Bodo Möller85379432003-02-11 16:42:30 +00005 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.8 [xx XXX xxxx]
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00006
Geoff Thorpebba2cb32003-03-13 20:28:42 +00007 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
8 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
9 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
10 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
11 [Geoff Thorpe]
12
Geoff Thorpe879650b2003-03-11 01:49:21 +000013 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
14 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
15 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
16 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
17 default implementation more easily.
18 [Geoff Thorpe]
19
Dr. Stephen Hensonf0dc08e2003-02-27 01:54:11 +000020 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
21 in config files.
22 [Steve Henson]
23
Richard Levitte132eaa52003-02-22 14:41:34 +000024 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
25 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
26 [Richard Levitte]
27
Dr. Stephen Henson5562cfa2003-02-22 02:12:52 +000028 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
29 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
30 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
31 [Steve Henson]
32
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +000033 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
34 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
35 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
36 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
37
Dr. Stephen Hensone9ec6392003-02-25 19:03:31 +000038 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +000039 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
40 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
41 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
42 [Steve Henson]
43
Richard Levitte2d3de722003-02-13 23:52:54 +000044 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
45 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
46 to do it.
47 [Richard Levitte]
48
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +000049 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +000050 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +000051 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +000052 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +000053 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
54 scalar * generator).
55 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
56
Dr. Stephen Henson4e5d3a72003-02-05 00:34:31 +000057 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
58 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
59 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
60 correctly.
61 [Steve Henson]
62
Geoff Thorpe96f70652003-01-30 15:52:40 +000063 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
64 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
65 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
66 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
67 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
68 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
69 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
70 linker additions, eg;
71 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
72 [Geoff Thorpe]
73
74 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
75 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
76 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
77 [Geoff Thorpe]
78
Lutz Jänickea74333f2003-01-15 14:54:59 +000079 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
80 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
81 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
82 via PR#459)
83 [Lutz Jaenicke]
84
Geoff Thorpe0e4aa0d2003-01-15 02:01:55 +000085 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
86 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
87 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
88 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
89 [Geoff Thorpe]
90
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +000091 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
92 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
93 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
94 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
95 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
96 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
97 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
98 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
99 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
100 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +0000101
102 Example for using the new callback interface:
103
104 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
105 void *my_arg = ...;
106 BN_GENCB my_cb;
107
108 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
109
110 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
111 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
112 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
113 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
114 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
115 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
116 */
117
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +0000118 [Geoff Thorpe]
119
Richard Levittefdaea9e2002-12-08 09:31:41 +0000120 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
121 available to TLS with the number defined in
122 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
123 [Richard Levitte]
124
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +0000125 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
126 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
127
128 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +0000129 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
130 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
131 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +0000132
133 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
134 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
135
136 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
137 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
138 well.
139 [Richard Levitte]
140
Richard Levitte6f17f162002-11-15 16:48:38 +0000141 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
142 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
143 [Richard Levitte]
144
Bodo Möllerb53e44e2002-11-04 13:17:22 +0000145 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating new macros that behave like
146 functions
147
148 void BN_set_sign(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
149 int BN_get_sign(const BIGNUM *a);
150
151 and avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
152 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
153
Bodo Möller5c6bf032002-10-28 13:23:24 +0000154 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
155 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
156 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
157 if applicable.
158 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
159
Bodo Möller19b8d062002-10-28 14:02:19 +0000160 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
161 [Bodo Moeller]
162
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +0000163 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
164 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
165 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
166 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
167 directory engines/.
168 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
169 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
170 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
171 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
Richard Levitte874fee42002-10-12 16:07:31 +0000172 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
173 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
174 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +0000175 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
176
Richard Levitte30afcc02002-10-11 00:37:11 +0000177 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
178 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
179 [Richard Levitte]
180
Dr. Stephen Hensonfc6a6a12002-10-04 21:22:47 +0000181 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
182 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
183
Dr. Stephen Henson9a48b072002-10-03 23:53:52 +0000184 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
185 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
186 files while avoiding the low level API.
187
188 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
189 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
190 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
191 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
192
193 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
194 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
195 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
196 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
197 instead of the low level API.
198 [Steve Henson]
199
Dr. Stephen Henson230fd6b2002-10-03 12:38:52 +0000200 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
201 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
202 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
203 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
204 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
205 PKCS#7 code.
206
207 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
208 down to the template encoder.
209 [Steve Henson]
210
Bodo Möller9226e212002-09-10 07:34:45 +0000211 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
212 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
213 [Bodo Moeller]
214
Bodo Möllerea262262002-08-09 08:56:08 +0000215 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
216 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
217 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
218 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
219
Bodo Möllere172d602002-08-09 08:43:04 +0000220 *) Add ECDH engine support.
221 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
222
223 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
224 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
225
Bodo Möller95ecacf2002-08-02 15:02:03 +0000226 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
227 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
228 [Bodo Moeller]
229
Bodo Möller6fb60a82002-08-02 14:57:53 +0000230 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
231 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
232 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
233 [Bodo Moeller]
234
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +0000235 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
236 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
237
238 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
239 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
240
241 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
242 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
243 New EC_METHOD:
244
245 EC_GF2m_simple_method
246
247 New API functions:
248
249 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
250 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
251 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +0000252 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
253 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
254 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
255
256 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
257 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
258 enable it).
259
260 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
261 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
262 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
263 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
264 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +0000265 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
266 various internal method names.)
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +0000267
268 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
269 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
270
271 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
272 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
273
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +0000274 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +0000275 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
276
277 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
278 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
279 methods are undefined.
280
281 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
282 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
283
284 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
285 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
286 length of the modulus.
287
288 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
289 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
290
291 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
292 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
293
294 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
295 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
296
Bodo Möller1dc920c2002-08-02 13:03:55 +0000297 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
298 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
299 used) in the following functions [macros]:
300
301 BN_GF2m_add
302 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
303 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
304 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
305 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
306 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
307 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
308 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
309 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
310 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
311
312 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
313 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
314
315 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
316 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
317 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
318 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
319 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
320 where
321 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
322 This applies to the following functions:
323
324 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
325 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
326 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
327 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
328 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
329 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
330 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
331 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
332 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
333 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
334
335 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
336
337 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
338 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
339
340 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
341
Bodo Möller909abce2002-08-02 18:26:02 +0000342 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
343 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
344 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
345 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
346 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
Bodo Möller1dc920c2002-08-02 13:03:55 +0000347
348 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
349 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
350
Bodo Möller16dc1cf2002-08-02 12:28:34 +0000351 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
352 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
353 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
354
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +0000355 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
356 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
357
358 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
359 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
360 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
361 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
362 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
363
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +0000364 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
365 functions
366 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
367 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
368 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
369 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
370 These control ASN1 encoding details:
Bodo Möllerb8e0e122002-06-12 14:19:01 +0000371 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
372 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +0000373 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +0000374 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
375 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
376 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
377 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +0000378
379 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
380 functions
381 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
382 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
383 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
384 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
Bodo Möller458c2912002-06-10 12:18:21 +0000385 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
386
387 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
388 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
389 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
390 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
391

Dr. Stephen Hensoncf566632003-02-12 17:06:02 +0000499 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
500 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
501 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
502 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
503
504 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
505
506 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
507
508 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
509
510 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
511 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
512 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
513 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
514 root is omitted).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000763 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short

Dr. Stephen Henson0dc09232002-03-06 14:15:13 +0000773 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
774 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
775 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
776 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
777 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000780 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
Bodo Möller023ec152002-02-28 10:52:56 +0000781 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
782 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
783 declaration has been changed from
784 int (*cb)()
785 into
786 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
787 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
788 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
789 has been changed into
790 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
791

Dr. Stephen Hensone84be9b2002-02-23 01:00:44 +0000800 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
801 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
802 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
803 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
804 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
805 always load it have also been added.

Dr. Stephen Henson3647bee2002-02-22 14:01:21 +0000813
814 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
815 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
816 because it couldn't be used for anything.
817
818 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
819 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
820 command line option can be used to specify an
821 alternative file.

920
921 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
922 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
923 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
924 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
925 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
926 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
927 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
928 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
929 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
930 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().

Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +0000971 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
972 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is

974 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +0000975
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +0000976 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
977 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
978 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
979 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
980
981 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
982 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
983 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
984 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
985
986 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
987 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
988 won't work.

Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00001032 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
1033 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
1034 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
1035 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
1036 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
1037 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
1038 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
1039 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
1040 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
1041 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
1042 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
1043 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
1044 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
1045 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
1046 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
1047 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
1048 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
1049 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
1050 the new code.

1063 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
1064 false once a handshake has been completed.
1065 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
1066 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
1067 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
1068 client has followed the request.)

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001071 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00001072 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
1073 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
1074 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.

1076 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001093 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +00001094 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
1095 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
1096 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001099 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00001100 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
1101 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
1102 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
1103 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
1104 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
1105 [Geoff Thorpe]
1106
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001107 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00001108 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
1109 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
1110 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
1111 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
1112 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
1113 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
1114 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).

1123
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001124 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the

1127
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001128 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00001129 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
1130 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
1131 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
1132 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
1133 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
1134 [Ben Laurie]
1135
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001136 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00001137 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
1138 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
1139 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
1140 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
1141 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
1142 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
1143 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
1144 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
1145 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
1146 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
1147 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
1148 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
1149 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
1150 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +00001151
1152 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
1153 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
1154 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00001155 [Geoff Thorpe]
1156
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001157 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +00001158 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
1159 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
1160 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
1161 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
1162 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
1163 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
1164 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
1165 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
1166 [Geoff Thorpe]
1167
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001168 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00001169 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
1170 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
1171 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
1172 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +00001173
1174 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".

1185 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().

Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00001191 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +00001192 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not

1195 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001227 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +00001228 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
1229 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
1230 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
1231 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
1232 functions prevents this.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001332 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
Richard Levitte79bb8d02001-05-26 16:58:34 +00001333 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
1334 kind of callback.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001337 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
Lutz Jänickee8734732001-05-15 16:02:35 +00001338 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
1339 than this minimum value is recommended.

1345
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001346 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
Dr. Stephen Henson4831e622001-05-12 23:57:41 +00001347 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
1348
1349 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
1350
1351 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001352 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
Dr. Stephen Henson4831e622001-05-12 23:57:41 +00001353 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
1354 needed for static libraries under Win32.
1355 [Steve Henson]
1356
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001357 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
Dr. Stephen Henson926a56b2001-05-10 00:13:59 +00001358 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
1359 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
1360 [Steve Henson]
1361
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001362 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdee69f2001-05-09 00:30:39 +00001363 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
1364 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
1365 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
1366 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
1367 internally such as S/MIME.
1368
1369 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
1370 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
1371 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
1372
1373 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
1374 applications.
1375 [Steve Henson]
1376
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001377 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
Dr. Stephen Hensonb545dc62001-05-07 22:52:50 +00001378 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
1379 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
1380 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
1381
1382 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
1383
1384 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
1385
1386 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
1387 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
1388 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
1389 handling.
1390 [Steve Henson]
1391
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001392 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
Bodo Möller8a774dc2001-06-11 09:55:20 +00001393 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
1394 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
1395 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
1396 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
1397 a window system and the like.

1399
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001400 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00001401 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
1402 [Geoff]
1403
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001404 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00001405 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
1406 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
1407 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
1408 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
1409 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
1410 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
1411 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
1412 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
1413 ENGINE structure.
1414 [Geoff]
1415
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001416 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9624792001-04-21 12:06:01 +00001417 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
1418 tag cache.
1419 [Steve Henson]
1420
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001421 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00001422 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
1423 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
1424 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
1425 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
1426 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
1427 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
1428 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
1429 [Geoff]
1430
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001431 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00001432 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
1433 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
1434 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
1435 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
1436 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
1437 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
1438 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
1439 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
1440 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
1441 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
1442 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
1443 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
1444 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
1445 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
1446 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
1447 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
1448 [Geoff]
1449
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001450 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00001451 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
1452 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
1453 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
1454 internal engine_int.h header.
1455 [Geoff]
1456
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001457 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00001458 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
1459 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
1460 modify their own ones).
1461 [Geoff]
1462
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001463 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00001464 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
1465 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
1466 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
1467 later on via ctrl() commands.
1468 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
1469 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
1470 structural references.
1471 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
1472 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
1473 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
1474 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
1475 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Möllere13ae962001-09-10 18:59:53 +00001476 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00001477 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
1478 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
1479 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
1480 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
1481 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
1482 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001485 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001486 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +00001487 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
1488 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
1489 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
1490 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
1491 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
1492 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

1497 [Steve Henson]
1498
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001499 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies

1502
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001503 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
Dr. Stephen Henson535d79d2001-03-15 19:13:40 +00001504 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
1505 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
1506 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
1507 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
1508 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
1509 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

Bodo Möller48fe4d62001-03-10 23:18:35 +00001524
1525 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
1526 operations and provides various method functions that can also
1527 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.

1529 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of

1544 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001549 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001560 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001606 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001607 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
1608 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
1609 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
1610 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
1611 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
1612
1613 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
1614 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
1615
1616 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
1617 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1618
1619 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
1620 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
1621
1622 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
1623 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
1624 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1625 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
1626
1627 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001628 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001629
1630 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001631 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001632
1633 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
1634 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
1635 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
1636 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
1637 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).

Dr. Stephen Henson3d2e4692001-02-28 00:51:48 +00001641 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
1642 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
1643 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
1644 [Steve Henson]
1645
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001646 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
Dr. Stephen Hensonfafc7f92001-02-26 14:17:58 +00001647 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
1648 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
1649 trust settings.
1650 [Steve Henson]
1651
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001652 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00001653 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
1654 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
1655 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001656 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00001657 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
1658 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
1659 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
1660 ocsp utility.
1661 [Steve Henson]
1662
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001663 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001664 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
Dr. Stephen Henson4ff18c82001-02-24 01:42:21 +00001665 [Steve Henson]
1666
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001667 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
Dr. Stephen Hensond7c06e92001-02-23 13:04:24 +00001668 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
1669 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
1670 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
1671 [Steve Henson]
1672
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001673 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00001674 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
1675 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
1676 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
1677 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
1678 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
1679 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
1680 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
1681 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
1682 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
1683 [Steve Henson]
1684
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001685 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00001686 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
1687 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
1688 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
1689 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
1690 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
1691 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
1692 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
1693
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001694 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
Richard Levitted399fdf2001-02-21 14:12:03 +00001695 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
1696 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
1697 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
1698 [Richard Levitte]
1699
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001700 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00001701 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
1702 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
1703 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
1704 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00001705 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
1706 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
1707 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
1708 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
1709 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
1710 what is available.
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00001711 [Richard Levitte]
1712
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001713 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
Dr. Stephen Hensonacba75c2001-02-19 13:38:32 +00001714 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
1715 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
1716 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
1717 auto incremented.
1718 [Steve Henson]
1719
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001720 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6b7ffd2001-02-16 01:35:44 +00001721 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
1722 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
1723 [Steve Henson]
1724
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001725 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
Dr. Stephen Hensonf2e5ca82001-02-14 02:11:52 +00001726 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
1727 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
1728 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
1729 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
1730 [Steve Henson]
1731
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001732 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
Dr. Stephen Hensoncdc7b8c2001-02-14 01:12:41 +00001733 [Steve Henson]
1734
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001735 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
Dr. Stephen Henson67c18012001-02-13 00:37:44 +00001736 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
1737 option to ocsp utility.
1738 [Steve Henson]
1739
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001740 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00001741 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
1742 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
1743 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
1744 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
1745 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
1746 the request is nonce-less.
1747 [Steve Henson]
1748
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001749 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
Bodo Möller620cea32001-02-10 13:12:35 +00001750 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
1751 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
1752 [Bodo Moeller]
1753
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001754 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
Dr. Stephen Hensonccb08f92001-02-10 00:56:45 +00001755 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
1756 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
1757 [Steve Henson]
1758
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001759 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
Lutz Jänicke836f9962001-02-09 19:56:31 +00001760 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
1761 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
1762 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
Lutz Jänickeb72fadd2001-08-01 10:07:55 +00001763 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
Lutz Jänicke836f9962001-02-09 19:56:31 +00001764 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1765
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001766 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
Dr. Stephen Hensonc47c6192001-02-09 13:16:21 +00001767 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
1768 appear to exist.
1769 [Steve Henson]
1770
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001771 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
Dr. Stephen Henson8c950422001-02-08 19:36:10 +00001772 additional certificates supplied.
1773 [Steve Henson]
1774
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001775 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
Richard Levitte9235adb2001-02-08 17:59:29 +00001776 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
1777 signature against.
1778 [Richard Levitte]
1779
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001780 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00001781 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +00001782 AES OIDs.
1783
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00001784 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
1785 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
1786 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
1787 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
1788 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
1789 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
1790 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
1791 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
1792 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00001793
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001794 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
Dr. Stephen Henson26e083c2001-02-05 00:35:06 +00001795 request to response.
1796 [Steve Henson]
1797
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001798 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00001799 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
1800 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
1801 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
1802 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001803 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00001804 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
1805 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
1806 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
1807 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
1808 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
1809 [Steve Henson]
1810
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001811 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00001812 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001813 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00001814 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
1815 [Steve Henson]
1816
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001817 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8470242001-01-28 14:20:13 +00001818 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1819
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001820 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00001821 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001822 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00001823 [Steve Henson]
1824
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001825 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00001826 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
1827 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.

1829 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1830
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001831 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00001832 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
1833 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
1834 [Steve Henson]
1835
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001836 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00001837 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
1838 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
1839 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
1840 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
1841 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

1843 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1844
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001845 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00001846 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
1847 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
1848 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
1849 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
1850 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
1851 [Steve Henson]
1852
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001853 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00001854 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
1855 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
1856 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
1857 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
1858 printout format cleaned up.
1859 [Steve Henson]
1860
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001861 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00001862 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
1863 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
1864 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
1865 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
1866 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
1867 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
1868 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
1869 [Steve Henson]
1870
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001871 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00001872 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
1873 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
1874 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
1875 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
1876 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
1877 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
1878 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
1879 [Steve Henson]
1880
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001881 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
Bodo Möllerdfebac32001-01-15 11:35:24 +00001882 extensions from a separate configuration file.
1883 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
1884 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
1885 section to use.

1887
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001888 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
Dr. Stephen Henson5782ceb2001-01-13 01:48:38 +00001889 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
1890 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
1891 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
1892 [Steve Henson]
1893
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001894 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
Bodo Möllerc67cdb52001-01-12 14:50:44 +00001895 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
1896 the given serial number (according to the index file).
1897 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
1898 in the index file.

1900
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001901 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
Bodo Möllerd1998582001-01-11 13:23:19 +00001902 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
1903 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.

1908
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001909 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
Dr. Stephen Henson9b4dc832001-01-11 00:52:50 +00001910 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
1911 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
1912 [Steve Henson]
1913
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001914 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001919 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00001920 file name and line number information in additional arguments
1921 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
1922 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
1923 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
1924 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
1925 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
1926 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +00001927
1928 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
1929 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
1930 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions

1932
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00001933 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
1934 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
1935 extended allocation function is enabled.
1936 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
1937 a conventional allocation function is enabled.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001947 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00001948 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
1949 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
1950 be queried.
1951 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
1952 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
1953 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001956 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00001957 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
1958 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
1959 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
1960 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
1961 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
1962 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
1963 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
1964 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001967 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00001968 provide utility functions which an application needing
1969 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
1970 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
1971 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
1972
1973 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
1974 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
1975 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
1976 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
1977 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
1978 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
1979 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
1980 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
1981 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
1982
1983 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
1984 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
1985 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
1986 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
1987 [Steve Henson]
1988
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001989 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00001990 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
1991 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
1992 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
1993 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
1994 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
1995 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
1996 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
1997 will be added elsewhere.

1999
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002000 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from

2002 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
2003 can be used to send requests and parse the response.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002006 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00002007 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
2008 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
2009 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
2010 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
2011 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
2012 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
2013 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
2014 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
2015 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
2016 to produce the required SET OF.

2027 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
2028 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant

Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00002193 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
2194 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002197 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00002198 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00002199 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
2200 and add new functions:

Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00002215 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
2216 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +00002217
2218 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
2219 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
2220 be reduced modulo m.

2224 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
2225 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
2226 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
2227
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002228 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00002229 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
2230 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00002231 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
2232 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00002233 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
2234 differing sizes.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002238 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00002239 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
2240 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
2241 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
2242 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
2243
2244 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
2245 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
2246 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
2247 cause any problems.
2248 [Bodo Moeller]
2249
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002250 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.

2252
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002253 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
Richard Levittee06433d2000-11-07 11:25:26 +00002254 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
2255 [Richard Levitte]
2256
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002257 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00002258 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
2259 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
2260 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
2261 time)

2266
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002267 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.

2269
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002270 *) Add the following functions:
Richard Levitte11c0f122000-11-02 20:33:04 +00002271
2272 ENGINE_load_cswift()
2273 ENGINE_load_chil()
2274 ENGINE_load_atalla()
2275 ENGINE_load_nuron()
2276 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
2277
2278 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
2279 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
2280 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
2281 libraries unless it's really needed.
2282
2283 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
2284 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
2285 declarations (they differed!).
2286 [Richard Levitte]

2296
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002297 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
Richard Levitte14c6d272000-11-01 02:57:35 +00002298 identity, and test if they are actually available.
2299 [Richard Levitte]
2300
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002301 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002322 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
Geoff Thorpe1df586b2000-10-26 20:02:33 +00002323 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename

2330
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002331 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
Dr. Stephen Henson627ec352000-10-20 00:36:45 +00002332 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
2333 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
2334 of two sections.

2336
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002337 *) NCONF changes.
Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00002338 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
2339 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
2340 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
2341 binary backward compatibility.
2342 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
2343 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
2344 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
2345 LDAP server.
2346 [Richard Levitte]
2347
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002348 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
Dr. Stephen Henson924046c2000-10-12 01:50:33 +00002349 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
2350 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
2351 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
2352 this case.
2353 [Steve Henson]
2354
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002355 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.

2357
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002358 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
Dr. Stephen Henson8ca533e2000-10-06 11:51:47 +00002359 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function

2369
2370 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
2371 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
2372 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
2373 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
2374 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CAN-2003-0078)

Dr. Stephen Henson2af52de2002-08-14 00:48:02 +00002381
Richard Levittedf29cc82002-11-27 12:24:05 +00002382 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
2383 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
2384 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
2385 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
2386 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
2387 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
2388 [Geoff Thorpe]
2389
Lutz Jänicke6a8afe22002-11-20 10:48:58 +00002390 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
2391 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
2392 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
2393 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.

2395 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2396

2398 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
2399 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
2400
Richard Levitte84034f72002-11-15 13:58:11 +00002401 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
2402 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
2403 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
2404 EVP_cleanup().

2409 [Richard Levitte]
2410
Richard Levittec81a1502002-11-09 21:52:20 +00002411 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
2412 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
2413 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
2414 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
2415
Geoff Thorpe9c3db402002-10-29 18:01:08 +00002416 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
2417 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
2418 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
2419 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
2420 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
2421 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
2422 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
2423 change.

2477 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
2478 by the selection routines (PR #130).
2479 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2480
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00002481 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
2482 [Nils Larsch]
2483
Bodo Möllerc21506b2002-06-14 12:21:11 +00002484 *) New option
2485 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
2486 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
2487 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
2488
2489 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
2490 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
2491 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
2492 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
2493 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
2494 applications.
2495 [Bodo Moeller]
2496
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00002497 *) Changes in security patch:
2498
2499 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
2500 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
2501 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
2502 F30602-01-2-0537.
2503
2504 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
2505 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
2506 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
2507 supplied buffer. (CAN-2002-0659)
2508 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
2509
2510 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
2511 happen in practice.
2512 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2513
2514 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
2515 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CAN-2002-0655)
2516 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
2517
2518 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00002519 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CAN-2002-0656)
2520 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2521
2522 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
2523 supply an oversized client master key. (CAN-2002-0656)
2524 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2525
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00002526 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00002527
Bodo Möller8df61b52002-04-26 08:28:34 +00002528 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
2529 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
2530 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
2531
Bodo Möller1064aca2002-04-17 09:31:34 +00002532 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
2533 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2534
Lutz Jänicke2940a122002-04-15 09:55:40 +00002535 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
2536 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
2537 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
2538 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
2539 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
2540 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
2541 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2542
Bodo Möller82b0bf02002-04-13 22:47:20 +00002543 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
2544 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
2545 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
2546 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
2547 [Bodo Moeller]
2548
2549 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
2550 [Bodo Moeller]
2551
2552 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
2553 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
2554 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
2555 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
2556 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
2557 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
2558
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00002559 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
2560 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
2561 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
2562 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
2563 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
2564 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2565
2566 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
2567 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
2568 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
2569 BN_generate_prime().)
2570
2571 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
2572 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
2573 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
2574 better.
2575 [Bodo Moeller]
2576
2577 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
2578 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
2579 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2580
2581 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
2582 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
2583 when using non-blocking I/O.
2584 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
2585
2586 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
2587 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
2588
2589 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
2590 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
2591 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2592
2593 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
2594 configuration for the versions before that.
2595 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
2596
2597 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
2598 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
2599 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
2600 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
2601 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2602
2603 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
2604 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
2605 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
2606 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2607
2608 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
2609 value is 0.
2610 [Richard Levitte]
2611
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00002612 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
2613 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
2614 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2615
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00002616 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
2617 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
2618
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00002619 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
2620 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
2621 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
2622 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
2623 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
2624 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
2625 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
2626 session cache.
2627
2628 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
2629 using a local variable.
2630 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
2631
2632 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
2633 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
2634 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2635
2636 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
2637 [Richard Levitte]
2638
2639 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
2640 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
2641
2642 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
2643 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
2644 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
2645
2646 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
2647
2648 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
2649 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
2650 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
2651 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
2652 [Bodo Moeller]
2653
2654 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
2655 present.
2656 [Steve Henson]
2657
2658 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
2659 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
2660 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
2661 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
2662 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
2663
2664 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
2665 returns early because it has nothing to do.
2666 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
2667
2668 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2669 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
2670 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
2671
2672 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2673 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
2674 (Use engine 'keyclient')
2675 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
2676
2677 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
2678 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
2679 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
2680 modules).
2681 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
2682
2683 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2684 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
2685 from 0.9.7.
2686 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
2687
2688 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2689 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
2690 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
2691 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
2692
2693 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2694 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
2695 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
2696 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
2697
2698 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
2699 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
2700
2701 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
2702 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
2703 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
2704 [Bodo Moeller]
2705
2706 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
2707 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
2708 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
2709 become invalid.
2710 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
2711
2712 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
2713 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
2714 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
2715 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
2716 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
2717 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
2718 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
2719 [Bodo Moeller]
2720
2721 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
2722 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
2723 one of the SSL handshake functions.
2724 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
2725
2726 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
2727 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
2728 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
2729 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
2730 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
2731 the client will at least see that alert.
2732 [Bodo Moeller]
2733
2734 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
2735 correctly.
2736 [Bodo Moeller]
2737
2738 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
2739 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
2740 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
2741
2742 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
2743 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
2744 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
2745 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
2746 HelloRequest.
2747
2748 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
2749 before just sending a HelloRequest.
2750 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
2751
2752 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
2753 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
2754 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
2755 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
2756 may leak via logfiles.)
2757
2758 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
2759 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
2760 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
2761 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
2762 the legal range.
2763 [Bodo Moeller]
2764
2765 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
2766 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
2767 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2768
2769 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
2770 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
2771 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
2772 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
2773 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
2774 [Bodo Moeller]
2775
2776 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
2777 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
2778
2779 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
2780 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
2781 followed by modular reduction.
2782 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
2783
2784 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
2785 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
2786 [Bodo Moeller]
2787
2788 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
2789 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
2790 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
2791 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
2792 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2793
2794 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
2795 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2796
2797 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
2798 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
2799 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2800
2801 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
2802 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
2803 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
2804 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
2805 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
2806 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
2807 automatically.
2808 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
2809
2810 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
2811 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
2812 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
2813 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
2814 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
2815
2816 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
2817 [Andy Polyakov]
2818
2819 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
2820 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
2821 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
2822 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
2823 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
2824 to allow the necessary settings.
2825 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2826
2827 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
2828 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
2829 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
2830 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
2831 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2832
2833 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
2834 dh->length and always used
2835
2836 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
2837
2838 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
2839 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
2840 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
2841 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
2842 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
2843 dh->length.
2844
2845 So switch back to
2846
2847 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
2848
2849 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
2850 otherwise.
2851 [Bodo Moeller]
2852
2853 *) In
2854
2855 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
2856 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
2857 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
2858 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
2859
2860 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
2861 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
2862 always reject numbers >= n.
2863 [Bodo Moeller]
2864
2865 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
2866 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
2867 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
2868 variable) is not atomic.
2869 [Bodo Moeller]
2870
2871 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
2872 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
2873 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
2874 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
2875
2876 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
2877 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
2878
2879 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
2880 little-endian MIPS.
2881 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
2882
2883 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
2884 [Richard Levitte]
2885
2886 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
2887
2888 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
2889 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
2890 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
2891 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
2892 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
2893 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
2894 to traverse all of 'state'.
2895
2896 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
2897 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
2898 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
2899
2900 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
2901 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
2902
2903 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
2904 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
2905 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
2906 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
2907 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
2908 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
2909 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
2910 further strengthens the PRNG.
2911 [Bodo Moeller]
2912
2913 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
2914 [Andy Polyakov]
2915
2916 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
2917 an error message in this case.
2918 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2919
2920 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
2921 [Steve Henson]
2922
2923 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
2924 positive and less than q.
2925 [Bodo Moeller]
2926
2927 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
2928 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
2929 that itself.
2930 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
2931
2932 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
2933 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
2934 [Bodo Moeller]
2935
2936 *) Fix OAEP check.
2937 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
2938
2939 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
2940 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
2941 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
2942 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
2943 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
2944 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
2945 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
2946 paper.)
2947
2948 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
2949 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
2950 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
2951 detect the supposedly ignored error.
2952
2953 Both problems are now fixed.
2954 [Bodo Moeller]
2955
2956 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
2957 (previously it was 1024).
2958 [Bodo Moeller]
2959
2960 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
2961 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
2962 [Steve Henson]
2963
2964 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
2965 [Steve Henson]
2966
2967 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
2968 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
2969 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
2970 [Steve Henson]
2971
2972 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
2973 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
2974 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
2975 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
2976 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
2977 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
2978 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
2979 environment variables.
2980
2981 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
2982 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
2983 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
2984 [Bodo Moeller]
2985
2986 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
2987 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
2988 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
2989 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
2990 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
2991 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
2992 [Bodo Moeller]
2993
2994 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
2995 versions of 'test'.
2996 [Bodo Moeller]
2997
2998 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
2999
3000 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
3001 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
3002
3003 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
3004 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
3005 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
3006 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
3007 CygWin.
3008 [Richard Levitte]
3009
3010 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
3011 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
3012 amount of data available.
3013 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
3014 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3015
3016 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
3017 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
3018 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
3019 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
3020 [Bodo Moeller]
3021
3022 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
3023 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
3024 and UnixWare.
3025 [Richard Levitte]
3026
3027 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
3028 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
3029 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
3030 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
3031 [Ulf Moeller]
3032
3033 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
3034 [Andy Polyakov]
3035
3036 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
3037 [Richard Levitte]
3038
3039 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
3040 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
3041 [Steve Henson]
3042 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3043
3044 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
3045 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
3046 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
3047 (but broken) behaviour.
3048 [Steve Henson]
3049
3050 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
3051 it when found.
3052 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
3053
3054 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
3055 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
3056 [Bodo Moeller]
3057
3058 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
3059 did not exist.
3060 [Bodo Moeller]
3061
3062 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
3063 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
3064
3065 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
3066 [Richard Levitte]
3067
3068 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
3069 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
3070 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
3071
3072 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
3073 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
3074 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
3075 [Steve Henson]
3076
3077 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
3078 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
3079 [Ulf Moeller]
3080
3081 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
3082 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
3083
3084 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
3085
3086 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
3087
3088 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
3089 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
3090 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
3091 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
3092 [Bodo Moeller]
3093
3094 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
3095 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3096
3097 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
3098 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
3099 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
3100
3101 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
3102 was empty.
3103 [Steve Henson]
3104 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3105
3106 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
3107 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
3108 but the code is actually correct.
3109 [Steve Henson]
3110
3111 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
3112 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
3113 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
3114 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
3115 and leaves the highest bit random.
3116 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
3117
3118 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
3119 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
3120 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
3121 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
3122 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
3123 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
3124 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
3125 [Bodo Moeller]
3126
3127 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
3128 [Ulf Moeller]
3129
3130 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
3131 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
3132 [Steve Henson]
3133
3134 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
3135 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
3136 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
3137 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
3138 headers.
3139 [Richard Levitte]
3140
3141 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
3142 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
3143 and break the signature.
3144 [Steve Henson]
3145 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3146
3147 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
3148 DH ciphersuites.
3149 [Steve Henson]
3150
3151 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
3152 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
3153 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
3154 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
3155 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
3156 [Bodo Moeller]
3157
3158 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
3159 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
3160
3161 *) ./config script fixes.
3162 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
3163
3164 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
3165 [Bodo Moeller]
3166
3167 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
3168 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
3169 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
3170 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
3171 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
3172
3173 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
3174 call failed, free the DSA structure.
3175 [Bodo Moeller]
3176
3177 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
3178 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
3179 [Steve Henson]
3180
3181 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
3182 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
3183 when writing a 32767 byte record.
3184 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
3185
3186 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
3187 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
3188
3189 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
3190 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
3191 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
3192 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
3193 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
3194
3195 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
3196 [Bodo Moeller]
3197
3198 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
3199 [Ulf Möller]
3200
3201 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
3202 [Ulf Möller]
3203
3204 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
3205 [Bodo Moeller]
3206
3207 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
3208 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
3209 [Bodo Moeller]
3210
3211 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
3212 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
3213 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
3214 result of the server certificate verification.)
3215 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3216
3217 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
3218 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
3219 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
3220 [Bodo Moeller]
3221
3222 *) Fix SSL_peek:
3223 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
3224 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
3225 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
3226 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
3227 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
3228 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
3229 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
3230 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
3231 [Bodo Moeller]
3232
3233 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
3234 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
3235 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
3236 happening the other way round.
3237 [Geoff Thorpe]
3238
3239 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
3240 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
3241 [Bodo Moeller]
3242
3243 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
3244 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
3245 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
3246 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
3247 [Richard Levitte]
3248
3249 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
3250 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
3251
3252 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
3253
3254 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
3255 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
3256 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
3257 that.
3258
3259 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
3260
3261 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
3262
3263 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
3264 static ones.
3265 [Richard Levitte]
3266
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00003267 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
3268
3269 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
3270 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
3271 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
3272 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
3273 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
3274
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00003275 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
3276 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
3277 matter what.
3278 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00003279
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00003280 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
3281 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3282
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00003283 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00003284
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00003285 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
3286 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
3287 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
3288 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
3289 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00003290 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00003291 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
3292 by the Finished messages.
3293 [Bodo Moeller]
3294
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00003295 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
3296 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
3297
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00003298 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
3299 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
3300 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
3301 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
3302 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
3303 appropriately.
3304 [Steve Henson]
3305
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00003306 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
3307 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
3308 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
3309 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
3310 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
3311 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
3312 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
3313 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
3314 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
3315 together.
3316 [Steve Henson]
3317
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00003318 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
3319 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
3320 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
3321 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
3322
3323 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
3324 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
3325 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
3326 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
3327 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
3328 the answer.
3329
3330 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
3331 been tested well enough.
3332 [Richard Levitte]
3333
Bodo Möllerfe035192000-09-19 23:25:00 +00003334 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00003335 it can return incorrect results.
Bodo Möllercb1fbf82000-09-19 23:06:14 +00003336 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
3337 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00003338 [Bodo Moeller]
3339
Dr. Stephen Henson730e37e2000-09-18 12:30:57 +00003340 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
3341 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
3342 include zero length content when signing messages.
3343 [Steve Henson]
3344
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00003345 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
3346 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00003347 [Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00003348
Richard Levitte0e05f542000-09-15 21:22:50 +00003349 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
3350 [Richard Levitte]
3351
Ulf Möller1d84fd62000-09-14 18:37:53 +00003352 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
3353 wrong sign.
3354 [Ulf Möller]
3355
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00003356 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
3357 packages. The default package contains applications, application
3358 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
3359 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
3360 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
3361 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
3362 [Richard Levitte]
3363
Richard Levittecc995262000-09-14 13:11:56 +00003364 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
3365 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
3366
Richard Levitte72660f52000-09-14 12:48:48 +00003367 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
3368 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
3369
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00003370 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
3371 random number < q in the DSA library.
Ulf Möller523d7782000-09-13 02:01:35 +00003372 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00003373
Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00003374 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
3375 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
3376 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
3377 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
3378 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
3379 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
3380 just makes things more complicated.)
3381 [Bodo Moeller]
3382
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00003383 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
3384 from EGD.
3385 [Ben Laurie]
3386
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +00003387 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
3388 work better on such systems.
3389 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
3390
Dr. Stephen Henson84b65342000-09-07 23:14:26 +00003391 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
3392 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
3393 keyid to the certificates aux info.
3394 [Steve Henson]
3395
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +00003396 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
3397 if there was more than one signature.
3398 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
3399
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +00003400 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
3401 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
3402 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
3403 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
3404 [Richard Levitte]
3405
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003406 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
3407 rather than always using the current time.
3408 [Steve Henson]
3409
3410 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
3411 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
3412 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
3413 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
3414 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
3415 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003416
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003417 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
3418 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003419
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003420 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003421
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003422 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
3423 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
3424 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
3425 the same hash value.
3426
3427 As a result various functions (which were all internal
3428 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
3429 structure. This will break anything that messed round
3430 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003431
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003432 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
3433 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003434
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003435 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
3436 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
3437 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
3438 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
3439 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
3440 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
3441 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003442
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003443 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
3444
3445 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
3446 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
3447 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
3448 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
3449 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
3450 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
3451 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
3452 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
3453
3454 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
3455 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3456
3457 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
3458 to customise the verify behaviour.
3459 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003460
Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00003461 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
3462 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
3463 [Steve Henson]
3464
3465 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
3466 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
3467 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
3468 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
3469 request is improperly encoded.
3470 [Steve Henson]
3471
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00003472 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
3473 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
3474 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00003475
3476 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.

3478
Bodo Möllerbbb8de02000-09-04 15:34:43 +00003479 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
3480 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
3481 words set to zero.)
3482 [Bodo Moeller]
3483
3484 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
3485 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
3486 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
3487 [Bodo Moeller]
3488
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +00003489 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
3490 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
3491 BIO/fp routines also added.
3492 [Steve Henson]
3493
Bodo Möllera545c6f2000-09-01 09:54:25 +00003494 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.

3496
Ben Laurie7049ef52000-08-30 18:14:28 +00003497 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
3498 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
3499 demos/state_machine.
3500 [Ben Laurie]
3501
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00003502 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
3503 generation and verification.
3504 [Steve Henson]
3505
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00003506 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
3507 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
3508 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
3509 encode and decode it manually.
3510 [Steve Henson]
3511
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00003512 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
Dr. Stephen Henson469938c2000-08-22 12:54:21 +00003513 compile under VC++.
3514 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
3515
3516 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
3517 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
3518 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
3519 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
3520
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00003521 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
3522 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
3523 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
3524 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
3525 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
3526 [Steve Henson]
3527
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00003528 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
3529 [Richard Levitte]
3530
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00003531 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
3532 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
3533 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
3534
3535 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
3536 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
3537 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
3538 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
3539 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
3540 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
3541 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
3542 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
3543
3544 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
3545 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
3546
3547 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
3548
3549 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
3550 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
3551 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
3552
3553 [Richard Levitte]
3554
Richard Levitte368f8552000-08-17 10:25:46 +00003555 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
3556 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
3557 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
3558 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
3559 [Richard Levitte]
3560
Richard Levitte30094582000-08-14 14:05:53 +00003561 *) MD4 implemented.

Richard Levitte30094582000-08-14 14:05:53 +00003563
Richard Levitte88364bc2000-08-11 19:43:20 +00003564 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
3565 [Richard Levitte]
3566
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00003567 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
3568 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
3569 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
3570 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
3571 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
3572 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
3573 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
3574 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
3575 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
3576 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
3577 short or long names are found.
3578 [Steve Henson]
3579
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00003580 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00003581 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00003582
Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00003583 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
3584 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
3585 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
3586 version rollback attacks was not effective.
3587
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00003588 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
3589 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
3590 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
3591 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
3592 [Bodo Moeller]
3593
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00003594 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
3595 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
3596 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
3597 [Richard Levitte]
3598
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00003599 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
3600 these print out strings and name structures based on various
3601 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
3602 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
3603 to allow the various flags to be set.
3604 [Steve Henson]
3605
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00003606 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
3607 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
3608 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
3609 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
3610 dates to be checked.
3611 [Steve Henson]
3612
3613 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
3614 negative public key encodings) on by default,
3615 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
3616 [Steve Henson]
3617
3618 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
3619 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
3620 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
3621 [Steve Henson]
3622
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +00003623 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
3624 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
3625 [Bodo Moeller]
3626
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +00003627 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
3628 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
3629 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
3630 are always statically linked for now, but there are
3631 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
Richard Levitte6bc847e2001-08-10 15:26:21 +00003632 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.

3634
Ulf Möllerc0722722000-07-19 21:35:35 +00003635 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
3636 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
3637 Random Numbers.
3638 [Ulf Möller]
3639
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd13f0e2000-07-12 23:55:30 +00003640 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
3641 DSA key.
3642 [Steve Henson]
3643
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00003644 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
3645 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
3646 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
3647 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
3648 form signing output easier to verify.
3649 [Steve Henson]
3650
3651 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
3652 [Steve Henson]
3653
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00003654 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
3655 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
3656 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
3657 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
3658 are needed because all other string types have virtually
3659 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
3660 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
3661 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
3662 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
3663 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
3664 [Steve Henson]
3665
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00003666 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
3667
3668 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
3669 the syntax given in objects.README.
3670 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
3671 obj_mac.h.
3672 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
3673 obj_mac.h.
3674
3675 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
3676 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
3677 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
3678 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
3679 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
3680 consistent name changes.
3681 [Richard Levitte]
3682
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00003683 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
3684 [Bodo Moeller]
3685
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00003686 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00003687 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
3688 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
3689 environment variable, or the default random state file.

3691
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00003692 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
3693 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
3694 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
3695 of safestack.h .
3696 [Steve Henson]
3697
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00003698 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
3699 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
3700 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
3701 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
3702 [Steve Henson]
3703
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00003704 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
3705 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
3706 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
3707 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
3708 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
3709 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
3710 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
3711 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see

3716
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00003717 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
3718 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
3719 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
3720 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
3721 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
3722 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
3723 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
3724 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
3725 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
3726 algorithm to openssl-dev.
3727 [Steve Henson]
3728
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00003729 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
3730 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
3731 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
3732 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
3733
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00003734 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
3735 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
3736 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
3737 omit any duplicate addresses.
3738 [Steve Henson]
3739
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00003740 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
3741 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
3742 [Bodo Moeller]
3743
3744 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
3745 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
3746 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
3747 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
3748 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
3749 [Bodo Moeller]
3750
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00003751 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
3752 software:
3753 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
3754 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
3755 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc

3757 [Richard Levitte]
3758
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00003759 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
3760 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).

3765
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00003766 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
3767 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
3768 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
3769 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
3770 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
3771 approach.
3772 [Geoff Thorpe]
3773
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00003774 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
3775 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
3776 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
3777 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
3778 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
3779 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
3780 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
3781 [Geoff Thorpe]
3782
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00003783 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
3784 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
3785 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
3786 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
3787 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
3788 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
3789 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
3790 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
3791 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
3792 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
3793 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
3794 [Bodo Moeller]
3795
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00003796 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
3797 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
3798 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
3799 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
3800 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
3801
3802 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
3803 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
3804 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
3805 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
3806 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
3807
3808 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
3809 ciphers.
3810
3811 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00003812 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
3813 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
3814 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
3815
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00003816 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
3817
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00003818 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
3819 of macros.
3820
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00003821 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
3822 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
3823 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
3824 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00003825
3826 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
3827 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
3828 any installed hardware versions can.
Dr. Stephen Henson7f060602000-05-26 23:51:35 +00003829 [Steve Henson]
3830
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00003831 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
3832 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
3833 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
3834 number.
3835 [Bodo Moeller]
3836
3837 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
3838 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
3839 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
3840 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
3841 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
3842
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4b41f42000-05-24 13:09:59 +00003843 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
3844 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
3845 [Steve Henson]
3846
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00003847 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
3848 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
3849 [Richard Levitte]
3850
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00003851 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
3852 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
3853 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
3854 features.
3855 [Steve Henson]
3856
Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00003857 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.

Dr. Stephen Henson0cb957a2000-05-04 23:03:49 +00003860 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
3861 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
3862 but no ssl client purpose.
3863 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
3864
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00003865 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
3866 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
3867 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
3868 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
3869 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
3870 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
3871 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
3872 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
3873 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
3874 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
3875 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
3876 [Steve Henson]
3877
Bodo Möller316e6a62000-05-02 20:29:03 +00003878 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use

3880 be obtained from the error queue.
3881 [Bodo Moeller]
3882
Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00003883 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
3884 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
3885 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
3886 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).

3890 [Ulf Möller]
3891
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00003892 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
3893 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
3894 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
3895 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
3896 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
3897 [Geoff Thorpe]
3898
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00003899 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
3900 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
3901 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
3902 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
3903 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
3904 [Geoff Thorpe]
3905
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00003906 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
3907 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
3908 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
3909 may not be NULL.

3911
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00003912 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
3913 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
3914 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
3915 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
3916 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
3917 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
3918 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
3919 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
3920 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
3921 or "the configuration storage API"...
3922
3923 The new configuration file reading functions are:

Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00003930 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00003931
3932 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
3933 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
3934 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
3935 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
3936 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
3937 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
3938 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
3939
3940 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
3941 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
3942 [Richard Levitte]
3943
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00003944 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
3945 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
3946 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional

3949
Geoff Thorpe6ef4d9d2000-04-04 22:49:27 +00003950 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and

Bodo Möllercf194c12000-03-30 08:12:35 +00003959 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
3960 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
3961
Bodo Möller3bc90f22000-03-27 18:10:08 +00003962 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,

3970
Dr. Stephen Hensone77066e2000-03-22 13:50:23 +00003971 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
3972 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
3973 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
3974 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key

3985
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00003986 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
3987 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00003988 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00003989 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00003990 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
3991 Additional arguments are always ignored.

4001 [Bodo Moeller]
4002
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00004003 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
4004 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
4005 its own key.
4006 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
4007 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
4008 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
4009 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
4010 [Bodo Moeller]
4011
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00004012 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
4013 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
4014 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
4015 does not suppress any output.
4016 [Richard Levitte]
4017
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00004018 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00004019 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
4020 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
4021 with all the associated security issues.
4022
4023 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
4024 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
4025 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
4026 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
4027 use the value in the default purpose.

4033
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00004034 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
4035 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
4036 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in

4045
Bodo Möller41918452000-03-03 22:18:19 +00004046 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
4047 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
4048 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
4049 [Bodo Moeller]
4050
4051 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
4052 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
4053 [Bodo Moeller]
4054
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00004055 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
4056 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
4057 which was free.
4058 [Steve Henson]
4059
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00004060 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
4061 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
4062 [Bodo Moeller]
4063
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00004064 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
4065 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
4066 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
4067 [Bodo Moeller]
4068
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00004069 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random

Richard Levitte74cdf6f2000-02-28 11:59:02 +00004088 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00004089
Dr. Stephen Henson82b93182000-02-28 14:11:19 +00004090 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
4091 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
4092 [Steve Henson]
4093
Dr. Stephen Henson587bb0e2000-02-27 17:34:30 +00004094 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
4095 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
4096
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00004097 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
Andy Polyakova5770be2000-02-27 02:34:37 +00004098 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00004099 [Ulf Möller]
4100
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00004101 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
4102 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
4103 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
4104 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
4105 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
4106 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
4107
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00004108 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
4109 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
4110 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
4111 for example.
4112 [Steve Henson]
4113
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00004114 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
4115 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
4116 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
4117 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
4118 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
4119 counter, some don't.)
4120 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
4121 counters or duplicate objects.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc7cb16a2000-02-26 01:55:33 +00004122 [Steve Henson]
4123
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00004124 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
4125 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
4126 [Steve Henson]
4127
Ulf Möller505b5a02000-02-24 22:57:42 +00004128 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
4129 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
4130 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
4131
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00004132 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
4133 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
4134 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
4135 or -rand.
4136 [Ulf Möller]
4137
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00004138 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
4139 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
4140 [Steve Henson]
4141
4142 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
4143 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
4144 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
4145 cipher list.
4146 [Steve Henson]
4147
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00004148 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
4149 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
4150 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
4151 [Steve Henson]
4152
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00004153 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
4154 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
4155 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
4156 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
4157 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
4158 should work without changes.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00004159 [Richard Levitte]
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00004160
4161 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
4162 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
4163 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
4164 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
4165 must be defined. E.g.,
4166 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
4167 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
4168 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00004169 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]

Bodo Möllerb35e9052000-02-20 23:04:06 +00004171 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
4172 record layer.
4173 [Bodo Moeller]
4174
Dr. Stephen Hensond754b382000-02-20 18:27:23 +00004175 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
4176 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
4177 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
4178 [Steve Henson]
4179
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00004180 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
4181 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
4182 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
4183 request header lines. Some software needs this.
4184 [Steve Henson]
4185
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00004186 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
4187 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
4188 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
4189 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
4190 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
4191 is prompted for as usual.
4192 [Steve Henson]
4193
Ben Lauriebd03b992000-02-16 22:15:39 +00004194 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
4195 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
4196 autodetect the card and use it if present.
4197 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
4198
Dr. Stephen Hensonde469ef2000-02-15 14:19:44 +00004199 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
4200 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
4201 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
4202 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
4203 [Steve Henson]
4204
Andy Polyakovbcba6cc2000-02-12 23:33:01 +00004205 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
4206 [Andy Polyakov]
4207
Dr. Stephen Hensond13e4eb2000-02-12 03:03:04 +00004208 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
4209 of seed file.
4210 [Steve Henson]
4211
Bodo Möller3ebf0be2000-02-11 17:18:50 +00004212 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
Bodo Möllerbb325c72000-02-10 21:50:52 +00004213 [Bodo Moeller]
4214
Dr. Stephen Hensonf07fb9b2000-02-08 01:34:59 +00004215 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
4216 [Steve Henson]
4217
Ulf Möllercae55bf2000-02-06 15:56:59 +00004218 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
4219 bits.
4220 [Ulf Möller]
4221
4222 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
4223 [Ulf Möller]
4224
Andy Polyakov0fad6cb2000-02-06 11:15:20 +00004225 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
4226 [Andy Polyakov]
4227
Ulf Möller4a6222d2000-02-06 00:25:39 +00004228 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
4229 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
4230 [Ulf Möller]
4231
Dr. Stephen Henson66430202000-02-05 21:07:56 +00004232 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
4233 options to produce them.
4234 [Steve Henson]
4235
Ulf Möller9b141122000-02-05 14:17:32 +00004236 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
4237 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
4238 [Ulf Möller]
4239
4240 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
4241 for p == 0.
4242 [Ulf Möller]
4243
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00004244 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
4245 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
4246 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
4247 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
4248 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
4249 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
4250 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
4251 [Steve Henson]
4252
Dr. Stephen Henson82fc1d92000-02-03 02:56:48 +00004253 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
4254 [Steve Henson]
4255
Bodo Möllere74231e2000-02-02 21:20:44 +00004256 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
4257 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
4258 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
4259 [Bodo Moeller]
4260
Bodo Möller2c5fe5b2000-02-01 07:50:42 +00004261 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.

4263
Ulf Möller98d0b2e2000-01-30 23:34:33 +00004264 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
4265 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
4266 [Ulf Möller]
4267
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004268 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
4269 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
4270 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
4271 has already seen).
4272 [Bodo Moeller]
4273
4274 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
4275 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
4276
4277 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
4278 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
4279 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
4280 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
4281 generation becomes much faster.
4282
4283 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00004284 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
4285 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
4286 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
4287 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
4288 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
4289 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
4290 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
4291 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
4292 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004293 [Bodo Moeller]
4294
Bodo Möller7865b872000-01-30 02:40:38 +00004295 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004296 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
4297 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
4298 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00004299 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
4300 trial division stage.

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00004356 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
4357 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
4358 wrong.
4359
4360 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
4361 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
4362 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
4363
4364 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
4365 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
4366 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
4367 an error is flagged.
4368
4369 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
4370 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
4371 the readability was also increased :-)

Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00004385 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
4386 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
4387 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
4388 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
4389 instead.
4390
4391 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
4392 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
4393 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
4394 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00004395 because they handle more complex structures.)

4397
Ulf Mölleraa82db42000-01-16 21:10:00 +00004398 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
4399 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
4400 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
4401 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
4402
Ulf Möllereb952082000-01-13 20:59:17 +00004403 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00004404 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
4405 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00004406 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00004407 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
4408 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
4409 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).

4411
Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00004412 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
4413 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004414 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00004415 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004416 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00004417 [Bodo Moeller]
4418
Bodo Möller3cc6cde2000-01-11 08:09:27 +00004419 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
Bodo Möllerc51ae172000-01-11 01:07:26 +00004420 [Bodo Moeller]
4421
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00004422 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
4423 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00004424 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
4425 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
4426 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
4427 to use this.
4428
4429 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
4430 code.
4431 [Steve Henson]
4432
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00004433 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
4434 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
4435 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
4436 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
4437 [Steve Henson]
4438
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004439 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
4440 [Ulf Möller]
4441
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00004442 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
4443 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
4444 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
4445 international characters are used.
4446
4447 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
4448 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
4449 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
4450 in ASN1 order.
4451 [Steve Henson]
4452
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00004453 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
4454 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
4455 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
4456 request.
4457
4458 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
4459 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
4460 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
4461 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004462 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00004463 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
4464
4465 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
4466 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
4467 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004468 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00004469
4470 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
4471 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
4472 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
4473 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
4474 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
4475 types at all.
4476 [Steve Henson]
4477
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00004478 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
4479 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
4480 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
4481 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
4482 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
4483
4484 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
4485 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
4486 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
4487 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
Bodo Möllerf2d9a322000-01-06 00:24:24 +00004488 [Bodo Moeller]
4489
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00004490 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
4491 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004492 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00004493 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
4494 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
4495 SHA1.
4496 [Andy Polyakov]
4497
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00004498 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
4499 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
4500 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
4501 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
4502 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
4503 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
4504 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
4505 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
4506
4507 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
4508 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00004509 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00004510 [Steve Henson]
4511
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00004512 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
4513 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
4514 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
4515 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
4516 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
4517 support to pkcs8 application.
4518 [Steve Henson]
4519
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00004520 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
4521 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
4522 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
4523 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
4524 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
4525 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
4526 [Bodo Moeller]
4527
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00004528 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
4529 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
4530 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
4531 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
4532 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
4533 consistency.
4534 [Bodo Moeller]
4535
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00004536 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
4537 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
4538 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
4539 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
4540 example.
4541 [Steve Henson]
4542
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00004543 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
4544 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
4545 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
4546 and any application specific purposes.
4547
4548 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
4549 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
4550 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
4551 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00004552 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00004553 if the certificate is self signed.
4554 [Steve Henson]
4555
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00004556 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
4557 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
4558 [Steve Henson]
4559
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00004560 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
4561 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00004562 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00004563 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
4564 [Steve Henson]
4565
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00004566 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
4567 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
4568 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
4569 Update documentation.
4570 [Steve Henson]
4571
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00004572 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
4573 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004574 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00004575 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
4576 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
4577 [Steve Henson]
4578
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00004579 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
4580 for details.
4581 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
4582
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00004583 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
4584 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
4585 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00004586 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
4587 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
4588 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00004589 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
4590 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
4591 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
4592 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00004593
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00004594 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
4595
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00004596 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
4597 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
4598 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
4599 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
4600 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00004601
4602 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
4603 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00004604 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
4605 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
4606 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
4607 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
4608 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
4609 request additional information:
4610 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
4611 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00004612
4613 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
4614 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
4615 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
4616 options.
4617
4618 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
4619 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
4620
4621 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
4622 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
4623 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
4624
4625 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.

Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00004627
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00004628 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
4629 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
4630 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
4631 algorithm.
4632 [Steve Henson]
4633
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00004634 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
4635 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
4636 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
4637
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00004638 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
4639 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
4640 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
4641 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
4642 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
4643 included in OpenSSL.
4644 [Steve Henson]
4645
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00004646 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
4647 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
4648 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
4649 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
4650 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
4651 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
4652 [Bodo Moeller]
4653
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00004654 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
4655 PKCS12 structure.
4656 [Steve Henson]
4657
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00004658 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
4659 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
4660 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
4661 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
4662 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
4663 structure.
4664 [Steve Henson]
4665
4666 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
4667 need initialising.
4668 [Steve Henson]
4669
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00004670 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
4671 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
4672 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
4673 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
4674 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
4675 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
4676 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
4677 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
4678 be maintained manually.
4679
4680 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
4681 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
4682 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
4683 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
4684 work because people forget to call this function]
4685 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
4686 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
4687 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
4688 [Steve Henson]
4689
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00004690 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
4691 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
4692 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
4693 should be discouraged from doing it.
4694 [Ben Laurie]
4695
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00004696 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
4697 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
4698 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
4699 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
4700 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
4701 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
4702 [Steve Henson]
4703
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00004704 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
4705 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
4706 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00004707
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00004708 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00004709 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
4710 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00004711
4712 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
4713 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
4714 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
4715 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
4716 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
4717 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00004718
4719 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
4720 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
4721 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00004722
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00004723 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
4724 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
4725 and vice versa.
4726
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00004727 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
4728 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
4729 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
4730 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.

4732
4733 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00004734 [Steve Henson]
4735
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00004736 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
4737 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
4738 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
4739 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
4740 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004741 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00004742 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
4743 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
4744 keys so we should be OK.
4745
4746 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
4747 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
4748 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
4749 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
4750 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
4751 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004752 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00004753
4754 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
4755 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
4756 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
4757
4758 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00004759 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
4760 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
4761 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
4762 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
4763 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
4764 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00004765 [Steve Henson]
4766
4767 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
4768 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
4769 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
4770 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
4771 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
4772 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
4773 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
4774 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
4775 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
4776 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
4777 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
4778 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
4779 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
4780 [Steve Henson]
4781
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00004782 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
4783 [Steve Henson]
4784
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00004785 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
4786 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
4787 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
4788 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
4789 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
4790 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
4791 single self signed certificate. This means that:
4792 openssl verify ss.pem
4793 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
4794 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
4795 is OK.
4796 [Steve Henson]
4797
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00004798 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
4799 (and add it to external session representation).
4800 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
4801 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
4802 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
4803 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
4804 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
4805 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
4806 security holes.

4808
Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00004809 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
4810 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
4811 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.

Dr. Stephen Hensonfd699ac1999-11-16 02:49:25 +00004814 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
4815 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
4816 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
4817 [Steve Henson]
4818
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00004819 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
4820 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
4821 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
4822 code.
4823 [Steve Henson]
4824
Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00004825 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
4826 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.

4828
Dr. Stephen Henson06556a11999-11-14 23:10:50 +00004829 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
4830 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
4831 certificate auxiliary information.
4832 [Steve Henson]
4833
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00004834 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
4835 the 'enc' command.
4836 [Steve Henson]
4837
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00004838 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
4839 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00004840 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
4841 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
4842 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
4843 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
4844 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.

4846
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00004847 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
Dr. Stephen Henson954ef7e1999-11-12 01:42:25 +00004848 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
4849 [Steve Henson]
4850
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00004851 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
4852 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
4853 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
4854 manpages and fix a few bugs.
4855 [Steve Henson]
4856
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00004857 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
4858 [Steve Henson]
4859
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00004860 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
4861 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
4862 [Steve Henson]
4863
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00004864 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
4865 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
4866 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
4867 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
4868 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004869 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00004870 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
4871 using the new 'x509' options.
4872
4873 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
4874 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
4875 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
4876 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
4877 for all purposes.
4878 [Steve Henson]
4879
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00004880 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
4881 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
4882 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
4883 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
4884 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
Mark J. Coxce2c95b1999-11-03 14:10:10 +00004885 [Mark Cox]
4886
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00004887 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
4888 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
4889 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
4890 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
4891 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004892 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00004893 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
4894 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
4895 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
4896 the key length and effective key length are equal.
4897 [Steve Henson]
4898
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00004899 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
4900 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
4901 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
4902 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
4903 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
4904 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
4905 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
4906 [Steve Henson]
4907
4908 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
4909 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
4910 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
4911 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
4912 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
4913 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
4914 openssl.cnf for more info.
4915 [Steve Henson]
4916
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00004917 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00004918 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00004919 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
4920 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
4921 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
4922 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
4923 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
4924 md should be large enough anyway.
4925 [Bodo Moeller]
4926
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004927 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
4928 for handling the random seed file.
4929
4930 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
4931 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004932 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004933 s_client,
4934 s_server,
4935 x509 (when signing).
4936 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
4937 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00004938 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004939
4940 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004941 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004942 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004943 that support '-rand'.

4945
4946 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
4947 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
4948 [Bodo Moeller]
4949
4950 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
4951 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
4952 [Bill Perry]
4953
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00004954 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
4955 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
4956 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
4957 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
4958 is suitable.
4959 [Steve Henson]
4960
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00004961 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
4962 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
4963 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
4964 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
4965 [Steve Henson]
4966
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00004967 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
4968 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
4969 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
4970 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
4971 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
4972 print out all the purposes.
4973 [Steve Henson]
4974
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00004975 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated

4977 [Steve Henson]
4978
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00004979 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
4980 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
4981 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
4982 single function call.

4984
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00004985 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC

4987 [Andy Polyakov]
4988
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00004989 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced

4991 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
4992 [Steve Henson]
4993
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00004994 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer

4997
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00004998 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
4999 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
5000 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
5001 "server.pem".
5002 [Steve Henson]
5003
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00005004 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
5005 a public key to be input or output. For example:
5006 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
5007 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
5008 [Steve Henson]
5009
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00005010 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained

5012 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
5013 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
5014
5015 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
5016 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems

5019
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00005020 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
5021 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
5022 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
5023 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
5024 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
5025 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
5026 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
5027 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
5028 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
5029 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
5030 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
5031 trivial: move one line.

Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00005034 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
5035 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
5036 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
5037 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
5038 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
5039 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
5040 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
5041 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
5042 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
5043 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
5044 with an event loop for example.
5045 [Steve Henson]
5046
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00005047 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
5048 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
5049 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
5050 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
5051 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
5052 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
5053 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
5054 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
5055 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
5056 [Steve Henson]
5057
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00005058 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
5059 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
5060 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00005061 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00005062 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
5063 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
5064 [Steve Henson]
5065
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00005066 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
5067 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
5068 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
5069 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
5070
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00005071 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
5072 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
5073 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
5074 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
5075 key generation.

5077
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00005078 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
Bodo Möller6f7af151999-09-10 14:03:21 +00005079 (still largely untested)

5081
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00005082 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
5083 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
5084 [Steve Henson]
5085
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00005086 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
5087 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
5088 [Steve Henson]
5089
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00005090 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
5091 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
5092 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
5093 [Bodo Moeller]
5094
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00005095 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
5096 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
5097 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
5098 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
5099 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
5100 [Steve Henson]
5101
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00005102 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
5103 [Andy Polyakov]
5104
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00005105 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
5106 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
5107 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
5108 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
5109 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
5110 in ca.
5111 [Steve Henson]
5112
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00005113 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
5114 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
5115 1.OU="Unit name 1"
5116 2.OU="Unit name 2"
5117 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
5118 [Steve Henson]
5119
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00005120 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
5121 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
5122 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
5123 are otherwise ignored at present.
5124 [Steve Henson]
5125
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00005126 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00005127 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00005128 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
5129 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
5130 copied until the next read.
5131 [Steve Henson]
5132
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00005133 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
5134 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
5135 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
5136 [Steve Henson]
5137
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00005138 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
5139 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
5140 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
5141 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
5142 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
5143 associated functions.
5144 [Steve Henson]
5145
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00005146 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
5147 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
5148 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
5149 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
5150 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
5151 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
5152 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
5153 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
5154 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00005155 memory BIOs.

5157
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00005158 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
5159 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
5160 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
5161 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
5162 [Bodo Moeller]
5163
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00005164 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
5165 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
5166 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
5167 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
5168 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
5169 functionality.
5170 [Steve Henson]
5171
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00005172 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
5173 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
5174 under Win32.
5175 [Steve Henson]
5176
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00005177 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00005178 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
5179 extensions to be obtained and added.

5193
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00005194 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
5195 program.
5196 [Steve Henson]
5197
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00005198 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
5199 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
5200 DH parameters contain its length).
5201
5202 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
5203 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
5204 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
5205 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
5206 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
5207 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
5208 utter importance to use
5209 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
5210 or
5211 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
5212 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
5213 attacks may become possible!
5214 [Bodo Moeller]
5215
5216 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
5217 [Bodo Moeller]
5218
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00005219 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
5220 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
5221 [Steve Henson]
5222
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00005223 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
5224 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
5225 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
5226 or long name.
5227 [Steve Henson]
5228
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00005229 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
5230 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
5231 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
5232 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00005233 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
5234 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
5235 private key operations.

5237

5239 [Andy Polyakov]
5240
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00005241 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
5242 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
5243 to
5244 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
5245 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
5246 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
5247 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
5248 the password callback is called.
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00005249 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00005250
5251 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
5252
5253 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
5254 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
5255 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
5256 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
5257 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
5258 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
5259 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00005260
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00005261 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
5262 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
5263 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00005264 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
Bodo Möller57119941999-07-29 12:57:23 +00005265 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl

5274 [Ulf Möller]
5275
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00005276 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
5277 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
5278 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
5279 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
5280 [Steve Henson]
5281
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00005282 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
5283 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
5284 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
5285 of an error.
5286 [Bodo Moeller]
5287
Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00005288 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check

5290 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
5291
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00005292 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
5293 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
5294 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
5295 comparison" warnings.
5296 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.

5306
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00005307 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
5308 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
5309
5310 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
5311 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
5312 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
5313
5314 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
5315 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
5316 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
5317 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
5318 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
5319 this bug.

5321
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00005322 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
5323 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00005324 Applications can use
5325 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
5326 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
5327 "off" is now the default.
5328 The library internally uses
5329 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
5330 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
5331 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
5332
5333 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
5334 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00005335
5336 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
5337 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
5338 than just having a counter.

Bodo Möller4b49bf62001-05-10 09:33:18 +00005359 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00005360 worked.
5361
Ulf Möller5271ebd1999-06-30 00:42:56 +00005362 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
5363 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
5364
Dr. Stephen Hensonce8b2571999-06-29 22:22:42 +00005365 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
5366 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
5367 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
5368 [Steve Henson]
5369
Bodo Möller9c729e01999-06-25 14:04:10 +00005370 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
5371 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
5372 test programs.
5373 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
5374
Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00005375 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
5376 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
5377 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
5378 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
5379 point to the end.

5382
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00005383 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
5384 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
5385 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
5386 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
5387 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
5388 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
5389 [Steve Henson]
5390
Dr. Stephen Hensondbd665c1999-06-22 01:38:31 +00005391 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
5392 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
5393 necessary function names.
5394 [Steve Henson]
5395
Bodo Möllerf76a8081999-06-21 11:32:25 +00005396 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00005397 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
Bodo Möller975d3dc1999-07-09 13:02:14 +00005398 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00005399 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.

5401
Dr. Stephen Henson8623f691999-06-20 17:36:11 +00005402 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
5403 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
5404 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
5405 [Steve Henson]
5406
Bodo Möllera1113061999-06-18 16:14:18 +00005407 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
5408 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
5409 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
Bodo Möller11af1a21999-06-18 18:22:38 +00005410 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by

5415
Bodo Möller95d29591999-06-12 01:03:40 +00005416 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
5417 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
5418 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
5419 [Bodo Moeller]
5420
5421 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
5422 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
5423 appropriate.
5424 [Bodo Moeller]
5425
Dr. Stephen Henson9bce3071999-06-11 22:30:45 +00005426 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
5427 for the encoded length.

5429
Dr. Stephen Henson565d1061999-06-11 01:58:42 +00005430 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
5431 [Steve Henson]
5432
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7d135b1999-06-10 17:32:52 +00005433 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
5434 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
5435 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
5436 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
5437 [Steve Henson]
5438
Ralf S. Engelschall9d9b5591999-06-10 08:13:52 +00005439 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
5440 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
5441 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5442
Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00005443 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
5444 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
5445 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
5446 unusual formatting.
5447 [Steve Henson]
5448
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00005449 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
5450 to use the new extension code.
5451 [Steve Henson]
5452
5453 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
5454 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
5455 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
5456 constant.
5457 [Steve Henson]
5458
Bodo Möller8151f521999-06-09 13:29:51 +00005459 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
5460 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
5461 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.

Ben Laurie233bf731999-06-09 10:19:53 +00005473 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
5474 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
5475 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
5476 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.

5478
Ulf Möller908eb7b1999-06-08 16:35:11 +00005479 *) DES library cleanups.
5480 [Ulf Möller]
5481
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00005482 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
5483 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
5484 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
5485 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
5486 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
5487 of v2.0.
5488 [Steve Henson]
5489
Bodo Möllerd4443ed1999-06-07 13:34:25 +00005490 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00005494 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
5495 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
5496 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
5497 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
5498 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
5499 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
5500 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
5501 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
5502 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
5503 [Steve Henson]
5504
Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00005505 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00005506 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
5507 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
5508 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
5509 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
5510 value doesn't matter.

Ulf Möllere14d4441999-05-20 01:43:07 +00005574 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
5575 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
5576 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5577
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00005578 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
5579 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
5580 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
5581 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
5582 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
5583 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
5584 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
5585 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
5586 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
5587 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
5588 [Steve Henson]
5589
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00005590 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
5591 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
5592 [Steve Henson]
5593
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00005594 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00005595 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00005596 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
5597 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
5598 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
5599
5600 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
5601 [Bodo Moeller]
5602
Dr. Stephen Henson84fa7041999-05-16 00:25:36 +00005603 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious

5605 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
5606 [Steve Henson]

5609 [Ben Laurie]
5610
Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00005611 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
5612 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
5613 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
5614 key elements as negative integers.

5622
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5eac851999-05-12 01:56:27 +00005623 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be

5626 [Steve Henson]

Bodo Möllerb31b04d1999-05-11 07:43:16 +00005628 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
5629 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
5630 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
5631 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as

5642
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00005643 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
5644 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
5645 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
5646
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00005647 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
5648 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
5649 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
5650 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
5651 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
5652 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
5653 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
5654 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
5655 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
5656
5657 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
5658 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
5659 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
5660 does not influence s as it used to.
5661
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00005662 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00005663 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
5664 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
5665 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
5666 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
5667 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

Dr. Stephen Hensone40b7ab1999-05-08 12:59:50 +00005676 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
5677 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
5678 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
5679 and 'x509').
5680 [Steve Henson]
5681
5682 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
5683 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
5684 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
5685 extension option.
5686 [Steve Henson]
5687
Ben Laurie5b640021999-05-07 15:42:23 +00005688 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
5689 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
5690 [Ben Laurie]
5691
Ulf Möller31a674d1999-05-06 00:46:34 +00005692 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
5693 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
5694
5695 *) Support Mingw32.
5696 [Ulf Möller]
5697
Ulf Möller8e7f9661999-05-05 00:23:53 +00005698 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.

Ulf Möllerafd1f9e1999-05-04 11:52:26 +00005704 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.

5707 *) Update HPUX configuration.
5708 [Anonymous]
5709
Ralf S. Engelschalldee75ec1999-05-04 10:15:02 +00005710 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
5711 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5712
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00005713 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
5714 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
5715 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
5716 DER-encoded.)
5717 [Bodo Moeller]
5718
Bodo Möller7f897141999-05-01 03:20:40 +00005719 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
5720 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
5721 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
5722 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
5723 now it really counts the depth.
5724 [Bodo Moeller]
5725
Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00005726 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
5727 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
5728 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
5729 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
5730 didn't match the private key).
5731
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00005732 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
Bodo Möllerdd1462f1999-05-01 00:07:42 +00005733 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
5734 connection using the SSL_CTX).

5736
Ulf Möllerc6652741999-04-29 21:56:13 +00005737 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
5738 [Ulf Möller]
5739
Bodo Möllere5f30451999-04-29 21:52:08 +00005740 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
5741 David Harris.
5742 [Bodo Moeller]
5743
Bodo Möller87bc2c01999-04-29 16:10:41 +00005744 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
5745 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
5746 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
5747 [Bodo Moeller]
5748
Bodo Möller6e6acfd1999-04-28 22:33:54 +00005749 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
5750 [Bodo Moeller]
5751
Bodo Möllerddeee821999-04-28 22:06:19 +00005752 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
5753 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
5754 such as /usr/local/bin.
5755 [Bodo Moeller]
5756
Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00005757 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.

Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00005759
Ulf Möllerf5d7a031999-04-27 01:14:46 +00005760 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
5761 [Ulf Möller]
5762
Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00005763 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
5764 extension adding in x509 utility.
5765 [Steve Henson]
5766
Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00005767 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
5768 [Ulf Möller]
5769
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00005770 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
5771 prototypes.
5772 [Steve Henson]
5773
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00005774 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
Ulf Möller9c4711c1999-04-24 23:39:52 +00005775 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00005776
Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00005777 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
5778 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
5779 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
5780 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
5781 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
5782 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
5783 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
5784 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00005785 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
5786 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00005787 [Steve Henson]
5788
Bodo Möller018b4ee1999-04-23 22:38:22 +00005789 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.

5791
Bodo Möller85f48f71999-04-22 14:28:38 +00005792 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
5793 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
5794 [Bodo Moeller]
5795
Bodo Möller90b8bbb1999-04-22 13:38:03 +00005796 *) Fix some race conditions.
5797 [Bodo Moeller]
5798
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00005799 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
5800 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
5801 [Steve Henson]
5802
Ulf Möller8e10f2b1999-04-21 17:31:05 +00005803 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
5804 [Ulf Möller]
5805
Ben Laurie49971381999-04-21 13:24:58 +00005806 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
5807 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
5808 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
5809 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]

5826
Ulf Möller22a4f961999-04-19 13:54:11 +00005827 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.

5832
Dr. Stephen Henson3edd7ed1999-04-19 17:55:11 +00005833 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00005834 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
Dr. Stephen Henson41b731f1999-04-18 23:21:03 +00005835 [Steve Henson]
5836
Ben Lauriee7788021999-04-17 21:25:43 +00005837 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
5838 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
5839 [Ben Laurie]
5840
Dr. Stephen Hensonc83e5231999-04-17 23:55:39 +00005841 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE

5851 [Steve Henson]
5852
Dr. Stephen Henson28a98801999-04-14 23:44:41 +00005853 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00005876 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
5877 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
5878 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
5879 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
5880 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
5881 [Ben Laurie]
5882
Ralf S. Engelschallf9a25931999-04-12 11:45:14 +00005883 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
5884 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
5885 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
5886 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.

5888
Ralf S. Engelschall2f0cd191999-04-12 10:36:16 +00005889 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
5890 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
5891 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
5892 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5893
Ralf S. Engelschall268c2101999-04-12 09:59:05 +00005894 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the

5897 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5898
Bodo Möllerfc8ee061999-04-11 02:49:35 +00005899 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
5900 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
5901 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
5902 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
5903 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
5904 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.

5909 [Bodo Moeller]
5910
Ulf Möller9d892e21999-04-09 17:04:32 +00005911 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to

5926 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
5927 [Ulf Möller]
5928
Bodo Möller6d02d8e1999-03-31 12:06:30 +00005929 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and

5939 [Steve Henson]
5940
Dr. Stephen Henson8d8c7261999-03-28 23:17:34 +00005941 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and

5944 [Steve Henson]
5945
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcefcb1999-03-28 17:46:10 +00005946 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and

6008
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00006009 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
6010 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
6011 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
6012 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
6013 [Steve Henson]
6014
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00006015 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
6016 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
6017 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
6018 [Steve Henson]
6019
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00006020 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
6021 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
6022 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
6023 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
6024 installed as `perl').

Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00006059 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
6060 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
6061 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
6062 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
6063 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
6064 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
6065 openssl_bio.xs.

Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00006081
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00006082 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
6083 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
6084 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
6085 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
6086 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
6087 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
6088 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
6089 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
6090 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
6091 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.

6099 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
6100 for linking it into DSOs.

6109 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
6110 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
6111 to the OpenSSL toolkit.

6113
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00006114 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
6115 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
6116 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
6117 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
6118 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
6119 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
6120 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6121
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00006122 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
6123 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
6124 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
6125 encryption.
6126 [Ben Laurie]
6127
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00006128 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
6129 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
6130 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
6131 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
6132 [Steve Henson]
6133
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00006134 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
6135 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
6136 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
6137 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
6138 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
6139 field as blank.

Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +00006155 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
6156 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
6157 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
6158 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
6159 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
6160 [Steve Henson]
6161
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00006162 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
6163 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
6164 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
6165 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
6166 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00006167 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
6168 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.

Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00006180 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
6181 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
6182 [Steve Henson]
6183
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00006184 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
6185 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
6186 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
6187 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
6188 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
6189 (e.g. s_server).
6190 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
6191 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
6192 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
6193 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
6194 no way to reconfigure them.
6195 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
6196 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
6197 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
6198 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
6199 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
6200 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6201
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00006202 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature

6204 recognized by the users.
6205 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6206
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00006207 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
6208 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
6209 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
6210 already masked variable.

6217 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
6218 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

6223 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6224
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00006225 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
6226 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
6227 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
6228 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
6229 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
6230 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
6231 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
6232 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
6233 now, too.
6234 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6235
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00006236 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested

6270
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00006271 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
6272 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
6273 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
6274 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
6275 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure

6310 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
6311 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
6312 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
6313 [Steve Henson]
6314
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +00006315 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
6316 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
6317 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
6318 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
6319 [Ben Laurie]
6320
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +00006321 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
6322 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
6323 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
6324 so it wasn't spotted.

6326
Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +00006327 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
6328 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
6329 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
6330 vectors if you have them.
6331 [Ben Laurie]
6332
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00006333 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
Ben Laurie436d3181999-02-13 12:39:50 +00006334 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
6335 [Ben Laurie]
6336
Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00006337 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
6338 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
6339 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
6340 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
6341 If you do a:
6342 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
6343 it will update them.

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00006346 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
6347 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
6348 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
6349 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
6350 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
6351 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
6352 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
6353 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6354
Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00006355 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
6356 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
6357 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
6358 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
6359 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
6360 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
6361 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
6362 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
6363 the crypto/md/ stuff).
6364 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6365
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00006366 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
6367 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
6368 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
6369 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
6370 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
6371 [Steve Henson]
6372
Dr. Stephen Hensonbceacf91999-02-09 01:29:37 +00006373 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the

6398 [Steve Henson]
6399
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00006400 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
6401 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
6402 doing certificate verification and some other functions.

6413
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +00006414 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
6415 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
6416 [Steve Henson]
6417
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00006418 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
6419 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
6420 CA extensions.
6421 [Steve Henson]
6422
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00006423 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
6424 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.

Dr. Stephen Henson9aeaf1b1999-01-24 00:50:01 +00006427 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
6428 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
6429 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
6430 [Steve Henson]
6431
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00006432 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
6433 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
6434 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
6435 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
6436 properly to be processed.
6437 [Steve Henson]
6438
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +00006439 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another

6446
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00006447 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
6448 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
6449 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
6450 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
6451 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
6452 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
6453 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
6454 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
6455 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00006458 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
6459 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
6460 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
6461 to regenerate it if needed.

6469 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
6470 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
6471 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
6472 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.

6495
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00006496 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
6497 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
6498 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
6499 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
6500 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
