
3776
3777 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
3778 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
3779 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
3780 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
3781 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
3782 of public and private key structures.
3783 [Steve Henson]
3784
3785 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
3786 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
3787 [Douglas Stebila]
3788
3789 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
3790 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
3791 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
3792
3793 New ciphersuites:
3794 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
3795 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
3796
3797 New functions:
3798 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
3799 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
3800 SSL_get_psk_identity
3801 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
3802
3803 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
3804
3805 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
3806 and response verification functionality.
3807 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
3808
3809 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3810 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3811 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3812 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3813 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3814 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3815 server_name extension.
3816
3817 New functions (subject to change):
3818
3819 SSL_get_servername()
3820 SSL_get_servername_type()
3821 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3822
3823 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3824
3825 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3826 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3827 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3828 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3829 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3830
3831 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3832
3833 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3834 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3835 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3836 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3837 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
3838 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3839 option.
3840
3841 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
3842
3843 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
3844 [Andy Polyakov]
3845
3846 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
3847 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
3848 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
3849 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
3850 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
3851 [Andy Polyakov]
3852
3853 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
3854 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
3855 macro.
3856 [Bodo Moeller]
3857
3858 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
3859 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
3860 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
3861 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
3862 [Andy Polyakov]
3863
3864 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
3865 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
3866 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
3867 using the maximum available value.
3868 [Steve Henson]
3869
3870 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
3871 in addition to the text details.
3872 [Bodo Moeller]
3873
3874 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
3875 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
3876 handle several customised structures at all.
3877 [Steve Henson]
3878
3879 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
3880 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
3881 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
3882 [Steve Henson]
3883
3884 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
3885 [Steve Henson]
3886
3887 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
3888 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
3889 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
3890 [Steve Henson]
3891
3892 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
3893 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
3894 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
3895 [Nils Larsch]
3896
3897 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
3898 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
3899 all fields.
3900 [Steve Henson]
3901
3902 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
3903 [Steve Henson]
3904
3905 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
3906 [NTT]
3907
3908 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
3909
3910 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
3911 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
3912 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
3913 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
3914 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
3915 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
3916 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
3917 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
3918
3919 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
3920 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
3921 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
3922
3923 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
3924
3925 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
3926 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
3927
3928 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
3929 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
3930 [Bodo Moeller]
3931
3932 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
3933 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
3934 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
3935 [Steve Henson]
3936
3937 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
3938 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
3939 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
3940 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
3941 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
3942 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
3943 [Steve Henson]
3944
3945 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
3946 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
3947 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
3948 [Steve Henson]
3949
3950 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
3951 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
3952 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
3953 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
3954 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
3955 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
3956 CVE-2009-4355.
3957 [Steve Henson]
3958
3959 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
3960 change when encrypting or decrypting.
3961 [Bodo Moeller]
3962
3963 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
3964 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
3965 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
3966 [Steve Henson]
3967
3968 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
3969 [Steve Henson]
3970
3971 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
3972 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
3973 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
3974 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
3975 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
3976 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
3977 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
3978 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
3979 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
3980 [Steve Henson]
3981
3982 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
3983 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
3984 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
3985 [Steve Henson]
3986
3987 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
3988 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
3989 [Steve Henson]
3990
3991 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
3992 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
3993 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
3994 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
3995 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
3996 know what you are doing.
3997 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
3998
3999 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
4000 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
4001 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
4002 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
4003 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
4004 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
4005 the handshake.
4006 [Steve Henson]
4007
4008 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
4009 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
4010 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
4011 correctly.
4012 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4013
4014 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
4015 warnings in other configurations.
4016 [Steve Henson]
4017
4018 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
4019 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
4020 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
4021 systems need.
4022 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
4023
4024 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
4025 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
4026 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
4027
4028 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
4029 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
4030 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
4031 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
4032 [Steve Henson]
4033
4034 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
4035 and restored.
4036 [Steve Henson]
4037
4038 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
4039 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
4040 clash.
4041 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4042
4043 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
4044 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
4045 other than a simple chain.
4046 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
4047
4048 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
4049 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
4050 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
4051 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
4052 [Steve Henson]
4053
4054 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
4055 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
4056 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
4057 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
4058 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
4059 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
4060 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
4061 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
4062 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4063
4064 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
4065 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
4066 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
4067 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
4068 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
4069 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
4070 (CVE-2009-1377)
4071 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4072
4073 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
4074 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
4075 [Daniel Mentz]
4076
4077 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
4078 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
4079
4080 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
4081 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
4082
4083 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
4084
4085 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
4086 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
4087 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
4088 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
4089 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
4090 you're doing.
4091 [Ben Laurie]
4092
4093 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
4094
4095 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
4096 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
4097 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
4098 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
4099
4100 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
4101 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
4102 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
4103 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
4104
4105 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
4106 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
4107 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
4108 [Steve Henson]
4109
4110 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
4111 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
4112 level.
4113 [Steve Henson]
4114
4115 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
4116 to handle some structures.
4117 [Steve Henson]
4118
4119 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
4120 for a '\n'
4121 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
4122
4123 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
4124 [Matthieu Herrb]
4125
4126 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
4127 [Steve Henson]
4128
4129 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
4130 [Steve Henson]
4131
4132 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
4133 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
4134 chosen compiler.
4135 [Ben Laurie]
4136
4137 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
4138
4139 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
4140 (CVE-2008-5077).
4141 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
4142
4143 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
4144 [Ben Laurie]
4145
4146 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
4147 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
4148 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
4149 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
4150
4151 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
4152 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
4153
4154 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
4155 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
4156 [Bodo Moeller]
4157
4158 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
4159 s_client and s_server.
4160 [Ben Laurie]
4161
4162 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
4163 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
4164
4165 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
4166 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
4167
4168 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
4169 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
4170 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
4171 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
4172 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
4173 [Bodo Moeller]
4174
4175 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
4176
4177 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
4178 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
4179 [PR #1679]
4180
4181 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
4182 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
4183 [Nagendra Modadugu]
4184
4185 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
4186 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
4187 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
4188 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
4189
4190 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
4191 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
4192
4193 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
4194
4195 *) Various precautionary measures:
4196
4197 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
4198
4199 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
4200 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
4201 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
4202
4203 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
4204 outside the expected range.
4205
4206 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
4207 builds.
4208
4209 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
4210
4211 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
4212 the load fails. Useful for distros.
4213 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
4214
4215 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
4216 [Steve Henson]
4217
4218 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
4219 [Huang Ying]
4220
4221 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
4222
4223 This work was sponsored by Logica.
4224 [Steve Henson]
4225
4226 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
4227 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
4228 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
4229
4230 This work was sponsored by Logica.
4231 [Steve Henson]
4232
4233 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
4234 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
4235 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
4236 files.
4237 [Steve Henson]
4238
4239 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
4240
4241 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
4242 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
4243 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
4244 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
4245
4246 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
4247 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
4248 [Joe Orton]
4249
4250 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
4251
4252 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
4253 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
4254 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
4255
4256 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
4257
4258 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
4259 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
4260 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
4261 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
4262 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4263
4264 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
4265 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
4266 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
4267 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
4268 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
4269 invalid read after the end of 'db').
4270 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
4271
4272 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
4273
4274 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
4275 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
4276 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
4277 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
4278 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
4279
4280 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
4281 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
4282
4283 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
4284 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
4285 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
4286 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
4287 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
4288
4289 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
4290
4291 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
4292 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
4293 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
4294 sets may exist with different names.
4295 [Steve Henson]
4296
4297 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
4298 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
4299 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
4300 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
4301 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
4302 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
4303 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
4304 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
4305 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
4306 implementation.
4307 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
4308
4309 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
4310 implementation in the following ways:
4311
4312 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
4313 hard coded.
4314
4315 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
4316 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
4317 ignored for embedded content.
4318
4319 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
4320 with the enable-cms configuration option.
4321 [Steve Henson]
4322
4323 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
4324 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
4325 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
4326 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
4327
4328 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
4329 uncompresses any data passed through it.
4330 [Steve Henson]
4331
4332 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
4333 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
4334 [Steve Henson]
4335
4336 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
4337 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
4338 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
4339 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
4340 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
4341 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
4342 data.
4343 [Steve Henson]
4344
4345 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
4346 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
4347 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4348
4349 *) Netware support:
4350
4351 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
4352 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
4353 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
4354 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
4355 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
4356 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
4357 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
4358 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
4359 platform
4360 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
4361 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
4362 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
4363 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
4364 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
4365 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
4366 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
4367
4368 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
4369 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
4370 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
4371 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
4372 to s_client and s_server.
4373 [Steve Henson]
4374
4375 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
4376
4377 *) Fix various bugs:
4378 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
4379 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
4380 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
4381 + Fix ia64 assembler code
4382 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
4383
4384 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
4385
4386 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
4387 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
4388 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
4389 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
4390 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
4391 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
4392 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
4393 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
4394 [Andy Polyakov]
4395
4396 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
4397 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
4398 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
4399 Steve Henson]
4400
4401 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4402 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4403 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4404 supported.
4405
4406 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4407 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4408 SSL_SESSION.
4409
4410 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4411 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4412 with no application modification.
4413
4414 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4415 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4416
4417 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4418 or server extensions to be examined.
4419
4420 This work was sponsored by Google.
4421 [Steve Henson]
4422
4423 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4424 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4425 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4426 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4427 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4428 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4429 server_name extension.
4430
4431 New functions (subject to change):
4432
4433 SSL_get_servername()
4434 SSL_get_servername_type()
4435 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4436
4437 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4438
4439 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4440 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4441 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4442 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4443 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4444
4445 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4446
4447 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4448 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4449 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4450 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4451 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4452 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4453 option.
4454
4455 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
4456
4457 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
4458 [Steve Henson]
4459
4460 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
4461 [Andy Polyakov]
4462
4463 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
4464 (which previously caused an internal error).
4465 [Bodo Moeller]
4466
4467 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
4468 [Ben Laurie]
4469
4470 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
4471 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
4472
4473 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
4474 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
4475 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
4476
4477 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
4478 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
4479 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
4480 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
4481
4482 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
4483 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
4484 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
4485 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
4486
4487 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
4488 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
4489 information. For detailed background information, see
4490 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
4491 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
4492 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
4493 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
4494 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
4495 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
4496 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
4497 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
4498 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
4499 remove a conditional branch.
4500
4501 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
4502 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
4503 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
4504 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
4505 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
4506 remains as a deprecated alias.
4507
4508 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
4509 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
4510 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
4511 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
4512
4513 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
4514 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
4515 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
4516 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
4517 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
4518 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
4519 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
4520 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
4521
4522 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
4523
4524 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
4525 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
4526 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
4527 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
4528 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
4529 with applications using a single external cache for quite
4530 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
4531 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
4532 in a different context.
4533 [Bodo Moeller]
4534
4535 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4536 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4537 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4538 [Bodo Moeller]
4539
4540 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
4541 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
4542 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
4543
4544 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
4545
4546 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
4547 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
4548 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4549 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
4550 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
4551 [Victor Duchovni]
4552
4553 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
4554 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
4555 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
4556 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
4557 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
4558 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
4559 [Bodo Moeller]
4560
4561 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4562 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4563 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4564 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4565 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4566 [Bodo Moeller]
4567
4568 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
4569 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
4570
4571 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4572 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4573 Improve header file function name parsing.
4574 [Steve Henson]
4575
4576 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
4577 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
4578 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
4579
4580 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
4581
4582 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4583 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4584 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4585
4586 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4587 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4588
4589 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4590 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4591
4592 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4593 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4594 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4595
4596 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
4597 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
4598 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
4599 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
4600 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
4601 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
4602 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
4603 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
4604 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
4605
4606 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
4607 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
4608 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
4609 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
4610 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
4611
4612 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
4613 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
4614 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
4615 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
4616 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
4617 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
4618 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
4619 multiple values to extend the available space.
4620
4621 [Bodo Moeller]
4622
4623 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
4624
4625 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4626 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4627
4628 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
4629 [Ben Laurie]
4630
4631 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4632 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4633 undesirable limitations.
4634 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4635
4636 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
4637 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
4638 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
4639 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
4640 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
4641 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
4642 to avoid potential handshake problems.
4643 [Bodo Moeller]
4644
4645 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4646
4647 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4648 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4649 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4650
4651 The latter two were purportedly from
4652 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4653 appear there.
4654
4655 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
4656 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4657 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4658 [Bodo Moeller]
4659
4660 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
4661 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4662 [Bodo Moeller]
4663
4664 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
4665 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
4666 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
4667 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
4668
4669 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
4670 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
4671 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
4672 [NTT]
4673
4674 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
4675 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
4676 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
4677 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
4678 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
4679 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
4680 [Steve Henson]
4681
4682 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
4683
4684 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
4685 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
4686 [Steve Henson]
4687
4688 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
4689 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
4690
4691 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
4692 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
4693 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
4694 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
4695 [Douglas Stebila]
4696
4697 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
4698 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
4699 [Steve Henson]
4700
4701 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
4702 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
4703 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
4704 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
4705 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
4706 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
4707 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
4708 can't be loaded.
4709 [Steve Henson]
4710
4711 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
4712 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
4713 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
4714 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
4715 [Steve Henson]
4716
4717 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
4718 under VC++ build system.
4719 [Steve Henson]
4720
4721 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
4722 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
4723 [Richard Levitte]
4724
4725 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
4726
4727 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4728 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4729 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4730 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4731 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4732
4733 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4734 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4735 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4736
4737 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
4738 [Steve Henson]
4739
4740 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
4741 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
4742 [Nils Larsch]
4743
4744 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
4745 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
4746
4747 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
4748 [Nick Mathewson]
4749
4750 *) Extended Windows CE support.
4751 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
4752
4753 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
4754 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
4755 [Steve Henson]
4756
4757 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
4758 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
4759 smime utility.
4760 [Steve Henson]
4761
4762 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
4763
4764 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4765 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4766
4767 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
4768 [Richard Levitte]
4769
4770 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
4771 key into the same file any more.
4772 [Richard Levitte]
4773
4774 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
4775 [Andy Polyakov]
4776
4777 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
4778 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
4779
4780 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
4781 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
4782 [Richard Levitte]
4783
4784 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
4785 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
4786 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
4787 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
4788 this only applies when building 'shared'.
4789 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
4790
4791 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
4792 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
4793 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
4794 [Steve Henson]
4795
4796 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
4797 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
4798 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
4799 - add new function for parameter creation
4800 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
4801 BN_BLINDING parameters
4802 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
4803 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
4804 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
4805 threads.
4806 [Nils Larsch]
4807
4808 *) Add support for DTLS.
4809 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
4810
4811 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
4812 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
4813 [Walter Goulet]
4814
4815 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
4816 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
4817 [Nils Larsch]
4818
4819 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
4820 the apps/openssl applications.
4821 [Nils Larsch]
4822
4823 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
4824 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
4825 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
4826 [Ben Laurie]
4827
4828 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
4829 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
4830
4831 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
4832 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
4833
4834 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
4835 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
4836 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
4837 avoid this algorithm.)
4838
4839 [Bodo Moeller]
4840
4841 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
4842 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
4843 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
4844 [Richard Levitte]
4845
4846 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
4847 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
4848 [Andy Polyakov]
4849
4850 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
4851 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
4852 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
4853 pod file:
4854
4855 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
4856
4857 The blank line is mandatory.
4858
4859 [Steve Henson]
4860
4861 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
4862 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
4863 sources.
4864 [Steve Henson]
4865
4866 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
4867 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
4868
4869 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
4870 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
4871 to support policy checking and print out.
4872 [Steve Henson]
4873
4874 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
4875 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
4876 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
4877 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
4878
4879 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
4880 [Geoff Thorpe]
4881
4882 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
4883 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
4884
4885 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
4886 implementation contributed by IBM.
4887 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
4888
4889 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
4890 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
4891 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
4892 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
4893
4894 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
4895 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
4896
4897 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
4898 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
4899 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
4900 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
4901 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
4902 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
4903 [Steve Henson]
4904
4905 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
4906 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
4907 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
4908 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
4909 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
4910 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
4911 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
4912 [Geoff Thorpe]
4913
4914 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
4915 [Steve Henson]
4916
4917 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
4918 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
4919 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
4920 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
4921 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
4922 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
4923 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
4924 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
4925 [Steve Henson]
4926
4927 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
4928 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
4929 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
4930 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
4931 [Steve Henson]
4932
4933 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
4934 syntax:
4935
4936 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
4937 [Steve Henson]
4938
4939 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
4940 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
4941 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
4942 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
4943 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
4944 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
4945 BN_CTX's "bundling".
4946 [Geoff Thorpe]
4947
4948 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
4949 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
4950 [Geoff Thorpe]
4951
4952 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
4953 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
4954 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
4955 [Steve Henson]
4956
4957 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
4958 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
4959 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
4960 below).
4961 [Geoff Thorpe]
4962
4963 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
4964 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
4965 [Richard Levitte]
4966
4967 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
4968 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
4969 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
4970 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
4971 [Geoff Thorpe]
4972
4973 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
4974 initialised value as BN_new().
4975 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
4976
4977 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
4978 [Steve Henson]
4979
4980 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
4981 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
4982 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
4983 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
4984 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
4985 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
4986 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
4987 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
4988 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
4989 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
4990 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
4991 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
4992 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
4993 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
4994 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
4995
4996 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
4997 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
4998 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
4999 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
5000 [Geoff Thorpe]
5001
5002 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
5003 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
5004 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
5005 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
5006 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
5007 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
5008 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
5009 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
5010 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
5011 [Geoff Thorpe]
5012
5013 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
5014 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
5015 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
5016 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
5017 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
5018 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
5019 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
5020 [Geoff Thorpe]
5021
5022 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
5023 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
5024 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
5025 these have been updated also.
5026 [Geoff Thorpe]
5027
5028 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
5029 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
5030 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
5031 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
5032 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
5033 functions.
5034 [Steve Henson]
5035
5036 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
5037 structure of type "other".
5038 [Steve Henson]
5039
5040 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
5041 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
5042 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
5043 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
5044 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
5045 situation in the script.
5046 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5047
5048 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5049 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
5050 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
5051 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
5052 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
5053 used as premaster secret.
5054 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5055
5056 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
5057 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
5058 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5059
5060 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
5061 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
5062
5063 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
5064 control of the error stack.
5065 [Richard Levitte]
5066
5067 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
5068 [Richard Levitte]
5069
5070 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
5071 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
5072 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
5073 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
5074 [Richard Levitte]
5075
5076 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
5077 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
5078 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
5079 [Richard Levitte]
5080
5081 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
5082 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
5083 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
5084 a memory area.
5085 [Richard Levitte]
5086
5087 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
5088 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
5089 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
5090 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
5091 [Richard Levitte]
5092
5093 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
5094 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
5095 the following flags are defined:
5096
5097 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
5098 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
5099 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
5100 number.
5101
5102 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
5103 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
5104 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
5105 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
5106 returns zero.
5107 [Richard Levitte]
5108
5109 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
5110 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
5111 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
5112 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
5113 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
5114 [Richard Levitte]
5115
5116 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
5117 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
5118 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
5119 [Richard Levitte]
5120
5121 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
5122 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
5123 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
5124 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
5125 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
5126 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
5127 [Richard Levitte]
5128
5129 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
5130 req and dirName.
5131 [Steve Henson]
5132
5133 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
5134 [Steve Henson]
5135
5136 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
5137 [Steve Henson]
5138
5139 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
5140 [Steve Henson]
5141
5142 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
5143 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
5144 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
5145 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
5146 default implementation more easily.
5147 [Geoff Thorpe]
5148
5149 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
5150 in config files.
5151 [Steve Henson]
5152
5153 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
5154 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
5155 [Richard Levitte]
5156
5157 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
5158 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
5159 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
5160 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
5161
5162 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
5163 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
5164 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
5165 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
5166 [Steve Henson]
5167
5168 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
5169 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
5170 to do it.
5171 [Richard Levitte]
5172
5173 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
5174 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
5175 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
5176 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
5177 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
5178 scalar * generator).
5179 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
5180
5181 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
5182 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
5183 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
5184 correctly.
5185 [Steve Henson]
5186
5187 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
5188 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
5189 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
5190 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
5191 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
5192 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
5193 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
5194 linker additions, eg;
5195 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
5196 [Geoff Thorpe]
5197
5198 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
5199 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
5200 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
5201 [Geoff Thorpe]
5202
5203 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
5204 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
5205 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
5206 via PR#459)
5207 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5208
5209 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
5210 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
5211 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
5212 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
5213 [Geoff Thorpe]
5214
5215 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
5216 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
5217 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
5218 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
5219 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
5220 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
5221 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
5222 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
5223 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
5224 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
5225
5226 Example for using the new callback interface:
5227
5228 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
5229 void *my_arg = ...;
5230 BN_GENCB my_cb;
5231
5232 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
5233
5234 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
5235 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
5236 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
5237 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
5238 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
5239 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
5240 */
5241
5242 [Geoff Thorpe]
5243
5244 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
5245 available to TLS with the number defined in
5246 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
5247 [Richard Levitte]
5248
5249 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
5250 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
5251
5252 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
5253 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
5254 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
5255 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
5256
5257 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
5258 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
5259
5260 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
5261 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
5262 well.
5263 [Richard Levitte]
5264
5265 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
5266 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
5267 [Richard Levitte]
5268
5269 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
5270 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
5271 and a macro that behave like
5272 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
5273
5274 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
5275 [Nils Larsch]
5276
5277 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
5278 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
5279 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
5280 if applicable.
5281 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5282
5283 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
5284 [Bodo Moeller]
5285
5286 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
5287 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
5288 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
5289 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
5290 directory engines/.
5291 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
5292 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
5293 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
5294 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
5295 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
5296 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
5297 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
5298 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
5299
5300 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
5301 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
5302 [Richard Levitte]
5303
5304 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
5305 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
5306
5307 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
5308 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
5309 files while avoiding the low level API.
5310
5311 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
5312 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
5313 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
5314 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
5315
5316 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
5317 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
5318 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
5319 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
5320 instead of the low level API.
5321 [Steve Henson]
5322
5323 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
5324 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
5325 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
5326 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
5327 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
5328 PKCS#7 code.
5329
5330 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
5331 down to the template encoder.
5332 [Steve Henson]
5333
5334 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
5335 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
5336 [Bodo Moeller]
5337
5338 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
5339 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
5340 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
5341 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5342
5343 *) Add ECDH engine support.
5344 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5345
5346 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
5347 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5348
5349 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
5350 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
5351 [Bodo Moeller]
5352
5353 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
5354 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
5355 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
5356 [Bodo Moeller]
5357
5358 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
5359 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
5360
5361 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5362 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5363
5364 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
5365 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
5366 New EC_METHOD:
5367
5368 EC_GF2m_simple_method
5369
5370 New API functions:
5371
5372 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
5373 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
5374 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
5375 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
5376 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
5377 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
5378
5379 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
5380 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
5381 enable it).
5382
5383 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
5384 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
5385 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
5386 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
5387 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
5388 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
5389 various internal method names.)
5390
5391 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
5392 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
5393
5394 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5395 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5396
5397 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
5398 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
5399
5400 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
5401 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
5402 methods are undefined.
5403
5404 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5405 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5406
5407 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
5408 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
5409 length of the modulus.
5410
5411 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5412 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5413
5414 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
5415 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
5416
5417 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5418 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5419
5420 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
5421 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
5422 used) in the following functions [macros]:
5423
5424 BN_GF2m_add
5425 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
5426 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
5427 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
5428 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
5429 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
5430 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
5431 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
5432 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
5433 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
5434
5435 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
5436 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
5437
5438 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
5439 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
5440 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
5441 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
5442 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
5443 where
5444 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
5445 This applies to the following functions:
5446
5447 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
5448 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
5449 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
5450 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
5451 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
5452 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
5453 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
5454 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
5455 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
5456 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
5457
5458 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
5459
5460 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
5461 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
5462
5463 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
5464
5465 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
5466 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
5467 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
5468 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
5469 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
5470
5471 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
5472 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5473
5474 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
5475 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
5476 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
5477
5478 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
5479 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
5480
5481 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
5482 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
5483 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
5484 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
5485 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5486
5487 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
5488 functions
5489 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
5490 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
5491 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
5492 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
5493 These control ASN1 encoding details:
5494 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
5495 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
5496 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
5497 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
5498 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
5499 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
5500 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
5501
5502 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
5503 functions
5504 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
5505 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
5506 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
5507 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
5508 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5509
5510 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
5511 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
5512 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
5513 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5514
5515 *) Add functions
5516 EC_POINT_point2bn()
5517 EC_POINT_bn2point()
5518 EC_POINT_point2hex()
5519 EC_POINT_hex2point()
5520 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
5521 EC_POINT_oct2point().
5522 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5523
5524 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
5525 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
5526 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
5527 EC_GROUP_get_order()
5528 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
5529 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
5530 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
5531 adding different types of curves.
5532 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
5533
5534 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
5535 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
5536 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
5537 [Bodo Moeller]
5538
5539 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
5540 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
5541
5542 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
5543 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
5544 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
5545 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5546
5547 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
5548
5549 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
5550 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
5551
5552 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
5553 library. Most notably,
5554 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
5555 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
5556 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
5557 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
5558 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
5559 extracted before the specific public key;
5560 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
5561 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5562
5563 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
5564 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
5565 function
5566 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
5567 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
5568 EC_get_builtin_curves().
5569 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
5570 accessed via
5571 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
5572 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
5573 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
5574
5575 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5576 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5577 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5578 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5579 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5580 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5581 differing sizes.
5582 [Richard Levitte]
5583
5584 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
5585
5586 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
5587 sensitive data.
5588 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
5589
5590 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5591 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5592 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5593 [Bodo Moeller]
5594
5595 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
5596 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5597 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
5598 [Victor Duchovni]
5599
5600 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
5601 [Steve Henson]
5602
5603 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
5604 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
5605 [Steve Henson]
5606
5607 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
5608 run algorithm test programs.
5609 [Steve Henson]
5610
5611 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
5612 [Steve Henson]
5613
5614 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5615 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5616 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5617 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5618 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5619 [Bodo Moeller]
5620
5621 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5622 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5623 [Steve Henson]
5624
5625 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
5626
5627 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5628 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5629 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5630
5631 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5632 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5633
5634 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5635 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5636
5637 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5638 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5639 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5640
5641 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
5642 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
5643 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
5644 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
5645 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
5646 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
5647 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
5648 [Bodo Moeller]
5649
5650 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
5651
5652 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5653 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5654
5655 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5656 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5657 undesirable limitations.
5658 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5659
5660 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5661
5662 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5663 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5664 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5665
5666 The latter two were purportedly from
5667 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5668 appear there.
5669
5670 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
5671 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5672 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5673 [Bodo Moeller]
5674
5675 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5676 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5677 [Bodo Moeller]
5678
5679 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
5680
5681 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
5682 module in FIPS mode.
5683 [Steve Henson]
5684
5685 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
5686 [Steve Henson]
5687
5688 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
5689 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
5690 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
5691 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
5692 [Steve Henson]
5693
5694 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
5695
5696 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
5697 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
5698 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
5699 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
5700 the difference induced by this change.
5701 [Andy Polyakov]
5702
5703 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
5704
5705 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5706 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5707 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5708 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5709 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5710
5711 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5712 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5713 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5714
5715 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
5716 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
5717 [Steve Henson]
5718
5719 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
5720 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
5721 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
5722 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
5723 biased k.)
5724 [Bodo Moeller]
5725
5726 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
5727 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
5728 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
5729 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
5730 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
5731
5732 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
5733 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
5734 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
5735 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
5736 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
5737 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
5738
5739 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
5740
5741 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
5742 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
5743 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
5744 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
5745 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
5746 [Bodo Moeller]
5747
5748 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
5749 clients need.
5750 [Steve Henson]
5751
5752 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
5753 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
5754 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
5755 [Steve Henson]
5756
5757 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
5758 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
5759 structures constant.
5760 [Steve Henson]
5761
5762 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
5763
5764 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5765 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5766
5767 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
5768 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
5769 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
5770 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
5771 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
5772 some needed definitions.
5773 [Steve Henson]
5774
5775 *) Undo Cygwin change.
5776 [Ulf Möller]
5777
5778 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
5779 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
5780 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
5781 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
5782 [Richard Levitte]
5783
5784 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
5785
5786 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
5787 server and client random values. Previously
5788 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
5789 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
5790
5791 This change has negligible security impact because:
5792
5793 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
5794 data.
5795
5796 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
5797 handshake.
5798
5799 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
5800 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
5801 values.
5802
5803 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
5804 to our attention.
5805
5806 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
5807
5808 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
5809 [Ulf Möller]
5810
5811 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
5812 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
5813 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
5814
5815 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
5816 [Steve Henson]
5817
5818 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
5819 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
5820 [Andy Polyakov]
5821
5822 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
5823 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
5824 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
5825
5826 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
5827 [Steve Henson]
5828
5829 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
5830 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
5831 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
5832 certificates.
5833 [Steve Henson]
5834
5835 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
5836 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
5837 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
5838 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
5839
5840 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
5841 has chosen to ignore this fault)
5842 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
5843 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
5844 been given)
5845 [Richard Levitte]
5846
5847 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
5848
5849 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
5850 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
5851 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
5852 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
5853 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
5854 [Steve Henson]
5855
5856 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
5857 [Steve Henson]
5858
5859 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
5860 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
5861
5862 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
5863 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
5864 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
5865 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
5866 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
5867 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
5868 rather than being initialized to 1.
5869 [Steve Henson]
5870
5871 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
5872
5873 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5874 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5875 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5876
5877 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
5878 (CVE-2004-0112)
5879 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5880
5881 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
5882 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
5883 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
5884 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
5885 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
5886 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
5887 [Richard Levitte]
5888
5889 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
5890 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
5891 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
5892 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
5893 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
5894 for these cases.
5895 [Steve Henson]
5896
5897 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
5898 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
5899 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
5900 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
5901 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
5902 [Steve Henson]
5903
5904 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
5905 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
5906 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
5907 < 0.9.7.
5908 [Steve Henson]
5909
5910 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
5911 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5912
5913 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
5914 [Steve Henson]
5915
5916 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
5917
5918 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5919
5920 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
5921 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
5922
5923 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
5924
5925 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5926 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
5927
5928 [Steve Henson]
5929
5930 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
5931 exiting on the first error in a request.
5932 [Steve Henson]
5933
5934 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5935 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5936 specifications.
5937 [Steve Henson]
5938
5939 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5940 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5941 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
5942 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
5943
5944 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
5945 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5946 [Richard Levitte]
5947
5948 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
5949 blocks during encryption.
5950 [Richard Levitte]
5951
5952 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
5953 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
5954 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
5955 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
5956 certain size.
5957 [Steve Henson]
5958
5959 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
5960 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
5961 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
5962 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
5963 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
5964 parser.
5965 [Steve Henson]
5966
5967 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
5968
5969 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5970 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5971 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5972 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5973 [Bodo Moeller]
5974
5975 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5976 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5977 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5978 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5979 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5980
5981 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5982 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5983 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5984 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5985 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5986 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5987 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5988 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5989 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5990 [Bodo Moeller]
5991
5992 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
5993 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
5994 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
5995 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
5996 [Geoff Thorpe]
5997
5998 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
5999 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
6000 [Ulf Moeller]
6001
6002 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
6003
6004 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6005 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
6006 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6007 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6008 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6009
6010 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6011 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6012 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6013
6014 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
6015 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
6016 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
6017 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
6018 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
6019
6020 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
6021 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
6022 used by default when no-err is given.
6023 [Richard Levitte]
6024
6025 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
6026 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
6027
6028 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
6029 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
6030 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
6031 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
6032 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
6033
6034 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
6035 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
6036 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
6037 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
6038
6039 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
6040
6041 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
6042
6043 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
6044
6045 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
6046 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
6047 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
6048 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
6049 root is omitted).
6050 [Steve Henson]
6051
6052 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
6053 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
6054
6055 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
6056 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
6057 [Steve Henson]
6058
6059 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6060 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6061 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
6062 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
6063 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6064
6065 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
6066 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
6067 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
6068 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
6069 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
6070 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
6071 followup to PR #377.
6072 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6073
6074 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
6075 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
6076 [Andy Polyakov]
6077
6078 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
6079 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
6080 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
6081 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
6082
6083 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
6084
6085 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
6086 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
6087
6088 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
6089 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
6090 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
6091 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
6092 client and server.
6093 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
6094 PR #377.
6095 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6096
6097 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
6098 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
6099 removed entirely.
6100 [Richard Levitte]
6101
6102 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
6103 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
6104 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
6105 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
6106 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
6107 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
6108 of libcrypto.
6109 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
6110 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
6111 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
6112 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
6113 have to be made anyway).
6114 [Richard Levitte]
6115
6116 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
6117 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
6118 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
6119 [Steve Henson]
6120
6121 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
6122 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
6123 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
6124 [Richard Levitte]
6125
6126 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
6127 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
6128 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
6129
6130 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
6131 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
6132 edit numbers of the version.
6133 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6134
6135 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
6136 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
6137 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
6138
6139 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
6140 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6141
6142 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
6143 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
6144 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6145
6146 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
6147 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6148
6149 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
6150 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6151
6152 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
6153 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6154
6155 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
6156 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6157
6158 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
6159 overflows.
6160 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6161
6162 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
6163 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
6164 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6165
6166 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
6167 representations in a platform independent manner.
6168 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6169
6170 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
6171 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
6172 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6173
6174 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
6175 indents.
6176 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6177
6178 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
6179 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6180
6181 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
6182 full. Fixed.
6183 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6184
6185 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
6186 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
6187 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6188
6189 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
6190 unconditionally).
6191 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6192
6193 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
6194 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6195
6196 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
6197 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6198
6199 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
6200 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6201
6202 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
6203 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6204
6205 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
6206 CBCParameter.
6207 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6208
6209 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
6210 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6211
6212 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
6213 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6214
6215 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
6216 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
6217 exploitable.
6218 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6219
6220 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
6221 the 0.9.6 release series:
6222
6223 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6224 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
6225 (CVE-2002-0657)
6226 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6227
6228 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
6229 [Richard Levitte]
6230
6231 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
6232 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
6233
6234 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
6235 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
6236
6237 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
6238 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
6239 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
6240 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
6241
6242 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
6243 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
6244 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
6245
6246 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
6247 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
6248 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
6249 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6250
6251 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
6252 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
6253 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
6254 some local tweaks:
6255
6256 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
6257 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
6258 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
6259 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
6260 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
6261 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
6262 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
6263 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
6264 done
6265
6266 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
6267 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
6268 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
6269 [Richard Levitte]
6270
6271 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
6272 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
6273 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
6274 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
6275 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
6276
6277 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
6278 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
6279
6280 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
6281 error in AES-CFB decryption.
6282 [Richard Levitte]
6283
6284 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
6285 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
6286 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
6287 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
6288 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
6289 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
6290 [Steve Henson]
6291
6292 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
6293 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
6294 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
6295 [Steve Henson]
6296
6297 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
6298 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
6299 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6300
6301 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
6302 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
6303 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
6304 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
6305 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
6306 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
6307 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
6308 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6309
6310 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
6311 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
6312 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
6313 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
6314 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
6315 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
6316 [Steve Henson]
6317
6318 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
6319 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
6320 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
6321 declaration has been changed from
6322 int (*cb)()
6323 into
6324 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
6325 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
6326 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
6327 has been changed into
6328 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
6329
6330 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
6331 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
6332 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
6333
6334 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
6335 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
6336
6337 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
6338 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
6339 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
6340 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
6341 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
6342 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
6343 always load it have also been added.
6344 [Steve Henson]
6345
6346 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
6347 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
6348 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
6349
6350 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
6351
6352 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
6353 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
6354 because it couldn't be used for anything.
6355
6356 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
6357 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
6358 command line option can be used to specify an
6359 alternative file.
6360 [Steve Henson]
6361
6362 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
6363 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
6364 [Steve Henson]
6365
6366 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
6367 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
6368 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
6369 [Steve Henson]
6370
6371 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
6372 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6373 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
6374 to work with the new engine framework.
6375 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
6376
6377 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
6378 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6379 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
6380 to work with the new engine framework.
6381 [Richard Levitte]
6382
6383 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
6384 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
6385 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
6386
6387 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
6388 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
6389
6390 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
6391 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
6392 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
6393 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
6394 FORMAT_IISSGC.
6395 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6396
6397 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6398 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6399
6400 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
6401 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
6402
6403 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
6404 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
6405 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
6406 [Ben Laurie]
6407
6408 *) Add new functions
6409 ERR_peek_last_error
6410 ERR_peek_last_error_line
6411 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
6412 These are similar to
6413 ERR_peek_error
6414 ERR_peek_error_line
6415 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
6416 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
6417 still in the error queue.
6418 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
6419
6420 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
6421 like:
6422 default_algorithms = ALL
6423 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
6424 [Steve Henson]
6425
6426 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
6427 [Steve Henson]
6428
6429 *) New experimental application configuration code.
6430 [Steve Henson]
6431
6432 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
6433 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
6434 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
6435 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
6436
6437 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
6438 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
6439
6440 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
6441 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
6442
6443 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
6444 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
6445 [Bodo Moeller]
6446
6447 *) New functions/macros
6448
6449 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
6450 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
6451 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
6452 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
6453
6454 to request calling a callback function
6455
6456 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
6457 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
6458
6459 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
6460 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
6461 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
6462 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
6463 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
6464 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
6465 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
6466 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
6467 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
6468 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
6469
6470 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
6471 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
6472 [Bodo Moeller]
6473
6474 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
6475 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
6476 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
6477 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
6478 the configuration scripts.
6479
6480 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
6481 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
6482 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
6483
6484 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
6485 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6486
6487 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
6488 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
6489 when reusing an existing buffer.
6490 [Bodo Moeller]
6491
6492 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
6493 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
6494 [Steve Henson]
6495
6496 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
6497 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
6498 [Ben Laurie]
6499
6500 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
6501 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
6502 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
6503 has the same effect.
6504 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
6505
6506 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
6507 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
6508 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
6509 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
6510 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
6511 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
6512 exception.
6513
6514 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
6515 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
6516 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
6517 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
6518
6519 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
6520 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
6521 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
6522 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
6523
6524 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
6525 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
6526 won't work.
6527
6528 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
6529 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
6530 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
6531 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
6532 default), and then completely removed.
6533 [Richard Levitte]
6534
6535 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
6536 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
6537 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
6538 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
6539 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
6540 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
6541 particular extension is supported.
6542 [Steve Henson]
6543
6544 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
6545 to retain compatibility with existing code.
6546 [Steve Henson]
6547
6548 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
6549 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
6550 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
6551 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
6552 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
6553 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
6554 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
6555 requires the destination to be valid.
6556
6557 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
6558 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
6559 [Steve Henson]
6560
6561 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
6562 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
6563 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
6564 [Bodo Moeller]
6565
6566 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
6567 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
6568
6569 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
6570 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
6571 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
6572 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
6573 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
6574 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
6575 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
6576 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
6577 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
6578 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
6579 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
6580 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
6581 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
6582 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
6583 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
6584 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
6585 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
6586 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
6587 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
6588 the new code.
6589 [Geoff Thorpe]
6590
6591 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
6592 [Steve Henson]
6593
6594 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
6595 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
6596 become part of libeay.num as well.
6597 [Richard Levitte]
6598
6599 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
6600 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
6601 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
6602 false once a handshake has been completed.
6603 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
6604 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
6605 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
6606 client has followed the request.)
6607 [Bodo Moeller]
6608
6609 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
6610 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
6611 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
6612 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
6613
6614 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
6615 more bits available for options that should not be part of
6616 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
6617 [Bodo Moeller]
6618
6619 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
6620 [Steve Henson]
6621
6622 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
6623 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
6624 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
6625 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6626
6627 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
6628 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6629 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6630
6631 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
6632 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
6633 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
6634 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
6635 [Geoff Thorpe]
6636
6637 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
6638 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
6639 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
6640 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
6641 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
6642 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
6643 [Geoff Thorpe]
6644
6645 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
6646 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
6647 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
6648 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
6649 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
6650 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
6651 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
6652 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
6653 [Geoff Thorpe]
6654
6655 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
6656 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
6657 [Geoff Thorpe]
6658
6659 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
6660 [Ben Laurie]
6661
6662 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
6663 md_data void pointer.
6664 [Ben Laurie]
6665
6666 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
6667 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
6668 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
6669 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
6670 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
6671 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
6672 [Ben Laurie]
6673
6674 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
6675 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
6676 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
6677 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
6678 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
6679 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
6680 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
6681 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
6682 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
6683 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
6684 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
6685 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
6686 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
6687 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
6688 rather than letting it slide.
6689
6690 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
6691 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
6692 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
6693 [Geoff Thorpe]
6694
6695 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
6696 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
6697 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
6698 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
6699 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
6700 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
6701 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
6702 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
6703 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
6704 [Geoff Thorpe]
6705
6706 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
6707 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
6708 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
6709 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
6710 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
6711
6712 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
6713 [Geoff Thorpe]
6714
6715 *) Add EVP test program.
6716 [Ben Laurie]
6717
6718 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
6719 [Ben Laurie]
6720
6721 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
6722 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
6723 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
6724 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
6725 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
6726 [Steve Henson]
6727
6728 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
6729 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
6730 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
6731 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
6732 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
6733 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
6734 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
6735
6736 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
6737 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
6738 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
6739 Usage example:
6740
6741 EVP_MD_CTX md;
6742
6743 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
6744 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
6745 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
6746 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
6747 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
6748
6749 [Ben Laurie]
6750
6751 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
6752 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
6753 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
6754 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
6755 anyway): E.g.,
6756
6757 des_key_schedule ks;
6758
6759 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
6760 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
6761
6762 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
6763 [Ben Laurie]
6764
6765 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
6766 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
6767 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
6768 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
6769 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
6770 functions prevents this.
6771 [Steve Henson]
6772
6773 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
6774 [Ben Laurie]
6775
6776 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
6777 correct _ecb suffix.
6778 [Ben Laurie]
6779
6780 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
6781 revocation information is handled using the text based index
6782 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
6783 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
6784 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
6785 [Steve Henson]
6786
6787 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
6788 [Richard Levitte]
6789
6790 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
6791 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
6792 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
6793 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
6794
6795 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
6796 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
6797
6798 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
6799 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6800 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
6801 via Richard Levitte]
6802
6803 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
6804 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
6805 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
6806 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
6807 [Geoff Thorpe]
6808
6809 *) Speed up EVP routines.

6825 [Ben Laurie]
6826
6827 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
6828 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
6829
6830 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
6831 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
6832 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
6833 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
6834 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
6835 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
6836 [Steve Henson]
6837
6838 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
6839 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
6840 [Richard Levitte]
6841
6842 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
6843 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
6844 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
6845 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
6846
6847 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
6848 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
6849 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
6850 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
6851 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
6852 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
6853 callback.
6854 [Richard Levitte]
6855
6856 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
6857 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
6858 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
6859 and interrupts/cancellations.
6860 [Richard Levitte]
6861
6862 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
6863 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
6864 [Steve Henson]
6865
6866 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
6867 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
6868 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
6869
6870 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
6871 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
6872 kind of callback.
6873 [Richard Levitte]
6874
6875 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
6876 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
6877 than this minimum value is recommended.
6878 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6879
6880 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
6881 that are easily reachable.
6882 [Richard Levitte]
6883
6884 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
6885 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
6886
6887 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
6888
6889 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
6890 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
6891 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
6892 needed for static libraries under Win32.
6893 [Steve Henson]
6894
6895 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
6896 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
6897 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
6898 [Steve Henson]
6899
6900 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
6901 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
6902 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
6903 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
6904 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
6905 internally such as S/MIME.
6906
6907 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
6908 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
6909 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
6910
6911 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
6912 applications.
6913 [Steve Henson]
6914
6915 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
6916 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
6917 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
6918 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
6919
6920 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
6921
6922 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
6923
6924 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
6925 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
6926 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
6927 handling.
6928 [Steve Henson]
6929
6930 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
6931 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
6932 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
6933 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
6934 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
6935 a window system and the like.
6936 [Richard Levitte]
6937
6938 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
6939 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
6940 [Geoff]
6941
6942 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
6943 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
6944 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
6945 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
6946 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
6947 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
6948 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
6949 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
6950 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
6951 ENGINE structure.
6952 [Geoff]
6953
6954 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
6955 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
6956 tag cache.
6957 [Steve Henson]
6958
6959 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
6960 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
6961 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
6962 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
6963 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
6964 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
6965 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
6966 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
6967 [Geoff]
6968
6969 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
6970 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
6971 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
6972 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
6973 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
6974 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
6975 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
6976 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
6977 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
6978 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
6979 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
6980 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
6981 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
6982 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
6983 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
6984 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
6985 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
6986 [Geoff]
6987
6988 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
6989 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
6990 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
6991 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
6992 internal engine_int.h header.
6993 [Geoff]
6994
6995 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
6996 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
6997 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
6998 modify their own ones).
6999 [Geoff]
7000
7001 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
7002 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
7003 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
7004 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
7005 later on via ctrl() commands.
7006 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
7007 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
7008 structural references.
7009 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
7010 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
7011 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
7012 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
7013 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
7014 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
7015 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
7016 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
7017 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
7018 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
7019 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
7020 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
7021 [Geoff]
7022
7023 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
7024 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
7025 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
7026 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
7027 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
7028 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
7029 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
7030 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
7031 [Bodo Moeller]
7032
7033 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
7034 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
7035 [Steve Henson]
7036
7037 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
7038 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
7039 [Steve Henson]
7040
7041 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
7042 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
7043 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
7044 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
7045 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
7046 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
7047 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
7048 [Steve Henson]
7049
7050 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
7051 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
7052 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
7053 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
7054 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
7055
7056 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
7057 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
7058 generator).
7059 [Bodo Moeller]
7060
7061 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
7062
7063 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
7064 operations and provides various method functions that can also
7065 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
7066
7067 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
7068 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
7069
7070 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
7071 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
7072 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
7073
7074 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
7075 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
7076
7077 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
7078 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
7079
7080 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
7081
7082 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
7083 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
7084 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
7085 [Bodo Moeller]
7086
7087 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
7088 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
7089 [Richard Levitte]
7090
7091 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
7092 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
7093 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
7094 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
7095 is 40 of more characters long.
7096 [Steve Henson]
7097
7098 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
7099 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
7100 pointers.
7101 [Steve Henson]
7102
7103 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
7104 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
7105 [Bodo Moeller]
7106
7107 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
7108 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
7109 might.
7110 [Steve Henson]
7111
7112 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
7113
7114 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
7115 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
7116
7117 ASN1 error codes
7118 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
7119 ...
7120 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
7121 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
7122 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
7123 ...
7124 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
7125 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
7126
7127 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
7128 [Bodo Moeller]
7129
7130 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
7131 suffices.
7132 [Bodo Moeller]
7133
7134 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
7135 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
7136 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
7137 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
7138 and
7139 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
7140
7141 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
7142 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
7143
7144 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
7145 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
7146 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
7147 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
7148 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
7149 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
7150
7151 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
7152 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
7153
7154 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
7155 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
7156
7157 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
7158 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
7159
7160 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
7161 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
7162 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
7163 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
7164
7165 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
7166 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
7167
7168 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
7169 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
7170
7171 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
7172 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
7173 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
7174 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
7175 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
7176 [Richard Levitte]
7177
7178 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
7179 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
7180 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
7181 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
7182 [Steve Henson]
7183
7184 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
7185 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
7186 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
7187 trust settings.
7188 [Steve Henson]
7189
7190 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
7191 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
7192 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
7193 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
7194 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
7195 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
7196 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
7197 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
7198 ocsp utility.
7199 [Steve Henson]
7200
7201 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
7202 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
7203 [Steve Henson]
7204
7205 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
7206 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
7207 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
7208 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
7209 [Steve Henson]
7210
7211 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
7212 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
7213 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
7214 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
7215 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
7216 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
7217 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
7218 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
7219 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
7220 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
7221 [Steve Henson]
7222
7223 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
7224 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
7225 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
7226 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
7227 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
7228 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
7229 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
7230 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
7231
7232 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
7233 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
7234 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
7235 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
7236 [Richard Levitte]
7237
7238 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
7239 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
7240 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
7241 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
7242 opensslconf.h.
7243 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
7244 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
7245 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
7246 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
7247 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
7248 what is available.
7249 [Richard Levitte]
7250
7251 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
7252 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
7253 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
7254 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
7255 auto incremented.
7256 [Steve Henson]
7257
7258 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
7259 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
7260 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
7261 [Steve Henson]
7262
7263 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
7264 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
7265 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
7266 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
7267 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
7268 [Steve Henson]
7269
7270 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
7271 [Steve Henson]
7272
7273 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
7274 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
7275 option to ocsp utility.
7276 [Steve Henson]
7277
7278 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
7279 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
7280 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
7281 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
7282 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
7283 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
7284 the request is nonce-less.
7285 [Steve Henson]
7286
7287 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
7288 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
7289 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
7290 [Bodo Moeller]
7291
7292 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
7293 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
7294 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
7295 [Steve Henson]
7296
7297 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
7298 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
7299 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
7300 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
7301 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
7302 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7303
7304 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
7305 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
7306 appear to exist.
7307 [Steve Henson]
7308
7309 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
7310 additional certificates supplied.
7311 [Steve Henson]
7312
7313 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
7314 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
7315 signature against.
7316 [Richard Levitte]
7317
7318 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
7319 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
7320 AES OIDs.
7321
7322 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
7323 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
7324 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
7325 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
7326 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
7327 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
7328 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
7329 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
7330 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
7331
7332 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
7333 request to response.
7334 [Steve Henson]
7335
7336 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
7337 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
7338 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
7339 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
7340 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
7341 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
7342 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
7343 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
7344 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
7345 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
7346 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
7347 [Steve Henson]
7348
7349 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
7350 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
7351 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
7352 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
7353 [Steve Henson]
7354
7355 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
7356 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
7357
7358 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
7359 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
7360 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
7361 [Steve Henson]
7362
7363 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
7364 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
7365 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
7366 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
7367 <support@securenetterm.com>]
7368
7369 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
7370 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
7371 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
7372 [Steve Henson]
7373
7374 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
7375 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
7376 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
7377 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
7378 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
7379 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
7380 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
7381 <support@securenetterm.com>]
7382
7383 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
7384 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
7385 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
7386 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
7387 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
7388 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
7389 [Steve Henson]
7390
7391 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
7392 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
7393 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
7394 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
7395 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
7396 printout format cleaned up.
7397 [Steve Henson]
7398
7399 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
7400 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
7401 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
7402 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
7403 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
7404 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
7405 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
7406 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
7407 [Steve Henson]
7408
7409 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
7410 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
7411 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
7412 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
7413 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
7414 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
7415 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
7416 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
7417 [Steve Henson]
7418
7419 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
7420 extensions from a separate configuration file.
7421 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
7422 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
7423 section to use.
7424 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
7425
7426 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
7427 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
7428 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
7429 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
7430 [Steve Henson]
7431
7432 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
7433 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
7434 the given serial number (according to the index file).
7435 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
7436 in the index file.
7437 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
7438
7439 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
7440 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
7441 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
7442 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
7443
7444 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
7445 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
7446
7447 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
7448 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
7449 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
7450 [Steve Henson]
7451
7452 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
7453 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
7454 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
7455 [Bodo Moeller]
7456
7457 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
7458 file name and line number information in additional arguments
7459 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
7460 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
7461 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
7462 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
7463 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
7464 functions are provided:
7465
7466 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
7467 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
7468 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
7469 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
7470
7471 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
7472 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
7473 extended allocation function is enabled.
7474 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
7475 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
7476 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
7477
7478 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
7479 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
7480 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
7481 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
7482 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
7483 [Geoff Thorpe]
7484
7485 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
7486 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
7487 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
7488 be queried.
7489 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
7490 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
7491 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
7492 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7493
7494 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
7495 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
7496 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
7497 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
7498 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
7499 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
7500 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
7501 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
7502 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
7503 [Richard Levitte]
7504
7505 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
7506 provide utility functions which an application needing
7507 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
7508 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
7509 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
7510
7511 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
7512 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
7513 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
7514 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
7515 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
7516 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
7517 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
7518 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
7519 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
7520
7521 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
7522 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
7523 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
7524 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
7525 [Steve Henson]
7526
7527 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
7528 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
7529 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
7530 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
7531 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
7532 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
7533 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
7534 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
7535 will be added elsewhere.
7536 [Steve Henson]
7537
7538 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
7539 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
7540 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
7541 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
7542 [Steve Henson]
7543
7544 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
7545 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
7546 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
7547 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
7548 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
7549 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
7550 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
7551 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
7552 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
7553 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
7554 to produce the required SET OF.
7555 [Steve Henson]
7556
7557 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
7558 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
7559 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
7560 [Richard Levitte]
7561
7562 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
7563 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
7564 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
7565 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
7566 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
7567 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
7568 [Steve Henson]
7569
7570 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
7571 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
7572 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
7573 [Steve Henson]
7574
7575 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
7576 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
7577 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
7578 [Richard Levitte]
7579
7580 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
7581 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
7582 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
7583 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
7584 code will still work when these eventually go away.
7585 [Steve Henson]
7586
7587 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
7588 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
7589 [Steve Henson]
7590
7591 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
7592 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
7593 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
7594 certificates and CRLs.
7595 [Steve Henson]
7596
7597 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
7598 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
7599 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
7600 [Steve Henson]
7601
7602 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
7603 entries for variables.
7604 [Steve Henson]
7605
7606 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
7607 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
7608 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
7609 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
7610 [Bodo Moeller]
7611
7612 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
7613 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
7614 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
7615 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
7616 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
7617 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
7618 [Bodo Moeller]
7619
7620 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
7621 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
7622
7623 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
7624 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
7625 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
7626 [Steve Henson]
7627
7628 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
7629 print routines.
7630 [Steve Henson]
7631
7632 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
7633 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
7634 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
7635 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
7636 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
7637 order did not reflect the encoded order.
7638 [Steve Henson]
7639
7640 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
7641 [Steve Henson]
7642
7643 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
7644 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
7645 for now but they will eventually go away.
7646 [Steve Henson]
7647
7648 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
7649 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
7650 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
7651 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
7652 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
7653 has also been converted to the new form.
7654 [Steve Henson]
7655
7656 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
7657 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
7658 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
7659 for negative moduli.
7660 [Bodo Moeller]
7661
7662 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
7663 of not touching the result's sign bit.
7664 [Bodo Moeller]
7665
7666 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
7667 set.
7668 [Bodo Moeller]
7669
7670 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
7671 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
7672 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
7673 type-specific callbacks.
7674 [Geoff Thorpe]
7675
7676 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
7677 RFC 2712.
7678 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7679 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
7680
7681 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
7682 in sections depending on the subject.
7683 [Richard Levitte]
7684
7685 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
7686 Windows.
7687 [Richard Levitte]
7688
7689 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
7690 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
7691 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
7692 be handled deterministically).
7693 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
7694
7695 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
7696 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
7697 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
7698 [Bodo Moeller]
7699
7700 *) New function BN_kronecker.
7701 [Bodo Moeller]
7702
7703 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
7704 positive unless both parameters are zero.
7705 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
7706 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
7707 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
7708 [Bodo Moeller]
7709
7710 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
7711 sign of the number in question.
7712
7713 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
7714
7715 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
7716 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
7717 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
7718 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
7719 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
7720 [Bodo Moeller]
7721
7722 *) New function BN_swap.
7723 [Bodo Moeller]
7724
7725 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
7726 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
7727 results on negative inputs.
7728 [Bodo Moeller]
7729
7730 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
7731 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
7732 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
7733 [Bodo Moeller]
7734
7735 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
7736 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
7737 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
7738 and add new functions:
7739
7740 BN_nnmod
7741 BN_mod_sqr
7742 BN_mod_add
7743 BN_mod_add_quick
7744 BN_mod_sub
7745 BN_mod_sub_quick
7746 BN_mod_lshift1
7747 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
7748 BN_mod_lshift
7749 BN_mod_lshift_quick
7750
7751 These functions always generate non-negative results.
7752
7753 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
7754 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
7755
7756 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
7757 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
7758 be reduced modulo m.

7761 #if 0
7762 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
7763 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
7764 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
7765
7766 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
7767 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
7768 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
7769 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
7770 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
7771 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
7772 differing sizes.
7773 [Richard Levitte]
7774 #endif
7775
7776 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
7777 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
7778 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
7779 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
7780 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
7781
7782 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
7783 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
7784 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
7785 cause any problems.
7786 [Bodo Moeller]
7787
7788 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
7789 [Richard Levitte]
7790
7791 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
7792 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
7793 [Richard Levitte]
7794
7795 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
7796 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
7797 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
7798 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
7799 time)
7800 [Richard Levitte]
7801
7802 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
7803 [Richard Levitte]
7804
7805 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
7806 [Richard Levitte]
7807
7808 *) Add the following functions:
7809
7810 ENGINE_load_cswift()
7811 ENGINE_load_chil()
7812 ENGINE_load_atalla()
7813 ENGINE_load_nuron()
7814 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
7815
7816 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
7817 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
7818 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
7819 libraries unless it's really needed.
7820
7821 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
7822 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
7823 declarations (they differed!).
7824 [Richard Levitte]
7825
7826 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
7827 [Richard Levitte]
7828
7829 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
7830 [Richard Levitte]
7831
7832 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
7833 [Bodo Moeller]
7834
7835 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
7836 identity, and test if they are actually available.
7837 [Richard Levitte]
7838
7839 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
7840 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
7841 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
7842
7843 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
7844 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
7845 [Richard Levitte]
7846
7847 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
7848 [Richard Levitte]
7849
7850 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
7851 [Richard Levitte]
7852
7853 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
7854 [Ben Laurie]
7855
7856 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
7857 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
7858 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
7859
7860 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
7861 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
7862 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
7863 different shared library filenames on each system.
7864 [Geoff Thorpe]
7865
7866 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
7867 [Richard Levitte]
7868
7869 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
7870 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
7871 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
7872 of two sections.
7873 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
7874
7875 *) NCONF changes.
7876 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
7877 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
7878 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
7879 binary backward compatibility.
7880 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
7881 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
7882 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
7883 LDAP server.
7884 [Richard Levitte]
7885
7886 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
7887 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
7888 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
7889 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
7890 this case.
7891 [Steve Henson]
7892
7893 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
7894 [Ben Laurie]
7895
7896 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
7897 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
7898 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
7899 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
7900 set.
7901 [Steve Henson]
7902
7903 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
7904 [Richard Levitte]
7905
7906 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
7907
7908 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
7909 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
7910 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
7911
7912 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
7913
7914 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
7915
7916 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
7917 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
7918 [Steve Henson]
7919
7920 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
7921
7922 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
7923
7924 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
7925 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
7926
7927 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
7928 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
7929
7930 [Steve Henson]
7931
7932 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
7933 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
7934 specifications.
7935 [Steve Henson]
7936
7937 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
7938 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
7939 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
7940 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
7941
7942 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
7943 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
7944 [Richard Levitte]
7945
7946 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
7947
7948 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
7949 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
7950 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
7951 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
7952 [Bodo Moeller]
7953
7954 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
7955 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
7956 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
7957 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
7958 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7959
7960 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
7961 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
7962 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
7963 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
7964 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
7965 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
7966 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
7967 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
7968 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
7969 [Bodo Moeller]
7970
7971 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
7972
7973 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
7974 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
7975 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
7976 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
7977 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
7978
7979 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
7980 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
7981 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
7982
7983 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
7984
7985 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
7986 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
7987 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
7988 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
7989 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
7990 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
7991 [Geoff Thorpe]
7992
7993 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
7994 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
7995 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
7996 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
7997 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
7998 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7999
8000 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
8001 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
8002 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
8003
8004 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
8005 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
8006 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
8007 EVP_cleanup().
8008 [Richard Levitte]
8009
8010 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
8011 being properly terminated.
8012 [Richard Levitte]
8013
8014 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
8015 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
8016 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
8017 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
8018
8019 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
8020 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
8021 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
8022 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
8023 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
8024 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
8025 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
8026 change.
8027 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
8028
8029 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
8030 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
8031 [Bodo Moeller]
8032
8033 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
8034 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
8035 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
8036 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
8037 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
8038 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
8039 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
8040 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
8041
8042 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
8043 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
8044 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
8045 (see [openssl.org #212]).
8046 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8047
8048 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
8049 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
8050 [Steve Henson]
8051
8052 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
8053
8054 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
8055 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
8056 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
8057
8058 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
8059
8060 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
8061 and get fix the header length calculation.
8062 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
8063 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
8064 Steve Henson]
8065
8066 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
8067 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
8068 assertions could call abort()).
8069 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
8070
8071 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
8072
8073 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
8074 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
8075 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
8076 supplied buffer.
8077 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
8078
8079 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
8080 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
8081 by the selection routines (PR #130).
8082 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8083
8084 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
8085 [Nils Larsch]
8086
8087 *) New option
8088 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
8089 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
8090 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
8091
8092 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
8093 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
8094 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
8095 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
8096 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
8097 applications.
8098 [Bodo Moeller]
8099
8100 *) Changes in security patch:
8101
8102 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
8103 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
8104 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
8105 F30602-01-2-0537.
8106
8107 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
8108 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
8109 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
8110 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
8111 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
8112
8113 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
8114 happen in practice.
8115 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8116
8117 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
8118 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
8119 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
8120
8121 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
8122 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
8123 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8124
8125 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
8126 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
8127 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8128
8129 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
8130
8131 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
8132 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
8133 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
8134
8135 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
8136 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
8137
8138 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
8139 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
8140 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
8141 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
8142 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
8143 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
8144 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8145
8146 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
8147 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
8148 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
8149 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
8150 [Bodo Moeller]
8151
8152 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
8153 [Bodo Moeller]
8154
8155 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
8156 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
8157 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
8158 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
8159 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
8160 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8161
8162 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
8163 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
8164 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
8165 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
8166 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
8167 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8168
8169 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
8170 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
8171 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
8172 BN_generate_prime().)
8173
8174 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
8175 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
8176 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
8177 better.
8178 [Bodo Moeller]
8179
8180 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
8181 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
8182 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8183
8184 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
8185 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
8186 when using non-blocking I/O.
8187 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
8188
8189 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
8190 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
8191
8192 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
8193 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
8194 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8195
8196 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
8197 configuration for the versions before that.
8198 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
8199
8200 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
8201 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
8202 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
8203 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
8204 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8205
8206 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
8207 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
8208 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
8209 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8210
8211 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
8212 value is 0.
8213 [Richard Levitte]
8214
8215 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
8216 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
8217 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
8218
8219 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
8220 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
8221
8222 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
8223 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
8224 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
8225 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
8226 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
8227 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
8228 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
8229 session cache.
8230
8231 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
8232 using a local variable.
8233 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
8234
8235 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
8236 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
8237 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8238
8239 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
8240 [Richard Levitte]
8241
8242 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
8243 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
8244
8245 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
8246 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
8247 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
8248
8249 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
8250
8251 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
8252 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
8253 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
8254 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
8255 [Bodo Moeller]
8256
8257 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
8258 present.
8259 [Steve Henson]
8260
8261 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
8262 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
8263 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
8264 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
8265 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
8266
8267 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
8268 returns early because it has nothing to do.
8269 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
8270
8271 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8272 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
8273 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
8274
8275 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8276 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
8277 (Use engine 'keyclient')
8278 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
8279
8280 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
8281 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
8282 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
8283 modules).
8284 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
8285
8286 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8287 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
8288 from 0.9.7.
8289 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
8290
8291 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8292 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
8293 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
8294 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
8295
8296 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8297 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
8298 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
8299 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
8300
8301 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
8302 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
8303
8304 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
8305 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
8306 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
8307 [Bodo Moeller]
8308
8309 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
8310 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
8311 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
8312 become invalid.
8313 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
8314
8315 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
8316 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
8317 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
8318 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
8319 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
8320 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
8321 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
8322 [Bodo Moeller]
8323
8324 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
8325 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
8326 one of the SSL handshake functions.
8327 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
8328
8329 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
8330 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
8331 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
8332 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
8333 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
8334 the client will at least see that alert.
8335 [Bodo Moeller]
8336
8337 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
8338 correctly.
8339 [Bodo Moeller]
8340
8341 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
8342 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
8343 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
8344
8345 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
8346 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
8347 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
8348 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
8349 HelloRequest.
8350
8351 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
8352 before just sending a HelloRequest.
8353 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
8354
8355 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
8356 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
8357 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
8358 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
8359 may leak via logfiles.)
8360
8361 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
8362 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
8363 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
8364 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
8365 the legal range.
8366 [Bodo Moeller]
8367
8368 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
8369 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
8370 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8371
8372 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
8373 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
8374 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
8375 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
8376 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
8377 [Bodo Moeller]
8378
8379 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
8380 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
8381
8382 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
8383 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
8384 followed by modular reduction.
8385 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
8386
8387 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
8388 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
8389 [Bodo Moeller]
8390
8391 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
8392 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
8393 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
8394 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
8395 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8396
8397 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
8398 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8399
8400 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
8401 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
8402 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8403
8404 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
8405 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
8406 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
8407 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
8408 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
8409 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
8410 automatically.
8411 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
8412
8413 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
8414 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
8415 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
8416 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
8417 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
8418
8419 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
8420 [Andy Polyakov]
8421
8422 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
8423 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
8424 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
8425 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
8426 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
8427 to allow the necessary settings.
8428 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8429
8430 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
8431 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
8432 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
8433 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
8434 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8435
8436 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
8437 dh->length and always used
8438
8439 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
8440
8441 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
8442 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
8443 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
8444 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
8445 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
8446 dh->length.
8447
8448 So switch back to
8449
8450 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
8451
8452 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
8453 otherwise.
8454 [Bodo Moeller]
8455
8456 *) In
8457
8458 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
8459 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
8460 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
8461 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
8462
8463 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
8464 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
8465 always reject numbers >= n.
8466 [Bodo Moeller]
8467
8468 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
8469 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
8470 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
8471 variable) is not atomic.
8472 [Bodo Moeller]
8473
8474 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
8475 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
8476 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
8477 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
8478
8479 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
8480 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
8481
8482 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
8483 little-endian MIPS.
8484 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
8485
8486 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
8487 [Richard Levitte]
8488
8489 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
8490
8491 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
8492 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
8493 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
8494 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
8495 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
8496 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
8497 to traverse all of 'state'.
8498
8499 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
8500 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
8501 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
8502
8503 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
8504 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
8505
8506 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
8507 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
8508 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
8509 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
8510 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
8511 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
8512 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
8513 further strengthens the PRNG.
8514 [Bodo Moeller]
8515
8516 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
8517 [Andy Polyakov]
8518
8519 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
8520 an error message in this case.
8521 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8522
8523 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
8524 [Steve Henson]
8525
8526 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
8527 positive and less than q.
8528 [Bodo Moeller]
8529
8530 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
8531 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
8532 that itself.
8533 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
8534
8535 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
8536 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
8537 [Bodo Moeller]
8538
8539 *) Fix OAEP check.
8540 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8541
8542 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
8543 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
8544 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
8545 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
8546 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
8547 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
8548 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
8549 paper.)
8550
8551 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
8552 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
8553 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
8554 detect the supposedly ignored error.
8555
8556 Both problems are now fixed.
8557 [Bodo Moeller]
8558
8559 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
8560 (previously it was 1024).
8561 [Bodo Moeller]
8562
8563 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
8564 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
8565 [Steve Henson]
8566
8567 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
8568 [Steve Henson]
8569
8570 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
8571 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
8572 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
8573 [Steve Henson]
8574
8575 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
8576 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
8577 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
8578 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
8579 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
8580 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
8581 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
8582 environment variables.
8583
8584 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
8585 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
8586 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
8587 [Bodo Moeller]
8588
8589 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
8590 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
8591 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
8592 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
8593 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
8594 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
8595 [Bodo Moeller]
8596
8597 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
8598 versions of 'test'.
8599 [Bodo Moeller]
8600
8601 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
8602
8603 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
8604 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
8605
8606 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
8607 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
8608 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
8609 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
8610 CygWin.
8611 [Richard Levitte]
8612
8613 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
8614 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
8615 amount of data available.
8616 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
8617 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8618
8619 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
8620 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
8621 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
8622 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
8623 [Bodo Moeller]
8624
8625 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
8626 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
8627 and UnixWare.
8628 [Richard Levitte]
8629
8630 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
8631 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
8632 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
8633 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
8634 [Ulf Moeller]
8635
8636 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
8637 [Andy Polyakov]
8638
8639 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
8640 [Richard Levitte]
8641
8642 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
8643 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
8644 [Steve Henson]
8645 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8646
8647 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
8648 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
8649 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
8650 (but broken) behaviour.
8651 [Steve Henson]
8652
8653 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
8654 it when found.
8655 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
8656
8657 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
8658 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
8659 [Bodo Moeller]
8660
8661 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
8662 did not exist.
8663 [Bodo Moeller]
8664
8665 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
8666 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
8667
8668 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
8669 [Richard Levitte]
8670
8671 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
8672 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
8673 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
8674
8675 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
8676 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
8677 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
8678 [Steve Henson]
8679
8680 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
8681 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
8682 [Ulf Moeller]
8683
8684 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
8685 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
8686
8687 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
8688
8689 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
8690
8691 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
8692 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
8693 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
8694 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
8695 [Bodo Moeller]
8696
8697 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
8698 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8699
8700 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
8701 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
8702 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
8703
8704 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
8705 was empty.
8706 [Steve Henson]
8707 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8708
8709 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
8710 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
8711 but the code is actually correct.
8712 [Steve Henson]
8713
8714 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
8715 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
8716 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
8717 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
8718 and leaves the highest bit random.
8719 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8720
8721 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
8722 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
8723 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
8724 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
8725 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
8726 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
8727 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
8728 [Bodo Moeller]
8729
8730 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
8731 [Ulf Moeller]
8732
8733 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
8734 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
8735 [Steve Henson]
8736
8737 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
8738 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
8739 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
8740 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
8741 headers.
8742 [Richard Levitte]
8743
8744 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
8745 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
8746 and break the signature.
8747 [Steve Henson]
8748 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8749
8750 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
8751 DH ciphersuites.
8752 [Steve Henson]
8753
8754 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
8755 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
8756 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
8757 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
8758 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
8759 [Bodo Moeller]
8760
8761 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
8762 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
8763
8764 *) ./config script fixes.
8765 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
8766
8767 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
8768 [Bodo Moeller]
8769
8770 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
8771 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
8772 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
8773 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
8774 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
8775
8776 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
8777 call failed, free the DSA structure.
8778 [Bodo Moeller]
8779
8780 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
8781 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
8782 [Steve Henson]
8783
8784 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
8785 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
8786 when writing a 32767 byte record.
8787 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
8788
8789 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
8790 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
8791
8792 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
8793 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
8794 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
8795 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
8796 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
8797
8798 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
8799 [Bodo Moeller]
8800
8801 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
8802 [Ulf Möller]
8803
8804 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
8805 [Ulf Möller]
8806
8807 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
8808 [Bodo Moeller]
8809
8810 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
8811 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
8812 [Bodo Moeller]
8813
8814 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
8815 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
8816 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
8817 result of the server certificate verification.)
8818 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8819
8820 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
8821 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
8822 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
8823 [Bodo Moeller]
8824
8825 *) Fix SSL_peek:
8826 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
8827 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
8828 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
8829 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
8830 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
8831 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
8832 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
8833 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
8834 [Bodo Moeller]
8835
8836 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
8837 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
8838 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
8839 happening the other way round.
8840 [Geoff Thorpe]
8841
8842 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
8843 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
8844 [Bodo Moeller]
8845
8846 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
8847 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
8848 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
8849 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
8850 [Richard Levitte]
8851
8852 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
8853 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
8854
8855 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
8856
8857 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
8858 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
8859 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
8860 that.
8861
8862 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
8863
8864 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
8865
8866 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
8867 static ones.
8868 [Richard Levitte]
8869
8870 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
8871
8872 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
8873 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
8874 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
8875 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
8876 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
8877
8878 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
8879 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
8880 matter what.
8881 [Richard Levitte]
8882
8883 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
8884 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8885
8886 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
8887
8888 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
8889 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
8890 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
8891 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
8892 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
8893 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
8894 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
8895 by the Finished messages.
8896 [Bodo Moeller]
8897
8898 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
8899 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
8900
8901 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
8902 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
8903 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
8904 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
8905 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
8906 appropriately.
8907 [Steve Henson]
8908
8909 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
8910 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
8911 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
8912 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
8913 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
8914 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
8915 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
8916 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
8917 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
8918 together.
8919 [Steve Henson]
8920
8921 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
8922 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
8923 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
8924 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
8925
8926 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
8927 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
8928 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
8929 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
8930 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
8931 the answer.
8932
8933 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
8934 been tested well enough.
8935 [Richard Levitte]
8936
8937 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
8938 it can return incorrect results.
8939 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
8940 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
8941 [Bodo Moeller]
8942
8943 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
8944 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
8945 include zero length content when signing messages.
8946 [Steve Henson]
8947
8948 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
8949 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
8950 [Bodo Möller]
8951
8952 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
8953 [Richard Levitte]
8954
8955 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
8956 wrong sign.
8957 [Ulf Möller]
8958
8959 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
8960 packages. The default package contains applications, application
8961 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
8962 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
8963 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
8964 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
8965 [Richard Levitte]
8966
8967 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
8968 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8969
8970 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
8971 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
8972
8973 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
8974 random number < q in the DSA library.
8975 [Ulf Möller]
8976
8977 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
8978 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
8979 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
8980 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
8981 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
8982 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
8983 just makes things more complicated.)
8984 [Bodo Moeller]
8985
8986 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
8987 from EGD.
8988 [Ben Laurie]
8989
8990 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
8991 work better on such systems.
8992 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8993
8994 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
8995 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
8996 keyid to the certificates aux info.
8997 [Steve Henson]
8998
8999 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
9000 if there was more than one signature.
9001 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
9002
9003 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
9004 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
9005 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
9006 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
9007 [Richard Levitte]
9008
9009 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
9010 rather than always using the current time.
9011 [Steve Henson]
9012
9013 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
9014 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
9015 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
9016 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
9017 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
9018 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
9019
9020 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
9021 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
9022
9023 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
9024
9025 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
9026 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
9027 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
9028 the same hash value.
9029
9030 As a result various functions (which were all internal
9031 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
9032 structure. This will break anything that messed round
9033 with X509_STORE internally.
9034
9035 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
9036 exact match, rather than just subject name.
9037
9038 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
9039 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
9040 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
9041 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
9042 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
9043 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
9044 entirely (maybe later...).
9045
9046 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
9047
9048 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
9049 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
9050 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
9051 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
9052 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
9053 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
9054 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
9055 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
9056
9057 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
9058 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
9059
9060 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
9061 to customise the verify behaviour.
9062 [Steve Henson]
9063
9064 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
9065 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
9066 [Steve Henson]
9067
9068 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
9069 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
9070 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
9071 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
9072 request is improperly encoded.
9073 [Steve Henson]
9074
9075 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
9076 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
9077 BIO_write(b, ...).
9078
9079 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
9080 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
9081
9082 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
9083 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
9084 words set to zero.)
9085 [Bodo Moeller]
9086
9087 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
9088 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
9089 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
9090 [Bodo Moeller]
9091
9092 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
9093 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
9094 BIO/fp routines also added.
9095 [Steve Henson]
9096
9097 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
9098 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
9099
9100 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
9101 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
9102 demos/state_machine.
9103 [Ben Laurie]
9104
9105 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
9106 generation and verification.
9107 [Steve Henson]
9108
9109 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
9110 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
9111 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
9112 encode and decode it manually.
9113 [Steve Henson]
9114
9115 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
9116 compile under VC++.
9117 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
9118
9119 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
9120 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
9121 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
9122 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
9123
9124 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
9125 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
9126 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
9127 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
9128 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
9129 [Steve Henson]
9130
9131 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
9132 [Richard Levitte]
9133
9134 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
9135 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
9136 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
9137
9138 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
9139 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
9140 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
9141 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
9142 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
9143 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
9144 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
9145 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
9146
9147 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
9148 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
9149
9150 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
9151
9152 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
9153 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
9154 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
9155
9156 [Richard Levitte]
9157
9158 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
9159 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
9160 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
9161 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
9162 [Richard Levitte]
9163
9164 *) MD4 implemented.
9165 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
9166
9167 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
9168 [Richard Levitte]
9169
9170 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
9171 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
9172 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
9173 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
9174 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
9175 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
9176 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
9177 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
9178 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
9179 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
9180 short or long names are found.
9181 [Steve Henson]
9182
9183 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
9184 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
9185
9186 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
9187 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
9188 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
9189 version rollback attacks was not effective.
9190
9191 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
9192 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
9193 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
9194 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
9195 [Bodo Moeller]
9196
9197 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
9198 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
9199 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
9200 [Richard Levitte]
9201
9202 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
9203 these print out strings and name structures based on various
9204 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
9205 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
9206 to allow the various flags to be set.
9207 [Steve Henson]
9208
9209 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
9210 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
9211 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
9212 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
9213 dates to be checked.
9214 [Steve Henson]
9215
9216 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
9217 negative public key encodings) on by default,
9218 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
9219 [Steve Henson]
9220
9221 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
9222 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
9223 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
9224 [Steve Henson]
9225
9226 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
9227 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
9228 [Bodo Moeller]
9229
9230 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
9231 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
9232 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
9233 are always statically linked for now, but there are
9234 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
9235 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
9236 [Richard Levitte]
9237
9238 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
9239 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
9240 Random Numbers.
9241 [Ulf Möller]
9242
9243 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
9244 DSA key.
9245 [Steve Henson]
9246
9247 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
9248 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
9249 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
9250 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
9251 form signing output easier to verify.
9252 [Steve Henson]
9253
9254 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
9255 [Steve Henson]
9256
9257 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
9258 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
9259 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
9260 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
9261 are needed because all other string types have virtually
9262 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
9263 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
9264 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
9265 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
9266 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
9267 [Steve Henson]
9268
9269 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
9270
9271 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
9272 the syntax given in objects.README.
9273 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
9274 obj_mac.h.
9275 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
9276 obj_mac.h.
9277
9278 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
9279 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
9280 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
9281 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
9282 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
9283 consistent name changes.
9284 [Richard Levitte]
9285
9286 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
9287 [Bodo Moeller]
9288
9289 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
9290 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
9291 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
9292 environment variable, or the default random state file.
9293 [Richard Levitte]
9294
9295 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
9296 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
9297 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
9298 of safestack.h .
9299 [Steve Henson]
9300
9301 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
9302 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
9303 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
9304 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
9305 [Steve Henson]
9306
9307 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
9308 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
9309 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
9310 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
9311 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
9312 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
9313 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
9314 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
9315 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
9316 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
9317 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
9318 [Steve Henson]
9319
9320 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
9321 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
9322 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
9323 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
9324 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
9325 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
9326 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
9327 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
9328 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
9329 algorithm to openssl-dev.
9330 [Steve Henson]
9331
9332 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
9333 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
9334 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
9335 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
9336
9337 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
9338 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
9339 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
9340 omit any duplicate addresses.
9341 [Steve Henson]
9342
9343 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
9344 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
9345 [Bodo Moeller]
9346
9347 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
9348 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
9349 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
9350 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
9351 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
9352 [Bodo Moeller]
9353
9354 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
9355 software:
9356 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
9357 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
9358 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
9359 Free => OPENSSL_free
9360 [Richard Levitte]
9361
9362 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
9363 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
9364 [Bodo Moeller]
9365
9366 *) CygWin32 support.
9367 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
9368
9369 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
9370 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
9371 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
9372 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
9373 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
9374 approach.
9375 [Geoff Thorpe]
9376
9377 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
9378 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
9379 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
9380 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
9381 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
9382 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
9383 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
9384 [Geoff Thorpe]
9385
9386 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
9387 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
9388 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
9389 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
9390 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
9391 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
9392 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
9393 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
9394 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
9395 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
9396 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
9397 [Bodo Moeller]
9398
9399 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
9400 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
9401 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
9402 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
9403 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
9404
9405 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
9406 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
9407 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
9408 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
9409 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
9410
9411 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
9412 ciphers.
9413
9414 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
9415 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
9416 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
9417 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
9418
9419 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
9420
9421 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
9422 of macros.
9423
9424 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
9425 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
9426 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
9427 flags.
9428
9429 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
9430 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
9431 any installed hardware versions can.
9432 [Steve Henson]
9433
9434 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
9435 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
9436 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
9437 number.
9438 [Bodo Moeller]
9439
9440 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
9441 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
9442 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
9443 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
9444 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
9445
9446 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
9447 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
9448 [Steve Henson]
9449
9450 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
9451 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
9452 [Richard Levitte]
9453
9454 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
9455 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
9456 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
9457 features.
9458 [Steve Henson]
9459
9460 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
9461 [Ulf Möller]
9462
9463 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
9464 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
9465 but no ssl client purpose.
9466 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
9467
9468 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
9469 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
9470 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
9471 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
9472 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
9473 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
9474 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
9475 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
9476 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
9477 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
9478 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
9479 [Steve Henson]
9480
9481 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
9482 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
9483 be obtained from the error queue.
9484 [Bodo Moeller]
9485
9486 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
9487 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
9488 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
9489 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
9490 [Bodo Moeller]
9491
9492 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
9493 [Ulf Möller]
9494
9495 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
9496 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
9497 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
9498 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
9499 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
9500 [Geoff Thorpe]
9501
9502 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
9503 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
9504 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
9505 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
9506 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
9507 [Geoff Thorpe]
9508
9509 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
9510 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
9511 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
9512 may not be NULL.
9513 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
9514
9515 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
9516 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
9517 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
9518 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
9519 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
9520 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
9521 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
9522 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
9523 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
9524 or "the configuration storage API"...
9525
9526 The new configuration file reading functions are:
9527
9528 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
9529 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
9530
9531 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
9532
9533 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
9534
9535 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
9536 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
9537 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
9538 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
9539 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
9540 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
9541 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
9542
9543 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
9544 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
9545 [Richard Levitte]
9546
9547 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
9548 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
9549 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
9550 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
9551 [Bodo Moeller]
9552
9553 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
9554 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
9555 them in a portable way.
9556 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
9557
9558 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
9559
9560 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
9561
9562 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
9563 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
9564
9565 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
9566 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
9567 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
9568 <attili@amaxo.com>]
9569
9570 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
9571 was larger than the MD block size.
9572 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
9573
9574 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
9575 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
9576 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
9577 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
9578 components.
9579 [Steve Henson]
9580
9581 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
9582 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
9583 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
9584
9585 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
9586 discouraged.
9587 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
9588
9589 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
9590 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
9591 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
9592 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
9593 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
9594 Additional arguments are always ignored.
9595
9596 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
9597 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
9598
9599 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
9600 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
9601 [Bodo Moeller]
9602
9603 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
9604 [Bodo Moeller]
9605
9606 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
9607 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
9608 its own key.
9609 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
9610 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
9611 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
9612 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
9613 [Bodo Moeller]
9614
9615 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
9616 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
9617 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
9618 does not suppress any output.
9619 [Richard Levitte]
9620
9621 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
9622 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
9623 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
9624 with all the associated security issues.
9625
9626 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
9627 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
9628 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
9629 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
9630 use the value in the default purpose.
9631 [Steve Henson]
9632
9633 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
9634 and fix a memory leak.
9635 [Steve Henson]
9636
9637 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
9638 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
9639 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
9640 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
9641 [Bodo Moeller]
9642
9643 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
9644 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
9645 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
9646 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
9647 [Bodo Moeller]
9648
9649 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
9650 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
9651 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
9652 [Bodo Moeller]
9653
9654 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
9655 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
9656 [Bodo Moeller]
9657
9658 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
9659 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
9660 which was free.
9661 [Steve Henson]
9662
9663 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
9664 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
9665 [Bodo Moeller]
9666
9667 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
9668 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
9669 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
9670 [Bodo Moeller]
9671
9672 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
9673 number generation fails.
9674 [Bodo Moeller]
9675
9676 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
9677 [Bodo Moeller]
9678
9679 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
9680 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
9681
9682 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
9683 [Ulf Möller]
9684
9685 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
9686 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
9687
9688 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
9689 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
9690
9691 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
9692
9693 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
9694 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
9695 [Steve Henson]
9696
9697 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
9698 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
9699
9700 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
9701 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
9702 [Ulf Möller]
9703
9704 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
9705 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
9706 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
9707 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
9708 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
9709 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
9710
9711 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
9712 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
9713 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
9714 for example.
9715 [Steve Henson]
9716
9717 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
9718 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
9719 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
9720 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
9721 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
9722 counter, some don't.)
9723 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
9724 counters or duplicate objects.
9725 [Steve Henson]
9726
9727 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
9728 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
9729 [Steve Henson]
9730
9731 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
9732 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
9733 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
9734
9735 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
9736 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
9737 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
9738 or -rand.
9739 [Ulf Möller]
9740
9741 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
9742 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
9743 [Steve Henson]
9744
9745 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
9746 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
9747 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
9748 cipher list.
9749 [Steve Henson]
9750
9751 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
9752 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
9753 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
9754 [Steve Henson]
9755
9756 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
9757 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
9758 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
9759 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
9760 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
9761 should work without changes.
9762 [Richard Levitte]
9763
9764 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
9765 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
9766 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
9767 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
9768 must be defined. E.g.,
9769 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
9770 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
9771 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
9772 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
9773
9774 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
9775 record layer.
9776 [Bodo Moeller]
9777
9778 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
9779 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
9780 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
9781 [Steve Henson]
9782
9783 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
9784 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
9785 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
9786 request header lines. Some software needs this.
9787 [Steve Henson]
9788
9789 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
9790 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
9791 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
9792 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
9793 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
9794 is prompted for as usual.
9795 [Steve Henson]
9796
9797 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
9798 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
9799 autodetect the card and use it if present.
9800 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
9801
9802 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
9803 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
9804 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
9805 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
9806 [Steve Henson]
9807
9808 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
9809 [Andy Polyakov]
9810
9811 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
9812 of seed file.
9813 [Steve Henson]
9814
9815 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
9816 [Bodo Moeller]
9817
9818 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
9819 [Steve Henson]
9820
9821 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
9822 bits.
9823 [Ulf Möller]
9824
9825 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
9826 [Ulf Möller]
9827
9828 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
9829 [Andy Polyakov]
9830
9831 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
9832 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
9833 [Ulf Möller]
9834
9835 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
9836 options to produce them.
9837 [Steve Henson]
9838
9839 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
9840 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
9841 [Ulf Möller]
9842
9843 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
9844 for p == 0.
9845 [Ulf Möller]
9846
9847 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
9848 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
9849 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
9850 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
9851 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
9852 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
9853 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
9854 [Steve Henson]
9855
9856 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
9857 [Steve Henson]
9858
9859 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
9860 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
9861 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
9862 [Bodo Moeller]
9863
9864 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
9865 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
9866
9867 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
9868 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
9869 [Ulf Möller]
9870
9871 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
9872 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
9873 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
9874 has already seen).
9875 [Bodo Moeller]
9876
9877 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
9878 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
9879
9880 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
9881 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
9882 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
9883 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
9884 generation becomes much faster.
9885
9886 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
9887 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
9888 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
9889 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
9890 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
9891 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
9892 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
9893 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
9894 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
9895 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
9896 [Bodo Moeller]
9897
9898 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
9899 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
9900 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
9901 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
9902 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
9903 trial division stage.
9904 [Bodo Moeller]
9905
9906 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
9907 as ASN1_TIME.
9908 [Steve Henson]
9909
9910 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
9911 [Steve Henson]
9912
9913 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
9914 [Ulf Möller]
9915
9916 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
9917 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
9918 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
9919 the comments.
9920 [Ulf Möller]
9921
9922 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
9923 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
9924 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
9925 [Bodo Moeller]
9926
9927 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
9928 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
9929 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
9930 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9931
9932 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
9933 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
9934 [Steve Henson]
9935
9936 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
9937 [Ulf Möller]
9938
9939 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
9940 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
9941 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
9942 Rabin-Miller iterations.
9943 [Ulf Möller]
9944
9945 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
9946 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
9947 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
9948 [Ulf Möller]
9949
9950 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
9951 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
9952 (instead of parameters) in future.
9953 [Steve Henson]
9954
9955 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
9956 when a new cipher list is set.
9957 [Steve Henson]
9958
9959 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
9960 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
9961 wrong.
9962
9963 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
9964 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
9965 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
9966
9967 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
9968 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
9969 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
9970 an error is flagged.
9971
9972 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
9973 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
9974 the readability was also increased :-)
9975 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9976
9977 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
9978 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
9979 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
9980 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
9981 as the root CA.
9982 [Steve Henson]
9983
9984 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
9985 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
9986 [Steve Henson]
9987
9988 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
9989 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
9990 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
9991 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
9992 instead.
9993
9994 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
9995 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
9996 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
9997 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
9998 because they handle more complex structures.)
9999 [Steve Henson]
10000
10001 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
10002 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
10003 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
10004 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10005
10006 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
10007 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
10008 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
10009 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
10010 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
10011 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
10012 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
10013 [Ulf Möller]
10014
10015 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
10016 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
10017 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
10018 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
10019 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
10020 [Bodo Moeller]
10021
10022 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
10023 [Bodo Moeller]
10024
10025 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
10026 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
10027 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
10028 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
10029 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
10030 to use this.
10031
10032 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
10033 code.
10034 [Steve Henson]
10035
10036 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
10037 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
10038 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
10039 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
10040 [Steve Henson]
10041
10042 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
10043 [Ulf Möller]
10044
10045 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
10046 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
10047 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
10048 international characters are used.
10049
10050 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
10051 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
10052 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
10053 in ASN1 order.
10054 [Steve Henson]
10055
10056 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
10057 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
10058 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
10059 request.
10060
10061 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
10062 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
10063 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
10064 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
10065 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
10066 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
10067
10068 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
10069 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
10070 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
10071 be handled by the string table functions.
10072
10073 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
10074 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
10075 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
10076 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
10077 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
10078 types at all.
10079 [Steve Henson]
10080
10081 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
10082 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
10083 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
10084 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
10085 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
10086
10087 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
10088 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
10089 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
10090 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
10091 [Bodo Moeller]
10092
10093 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
10094 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
10095 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
10096 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
10097 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
10098 SHA1.
10099 [Andy Polyakov]
10100
10101 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
10102 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
10103 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
10104 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
10105 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
10106 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
10107 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
10108 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
10109
10110 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
10111 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
10112 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
10113 [Steve Henson]
10114
10115 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
10116 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
10117 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
10118 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
10119 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
10120 support to pkcs8 application.
10121 [Steve Henson]
10122
10123 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
10124 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
10125 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
10126 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
10127 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
10128 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
10129 [Bodo Moeller]
10130
10131 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
10132 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
10133 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
10134 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
10135 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
10136 consistency.
10137 [Bodo Moeller]
10138
10139 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
10140 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
10141 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
10142 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
10143 example.
10144 [Steve Henson]
10145
10146 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
10147 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
10148 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
10149 and any application specific purposes.
10150
10151 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
10152 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
10153 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
10154 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
10155 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
10156 if the certificate is self signed.
10157 [Steve Henson]
10158
10159 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
10160 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
10161 [Steve Henson]
10162
10163 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
10164 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
10165 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
10166 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
10167 [Steve Henson]
10168
10169 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
10170 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
10171 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
10172 Update documentation.
10173 [Steve Henson]
10174
10175 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
10176 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
10177 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
10178 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
10179 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
10180 [Steve Henson]
10181
10182 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
10183 for details.
10184 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
10185
10186 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
10187 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
10188 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
10189 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
10190 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
10191 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
10192 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
10193 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
10194 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
10195 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
10196
10197 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
10198
10199 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
10200 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
10201 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
10202 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
10203 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
10204
10205 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
10206 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
10207 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
10208 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
10209 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
10210 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
10211 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
10212 request additional information:
10213 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
10214 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
10215
10216 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
10217 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
10218 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
10219 options.
10220
10221 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
10222 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
10223
10224 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
10225 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
10226 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
10227
10228 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
10229 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
10230
10231 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
10232 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
10233 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
10234 algorithm.
10235 [Steve Henson]
10236
10237 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
10238 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
10239 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
10240
10241 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
10242 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
10243 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
10244 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
10245 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
10246 included in OpenSSL.
10247 [Steve Henson]
10248
10249 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
10250 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
10251 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
10252 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
10253 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
10254 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
10255 [Bodo Moeller]
10256
10257 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
10258 PKCS12 structure.
10259 [Steve Henson]
10260
10261 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
10262 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
10263 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
10264 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
10265 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
10266 structure.
10267 [Steve Henson]
10268
10269 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
10270 need initialising.
10271 [Steve Henson]
10272
10273 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
10274 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
10275 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
10276 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
10277 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
10278 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
10279 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
10280 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
10281 be maintained manually.
10282
10283 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
10284 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
10285 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
10286 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
10287 work because people forget to call this function]
10288 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
10289 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
10290 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
10291 [Steve Henson]
10292
10293 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
10294 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
10295 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
10296 should be discouraged from doing it.
10297 [Ben Laurie]
10298
10299 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
10300 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
10301 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
10302 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
10303 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
10304 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
10305 [Steve Henson]
10306
10307 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
10308 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
10309 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
10310
10311 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
10312 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
10313 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
10314
10315 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
10316 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
10317 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
10318 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
10319 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
10320 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
10321
10322 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
10323 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
10324 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
10325
10326 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
10327 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
10328 and vice versa.
10329
10330 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
10331 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
10332 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
10333 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
10334 [Steve Henson]
10335
10336 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
10337 [Steve Henson]
10338
10339 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
10340 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
10341 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
10342 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
10343 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
10344 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
10345 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
10346 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
10347 keys so we should be OK.
10348
10349 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
10350 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
10351 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
10352 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
10353 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
10354 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
10355 stay in the name of compatibility.
10356
10357 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
10358 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
10359 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
10360
10361 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
10362 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
10363 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
10364 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
10365 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
10366 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
10367 supplied key).
10368 [Steve Henson]
10369
10370 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
10371 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
10372 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
10373 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
10374 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
10375 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
10376 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
10377 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
10378 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
10379 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
10380 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
10381 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
10382 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
10383 [Steve Henson]
10384
10385 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
10386 [Steve Henson]
10387
10388 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
10389 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
10390 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
10391 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
10392 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
10393 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
10394 single self signed certificate. This means that:
10395 openssl verify ss.pem
10396 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
10397 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
10398 is OK.
10399 [Steve Henson]
10400
10401 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
10402 (and add it to external session representation).
10403 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
10404 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
10405 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
10406 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
10407 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
10408 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
10409 security holes.
10410 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
10411
10412 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
10413 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
10414 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
10415 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
10416
10417 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
10418 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
10419 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
10420 [Steve Henson]
10421
10422 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
10423 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
10424 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
10425 code.
10426 [Steve Henson]
10427
10428 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
10429 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
10430 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
10431
10432 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
10433 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
10434 certificate auxiliary information.
10435 [Steve Henson]
10436
10437 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
10438 the 'enc' command.
10439 [Steve Henson]
10440
10441 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
10442 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
10443 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
10444 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
10445 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
10446 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
10447 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
10448 [Richard Levitte]
10449
10450 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
10451 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
10452 [Steve Henson]
10453
10454 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
10455 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
10456 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
10457 manpages and fix a few bugs.
10458 [Steve Henson]
10459
10460 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
10461 [Steve Henson]
10462
10463 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
10464 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
10465 [Steve Henson]
10466
10467 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
10468 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
10469 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
10470 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
10471 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
10472 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
10473 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
10474 using the new 'x509' options.
10475
10476 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
10477 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
10478 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
10479 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
10480 for all purposes.
10481 [Steve Henson]
10482
10483 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
10484 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
10485 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
10486 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
10487 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
10488 [Mark Cox]
10489
10490 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
10491 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
10492 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
10493 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
10494 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
10495 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
10496 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
10497 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
10498 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
10499 the key length and effective key length are equal.
10500 [Steve Henson]
10501
10502 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
10503 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
10504 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
10505 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
10506 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
10507 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
10508 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
10509 [Steve Henson]
10510
10511 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
10512 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
10513 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
10514 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
10515 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
10516 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
10517 openssl.cnf for more info.
10518 [Steve Henson]
10519
10520 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
10521 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
10522 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
10523 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
10524 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
10525 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
10526 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
10527 md should be large enough anyway.
10528 [Bodo Moeller]
10529
10530 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
10531 for handling the random seed file.
10532
10533 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
10534 ca,
10535 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
10536 s_client,
10537 s_server,
10538 x509 (when signing).
10539 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
10540 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
10541 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
10542
10543 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
10544 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
10545 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
10546 that support '-rand'.
10547 [Bodo Moeller]
10548
10549 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
10550 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
10551 [Bodo Moeller]
10552
10553 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
10554 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
10555 [Bill Perry]
10556
10557 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
10558 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
10559 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
10560 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
10561 is suitable.
10562 [Steve Henson]
10563
10564 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
10565 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
10566 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
10567 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
10568 [Steve Henson]
10569
10570 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
10571 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
10572 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
10573 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
10574 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
10575 print out all the purposes.
10576 [Steve Henson]
10577
10578 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
10579 functions.
10580 [Steve Henson]
10581
10582 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
10583 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
10584 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
10585 single function call.
10586 [Steve Henson]
10587
10588 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
10589 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
10590 [Andy Polyakov]
10591
10592 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
10593 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
10594 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
10595 [Steve Henson]
10596
10597 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
10598 when producing the local key id.
10599 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10600
10601 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
10602 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
10603 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
10604 "server.pem".
10605 [Steve Henson]
10606
10607 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
10608 a public key to be input or output. For example:
10609 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
10610 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
10611 [Steve Henson]
10612
10613 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
10614 in the message. This was handled by allowing
10615 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
10616 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
10617
10618 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
10619 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
10620 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
10621 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10622
10623 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
10624 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
10625 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
10626 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
10627 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
10628 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
10629 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
10630 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
10631 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
10632 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
10633 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
10634 trivial: move one line.
10635 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
10636
10637 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
10638 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
10639 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
10640 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
10641 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
10642 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
10643 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
10644 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
10645 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
10646 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
10647 with an event loop for example.
10648 [Steve Henson]
10649
10650 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
10651 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
10652 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
10653 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
10654 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
10655 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
10656 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
10657 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
10658 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
10659 [Steve Henson]
10660
10661 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
10662 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
10663 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
10664 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
10665 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
10666 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
10667 [Steve Henson]
10668
10669 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
10670 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
10671 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
10672 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
10673
10674 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
10675 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
10676 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
10677 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
10678 key generation.
10679 [Steve Henson]
10680
10681 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
10682 (still largely untested)
10683 [Bodo Moeller]
10684
10685 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
10686 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
10687 [Steve Henson]
10688
10689 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
10690 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
10691 [Steve Henson]
10692
10693 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
10694 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
10695 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
10696 [Bodo Moeller]
10697
10698 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
10699 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
10700 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
10701 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
10702 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
10703 [Steve Henson]
10704
10705 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
10706 [Andy Polyakov]
10707
10708 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
10709 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
10710 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
10711 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
10712 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
10713 in ca.
10714 [Steve Henson]
10715
10716 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
10717 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
10718 1.OU="Unit name 1"
10719 2.OU="Unit name 2"
10720 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
10721 [Steve Henson]
10722
10723 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
10724 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
10725 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
10726 are otherwise ignored at present.
10727 [Steve Henson]
10728
10729 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
10730 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
10731 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
10732 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
10733 copied until the next read.
10734 [Steve Henson]
10735
10736 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
10737 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
10738 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
10739 [Steve Henson]
10740
10741 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
10742 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
10743 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
10744 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
10745 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
10746 associated functions.
10747 [Steve Henson]
10748
10749 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
10750 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
10751 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
10752 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
10753 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
10754 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
10755 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
10756 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
10757 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
10758 memory BIOs.
10759 [Steve Henson]
10760
10761 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
10762 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
10763 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
10764 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
10765 [Bodo Moeller]
10766
10767 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
10768 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
10769 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
10770 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
10771 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
10772 functionality.
10773 [Steve Henson]
10774
10775 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
10776 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
10777 under Win32.
10778 [Steve Henson]
10779
10780 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
10781 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
10782 extensions to be obtained and added.
10783 [Steve Henson]
10784
10785 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
10786 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
10787 [Bodo Moeller]
10788
10789 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
10790
10791 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10792 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10793
10794 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
10795 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
10796
10797 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
10798 program.
10799 [Steve Henson]
10800
10801 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
10802 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
10803 DH parameters contain its length).
10804
10805 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
10806 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
10807 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
10808 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
10809 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
10810 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
10811 utter importance to use
10812 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
10813 or
10814 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
10815 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
10816 attacks may become possible!
10817 [Bodo Moeller]
10818
10819 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
10820 [Bodo Moeller]
10821
10822 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
10823 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
10824 [Steve Henson]
10825
10826 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
10827 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
10828 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
10829 or long name.
10830 [Steve Henson]
10831
10832 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
10833 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
10834 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
10835 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
10836 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
10837 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
10838 private key operations.
10839 [Steve Henson]
10840
10841 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
10842 [Andy Polyakov]
10843
10844 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
10845 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
10846 to
10847 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
10848 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
10849 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
10850 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
10851 the password callback is called.
10852 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
10853
10854 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
10855
10856 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
10857 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
10858 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
10859 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
10860 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
10861 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
10862 this will work.
10863
10864 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
10865 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
10866 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
10867 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
10868 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
10869 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
10870 [Bodo Moeller]
10871
10872 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
10873 [Andy Polyakov]
10874
10875 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
10876 delete an unused file.
10877 [Ulf Möller]
10878
10879 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
10880 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
10881 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
10882 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
10883 [Steve Henson]
10884
10885 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
10886 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
10887 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
10888 of an error.
10889 [Bodo Moeller]
10890
10891 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
10892 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
10893 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
10894
10895 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
10896 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
10897 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
10898 comparison" warnings.
10899 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
10900 [Steve Henson]
10901
10902 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
10903 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
10904 derived keys are printed to stderr.
10905 [Steve Henson]
10906
10907 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
10908 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
10909
10910 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
10911 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
10912
10913 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
10914 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
10915 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
10916
10917 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
10918 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
10919 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
10920 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
10921 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
10922 this bug.
10923 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
10924
10925 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
10926 The interface is as follows:
10927 Applications can use
10928 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
10929 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
10930 "off" is now the default.
10931 The library internally uses
10932 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
10933 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
10934 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
10935
10936 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
10937 even the default) are now avoided.
10938
10939 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
10940 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
10941 than just having a counter.
10942
10943 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
10944
10945 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
10946 extensions.
10947 [Bodo Moeller]
10948
10949 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
10950 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
10951 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
10952 Initial "mode" flags are:
10953
10954 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
10955 a single record has been written.
10956 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
10957 retries use the same buffer location.
10958 (But all of the contents must be
10959 copied!)
10960 [Bodo Moeller]
10961
10962 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
10963 worked.
10964
10965 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
10966 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
10967
10968 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
10969 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
10970 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
10971 [Steve Henson]
10972
10973 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
10974 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
10975 test programs.
10976 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
10977
10978 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
10979 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
10980 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
10981 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
10982 point to the end.
10983 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
10984 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
10985
10986 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
10987 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
10988 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
10989 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
10990 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
10991 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
10992 [Steve Henson]
10993
10994 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
10995 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
10996 necessary function names.
10997 [Steve Henson]
10998
10999 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
11000 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
11001 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
11002 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
11003 [Bodo Moeller]
11004
11005 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
11006 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
11007 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
11008 [Steve Henson]
11009
11010 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
11011 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
11012 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
11013 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
11014 such programs?)
11015 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
11016 need locks.
11017 [Bodo Moeller]
11018
11019 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
11020 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
11021 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
11022 [Bodo Moeller]
11023
11024 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
11025 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
11026 appropriate.
11027 [Bodo Moeller]
11028
11029 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
11030 for the encoded length.
11031 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
11032
11033 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
11034 [Steve Henson]
11035
11036 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
11037 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
11038 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
11039 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
11040 [Steve Henson]
11041
11042 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
11043 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
11044 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11045
11046 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
11047 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
11048 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
11049 unusual formatting.
11050 [Steve Henson]
11051
11052 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
11053 to use the new extension code.
11054 [Steve Henson]
11055
11056 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
11057 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
11058 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
11059 constant.
11060 [Steve Henson]
11061
11062 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
11063 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
11064 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
11065 [Bodo Moeller]
11066
11067 #if 0
11068 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
11069 [Ben Laurie]
11070 #else
11071 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
11072 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
11073 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
11074 #endif
11075
11076 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
11077 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
11078 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
11079 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
11080 [Ben Laurie]
11081
11082 *) DES library cleanups.
11083 [Ulf Möller]
11084
11085 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
11086 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
11087 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
11088 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
11089 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
11090 of v2.0.
11091 [Steve Henson]
11092
11093 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
11094 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
11095 [Bodo Moeller]
11096
11097 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
11098 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
11099 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
11100 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
11101 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
11102 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
11103 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
11104 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
11105 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
11106 [Steve Henson]
11107
11108 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
11109 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
11110 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
11111 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
11112 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
11113 value doesn't matter.
11114 [Steve Henson]
11115
11116 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
11117 support mutable.
11118 [Ben Laurie]
11119
11120 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
11121 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
11122 "linux-sparc" configuration.
11123 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
11124
11125 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
11126 [Ulf Möller]
11127
11128 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
11129 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
11130 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
11131
11132 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
11133 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
11134
11135 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
11136 [Ben Laurie]
11137
11138 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
11139 [Ben Laurie]
11140
11141 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
11142 [Ben Laurie]
11143
11144 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
11145 [Bodo Moeller]
11146
11147
11148 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
11149
11150 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
11151
11152 *) Updated some demos.
11153 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
11154
11155 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
11156 [Wu Zhigang]
11157
11158 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
11159 [Steve Henson]
11160
11161 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
11162 [Steve Henson]
11163
11164 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
11165 instead of using a fixed path.
11166 [Bodo Moeller]
11167
11168 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
11169 [Andy Polyakov]
11170
11171 *) Improvements for VMS support.
11172 [Richard Levitte]
11173
11174
11175 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
11176
11177 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
11178 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
11179 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11180
11181 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
11182 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
11183 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
11184 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
11185 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
11186 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
11187 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
11188 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
11189 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
11190 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
11191 [Steve Henson]
11192
11193 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
11194 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
11195 [Steve Henson]
11196
11197 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
11198 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
11199 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
11200 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
11201 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
11202
11203 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
11204 [Bodo Moeller]
11205
11206 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
11207 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
11208 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
11209 [Steve Henson]
11210
11211 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
11212 [Ben Laurie]
11213
11214 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
11215 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
11216 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
11217 key elements as negative integers.
11218 [Steve Henson]
11219
11220 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
11221 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11222
11223 *) VMS support.
11224 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
11225
11226 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
11227 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
11228 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
11229 [Steve Henson]
11230
11231 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
11232 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
11233 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
11234 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
11235 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
11236 [Bodo Moeller]
11237
11238 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
11239 [Ulf Möller]
11240
11241 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
11242 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
11243 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
11244 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11245
11246 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
11247 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
11248 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
11249
11250 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
11251 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
11252 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
11253 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
11254 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
11255 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
11256 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
11257 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
11258 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
11259
11260 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
11261 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
11262 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
11263 does not influence s as it used to.
11264
11265 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
11266 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
11267 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
11268 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
11269 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
11270 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
11271 [Bodo Moeller]
11272
11273 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
11274 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
11275 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
11276 key type.
11277 [Steve Henson]
11278
11279 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
11280 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
11281 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
11282 and 'x509').
11283 [Steve Henson]
11284
11285 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
11286 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
11287 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
11288 extension option.
11289 [Steve Henson]
11290
11291 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
11292 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
11293 [Ben Laurie]
11294
11295 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
11296 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
11297
11298 *) Support Mingw32.
11299 [Ulf Möller]
11300
11301 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
11302 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11303
11304 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
11305 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11306
11307 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
11308 [Ulf Möller]
11309
11310 *) Update HPUX configuration.
11311 [Anonymous]
11312
11313 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
11314 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11315
11316 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
11317 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
11318 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
11319 DER-encoded.)
11320 [Bodo Moeller]
11321
11322 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
11323 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
11324 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
11325 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
11326 now it really counts the depth.
11327 [Bodo Moeller]
11328
11329 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
11330 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
11331 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
11332 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
11333 didn't match the private key).
11334
11335 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
11336 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
11337 connection using the SSL_CTX).
11338 [Bodo Moeller]
11339
11340 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
11341 [Ulf Möller]
11342
11343 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
11344 David Harris.
11345 [Bodo Moeller]
11346
11347 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
11348 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
11349 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
11350 [Bodo Moeller]
11351
11352 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
11353 [Bodo Moeller]
11354
11355 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
11356 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
11357 such as /usr/local/bin.
11358 [Bodo Moeller]
11359
11360 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
11361 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
11362
11363 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
11364 [Ulf Möller]
11365
11366 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
11367 extension adding in x509 utility.
11368 [Steve Henson]
11369
11370 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
11371 [Ulf Möller]
11372
11373 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
11374 prototypes.
11375 [Steve Henson]
11376
11377 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
11378 [Ulf Möller]
11379
11380 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
11381 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
11382 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
11383 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
11384 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
11385 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
11386 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
11387 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
11388 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
11389 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
11390 [Steve Henson]
11391
11392 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
11393 [Bodo Moeller]
11394
11395 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
11396 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
11397 [Bodo Moeller]
11398
11399 *) Fix some race conditions.
11400 [Bodo Moeller]
11401
11402 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
11403 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
11404 [Steve Henson]
11405
11406 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
11407 [Ulf Möller]
11408
11409 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
11410 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
11411 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
11412 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
11413
11414 *) Fix lots of warnings.
11415 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11416
11417 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
11418 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
11419 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11420
11421 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
11422 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11423
11424 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
11425 [Ulf Möller]
11426
11427 *) Fix typos in error codes.
11428 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
11429
11430 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
11431 [Ulf Möller]
11432
11433 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
11434 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11435
11436 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
11437 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
11438 [Steve Henson]
11439
11440 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
11441 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
11442 [Ben Laurie]
11443
11444 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
11445 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
11446 [Steve Henson]
11447
11448 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
11449 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
11450 [Steve Henson]
11451
11452 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
11453 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
11454 [Steve Henson]
11455
11456 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
11457 support typesafe stack.
11458 [Steve Henson]
11459
11460 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
11461 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
11462
11463 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
11464 old X509V3 handling code.
11465 [Steve Henson]
11466
11467 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
11468 [Ulf Möller]
11469
11470 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
11471 [Bodo Moeller]
11472
11473 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
11474 [Ben Laurie]
11475
11476 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
11477 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
11478
11479 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
11480 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
11481 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
11482 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
11483 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
11484 [Ben Laurie]
11485
11486 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
11487 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
11488 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
11489 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
11490 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
11491
11492 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
11493 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
11494 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
11495 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11496
11497 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
11498 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
11499 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
11500 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11501
11502 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
11503 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
11504 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
11505 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
11506 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
11507 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
11508 [Bodo Moeller]
11509
11510 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
11511 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
11512 [Bodo Moeller]
11513
11514 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
11515 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
11516 [Ulf Möller]
11517
11518 *) Tweaks to Configure
11519 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
11520
11521 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
11522 yet...
11523 [Steve Henson]
11524
11525 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
11526 [Ulf Möller]
11527
11528 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
11529 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
11530 [Ulf Möller]
11531
11532 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
11533 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
11534 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
11535 [Bodo Moeller]
11536
11537 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
11538 [Bodo Moeller]
11539
11540 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
11541 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
11542 [Steve Henson]
11543
11544 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
11545 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
11546 to library startup routines.
11547 [Steve Henson]
11548
11549 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
11550 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
11551 codes along the way.
11552 [Steve Henson]
11553
11554 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
11555 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
11556 objects to objects.h
11557 [Steve Henson]
11558
11559 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
11560 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
11561 [Steve Henson]
11562
11563 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
11564 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
11565
11566 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
11567 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
11568 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
11569
11570 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
11571 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11572 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11573
11574 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
11575 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
11576 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
11577
11578
11579 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
11580
11581 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
11582 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
11583 [Ben Laurie]
11584
11585 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
11586 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
11587 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
11588 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
11589 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
11590
11591 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
11592 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
11593 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
11594 document.
11595 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11596
11597 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
11598 Malloc, Free.
11599 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
11600
11601 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
11602 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11603
11604 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
11605 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
11606 if someone would make that last step automatic.
11607 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
11608
11609 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
11610 [Ben Laurie]
11611
11612 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
11613 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
11614 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
11615 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
11616 [Steve Henson]
11617
11618 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
11619 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
11620 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
11621 [Steve Henson]
11622
11623 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
11624 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
11625 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
11626 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
11627 installed as `perl').
11628 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11629
11630 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
11631 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11632
11633 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
11634 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
11635 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
11636 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
11637 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
11638 [Steve Henson]
11639
11640 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
11641 [Ben Laurie]
11642
11643 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
11644 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
11645 is horrible: I feel ill....
11646 [Steve Henson]
11647
11648 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
11649 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
11650 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
11651 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
11652 [Steve Henson]
11653
11654 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
11655 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11656
11657 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
11658 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
11659 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
11660 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11661
11662 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
11663 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
11664 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
11665 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
11666 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
11667 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
11668 openssl_bio.xs.
11669 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11670
11671 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
11672 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
11673
11674 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
11675 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
11676
11677 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
11678 [Ben Laurie]
11679
11680 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
11681 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
11682 in CRLs.
11683 [Steve Henson]
11684
11685 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
11686 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
11687 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
11688 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
11689 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
11690 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
11691 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
11692 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
11693 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
11694 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
11695 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11696
11697 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
11698 [Ben Laurie]
11699
11700 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
11701 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
11702 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
11703 for linking it into DSOs.
11704 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11705
11706 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
11707 Fixed.
11708 [Ben Laurie]
11709
11710 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
11711 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
11712 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
11713 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
11714 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
11715 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11716
11717 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
11718 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
11719 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
11720 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
11721 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
11722 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
11723 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11724
11725 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
11726 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
11727 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
11728 encryption.
11729 [Ben Laurie]
11730
11731 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
11732 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
11733 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
11734 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
11735 [Steve Henson]
11736
11737 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
11738 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
11739 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
11740 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
11741 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
11742 field as blank.
11743 [Steve Henson]
11744
11745 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
11746 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
11747 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
11748 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
11749 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11750
11751 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
11752 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
11753 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
11754
11755 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
11756 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
11757
11758 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
11759 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
11760 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
11761 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
11762 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
11763 [Steve Henson]
11764
11765 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
11766 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
11767 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
11768 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
11769 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
11770 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
11771 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
11772 [Ben Laurie]
11773
11774 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
11775 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
11776 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
11777 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
11778 [Ben Laurie]
11779
11780 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
11781 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
11782
11783 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
11784 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
11785 [Steve Henson]
11786
11787 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
11788 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
11789 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
11790 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
11791 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
11792 (e.g. s_server).
11793 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
11794 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
11795 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
11796 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
11797 no way to reconfigure them.
11798 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
11799 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
11800 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
11801 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
11802 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
11803 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11804
11805 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
11806 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
11807 recognized by the users.
11808 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11809
11810 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
11811 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
11812 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
11813 already masked variable.
11814 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11815
11816 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
11817 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11818
11819 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
11820 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
11821 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
11822 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11823
11824 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
11825 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
11826 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11827
11828 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
11829 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
11830 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
11831 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
11832 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
11833 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
11834 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
11835 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
11836 now, too.
11837 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11838
11839 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
11840 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
11841 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11842
11843 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
11844 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
11845 config file.
11846 [Steve Henson]
11847
11848 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
11849 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
11850
11851 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
11852 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
11853 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
11854 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
11855 [Ben Laurie]
11856
11857 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
11858 [Steve Henson]
11859
11860 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
11861 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11862
11863 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
11864 [Ben Laurie]
11865
11866 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
11867 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
11868 [Steve Henson]
11869
11870 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
11871 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
11872 [Steve Henson]
11873
11874 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
11875 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
11876 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
11877 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
11878 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
11879 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
11880 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
11881 Ben Laurie]
11882
11883 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
11884 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11885
11886 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
11887 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
11888 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
11889 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
11890 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11891
11892 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
11893 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
11894 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
11895 [Steve Henson]
11896
11897 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
11898 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
11899 an example.
11900 [Steve Henson]
11901
11902 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
11903 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
11904 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11905
11906 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
11907 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
11908 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
11909 build instructions.
11910 [Steve Henson]
11911
11912 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
11913 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
11914 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
11915 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
11916 [Steve Henson]
11917
11918 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
11919 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
11920 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
11921 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
11922 [Ben Laurie]
11923
11924 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
11925 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
11926 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
11927 so it wasn't spotted.
11928 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
11929
11930 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
11931 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
11932 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
11933 vectors if you have them.
11934 [Ben Laurie]
11935
11936 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
11937 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
11938 [Ben Laurie]
11939
11940 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
11941 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
11942 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
11943 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
11944 If you do a:
11945 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
11946 it will update them.
11947 [Steve Henson]
11948
11949 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
11950 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
11951 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
11952 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
11953 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
11954 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
11955 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
11956 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11957
11958 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
11959 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
11960 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
11961 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
11962 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
11963 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
11964 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
11965 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
11966 the crypto/md/ stuff).
11967 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11968
11969 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
11970 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
11971 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
11972 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
11973 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
11974 [Steve Henson]
11975
11976 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
11977 INTEGER code.
11978 [Steve Henson]
11979
11980 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
11981 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11982
11983 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
11984 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11985
11986 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
11987 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
11988 [Ben Laurie]
11989
11990 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
11991 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
11992
11993 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
11994 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
11995
11996 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
11997 [Steve Henson]
11998
11999 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
12000 few typos.
12001 [Steve Henson]
12002
12003 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
12004 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
12005 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
12006 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12007
12008 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12009 [Steve Henson]
12010
12011 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12012 [Steve Henson]
12013
12014 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
12015 [Steve Henson]
12016
12017 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
12018 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
12019 [Steve Henson]
12020
12021 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
12022 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
12023 CA extensions.
12024 [Steve Henson]
12025
12026 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
12027 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
12028 [Steve Henson]
12029
12030 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
12031 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
12032 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
12033 [Steve Henson]
12034
12035 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
12036 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
12037 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
12038 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
12039 properly to be processed.
12040 [Steve Henson]
12041
12042 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
12043 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
12044 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
12045 [Ben Laurie]
12046
12047 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
12048 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
12049
12050 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
12051 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
12052 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
12053 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
12054 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
12055 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
12056 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
12057 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
12058 or delete all the .err files.
12059 [Steve Henson]
12060
12061 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
12062 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
12063 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
12064 to regenerate it if needed.
12065 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
12066 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
12067
12068 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
12069 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12070
12071 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
12072 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
12073 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
12074 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
12075 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
12076 [Steve Henson]
12077
12078 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
12079 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12080
12081 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
12082 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12083
12084 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
12085 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
12086 error, but didn't set one).
12087 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12088
12089 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
12090 [Ben Laurie]
12091
12092 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
12093 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
12094 [Steve Henson]
12095
12096 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
12097 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
12098
12099 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
12100 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
12101 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
12102 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
12103 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
12104 OID is not part of the table.
12105 [Steve Henson]
12106
12107 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
12108 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
12109 [Ben Laurie]
12110
12111 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
12112 [Ben Laurie]
12113
12114 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
12115 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
12116 was "1234").
12117 [Steve Henson]
12118
12119 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
12120 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
12121
12122 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
12123 NULL pointers.
12124 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12125
12126 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
12127 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12128
12129 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
12130 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12131
12132 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
12133 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12134
12135 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
12136 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
12137 [Ben Laurie]
12138
12139 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
12140 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
12141 [Steve Henson]
12142
12143 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
12144 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12145
12146 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
12147 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12148
12149 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
12150 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12151
12152 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
12153 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12154
12155 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
12156 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
12157 unused in the certificate verification process.
12158 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12159
12160 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
12161 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
12162 [Steve Henson]
12163
12164 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
12165 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
12166 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
12167
12168 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
12169 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
12170 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
12171 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
12172 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
12173
12174 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
12175 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
12176 [Steve Henson]
12177
12178 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
12179 [Steve Henson]
12180
12181 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
12182 [Paul Sutton]
12183
12184 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
12185 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
12186
12187 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
12188 [Ben Laurie]
12189
12190 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
12191 [Ben Laurie]
12192
12193 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
12194 [Ben Laurie]
12195
12196 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
12197 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
12198 other error libraries.
12199 [Steve Henson]
12200
12201 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
12202 [Steve Henson]
12203
12204 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
12205 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
12206 be read in.
12207 [Steve Henson]
12208
12209 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
12210 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
12211 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
12212 the new set of documentation files.
12213 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12214
12215 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
12216 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
12217 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
12218 number of arguments.
12219 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
12220
12221 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
12222 [Ben Laurie]
12223
12224 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
12225 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
12226 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12227
12228 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
12229 [Ben Laurie]
12230
12231 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
12232 nextstep
12233 ncr-scde
12234 unixware-2.0
12235 unixware-2.0-pentium
12236 sco5-cc.
12237 [Ben Laurie]
12238
12239 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
12240 before they are needed.
12241 [Ben Laurie]
12242
12243 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
12244 [Ben Laurie]
12245
12246
12247 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
12248
12249 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
12250 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
12251 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12252
12253 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
12254 [Paul Sutton]
12255
12256 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
12257 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
12258 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12259
12260 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
12261 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
12262 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
12263
12264 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
12265 when "ssleay" is still not found.
12266 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12267
12268 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
12269 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
12270
12271 *) Updated the README file.
12272 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12273
12274 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
12275 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
12276 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12277
12278 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
12279 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
12280 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12281
12282 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
12283 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
12284 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
12285 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
12286 o removed obsolete TODO file
12287 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
12288 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12289
12290 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
12291 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
12292 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
12293 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
12294 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
12295 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
12296 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12297
12298 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
12299 [Mark J. Cox]
12300
12301 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
12302 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
12303 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
12304 summer 1998.
12305 [The OpenSSL Project]
12306
12307
12308 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
12309
12310 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
12311 [Eric A. Young]
12312
12313 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
12314 [Eric A. Young]
12315
12316 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
12317 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
12318 [Eric A. Young]
12319
12320 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
12321 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
12322 available).
12323 [Eric A. Young]
12324
12325 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
12326 binary structures
12327 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
12328
12329 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
12330 [Eric A. Young]
12331
12332 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
12333 [Eric A. Young]
12334
12335 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
12336 [Eric A. Young]
12337
12338 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
12339 [Eric A. Young]
12340
12341 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
12342 [Eric A. Young]
12343
12344 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
12345 [Eric A. Young]
12346
12347 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
12348 [Eric A. Young]
12349
12350 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
12351 [Eric A. Young]
12352
12353 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
12354 [Eric A. Young]
12355
12356 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
12357 [Eric A. Young]
12358
12359 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
12360 [Eric A. Young]
12361
12362 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
12363 [Eric A. Young]
12364
12365 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
12366 [Eric A. Young]
12367
12368 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
12369 [Eric A. Young]
12370
12371 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
12372 [Eric A. Young]
12373
12374 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
12375 [Eric A. Young]
12376
12377 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
12378 [Eric A. Young]
12379
12380 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
12381 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
12382 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
12383 [Eric A. Young]
12384
12385 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
12386 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
12387 [Eric A. Young]
12388
12389 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
12390 [Eric A. Young]
12391
12392 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
12393 [Eric A. Young]
12394
12395 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
