10 Changes between 1.0.2r and 1.0.2s [xx XXX xxxx]
11
12 *) Add FIPS support for Android Arm 64-bit
13
14 Support for Android Arm 64-bit was added to the OpenSSL FIPS Object Module in
15 Version 2.0.10. For some reason, the corresponding target 'android64-aarch64'
16 was missing OpenSSL 1.0.2, whence it could not be built with FIPS support on
17 Android Arm 64-bit. This omission has been fixed.

20 Changes between 1.0.2q and 1.0.2r [26 Feb 2019]
21
22 *) 0-byte record padding oracle
23
24 If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls
25 SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive one)
26 then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte
27 record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is
28 received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently
29 based on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this
30 amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data.
31
32 In order for this to be exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in
33 use. Stitched ciphersuites are optimised implementations of certain
34 commonly used ciphersuites. Also the application must call SSL_shutdown()
35 twice even if a protocol error has occurred (applications should not do
36 this but some do anyway).
37
38 This issue was discovered by Juraj Somorovsky, Robert Merget and Nimrod
39 Aviram, with additional investigation by Steven Collison and Andrew
40 Hourselt. It was reported to OpenSSL on 10th December 2018.
41 (CVE-2019-1559)
42 [Matt Caswell]
43
44 *) Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
45 [Richard Levitte]
46
47 Changes between 1.0.2p and 1.0.2q [20 Nov 2018]
48
49 *) Microarchitecture timing vulnerability in ECC scalar multiplication
50
51 OpenSSL ECC scalar multiplication, used in e.g. ECDSA and ECDH, has been
52 shown to be vulnerable to a microarchitecture timing side channel attack.
53 An attacker with sufficient access to mount local timing attacks during
54 ECDSA signature generation could recover the private key.
55
56 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th October 2018 by Alejandro
57 Cabrera Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Cesar Pereida Garcia and
58 Nicola Tuveri.
59 (CVE-2018-5407)
60 [Billy Brumley]
61
62 *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
63
64 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
65 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
66 algorithm to recover the private key.
67
68 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
69 (CVE-2018-0734)
70 [Paul Dale]
71
72 *) Resolve a compatibility issue in EC_GROUP handling with the FIPS Object
73 Module, accidentally introduced while backporting security fixes from the
74 development branch and hindering the use of ECC in FIPS mode.
75 [Nicola Tuveri]
76
77 Changes between 1.0.2o and 1.0.2p [14 Aug 2018]
78
79 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
80
81 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
82 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
83 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
84 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
85 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
86
87 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
88 (CVE-2018-0732)
89 [Guido Vranken]
90
91 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
92
93 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
94 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
95 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
96 recover the private key.
97
98 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
99 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
100 (CVE-2018-0737)
101 [Billy Brumley]
102
103 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
104 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
105 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
106 [Richard Levitte]
107
108 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
109 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
110 [Andy Polyakov]
111
112 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
113 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
114 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
115 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
116 to 2^-128.
117 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
118
119 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
120 [Kurt Roeckx]
121
122 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
123 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
124 [Matt Caswell]
125
126 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
127 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
128 [Richard Levitte]
129
130 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
131 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
132 are no longer allowed.
133 [Emilia Käsper]
134
135 Changes between 1.0.2n and 1.0.2o [27 Mar 2018]
136
137 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
138
139 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
140 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
141 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
142 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
143 so this is considered safe.
144
145 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
146 project.
147 (CVE-2018-0739)
148 [Matt Caswell]
149
150 Changes between 1.0.2m and 1.0.2n [7 Dec 2017]
151
152 *) Read/write after SSL object in error state
153
154 OpenSSL 1.0.2 (starting from version 1.0.2b) introduced an "error state"
155 mechanism. The intent was that if a fatal error occurred during a handshake
156 then OpenSSL would move into the error state and would immediately fail if
157 you attempted to continue the handshake. This works as designed for the
158 explicit handshake functions (SSL_do_handshake(), SSL_accept() and
159 SSL_connect()), however due to a bug it does not work correctly if
160 SSL_read() or SSL_write() is called directly. In that scenario, if the
161 handshake fails then a fatal error will be returned in the initial function
162 call. If SSL_read()/SSL_write() is subsequently called by the application
163 for the same SSL object then it will succeed and the data is passed without
164 being decrypted/encrypted directly from the SSL/TLS record layer.
165
166 In order to exploit this issue an application bug would have to be present
167 that resulted in a call to SSL_read()/SSL_write() being issued after having
168 already received a fatal error.
169
170 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google).
171 (CVE-2017-3737)
172 [Matt Caswell]
173
174 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
175
176 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
177 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
178 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
179 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
180 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
181 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
182 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
183 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
184 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
185 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
186
187 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
188 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
189
190 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
191 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
192 (CVE-2017-3738)
193 [Andy Polyakov]
194
195 Changes between 1.0.2l and 1.0.2m [2 Nov 2017]
196
197 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
198
199 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
200 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
201 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
202 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
203 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
204 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
205 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
206 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
207 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
208 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
209 key that is shared between multiple clients.
210
211 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
212 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
213
214 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
215 (CVE-2017-3736)
216 [Andy Polyakov]
217
218 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
219
220 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
221 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
222 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
223
224 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
225 (CVE-2017-3735)
226 [Rich Salz]
227
228 Changes between 1.0.2k and 1.0.2l [25 May 2017]
229
230 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
231 platform rather than 'mingw'.
232 [Richard Levitte]
233
234 Changes between 1.0.2j and 1.0.2k [26 Jan 2017]
235
236 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
237
238 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
239 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
240 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
241
242 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
243 (CVE-2017-3731)
244 [Andy Polyakov]
245
246 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
247
248 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
249 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
250 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
251 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
252 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
253 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
254 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
255 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
256 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
257 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
258 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
259 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
260 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
261
262 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
263 (CVE-2017-3732)
264 [Andy Polyakov]
265
266 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
267
268 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
269 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
270 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
271 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
272 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
273 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
274 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
275 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
276 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
277 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
278 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
279 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
280 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
281 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
282
283 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
284 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
285 providing reproducible case.
286 (CVE-2016-7055)
287 [Andy Polyakov]
288
289 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
290 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
291 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
292 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
293 [Matt Caswell]
294
295 Changes between 1.0.2i and 1.0.2j [26 Sep 2016]
296
297 *) Missing CRL sanity check
298
299 A bug fix which included a CRL sanity check was added to OpenSSL 1.1.0
300 but was omitted from OpenSSL 1.0.2i. As a result any attempt to use
301 CRLs in OpenSSL 1.0.2i will crash with a null pointer exception.
302
303 This issue only affects the OpenSSL 1.0.2i
304 (CVE-2016-7052)
305 [Matt Caswell]
306
307 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.0.2i [22 Sep 2016]
308
309 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
310
311 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
312 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
313 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
314 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
315 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
316 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
317 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
318
319 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
320 (CVE-2016-6304)
321 [Matt Caswell]
322
323 *) In order to mitigate the SWEET32 attack, the DES ciphers were moved from
324 HIGH to MEDIUM.
325
326 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Karthikeyan Bhargavan and Gaetan
327 Leurent (INRIA)
328 (CVE-2016-2183)
329 [Rich Salz]
330
331 *) OOB write in MDC2_Update()
332
333 An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or
334 through the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker
335 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous
336 call to EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check
337 can overflow resulting in a heap corruption.
338
339 The amount of data needed is comparable to SIZE_MAX which is impractical
340 on most platforms.
341
342 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
343 (CVE-2016-6303)
344 [Stephen Henson]
345
346 *) Malformed SHA512 ticket DoS
347
348 If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
349 DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
350 ultimately crash.
351
352 The use of SHA512 in TLS session tickets is comparatively rare as it requires
353 a custom server callback and ticket lookup mechanism.
354
355 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
356 (CVE-2016-6302)
357 [Stephen Henson]
358
359 *) OOB write in BN_bn2dec()
360
361 The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
362 This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
363 overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
364 or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
365 record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.
366
367 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
368 (CVE-2016-2182)
369 [Stephen Henson]
370
371 *) OOB read in TS_OBJ_print_bio()
372
373 The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
374 the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
375 of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are
376 presented.
377
378 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
379 (CVE-2016-2180)
380 [Stephen Henson]
381
382 *) Pointer arithmetic undefined behaviour
383
384 Avoid some undefined pointer arithmetic
385
386 A common idiom in the codebase is to check limits in the following manner:
387 "p + len > limit"
388
389 Where "p" points to some malloc'd data of SIZE bytes and
390 limit == p + SIZE
391
392 "len" here could be from some externally supplied data (e.g. from a TLS
393 message).
394
395 The rules of C pointer arithmetic are such that "p + len" is only well
396 defined where len <= SIZE. Therefore the above idiom is actually
397 undefined behaviour.
398
399 For example this could cause problems if some malloc implementation
400 provides an address for "p" such that "p + len" actually overflows for
401 values of len that are too big and therefore p + len < limit.
402
403 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken
404 (CVE-2016-2177)
405 [Matt Caswell]
406
407 *) Constant time flag not preserved in DSA signing
408
409 Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in
410 order to avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA
411 implementation means that a non-constant time codepath is followed for
412 certain operations. This has been demonstrated through a cache-timing
413 attack to be sufficient for an attacker to recover the private DSA key.
414
415 This issue was reported by César Pereida (Aalto University), Billy Brumley
416 (Tampere University of Technology), and Yuval Yarom (The University of
417 Adelaide and NICTA).
418 (CVE-2016-2178)
419 [César Pereida]
420
421 *) DTLS buffered message DoS
422
423 In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order
424 those messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered
425 for later use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that
426 those messages do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake
427 has been completed. An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to
428 remain in the buffer when they are no longer required. These messages will
429 be cleared when the DTLS connection is closed. The default maximum size for
430 a message is 100k. Therefore the attacker could force an additional 1500k
431 to be consumed per connection. By opening many simulataneous connections an
432 attacker could cause a DoS attack through memory exhaustion.
433
434 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Quan Luo.
435 (CVE-2016-2179)
436 [Matt Caswell]
437
438 *) DTLS replay protection DoS
439
440 A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records
441 that arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before
442 the MAC for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an
443 attacker by sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to
444 decrypt or have a valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means
445 that all subsequent legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of
446 service for a specific DTLS connection.
447
448 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OCAP audit team.
449 (CVE-2016-2181)
450 [Matt Caswell]
451
452 *) Certificate message OOB reads
453
454 In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result
455 in OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a
456 theoretical DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common
457 platforms.
458
459 The messages affected are client certificate, client certificate request
460 and server certificate. As a result the attack can only be performed
461 against a client or a server which enables client authentication.
462
463 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
464 (CVE-2016-6306)
465 [Stephen Henson]
466
467 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
468
469 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
470
471 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
472 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
473 AES-NI.
474
475 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
476 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
477 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
478 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
479 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
480 bytes.
481
482 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
483 (CVE-2016-2107)
484 [Kurt Roeckx]
485
486 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
487
488 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
489 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
490 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
491 corruption.
492
493 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarly used by
494 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
495 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
496 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
497 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
498 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
499
500 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
501 (CVE-2016-2105)
502 [Matt Caswell]
503
504 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
505
506 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
507 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
508 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
509 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
510 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
511 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
512 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
513 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
514 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
515 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
516 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
517 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
518 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
519 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
520 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
521 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.

524 (CVE-2016-2106)
525 [Matt Caswell]
526
527 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
528
529 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
530 a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
531 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
532
533 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
534 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
535 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
536 applications are not affected.
537
538 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
539 (CVE-2016-2109)
540 [Stephen Henson]
541
542 *) EBCDIC overread
543
544 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
545 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
546 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
547
548 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
549 (CVE-2016-2176)
550 [Matt Caswell]
551
552 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
553 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
554 [Todd Short]
555
556 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
557 default.
558 [Kurt Roeckx]
559
560 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
561 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
562 [Kurt Roeckx]
563
564 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
565
566 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
567 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
568 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
569 [Viktor Dukhovni]
570
571 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
572 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
573 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
574 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
575 will need to explicitly call either of:
576
577 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
578 or
579 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
580
581 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
582 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
583 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
584 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
585 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
586 (CVE-2016-0800)
587 [Viktor Dukhovni]
588
589 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
590
591 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
592 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
593 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
594 considered rare.
595
596 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
597 libFuzzer.
598 (CVE-2016-0705)
599 [Stephen Henson]
600
601 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
602
603 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
604
605 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
606 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
607 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
608 is configured.
609
610 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
611 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
612 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
613 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
614 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
615 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
616 that of a valid user.
617 (CVE-2016-0798)
618 [Emilia Käsper]
619
620 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
621
622 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
623 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
624 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
625 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
626 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
627 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
628 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
629 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
630 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
631 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
632 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
633
634 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
635 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
636 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
637 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
638 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
639
640 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
641 (CVE-2016-0797)
642 [Matt Caswell]
643
644 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
645
646 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
647 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
648 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
649
650 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
651 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
652 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
653 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
654 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
655 also occur.
656
657 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
658 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
659 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
660 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
661 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
662 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
663 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
664 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
665 as command line arguments.
666
667 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
668 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
669 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
670
671 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
672 (CVE-2016-0799)
673 [Matt Caswell]
674
675 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
676
677 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
678 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
679 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
680 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
681 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
682
683 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
684 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
685 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
686 http://cachebleed.info.

690 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
691 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
692 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
693 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
694 [Emilia Käsper]
695
696 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
697
698 *) DH small subgroups
699
700 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
701 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
702 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
703 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
704 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
705 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
706 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
707 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
708 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
709 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
710
711 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
712 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
713 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
714 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
715 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
716
717 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
718 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
719 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
720 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
721
722 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
723 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
724
725 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
726 (CVE-2016-0701)
727 [Matt Caswell]
728
729 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
730
731 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
732 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
733 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
734 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
735
736 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
737 and Sebastian Schinzel.

745
746 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
747
748 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
749 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
750 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
751 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
752 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
753 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
754 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
755 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
756 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
757 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
758 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
759 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

761 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
762 (CVE-2015-3193)
763 [Andy Polyakov]
764
765 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
766
767 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
768 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
769 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
770 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
771 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
772 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
773 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
774 authentication.

779
780 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
781
782 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
783 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
784 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
785 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.

802 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
803
804 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
805
806 During certificate verfification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
807 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
808 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
809 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
810 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
811 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
812

816 [Matt Caswell]
817
818 *) Race condition handling PSK identify hint
819
820 If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then
821 the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
822 result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the
823 identify hint data.

834
835 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
836
837 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
838 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
839 field.
840
841 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
842 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
843 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
844 client authentication enabled.
845
846 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
847 (CVE-2015-1788)
848 [Andy Polyakov]
849
850 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
851
852 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
853 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
854 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
855 time string.
856
857 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
858 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
859 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
860 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
861 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
862 callbacks.

868
869 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
870
871 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
872 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
873 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
874
875 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
876 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
877 servers are not affected.

883 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
884
885 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop

900
901 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
902 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
903 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
904 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
905 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
906 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
907 [Matt Caswell]

920
921 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
922 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
923 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.

928 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
929
930 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
931
932 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
933 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
934 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
935 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
936 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
937 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
938 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
939 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
940
941 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
942 (CVE-2015-0290)
943 [Matt Caswell]
944
945 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
946
947 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
948 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
949 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
950 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
951 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
952 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
953 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
954 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
955 server.

961 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
962
963 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
964 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
965 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
966 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
967 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
968 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
969 (CVE-2015-0286)
970 [Stephen Henson]
971
972 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
973
974 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
975 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
976 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
977 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
978 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
979 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
980 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.

985
986 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
987
988 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
989 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
990 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
991
992 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
993 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related

1003 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
1004
1005 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or

1035 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
1036 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
1037 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
1038 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
1039 SSL_client_methodv23)
1040 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
1041 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
1042
1043 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
1044 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
1045 output may be predictable.
1046
1047 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
1048 succeed on an unpatched platform:
1049
1050 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
1051 (CVE-2015-0285)
1052 [Matt Caswell]
1053
1054 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
1055
1056 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
1057 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
1058 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
1059 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
1060 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
1061 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
1062
1063 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
1064 commit 517073cd4b.
1065 (CVE-2015-0209)
1066 [Matt Caswell]
1067
1068 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
1069
1070 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
1071 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
1072
1073 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
1074 (CVE-2015-0288)
1075 [Stephen Henson]
1076
1077 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
1078 [Kurt Roeckx]
1079
1080 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
1081
1082 *) Change RSA and DH/DSA key generation apps to generate 2048-bit
1083 keys by default.
1084 [Kurt Roeckx]
1085
1086 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
1087 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
1088 So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
1089 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
1090 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
1091 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
1092 [Andy Polyakov]
1093
1094 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
1095 (other platforms pending).
1096 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
1097
1098 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
1099 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
1100 [Rob Stradling]
1101
1102 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1103 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1104 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1105 [Bodo Moeller]
1106
1107 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
1108 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
1109 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
1110 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
1111 [Andy Polyakov]
1112
1113 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
1114 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
1115
1116 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
1117 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
1118 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
1119 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
1120 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
1121
1122 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
1123 [Andy Polyakov]
1124
1125 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
1126 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
1127 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
1128 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
1129
1130 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
1131 RSAZ.
1132 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
1133
1134 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
1135 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
1136 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
1137 for TLS encrypt.
1138
1139 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
1140 [Andy Polyakov]
1141
1142 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
1143 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
1144 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
1145 [Steve Henson]
1146
1147 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1148 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1149 [Steve Henson]
1150
1151 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1152 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1153 [Steve Henson]
1154
1155 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1156 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1157 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1158 algorithms and include tests cases.
1159 [Steve Henson]
1160
1161 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
1162 structure.
1163 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
1164
1165 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
1166 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
1167 [Steve Henson]
1168
1169 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
1170 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
1171 summary of the connection parameters.
1172 [Steve Henson]
1173
1174 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
1175 of connection parameters.
1176 [Steve Henson]
1177
1178 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
1179 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
1180
1181 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
1182 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
1183 [Steve Henson]
1184
1185 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
1186 [Steve Henson]
1187
1188 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
1189 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
1190 [Steve Henson]
1191
1192 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
1193 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
1194 [Steve Henson]
1195
1196 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
1197 certificates.
1198 [Steve Henson]
1199
1200 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
1201 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
1202 CRLs using the OCSP API.
1203 [Steve Henson]
1204
1205 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
1206 [Steve Henson]
1207
1208 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
1209 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
1210 [Steve Henson]
1211
1212 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
1213 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
1214 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
1215 tracing.
1216 [Steve Henson]
1217
1218 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
1219 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
1220 [Steve Henson]
1221
1222 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
1223 OID NID.
1224 [Steve Henson]
1225
1226 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
1227 client to OpenSSL.
1228 [Steve Henson]
1229
1230 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
1231 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
1232 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
1233 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
1234 [Steve Henson]
1235
1236 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
1237 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
1238 [Steve Henson]
1239
1240 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
1241 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
1242 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
1243 comparison.
1244 [Steve Henson]
1245
1246 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
1247 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
1248 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
1249 use the certificate.
1250 [Steve Henson]
1251
1252 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
1253 [Steve Henson]
1254
1255 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
1256 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
1257 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
1258 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
1259 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
1260 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
1261 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
1262
1263 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
1264 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
1265
1266 [Steve Henson]
1267
1268 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
1269 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
1270 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
1271 [Steve Henson]
1272
1273 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
1274 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
1275 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
1276 supported signature algorithms.
1277 [Steve Henson]
1278
1279 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
1280 [Steve Henson]
1281
1282 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
1283 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
1284 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
1285 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
1286 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
1287 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
1288 certificate and specify the whole chain.
1289 [Steve Henson]
1290
1291 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
1292 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
1293 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
1294 to have similar checks in it.
1295
1296 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
1297 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
1298 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
1299 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
1300 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
1301 [Steve Henson]
1302
1303 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
1304 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
1305 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
1306 shared signature algorithms.
1307 [Steve Henson]
1308
1309 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
1310 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
1311 to support them.
1312 [Steve Henson]
1313
1314 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
1315 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
1316 it couldn't be removed.
1317 [Steve Henson]
1318
1319 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
1320 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
1321 [Steve Henson]
1322
1323 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
1324 functions. Add manual page.
1325 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
1326
1327 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
1328 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
1329 a certificate.
1330 [Steve Henson]
1331
1332 *) Fix OCSP checking.
1333 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
1334
1335 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
1336 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
1337 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
1338 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
1339 utility) or reject.
1340 [Steve Henson]
1341
1342 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
1343 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
1344 [Steve Henson]
1345
1346 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
1347 platform support for Linux and Android.
1348 [Andy Polyakov]
1349
1350 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
1351 [Andy Polyakov]
1352
1353 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1354 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
1355 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
1356 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
1357 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
1358 [Steve Henson]
1359
1360 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
1361 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
1362 the new parameter format automatically.
1363 [Steve Henson]
1364
1365 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
1366 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
1367 [Steve Henson]
1368
1369 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
1370 [Steve Henson]
1371
1372 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
1373 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
1374 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
1375 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
1376 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
1377 [Steve Henson]
1378
1379 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
1380 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
1381 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
1382 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
1383 to set list of supported curves.
1384 [Steve Henson]
1385
1386 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
1387 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
1388 to print out received values.
1389 [Steve Henson]
1390
1391 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
1392 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
1393 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
1394 [Steve Henson]
1395
1396 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
1397 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
1398 [Steve Henson]
1399
1400 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
1401 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
1402 [Steve Henson]
1403
1404 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
1405 certificates.
1406 [Steve Henson]
1407
1408 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
1409 the certificate.
1410 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
1411 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
1412 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
1413
1414 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
1415
1416 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
1417 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
1418
1419 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
1420
1421 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
1422 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
1423 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
1424 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
1425 (CVE-2014-3571)
1426 [Steve Henson]
1427
1428 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
1429 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
1430 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
1431 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
1432 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
1433 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
1434 (CVE-2015-0206)
1435 [Matt Caswell]
1436
1437 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
1438 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
1439 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
1440 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
1441 (CVE-2014-3569)
1442 [Kurt Roeckx]
1443
1444 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
1445 ECDH ciphersuites.
1446
1447 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
1448 reporting this issue.
1449 (CVE-2014-3572)
1450 [Steve Henson]
1451
1452 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
1453 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
1454 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
1455 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
1456 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
1457 INRIA or reporting this issue.
1458 (CVE-2015-0204)
1459 [Steve Henson]
1460
1461 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
1462 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
1463 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
1464 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
1465 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
1466 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
1467 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
1468 this issue.
1469 (CVE-2015-0205)
1470 [Steve Henson]
1471
1472 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
1473 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
1474
1475 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
1476 and can vary with the CTX.
1477 [Adam Langley]
1478
1479 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
1480
1481 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
1482 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
1483 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
1484 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
1485 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
1486
1487 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
1488
1489 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
1490 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
1491
1492 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
1493
1494 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
1495 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
1496 errors for some broken certificates.
1497
1498 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
1499
1500 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
1501
1502 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
1503 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
1504
1505 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
1506 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
1507 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
1508 (negative or with leading zeroes).
1509
1510 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
1511 of the OpenSSL core team.
1512
1513 (CVE-2014-8275)
1514 [Steve Henson]
1515
1516 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
1517 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
1518 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
1519 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
1520 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
1521 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
1522 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
1523 the OpenSSL core team.
1524 (CVE-2014-3570)
1525 [Andy Polyakov]
1526
1527 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
1528 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
1529 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
1530 sanity and breaks all known clients.
1531 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
1532
1533 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
1534 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
1535 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
1536 [Emilia Käsper]
1537
1538 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
1539 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
1540 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1541 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
1542 announced in the initial ServerHello.
1543
1544 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
1545 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1546 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.

1549 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
1550
1551 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
1552
1553 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
1554 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
1555 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
1556 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
1557 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
1558 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
1559 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
1560
1561 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
1562 (CVE-2014-3513)
1563 [OpenSSL team]
1564
1565 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
1566
1567 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
1568 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
1569 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
1570 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
1571 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
1572 attack.
1573 (CVE-2014-3567)
1574 [Steve Henson]
1575
1576 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
1577
1578 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
1579 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
1580 configured to send them.
1581 (CVE-2014-3568)
1582 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
1583
1584 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
1585 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
1586 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
1587 (CVE-2014-3566)
1588 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1589
1590 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
1591
1592 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
1593 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
1594 DigestInfo structures.
1595
1596 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
1597
1598 [Steve Henson]
1599
1600 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
1601
1602 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
1603 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
1604 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
1605
1606 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
1607 Group for discovering this issue.
1608 (CVE-2014-3512)
1609 [Steve Henson]
1610
1611 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
1612 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
1613 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
1614 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
1615 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
1616
1617 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
1618 researching this issue.
1619 (CVE-2014-3511)
1620 [David Benjamin]
1621
1622 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
1623 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
1624 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
1625 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
1626
1627 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
1628 issue.
1629 (CVE-2014-3510)
1630 [Emilia Käsper]
1631
1632 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
1633 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1634 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1635 (CVE-2014-3507)
1636 [Adam Langley]
1637
1638 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
1639 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
1640 Denial of Service attack.
1641 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1642 (CVE-2014-3506)
1643 [Adam Langley]
1644
1645 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
1646 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
1647 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1648 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
1649 this issue.
1650 (CVE-2014-3505)
1651 [Adam Langley]
1652
1653 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
1654 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
1655 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
1656
1657 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
1658 issue.
1659 (CVE-2014-3509)
1660 [Gabor Tyukasz]
1661
1662 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
1663 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
1664 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
1665 Denial of Service attack.
1666
1667 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
1668 discovering and researching this issue.
1669 (CVE-2014-5139)
1670 [Steve Henson]
1671
1672 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
1673 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
1674 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
1675 output to the attacker.
1676
1677 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
1678 (CVE-2014-3508)
1679 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
1680
1681 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1682 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1683 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1684 [Bodo Moeller]
1685
1686 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
1687
1688 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
1689 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
1690 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
1691
1692 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
1693 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
1694 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
1695
1696 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
1697 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
1698 in a DoS attack.
1699
1700 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
1701 (CVE-2014-0221)
1702 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
1703
1704 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
1705 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
1706 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
1707 code on a vulnerable client or server.
1708
1709 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
1710 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
1711
1712 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
1713 are subject to a denial of service attack.
1714
1715 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
1716 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
1717 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
1718
1719 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1720 compilation flags.
1721 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1722
1723 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1724 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1725 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1726
1727 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1728 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1729
1730 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
1731
1732 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1733 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1734 server.
1735
1736 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1737 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1738 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1739 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1740
1741 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1742 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1743 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1744 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1745
1746 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1747 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1748 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1749
1750 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
1751
1752 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
1753 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
1754 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
1755 is at least 512 bytes long.
1756
1757 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
1758
1759 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
1760
1761 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
1762 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
1763 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
1764 (CVE-2013-4353)
1765
1766 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
1767 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
1768 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
1769 [Steve Henson]
1770
1771 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
1772 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
1773 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
1774 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
1775 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
1776 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
1777 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
1778
1779 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
1780
1781 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
1782 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
1783 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1784
1785 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
1786
1787 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1788
1789 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1790 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1791 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1792
1793 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1794 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1795 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1796 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1797 (CVE-2013-0169)
1798 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1799
1800 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
1801 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
1802 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
1803 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
1804 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
1805 (CVE-2012-2686)
1806 [Adam Langley]
1807
1808 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1809 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1810 [Steve Henson]
1811
1812 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1813 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1814
1815 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1816 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1817 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1818 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1819 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1820
1821 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1822 [Steve Henson]
1823
1824 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
1825 if renegotiating.
1826 [Steve Henson]
1827
1828 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
1829
1830 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
1831 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
1832
1833 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1834 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1835 (CVE-2012-2333)
1836 [Steve Henson]
1837
1838 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1839 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1840 [Steve Henson]
1841
1842 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
1843 approved.
1844 [Steve Henson]
1845
1846 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
1847
1848 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
1849 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
1850 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
1851 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
1852 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
1853 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
1854 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
1855 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
1856 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
1857 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
1858 [Steve Henson]
1859
1860 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
1861 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
1862 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
1863 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
1864 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
1865 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
1866 client side.
1867 [Andy Polyakov]
1868
1869 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
1870
1871 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1872 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1873 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1874
1875 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1876 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1877 (CVE-2012-2110)
1878 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1879
1880 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
1881 [Adam Langley]
1882
1883 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
1884 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
1885
1886 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
1887 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
1888 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
1889 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
1890 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
1891 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
1892 Most broken servers should now work.
1893 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
1894 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
1895 [Steve Henson]
1896
1897 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
1898 [Andy Polyakov]
1899
1900 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
1901
1902 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
1903 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
1904 [Steve Henson]
1905
1906 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
1907 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
1908 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
1909 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
1910 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
1911 [Steve Henson]
1912
1913 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
1914 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
1915 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
1916 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
1917 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
1918 [Steve Henson]
1919
1920 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
1921 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1922
1923 *) Add support for SCTP.
1924 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1925
1926 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1927 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1928
1929 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
1930
1931 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
1932 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
1933 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
1934 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
1935 - s390x: z196 support;
1936 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
1937
1938 [Andy Polyakov]
1939
1940 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
1941 (removal of unnecessary code)
1942 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
1943
1944 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
1945 [Eric Rescorla]
1946
1947 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
1948 [Eric Rescorla]
1949
1950 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
1951 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
1952 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
1953 by Google.
1954 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1955
1956 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
1957 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
1958 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
1959 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
1960 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
1961
1962 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
1963 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
1964 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
1965
1966 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
1967 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
1968 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
1969
1970 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
1971 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
1972 implementations).
1973 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1974
1975 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
1976 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
1977 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
1978 [Steve Henson]
1979
1980 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
1981 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
1982 particular PSS.
1983 [Steve Henson]
1984
1985 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
1986 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
1987 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
1988 [Steve Henson]
1989
1990 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
1991 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
1992 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
1993 the appropriate parameters.
1994 [Steve Henson]
1995
1996 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
1997 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
1998 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
1999 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
2000 against a number of sample certificates.
2001 [Steve Henson]
2002
2003 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
2004 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
2005
2006 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
2007 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
2008
2009 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
2010 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
2011 parameters r, s.
2012 [Steve Henson]
2013
2014 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
2015 RFC3211.
2016 [Steve Henson]
2017
2018 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
2019 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
2020 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
2021 password based CMS).
2022 [Steve Henson]
2023
2024 *) Session-handling fixes:
2025 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
2026 but also support Session Tickets.
2027 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
2028 presented a ticket with an expired session.
2029 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
2030 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
2031 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
2032 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2033
2034 *) Fix PSK session representation.
2035 [Bodo Moeller]
2036
2037 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
2038
2039 This work was sponsored by Intel.
2040 [Andy Polyakov]
2041
2042 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
2043 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
2044 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
2045 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
2046 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
2047 [Steve Henson]
2048
2049 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
2050 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
2051 [Steve Henson]
2052
2053 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
2054 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
2055 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
2056 [Steve Henson]
2057
2058 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
2059 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
2060 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
2061 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
2062 [Steve Henson]
2063
2064 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
2065 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
2066 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
2070 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
2071
2072 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
2073 [Steve Henson]
2074
2075 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
2076 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
2077 [Steve Henson]
2078
2079 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2080 [Steve Henson]
2081
2082 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
2083 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
2084 [Steve Henson]
2085
2086 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
2087 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
2088 [Steve Henson]
2089
2090 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
2091 [Steve Henson]
2092
2093 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
2094 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
2095 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
2096 [Steve Henson]
2097
2098 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
2099 [Steve Henson]
2100
2101 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
2102 [Steve Henson]
2103
2104 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
2105 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
2106 [Steve Henson]
2107
2108 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
2109 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
2110 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
2111 [Steve Henson]
2112
2113 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
2114 [Steve Henson]
2115
2116 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
2117 and enable MD5.
2118 [Steve Henson]
2119
2120 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
2121 FIPS modules versions.
2122 [Steve Henson]
2123
2124 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
2125 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
2126 until after the certificate request message is received.
2127 [Steve Henson]
2128
2129 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
2130 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
2131 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
2132 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
2133 [Steve Henson]
2134
2135 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
2136 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
2137 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
2138 support yet and no support for client certificates.
2139 [Steve Henson]
2140
2141 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
2142 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
2143 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
2144 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
2145 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
2146 and version checking.
2147 [Steve Henson]
2148
2149 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
2150 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
2151 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
2152 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
2153 [Steve Henson]
2154
2155 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
2156 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
2157 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
2158 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
2159 Ben Laurie]
2160
2161 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
2162 [Steve Henson]
2163
2164 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
2165 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
2166 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
2167
2168 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
2169 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
2170 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
2171 [Steve Henson]
2172
2173 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
2174 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
2175
2176 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
2177 a few changes are required:
2178
2179 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
2180 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
2181 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
2182 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
2183 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
2184 [Steve Henson]
2185
2186 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
2187
2188 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2189 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2190 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2191 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2192 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2193 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2194 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2195 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2196 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2197 [Steve Henson]
2198
2199 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2200 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2201 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2202 [Steve Henson]
2203
2204 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
2205
2206 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2207 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2208 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2209 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2210 [Antonio Martin]
2211
2212 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
2213
2214 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2215 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2216 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2217 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2218 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2219 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2220 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2221 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2222 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2223 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2224 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2225 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2226 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2227
2228 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2229 (CVE-2011-4576)
2230 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2231
2232 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2233 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2234 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2235 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2236
2237 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
2238 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
2239
2240 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2241 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2242 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2243 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2244
2245 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
2246 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
2247
2248 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2249 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2250
2251 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2252 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2253
2254 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2255 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2256 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2257
2258 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2259 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2260 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2261
2262 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2263 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2264 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2265 the last update always remained unused).
2266 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2267
2268 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
2269 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
2270
2271 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
2272
2273 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
2274 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
2275 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
2276
2277 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2278 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
2279 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2280
2281 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2282 [Bodo Moeller]
2283
2284 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
2285 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
2286 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
2287 [Steve Henson]
2288
2289 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2290 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2291
2292 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2293
2294 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2295
2296 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
2297
2298 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2299 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2300
2301 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2302 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2303 ambiguous.
2304 [Steve Henson]
2305
2306 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
2307
2308 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2309 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2310 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2311 [Steve Henson]
2312
2313 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2314 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2315 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2316 [Ben Laurie]
2317
2318 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
2319
2320 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2321 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2322 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2323 [Steve Henson]
2324
2325 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
2326 a DLL.
2327 [Steve Henson]
2328
2329 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
2330
2331 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
2332 (CVE-2010-1633)
2333 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
2334
2335 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
2336
2337 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
2338 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
2339 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
2340 [Steve Henson]
2341
2342 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
2343 [Steve Henson]
2344
2345 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
2346 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
2347 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
2348
2349 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
2350 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
2351 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
2352 [Steve Henson]
2353
2354 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
2355 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
2356 [Steve Henson]
2357
2358 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
2359 some responders need this.
2360 [Steve Henson]
2361
2362 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
2363 correctly.
2364 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2365
2366 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
2367 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
2368 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
2369 [Steve Henson]
2370
2371 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
2372 [Steve Henson]
2373
2374 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
2375 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
2376 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
2377 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
2378 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
2379 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
2380 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
2381 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
2382 [Steve Henson]
2383
2384 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
2385 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
2386 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
2387 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2388
2389 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
2390 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
2391
2392 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
2393 be used on C++.
2394 [Steve Henson]
2395
2396 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
2397 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
2398 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
2399 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
2400 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
2401 attempting to work them out.
2402 [Steve Henson]
2403
2404 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
2405 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
2406 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
2407 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
2408 [Steve Henson]
2409
2410 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
2411 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
2412 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
2413 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
2414 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
2415 [Steve Henson]
2416
2417 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
2418 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
2419 you can do:
2420
2421 openssl sha256 foo
2422
2423 as well as:
2424
2425 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
2426
2427 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
2428
2429 [Steve Henson]
2430
2431 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
2432 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2433
2434 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
2435 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
2436
2437 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
2438 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
2439 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
2440 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
2441 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
2442 [Steve Henson]
2443
2444 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
2445 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
2446 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
2447 [Steve Henson]
2448
2449 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
2450 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
2451 [Steve Henson]
2452
2453 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
2454 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
2455
2456 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
2457 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
2458 [Steve Henson]
2459
2460 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
2461 [Ben Laurie]
2462
2463 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
2464 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
2465 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
2466 CONF_VALUE.
2467 [Ben Laurie]
2468
2469 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
2470 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
2471 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
2472 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
2473 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
2474 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
2475 [Steve Henson]
2476
2477 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
2478 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
2479
2480 This work was sponsored by Google.
2481 [Steve Henson]
2482
2483 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
2484 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
2485 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
2486 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
2487 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
2488 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
2489 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
2490 default.
2491
2492 This work was sponsored by Google.
2493 [Steve Henson]
2494
2495 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
2496
2497 This work was sponsored by Google.
2498 [Steve Henson]
2499
2500 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
2501 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
2502 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
2503 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.

2506 [Steve Henson]
2507
2508 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
2509 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
2510 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
2511 CRL functionality in future.
2512

2514 [Steve Henson]
2515
2516 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
2517
2518 This work was sponsored by Google.
2519 [Steve Henson]
2520
2521 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
2522 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
2523
2524 This work was sponsored by Google.
2525 [Steve Henson]
2526
2527 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
2528 and URI types are currently supported.
2529
2530 This work was sponsored by Google.
2531 [Steve Henson]
2532
2533 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
2534 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
2535 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
2536 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
2537 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
2538 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
2539 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
2540 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
2541
2542 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
2543 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
2544 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
2545
2546 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
2547 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
2548 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
2549 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
2550
2551 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
2552 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
2553 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
2554 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
2555 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
2556 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
2557 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
2558 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
2559 of &errno.)
2560 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
2561
2562 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
2563 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
2564 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
2565
2566 This work was sponsored by Google.
2567 [Steve Henson]
2568
2569 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
2570 [Ben Laurie]
2571
2572 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2573 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
2574 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
2575 [Ben Laurie]
2576
2577 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
2578 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
2579 [Nick Mathewson]
2580
2581 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2582 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
2583 [Ben Laurie]
2584
2585 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
2586 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
2587 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
2588 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
2589 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
2590 content types and variants.
2591 [Steve Henson]
2592
2593 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
2594 [Steve Henson]
2595
2596 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
2597 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
2598 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
2599 files from the associated perl scripts.
2600 [Steve Henson]
2601
2602 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
2603 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
2604 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2605
2606 *) s390x assembler pack.
2607 [Andy Polyakov]
2608
2609 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
2610 "family."
2611 [Andy Polyakov]
2612
2613 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
2614 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
2615 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
2616 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
2617 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
2618 to use. For example, specify an option
2619
2620 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
2621
2622 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
2623 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
2624 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
2625 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
2626 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
2627 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
2628
2629 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
2630 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
2631 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
2632 return non-zero for success.
2633
2634 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
2635 by using
2636
2637 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
2638 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2639
2640 where
2641
2642 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
2643 void *arg;
2644
2645 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
2646 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
2647 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
2648 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
2649 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
2650 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
2651 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
2652 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
2653 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
2654
2655 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
2656 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
2657 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
2658 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
2659 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
2660 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
2661
2662 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
2663 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
2664 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
2665 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
2666 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
2667 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
2668
2669 [Bodo Moeller]
2670
2671 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
2672 MAC.
2673
2674 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2675
2676 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2677 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2678 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2679 supported.
2680
2681 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2682 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2683 SSL_SESSION.
2684
2685 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2686 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2687 with no application modification.
2688
2689 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2690 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2691
2692 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2693 or server extensions to be examined.
2694
2695 This work was sponsored by Google.
2696 [Steve Henson]
2697
2698 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
2699 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
2700 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
2701
2702 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
2703 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
2704 ciphersuite support.
2705 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
2706
2707 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
2708 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
2709 to output in BER and PEM format.
2710 [Steve Henson]
2711
2712 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
2713 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
2714 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2715 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
2716 -macopt options to dgst utility.
2717 [Steve Henson]
2718
2719 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
2720 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
2721 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
2722 utility.
2723 [Steve Henson]
2724
2725 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
2726 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
2727 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
2728 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
2729 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
2730 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
2731 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
2732 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
2733 enabled again.
2734
2735 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
2736 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
2737 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
2738 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
2739
2740 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
2741 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
2742 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
2743 the default order.
2744 [Bodo Moeller]
2745
2746 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
2747 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
2748 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
2749 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
2750 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
2751 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
2752 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
2753 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
2754 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
2755
2756 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
2757 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
2758 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
2759 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
2760 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
2761 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
2762 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
2763 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
2764 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
2765 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
2766 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
2767 kinds of kludges.
2768
2769 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
2770 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
2771 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
2772
2773 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
2774 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
2775 "CAMELLIA256".
2776 [Bodo Moeller]
2777
2778 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
2779 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
2780 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
2781 [Nils Larsch]
2782
2783 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
2784 it yet and it is largely untested.
2785 [Steve Henson]
2786
2787 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
2788 [Nils Larsch]
2789
2790 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
2791 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
2792 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
2793 [Steve Henson]
2794
2795 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
2796 [Andy Polyakov]
2797
2798 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
2799 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
2800 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
2801 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
2802 [Steve Henson]
2803
2804 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
2805 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
2806 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
2807 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
2808 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
2809 [Steve Henson]
2810
2811 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
2812 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
2813 [Cryptocom]
2814
2815 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
2816 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
2817 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
2818 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
2819 [Steve Henson]
2820
2821 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
2822 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
2823 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
2824 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
2825 [Steve Henson]
2826
2827 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
2828 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
2829 [Steve Henson]
2830
2831 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
2832 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
2833 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
2834 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
2835 [Steve Henson]
2836
2837 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
2838 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
2839 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
2840 [Steve Henson]
2841
2842 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
2843 utility.
2844 [Steve Henson]
2845
2846 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
2847 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
2848 [Steve Henson]
2849
2850 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
2851 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
2852 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
2853 if necessary.
2854 [Steve Henson]
2855
2856 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
2857 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
2858 to free up any added signature OIDs.
2859 [Steve Henson]
2860
2861 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
2862 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
2863 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
2864 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
2865 [Steve Henson]
2866
2867 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
2868 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
2869 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
2870 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
2871 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
2872 the array representation useful in a more general context.
2873 [Douglas Stebila]
2874
2875 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
2876 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
2877 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
2878 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
2879 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
2880
2881 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
2882 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
2883 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
2884 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
2885 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
2886 protocol).
2887
2888 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
2889 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
2890 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
2891 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
2892
2893 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
2894 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
2895 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
2896 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
2897 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
2898
2899 aECDH - ECDH cert
2900 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
2901 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
2902
2903 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
2904 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
2905
2906 [Bodo Moeller]
2907
2908 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
2909 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
2910 [Steve Henson]
2911
2912 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
2913 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
2914 [Steve Henson]
2915
2916 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
2917 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
2918 functional reference processing.
2919 [Steve Henson]
2920
2921 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
2922 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
2923 process.
2924 [Steve Henson]
2925
2926 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
2927 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
2928 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
2929 [Steve Henson]
2930
2931 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
2932 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
2933 application to support multiple signers.
2934 [Steve Henson]
2935
2936 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
2937 digest MAC.
2938 [Steve Henson]
2939
2940 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
2941 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
2942 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
2943 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
2944 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
2945 [Steve Henson]
2946
2947 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
2948 new API.
2949 [Steve Henson]
2950
2951 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
2952 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
2953 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
2954 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
2955 a no op.
2956 [Steve Henson]
2957
2958 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
2959 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
2960 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
2961 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
2962 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
2963 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
2964 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
2965 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
2966 [Steve Henson]
2967
2968 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
2969 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
2970 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
2971 between digests and public key types.
2972 [Steve Henson]
2973
2974 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
2975 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
2976 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
2977 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
2978 [Steve Henson]
2979
2980 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
2981 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
2982 key ASN1 method.
2983 [Steve Henson]
2984
2985 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
2986 [Steve Henson]
2987
2988 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
2989 pkeyutl.
2990 [Steve Henson]
2991
2992 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
2993 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
2994 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
2995 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
2996 pkey, genpkey.
2997 [Steve Henson]
2998
2999 *) BeOS support.
3000 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
3001
3002 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
3003 manual pages.
3004 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
3005
3006 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
3007 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
3008 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
3009 functionality for RSA.
3010 [Steve Henson]
3011
3012 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
3013 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
3014 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
3015 [Steve Henson]
3016
3017 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
3018 key API, doesn't do much yet.
3019 [Steve Henson]
3020
3021 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
3022 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
3023 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
3024 [Steve Henson]
3025
3026 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
3027 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
3028 [Douglas Stebila]
3029
3030 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
3031 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
3032 [Steve Henson]
3033
3034 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
3035 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
3036 type.
3037 [Steve Henson]
3038
3039 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
3040 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
3041 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
3042 structure.
3043 [Steve Henson]
3044
3045 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
3046 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
3047 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
3048 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
3049 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
3050 of public and private key structures.
3051 [Steve Henson]
3052
3053 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
3054 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
3055 [Douglas Stebila]
3056
3057 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
3058 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
3059 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
3060
3061 New ciphersuites:
3062 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
3063 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
3064
3065 New functions:
3066 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
3067 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
3068 SSL_get_psk_identity
3069 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
3070
3071 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
3072
3073 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
3074 and response verification functionality.
3075 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
3076
3077 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3078 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3079 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3080 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3081 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3082 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3083 server_name extension.
3084
3085 New functions (subject to change):
3086
3087 SSL_get_servername()
3088 SSL_get_servername_type()
3089 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3090
3091 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3092
3093 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3094 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3095 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3096 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3097 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3098
3099 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3100
3101 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3102 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3103 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3104 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3105 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
3106 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3107 option.
3108
3109 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
3110
3111 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
3112 [Andy Polyakov]
3113
3114 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
3115 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
3116 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
3117 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
3118 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
3119 [Andy Polyakov]
3120
3121 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
3122 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
3123 macro.
3124 [Bodo Moeller]
3125
3126 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
3127 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
3128 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
3129 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
3130 [Andy Polyakov]
3131
3132 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
3133 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
3134 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
3135 using the maximum available value.
3136 [Steve Henson]
3137
3138 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
3139 in addition to the text details.
3140 [Bodo Moeller]
3141
3142 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
3143 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
3144 handle several customised structures at all.
3145 [Steve Henson]
3146
3147 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
3148 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
3149 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
3150 [Steve Henson]
3151
3152 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
3153 [Steve Henson]
3154
3155 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
3156 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
3157 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
3158 [Steve Henson]
3159
3160 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
3161 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
3162 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
3163 [Nils Larsch]
3164
3165 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
3166 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
3167 all fields.
3168 [Steve Henson]
3169
3170 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
3171 [Steve Henson]
3172
3173 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
3174 [NTT]
3175
3176 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
3177
3178 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
3179 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
3180 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
3181 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
3182 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
3183 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
3184 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
3185 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
3186
3187 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
3188 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
3189 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
3190
3191 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
3192
3193 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
3194 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
3195
3196 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
3197 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
3198 [Bodo Moeller]
3199
3200 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
3201 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
3202 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
3203 [Steve Henson]
3204
3205 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
3206 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
3207 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
3208 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
3209 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
3210 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
3211 [Steve Henson]
3212
3213 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
3214 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
3215 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
3216 [Steve Henson]
3217
3218 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
3219 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
3220 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
3221 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
3222 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
3223 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
3224 CVE-2009-4355.
3225 [Steve Henson]
3226
3227 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
3228 change when encrypting or decrypting.
3229 [Bodo Moeller]
3230
3231 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
3232 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
3233 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
3234 [Steve Henson]
3235
3236 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
3237 [Steve Henson]
3238
3239 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
3240 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
3241 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
3242 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
3243 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
3244 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
3245 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
3246 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
3247 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
3248 [Steve Henson]
3249
3250 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
3251 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
3252 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
3253 [Steve Henson]
3254
3255 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
3256 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
3257 [Steve Henson]
3258
3259 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
3260 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
3261 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
3262 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
3263 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
3264 know what you are doing.
3265 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
3266
3267 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
3268 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
3269 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
3270 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
3271 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
3272 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
3273 the handshake.
3274 [Steve Henson]
3275
3276 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
3277 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
3278 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
3279 correctly.
3280 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
3281
3282 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
3283 warnings in other configurations.
3284 [Steve Henson]
3285
3286 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
3287 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
3288 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
3289 systems need.
3290 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
3291
3292 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
3293 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
3294 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
3295
3296 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
3297 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
3298 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
3299 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
3300 [Steve Henson]
3301
3302 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
3303 and restored.
3304 [Steve Henson]
3305
3306 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
3307 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
3308 clash.
3309 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
3310
3311 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
3312 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
3313 other than a simple chain.
3314 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
3315
3316 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
3317 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
3318 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
3319 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
3320 [Steve Henson]
3321
3322 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
3323 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
3324 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
3325 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
3326 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
3327 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
3328 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
3329 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
3330 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
3331
3332 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
3333 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
3334 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
3335 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
3336 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
3337 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
3338 (CVE-2009-1377)
3339 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
3340
3341 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
3342 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
3343 [Daniel Mentz]
3344
3345 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
3346 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
3347
3348 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
3349 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
3350
3351 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
3352
3353 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
3354 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
3355 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
3356 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
3357 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
3358 you're doing.
3359 [Ben Laurie]
3360
3361 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
3362
3363 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
3364 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
3365 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
3366 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
3367
3368 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
3369 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
3370 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
3371 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3372
3373 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
3374 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
3375 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
3376 [Steve Henson]
3377
3378 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
3379 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
3380 level.
3381 [Steve Henson]
3382
3383 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
3384 to handle some structures.
3385 [Steve Henson]
3386
3387 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
3388 for a '\n'
3389 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
3390
3391 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
3392 [Matthieu Herrb]
3393
3394 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
3395 [Steve Henson]
3396
3397 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
3398 [Steve Henson]
3399
3400 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
3401 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
3402 chosen compiler.
3403 [Ben Laurie]
3404
3405 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
3406
3407 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
3408 (CVE-2008-5077).
3409 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
3410
3411 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
3412 [Ben Laurie]
3413
3414 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
3415 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
3416 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
3417 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
3418
3419 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
3420 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
3421
3422 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
3423 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
3424 [Bodo Moeller]
3425
3426 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
3427 s_client and s_server.
3428 [Ben Laurie]
3429
3430 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
3431 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3432
3433 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
3434 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
3435
3436 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
3437 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
3438 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
3439 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
3440 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
3441 [Bodo Moeller]
3442
3443 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
3444
3445 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
3446 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
3447 [PR #1679]
3448
3449 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
3450 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
3451 [Nagendra Modadugu]
3452
3453 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
3454 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
3455 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
3456 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
3457
3458 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
3459 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
3460
3461 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
3462
3463 *) Various precautionary measures:
3464
3465 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
3466
3467 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
3468 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
3469 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
3470
3471 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
3472 outside the expected range.
3473
3474 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
3475 builds.
3476
3477 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
3478
3479 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
3480 the load fails. Useful for distros.
3481 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
3482
3483 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
3484 [Steve Henson]
3485
3486 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
3487 [Huang Ying]
3488
3489 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
3490
3491 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3492 [Steve Henson]
3493
3494 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
3495 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
3496 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
3497
3498 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3499 [Steve Henson]
3500
3501 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
3502 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
3503 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
3504 files.
3505 [Steve Henson]
3506
3507 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
3508
3509 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
3510 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
3511 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
3512 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
3513
3514 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
3515 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
3516 [Joe Orton]
3517
3518 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
3519
3520 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
3521 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
3522 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
3523
3524 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
3525
3526 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
3527 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
3528 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
3529 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
3530 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3531
3532 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
3533 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
3534 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
3535 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
3536 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
3537 invalid read after the end of 'db').
3538 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3539
3540 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
3541
3542 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
3543 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
3544 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
3545 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
3546 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
3547
3548 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
3549 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
3550
3551 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
3552 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
3553 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
3554 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
3555 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
3556
3557 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
3558
3559 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
3560 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
3561 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
3562 sets may exist with different names.
3563 [Steve Henson]
3564
3565 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
3566 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
3567 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
3568 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
3569 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
3570 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
3571 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
3572 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
3573 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
3574 implementation.
3575 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
3576
3577 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
3578 implemention in the following ways:
3579
3580 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
3581 hard coded.
3582
3583 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
3584 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
3585 ignored for embedded content.
3586
3587 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
3588 with the enable-cms configuration option.
3589 [Steve Henson]
3590
3591 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
3592 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
3593 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
3594 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
3595
3596 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
3597 uncompresses any data passed through it.
3598 [Steve Henson]
3599
3600 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
3601 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
3602 [Steve Henson]
3603
3604 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
3605 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
3606 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
3607 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
3608 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
3609 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
3610 data.
3611 [Steve Henson]
3612
3613 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
3614 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
3615 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3616
3617 *) Netware support:
3618
3619 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
3620 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
3621 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
3622 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
3623 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
3624 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
3625 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
3626 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
3627 platform
3628 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
3629 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
3630 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
3631 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
3632 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
3633 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
3634 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
3635
3636 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
3637 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
3638 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
3639 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
3640 to s_client and s_server.
3641 [Steve Henson]
3642
3643 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
3644
3645 *) Fix various bugs:
3646 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
3647 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
3648 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
3649 + Fix ia64 assembler code
3650 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3651
3652 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
3653
3654 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
3655 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
3656 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
3657 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
3658 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
3659 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
3660 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
3661 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
3662 [Andy Polyakov]
3663
3664 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
3665 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
3666 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
3667 Steve Henson]
3668
3669 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3670 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3671 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3672 supported.
3673
3674 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3675 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3676 SSL_SESSION.
3677
3678 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3679 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3680 with no application modification.
3681
3682 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3683 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3684
3685 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3686 or server extensions to be examined.
3687
3688 This work was sponsored by Google.
3689 [Steve Henson]
3690
3691 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3692 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3693 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3694 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3695 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3696 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3697 server_name extension.
3698
3699 New functions (subject to change):
3700
3701 SSL_get_servername()
3702 SSL_get_servername_type()
3703 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3704
3705 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3706
3707 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3708 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3709 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3710 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3711 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3712
3713 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3714
3715 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3716 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3717 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3718 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3719 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
3720 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3721 option.
3722
3723 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
3724
3725 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
3726 [Steve Henson]
3727
3728 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
3729 [Andy Polyakov]
3730
3731 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
3732 (which previously caused an internal error).
3733 [Bodo Moeller]
3734
3735 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
3736 [Ben Laurie]
3737
3738 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
3739 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
3740
3741 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
3742 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
3743 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
3744
3745 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
3746 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
3747 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
3748 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
3749
3750 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3751 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3752 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
3753 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
3754
3755 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
3756 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
3757 information. For detailed background information, see
3758 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
3759 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
3760 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
3761 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
3762 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
3763 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
3764 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
3765 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
3766 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
3767 remove a conditional branch.
3768
3769 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
3770 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
3771 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
3772 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
3773 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
3774 remains as a deprecated alias.
3775
3776 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
3777 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
3778 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
3779 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
3780
3781 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
3782 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
3783 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
3784 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
3785 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
3786 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
3787 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
3788 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
3789
3790 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
3791
3792 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
3793 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
3794 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
3795 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
3796 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
3797 with applications using a single external cache for quite
3798 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
3799 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
3800 in a different context.
3801 [Bodo Moeller]
3802
3803 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3804 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3805 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3806 [Bodo Moeller]
3807
3808 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
3809 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
3810 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
3811
3812 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
3813
3814 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
3815 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
3816 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3817 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
3818 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
3819 [Victor Duchovni]
3820
3821 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
3822 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
3823 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
3824 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
3825 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
3826 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
3827 [Bodo Moeller]
3828
3829 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3830 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3831 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3832 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3833 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3834 [Bodo Moeller]
3835
3836 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
3837 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
3838
3839 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3840 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3841 Improve header file function name parsing.
3842 [Steve Henson]
3843
3844 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
3845 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
3846 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
3847
3848 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
3849
3850 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3851 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3852 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3853
3854 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3855 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3856
3857 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3858 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3859
3860 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3861 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3862 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3863
3864 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
3865 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
3866 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
3867 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
3868 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
3869 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
3870 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
3871 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
3872 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
3873
3874 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
3875 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
3876 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
3877 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
3878 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
3879
3880 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
3881 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
3882 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
3883 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
3884 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
3885 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
3886 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
3887 multiple values to extend the available space.
3888
3889 [Bodo Moeller]
3890
3891 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
3892
3893 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3894 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3895
3896 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3897 [Ben Laurie]
3898
3899 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3900 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3901 undesirable limitations.
3902 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3903
3904 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3905 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3906 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3907 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3908 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3909 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3910 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3911 [Bodo Moeller]
3912
3913 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3914
3915 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3916 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3917 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3918
3919 The latter two were purportedly from
3920 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3921 appear there.
3922
3923 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3924 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3925 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3926 [Bodo Moeller]
3927
3928 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3929 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3930 [Bodo Moeller]
3931
3932 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3933 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3934 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3935 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3936
3937 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3938 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3939 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3940 [NTT]
3941
3942 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3943 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3944 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3945 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3946 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3947 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3948 [Steve Henson]
3949
3950 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3951
3952 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3953 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3954 [Steve Henson]
3955
3956 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3957 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3958
3959 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3960 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3961 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3962 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3963 [Douglas Stebila]
3964
3965 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3966 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3967 [Steve Henson]
3968
3969 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3970 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3971 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3972 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3973 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3974 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3975 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3976 can't be loaded.
3977 [Steve Henson]
3978
3979 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3980 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3981 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3982 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3983 [Steve Henson]
3984
3985 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3986 under VC++ build system.
3987 [Steve Henson]
3988
3989 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3990 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3991 [Richard Levitte]
3992
3993 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3994
3995 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3996 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3997 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3998 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3999 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4000
4001 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4002 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4003 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4004
4005 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
4006 [Steve Henson]
4007
4008 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
4009 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
4010 [Nils Larsch]
4011
4012 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
4013 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
4014
4015 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
4016 [Nick Mathewson]
4017
4018 *) Extended Windows CE support.
4019 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
4020
4021 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
4022 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
4023 [Steve Henson]
4024
4025 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
4026 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
4027 smime utility.
4028 [Steve Henson]
4029
4030 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
4031
4032 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4033 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4034
4035 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
4036 [Richard Levitte]
4037
4038 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
4039 key into the same file any more.
4040 [Richard Levitte]
4041
4042 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
4043 [Andy Polyakov]
4044
4045 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
4046 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
4047
4048 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
4049 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
4050 [Richard Levitte]
4051
4052 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
4053 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
4054 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
4055 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
4056 this only applies when building 'shared'.
4057 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
4058
4059 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
4060 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
4061 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
4062 [Steve Henson]
4063
4064 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
4065 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
4066 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
4067 - add new function for parameter creation
4068 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
4069 BN_BLINDING parameters
4070 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
4071 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
4072 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
4073 threads.
4074 [Nils Larsch]
4075
4076 *) Add support for DTLS.
4077 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
4078
4079 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
4080 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
4081 [Walter Goulet]
4082
4083 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
4084 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
4085 [Nils Larsch]
4086
4087 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
4088 the apps/openssl applications.
4089 [Nils Larsch]
4090
4091 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
4092 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
4093 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
4094 [Ben Laurie]
4095
4096 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
4097 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
4098
4099 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
4100 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
4101
4102 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
4103 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
4104 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
4105 avoid this algorithm.)
4106
4107 [Bodo Moeller]
4108
4109 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
4110 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
4111 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
4112 [Richard Levitte]
4113
4114 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
4115 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
4116 [Andy Polyakov]
4117
4118 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
4119 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
4120 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
4121 pod file:
4122
4123 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
4124
4125 The blank line is mandatory.
4126
4127 [Steve Henson]
4128
4129 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
4130 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
4131 sources.
4132 [Steve Henson]
4133
4134 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
4135 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
4136
4137 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
4138 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
4139 to support policy checking and print out.
4140 [Steve Henson]
4141
4142 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
4143 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
4144 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
4145 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
4146
4147 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
4148 [Geoff Thorpe]
4149
4150 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
4151 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
4152
4153 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
4154 implementation contributed by IBM.
4155 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
4156
4157 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
4158 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
4159 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
4160 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
4161
4162 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
4163 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
4164
4165 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
4166 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
4167 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
4168 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
4169 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
4170 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
4171 [Steve Henson]
4172
4173 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
4174 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
4175 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
4176 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
4177 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
4178 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
4179 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
4180 [Geoff Thorpe]
4181
4182 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
4183 [Steve Henson]
4184
4185 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
4186 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
4187 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
4188 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
4189 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
4190 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
4191 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
4192 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
4193 [Steve Henson]
4194
4195 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
4196 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
4197 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
4198 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
4199 [Steve Henson]
4200
4201 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
4202 syntax:
4203
4204 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
4205 [Steve Henson]
4206
4207 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
4208 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
4209 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
4210 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
4211 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
4212 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
4213 BN_CTX's "bundling".
4214 [Geoff Thorpe]
4215
4216 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
4217 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
4218 [Geoff Thorpe]
4219
4220 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
4221 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
4222 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
4223 [Steve Henson]
4224
4225 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
4226 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
4227 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
4228 below).
4229 [Geoff Thorpe]
4230
4231 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
4232 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
4233 [Richard Levitte]
4234
4235 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
4236 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
4237 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
4238 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
4239 [Geoff Thorpe]
4240
4241 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
4242 initialised value as BN_new().
4243 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
4244
4245 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
4246 [Steve Henson]
4247
4248 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
4249 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
4250 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
4251 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
4252 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
4253 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
4254 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
4255 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
4256 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
4257 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
4258 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
4259 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
4260 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
4261 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
4262 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
4263
4264 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
4265 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
4266 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
4267 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
4268 [Geoff Thorpe]
4269
4270 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
4271 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
4272 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
4273 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
4274 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
4275 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
4276 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
4277 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
4278 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
4279 [Geoff Thorpe]
4280
4281 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
4282 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
4283 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
4284 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
4285 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
4286 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
4287 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
4288 [Geoff Thorpe]
4289
4290 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
4291 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
4292 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
4293 these have been updated also.
4294 [Geoff Thorpe]
4295
4296 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
4297 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
4298 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
4299 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
4300 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
4301 functions.
4302 [Steve Henson]
4303
4304 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
4305 structure of type "other".
4306 [Steve Henson]
4307
4308 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
4309 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
4310 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
4311 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
4312 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
4313 situation in the script.
4314 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4315
4316 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
4317 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
4318 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
4319 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
4320 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
4321 used as premaster secret.
4322 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4323
4324 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
4325 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
4326 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4327
4328 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
4329 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
4330
4331 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
4332 control of the error stack.
4333 [Richard Levitte]
4334
4335 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
4336 [Richard Levitte]
4337
4338 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
4339 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
4340 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
4341 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
4342 [Richard Levitte]
4343
4344 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
4345 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
4346 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
4347 [Richard Levitte]
4348
4349 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
4350 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
4351 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
4352 a memory area.
4353 [Richard Levitte]
4354
4355 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
4356 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
4357 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
4358 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
4359 [Richard Levitte]
4360
4361 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
4362 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
4363 the following flags are defined:
4364
4365 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
4366 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
4367 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
4368 number.
4369
4370 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
4371 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
4372 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
4373 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
4374 returns zero.
4375 [Richard Levitte]
4376
4377 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
4378 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
4379 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
4380 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
4381 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
4382 [Richard Levitte]
4383
4384 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
4385 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
4386 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
4387 [Richard Levitte]
4388
4389 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4390 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4391 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4392 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4393 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4394 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4395 [Richard Levitte]
4396
4397 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
4398 req and dirName.
4399 [Steve Henson]
4400
4401 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
4402 [Steve Henson]
4403
4404 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
4405 [Steve Henson]
4406
4407 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
4408 [Steve Henson]
4409
4410 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
4411 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
4412 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
4413 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
4414 default implementation more easily.
4415 [Geoff Thorpe]
4416
4417 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
4418 in config files.
4419 [Steve Henson]
4420
4421 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
4422 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
4423 [Richard Levitte]
4424
4425 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
4426 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
4427 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
4428 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
4429
4430 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
4431 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
4432 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
4433 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
4434 [Steve Henson]
4435
4436 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
4437 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
4438 to do it.
4439 [Richard Levitte]
4440
4441 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
4442 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
4443 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
4444 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
4445 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
4446 scalar * generator).
4447 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
4448
4449 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
4450 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
4451 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
4452 correctly.
4453 [Steve Henson]
4454
4455 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
4456 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
4457 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
4458 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
4459 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
4460 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
4461 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
4462 linker additions, eg;
4463 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
4464 [Geoff Thorpe]
4465
4466 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
4467 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
4468 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
4469 [Geoff Thorpe]
4470
4471 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4472 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4473 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
4474 via PR#459)
4475 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4476
4477 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
4478 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
4479 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
4480 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
4481 [Geoff Thorpe]
4482
4483 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
4484 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
4485 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
4486 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
4487 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
4488 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
4489 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
4490 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
4491 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
4492 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
4493
4494 Example for using the new callback interface:
4495
4496 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
4497 void *my_arg = ...;
4498 BN_GENCB my_cb;
4499
4500 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
4501
4502 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
4503 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
4504 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
4505 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
4506 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
4507 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
4508 */
4509
4510 [Geoff Thorpe]
4511
4512 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
4513 available to TLS with the number defined in
4514 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
4515 [Richard Levitte]
4516
4517 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
4518 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
4519
4520 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
4521 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4522 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4523 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
4524
4525 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
4526 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
4527
4528 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
4529 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
4530 well.
4531 [Richard Levitte]
4532
4533 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
4534 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
4535 [Richard Levitte]
4536
4537 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
4538 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
4539 and a macro that behave like
4540 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
4541
4542 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
4543 [Nils Larsch]
4544
4545 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
4546 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
4547 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
4548 if applicable.
4549 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4550
4551 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
4552 [Bodo Moeller]
4553
4554 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
4555 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
4556 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
4557 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
4558 directory engines/.
4559 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
4560 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
4561 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
4562 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
4563 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
4564 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
4565 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
4566 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
4567
4568 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
4569 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
4570 [Richard Levitte]
4571
4572 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
4573 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
4574
4575 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
4576 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
4577 files while avoiding the low level API.
4578
4579 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
4580 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
4581 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
4582 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
4583
4584 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
4585 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
4586 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
4587 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
4588 instead of the low level API.
4589 [Steve Henson]
4590
4591 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
4592 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
4593 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
4594 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
4595 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
4596 PKCS#7 code.
4597
4598 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
4599 down to the template encoder.
4600 [Steve Henson]
4601
4602 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
4603 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
4604 [Bodo Moeller]
4605
4606 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
4607 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
4608 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
4609 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4610
4611 *) Add ECDH engine support.
4612 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4613
4614 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
4615 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4616
4617 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
4618 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
4619 [Bodo Moeller]
4620
4621 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
4622 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
4623 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
4624 [Bodo Moeller]
4625
4626 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
4627 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
4628
4629 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4630 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4631
4632 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
4633 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
4634 New EC_METHOD:
4635
4636 EC_GF2m_simple_method
4637
4638 New API functions:
4639
4640 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
4641 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
4642 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
4643 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4644 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4645 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
4646
4647 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
4648 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
4649 enable it).
4650
4651 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
4652 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
4653 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
4654 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
4655 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
4656 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
4657 various internal method names.)
4658
4659 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
4660 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
4661
4662 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4663 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4664
4665 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
4666 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
4667
4668 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
4669 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
4670 methods are undefined.
4671
4672 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4673 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4674
4675 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
4676 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
4677 length of the modulus.
4678
4679 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4680 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4681
4682 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
4683 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
4684
4685 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4686 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4687
4688 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
4689 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
4690 used) in the following functions [macros]:
4691
4692 BN_GF2m_add
4693 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
4694 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
4695 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
4696 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
4697 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
4698 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
4699 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
4700 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
4701 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
4702
4703 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
4704 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
4705
4706 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
4707 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
4708 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
4709 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
4710 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
4711 where
4712 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
4713 This applies to the following functions:
4714
4715 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
4716 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
4717 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
4718 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
4719 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
4720 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
4721 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
4722 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
4723 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4724 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4725
4726 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
4727
4728 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4729 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4730
4731 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
4732
4733 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
4734 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
4735 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
4736 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
4737 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
4738
4739 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4740 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4741
4742 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
4743 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
4744 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
4745
4746 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
4747 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
4748
4749 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
4750 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
4751 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
4752 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
4753 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4754
4755 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
4756 functions
4757 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
4758 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
4759 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
4760 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
4761 These control ASN1 encoding details:
4762 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
4763 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
4764 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
4765 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
4766 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
4767 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
4768 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
4769
4770 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
4771 functions
4772 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
4773 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
4774 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
4775 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
4776 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4777
4778 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
4779 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
4780 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
4781 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4782
4783 *) Add functions
4784 EC_POINT_point2bn()
4785 EC_POINT_bn2point()
4786 EC_POINT_point2hex()
4787 EC_POINT_hex2point()
4788 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
4789 EC_POINT_oct2point().
4790 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4791
4792 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
4793 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
4794 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
4795 EC_GROUP_get_order()
4796 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
4797 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
4798 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
4799 adding different types of curves.
4800 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
4801
4802 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
4803 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
4804 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
4805 [Bodo Moeller]
4806
4807 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
4808 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
4809
4810 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
4811 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
4812 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
4813 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4814
4815 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
4816
4817 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
4818 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
4819
4820 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
4821 library. Most notably,
4822 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
4823 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
4824 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
4825 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
4826 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
4827 extracted before the specific public key;
4828 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
4829 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4830
4831 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
4832 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
4833 function
4834 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
4835 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
4836 EC_get_builtin_curves().
4837 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
4838 accessed via
4839 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
4840 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
4841 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
4842
4843 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4844 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4845 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4846 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4847 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4848 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4849 differing sizes.
4850 [Richard Levitte]
4851
4852 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
4853
4854 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
4855 sensitive data.
4856 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
4857
4858 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4859 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4860 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4861 [Bodo Moeller]
4862
4863 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
4864 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4865 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
4866 [Victor Duchovni]
4867
4868 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
4869 [Steve Henson]
4870
4871 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
4872 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
4873 [Steve Henson]
4874
4875 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
4876 run algorithm test programs.
4877 [Steve Henson]
4878
4879 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
4880 [Steve Henson]
4881
4882 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4883 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4884 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4885 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4886 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4887 [Bodo Moeller]
4888
4889 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4890 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4891 [Steve Henson]
4892
4893 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
4894
4895 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4896 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4897 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4898
4899 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4900 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4901
4902 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4903 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4904
4905 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4906 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4907 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4908
4909 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4910 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4911 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4912 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4913 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4914 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4915 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4916 [Bodo Moeller]
4917
4918 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4919
4920 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4921 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4922
4923 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4924 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4925 undesirable limitations.
4926 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4927
4928 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4929
4930 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4931 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4932 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4933
4934 The latter two were purportedly from
4935 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4936 appear there.
4937
4938 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4939 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4940 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4941 [Bodo Moeller]
4942
4943 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4944 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4945 [Bodo Moeller]
4946
4947 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4948
4949 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4950 module in FIPS mode.
4951 [Steve Henson]
4952
4953 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4954 [Steve Henson]
4955
4956 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4957 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4958 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4959 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4960 [Steve Henson]
4961
4962 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4963
4964 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4965 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4966 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4967 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4968 the difference induced by this change.
4969 [Andy Polyakov]
4970
4971 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4972
4973 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4974 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4975 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4976 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4977 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4978
4979 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4980 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4981 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4982
4983 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4984 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4985 [Steve Henson]
4986
4987 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4988 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4989 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4990 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4991 biased k.)
4992 [Bodo Moeller]
4993
4994 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4995 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4996 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4997 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4998 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4999
5000 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
5001 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
5002 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
5003 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
5004 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
5005 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
5006
5007 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
5008
5009 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
5010 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
5011 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
5012 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
5013 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
5014 [Bodo Moeller]
5015
5016 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
5017 clients need.
5018 [Steve Henson]
5019
5020 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
5021 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
5022 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
5023 [Steve Henson]
5024
5025 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
5026 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
5027 structures constant.
5028 [Steve Henson]
5029
5030 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
5031
5032 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5033 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5034
5035 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
5036 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
5037 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
5038 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
5039 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
5040 some needed definitions.
5041 [Steve Henson]
5042
5043 *) Undo Cygwin change.
5044 [Ulf Möller]
5045
5046 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
5047 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
5048 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
5049 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
5050 [Richard Levitte]
5051
5052 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
5053
5054 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
5055 server and client random values. Previously
5056 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
5057 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
5058
5059 This change has negligible security impact because:
5060
5061 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
5062 data.
5063
5064 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
5065 handshake.
5066
5067 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
5068 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
5069 values.
5070
5071 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
5072 to our attention.
5073
5074 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
5075
5076 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
5077 [Ulf Möller]
5078
5079 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
5080 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
5081 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
5082
5083 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
5084 [Steve Henson]
5085
5086 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
5087 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
5088 [Andy Polyakov]
5089
5090 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
5091 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
5092 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
5093
5094 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
5095 [Steve Henson]
5096
5097 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
5098 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
5099 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
5100 certificates.
5101 [Steve Henson]
5102
5103 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
5104 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
5105 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
5106 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
5107
5108 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
5109 has chosen to ignore this fault)
5110 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
5111 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
5112 been given)
5113 [Richard Levitte]
5114
5115 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
5116
5117 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
5118 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
5119 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
5120 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
5121 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
5122 [Steve Henson]
5123
5124 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
5125 [Steve Henson]
5126
5127 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
5128 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
5129
5130 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
5131 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
5132 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
5133 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
5134 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
5135 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
5136 rather than being initialized to 1.
5137 [Steve Henson]
5138
5139 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
5140
5141 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5142 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5143 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5144
5145 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
5146 (CVE-2004-0112)
5147 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5148
5149 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
5150 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
5151 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
5152 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
5153 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
5154 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
5155 [Richard Levitte]
5156
5157 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
5158 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
5159 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
5160 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
5161 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
5162 for these cases.
5163 [Steve Henson]
5164
5165 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
5166 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
5167 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
5168 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
5169 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
5170 [Steve Henson]
5171
5172 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
5173 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
5174 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
5175 < 0.9.7.
5176 [Steve Henson]
5177
5178 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
5179 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5180
5181 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
5182 [Steve Henson]
5183
5184 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
5185
5186 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5187
5188 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
5189 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
5190
5191 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
5192
5193 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5194 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
5195
5196 [Steve Henson]
5197
5198 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
5199 exiting on the first error in a request.
5200 [Steve Henson]
5201
5202 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5203 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5204 specifications.
5205 [Steve Henson]
5206
5207 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5208 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5209 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
5210 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
5211
5212 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
5213 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5214 [Richard Levitte]
5215
5216 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
5217 blocks during encryption.
5218 [Richard Levitte]
5219
5220 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
5221 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
5222 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
5223 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
5224 certain size.
5225 [Steve Henson]
5226
5227 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
5228 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
5229 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
5230 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
5231 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
5232 parser.
5233 [Steve Henson]
5234
5235 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
5236
5237 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5238 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5239 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5240 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5241 [Bodo Moeller]
5242
5243 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5244 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5245 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5246 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5247 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5248
5249 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5250 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5251 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5252 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5253 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5254 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5255 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5256 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5257 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5258 [Bodo Moeller]
5259
5260 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
5261 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
5262 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
5263 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
5264 [Geoff Thorpe]
5265
5266 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
5267 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
5268 [Ulf Moeller]
5269
5270 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
5271
5272 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5273 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
5274 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5275 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
5276 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
5277
5278 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
5279 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
5280 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
5281
5282 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
5283 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
5284 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
5285 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
5286 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
5287
5288 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
5289 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
5290 used by default when no-err is given.
5291 [Richard Levitte]
5292
5293 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
5294 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
5295
5296 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
5297 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
5298 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
5299 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
5300 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
5301
5302 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
5303 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
5304 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
5305 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
5306
5307 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
5308
5309 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
5310
5311 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
5312
5313 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
5314 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
5315 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
5316 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
5317 root is omitted).
5318 [Steve Henson]
5319
5320 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
5321 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
5322
5323 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
5324 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
5325 [Steve Henson]
5326
5327 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
5328 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
5329 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
5330 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
5331 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5332
5333 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
5334 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
5335 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
5336 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
5337 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
5338 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
5339 followup to PR #377.
5340 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5341
5342 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
5343 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
5344 [Andy Polyakov]
5345
5346 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
5347 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
5348 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
5349 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
5350
5351 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
5352
5353 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
5354 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
5355
5356 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
5357 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
5358 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
5359 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
5360 client and server.
5361 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
5362 PR #377.
5363 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5364
5365 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
5366 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
5367 removed entirely.
5368 [Richard Levitte]
5369
5370 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
5371 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
5372 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
5373 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
5374 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
5375 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
5376 of libcrypto.
5377 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
5378 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
5379 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
5380 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
5381 have to be made anyway).
5382 [Richard Levitte]
5383
5384 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
5385 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
5386 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
5387 [Steve Henson]
5388
5389 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
5390 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
5391 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
5392 [Richard Levitte]
5393
5394 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
5395 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
5396 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
5397
5398 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
5399 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
5400 edit numbers of the version.
5401 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
5402
5403 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
5404 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
5405 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
5406
5407 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
5408 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5409
5410 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
5411 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
5412 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5413
5414 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
5415 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5416
5417 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
5418 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5419
5420 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
5421 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5422
5423 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
5424 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5425
5426 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
5427 overflows.
5428 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5429
5430 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
5431 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
5432 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5433
5434 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
5435 representations in a platform independent manner.
5436 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5437
5438 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
5439 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
5440 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5441
5442 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
5443 indents.
5444 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5445
5446 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
5447 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5448
5449 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
5450 full. Fixed.
5451 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5452
5453 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
5454 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
5455 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5456
5457 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
5458 unconditionally).
5459 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5460
5461 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
5462 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5463
5464 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
5465 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5466
5467 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
5468 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5469
5470 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
5471 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5472
5473 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
5474 CBCParameter.
5475 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5476
5477 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
5478 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5479
5480 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
5481 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5482
5483 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
5484 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
5485 exploitable.
5486 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5487
5488 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
5489 the 0.9.6 release series:
5490
5491 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
5492 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
5493 (CVE-2002-0657)
5494 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5495
5496 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
5497 [Richard Levitte]
5498
5499 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
5500 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
5501
5502 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
5503 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
5504
5505 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
5506 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
5507 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
5508 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
5509
5510 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
5511 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
5512 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
5513
5514 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
5515 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
5516 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
5517 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
5518
5519 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
5520 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
5521 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
5522 some local tweaks:
5523
5524 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
5525 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
5526 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
5527 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5528 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5529 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
5530 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
5531 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
5532 done
5533
5534 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
5535 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
5536 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
5537 [Richard Levitte]
5538
5539 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
5540 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
5541 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
5542 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
5543 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
5544
5545 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
5546 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
5547
5548 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
5549 error in AES-CFB decryption.
5550 [Richard Levitte]
5551
5552 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
5553 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
5554 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
5555 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
5556 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
5557 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
5558 [Steve Henson]
5559
5560 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
5561 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
5562 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
5563 [Steve Henson]
5564
5565 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
5566 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
5567 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5568
5569 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
5570 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
5571 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
5572 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
5573 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
5574 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
5575 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
5576 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5577
5578 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
5579 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
5580 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
5581 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
5582 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
5583 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
5584 [Steve Henson]
5585
5586 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
5587 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
5588 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
5589 declaration has been changed from
5590 int (*cb)()
5591 into
5592 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
5593 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
5594 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
5595 has been changed into
5596 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
5597
5598 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
5599 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
5600 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
5601
5602 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
5603 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
5604
5605 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
5606 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
5607 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
5608 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
5609 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
5610 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
5611 always load it have also been added.
5612 [Steve Henson]
5613
5614 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
5615 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
5616 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5617
5618 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
5619
5620 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
5621 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
5622 because it couldn't be used for anything.
5623
5624 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
5625 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
5626 command line option can be used to specify an
5627 alternative file.
5628 [Steve Henson]
5629
5630 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
5631 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
5632 [Steve Henson]
5633
5634 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
5635 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
5636 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
5637 [Steve Henson]
5638
5639 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
5640 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5641 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
5642 to work with the new engine framework.
5643 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
5644
5645 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
5646 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5647 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
5648 to work with the new engine framework.
5649 [Richard Levitte]
5650
5651 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
5652 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
5653 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
5654
5655 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
5656 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
5657
5658 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
5659 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
5660 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
5661 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
5662 FORMAT_IISSGC.
5663 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5664
5665 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5666 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5667
5668 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
5669 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
5670
5671 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
5672 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
5673 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
5674 [Ben Laurie]
5675
5676 *) Add new functions
5677 ERR_peek_last_error
5678 ERR_peek_last_error_line
5679 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
5680 These are similar to
5681 ERR_peek_error
5682 ERR_peek_error_line
5683 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
5684 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
5685 still in the error queue.
5686 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
5687
5688 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
5689 like:
5690 default_algorithms = ALL
5691 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
5692 [Steve Henson]
5693
5694 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
5695 [Steve Henson]
5696
5697 *) New experimental application configuration code.
5698 [Steve Henson]
5699
5700 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
5701 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
5702 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
5703 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5704
5705 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
5706 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
5707
5708 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
5709 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5710
5711 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
5712 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
5713 [Bodo Moeller]
5714
5715 *) New functions/macros
5716
5717 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
5718 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
5719 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
5720 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
5721
5722 to request calling a callback function
5723
5724 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
5725 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
5726
5727 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
5728 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
5729 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
5730 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
5731 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
5732 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
5733 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
5734 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
5735 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
5736 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
5737
5738 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
5739 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
5740 [Bodo Moeller]
5741
5742 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
5743 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
5744 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
5745 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
5746 the configuration scripts.
5747
5748 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
5749 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
5750 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
5751
5752 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
5753 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5754
5755 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
5756 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
5757 when reusing an existing buffer.
5758 [Bodo Moeller]
5759
5760 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
5761 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
5762 [Steve Henson]
5763
5764 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
5765 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
5766 [Ben Laurie]
5767
5768 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
5769 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
5770 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
5771 has the same effect.
5772 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5773
5774 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
5775 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
5776 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
5777 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
5778 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
5779 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
5780 exception.
5781
5782 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
5783 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
5784 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
5785 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
5786
5787 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
5788 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
5789 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
5790 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
5791
5792 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
5793 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
5794 won't work.
5795
5796 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
5797 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
5798 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
5799 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
5800 default), and then completely removed.
5801 [Richard Levitte]
5802
5803 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
5804 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
5805 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
5806 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
5807 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
5808 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
5809 particular extension is supported.
5810 [Steve Henson]
5811
5812 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
5813 to retain compatibility with existing code.
5814 [Steve Henson]
5815
5816 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
5817 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
5818 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
5819 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
5820 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
5821 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
5822 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
5823 requires the destination to be valid.
5824
5825 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
5826 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
5827 [Steve Henson]
5828
5829 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
5830 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
5831 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
5832 [Bodo Moeller]
5833
5834 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
5835 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
5836
5837 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
5838 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
5839 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
5840 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
5841 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
5842 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
5843 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
5844 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
5845 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
5846 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
5847 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
5848 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
5849 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
5850 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
5851 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
5852 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
5853 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
5854 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
5855 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
5856 the new code.
5857 [Geoff Thorpe]
5858
5859 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
5860 [Steve Henson]
5861
5862 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
5863 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
5864 become part of libeay.num as well.
5865 [Richard Levitte]
5866
5867 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
5868 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
5869 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
5870 false once a handshake has been completed.
5871 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
5872 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
5873 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
5874 client has followed the request.)
5875 [Bodo Moeller]
5876
5877 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
5878 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
5879 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
5880 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
5881
5882 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
5883 more bits available for options that should not be part of
5884 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
5885 [Bodo Moeller]
5886
5887 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
5888 [Steve Henson]
5889
5890 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
5891 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
5892 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
5893 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5894
5895 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5896 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5897 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5898
5899 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5900 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5901 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5902 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5903 [Geoff Thorpe]
5904
5905 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5906 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5907 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5908 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5909 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5910 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5911 [Geoff Thorpe]
5912
5913 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5914 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5915 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5916 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5917 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5918 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5919 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5920 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5921 [Geoff Thorpe]
5922
5923 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5924 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5925 [Geoff Thorpe]
5926
5927 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5928 [Ben Laurie]
5929
5930 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5931 md_data void pointer.
5932 [Ben Laurie]
5933
5934 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5935 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5936 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5937 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5938 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5939 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5940 [Ben Laurie]
5941
5942 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5943 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5944 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5945 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5946 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5947 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5948 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5949 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5950 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5951 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5952 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5953 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5954 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5955 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5956 rather than letting it slide.
5957
5958 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5959 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5960 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5961 [Geoff Thorpe]
5962
5963 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5964 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5965 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5966 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5967 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5968 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5969 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5970 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5971 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5972 [Geoff Thorpe]
5973
5974 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5975 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5976 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5977 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5978 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5979
5980 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5981 [Geoff Thorpe]
5982
5983 *) Add EVP test program.
5984 [Ben Laurie]
5985
5986 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5987 [Ben Laurie]
5988
5989 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5990 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5991 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5992 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5993 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5994 [Steve Henson]
5995
5996 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5997 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5998 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5999 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
6000 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
6001 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
6002 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
6003
6004 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
6005 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
6006 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
6007 Usage example:
6008
6009 EVP_MD_CTX md;
6010
6011 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
6012 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
6013 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
6014 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
6015 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
6016
6017 [Ben Laurie]
6018
6019 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
6020 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
6021 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
6022 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
6023 anyway): E.g.,
6024
6025 des_key_schedule ks;
6026
6027 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
6028 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
6029
6030 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
6031 [Ben Laurie]
6032
6033 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
6034 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
6035 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
6036 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
6037 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
6038 functions prevents this.
6039 [Steve Henson]
6040
6041 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
6042 [Ben Laurie]
6043
6044 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
6045 correct _ecb suffix.
6046 [Ben Laurie]
6047
6048 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
6049 revocation information is handled using the text based index
6050 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
6051 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
6052 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
6053 [Steve Henson]
6054
6055 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
6056 [Richard Levitte]
6057
6058 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
6059 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
6060 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
6061 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
6062
6063 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
6064 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
6065
6066 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
6067 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6068 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
6069 via Richard Levitte]
6070
6071 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
6072 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
6073 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
6074 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
6075 [Geoff Thorpe]
6076
6077 *) Speed up EVP routines.
6078 Before:
6079 encrypt
6080 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
6081 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
6082 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k

6088 After:

6090 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
6091 decrypt
6092 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
6093 [Ben Laurie]
6094
6095 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
6096 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
6097
6098 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
6099 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
6100 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
6101 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
6102 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
6103 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
6104 [Steve Henson]
6105
6106 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
6107 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
6108 [Richard Levitte]
6109
6110 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
6111 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
6112 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
6113 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
6114
6115 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
6116 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
6117 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
6118 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
6119 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
6120 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
6121 callback.
6122 [Richard Levitte]
6123
6124 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
6125 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
6126 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
6127 and interrupts/cancellations.
6128 [Richard Levitte]
6129
6130 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
6131 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
6132 [Steve Henson]
6133
6134 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
6135 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
6136 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
6137
6138 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
6139 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
6140 kind of callback.
6141 [Richard Levitte]
6142
6143 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
6144 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
6145 than this minimum value is recommended.
6146 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6147
6148 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
6149 that are easily reachable.
6150 [Richard Levitte]
6151
6152 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
6153 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
6154
6155 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
6156
6157 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
6158 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
6159 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
6160 needed for static libraries under Win32.
6161 [Steve Henson]
6162
6163 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
6164 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
6165 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
6166 [Steve Henson]
6167
6168 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
6169 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
6170 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
6171 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
6172 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
6173 internally such as S/MIME.
6174
6175 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
6176 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
6177 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
6178
6179 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
6180 applications.
6181 [Steve Henson]
6182
6183 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
6184 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
6185 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
6186 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
6187
6188 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
6189
6190 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
6191
6192 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
6193 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
6194 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
6195 handling.
6196 [Steve Henson]
6197
6198 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
6199 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
6200 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
6201 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
6202 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
6203 a window system and the like.
6204 [Richard Levitte]
6205
6206 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
6207 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
6208 [Geoff]
6209
6210 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
6211 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
6212 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
6213 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
6214 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
6215 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
6216 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
6217 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
6218 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
6219 ENGINE structure.
6220 [Geoff]
6221
6222 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
6223 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
6224 tag cache.
6225 [Steve Henson]
6226
6227 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
6228 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
6229 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
6230 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
6231 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
6232 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
6233 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
6234 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
6235 [Geoff]
6236
6237 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
6238 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
6239 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
6240 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
6241 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
6242 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
6243 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
6244 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
6245 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
6246 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
6247 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
6248 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
6249 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
6250 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
6251 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
6252 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
6253 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
6254 [Geoff]
6255
6256 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
6257 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
6258 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
6259 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
6260 internal engine_int.h header.
6261 [Geoff]
6262
6263 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
6264 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
6265 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
6266 modify their own ones).
6267 [Geoff]
6268
6269 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
6270 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
6271 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
6272 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
6273 later on via ctrl() commands.
6274 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
6275 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
6276 structural references.
6277 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
6278 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
6279 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
6280 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
6281 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
6282 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
6283 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
6284 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
6285 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
6286 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
6287 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
6288 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
6289 [Geoff]
6290
6291 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
6292 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
6293 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
6294 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
6295 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
6296 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
6297 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
6298 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
6299 [Bodo Moeller]
6300
6301 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
6302 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
6303 [Steve Henson]
6304
6305 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
6306 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
6307 [Steve Henson]
6308
6309 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
6310 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
6311 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
6312 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
6313 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
6314 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
6315 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
6316 [Steve Henson]
6317
6318 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
6319 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
6320 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
6321 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
6322 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
6323
6324 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
6325 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
6326 generator).
6327 [Bodo Moeller]
6328
6329 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
6330
6331 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
6332 operations and provides various method functions that can also
6333 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
6334
6335 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
6336 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
6337
6338 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
6339 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
6340 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
6341
6342 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
6343 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
6344
6345 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
6346 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
6347
6348 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
6349
6350 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
6351 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
6352 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
6353 [Bodo Moeller]
6354
6355 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
6356 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
6357 [Richard Levitte]
6358
6359 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
6360 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
6361 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
6362 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
6363 is 40 of more characters long.
6364 [Steve Henson]
6365
6366 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
6367 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
6368 pointers.
6369 [Steve Henson]
6370
6371 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
6372 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
6373 [Bodo Moeller]
6374
6375 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
6376 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
6377 might.
6378 [Steve Henson]
6379
6380 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
6381
6382 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
6383 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
6384
6385 ASN1 error codes
6386 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
6387 ...
6388 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
6389 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
6390 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
6391 ...
6392 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
6393 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
6394
6395 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
6396 [Bodo Moeller]
6397
6398 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
6399 suffices.
6400 [Bodo Moeller]
6401
6402 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
6403 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
6404 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
6405 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
6406 and
6407 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
6408
6409 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
6410 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
6411
6412 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
6413 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
6414 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
6415 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
6416 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
6417 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
6418
6419 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
6420 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
6421
6422 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
6423 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
6424
6425 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
6426 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
6427
6428 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
6429 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
6430 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
6431 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
6432
6433 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
6434 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
6435
6436 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
6437 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
6438
6439 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
6440 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
6441 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
6442 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
6443 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
6444 [Richard Levitte]
6445
6446 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
6447 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
6448 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
6449 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
6450 [Steve Henson]
6451
6452 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
6453 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
6454 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
6455 trust settings.
6456 [Steve Henson]
6457
6458 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
6459 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
6460 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
6461 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
6462 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
6463 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
6464 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
6465 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
6466 ocsp utility.
6467 [Steve Henson]
6468
6469 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
6470 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
6471 [Steve Henson]
6472
6473 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
6474 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
6475 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
6476 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
6477 [Steve Henson]
6478
6479 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
6480 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
6481 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
6482 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
6483 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
6484 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
6485 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
6486 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
6487 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
6488 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
6489 [Steve Henson]
6490
6491 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
6492 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
6493 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
6494 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
6495 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
6496 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
6497 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
6498 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6499
6500 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
6501 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
6502 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
6503 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
6504 [Richard Levitte]
6505
6506 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
6507 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
6508 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
6509 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
6510 opensslconf.h.
6511 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
6512 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
6513 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
6514 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
6515 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
6516 what is available.
6517 [Richard Levitte]
6518
6519 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
6520 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
6521 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
6522 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
6523 auto incremented.
6524 [Steve Henson]
6525
6526 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
6527 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
6528 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
6529 [Steve Henson]
6530
6531 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
6532 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
6533 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
6534 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
6535 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
6536 [Steve Henson]
6537
6538 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
6539 [Steve Henson]
6540
6541 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
6542 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
6543 option to ocsp utility.
6544 [Steve Henson]
6545
6546 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
6547 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
6548 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
6549 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
6550 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
6551 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
6552 the request is nonce-less.
6553 [Steve Henson]
6554
6555 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
6556 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
6557 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
6558 [Bodo Moeller]
6559
6560 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
6561 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
6562 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
6563 [Steve Henson]
6564
6565 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
6566 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
6567 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
6568 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
6569 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
6570 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6571
6572 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
6573 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
6574 appear to exist.
6575 [Steve Henson]
6576
6577 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
6578 additional certificates supplied.
6579 [Steve Henson]
6580
6581 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
6582 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
6583 signature against.
6584 [Richard Levitte]
6585
6586 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
6587 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
6588 AES OIDs.
6589
6590 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
6591 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
6592 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
6593 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
6594 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
6595 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
6596 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
6597 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
6598 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6599
6600 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
6601 request to response.
6602 [Steve Henson]
6603
6604 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
6605 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
6606 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
6607 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
6608 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
6609 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
6610 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
6611 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
6612 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
6613 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
6614 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
6615 [Steve Henson]
6616
6617 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
6618 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
6619 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
6620 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
6621 [Steve Henson]
6622
6623 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
6624 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6625
6626 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
6627 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
6628 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
6629 [Steve Henson]
6630
6631 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
6632 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
6633 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
6634 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6635 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6636
6637 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
6638 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
6639 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
6640 [Steve Henson]
6641
6642 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
6643 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
6644 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
6645 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
6646 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
6647 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
6648 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6649 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6650
6651 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
6652 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
6653 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
6654 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
6655 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
6656 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
6657 [Steve Henson]
6658
6659 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
6660 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
6661 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
6662 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
6663 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
6664 printout format cleaned up.
6665 [Steve Henson]
6666
6667 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
6668 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
6669 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
6670 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
6671 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
6672 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
6673 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
6674 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
6675 [Steve Henson]
6676
6677 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
6678 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
6679 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
6680 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
6681 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
6682 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
6683 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
6684 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
6685 [Steve Henson]
6686
6687 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
6688 extensions from a separate configuration file.
6689 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
6690 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
6691 section to use.
6692 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6693
6694 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
6695 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
6696 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
6697 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
6698 [Steve Henson]
6699
6700 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
6701 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
6702 the given serial number (according to the index file).
6703 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
6704 in the index file.
6705 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6706
6707 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
6708 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
6709 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
6710 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6711
6712 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
6713 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
6714
6715 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
6716 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
6717 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
6718 [Steve Henson]
6719
6720 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
6721 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
6722 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
6723 [Bodo Moeller]
6724
6725 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
6726 file name and line number information in additional arguments
6727 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
6728 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
6729 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
6730 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
6731 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
6732 functions are provided:
6733
6734 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
6735 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
6736 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
6737 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
6738
6739 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
6740 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
6741 extended allocation function is enabled.
6742 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
6743 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
6744 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
6745
6746 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
6747 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
6748 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
6749 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
6750 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
6751 [Geoff Thorpe]
6752
6753 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
6754 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
6755 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
6756 be queried.
6757 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
6758 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
6759 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
6760 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6761
6762 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
6763 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
6764 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
6765 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
6766 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
6767 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
6768 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
6769 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
6770 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
6771 [Richard Levitte]
6772
6773 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
6774 provide utility functions which an application needing
6775 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
6776 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
6777 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
6778
6779 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
6780 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
6781 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
6782 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
6783 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
6784 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
6785 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
6786 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
6787 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
6788
6789 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
6790 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
6791 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
6792 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
6793 [Steve Henson]
6794
6795 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
6796 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
6797 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
6798 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
6799 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
6800 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
6801 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
6802 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
6803 will be added elsewhere.
6804 [Steve Henson]
6805
6806 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
6807 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
6808 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
6809 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
6810 [Steve Henson]
6811
6812 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
6813 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
6814 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
6815 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
6816 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
6817 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
6818 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
6819 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
6820 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
6821 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
6822 to produce the required SET OF.
6823 [Steve Henson]
6824
6825 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
6826 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
6827 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
6828 [Richard Levitte]
6829
6830 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
6831 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
6832 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
6833 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
6834 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
6835 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
6836 [Steve Henson]
6837
6838 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
6839 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
6840 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
6841 [Steve Henson]
6842
6843 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
6844 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
6845 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
6846 [Richard Levitte]
6847
6848 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
6849 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
6850 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
6851 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
6852 code will still work when these eventually go away.
6853 [Steve Henson]
6854
6855 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
6856 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
6857 [Steve Henson]
6858
6859 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
6860 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
6861 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
6862 certifcates and CRLs.
6863 [Steve Henson]
6864
6865 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
6866 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
6867 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
6868 [Steve Henson]
6869
6870 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
6871 entries for variables.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
6874 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
6875 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
6876 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
6877 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
6878 [Bodo Moeller]
6879
6880 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
6881 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
6882 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
6883 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
6884 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
6885 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
6886 [Bodo Moeller]
6887
6888 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
6889 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
6890
6891 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
6892 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
6893 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
6894 [Steve Henson]
6895
6896 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6897 print routines.
6898 [Steve Henson]
6899
6900 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6901 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6902 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6903 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6904 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6905 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6906 [Steve Henson]
6907
6908 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6909 [Steve Henson]
6910
6911 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6912 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6913 for now but they will eventually go away.
6914 [Steve Henson]
6915
6916 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6917 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6918 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6919 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6920 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6921 has also been converted to the new form.
6922 [Steve Henson]
6923
6924 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6925 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6926 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6927 for negative moduli.
6928 [Bodo Moeller]
6929
6930 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6931 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6932 [Bodo Moeller]
6933
6934 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6935 set.
6936 [Bodo Moeller]
6937
6938 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6939 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6940 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6941 type-specific callbacks.
6942 [Geoff Thorpe]
6943
6944 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6945 RFC 2712.
6946 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6947 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6948
6949 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6950 in sections depending on the subject.
6951 [Richard Levitte]
6952
6953 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6954 Windows.
6955 [Richard Levitte]
6956
6957 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6958 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6959 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6960 be handled deterministically).
6961 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6962
6963 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6964 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6965 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6966 [Bodo Moeller]
6967
6968 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6969 [Bodo Moeller]
6970
6971 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6972 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6973 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6974 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6975 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6976 [Bodo Moeller]
6977
6978 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6979 sign of the number in question.
6980
6981 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6982
6983 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6984 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6985 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6986 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6987 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6988 [Bodo Moeller]
6989
6990 *) New function BN_swap.
6991 [Bodo Moeller]
6992
6993 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6994 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6995 results on negative inputs.
6996 [Bodo Moeller]
6997
6998 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6999 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
7000 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
7001 [Bodo Moeller]
7002
7003 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
7004 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
7005 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
7006 and add new functions:
7007
7008 BN_nnmod
7009 BN_mod_sqr
7010 BN_mod_add
7011 BN_mod_add_quick
7012 BN_mod_sub
7013 BN_mod_sub_quick
7014 BN_mod_lshift1
7015 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
7016 BN_mod_lshift
7017 BN_mod_lshift_quick
7018
7019 These functions always generate non-negative results.
7020
7021 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
7022 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
7023
7024 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
7025 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
7026 be reduced modulo m.
7027 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
7028
7029 #if 0
7030 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
7031 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
7032 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
7033
7034 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
7035 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
7036 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
7037 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
7038 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
7039 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
7040 differing sizes.
7041 [Richard Levitte]
7042 #endif
7043
7044 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
7045 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
7046 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
7047 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
7048 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
7049
7050 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
7051 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
7052 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
7053 cause any problems.
7054 [Bodo Moeller]
7055
7056 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
7057 [Richard Levitte]
7058
7059 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
7060 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
7061 [Richard Levitte]
7062
7063 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
7064 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
7065 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
7066 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
7067 time)
7068 [Richard Levitte]
7069
7070 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
7071 [Richard Levitte]
7072
7073 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
7074 [Richard Levitte]
7075
7076 *) Add the following functions:
7077
7078 ENGINE_load_cswift()
7079 ENGINE_load_chil()
7080 ENGINE_load_atalla()
7081 ENGINE_load_nuron()
7082 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
7083
7084 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
7085 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
7086 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
7087 libraries unless it's really needed.
7088
7089 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
7090 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
7091 declarations (they differed!).
7092 [Richard Levitte]
7093
7094 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
7095 [Richard Levitte]
7096
7097 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
7098 [Richard Levitte]
7099
7100 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
7101 [Bodo Moeller]
7102
7103 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
7104 identity, and test if they are actually available.
7105 [Richard Levitte]
7106
7107 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
7108 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
7109 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
7110
7111 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
7112 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
7113 [Richard Levitte]
7114
7115 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
7116 [Richard Levitte]
7117
7118 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
7119 [Richard Levitte]
7120
7121 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
7122 [Ben Laurie]
7123
7124 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
7125 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
7126 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
7127
7128 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
7129 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
7130 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
7131 different shared library filenames on each system.
7132 [Geoff Thorpe]
7133
7134 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
7135 [Richard Levitte]
7136
7137 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
7138 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
7139 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
7140 of two sections.
7141 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
7142
7143 *) NCONF changes.
7144 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
7145 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
7146 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
7147 binary backward compatibility.
7148 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
7149 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
7150 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
7151 LDAP server.
7152 [Richard Levitte]
7153
7154 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
7155 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
7156 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
7157 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
7158 this case.
7159 [Steve Henson]
7160
7161 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
7162 [Ben Laurie]
7163
7164 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
7165 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
7166 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
7167 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
7168 set.
7169 [Steve Henson]
7170
7171 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
7172 [Richard Levitte]
7173
7174 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
7175
7176 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
7177 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
7178 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
7179
7180 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
7181
7182 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
7183
7184 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
7185 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
7186 [Steve Henson]
7187
7188 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
7189
7190 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
7191
7192 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
7193 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
7194
7195 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
7196 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
7197
7198 [Steve Henson]
7199
7200 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
7201 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
7202 specifications.
7203 [Steve Henson]
7204
7205 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
7206 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
7207 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
7208 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
7209
7210 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
7211 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
7212 [Richard Levitte]
7213
7214 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
7215
7216 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
7217 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
7218 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
7219 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
7220 [Bodo Moeller]
7221
7222 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
7223 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
7224 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
7225 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
7226 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7227
7228 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
7229 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
7230 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
7231 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
7232 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
7233 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
7234 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
7235 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
7236 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
7237 [Bodo Moeller]
7238
7239 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
7240
7241 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
7242 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
7243 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
7244 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
7245 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
7246
7247 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
7248 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
7249 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
7250
7251 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
7252
7253 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
7254 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
7255 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
7256 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
7257 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
7258 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
7259 [Geoff Thorpe]
7260
7261 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
7262 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
7263 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
7264 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
7265 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
7266 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7267
7268 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
7269 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
7270 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
7271
7272 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
7273 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
7274 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
7275 EVP_cleanup().
7276 [Richard Levitte]
7277
7278 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
7279 being properly terminated.
7280 [Richard Levitte]
7281
7282 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
7283 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
7284 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
7285 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
7286
7287 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
7288 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
7289 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
7290 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
7291 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
7292 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
7293 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
7294 change.
7295 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
7296
7297 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
7298 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
7299 [Bodo Moeller]
7300
7301 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
7302 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
7303 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
7304 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
7305 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
7306 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
7307 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
7308 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
7309
7310 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
7311 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
7312 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
7313 (see [openssl.org #212]).
7314 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
7315
7316 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
7317 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
7318 [Steve Henson]
7319
7320 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
7321
7322 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
7323 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
7324 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
7325
7326 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
7327
7328 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
7329 and get fix the header length calculation.
7330 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
7331 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
7332 Steve Henson]
7333
7334 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
7335 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
7336 assertions could call abort()).
7337 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
7338
7339 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
7340
7341 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
7342 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
7343 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
7344 supplied buffer.
7345 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
7346
7347 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
7348 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
7349 by the selection routines (PR #130).
7350 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7351
7352 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
7353 [Nils Larsch]
7354
7355 *) New option
7356 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
7357 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
7358 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
7359
7360 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
7361 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
7362 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
7363 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
7364 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
7365 applications.
7366 [Bodo Moeller]
7367
7368 *) Changes in security patch:
7369
7370 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
7371 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
7372 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
7373 F30602-01-2-0537.
7374
7375 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
7376 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
7377 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
7378 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
7379 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
7380
7381 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
7382 happen in practice.
7383 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7384
7385 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
7386 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
7387 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
7388
7389 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7390 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
7391 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7392
7393 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
7394 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
7395 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7396
7397 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
7398
7399 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
7400 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
7401 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
7402
7403 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
7404 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
7405
7406 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
7407 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
7408 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
7409 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
7410 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
7411 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
7412 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7413
7414 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
7415 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
7416 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
7417 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
7418 [Bodo Moeller]
7419
7420 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
7421 [Bodo Moeller]
7422
7423 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
7424 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
7425 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
7426 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
7427 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
7428 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7429
7430 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
7431 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
7432 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
7433 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
7434 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
7435 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7436
7437 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
7438 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
7439 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
7440 BN_generate_prime().)
7441
7442 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
7443 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
7444 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
7445 better.
7446 [Bodo Moeller]
7447
7448 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
7449 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
7450 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7451
7452 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
7453 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
7454 when using non-blocking I/O.
7455 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
7456
7457 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
7458 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
7459
7460 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
7461 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
7462 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7463
7464 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
7465 configuration for the versions before that.
7466 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7467
7468 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
7469 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
7470 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
7471 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
7472 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7473
7474 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
7475 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
7476 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
7477 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7478
7479 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
7480 value is 0.
7481 [Richard Levitte]
7482
7483 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
7484 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7485 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7486
7487 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
7488 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
7489
7490 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
7491 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
7492 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
7493 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
7494 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
7495 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
7496 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
7497 session cache.
7498
7499 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
7500 using a local variable.
7501 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7502
7503 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
7504 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
7505 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7506
7507 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
7508 [Richard Levitte]
7509
7510 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
7511 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
7512
7513 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
7514 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
7515 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
7516
7517 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
7518
7519 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
7520 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
7521 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
7522 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
7523 [Bodo Moeller]
7524
7525 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
7526 present.
7527 [Steve Henson]
7528
7529 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
7530 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
7531 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
7532 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
7533 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
7534
7535 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
7536 returns early because it has nothing to do.
7537 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7538
7539 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7540 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
7541 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7542
7543 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7544 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
7545 (Use engine 'keyclient')
7546 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
7547
7548 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
7549 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
7550 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
7551 modules).
7552 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
7553
7554 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7555 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
7556 from 0.9.7.
7557 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
7558
7559 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7560 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
7561 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7562 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
7563
7564 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7565 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
7566 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7567 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
7568
7569 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
7570 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
7571
7572 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
7573 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
7574 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
7575 [Bodo Moeller]
7576
7577 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
7578 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
7579 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
7580 become invalid.
7581 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
7582
7583 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
7584 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
7585 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
7586 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
7587 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
7588 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
7589 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
7590 [Bodo Moeller]
7591
7592 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
7593 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
7594 one of the SSL handshake functions.
7595 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
7596
7597 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
7598 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
7599 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
7600 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
7601 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
7602 the client will at least see that alert.
7603 [Bodo Moeller]
7604
7605 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
7606 correctly.
7607 [Bodo Moeller]
7608
7609 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
7610 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
7611 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7612
7613 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
7614 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
7615 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
7616 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
7617 HelloRequest.
7618
7619 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
7620 before just sending a HelloRequest.
7621 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
7622
7623 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
7624 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
7625 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
7626 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
7627 may leak via logfiles.)
7628
7629 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
7630 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
7631 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
7632 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
7633 the legal range.
7634 [Bodo Moeller]
7635
7636 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
7637 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7638 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7639
7640 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
7641 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
7642 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
7643 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
7644 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
7645 [Bodo Moeller]
7646
7647 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
7648 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
7649
7650 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
7651 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
7652 followed by modular reduction.
7653 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
7654
7655 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
7656 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
7657 [Bodo Moeller]
7658
7659 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
7660 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
7661 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
7662 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
7663 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7664
7665 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
7666 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7667
7668 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
7669 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
7670 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7671
7672 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
7673 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
7674 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
7675 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
7676 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
7677 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
7678 automatically.
7679 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
7680
7681 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
7682 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
7683 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
7684 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
7685 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
7686
7687 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
7688 [Andy Polyakov]
7689
7690 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
7691 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
7692 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
7693 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
7694 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
7695 to allow the necessary settings.
7696 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7697
7698 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
7699 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
7700 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
7701 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
7702 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7703
7704 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
7705 dh->length and always used
7706
7707 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
7708
7709 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
7710 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
7711 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
7712 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
7713 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
7714 dh->length.
7715
7716 So switch back to
7717
7718 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
7719
7720 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
7721 otherwise.
7722 [Bodo Moeller]
7723
7724 *) In
7725
7726 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
7727 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
7728 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
7729 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
7730
7731 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
7732 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
7733 always reject numbers >= n.
7734 [Bodo Moeller]
7735
7736 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
7737 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
7738 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
7739 variable) is not atomic.
7740 [Bodo Moeller]
7741
7742 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
7743 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
7744 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
7745 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
7746
7747 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
7748 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
7749
7750 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
7751 little-endian MIPS.
7752 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
7753
7754 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
7755 [Richard Levitte]
7756
7757 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
7758
7759 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
7760 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
7761 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
7762 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
7763 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
7764 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
7765 to traverse all of 'state'.
7766
7767 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
7768 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
7769 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
7770
7771 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
7772 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
7773
7774 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
7775 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
7776 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
7777 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
7778 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
7779 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
7780 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
7781 further strengthens the PRNG.
7782 [Bodo Moeller]
7783
7784 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
7785 [Andy Polyakov]
7786
7787 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
7788 an error message in this case.
7789 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7790
7791 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
7792 [Steve Henson]
7793
7794 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
7795 positive and less than q.
7796 [Bodo Moeller]
7797
7798 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
7799 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
7800 that itself.
7801 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
7802
7803 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
7804 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
7805 [Bodo Moeller]
7806
7807 *) Fix OAEP check.
7808 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7809
7810 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
7811 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
7812 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
7813 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
7814 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
7815 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
7816 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
7817 paper.)
7818
7819 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
7820 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
7821 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
7822 detect the supposedly ignored error.
7823
7824 Both problems are now fixed.
7825 [Bodo Moeller]
7826
7827 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
7828 (previously it was 1024).
7829 [Bodo Moeller]
7830
7831 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
7832 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
7833 [Steve Henson]
7834
7835 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
7836 [Steve Henson]
7837
7838 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
7839 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
7840 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
7841 [Steve Henson]
7842
7843 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
7844 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
7845 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
7846 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
7847 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
7848 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
7849 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
7850 environment variables.
7851
7852 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
7853 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
7854 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
7855 [Bodo Moeller]
7856
7857 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
7858 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
7859 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
7860 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
7861 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
7862 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
7863 [Bodo Moeller]
7864
7865 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
7866 versions of 'test'.
7867 [Bodo Moeller]
7868
7869 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
7870
7871 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
7872 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
7873
7874 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
7875 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
7876 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
7877 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
7878 CygWin.
7879 [Richard Levitte]
7880
7881 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
7882 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
7883 amount of data available.
7884 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
7885 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7886
7887 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
7888 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
7889 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
7890 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
7891 [Bodo Moeller]
7892
7893 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
7894 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7895 and UnixWare.
7896 [Richard Levitte]
7897
7898 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7899 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7900 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7901 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
7902 [Ulf Moeller]
7903
7904 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7905 [Andy Polyakov]
7906
7907 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7908 [Richard Levitte]
7909
7910 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7911 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7912 [Steve Henson]
7913 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7914
7915 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7916 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7917 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7918 (but broken) behaviour.
7919 [Steve Henson]
7920
7921 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7922 it when found.
7923 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7924
7925 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7926 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7927 [Bodo Moeller]
7928
7929 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7930 did not exist.
7931 [Bodo Moeller]
7932
7933 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7934 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7935
7936 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7937 [Richard Levitte]
7938
7939 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7940 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7941 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7942
7943 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7944 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7945 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7946 [Steve Henson]
7947
7948 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7949 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7950 [Ulf Moeller]
7951
7952 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7953 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7954
7955 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7956
7957 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7958
7959 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7960 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7961 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7962 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7963 [Bodo Moeller]
7964
7965 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7966 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7967
7968 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7969 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7970 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7971
7972 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7973 was empty.
7974 [Steve Henson]
7975 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7976
7977 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7978 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7979 but the code is actually correct.
7980 [Steve Henson]
7981
7982 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7983 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7984 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7985 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7986 and leaves the highest bit random.
7987 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7988
7989 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7990 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7991 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7992 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7993 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7994 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7995 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7996 [Bodo Moeller]
7997
7998 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7999 [Ulf Moeller]
8000
8001 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
8002 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
8003 [Steve Henson]
8004
8005 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
8006 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
8007 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
8008 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
8009 headers.
8010 [Richard Levitte]
8011
8012 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
8013 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
8014 and break the signature.
8015 [Steve Henson]
8016 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
8017
8018 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
8019 DH ciphersuites.
8020 [Steve Henson]
8021
8022 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
8023 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
8024 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
8025 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
8026 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
8027 [Bodo Moeller]
8028
8029 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
8030 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
8031
8032 *) ./config script fixes.
8033 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
8034
8035 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
8036 [Bodo Moeller]
8037
8038 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
8039 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
8040 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
8041 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
8042 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
8043
8044 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
8045 call failed, free the DSA structure.
8046 [Bodo Moeller]
8047
8048 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
8049 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
8050 [Steve Henson]
8051
8052 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
8053 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
8054 when writing a 32767 byte record.
8055 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
8056
8057 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
8058 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
8059
8060 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
8061 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
8062 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
8063 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
8064 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
8065
8066 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
8067 [Bodo Moeller]
8068
8069 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
8070 [Ulf Möller]
8071
8072 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
8073 [Ulf Möller]
8074
8075 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
8076 [Bodo Moeller]
8077
8078 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
8079 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
8080 [Bodo Moeller]
8081
8082 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
8083 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
8084 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
8085 result of the server certificate verification.)
8086 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8087
8088 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
8089 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
8090 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
8091 [Bodo Moeller]
8092
8093 *) Fix SSL_peek:
8094 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
8095 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
8096 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
8097 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
8098 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
8099 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
8100 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
8101 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
8102 [Bodo Moeller]
8103
8104 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
8105 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
8106 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
8107 happening the other way round.
8108 [Geoff Thorpe]
8109
8110 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
8111 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
8112 [Bodo Moeller]
8113
8114 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
8115 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
8116 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
8117 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
8118 [Richard Levitte]
8119
8120 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
8121 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
8122
8123 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
8124
8125 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
8126 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
8127 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
8128 that.
8129
8130 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
8131
8132 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
8133
8134 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
8135 static ones.
8136 [Richard Levitte]
8137
8138 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
8139
8140 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
8141 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
8142 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
8143 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
8144 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
8145
8146 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
8147 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
8148 matter what.
8149 [Richard Levitte]
8150
8151 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
8152 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8153
8154 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
8155
8156 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
8157 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
8158 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
8159 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
8160 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
8161 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
8162 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
8163 by the Finished messages.
8164 [Bodo Moeller]
8165
8166 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
8167 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
8168
8169 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
8170 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
8171 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
8172 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
8173 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
8174 appropriately.
8175 [Steve Henson]
8176
8177 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
8178 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
8179 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
8180 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
8181 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
8182 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
8183 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
8184 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
8185 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
8186 together.
8187 [Steve Henson]
8188
8189 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
8190 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
8191 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
8192 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
8193
8194 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
8195 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
8196 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
8197 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
8198 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
8199 the answer.
8200
8201 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
8202 been tested well enough.
8203 [Richard Levitte]
8204
8205 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
8206 it can return incorrect results.
8207 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
8208 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
8209 [Bodo Moeller]
8210
8211 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
8212 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
8213 include zero length content when signing messages.
8214 [Steve Henson]
8215
8216 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
8217 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
8218 [Bodo Möller]
8219
8220 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
8221 [Richard Levitte]
8222
8223 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
8224 wrong sign.
8225 [Ulf Möller]
8226
8227 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
8228 packages. The default package contains applications, application
8229 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
8230 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
8231 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
8232 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
8233 [Richard Levitte]
8234
8235 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
8236 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8237
8238 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
8239 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
8240
8241 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
8242 random number < q in the DSA library.
8243 [Ulf Möller]
8244
8245 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
8246 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
8247 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
8248 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
8249 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
8250 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
8251 just makes things more complicated.)
8252 [Bodo Moeller]
8253
8254 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
8255 from EGD.
8256 [Ben Laurie]
8257
8258 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
8259 work better on such systems.
8260 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8261
8262 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
8263 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
8264 keyid to the certificates aux info.
8265 [Steve Henson]
8266
8267 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
8268 if there was more than one signature.
8269 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
8270
8271 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
8272 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
8273 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
8274 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
8275 [Richard Levitte]
8276
8277 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
8278 rather than always using the current time.
8279 [Steve Henson]
8280
8281 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
8282 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
8283 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
8284 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
8285 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
8286 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
8287
8288 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
8289 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
8290
8291 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
8292
8293 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
8294 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
8295 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
8296 the same hash value.
8297
8298 As a result various functions (which were all internal
8299 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
8300 structure. This will break anything that messed round
8301 with X509_STORE internally.
8302
8303 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
8304 exact match, rather than just subject name.
8305
8306 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
8307 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
8308 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
8309 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
8310 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
8311 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
8312 entirely (maybe later...).
8313
8314 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
8315
8316 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
8317 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
8318 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
8319 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
8320 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
8321 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
8322 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
8323 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
8324
8325 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
8326 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
8327
8328 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
8329 to customise the verify behaviour.
8330 [Steve Henson]
8331
8332 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
8333 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
8334 [Steve Henson]
8335
8336 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
8337 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
8338 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
8339 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
8340 request is improperly encoded.
8341 [Steve Henson]
8342
8343 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
8344 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
8345 BIO_write(b, ...).
8346
8347 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
8348 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
8349
8350 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
8351 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
8352 words set to zero.)
8353 [Bodo Moeller]
8354
8355 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
8356 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
8357 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
8358 [Bodo Moeller]
8359
8360 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
8361 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
8362 BIO/fp routines also added.
8363 [Steve Henson]
8364
8365 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
8366 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
8367
8368 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
8369 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
8370 demos/state_machine.
8371 [Ben Laurie]
8372
8373 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
8374 generation and verification.
8375 [Steve Henson]
8376
8377 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
8378 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
8379 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
8380 encode and decode it manually.
8381 [Steve Henson]
8382
8383 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
8384 compile under VC++.
8385 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
8386
8387 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
8388 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
8389 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
8390 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
8391
8392 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
8393 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
8394 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
8395 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
8396 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
8397 [Steve Henson]
8398
8399 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
8400 [Richard Levitte]
8401
8402 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
8403 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
8404 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
8405
8406 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
8407 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
8408 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
8409 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
8410 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
8411 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
8412 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
8413 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
8414
8415 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
8416 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
8417
8418 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
8419
8420 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
8421 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
8422 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
8423
8424 [Richard Levitte]
8425
8426 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
8427 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
8428 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
8429 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
8430 [Richard Levitte]
8431
8432 *) MD4 implemented.
8433 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
8434
8435 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
8436 [Richard Levitte]
8437
8438 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
8439 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
8440 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
8441 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
8442 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
8443 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
8444 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
8445 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
8446 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
8447 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
8448 short or long names are found.
8449 [Steve Henson]
8450
8451 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
8452 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
8453
8454 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
8455 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
8456 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
8457 version rollback attacks was not effective.
8458
8459 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
8460 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
8461 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
8462 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
8463 [Bodo Moeller]
8464
8465 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
8466 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
8467 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
8468 [Richard Levitte]
8469
8470 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
8471 these print out strings and name structures based on various
8472 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
8473 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
8474 to allow the various flags to be set.
8475 [Steve Henson]
8476
8477 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
8478 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
8479 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
8480 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
8481 dates to be checked.
8482 [Steve Henson]
8483
8484 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
8485 negative public key encodings) on by default,
8486 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
8487 [Steve Henson]
8488
8489 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
8490 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
8491 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
8492 [Steve Henson]
8493
8494 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
8495 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
8496 [Bodo Moeller]
8497
8498 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
8499 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
8500 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
8501 are always statically linked for now, but there are
8502 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
8503 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
8504 [Richard Levitte]
8505
8506 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
8507 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
8508 Random Numbers.
8509 [Ulf Möller]
8510
8511 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
8512 DSA key.
8513 [Steve Henson]
8514
8515 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
8516 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
8517 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
8518 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
8519 form signing output easier to verify.
8520 [Steve Henson]
8521
8522 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
8523 [Steve Henson]
8524
8525 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
8526 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
8527 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
8528 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
8529 are needed because all other string types have virtually
8530 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
8531 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
8532 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
8533 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
8534 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
8535 [Steve Henson]
8536
8537 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
8538
8539 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
8540 the syntax given in objects.README.
8541 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
8542 obj_mac.h.
8543 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
8544 obj_mac.h.
8545
8546 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
8547 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
8548 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
8549 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
8550 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
8551 consistent name changes.
8552 [Richard Levitte]
8553
8554 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
8555 [Bodo Moeller]
8556
8557 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
8558 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
8559 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
8560 environment variable, or the default random state file.
8561 [Richard Levitte]
8562
8563 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
8564 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
8565 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
8566 of safestack.h .
8567 [Steve Henson]
8568
8569 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
8570 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
8571 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
8572 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
8573 [Steve Henson]
8574
8575 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
8576 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
8577 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
8578 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
8579 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
8580 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
8581 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
8582 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
8583 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
8584 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
8585 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
8586 [Steve Henson]
8587
8588 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
8589 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
8590 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
8591 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
8592 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
8593 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
8594 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
8595 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
8596 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
8597 algorithm to openssl-dev.
8598 [Steve Henson]
8599
8600 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
8601 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
8602 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
8603 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
8604
8605 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
8606 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
8607 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
8608 omit any duplicate addresses.
8609 [Steve Henson]
8610
8611 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
8612 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
8613 [Bodo Moeller]
8614
8615 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
8616 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
8617 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
8618 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
8619 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
8620 [Bodo Moeller]
8621
8622 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
8623 software:
8624 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
8625 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
8626 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
8627 Free => OPENSSL_free
8628 [Richard Levitte]
8629
8630 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
8631 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
8632 [Bodo Moeller]
8633
8634 *) CygWin32 support.
8635 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
8636
8637 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
8638 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
8639 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
8640 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
8641 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
8642 approach.
8643 [Geoff Thorpe]
8644
8645 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
8646 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
8647 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
8648 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
8649 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
8650 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
8651 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
8652 [Geoff Thorpe]
8653
8654 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
8655 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
8656 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
8657 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
8658 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
8659 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
8660 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
8661 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
8662 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
8663 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
8664 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
8665 [Bodo Moeller]
8666
8667 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
8668 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
8669 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
8670 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
8671 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
8672
8673 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
8674 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
8675 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
8676 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
8677 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
8678
8679 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
8680 ciphers.
8681
8682 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
8683 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
8684 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
8685 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
8686
8687 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
8688
8689 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
8690 of macros.
8691
8692 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
8693 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
8694 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
8695 flags.
8696
8697 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
8698 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
8699 any installed hardware versions can.
8700 [Steve Henson]
8701
8702 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
8703 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
8704 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
8705 number.
8706 [Bodo Moeller]
8707
8708 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
8709 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
8710 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
8711 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
8712 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
8713
8714 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
8715 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
8716 [Steve Henson]
8717
8718 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
8719 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
8720 [Richard Levitte]
8721
8722 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
8723 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
8724 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
8725 features.
8726 [Steve Henson]
8727
8728 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
8729 [Ulf Möller]
8730
8731 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
8732 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
8733 but no ssl client purpose.
8734 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
8735
8736 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
8737 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
8738 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
8739 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
8740 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
8741 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
8742 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
8743 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
8744 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
8745 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
8746 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
8747 [Steve Henson]
8748
8749 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
8750 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
8751 be obtained from the error queue.
8752 [Bodo Moeller]
8753
8754 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
8755 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
8756 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
8757 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
8758 [Bodo Moeller]
8759
8760 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
8761 [Ulf Möller]
8762
8763 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
8764 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
8765 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
8766 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
8767 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
8768 [Geoff Thorpe]
8769
8770 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
8771 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
8772 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
8773 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
8774 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
8775 [Geoff Thorpe]
8776
8777 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
8778 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
8779 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
8780 may not be NULL.
8781 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
8782
8783 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
8784 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
8785 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
8786 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
8787 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
8788 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
8789 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
8790 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
8791 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
8792 or "the configuration storage API"...
8793
8794 The new configuration file reading functions are:
8795
8796 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
8797 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
8798
8799 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
8800
8801 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
8802
8803 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
8804 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
8805 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
8806 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
8807 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
8808 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
8809 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
8810
8811 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
8812 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
8813 [Richard Levitte]
8814
8815 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
8816 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
8817 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
8818 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
8819 [Bodo Moeller]
8820
8821 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
8822 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
8823 them in a portable way.
8824 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
8825
8826 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
8827
8828 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
8829
8830 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
8831 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
8832
8833 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
8834 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
8835 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
8836 <attili@amaxo.com>]
8837
8838 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
8839 was larger than the MD block size.
8840 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
8841
8842 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
8843 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
8844 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
8845 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
8846 components.
8847 [Steve Henson]
8848
8849 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
8850 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
8851 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
8852
8853 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
8854 discouraged.
8855 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
8856
8857 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
8858 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
8859 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
8860 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
8861 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
8862 Additional arguments are always ignored.
8863
8864 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
8865 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
8866
8867 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
8868 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
8869 [Bodo Moeller]
8870
8871 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
8872 [Bodo Moeller]
8873
8874 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
8875 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
8876 its own key.
8877 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
8878 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
8879 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
8880 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
8881 [Bodo Moeller]
8882
8883 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
8884 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
8885 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
8886 does not suppress any output.
8887 [Richard Levitte]
8888
8889 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
8890 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
8891 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
8892 with all the associated security issues.
8893
8894 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8895 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8896 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8897 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8898 use the value in the default purpose.
8899 [Steve Henson]
8900
8901 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8902 and fix a memory leak.
8903 [Steve Henson]
8904
8905 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8906 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8907 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8908 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8909 [Bodo Moeller]
8910
8911 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8912 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8913 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8914 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8915 [Bodo Moeller]
8916
8917 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8918 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8919 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8920 [Bodo Moeller]
8921
8922 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8923 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8924 [Bodo Moeller]
8925
8926 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8927 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8928 which was free.
8929 [Steve Henson]
8930
8931 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8932 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8933 [Bodo Moeller]
8934
8935 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8936 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8937 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8938 [Bodo Moeller]
8939
8940 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8941 number generation fails.
8942 [Bodo Moeller]
8943
8944 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8945 [Bodo Moeller]
8946
8947 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8948 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8949
8950 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8951 [Ulf Möller]
8952
8953 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8954 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8955
8956 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8957 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8958
8959 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8960
8961 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8962 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8963 [Steve Henson]
8964
8965 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8966 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8967
8968 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8969 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8970 [Ulf Möller]
8971
8972 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8973 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8974 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8975 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8976 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8977 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8978
8979 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8980 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8981 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8982 for example.
8983 [Steve Henson]
8984
8985 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8986 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8987 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8988 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8989 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8990 counter, some don't.)
8991 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8992 counters or duplicate objects.
8993 [Steve Henson]
8994
8995 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8996 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8997 [Steve Henson]
8998
8999 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
9000 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
9001 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
9002
9003 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
9004 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
9005 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
9006 or -rand.
9007 [Ulf Möller]
9008
9009 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
9010 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
9011 [Steve Henson]
9012
9013 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
9014 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
9015 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
9016 cipher list.
9017 [Steve Henson]
9018
9019 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
9020 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
9021 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
9022 [Steve Henson]
9023
9024 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
9025 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
9026 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
9027 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
9028 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
9029 should work without changes.
9030 [Richard Levitte]
9031
9032 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
9033 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
9034 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
9035 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
9036 must be defined. E.g.,
9037 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
9038 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
9039 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
9040 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
9041
9042 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
9043 record layer.
9044 [Bodo Moeller]
9045
9046 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
9047 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
9048 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
9049 [Steve Henson]
9050
9051 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
9052 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
9053 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
9054 request header lines. Some software needs this.
9055 [Steve Henson]
9056
9057 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
9058 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
9059 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
9060 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
9061 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
9062 is prompted for as usual.
9063 [Steve Henson]
9064
9065 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
9066 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
9067 autodetect the card and use it if present.
9068 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
9069
9070 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
9071 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
9072 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
9073 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
9074 [Steve Henson]
9075
9076 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
9077 [Andy Polyakov]
9078
9079 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
9080 of seed file.
9081 [Steve Henson]
9082
9083 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
9084 [Bodo Moeller]
9085
9086 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
9087 [Steve Henson]
9088
9089 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
9090 bits.
9091 [Ulf Möller]
9092
9093 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
9094 [Ulf Möller]
9095
9096 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
9097 [Andy Polyakov]
9098
9099 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
9100 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
9101 [Ulf Möller]
9102
9103 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
9104 options to produce them.
9105 [Steve Henson]
9106
9107 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
9108 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
9109 [Ulf Möller]
9110
9111 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
9112 for p == 0.
9113 [Ulf Möller]
9114
9115 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
9116 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
9117 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
9118 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
9119 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
9120 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
9121 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
9122 [Steve Henson]
9123
9124 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
9125 [Steve Henson]
9126
9127 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
9128 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
9129 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
9130 [Bodo Moeller]
9131
9132 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
9133 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
9134
9135 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
9136 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
9137 [Ulf Möller]
9138
9139 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
9140 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
9141 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
9142 has already seen).
9143 [Bodo Moeller]
9144
9145 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
9146 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
9147
9148 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
9149 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
9150 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
9151 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
9152 generation becomes much faster.
9153
9154 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
9155 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
9156 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
9157 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
9158 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
9159 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
9160 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
9161 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
9162 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
9163 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
9164 [Bodo Moeller]
9165
9166 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
9167 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
9168 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
9169 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
9170 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
9171 trial division stage.
9172 [Bodo Moeller]
9173
9174 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
9175 as ASN1_TIME.
9176 [Steve Henson]
9177
9178 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
9179 [Steve Henson]
9180
9181 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
9182 [Ulf Möller]
9183
9184 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
9185 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
9186 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
9187 the comments.
9188 [Ulf Möller]
9189
9190 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
9191 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
9192 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
9193 [Bodo Moeller]
9194
9195 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
9196 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
9197 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
9198 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9199
9200 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
9201 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
9202 [Steve Henson]
9203
9204 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
9205 [Ulf Möller]
9206
9207 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
9208 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
9209 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
9210 Rabin-Miller iterations.
9211 [Ulf Möller]
9212
9213 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
9214 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
9215 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
9216 [Ulf Möller]
9217
9218 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
9219 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
9220 (instead of parameters) in future.
9221 [Steve Henson]
9222
9223 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
9224 when a new cipher list is set.
9225 [Steve Henson]
9226
9227 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
9228 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
9229 wrong.
9230
9231 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
9232 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
9233 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
9234
9235 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
9236 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
9237 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
9238 an error is flagged.
9239
9240 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
9241 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
9242 the readability was also increased :-)
9243 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9244
9245 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
9246 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
9247 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
9248 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
9249 as the root CA.
9250 [Steve Henson]
9251
9252 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
9253 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
9254 [Steve Henson]
9255
9256 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
9257 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
9258 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
9259 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
9260 instead.
9261
9262 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
9263 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
9264 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
9265 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
9266 because they handle more complex structures.)
9267 [Steve Henson]
9268
9269 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
9270 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
9271 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
9272 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9273
9274 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
9275 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
9276 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
9277 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
9278 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
9279 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
9280 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
9281 [Ulf Möller]
9282
9283 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
9284 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
9285 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
9286 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
9287 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
9288 [Bodo Moeller]
9289
9290 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
9291 [Bodo Moeller]
9292
9293 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
9294 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
9295 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
9296 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
9297 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
9298 to use this.
9299
9300 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
9301 code.
9302 [Steve Henson]
9303
9304 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
9305 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
9306 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
9307 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
9308 [Steve Henson]
9309
9310 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
9311 [Ulf Möller]
9312
9313 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
9314 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
9315 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
9316 international characters are used.
9317
9318 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
9319 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
9320 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
9321 in ASN1 order.
9322 [Steve Henson]
9323
9324 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
9325 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
9326 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
9327 request.
9328
9329 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
9330 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
9331 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
9332 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
9333 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
9334 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
9335
9336 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
9337 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
9338 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
9339 be handled by the string table functions.
9340
9341 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
9342 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
9343 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
9344 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
9345 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
9346 types at all.
9347 [Steve Henson]
9348
9349 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
9350 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
9351 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
9352 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
9353 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
9354
9355 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
9356 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
9357 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
9358 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
9359 [Bodo Moeller]
9360
9361 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
9362 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
9363 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
9364 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
9365 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
9366 SHA1.
9367 [Andy Polyakov]
9368
9369 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
9370 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
9371 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
9372 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
9373 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
9374 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
9375 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
9376 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
9377
9378 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
9379 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
9380 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
9381 [Steve Henson]
9382
9383 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
9384 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
9385 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
9386 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
9387 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
9388 support to pkcs8 application.
9389 [Steve Henson]
9390
9391 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
9392 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
9393 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
9394 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
9395 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
9396 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
9397 [Bodo Moeller]
9398
9399 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
9400 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
9401 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
9402 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
9403 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
9404 consistency.
9405 [Bodo Moeller]
9406
9407 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
9408 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
9409 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
9410 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
9411 example.
9412 [Steve Henson]
9413
9414 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
9415 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
9416 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
9417 and any application specific purposes.
9418
9419 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
9420 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
9421 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
9422 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
9423 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
9424 if the certificate is self signed.
9425 [Steve Henson]
9426
9427 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
9428 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
9429 [Steve Henson]
9430
9431 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
9432 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
9433 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
9434 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
9435 [Steve Henson]
9436
9437 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
9438 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
9439 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
9440 Update documentation.
9441 [Steve Henson]
9442
9443 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
9444 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
9445 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
9446 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
9447 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
9448 [Steve Henson]
9449
9450 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
9451 for details.
9452 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
9453
9454 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
9455 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
9456 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
9457 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
9458 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
9459 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
9460 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
9461 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
9462 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
9463 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
9464
9465 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
9466
9467 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9468 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9469 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
9470 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
9471 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
9472
9473 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
9474 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
9475 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
9476 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
9477 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
9478 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
9479 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
9480 request additional information:
9481 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
9482 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
9483
9484 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
9485 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
9486 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
9487 options.
9488
9489 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
9490 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
9491
9492 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
9493 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
9494 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
9495
9496 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
9497 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
9498
9499 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
9500 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
9501 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
9502 algorithm.
9503 [Steve Henson]
9504
9505 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
9506 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
9507 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
9508
9509 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
9510 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
9511 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
9512 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
9513 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
9514 included in OpenSSL.
9515 [Steve Henson]
9516
9517 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
9518 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
9519 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
9520 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
9521 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
9522 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
9523 [Bodo Moeller]
9524
9525 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
9526 PKCS12 structure.
9527 [Steve Henson]
9528
9529 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
9530 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
9531 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
9532 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
9533 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
9534 structure.
9535 [Steve Henson]
9536
9537 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
9538 need initialising.
9539 [Steve Henson]
9540
9541 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
9542 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
9543 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
9544 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
9545 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
9546 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
9547 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
9548 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
9549 be maintained manually.
9550
9551 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
9552 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
9553 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
9554 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
9555 work because people forget to call this function]
9556 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
9557 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
9558 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
9559 [Steve Henson]
9560
9561 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
9562 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
9563 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
9564 should be discouraged from doing it.
9565 [Ben Laurie]
9566
9567 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
9568 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
9569 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
9570 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
9571 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
9572 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
9573 [Steve Henson]
9574
9575 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
9576 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
9577 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
9578
9579 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
9580 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
9581 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
9582
9583 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
9584 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
9585 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
9586 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
9587 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
9588 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
9589
9590 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
9591 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
9592 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
9593
9594 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
9595 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
9596 and vice versa.
9597
9598 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
9599 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
9600 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
9601 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
9602 [Steve Henson]
9603
9604 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
9605 [Steve Henson]
9606
9607 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
9608 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
9609 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
9610 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
9611 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
9612 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
9613 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
9614 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
9615 keys so we should be OK.
9616
9617 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
9618 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
9619 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
9620 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
9621 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
9622 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
9623 stay in the name of compatibility.
9624
9625 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
9626 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
9627 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
9628
9629 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
9630 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
9631 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
9632 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
9633 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
9634 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
9635 supplied key).
9636 [Steve Henson]
9637
9638 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
9639 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
9640 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
9641 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
9642 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
9643 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
9644 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
9645 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
9646 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
9647 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
9648 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
9649 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
9650 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
9651 [Steve Henson]
9652
9653 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
9654 [Steve Henson]
9655
9656 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
9657 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
9658 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
9659 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
9660 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
9661 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
9662 single self signed certificate. This means that:
9663 openssl verify ss.pem
9664 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
9665 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
9666 is OK.
9667 [Steve Henson]
9668
9669 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
9670 (and add it to external session representation).
9671 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
9672 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
9673 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
9674 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
9675 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
9676 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
9677 security holes.
9678 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
9679
9680 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
9681 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
9682 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
9683 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
9684
9685 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
9686 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
9687 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
9688 [Steve Henson]
9689
9690 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
9691 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
9692 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
9693 code.
9694 [Steve Henson]
9695
9696 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
9697 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
9698 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
9699
9700 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
9701 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
9702 certificate auxiliary information.
9703 [Steve Henson]
9704
9705 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
9706 the 'enc' command.
9707 [Steve Henson]
9708
9709 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
9710 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
9711 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
9712 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
9713 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
9714 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
9715 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
9716 [Richard Levitte]
9717
9718 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
9719 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
9720 [Steve Henson]
9721
9722 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
9723 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
9724 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
9725 manpages and fix a few bugs.
9726 [Steve Henson]
9727
9728 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
9729 [Steve Henson]
9730
9731 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
9732 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
9733 [Steve Henson]
9734
9735 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
9736 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
9737 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
9738 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
9739 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
9740 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
9741 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
9742 using the new 'x509' options.
9743
9744 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
9745 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
9746 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
9747 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
9748 for all purposes.
9749 [Steve Henson]
9750
9751 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
9752 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
9753 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
9754 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
9755 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
9756 [Mark Cox]
9757
9758 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
9759 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
9760 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
9761 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
9762 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
9763 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
9764 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
9765 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
9766 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
9767 the key length and effective key length are equal.
9768 [Steve Henson]
9769
9770 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
9771 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
9772 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
9773 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
9774 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
9775 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
9776 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
9777 [Steve Henson]
9778
9779 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
9780 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
9781 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
9782 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
9783 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
9784 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
9785 openssl.cnf for more info.
9786 [Steve Henson]
9787
9788 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
9789 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
9790 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
9791 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
9792 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
9793 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
9794 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
9795 md should be large enough anyway.
9796 [Bodo Moeller]
9797
9798 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
9799 for handling the random seed file.
9800
9801 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
9802 ca,
9803 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
9804 s_client,
9805 s_server,
9806 x509 (when signing).
9807 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
9808 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
9809 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
9810
9811 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
9812 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
9813 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
9814 that support '-rand'.
9815 [Bodo Moeller]
9816
9817 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
9818 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
9819 [Bodo Moeller]
9820
9821 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
9822 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
9823 [Bill Perry]
9824
9825 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
9826 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
9827 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
9828 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
9829 is suitable.
9830 [Steve Henson]
9831
9832 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
9833 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
9834 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
9835 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
9836 [Steve Henson]
9837
9838 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
9839 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
9840 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
9841 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
9842 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
9843 print out all the purposes.
9844 [Steve Henson]
9845
9846 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
9847 functions.
9848 [Steve Henson]
9849
9850 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
9851 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
9852 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
9853 single function call.
9854 [Steve Henson]
9855
9856 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
9857 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
9858 [Andy Polyakov]
9859
9860 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
9861 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
9862 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
9863 [Steve Henson]
9864
9865 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
9866 when producing the local key id.
9867 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9868
9869 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
9870 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
9871 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
9872 "server.pem".
9873 [Steve Henson]
9874
9875 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
9876 a public key to be input or output. For example:
9877 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
9878 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
9879 [Steve Henson]
9880
9881 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
9882 in the message. This was handled by allowing
9883 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
9884 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
9885
9886 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
9887 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
9888 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
9889 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9890
9891 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
9892 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
9893 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
9894 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9895 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9896 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9897 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9898 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9899 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9900 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9901 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9902 trivial: move one line.
9903 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9904
9905 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9906 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9907 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9908 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9909 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9910 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9911 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9912 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9913 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9914 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9915 with an event loop for example.
9916 [Steve Henson]
9917
9918 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9919 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9920 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9921 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9922 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9923 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9924 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9925 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9926 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9927 [Steve Henson]
9928
9929 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9930 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9931 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9932 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9933 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9934 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9935 [Steve Henson]
9936
9937 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9938 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9939 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9940 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9941
9942 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9943 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9944 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9945 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9946 key generation.
9947 [Steve Henson]
9948
9949 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9950 (still largely untested)
9951 [Bodo Moeller]
9952
9953 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9954 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9955 [Steve Henson]
9956
9957 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9958 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9959 [Steve Henson]
9960
9961 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9962 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9963 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9964 [Bodo Moeller]
9965
9966 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9967 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9968 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9969 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9970 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9971 [Steve Henson]
9972
9973 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9974 [Andy Polyakov]
9975
9976 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9977 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9978 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9979 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9980 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9981 in ca.
9982 [Steve Henson]
9983
9984 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9985 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9986 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9987 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9988 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9989 [Steve Henson]
9990
9991 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9992 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9993 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9994 are otherwise ignored at present.
9995 [Steve Henson]
9996
9997 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9998 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9999 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
10000 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
10001 copied until the next read.
10002 [Steve Henson]
10003
10004 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
10005 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
10006 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
10007 [Steve Henson]
10008
10009 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
10010 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
10011 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
10012 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
10013 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
10014 associated functions.
10015 [Steve Henson]
10016
10017 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
10018 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
10019 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
10020 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
10021 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
10022 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
10023 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
10024 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
10025 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
10026 memory BIOs.
10027 [Steve Henson]
10028
10029 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
10030 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
10031 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
10032 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
10033 [Bodo Moeller]
10034
10035 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
10036 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
10037 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
10038 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
10039 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
10040 functionality.
10041 [Steve Henson]
10042
10043 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
10044 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
10045 under Win32.
10046 [Steve Henson]
10047
10048 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
10049 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
10050 extensions to be obtained and added.
10051 [Steve Henson]
10052
10053 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
10054 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
10055 [Bodo Moeller]
10056
10057 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
10058
10059 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10060 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10061
10062 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
10063 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
10064
10065 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
10066 program.
10067 [Steve Henson]
10068
10069 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
10070 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
10071 DH parameters contain its length).
10072
10073 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
10074 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
10075 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
10076 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
10077 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
10078 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
10079 utter importance to use
10080 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
10081 or
10082 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
10083 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
10084 attacks may become possible!
10085 [Bodo Moeller]
10086
10087 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
10088 [Bodo Moeller]
10089
10090 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
10091 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
10092 [Steve Henson]
10093
10094 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
10095 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
10096 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
10097 or long name.
10098 [Steve Henson]
10099
10100 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
10101 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
10102 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
10103 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
10104 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
10105 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
10106 private key operations.
10107 [Steve Henson]
10108
10109 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
10110 [Andy Polyakov]
10111
10112 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
10113 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
10114 to
10115 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
10116 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
10117 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
10118 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
10119 the password callback is called.
10120 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
10121
10122 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
10123
10124 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
10125 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
10126 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
10127 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
10128 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
10129 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
10130 this will work.
10131
10132 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
10133 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
10134 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
10135 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
10136 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
10137 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
10138 [Bodo Moeller]
10139
10140 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
10141 [Andy Polyakov]
10142
10143 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
10144 delete an unused file.
10145 [Ulf Möller]
10146
10147 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
10148 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
10149 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
10150 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
10151 [Steve Henson]
10152
10153 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
10154 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
10155 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
10156 of an error.
10157 [Bodo Moeller]
10158
10159 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
10160 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
10161 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
10162
10163 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
10164 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
10165 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
10166 comparison" warnings.
10167 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
10168 [Steve Henson]
10169
10170 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
10171 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
10172 derived keys are printed to stderr.
10173 [Steve Henson]
10174
10175 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
10176 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
10177
10178 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
10179 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
10180
10181 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
10182 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
10183 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
10184
10185 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
10186 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
10187 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
10188 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
10189 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
10190 this bug.
10191 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
10192
10193 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
10194 The interface is as follows:
10195 Applications can use
10196 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
10197 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
10198 "off" is now the default.
10199 The library internally uses
10200 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
10201 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
10202 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
10203
10204 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
10205 even the default) are now avoided.
10206
10207 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
10208 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
10209 than just having a counter.
10210
10211 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
10212
10213 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
10214 extensions.
10215 [Bodo Moeller]
10216
10217 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
10218 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
10219 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
10220 Initial "mode" flags are:
10221
10222 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
10223 a single record has been written.
10224 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
10225 retries use the same buffer location.
10226 (But all of the contents must be
10227 copied!)
10228 [Bodo Moeller]
10229
10230 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
10231 worked.
10232
10233 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
10234 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
10235
10236 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
10237 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
10238 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
10239 [Steve Henson]
10240
10241 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
10242 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
10243 test programs.
10244 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
10245
10246 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
10247 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
10248 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
10249 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
10250 point to the end.
10251 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
10252 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
10253
10254 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
10255 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
10256 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
10257 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
10258 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
10259 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
10260 [Steve Henson]
10261
10262 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
10263 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
10264 necessary function names.
10265 [Steve Henson]
10266
10267 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
10268 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
10269 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
10270 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
10271 [Bodo Moeller]
10272
10273 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
10274 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
10275 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
10276 [Steve Henson]
10277
10278 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
10279 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
10280 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
10281 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
10282 such programs?)
10283 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
10284 need locks.
10285 [Bodo Moeller]
10286
10287 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
10288 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
10289 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
10290 [Bodo Moeller]
10291
10292 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
10293 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
10294 appropriate.
10295 [Bodo Moeller]
10296
10297 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
10298 for the encoded length.
10299 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
10300
10301 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
10302 [Steve Henson]
10303
10304 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
10305 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
10306 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
10307 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
10308 [Steve Henson]
10309
10310 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
10311 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
10312 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10313
10314 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
10315 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
10316 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
10317 unusual formatting.
10318 [Steve Henson]
10319
10320 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
10321 to use the new extension code.
10322 [Steve Henson]
10323
10324 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
10325 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
10326 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
10327 constant.
10328 [Steve Henson]
10329
10330 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
10331 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
10332 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
10333 [Bodo Moeller]
10334
10335 #if 0
10336 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
10337 [Ben Laurie]
10338 #else
10339 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
10340 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
10341 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
10342 #endif
10343
10344 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
10345 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
10346 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
10347 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
10348 [Ben Laurie]
10349
10350 *) DES library cleanups.
10351 [Ulf Möller]
10352
10353 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
10354 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
10355 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
10356 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
10357 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
10358 of v2.0.
10359 [Steve Henson]
10360
10361 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
10362 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
10363 [Bodo Moeller]
10364
10365 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
10366 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
10367 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
10368 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
10369 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
10370 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
10371 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
10372 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
10373 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
10374 [Steve Henson]
10375
10376 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
10377 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
10378 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
10379 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
10380 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
10381 value doesn't matter.
10382 [Steve Henson]
10383
10384 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
10385 support mutable.
10386 [Ben Laurie]
10387
10388 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
10389 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
10390 "linux-sparc" configuration.
10391 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
10392
10393 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
10394 [Ulf Möller]
10395
10396 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
10397 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
10398 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10399
10400 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
10401 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10402
10403 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
10404 [Ben Laurie]
10405
10406 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
10407 [Ben Laurie]
10408
10409 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
10410 [Ben Laurie]
10411
10412 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
10413 [Bodo Moeller]
10414
10415
10416 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
10417
10418 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
10419
10420 *) Updated some demos.
10421 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
10422
10423 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
10424 [Wu Zhigang]
10425
10426 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
10427 [Steve Henson]
10428
10429 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
10430 [Steve Henson]
10431
10432 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
10433 instead of using a fixed path.
10434 [Bodo Moeller]
10435
10436 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
10437 [Andy Polyakov]
10438
10439 *) Improvements for VMS support.
10440 [Richard Levitte]
10441
10442
10443 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
10444
10445 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
10446 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
10447 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10448
10449 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
10450 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
10451 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
10452 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
10453 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
10454 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
10455 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
10456 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
10457 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
10458 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
10459 [Steve Henson]
10460
10461 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
10462 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
10463 [Steve Henson]
10464
10465 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
10466 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
10467 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
10468 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
10469 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
10470
10471 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
10472 [Bodo Moeller]
10473
10474 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
10475 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
10476 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
10477 [Steve Henson]
10478
10479 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
10480 [Ben Laurie]
10481
10482 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
10483 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
10484 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
10485 key elements as negative integers.
10486 [Steve Henson]
10487
10488 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
10489 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10490
10491 *) VMS support.
10492 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
10493
10494 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
10495 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
10496 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
10497 [Steve Henson]
10498
10499 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
10500 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
10501 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
10502 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
10503 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
10504 [Bodo Moeller]
10505
10506 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
10507 [Ulf Möller]
10508
10509 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
10510 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
10511 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
10512 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10513
10514 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
10515 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
10516 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
10517
10518 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
10519 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
10520 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
10521 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
10522 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
10523 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
10524 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
10525 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
10526 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
10527
10528 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
10529 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
10530 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
10531 does not influence s as it used to.
10532
10533 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
10534 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
10535 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
10536 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
10537 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
10538 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
10539 [Bodo Moeller]
10540
10541 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
10542 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
10543 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
10544 key type.
10545 [Steve Henson]
10546
10547 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
10548 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
10549 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
10550 and 'x509').
10551 [Steve Henson]
10552
10553 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
10554 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
10555 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
10556 extension option.
10557 [Steve Henson]
10558
10559 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
10560 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
10561 [Ben Laurie]
10562
10563 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
10564 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10565
10566 *) Support Mingw32.
10567 [Ulf Möller]
10568
10569 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
10570 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10571
10572 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
10573 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10574
10575 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
10576 [Ulf Möller]
10577
10578 *) Update HPUX configuration.
10579 [Anonymous]
10580
10581 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
10582 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10583
10584 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
10585 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
10586 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
10587 DER-encoded.)
10588 [Bodo Moeller]
10589
10590 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
10591 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
10592 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
10593 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
10594 now it really counts the depth.
10595 [Bodo Moeller]
10596
10597 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
10598 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
10599 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
10600 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
10601 didn't match the private key).
10602
10603 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
10604 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
10605 connection using the SSL_CTX).
10606 [Bodo Moeller]
10607
10608 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
10609 [Ulf Möller]
10610
10611 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
10612 David Harris.
10613 [Bodo Moeller]
10614
10615 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
10616 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
10617 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
10618 [Bodo Moeller]
10619
10620 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
10621 [Bodo Moeller]
10622
10623 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
10624 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
10625 such as /usr/local/bin.
10626 [Bodo Moeller]
10627
10628 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
10629 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10630
10631 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
10632 [Ulf Möller]
10633
10634 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
10635 extension adding in x509 utility.
10636 [Steve Henson]
10637
10638 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
10639 [Ulf Möller]
10640
10641 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
10642 prototypes.
10643 [Steve Henson]
10644
10645 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
10646 [Ulf Möller]
10647
10648 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
10649 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
10650 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
10651 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
10652 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
10653 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
10654 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
10655 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
10656 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
10657 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
10658 [Steve Henson]
10659
10660 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
10661 [Bodo Moeller]
10662
10663 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
10664 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
10665 [Bodo Moeller]
10666
10667 *) Fix some race conditions.
10668 [Bodo Moeller]
10669
10670 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
10671 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
10672 [Steve Henson]
10673
10674 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
10675 [Ulf Möller]
10676
10677 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
10678 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
10679 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
10680 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
10681
10682 *) Fix lots of warnings.
10683 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10684
10685 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
10686 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
10687 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10688
10689 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
10690 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10691
10692 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
10693 [Ulf Möller]
10694
10695 *) Fix typos in error codes.
10696 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
10697
10698 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
10699 [Ulf Möller]
10700
10701 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
10702 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10703
10704 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
10705 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
10706 [Steve Henson]
10707
10708 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
10709 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
10710 [Ben Laurie]
10711
10712 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
10713 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
10714 [Steve Henson]
10715
10716 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
10717 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
10718 [Steve Henson]
10719
10720 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
10721 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
10722 [Steve Henson]
10723
10724 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
10725 support typesafe stack.
10726 [Steve Henson]
10727
10728 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
10729 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
10730
10731 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
10732 old X509V3 handling code.
10733 [Steve Henson]
10734
10735 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
10736 [Ulf Möller]
10737
10738 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
10739 [Bodo Moeller]
10740
10741 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
10742 [Ben Laurie]
10743
10744 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
10745 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
10746
10747 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
10748 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
10749 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
10750 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
10751 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
10752 [Ben Laurie]
10753
10754 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
10755 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
10756 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
10757 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
10758 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
10759
10760 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
10761 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
10762 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
10763 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10764
10765 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
10766 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
10767 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
10768 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10769
10770 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
10771 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
10772 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
10773 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
10774 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
10775 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
10776 [Bodo Moeller]
10777
10778 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
10779 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
10780 [Bodo Moeller]
10781
10782 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
10783 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
10784 [Ulf Möller]
10785
10786 *) Tweaks to Configure
10787 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10788
10789 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
10790 yet...
10791 [Steve Henson]
10792
10793 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
10794 [Ulf Möller]
10795
10796 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
10797 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
10798 [Ulf Möller]
10799
10800 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
10801 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
10802 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
10803 [Bodo Moeller]
10804
10805 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
10806 [Bodo Moeller]
10807
10808 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
10809 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
10810 [Steve Henson]
10811
10812 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
10813 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
10814 to library startup routines.
10815 [Steve Henson]
10816
10817 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
10818 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
10819 codes along the way.
10820 [Steve Henson]
10821
10822 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
10823 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
10824 objects to objects.h
10825 [Steve Henson]
10826
10827 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
10828 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
10829 [Steve Henson]
10830
10831 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
10832 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
10833
10834 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
10835 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
10836 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
10837
10838 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
10839 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10840 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10841
10842 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
10843 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
10844 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
10845
10846
10847 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
10848
10849 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
10850 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
10851 [Ben Laurie]
10852
10853 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
10854 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
10855 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
10856 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
10857 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
10858
10859 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
10860 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
10861 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
10862 document.
10863 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10864
10865 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
10866 Malloc, Free.
10867 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
10868
10869 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
10870 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10871
10872 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
10873 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
10874 if someone would make that last step automatic.
10875 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
10876
10877 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
10878 [Ben Laurie]
10879
10880 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
10881 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
10882 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
10883 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
10884 [Steve Henson]
10885
10886 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
10887 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
10888 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
10889 [Steve Henson]
10890
10891 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
10892 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
10893 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
10894 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10895 installed as `perl').
10896 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10897
10898 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10899 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10900
10901 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10902 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
10903 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10904 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10905 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10906 [Steve Henson]
10907
10908 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10909 [Ben Laurie]
10910
10911 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10912 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10913 is horrible: I feel ill....
10914 [Steve Henson]
10915
10916 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10917 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10918 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10919 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10920 [Steve Henson]
10921
10922 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10923 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10924
10925 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10926 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10927 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10928 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10929
10930 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10931 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10932 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10933 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10934 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10935 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10936 openssl_bio.xs.
10937 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10938
10939 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10940 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10941
10942 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10943 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10944
10945 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10946 [Ben Laurie]
10947
10948 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10949 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10950 in CRLs.
10951 [Steve Henson]
10952
10953 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10954 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10955 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10956 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10957 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10958 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10959 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10960 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10961 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10962 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10963 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10964
10965 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10966 [Ben Laurie]
10967
10968 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10969 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10970 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10971 for linking it into DSOs.
10972 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10973
10974 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10975 Fixed.
10976 [Ben Laurie]
10977
10978 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10979 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10980 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10981 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10982 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10983 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10984
10985 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10986 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10987 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10988 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10989 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10990 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10991 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10992
10993 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10994 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10995 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10996 encryption.
10997 [Ben Laurie]
10998
10999 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
11000 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
11001 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
11002 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
11003 [Steve Henson]
11004
11005 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
11006 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
11007 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
11008 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
11009 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
11010 field as blank.
11011 [Steve Henson]
11012
11013 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
11014 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
11015 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
11016 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
11017 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11018
11019 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
11020 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
11021 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
11022
11023 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
11024 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
11025
11026 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
11027 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
11028 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
11029 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
11030 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
11031 [Steve Henson]
11032
11033 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
11034 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
11035 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
11036 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
11037 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
11038 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
11039 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
11040 [Ben Laurie]
11041
11042 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
11043 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
11044 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
11045 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
11046 [Ben Laurie]
11047
11048 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
11049 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
11050
11051 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
11052 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
11053 [Steve Henson]
11054
11055 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
11056 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
11057 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
11058 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
11059 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
11060 (e.g. s_server).
11061 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
11062 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
11063 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
11064 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
11065 no way to reconfigure them.
11066 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
11067 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
11068 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
11069 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
11070 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
11071 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11072
11073 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
11074 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
11075 recognized by the users.
11076 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11077
11078 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
11079 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
11080 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
11081 already masked variable.
11082 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11083
11084 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
11085 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11086
11087 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
11088 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
11089 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
11090 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11091
11092 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
11093 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
11094 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11095
11096 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
11097 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
11098 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
11099 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
11100 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
11101 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
11102 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
11103 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
11104 now, too.
11105 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11106
11107 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
11108 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
11109 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11110
11111 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
11112 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
11113 config file.
11114 [Steve Henson]
11115
11116 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
11117 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
11118
11119 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
11120 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
11121 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
11122 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
11123 [Ben Laurie]
11124
11125 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
11126 [Steve Henson]
11127
11128 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
11129 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11130
11131 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
11132 [Ben Laurie]
11133
11134 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
11135 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
11136 [Steve Henson]
11137
11138 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
11139 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
11140 [Steve Henson]
11141
11142 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
11143 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
11144 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
11145 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
11146 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
11147 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
11148 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
11149 Ben Laurie]
11150
11151 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
11152 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11153
11154 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
11155 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
11156 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
11157 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
11158 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11159
11160 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
11161 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
11162 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
11163 [Steve Henson]
11164
11165 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
11166 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
11167 an example.
11168 [Steve Henson]
11169
11170 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
11171 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
11172 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11173
11174 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
11175 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
11176 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
11177 build instructions.
11178 [Steve Henson]
11179
11180 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
11181 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
11182 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
11183 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
11184 [Steve Henson]
11185
11186 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
11187 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
11188 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
11189 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
11190 [Ben Laurie]
11191
11192 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
11193 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
11194 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
11195 so it wasn't spotted.
11196 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
11197
11198 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
11199 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
11200 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
11201 vectors if you have them.
11202 [Ben Laurie]
11203
11204 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
11205 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
11206 [Ben Laurie]
11207
11208 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
11209 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
11210 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
11211 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
11212 If you do a:
11213 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
11214 it will update them.
11215 [Steve Henson]
11216
11217 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
11218 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
11219 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
11220 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
11221 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
11222 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
11223 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
11224 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11225
11226 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
11227 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
11228 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
11229 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
11230 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
11231 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
11232 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
11233 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
11234 the crypto/md/ stuff).
11235 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11236
11237 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
11238 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
11239 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
11240 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
11241 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
11242 [Steve Henson]
11243
11244 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
11245 INTEGER code.
11246 [Steve Henson]
11247
11248 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
11249 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11250
11251 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
11252 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11253
11254 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
11255 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
11256 [Ben Laurie]
11257
11258 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
11259 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
11260
11261 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
11262 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
11263
11264 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
11265 [Steve Henson]
11266
11267 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
11268 few typos.
11269 [Steve Henson]
11270
11271 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
11272 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
11273 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
11274 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11275
11276 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
11277 [Steve Henson]
11278
11279 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
11280 [Steve Henson]
11281
11282 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
11283 [Steve Henson]
11284
11285 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
11286 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
11287 [Steve Henson]
11288
11289 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
11290 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
11291 CA extensions.
11292 [Steve Henson]
11293
11294 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
11295 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
11296 [Steve Henson]
11297
11298 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
11299 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
11300 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
11301 [Steve Henson]
11302
11303 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
11304 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
11305 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
11306 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
11307 properly to be processed.
11308 [Steve Henson]
11309
11310 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
11311 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
11312 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
11313 [Ben Laurie]
11314
11315 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
11316 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
11317
11318 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
11319 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
11320 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
11321 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
11322 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
11323 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
11324 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
11325 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
11326 or delete all the .err files.
11327 [Steve Henson]
11328
11329 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
11330 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
11331 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
11332 to regenerate it if needed.
11333 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
11334 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
11335
11336 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
11337 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11338
11339 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
11340 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
11341 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
11342 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
11343 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
11344 [Steve Henson]
11345
11346 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
11347 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11348
11349 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
11350 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11351
11352 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
11353 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
11354 error, but didn't set one).
11355 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11356
11357 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
11358 [Ben Laurie]
11359
11360 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
11361 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
11362 [Steve Henson]
11363
11364 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
11365 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
11366
11367 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
11368 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
11369 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
11370 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
11371 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
11372 OID is not part of the table.
11373 [Steve Henson]
11374
11375 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
11376 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
11377 [Ben Laurie]
11378
11379 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
11380 [Ben Laurie]
11381
11382 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
11383 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
11384 was "1234").
11385 [Steve Henson]
11386
11387 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
11388 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
11389
11390 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
11391 NULL pointers.
11392 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11393
11394 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
11395 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11396
11397 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
11398 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11399
11400 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
11401 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11402
11403 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
11404 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
11405 [Ben Laurie]
11406
11407 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
11408 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
11409 [Steve Henson]
11410
11411 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
11412 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11413
11414 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
11415 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11416
11417 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
11418 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11419
11420 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
11421 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11422
11423 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
11424 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
11425 unused in the certificate verification process.
11426 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11427
11428 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
11429 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
11430 [Steve Henson]
11431
11432 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
11433 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
11434 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
11435
11436 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
11437 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
11438 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
11439 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
11440 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
11441
11442 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
11443 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
11444 [Steve Henson]
11445
11446 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
11447 [Steve Henson]
11448
11449 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
11450 [Paul Sutton]
11451
11452 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
11453 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
11454
11455 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
11456 [Ben Laurie]
11457
11458 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
11459 [Ben Laurie]
11460
11461 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
11462 [Ben Laurie]
11463
11464 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
11465 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
11466 other error libraries.
11467 [Steve Henson]
11468
11469 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
11470 [Steve Henson]
11471
11472 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
11473 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
11474 be read in.
11475 [Steve Henson]
11476
11477 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
11478 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
11479 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
11480 the new set of documenation files.
11481 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11482
11483 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
11484 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
11485 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
11486 number of arguments.
11487 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
11488
11489 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
11490 [Ben Laurie]
11491
11492 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
11493 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
11494 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11495
11496 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
11497 [Ben Laurie]
11498
11499 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
11500 nextstep
11501 ncr-scde
11502 unixware-2.0
11503 unixware-2.0-pentium
11504 sco5-cc.
11505 [Ben Laurie]
11506
11507 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
11508 before they are needed.
11509 [Ben Laurie]
11510
11511 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
11512 [Ben Laurie]
11513
11514

11518 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
11519 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11520
11521 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
11522 [Paul Sutton]
11523
11524 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
11525 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
11526 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11527
11528 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
11529 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
11530 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
11531
11532 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
11533 when "ssleay" is still not found.
11534 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11535
11536 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
11537 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
11538
11539 *) Updated the README file.
11540 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11541
11542 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
11543 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
11544 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11545
11546 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
11547 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.

11566 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
11567 [Mark J. Cox]
11568
11569 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
11570 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
11571 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
11572 summer 1998.
