4
Dr. Stephen Hensonaaf35f12009-03-30 11:31:50 +00005 Changes between 0.9.8k and 1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
Dr. Stephen Henson18e503f2009-09-30 21:40:55 +00007 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
8 some responders need this.
9 [Steve Henson]
10
Dr. Stephen Hensonb6dcdbf2009-09-23 23:43:49 +000011 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
12 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
13 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
14 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
15 RAND_METHOD structure.
16 [Steve Henson]
17
Dr. Stephen Hensonacf20c72009-09-23 16:27:10 +000018 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
19 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
20 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
21 whose return value is often ignored.
22 [Steve Henson]
23
Dr. Stephen Hensona25f33d2009-09-13 11:29:29 +000024 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
25 correctly.
26 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
27
Dr. Stephen Henson17716682009-09-02 12:47:28 +000028 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
29 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
30 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
31 [Steve Henson]
32
Dr. Stephen Henson0e4bc562009-07-13 11:58:05 +000033 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
34 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
35 several cryptographic weaknesses. The algorithm is also disabled in
36 the default configuration.
37 [Steve Henson]
38
Dr. Stephen Hensone30dd202009-06-25 11:29:30 +000039 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
40 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
41 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
42 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
43 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
44 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
45 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
46 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
47 [Steve Henson]
48
Dr. Stephen Hensonc05353c2009-06-17 12:04:56 +000049 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
50 OPENSSL_asc2uni the original names were too generic and cause name
51 clashes on Netware.
52 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
53
Dr. Stephen Hensond741cca2009-05-31 17:13:55 +000054 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
55 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
56
Dr. Stephen Henson5f8f94a2009-04-28 22:10:54 +000057 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
58 be used on C++.
59 [Steve Henson]
60
Dr. Stephen Hensone5fa8642009-04-15 15:27:03 +000061 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
62 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
63 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
64 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
65 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
66 attempting to work them out.
67 [Steve Henson]
68
Dr. Stephen Henson22c98d42009-04-08 16:16:35 +000069 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
70 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
71 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
72 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
73 [Steve Henson]
74
Dr. Stephen Henson14023fe2009-04-03 11:45:19 +000075 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
76 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
77 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
78 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
79 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
80 [Steve Henson]
81
Dr. Stephen Hensonaaf35f12009-03-30 11:31:50 +000082 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
83 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
84 you can do:
85
86 openssl sha256 foo
87
88 as well as:
89
90 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
91
92 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
93
94 [Steve Henson]
Mark J. Cox3ff55e92006-09-28 13:18:43 +000095
Dr. Stephen Hensonb6af2c72009-03-17 15:38:34 +000096 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
97 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
98
Dr. Stephen Henson33ab2e32009-03-09 13:59:07 +000099 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
100 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
101
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2c99e22009-01-15 13:22:39 +0000102 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
103 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
104 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
105 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
106 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
107 [Steve Henson]
108
Dr. Stephen Henson8125d9f2009-01-15 12:52:38 +0000109 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
110 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
111 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
112 [Steve Henson]
113
Dr. Stephen Henson363bd0b2009-01-11 15:56:32 +0000114 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
115 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
116 [Steve Henson]
117
Dr. Stephen Henson12bf56c2008-11-15 17:18:12 +0000118 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
119 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
120
Dr. Stephen Henson87d52462008-11-02 16:00:39 +0000121 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
122 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
123 [Steve Henson]
124
Ben Laurie1ea64722008-10-14 08:10:52 +0000125 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
126 [Ben Laurie]
127
Ben Lauriebabb3792008-10-12 14:32:47 +0000128 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
129 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
130 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
Ben Laurie1ea64722008-10-14 08:10:52 +0000131 CONF_VALUE.
132 [Ben Laurie]
Ben Lauriebabb3792008-10-12 14:32:47 +0000133
Dr. Stephen Henson87d3a0c2008-10-07 22:55:27 +0000134 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
135 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
136 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
137 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
138 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
139 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
140 [Steve Henson]
141
Dr. Stephen Hensond43c4492008-09-01 15:15:16 +0000142 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
143 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
144
145 This work was sponsored by Google.
146 [Steve Henson]
147
Dr. Stephen Henson4b968392008-08-29 11:37:21 +0000148 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
149 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
150 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
151 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
152 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
153 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
154 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
155 default.
156
157 This work was sponsored by Google.
158 [Steve Henson]
159
Dr. Stephen Henson249a77f2008-08-27 15:52:05 +0000160 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
161
162 This work was sponsored by Google.
163 [Steve Henson]
164
Dr. Stephen Hensond0fff692008-08-20 16:42:19 +0000165 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
166 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
167 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
Dr. Stephen Henson4b968392008-08-29 11:37:21 +0000168 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
Dr. Stephen Hensond0fff692008-08-20 16:42:19 +0000169
170 This work was sponsored by Google.
171 [Steve Henson]
172
Dr. Stephen Henson9d84d4e2008-08-13 16:00:11 +0000173 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
174 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
175 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
176 CRL functionality in future.
177
178 This work was sponsored by Google.
179 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson9d84d4e2008-08-13 16:00:11 +0000180
Dr. Stephen Henson002e66c2008-08-12 10:32:56 +0000181 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
182
183 This work was sponsored by Google.
184 [Steve Henson]
185
Dr. Stephen Hensone9746e02008-08-08 15:35:29 +0000186 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
187 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
188
189 This work was sponsored by Google.
190 [Steve Henson]
191
192 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
193 and URI types are currently supported.
194
195 This work was sponsored by Google.
196 [Steve Henson]
197
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +0000198 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
199 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
200 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
201 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
202 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
203 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
204 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
205 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
206
207 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
208 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
209 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
210
Bodo Möller2ecd2ed2008-08-13 19:30:01 +0000211 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
212 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
213 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
214 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
215
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +0000216 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
217 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
218 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
219 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
220 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
221 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
222 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
223 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
224 of &errno.)
225 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
226
Dr. Stephen Henson5cbd2032008-07-30 15:49:12 +0000227 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
228 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
229 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
Dr. Stephen Hensone9746e02008-08-08 15:35:29 +0000230
231 This work was sponsored by Google.
Dr. Stephen Henson5cbd2032008-07-30 15:49:12 +0000232 [Steve Henson]
233
Ben Laurie5ce278a2008-06-04 11:01:43 +0000234 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
235 [Ben Laurie]
236
237 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
238 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
239 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
240 [Ben Laurie]
241
Ben Laurie8671b892008-06-03 02:48:34 +0000242 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
243 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
244 [Nick Mathewson]
245
Ben Laurie3c1d6bb2008-05-26 11:24:29 +0000246 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
247 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
248 [Ben Laurie]
249
Dr. Stephen Henson8931b302008-03-12 21:14:28 +0000250 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
251 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd47c362008-03-15 00:02:23 +0000252 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
Dr. Stephen Hensoneb9d8d82008-03-28 13:15:39 +0000253 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
254 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
255 content types and variants.
Dr. Stephen Henson8931b302008-03-12 21:14:28 +0000256 [Steve Henson]
257
Dr. Stephen Henson3df93572008-04-02 11:44:00 +0000258 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
Dr. Stephen Henson8931b302008-03-12 21:14:28 +0000259 [Steve Henson]
260
Dr. Stephen Henson73980532008-01-06 00:36:22 +0000261 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
262 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
263 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
264 files from the associated perl scripts.
265 [Steve Henson]
266
Dr. Stephen Henson0e1dba92007-10-26 12:06:36 +0000267 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
268 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
269 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
270
Andy Polyakov0023adb2007-10-01 07:38:32 +0000271 *) s390x assembler pack.
272 [Andy Polyakov]
273
Andy Polyakov4c7c5ff2007-09-27 07:09:46 +0000274 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
275 "family."
276 [Andy Polyakov]
277
Bodo Möller761772d2007-09-21 06:54:24 +0000278 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
279 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
280 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
281 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
282 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
283 to use. For example, specify an option
284
285 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
286
287 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
288 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
289 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
290 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
291 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
292 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
293
294 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
295 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
296 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
297 return non-zero for success.
298
299 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
300 by using
301
302 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
303 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
304
305 where
306
307 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
308 void *arg;
309
310 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
311 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
312 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
313 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
314 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
315 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
316 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
317 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
318 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
319
320 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
321 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
322 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
323 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
324 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
325 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
326
327 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
328 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
329 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
330 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
331 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
332 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
333
334 [Bodo Moeller]
335
Dr. Stephen Henson81025662007-08-31 12:42:53 +0000336 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
337 MAC.
338
339 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
340
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +0000341 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
342 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
343 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
344 supported.
345
Dr. Stephen Hensonba0e8262007-08-23 22:59:09 +0000346 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
347 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
348 SSL_SESSION.
349
350 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
351 protection in servers so again support should be possible
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +0000352 with no application modification.
353
354 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
355 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
356
357 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
358 or server extensions to be examined.

362
Dr. Stephen Henson3c07d3a2007-06-07 13:14:42 +0000363 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
364 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
365 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
366
Dr. Stephen Hensonb948e2c2007-06-04 17:04:40 +0000367 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
368 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
369 ciphersuite support.
370 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
371
Dr. Stephen Henson9cfc8a92007-04-13 01:06:41 +0000372 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
373 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
374 to output in BER and PEM format.
375 [Steve Henson]
376
Dr. Stephen Henson47b71e62007-04-11 12:33:28 +0000377 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
378 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
379 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
Dr. Stephen Henson2022cfe2007-04-11 17:20:40 +0000380 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
381 -macopt options to dgst utility.

383
Dr. Stephen Hensond952c792007-04-08 12:47:18 +0000384 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
385 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
386 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
387 utility.

Bodo Möllerfd5bc652007-02-20 16:36:58 +0000390 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
391 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
392 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
393 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
394 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
395 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
396 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
397 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
398 enabled again.
399
400 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
401 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
402 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
403 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
404
405 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
406 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
407 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
408 the default order.
409 [Bodo Moeller]
410
Bodo Möller0a051232007-02-19 18:41:41 +0000411 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
412 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
413 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
414 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
415 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
416 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
417 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
418 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
419 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
420
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +0000421 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
422 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
423 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
424 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
425 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
426 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
427 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
428 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
429 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
430 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
431 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
432 kinds of kludges.
433
434 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
435 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
436 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
437
438 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
439 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
440 "CAMELLIA256".
441 [Bodo Moeller]
442
Nils Larsch357d5de2007-02-03 14:41:12 +0000443 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
444 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
445 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
446 [Nils Larsch]
447
Dr. Stephen Henson11d8cdc2006-12-24 16:22:56 +0000448 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
449 it yet and it is largely untested.
450 [Steve Henson]
451
Nils Larsch06e2dd02006-12-20 08:58:54 +0000452 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
453 [Nils Larsch]
454
Dr. Stephen Hensonde121162006-11-16 00:19:39 +0000455 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
Dr. Stephen Henson297e6f12007-06-04 17:53:04 +0000456 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
Dr. Stephen Hensona6fbcb42007-09-07 13:25:15 +0000457 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonde121162006-11-16 00:19:39 +0000458 [Steve Henson]
459
Andy Polyakov31897722006-10-23 07:38:30 +0000460 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
461 [Andy Polyakov]
462
Dr. Stephen Henson010fa0b2006-09-21 12:42:15 +0000463 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
464 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
465 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
466 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
467 [Steve Henson]
468
Dr. Stephen Henson5d20c4f2006-09-17 17:16:28 +0000469 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
470 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
471 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
472 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
473 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
474 [Steve Henson]
475
476 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
477 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
478 [Cryptocom]
479
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc7535b2006-09-14 17:25:02 +0000480 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
481 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
482 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
483 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
484 [Steve Henson]
485
486 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
487 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
488 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
489 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
490 [Steve Henson]
491
Dr. Stephen Hensonf6e7d012006-07-25 17:39:38 +0000492 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
493 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
494 [Steve Henson]
495
Dr. Stephen Hensonedc54022006-07-24 12:39:22 +0000496 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
497 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
498 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
499 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
500 [Steve Henson]
501
Dr. Stephen Henson450ea832006-07-18 12:36:19 +0000502 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
503 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
504 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
505 [Steve Henson]
506
Dr. Stephen Henson454dbbc2006-07-17 13:26:54 +0000507 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
508 utility.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc1c6c0b2006-07-17 12:18:28 +0000509 [Steve Henson]
510
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7683e32006-07-10 18:36:55 +0000511 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
512 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
513 [Steve Henson]
514
515 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
516 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
517 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
518 if necessary.
519 [Steve Henson]
520
Dr. Stephen Henson0ee21662006-07-09 16:05:43 +0000521 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
522 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
523 to free up any added signature OIDs.
524 [Steve Henson]
525
Dr. Stephen Henson5ba4bf32006-07-09 00:53:45 +0000526 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
527 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
528 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
529 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
530 [Steve Henson]
531
Bodo Möllerc4e78702006-06-18 22:00:57 +0000532 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
533 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
534 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
535 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
536 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
537 the array representation useful in a more general context.
538 [Douglas Stebila]
539
Bodo Möller89bbe142006-06-14 17:40:31 +0000540 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
541 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
542 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
543 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
544 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
545
546 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
547 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
548 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
549 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
550 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
551 protocol).
552
553 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
554 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
555 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
556 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
557
558 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
559 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
560 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
561 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
562 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
563
564 aECDH - ECDH cert
565 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
566 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
567
568 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
569 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
570
571 [Bodo Moeller]
572
Dr. Stephen Hensonfb7b3932006-06-06 13:27:36 +0000573 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
574 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
575 [Steve Henson]
576
Dr. Stephen Henson01b8b3c2006-06-05 11:52:46 +0000577 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
578 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
579 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonde9fcfe2006-06-02 17:52:27 +0000580
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +0000581 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9777d22006-06-02 12:33:39 +0000582 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
583 functional reference processing.
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +0000584 [Steve Henson]
585
Dr. Stephen Henson91c9e622006-05-24 17:30:09 +0000586 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
587 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
588 process.
589 [Steve Henson]
590
Dr. Stephen Henson55311922006-05-18 23:44:44 +0000591 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
592 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
593 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
594 [Steve Henson]
595
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7fcd2006-05-18 12:41:28 +0000596 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
597 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
598 application to support multiple signers.
599 [Steve Henson]
600
Dr. Stephen Henson121dd392006-05-17 18:46:22 +0000601 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
602 digest MAC.
603 [Steve Henson]
604
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +0000605 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8f702a2006-05-15 17:34:36 +0000606 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3a1ea2006-05-15 18:35:13 +0000607 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
608 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
609 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +0000610 [Steve Henson]
611
Dr. Stephen Henson34b3c722006-05-14 16:50:22 +0000612 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
Dr. Stephen Henson959e8df2006-05-11 21:39:00 +0000613 new API.
614 [Steve Henson]
615
Dr. Stephen Henson399a6f02006-05-08 12:44:25 +0000616 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
617 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
618 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
619 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
620 a no op.
621 [Steve Henson]
Richard Levitte28e4fe32005-05-18 04:04:12 +0000622
Dr. Stephen Henson03919682006-05-07 17:09:39 +0000623 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
624 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
625 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
626 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
627 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
628 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
629 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
630 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
631 [Steve Henson]
632
Dr. Stephen Hensonee1d9ec2006-04-19 17:05:59 +0000633 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
634 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
635 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
636 between digests and public key types.
637 [Steve Henson]
638
Dr. Stephen Hensond2027092006-04-18 23:36:07 +0000639 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
640 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
641 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
642 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
643 [Steve Henson]
644
Dr. Stephen Henson492a9e22006-04-17 17:12:23 +0000645 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
646 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
647 key ASN1 method.
648 [Steve Henson]
649
Dr. Stephen Henson9ca70472006-04-16 16:15:59 +0000650 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
651 [Steve Henson]
652
Dr. Stephen Hensonffb1ac62006-04-13 20:16:56 +0000653 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
654 pkeyutl.
655 [Steve Henson]
656
Dr. Stephen Henson3ba08852006-04-12 23:51:24 +0000657 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
658 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
659 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
660 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
661 pkey, genpkey.
662 [Steve Henson]
663
Ulf Möller4700aea2006-04-11 21:34:21 +0000664 *) BeOS support.
665 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
666
667 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
668 manual pages.
669 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
670
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +0000671 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
672 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
673 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
674 functionality for RSA.
675 [Steve Henson]
676
Dr. Stephen Hensonf733a5e2006-04-07 16:42:09 +0000677 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
678 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
679 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
680 [Steve Henson]
681
Dr. Stephen Henson0b6f3c62006-04-06 13:02:06 +0000682 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
683 key API, doesn't do much yet.
684 [Steve Henson]
685
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33dac2006-04-04 18:16:03 +0000686 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
687 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
688 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
689 [Steve Henson]
690
Bodo Möller33273722006-03-30 02:44:56 +0000691 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for

693 [Douglas Stebila]
694
Dr. Stephen Henson246e0932006-03-28 17:23:48 +0000695 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
696 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
697 [Steve Henson]
698
Dr. Stephen Henson3e4585c2006-03-28 14:35:32 +0000699 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +0000700 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
Dr. Stephen Henson3e4585c2006-03-28 14:35:32 +0000701 type.
Dr. Stephen Henson3e84b6e2006-03-28 12:34:45 +0000702 [Steve Henson]
703
Dr. Stephen Henson35208f32006-03-22 13:09:35 +0000704 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
705 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
706 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
707 structure.
708 [Steve Henson]
709
Dr. Stephen Henson448be742006-03-20 12:22:24 +0000710 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
711 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
712 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
713 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
714 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
715 of public and private key structures.
716 [Steve Henson]
717
Bodo Möller36ca4ba2006-03-11 23:46:37 +0000718 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for

720 [Douglas Stebila]
721
Nils Larschddac1972006-03-10 23:06:27 +0000722 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
723 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
724 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
725
726 New ciphersuites:
727 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
728 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
729
730 New functions:

736 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
737
Ulf Möllerc7235be2006-02-12 23:11:56 +0000738 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
739 and response verification functionality.
740 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
741
Bodo Möller1aeb3da2006-01-06 09:08:59 +0000742 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
743 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
744 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
745 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
746 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
747 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
748 server_name extension.
Bodo Möllerf1fd4542006-01-03 03:27:19 +0000749
750 New functions (subject to change):

Bodo Möller241520e2006-01-11 06:10:40 +0000766 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
767 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
768 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
769 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
770 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
771 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
772 option.

Andy Polyakoved266042005-12-16 12:55:33 +0000776 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
777 [Andy Polyakov]
778
Andy Polyakov0cb9d932005-12-16 11:12:42 +0000779 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
780 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
781 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
782 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
783 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
784 [Andy Polyakov]
785
Bodo Möller8dee9f82005-11-15 21:08:38 +0000786 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c

788 macro.
789 [Bodo Moeller]
790
Andy Polyakov4d524042005-10-22 17:57:18 +0000791 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
792 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
793 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
794 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
795 [Andy Polyakov]
796
Dr. Stephen Henson566dda02005-10-08 00:18:53 +0000797 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
798 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
799 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
800 using the maximum available value.
801 [Steve Henson]
802
Bodo Möller13e46702005-10-01 04:08:48 +0000803 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
804 in addition to the text details.
805 [Bodo Moeller]
806
Dr. Stephen Henson1ef7acf2005-09-01 13:59:16 +0000807 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
808 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
809 handle several customised structures at all.
810 [Steve Henson]
811
Dr. Stephen Hensona0156a92005-08-31 16:37:54 +0000812 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
813 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
814 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
815 [Steve Henson]

818 [Steve Henson]
819
Dr. Stephen Henson45e27382005-08-20 18:12:45 +0000820 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
821 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now

Nils Larsch4ebb3422005-08-14 21:48:33 +0000825 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
826 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
827 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
828 [Nils Larsch]
829
Dr. Stephen Henson9aa9d702005-07-24 00:23:57 +0000830 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously

Dr. Stephen Hensona25f33d2009-09-13 11:29:29 +0000843 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
844 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
845 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
846 correctly.
847 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
848
Dr. Stephen Henson0c28f272009-09-09 16:31:32 +0000849 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
850 warnings in other configurations.
851 [Steve Henson]
852
Dr. Stephen Henson67275652009-08-10 14:48:40 +0000853 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
854 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
855 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
856 systems need.
857 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
858
Dr. Stephen Hensond9d0f1b2009-08-06 16:32:54 +0000859 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
860 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
861 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
862
Dr. Stephen Henson9de014a2009-06-30 22:27:33 +0000863 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
864 and restored.
865 [Steve Henson]
866
Dr. Stephen Hensond2f6d282009-06-28 16:24:37 +0000867 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
868 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
869 other than a simple chain.
870 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
871
Dr. Stephen Hensonf3be6c72009-06-26 11:29:26 +0000872 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
873 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
874 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
875 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.

877
Dr. Stephen Hensond0b72cf2009-05-18 17:37:33 +0000878 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
879 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
880 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
881 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
882 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
883 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
884 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
885 buffered.
886 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
887
888 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
889 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
890 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
891 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
892 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
893 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
894 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
895
896 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
897 parent structure is freed.

921 [Steve Henson]
922
Dr. Stephen Henson237d7b62009-03-15 13:37:34 +0000923 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it

926 [Steve Henson]
927
Dr. Stephen Henson854a2252009-03-14 18:33:49 +0000928 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice

1085 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
1086 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
1087 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
1088
1089 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
1090 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
1091
1092 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
1093 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
1094 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
1095 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
1096 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)

Geoff Thorpee7b097f2008-04-28 21:39:09 +00001106 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
1107 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
1108 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
1109 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
1110 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
1111 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
1112 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
1113 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
1114 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
1115 implementation.

1122 hard coded.

1196 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
1197 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
1198 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
1199 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
1200 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
1201 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
1202 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.

1208 Steve Henson]
1209
1210 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1211 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1212 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1213 supported.
1214
1215 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1216 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1217 SSL_SESSION.
1218
1219 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1220 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1221 with no application modification.
1222
1223 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1224 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1225
1226 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1227 or server extensions to be examined.

1230 [Steve Henson]
1231
1232 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1233 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1234 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1235 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1236 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1237 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1238 server_name extension.
1239
1240 New functions (subject to change):
1241
1242 SSL_get_servername()
1243 SSL_get_servername_type()
1244 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1245
1246 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1247
1248 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1249 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1250 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1251 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1252 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1253
1254 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1255
1256 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1257 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1258 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1259 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1260 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1261 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1262 option.

Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00001296 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a

1300 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
1301 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
1302 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
1303 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
1304 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
1305 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
Bodo Möllerb0022652007-03-28 18:41:23 +00001306 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
1307 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
1308 remove a conditional branch.
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00001309
1310 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
1311 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
1312 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
1313 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
1314 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
1315 remains as a deprecated alias.
1316
1317 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
1318 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
1319 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
1320 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
1321
1322 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
1323 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
1324 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
1325 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
1326 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
1327 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
1328 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
1329 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.

1335 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
1336 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
1337 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
1338 with applications using a single external cache for quite
1339 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
1340 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
1341 in a different context.

1404
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00001405 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
1406 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
Bodo Möllerb6699c32006-09-12 14:42:19 +00001407 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
1408 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00001409 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
1410 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
1411 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
1412 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
1413 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
1414
1415 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
1416 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
1417 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
1418 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
1419 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
1420
1421 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
1422 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
1423 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
1424 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
1425 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
1426 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
1427 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
1428 multiple values to extend the available space.

Bodo Möller5b57fe02006-06-14 17:51:46 +00001454 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
1455
1456 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
1457 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
1458 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
1459
1460 The latter two were purportedly from
1461 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
1462 appear there.
1463
Nils Larschfec38ca2006-12-21 21:13:27 +00001464 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
Bodo Möller5b57fe02006-06-14 17:51:46 +00001465 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
1466 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
1467 [Bodo Moeller]
1468
Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +00001469 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
1470 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
1471 [Bodo Moeller]
1472
Bodo Möllerf3dea9a2006-06-09 15:44:59 +00001473 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
1474 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
1475 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
1476 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
1477
1478 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
1479 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
1480 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
1481 [NTT]
1482
Dr. Stephen Henson5cda6c42006-05-07 12:30:37 +00001483 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
1484 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
1485 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
1486 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
1487 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
1488 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
1489 [Steve Henson]
1490
1491 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
Richard Levitte998ac552005-11-01 07:53:37 +00001492
Dr. Stephen Hensonba1ba5f2006-04-15 00:22:05 +00001493 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
1494 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
1495 [Steve Henson]
1496
Dr. Stephen Henson31676a32006-01-15 13:50:10 +00001497 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
1498 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
1499
Bodo Möllerd56349a2005-12-13 07:33:35 +00001500 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
Bodo Möllered4a1d12006-03-11 22:10:34 +00001501 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
1502 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
1503 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
Bodo Möllerd56349a2005-12-13 07:33:35 +00001504 [Douglas Stebila]
1505
Dr. Stephen Hensonb40228a2005-12-02 13:46:39 +00001506 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
1507 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
1508 [Steve Henson]
1509
Dr. Stephen Hensonad2695b2005-12-05 13:46:46 +00001510 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
1511 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
1512 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
1513 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
1514 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
1515 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
1516 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
1517 can't be loaded.
1518 [Steve Henson]
1519
Dr. Stephen Henson452ae492005-11-20 13:07:47 +00001520 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
1521 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
1522 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
1523 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
1524 [Steve Henson]
1525
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbf002b2005-11-06 17:58:26 +00001526 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
1527 under VC++ build system.
1528 [Steve Henson]
1529
Richard Levitte998ac552005-11-01 07:53:37 +00001530 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
1531 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
1532 [Richard Levitte]
1533
Mark J. Coxd357be32005-10-11 11:10:19 +00001534 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
1535
1536 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
1537 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
1538 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
1539 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00001540 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)

Dr. Stephen Hensonf022c172005-09-02 22:49:54 +00001546 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
1547 [Steve Henson]
1548
Nils Larsch6e119bb2005-08-25 07:29:54 +00001549 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
1550 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1551 [Nils Larsch]
1552
Bodo Möller770bc592005-08-23 06:54:33 +00001553 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
Ben Lauriebf3d6c02005-08-21 16:00:17 +00001554 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
1555
1556 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
1557 [Nick Mathewson]
1558
Andy Polyakov0491e052005-08-07 22:21:49 +00001559 *) Extended Windows CE support.
1560 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
Bodo Möllera1006c32005-10-26 19:28:04 +00001561
Dr. Stephen Hensonf3b656b2005-08-05 23:56:11 +00001562 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
1563 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1564 [Steve Henson]
1565
Dr. Stephen Henson8f2e4fd2005-08-04 22:15:22 +00001566 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
1567 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
1568 smime utility.
1569 [Steve Henson]
Richard Levitte2bd2cd92005-07-05 19:16:24 +00001570
1571 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
Nils Larsch12bdb642005-04-02 09:29:15 +00001572
Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +00001573 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
1574 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
1575
Richard Levittec8310122005-07-05 18:36:42 +00001576 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
1577 [Richard Levitte]
1578
1579 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
1580 key into the same file any more.
1581 [Richard Levitte]
1582
Andy Polyakov8d3509b2005-07-05 11:48:38 +00001583 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
1584 [Andy Polyakov]
1585
Dr. Stephen Hensoncbdac462005-07-04 23:12:04 +00001586 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
1587 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
1588
Richard Levittec8310122005-07-05 18:36:42 +00001589 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
1590 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
1591 [Richard Levitte]
1592
Geoff Thorpea2c32e22005-05-29 19:14:21 +00001593 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
1594 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
1595 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
1596 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
1597 this only applies when building 'shared'.
1598 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
1599
Dr. Stephen Hensonb6995ad2005-05-15 00:54:45 +00001600 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
1601 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
1602 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
1603 [Steve Henson]
1604
Nils Larsch800e4002005-04-26 22:31:48 +00001605 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
1606 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
1607 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
1608 - add new function for parameter creation
1609 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
1610 BN_BLINDING parameters
1611 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
1612 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
1613 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
1614 threads.
1615 [Nils Larsch]
1616
Ben Laurie36d16f82005-04-26 16:02:40 +00001617 *) Add support for DTLS.
1618 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1619
Nils Larschdc0ed302005-04-08 22:52:42 +00001620 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
1621 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
1622 [Walter Goulet]
1623
Nils Larsch60493992005-04-07 23:19:17 +00001624 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
1625 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
1626 [Nils Larsch]
1627
Nils Larsch12bdb642005-04-02 09:29:15 +00001628 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
1629 the apps/openssl applications.
1630 [Nils Larsch]
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00001631
Ben Laurie41a15c42005-03-31 09:26:39 +00001632 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
1633 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
1634 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
1635 [Ben Laurie]
1636
Bodo Möllerc9a112f2005-02-22 10:29:51 +00001637 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
Bodo Möllerecc5ef82005-03-02 20:11:31 +00001638 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
1639
1640 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
1641 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
1642
1643 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
1644 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
1645 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
1646 avoid this algorithm.)
1647
Bodo Möllerc9a112f2005-02-22 10:29:51 +00001648 [Bodo Moeller]
1649
Richard Levitte6951c232004-12-28 00:21:35 +00001650 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
1651 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
1652 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
1653 [Richard Levitte]
1654
Andy Polyakovea681ba2004-11-26 15:26:09 +00001655 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
1656 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
1657 [Andy Polyakov]
1658
Dr. Stephen Henson401ee372004-11-25 17:47:31 +00001659 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
1660 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
1661 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
1662 pod file:
1663
1664 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
1665
1666 The blank line is mandatory.
1667
1668 [Steve Henson]
1669
Dr. Stephen Henson826a42a2004-11-16 17:30:59 +00001670 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
1671 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
1672 sources.
1673 [Steve Henson]
1674
Dr. Stephen Henson5d7c2222004-09-06 18:43:01 +00001675 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
1676 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
1677
1678 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
1679 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
1680 to support policy checking and print out.
1681 [Steve Henson]
1682
Geoff Thorpe30fe0282004-08-04 22:42:29 +00001683 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
1684 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
1685 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
1686 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
1687
Geoff Thorpedf11e1e2004-06-17 23:50:25 +00001688 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
1689 [Geoff Thorpe]
1690
Andy Polyakovad500342004-05-31 14:03:02 +00001691 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
1692 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
1693
Andy Polyakove14f4aa2004-05-13 13:58:44 +00001694 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
1695 implementation contributed by IBM.
1696 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
1697
Geoff Thorpebcfea9f2004-04-26 15:31:35 +00001698 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
1699 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
1700 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
1701 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
1702
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00001703 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
1704 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
1705
1706 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
1707 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
1708 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
1709 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
1710 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
1711 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
Dr. Stephen Henson64674bc2004-04-20 12:05:26 +00001712 [Steve Henson]
1713
Geoff Thorpe3a87a9b2004-04-19 17:46:04 +00001714 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
1715 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
1716 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
1717 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
1718 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
1719 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
1720 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
1721 [Geoff Thorpe]
1722
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf5773f2004-03-31 12:55:33 +00001723 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
1724 [Steve Henson]
1725
Dr. Stephen Henson216659e2004-03-28 17:38:00 +00001726 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
1727 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
1728 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
1729 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
1730 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
1731 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
1732 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
1733 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
1734 [Steve Henson]
1735
Dr. Stephen Hensone1a27eb2004-03-27 22:49:28 +00001736 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
1737 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
1738 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
1739 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
1740 [Steve Henson]
1741
Dr. Stephen Henson6446e0c2004-03-27 13:30:14 +00001742 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
1743 syntax:
1744
1745 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
1746 [Steve Henson]
1747
Geoff Thorpe5c98b2c2004-03-25 04:16:14 +00001748 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
1749 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
1750 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
1751 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
1752 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
1753 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
1754 BN_CTX's "bundling".
1755 [Geoff Thorpe]
1756
Geoff Thorpe46ef8732004-03-25 02:52:04 +00001757 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
1758 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
1759 [Geoff Thorpe]
1760
Dr. Stephen Henson4acc3e92004-03-23 14:14:35 +00001761 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
1762 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
1763 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
1764 [Steve Henson]
1765
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00001766 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
1767 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
1768 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
1769 below).
1770 [Geoff Thorpe]
1771
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00001772 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
1773 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00001774 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00001775
Geoff Thorpeb6358c82004-03-13 23:57:20 +00001776 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
1777 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
1778 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
1779 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
1780 [Geoff Thorpe]
1781
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00001782 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
1783 initialised value as BN_new().
1784 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
1785
Dr. Stephen Hensonedec6142004-03-08 13:56:31 +00001786 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
1787 [Steve Henson]
1788
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00001789 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
1790 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
1791 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
1792 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
1793 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
1794 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
1795 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
1796 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
1797 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
1798 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
1799 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
1800 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
1801 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
1802 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.

Geoff Thorpe2ce90b92003-10-29 18:04:37 +00001805 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
1806 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
1807 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
1808 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
1809 [Geoff Thorpe]
1810
Geoff Thorpe8dc344c2003-10-29 04:57:05 +00001811 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
1812 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
1813 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
1814 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
1815 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
1816 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
1817 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
1818 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
1819 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
1820 [Geoff Thorpe]
1821
Geoff Thorpe0991f072003-10-29 04:40:13 +00001822 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
1823 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
1824 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
1825 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
1826 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
1827 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
1828 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
1829 [Geoff Thorpe]
1830
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00001831 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
Geoff Thorpe2aaec9c2003-10-29 04:14:08 +00001832 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
1833 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
1834 these have been updated also.

1836
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00001837 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
1838 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
1839 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
1840 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
1841 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
1842 functions.
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00001843 [Steve Henson]
1844
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00001845 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
1846 structure of type "other".

1848
Ralf S. Engelschall6bd27f82003-09-25 13:57:58 +00001849 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
1850 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
1851 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
1852 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
1853 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
1854 situation in the script.
1855 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1856
Bodo Möller968766c2003-07-22 12:34:21 +00001857 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1858 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
1859 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
1860 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
1861 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
1862 used as premaster secret.
1863 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1864
Bodo Möller652ae062003-07-22 10:39:10 +00001865 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
1866 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
1867 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1868
Richard Levittee666c452003-06-11 22:42:28 +00001869 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
1870 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
1871
Richard Levitte54f64512003-06-11 20:49:58 +00001872 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
1873 control of the error stack.
1874 [Richard Levitte]
1875
Richard Levitte3bbb0212003-05-01 03:57:46 +00001876 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
1877 [Richard Levitte]
1878
Richard Levittea5db6fa2003-05-01 03:53:12 +00001879 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
1880 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
1881 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
1882 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
1883 [Richard Levitte]
1884
Richard Levitte535fba42003-05-01 03:45:18 +00001885 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
1886 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
1887 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
1888 [Richard Levitte]
1889
Richard Levitte1ae0a832003-04-29 22:08:57 +00001890 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
1891 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
1892 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
1893 a memory area.
1894 [Richard Levitte]
1895
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +00001896 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
1897 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
1898 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
1899 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
1900 [Richard Levitte]
1901
Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +00001902 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
1903 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
1904 the following flags are defined:
1905
1906 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
1907 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1908 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
1909 number.
1910
1911 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
1912 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1913 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
1914 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
1915 returns zero.

Richard Levitte16b1b032003-04-03 22:33:59 +00001918 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
1919 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
1920 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
1921 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
1922 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
1923 [Richard Levitte]
1924
Richard Levittee6526fb2003-04-03 22:27:24 +00001925 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
1926 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
1927 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
1928 [Richard Levitte]
1929
Richard Levittef85b68c2003-04-03 16:33:03 +00001930 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1931 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1932 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1933 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1934 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1935 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1936 [Richard Levitte]
1937
Dr. Stephen Henson1a15c892003-03-30 01:51:16 +00001938 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
1939 req and dirName.
1940 [Steve Henson]
1941
Dr. Stephen Henson520b76f2003-03-24 17:04:44 +00001942 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
1943 [Steve Henson]
1944
Dr. Stephen Hensonf80153e2003-03-21 16:26:20 +00001945 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
1946 [Steve Henson]
1947
Dr. Stephen Hensona1d12da2003-03-20 17:26:44 +00001948 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1949 [Steve Henson]
1950
Geoff Thorpe879650b2003-03-11 01:49:21 +00001951 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1952 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1953 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1954 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1955 default implementation more easily.
1956 [Geoff Thorpe]
1957
Dr. Stephen Hensonf0dc08e2003-02-27 01:54:11 +00001958 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1959 in config files.
1960 [Steve Henson]
1961
Richard Levitte132eaa52003-02-22 14:41:34 +00001962 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
1963 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
1964 [Richard Levitte]
1965
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00001966 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1967 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1968 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1969 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1970
Dr. Stephen Hensone9ec6392003-02-25 19:03:31 +00001971 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00001972 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1973 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1974 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1975 [Steve Henson]
1976
Richard Levitte2d3de722003-02-13 23:52:54 +00001977 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1978 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1979 to do it.
1980 [Richard Levitte]
1981
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001982 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +00001983 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001984 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +00001985 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001986 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
1987 scalar * generator).
1988 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1989
Dr. Stephen Henson4e5d3a72003-02-05 00:34:31 +00001990 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1991 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1992 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1993 correctly.
1994 [Steve Henson]
1995
Geoff Thorpe96f70652003-01-30 15:52:40 +00001996 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1997 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1998 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1999 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
2000 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
2001 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
2002 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
2003 linker additions, eg;
2004 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
2005 [Geoff Thorpe]
2006
2007 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
2008 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
2009 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
2010 [Geoff Thorpe]
2011
Lutz Jänickea74333f2003-01-15 14:54:59 +00002012 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
2013 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
2014 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
2015 via PR#459)
2016 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2017
Geoff Thorpe0e4aa0d2003-01-15 02:01:55 +00002018 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
2019 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
2020 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
2021 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
2022 [Geoff Thorpe]
2023
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +00002024 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
2025 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
2026 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
2027 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
2028 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
2029 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
2030 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
2031 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
2032 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
2033 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00002034
2035 Example for using the new callback interface:
2036
2037 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
2038 void *my_arg = ...;
2039 BN_GENCB my_cb;
2040
2041 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
2042
2043 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
2044 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
2045 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
2046 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
2047 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
2048 * to continue, or 0 to stop.

Richard Levittefdaea9e2002-12-08 09:31:41 +00002053 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
2054 available to TLS with the number defined in
2055 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
2056 [Richard Levitte]
2057
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00002058 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
2059 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
2060
2061 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00002062 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
2063 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
2064 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00002065
2066 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
2067 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
2068
2069 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
2070 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
2071 well.
2072 [Richard Levitte]
2073
Richard Levitte6f17f162002-11-15 16:48:38 +00002074 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in

2076 [Richard Levitte]
2077
Nils Larschff22e912005-04-22 20:02:44 +00002078 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function

2080 and a macro that behave like
2081 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);

Nils Larschff22e912005-04-22 20:02:44 +00002083 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.

Bodo Möller5c6bf032002-10-28 13:23:24 +00002086 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
2087 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
2088 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this

2091

2093 [Bodo Moeller]
2094
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +00002095 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
2096 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
2097 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
2098 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
2099 directory engines/.
2100 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
2101 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
2102 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
2103 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
Richard Levitte874fee42002-10-12 16:07:31 +00002104 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
2105 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
2106 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.

2115
Dr. Stephen Henson9a48b072002-10-03 23:53:52 +00002116 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
2117 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
2118 files while avoiding the low level API.
2119
2120 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
2121 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
2122 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
2123 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
2124
2125 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
2126 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
2127 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
2128 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
2129 instead of the low level API.
2130 [Steve Henson]
2131
Dr. Stephen Henson230fd6b2002-10-03 12:38:52 +00002132 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
2133 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
2134 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
2135 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
2136 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
2137 PKCS#7 code.
2138
2139 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
2140 down to the template encoder.

Bodo Möller9226e212002-09-10 07:34:45 +00002143 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
2144 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
2145 [Bodo Moeller]
2146
Bodo Möllerea262262002-08-09 08:56:08 +00002147 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.

Bodo Möllere172d602002-08-09 08:43:04 +00002152 *) Add ECDH engine support.

2154
2155 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
2156 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2157
Bodo Möller95ecacf2002-08-02 15:02:03 +00002158 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
2159 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
2160 [Bodo Moeller]
2161
Bodo Möller6fb60a82002-08-02 14:57:53 +00002162 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
2163 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
2164 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
2165 [Bodo Moeller]
2166
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00002167 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
2168 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
2169
2170 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2171 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2172
2173 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
2174 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
2175 New EC_METHOD:
2176
2177 EC_GF2m_simple_method
2178
2179 New API functions:
2180
2181 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
2182 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
2183 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00002184 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
2185 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
2186 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
2187
2188 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
2189 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
2190 enable it).
2191
2192 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
2193 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
2194 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
2195 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
2196 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +00002197 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
2198 various internal method names.)
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00002199
2200 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
2201 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.

2204 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2205
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +00002206 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00002207 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
2208
2209 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
2210 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
2211 methods are undefined.
2212
2213 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2214 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2215
2216 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
2217 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
2218 length of the modulus.
2219
2220 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2221 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2222
2223 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
2224 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
2225

2227 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2228
Bodo Möller1dc920c2002-08-02 13:03:55 +00002229 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
2230 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
2231 used) in the following functions [macros]:
2232
2233 BN_GF2m_add
2234 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
2235 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
2236 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
2237 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
2238 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
2239 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
2240 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
2241 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
2242 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
2243
2244 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
2245 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
2246
2247 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
2248 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
2249 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
2250 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
2251 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
2252 where
2253 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
2254 This applies to the following functions:
2255
2256 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
2257 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
2258 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
2259 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
2260 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
2261 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
2262 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
2263 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
2264 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
2265 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
2266
2267 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
2268
2269 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
2270 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
2271
2272 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
2273
Bodo Möller909abce2002-08-02 18:26:02 +00002274 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
2275 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
2276 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
2277 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
2278 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).

2281 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2282
Bodo Möller16dc1cf2002-08-02 12:28:34 +00002283 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
2284 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
2285 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
2286
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00002287 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
2288 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
2289
2290 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
2291 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
2292 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
2293 avoid the appearance of a printable string.

2295
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +00002296 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
2297 functions
2298 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
2299 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
2300 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
2301 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
2302 These control ASN1 encoding details:
Bodo Möllerb8e0e122002-06-12 14:19:01 +00002303 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
2304 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +00002305 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +00002306 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
2307 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
2308 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
2309 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +00002310
2311 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
2312 functions
2313 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
2314 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
2315 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
2316 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).

2318
2319 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
2320 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
2321 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.

2323
Bodo Möller6cbe6382002-05-30 13:16:03 +00002324 *) Add functions

2326 EC_POINT_bn2point()
2327 EC_POINT_point2hex()
2328 EC_POINT_hex2point()
2329 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
2330 EC_POINT_oct2point().

2332
Bodo Möllerb6db3862002-05-08 11:54:24 +00002333 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
2334 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
2335 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
2336 EC_GROUP_get_order()
2337 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
2338 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
2339 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
2340 adding different types of curves.

Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +00002343 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
2344 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
2345 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
2346 [Bodo Moeller]
2347
Bodo Möller82652aa2002-03-20 16:04:04 +00002348 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
2349 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
2350
2351 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
2352 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
2353 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().

2355
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00002356 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00002357
Bodo Möller5dbd3ef2002-07-14 16:54:31 +00002358 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
2359 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00002360
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00002361 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
2362 library. Most notably,
2363 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
2364 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
2365 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
2366 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
2367 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
Bodo Möllere172d602002-08-09 08:43:04 +00002368 extracted before the specific public key;
2369 - ECDSA engine support has been added.

Nils Larsch8b15c742005-05-10 11:37:47 +00002375 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),

2377 EC_get_builtin_curves().
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +00002378 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be

Bodo Möllerc1862f92003-01-24 22:28:32 +00002384 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
2385 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
2386 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
2387 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
2388 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
2389 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with

2394
2395 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2396 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2397 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2398 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2399 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2400 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2401 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2402 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2403 in a different context.

2415 [Bodo Moeller]
2416
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00002417 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of

2465 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
2466 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
2467 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the

Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +00002497 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on

2501 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
2502
2503 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
2504 module in FIPS mode.
2505 [Steve Henson]
2506
2507 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
2508 [Steve Henson]
2509
2510 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
2511 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
2512 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
2513 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.

Richard Levitte89ec4332005-10-15 04:26:57 +00002516 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
2517
2518 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
2519 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
2520 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
2521 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
2522 the difference induced by this change.

Mark J. Coxd357be32005-10-11 11:10:19 +00002525 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
2526
2527 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2528 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2529 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2530 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad

Dr. Stephen Hensonb615ad92005-06-02 20:11:16 +00002537 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
Dr. Stephen Henson5d6c4982005-06-02 20:29:32 +00002538 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.

2540
Bodo Möller0ebfcc82005-05-26 04:40:52 +00002541 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
2542 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
2543 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
2544 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
2545 biased k.)
2546 [Bodo Moeller]
2547
Bodo Möller46a64372005-05-16 01:43:31 +00002548 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
Bodo Möller91b17fb2005-05-16 19:14:34 +00002549 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
2550 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
2551 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
2552 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
Bodo Möller46a64372005-05-16 01:43:31 +00002553
2554 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
2555 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
Bodo Möllerdb99c522008-09-14 13:51:44 +00002556 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
Bodo Möller46a64372005-05-16 01:43:31 +00002557 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
2558 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or

2565 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.

2569
Dr. Stephen Henson05338b52005-05-01 12:46:57 +00002570 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some

2572 [Steve Henson]
2573
Dr. Stephen Henson6ec8e632005-04-26 23:58:54 +00002574 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in

2577 [Steve Henson]
2578
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc3cae72005-04-12 13:31:14 +00002579 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions

2588
Dr. Stephen Henson0858b712005-04-09 23:55:55 +00002589 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
2590 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
2591 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
2592 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
2593 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
2594 some needed definitions.

Dr. Stephen Henson59b68362005-03-22 14:11:06 +00002608 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
2609 server and client random values. Previously
2610 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
2611 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
2612
2613 This change has negligible security impact because:
2614
2615 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
2616 data.
2617
2618 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
2619 handshake.
2620
2621 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
2622 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
2623 values.
2624
2625 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
2626 to our attention.

2658 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
2659 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
2660 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
2661
2662 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
2663 has chosen to ignore this fault)
2664 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
2665 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has

2685 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
2686 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
2687 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed

2712 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
2713 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical

2718
Dr. Stephen Hensondc90f642004-02-19 18:16:38 +00002719 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
2720 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
2721 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
2722 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
2723 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.

2725
Dr. Stephen Hensond4575822004-02-01 13:39:51 +00002726 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when

Bodo Möllerc5541552003-03-20 17:31:30 +00002802
2803 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
2804 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
2805 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
Bodo Möller5679bcc2003-04-02 09:50:22 +00002806 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
2807 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
2808 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
2809 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
2810 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
2811 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

2825
2826 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
2827 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect

Dr. Stephen Hensoncf566632003-02-12 17:06:02 +00002856 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
2857 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
2858 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
2859 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
2860
2861 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
2862
2863 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
2864
2865 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
2866
2867 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
2868 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
2869 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
2870 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
2871 root is omitted).

3271 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)

3278 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
3279 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
3280
3281 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
3282 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
3283 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
3284 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
3285 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
3286 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
3287 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
3288 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
3289 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
3290 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
3291
3292 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
3293 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.

Richard Levitte2d57b732002-01-26 01:14:09 +00003330 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00003331 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
3332 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
3333 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
3334 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00003335
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00003336 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
3337 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
3338 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
3339 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
3340
3341 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
3342 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
3343 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
3344 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
3345
3346 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
3347 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
3348 won't work.
Richard Levittec2e4f172001-10-24 21:21:12 +00003349
3350 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
3351 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
3352 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00003353 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
3354 default), and then completely removed.

3359 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
3360 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
3361 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function

3372 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
3373 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
3374 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
3375 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
3376 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
3377 requires the destination to be valid.

3390
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003391 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00003392 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
3393 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
3394 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
3395 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
3396 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
3397 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
3398 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
3399 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
3400 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
3401 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
3402 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
3403 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
3404 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
3405 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
3406 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
3407 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
3408 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
3409 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
3410 the new code.

3423 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
3424 false once a handshake has been completed.
3425 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
3426 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
3427 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
3428 client has followed the request.)

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003431 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00003432 By default, clients may request session resumption even during

Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00003468 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
3469 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
3470 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
3471 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
3472 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
3473 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
3474 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).

3476
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003477 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new

3479 [Geoff Thorpe]
3480
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003481 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.

3483
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003484 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003485 md_data void pointer.
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00003486 [Ben Laurie]
3487
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003488 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00003489 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
3490 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
3491 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
3492 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
3493 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
3494 [Ben Laurie]
3495
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003496 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00003497 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
3498 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
3499 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
3500 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
3501 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
3502 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
3503 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
3504 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
3505 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
3506 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
3507 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
3508 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
3509 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
3510 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +00003511
3512 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
3513 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
3514 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00003515 [Geoff Thorpe]
3516
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003517 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +00003518 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
3519 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
3520 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
3521 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
3522 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
3523 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
3524 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
3525 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
3526 [Geoff Thorpe]
3527
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003528 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00003529 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
3530 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
3531 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
3532 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +00003533
3534 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00003535 [Geoff Thorpe]
3536
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003537 *) Add EVP test program.

3539
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003540 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!

3542
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003543 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
Dr. Stephen Henson35bf3542001-08-17 00:33:43 +00003544 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
3545 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
3546 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
3547 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
3548 [Steve Henson]
3549
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003550 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00003551 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +00003552 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00003553 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
3554 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
3555 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

3557
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003558 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
Bodo Möller76f8a1f2002-06-26 14:21:16 +00003559 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
3560 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00003561 Usage example:
3562
3563 EVP_MD_CTX md;
3564
3565 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
3566 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());

3572
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003573 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
Ben Laurie8408f4f2001-07-31 13:33:58 +00003574 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
3575 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
3576 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00003577 anyway): E.g.,
3578
3579 des_key_schedule ks;
3580
3581 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
3582 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
3583
3584 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)

3586
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003587 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +00003588 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
3589 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
3590 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
3591 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
3592 functions prevents this.
3593 [Steve Henson]
3594
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003595 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.

3597
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003598 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
Ben Lauriec518ade2001-07-21 10:24:07 +00003599 correct _ecb suffix.
3600 [Ben Laurie]
3601
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003602 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
Dr. Stephen Hensonee306a12001-07-12 20:41:51 +00003603 revocation information is handled using the text based index
3604 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
3605 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
3606 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.

3611
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003612 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
Richard Levitte0665dd62001-07-12 04:23:57 +00003613 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
3614 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
3615 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
3616
3617 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
3618 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.

3727 internally such as S/MIME.
3728
3729 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and

3740 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
3741
3742 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3743
3744 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
3745
3746 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
3747 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
3748 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
3749 handling.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003752 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
Bodo Möller8a774dc2001-06-11 09:55:20 +00003753 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
3754 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
3755 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
3756 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
3757 a window system and the like.

3759
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003760 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00003761 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
3762 [Geoff]
3763
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003764 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00003765 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
3766 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
3767 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
3768 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
3769 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
3770 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
3771 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
3772 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
3773 ENGINE structure.
3774 [Geoff]
3775
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003776 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9624792001-04-21 12:06:01 +00003777 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
3778 tag cache.
3779 [Steve Henson]
3780
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003781 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003782 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
3783 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
3784 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
3785 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
3786 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
3787 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
3788 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
3789 [Geoff]
3790
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003791 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003792 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
3793 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
3794 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
3795 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
3796 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
3797 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
3798 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
3799 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
3800 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
3801 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
3802 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
3803 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
3804 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
3805 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
3806 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
3807 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
3808 [Geoff]
3809
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003810 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003811 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
3812 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
3813 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
3814 internal engine_int.h header.
3815 [Geoff]
3816
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003817 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00003818 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
3819 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
3820 modify their own ones).
3821 [Geoff]
3822
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003823 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00003824 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
3825 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
3826 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
3827 later on via ctrl() commands.
3828 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
3829 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
3830 structural references.
3831 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
3832 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
3833 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
3834 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
3835 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Möllere13ae962001-09-10 18:59:53 +00003836 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00003837 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
3838 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
3839 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
3840 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
3841 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
3842 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.

3844
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003845 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003846 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +00003847 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
3848 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
3849 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
3850 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
3851 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
3852 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

3854
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003855 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
Dr. Stephen Henson722ca272001-04-02 00:59:19 +00003856 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
3857 [Steve Henson]
3858
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003859 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
Dr. Stephen Henson791bd0c2001-03-16 02:04:17 +00003860 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
3861 [Steve Henson]
3862
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003863 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
Dr. Stephen Henson535d79d2001-03-15 19:13:40 +00003864 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
3865 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
3866 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
3867 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
3868 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
3869 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

Bodo Möller48fe4d62001-03-10 23:18:35 +00003884
3885 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
3886 operations and provides various method functions that can also
3887 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003909 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires

3933
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003934 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:

3936 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003966 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003967 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
3968 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
3969 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
3970 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
3971 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
3972
3973 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3974 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3975
3976 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3977 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3978
3979 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3980 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3981
3982 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3983 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3984 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3985 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3986
3987 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003988 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003989
3990 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003991 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003992
3993 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3994 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3995 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3996 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3997 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004033 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00004034 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
4035 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
4036 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
4037 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
4038 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
4039 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
4040 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
4041 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
4042 functions returning pointers to structures is not.

Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00004046 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
4047 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
4048 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
4049 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A

Richard Levitted399fdf2001-02-21 14:12:03 +00004055 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
4056 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
4057 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.

4059
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004060 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00004061 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
4062 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
4063 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
4064 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00004065 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
4066 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
4067 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
4068 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
4069 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
4070 what is available.

4072
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004073 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
Dr. Stephen Hensonacba75c2001-02-19 13:38:32 +00004074 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
4075 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
4076 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
4077 auto incremented.
4078 [Steve Henson]
4079
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004080 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6b7ffd2001-02-16 01:35:44 +00004081 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
4082 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
4083 [Steve Henson]
4084
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004085 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
Dr. Stephen Hensonf2e5ca82001-02-14 02:11:52 +00004086 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
4087 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
4088 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
4089 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
4090 [Steve Henson]
4091
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004092 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.

4094
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004095 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
Dr. Stephen Henson67c18012001-02-13 00:37:44 +00004096 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
4097 option to ocsp utility.
4098 [Steve Henson]
4099
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004100 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00004101 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
4102 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
4103 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
4104 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
4105 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
4106 the request is nonce-less.
4107 [Steve Henson]
4108
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004109 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
Bodo Möller620cea32001-02-10 13:12:35 +00004110 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,

4112 [Bodo Moeller]
4113
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004114 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
Dr. Stephen Hensonccb08f92001-02-10 00:56:45 +00004115 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
4116 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
4117 [Steve Henson]
4118
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004119 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
Lutz Jänicke836f9962001-02-09 19:56:31 +00004120 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
4121 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
4122 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.

4125
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004126 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
Dr. Stephen Hensonc47c6192001-02-09 13:16:21 +00004127 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
4128 appear to exist.
4129 [Steve Henson]
4130
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004131 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
Dr. Stephen Henson8c950422001-02-08 19:36:10 +00004132 additional certificates supplied.
4133 [Steve Henson]
4134
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004135 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
Richard Levitte9235adb2001-02-08 17:59:29 +00004136 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
4137 signature against.
4138 [Richard Levitte]
4139
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004140 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00004141 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +00004142 AES OIDs.
4143
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00004144 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
4145 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
4146 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
4147 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
4148 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
4149 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
4150 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
4151 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004154 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
Dr. Stephen Henson26e083c2001-02-05 00:35:06 +00004155 request to response.
4156 [Steve Henson]
4157
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004158 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00004159 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
4160 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
4161 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
4162 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00004163 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00004164 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
4165 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
4166 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
4167 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
4168 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
4169 [Steve Henson]
4170
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004171 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00004172 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00004173 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00004174 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.

Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00004181 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004185 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00004186 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This

4190
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004191 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00004192 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.

4195
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004196 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00004197 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
4198 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
4199 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
4200 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
4201 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004205 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00004206 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
4207 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
4208 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
4209 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
4210 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
4211 [Steve Henson]
4212
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004213 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00004214 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
4215 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
4216 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
4217 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
4218 printout format cleaned up.
4219 [Steve Henson]
4220
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004221 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00004222 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
4223 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
4224 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
4225 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
4226 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
4227 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
4228 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
4229 [Steve Henson]
4230
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004231 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00004232 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
4233 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
4234 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
4235 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
4236 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
4237 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
4238 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
4239 [Steve Henson]
4240
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004241 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
Bodo Möllerdfebac32001-01-15 11:35:24 +00004242 extensions from a separate configuration file.
4243 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
4244 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
4245 section to use.

4247
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004248 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
Dr. Stephen Henson5782ceb2001-01-13 01:48:38 +00004249 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
4250 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
4251 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
4252 [Steve Henson]
4253
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004254 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
Bodo Möllerc67cdb52001-01-12 14:50:44 +00004255 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
4256 the given serial number (according to the index file).
4257 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004261 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
Bodo Möllerd1998582001-01-11 13:23:19 +00004262 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option

4268
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004269 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
Dr. Stephen Henson9b4dc832001-01-11 00:52:50 +00004270 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
4271 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
4272 [Steve Henson]
4273
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004274 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
Bodo Möller673b3fd2001-01-10 15:15:36 +00004275 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option

4278
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004279 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00004280 file name and line number information in additional arguments
4281 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
4282 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
4283 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
4284 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
4285 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
4286 functions are provided:

4292
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00004293 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
4294 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
4295 extended allocation function is enabled.
4296 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
4297 a conventional allocation function is enabled.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004307 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00004308 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
4309 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
4310 be queried.
4311 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
4312 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
4313 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00004317 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
4318 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
4319 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
4320 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
4321 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
4322 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
4323 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
4324 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

4329 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
4330 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
4331 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
4332
4333 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
4334 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
4335 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
4336 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
4337 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
4338 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
4339 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
4340 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
4341 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
4342
4343 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
4344 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
4345 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
4346 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
4347 [Steve Henson]
4348
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004349 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00004350 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
4351 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
4352 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
4353 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
4354 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
4355 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
4356 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
4357 will be added elsewhere.
4358 [Steve Henson]
4359
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004360 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf0d1762001-01-04 01:46:36 +00004361 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
4362 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
4363 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
4364 [Steve Henson]
4365
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004366 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00004367 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
4368 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
4369 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
4370 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
4371 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
4372 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
4373 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
4374 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
4375 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
4376 to produce the required SET OF.
4377 [Steve Henson]
4378
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004379 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
Richard Levittea6574c22000-12-31 00:26:18 +00004380 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
4381 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
4382 [Richard Levitte]
4383
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004384 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
Dr. Stephen Hensonecbe0782000-12-31 01:13:04 +00004385 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
4386 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
4387 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
4388 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
4389 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
4390 [Steve Henson]
4391
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004392 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
Dr. Stephen Henson4e1209e2000-12-30 02:40:26 +00004393 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
4394 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
4395 [Steve Henson]
4396
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004397 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
Richard Levitte3f07fe02000-12-29 00:05:14 +00004398 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
4399 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
4400 [Richard Levitte]
4401
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004402 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
Dr. Stephen Henson73e92de2000-12-28 22:24:50 +00004403 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
4404 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
4405 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
4406 code will still work when these eventually go away.

4408
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004409 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
Dr. Stephen Hensonec558b62000-12-28 01:05:05 +00004410 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
4411 [Steve Henson]
4412
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004413 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
Dr. Stephen Henson57d2f212000-12-24 18:02:33 +00004414 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
4415 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
4416 certifcates and CRLs.
4417 [Steve Henson]
4418
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004419 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00004420 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
4421 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
4422 [Steve Henson]
4423
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004424 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004428 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +00004429 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
4430 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
4431 storing which locks are currently held by the program.

4433
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004434 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +00004435 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
4436 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
4437 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
4438 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
4439 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
4440 [Bodo Moeller]
4441
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004442 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.

4444
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004445 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
Dr. Stephen Henson2c15d422000-12-14 18:42:28 +00004446 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
Dr. Stephen Hensonc08523d2000-12-15 13:42:00 +00004447 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.

4449
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004450 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
Dr. Stephen Hensonde487512000-12-14 00:53:10 +00004451 print routines.
4452 [Steve Henson]
4453
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004454 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
Dr. Stephen Henson06db4252000-12-13 23:54:30 +00004455 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
4456 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
4457 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
4458 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
4459 order did not reflect the encoded order.
4460 [Steve Henson]
4461
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004462 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.

4464
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004465 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
Dr. Stephen Henson2aff7722000-12-13 13:47:33 +00004466 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
4467 for now but they will eventually go away.
4468 [Steve Henson]
4469
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004470 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00004471 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
4472 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
4473 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
4474 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
4475 has also been converted to the new form.

4477
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004478 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00004479 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
4480 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
4481 for negative moduli.
4482 [Bodo Moeller]
4483
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004484 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00004485 of not touching the result's sign bit.
4486 [Bodo Moeller]
4487
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004488 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
Bodo Möller80d89e62000-12-07 08:48:58 +00004489 set.
4490 [Bodo Moeller]
4491
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004492 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
Geoff Thorpef1919c32000-12-04 03:35:35 +00004493 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
4494 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the

4527 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
4528 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
4529 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
4530 [Bodo Moeller]
4531
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004532 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +00004533 sign of the number in question.
4534
4535 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
4536
4537 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
4538 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
4539 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
4540 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
4541 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004598 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00004599 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
4600 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
4601 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
4602 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
4603
4604 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
4605 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
4606 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
4607 cause any problems.

4609
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004610 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.

4616
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004617 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00004618 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
4619 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
4620 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
4621 time)

4629
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004630 *) Add the following functions:
Richard Levitte11c0f122000-11-02 20:33:04 +00004631
4632 ENGINE_load_cswift()
4633 ENGINE_load_chil()
4634 ENGINE_load_atalla()
4635 ENGINE_load_nuron()
4636 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
4637
4638 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
4639 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
4640 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
4641 libraries unless it's really needed.
4642
4643 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
4644 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
4645 declarations (they differed!).

4684 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
4685 different shared library filenames on each system.

4690
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004691 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
Dr. Stephen Henson627ec352000-10-20 00:36:45 +00004692 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
4693 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping

4696
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004697 *) NCONF changes.
Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00004698 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
4699 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
4700 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
4701 binary backward compatibility.
4702 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
4703 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
4704 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
4705 LDAP server.
4706 [Richard Levitte]
4707
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004708 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
Dr. Stephen Henson924046c2000-10-12 01:50:33 +00004709 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
4710 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
4711 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
4712 this case.
4713 [Steve Henson]

4769
4770 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4771 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat

4773 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4774 [Bodo Moeller]
4775
4776 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4777 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4778 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4779 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4780 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4781
4782 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4783 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4784 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4785 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4786 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4787 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4788 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4789 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4790 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

4808 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
4809 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
4810 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing

4812 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.

4883 and get fix the header length calculation.
4884 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,

4886 Steve Henson]
4887
Bodo Möller5574e0e2002-08-02 11:48:15 +00004888 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
4889 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
4890 assertions could call abort()).
4891 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]

Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00004893 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
4894
4895 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4896 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4897 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4898 supplied buffer.
4899 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00004900
Lutz Jänicke063a8902002-07-10 06:41:55 +00004901 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
4902 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
4903 by the selection routines (PR #130).
4904 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4905
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00004906 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
4907 [Nils Larsch]
4908
Bodo Möllerc21506b2002-06-14 12:21:11 +00004909 *) New option
4910 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
4911 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
4912 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
4913
4914 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
4915 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
4916 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
4917 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
4918 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
4919 applications.
4920 [Bodo Moeller]
4921
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00004922 *) Changes in security patch:
4923
4924 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
4925 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
4926 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
4927 F30602-01-2-0537.
4928
4929 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4930 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4931 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00004932 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00004933 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4934
4935 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
4936 happen in practice.
4937 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4938
4939 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00004940 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00004941 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
4942
4943 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00004944 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00004945 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4946
4947 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00004948 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)

4950
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00004951 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00004952
Bodo Möller8df61b52002-04-26 08:28:34 +00004953 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
4954 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
4955 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
4956
Bodo Möller1064aca2002-04-17 09:31:34 +00004957 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
4958 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4959
Lutz Jänicke2940a122002-04-15 09:55:40 +00004960 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
4961 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
4962 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
4963 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
4964 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
4965 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
4966 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4967
Bodo Möller82b0bf02002-04-13 22:47:20 +00004968 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
4969 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
4970 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
4971 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
4972 [Bodo Moeller]
4973
4974 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
4975 [Bodo Moeller]
4976
4977 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
4978 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
4979 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
4980 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4981 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4982 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4983
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00004984 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4985 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4986 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4987 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4988 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4989 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4990
4991 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4992 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4993 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4994 BN_generate_prime().)
4995
4996 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4997 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4998 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4999 better.
5000 [Bodo Moeller]
5001
5002 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
5003 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
5004 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5005
5006 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
5007 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
5008 when using non-blocking I/O.
5009 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
5010
5011 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
5012 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
5013
5014 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
5015 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
5016 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5017
5018 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
5019 configuration for the versions before that.
5020 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
5021
5022 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
5023 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
5024 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
5025 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
5026 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5027
5028 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
5029 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
5030 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
5031 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5032
5033 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
5034 value is 0.
5035 [Richard Levitte]
5036
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00005037 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
5038 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5039 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5040
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00005041 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
5042 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
5043
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00005044 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
5045 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
5046 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
5047 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
5048 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
5049 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
5050 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
5051 session cache.
5052
5053 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
5054 using a local variable.
5055 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
5056
5057 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
5058 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
5059 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5060
5061 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
5062 [Richard Levitte]
5063
5064 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
5065 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
5066
5067 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
5068 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
5069 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
5070
5071 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
5072
5073 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
5074 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
5075 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
5076 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
5077 [Bodo Moeller]
5078
5079 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
5080 present.
5081 [Steve Henson]
5082
5083 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
5084 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
5085 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
5086 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
5087 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
5088
5089 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
5090 returns early because it has nothing to do.
5091 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5092
5093 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5094 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
5095 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5096
5097 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5098 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
5099 (Use engine 'keyclient')
5100 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
5101
5102 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
5103 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
5104 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
5105 modules).
5106 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
5107
5108 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5109 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
5110 from 0.9.7.
5111 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
5112
5113 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5114 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
5115 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5116 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
5117
5118 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5119 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
5120 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5121 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
5122
5123 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
5124 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
5125
5126 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
5127 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
5128 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
5129 [Bodo Moeller]
5130
5131 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
5132 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
5133 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
5134 become invalid.
5135 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
5136
5137 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
5138 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
5139 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
5140 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
5141 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
5142 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
5143 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
5144 [Bodo Moeller]
5145
5146 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
5147 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
5148 one of the SSL handshake functions.
5149 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
5150
5151 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
5152 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
5153 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
5154 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
5155 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
5156 the client will at least see that alert.
5157 [Bodo Moeller]
5158
5159 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
5160 correctly.
5161 [Bodo Moeller]
5162
5163 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
5164 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
5165 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5166
5167 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
5168 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
5169 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
5170 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
5171 HelloRequest.
5172
5173 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
5174 before just sending a HelloRequest.
5175 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
5176
5177 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
5178 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
5179 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
5180 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
5181 may leak via logfiles.)
5182
5183 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
5184 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
5185 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
5186 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
5187 the legal range.
5188 [Bodo Moeller]
5189
5190 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
5191 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5192 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5193
5194 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
5195 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
5196 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
5197 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
5198 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
5199 [Bodo Moeller]
5200
5201 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
5202 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
5203
5204 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
5205 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
5206 followed by modular reduction.
5207 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
5208
5209 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
5210 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
5211 [Bodo Moeller]
5212
5213 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
5214 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
5215 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
5216 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
5217 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5218
5219 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
5220 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5221
5222 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
5223 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
5224 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5225
5226 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
5227 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
5228 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
5229 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
5230 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
5231 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
5232 automatically.
5233 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
5234
5235 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
5236 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
5237 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
5238 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
5239 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
5240
5241 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
5242 [Andy Polyakov]
5243
5244 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
5245 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
5246 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
5247 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
5248 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
5249 to allow the necessary settings.
5250 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5251
5252 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
5253 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
5254 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
5255 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
5256 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5257
5258 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
5259 dh->length and always used
5260
5261 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
5262
5263 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
5264 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
5265 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
5266 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
5267 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
5268 dh->length.
5269
5270 So switch back to
5271
5272 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
5273
5274 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
5275 otherwise.
5276 [Bodo Moeller]
5277
5278 *) In
5279
5280 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
5281 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
5282 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
5283 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
5284
5285 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
5286 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
5287 always reject numbers >= n.
5288 [Bodo Moeller]
5289
5290 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
5291 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
5292 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
5293 variable) is not atomic.
5294 [Bodo Moeller]
5295
5296 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
5297 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
5298 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
5299 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
5300
5301 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
5302 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
5303
5304 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
5305 little-endian MIPS.
5306 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
5307
5308 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
5309 [Richard Levitte]
5310
5311 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
5312
5313 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
5314 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
5315 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
5316 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
5317 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
5318 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
5319 to traverse all of 'state'.
5320
5321 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
5322 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
5323 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
5324
5325 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
5326 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
5327
5328 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
5329 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
5330 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
5331 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
5332 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
5333 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
5334 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
5335 further strengthens the PRNG.
5336 [Bodo Moeller]
5337
5338 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
5339 [Andy Polyakov]
5340
5341 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
5342 an error message in this case.
5343 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5344
5345 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
5346 [Steve Henson]
5347
5348 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
5349 positive and less than q.
5350 [Bodo Moeller]
5351
5352 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
5353 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
5354 that itself.
5355 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
5356
5357 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
5358 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
5359 [Bodo Moeller]
5360
5361 *) Fix OAEP check.
5362 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
5363
5364 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
5365 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
5366 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
5367 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
5368 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
5369 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
5370 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
5371 paper.)
5372
5373 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
5374 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
5375 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
5376 detect the supposedly ignored error.
5377
5378 Both problems are now fixed.
5379 [Bodo Moeller]
5380
5381 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
5382 (previously it was 1024).
5383 [Bodo Moeller]
5384
5385 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
5386 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
5387 [Steve Henson]
5388
5389 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
5390 [Steve Henson]
5391
5392 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
5393 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
5394 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
5395 [Steve Henson]
5396
5397 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
5398 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
5399 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
5400 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
5401 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
5402 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
5403 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
5404 environment variables.
5405
5406 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
5407 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
5408 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
5409 [Bodo Moeller]
5410
5411 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
5412 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
5413 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
5414 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
5415 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
5416 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
5417 [Bodo Moeller]
5418
5419 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
5420 versions of 'test'.
5421 [Bodo Moeller]
5422
5423 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
5424
5425 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
5426 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
5427
5428 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
5429 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
5430 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
5431 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
5432 CygWin.
5433 [Richard Levitte]
5434
5435 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
5436 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
5437 amount of data available.
5438 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
5439 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5440
5441 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
5442 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
5443 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
5444 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
5445 [Bodo Moeller]
5446
5447 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
5448 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
5449 and UnixWare.
5450 [Richard Levitte]
5451
5452 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
5453 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
5454 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
5455 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
5456 [Ulf Moeller]
5457
5458 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
5459 [Andy Polyakov]
5460
5461 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
5462 [Richard Levitte]
5463
5464 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
5465 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
5466 [Steve Henson]
5467 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5468
5469 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
5470 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
5471 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
5472 (but broken) behaviour.
5473 [Steve Henson]
5474
5475 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
5476 it when found.
5477 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
5478
5479 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
5480 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
5481 [Bodo Moeller]
5482
5483 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
5484 did not exist.
5485 [Bodo Moeller]
5486
5487 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
5488 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
5489
5490 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
5491 [Richard Levitte]
5492
5493 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
5494 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
5495 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
5496
5497 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
5498 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
5499 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
5500 [Steve Henson]
5501
5502 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
5503 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
5504 [Ulf Moeller]
5505
5506 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
5507 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
5508
5509 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
5510
5511 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
5512
5513 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
5514 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
5515 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
5516 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
5517 [Bodo Moeller]
5518
5519 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
5520 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5521
5522 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
5523 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
5524 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5525
5526 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
5527 was empty.
5528 [Steve Henson]
5529 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5530
5531 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
5532 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
5533 but the code is actually correct.
5534 [Steve Henson]
5535
5536 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
5537 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
5538 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
5539 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
5540 and leaves the highest bit random.
5541 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
5542
5543 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
5544 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
5545 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
5546 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
5547 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
5548 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
5549 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
5550 [Bodo Moeller]
5551
5552 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
5553 [Ulf Moeller]
5554
5555 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
5556 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
5557 [Steve Henson]
5558
5559 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
5560 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
5561 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
5562 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
5563 headers.
5564 [Richard Levitte]
5565
5566 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
5567 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
5568 and break the signature.
5569 [Steve Henson]
5570 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5571
5572 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
5573 DH ciphersuites.
5574 [Steve Henson]
5575
5576 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
5577 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
5578 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
5579 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
5580 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
5581 [Bodo Moeller]
5582
5583 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
5584 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5585
5586 *) ./config script fixes.
5587 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
5588
5589 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
5590 [Bodo Moeller]
5591
5592 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
5593 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
5594 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
5595 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
5596 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
5597
5598 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
5599 call failed, free the DSA structure.
5600 [Bodo Moeller]
5601
5602 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
5603 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
5604 [Steve Henson]
5605
5606 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
5607 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
5608 when writing a 32767 byte record.
5609 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
5610
5611 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
5612 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
5613
5614 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
5615 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
5616 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
5617 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
5618 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
5619
5620 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
5621 [Bodo Moeller]
5622
5623 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
5624 [Ulf Möller]
5625
5626 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
5627 [Ulf Möller]
5628
5629 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
5630 [Bodo Moeller]
5631
5632 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
5633 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
5634 [Bodo Moeller]
5635
5636 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
5637 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
5638 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
5639 result of the server certificate verification.)
5640 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5641
5642 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
5643 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
5644 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
5645 [Bodo Moeller]
5646
5647 *) Fix SSL_peek:
5648 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
5649 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
5650 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
5651 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
5652 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
5653 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
5654 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
5655 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
5656 [Bodo Moeller]
5657
5658 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
5659 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
5660 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
5661 happening the other way round.
5662 [Geoff Thorpe]
5663
5664 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
5665 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
5666 [Bodo Moeller]
5667
5668 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
5669 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
5670 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
5671 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
5672 [Richard Levitte]
5673
5674 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
5675 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
5676
5677 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
5678
5679 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
5680 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
5681 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
5682 that.
5683
5684 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
5685
5686 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
5687
5688 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
5689 static ones.
5690 [Richard Levitte]
5691
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00005692 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
5693
5694 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
5695 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
5696 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
5697 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
5698 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
5699
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00005700 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
5701 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
5702 matter what.
5703 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00005704
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00005705 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
5706 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5707
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00005708 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00005709
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00005710 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
5711 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
5712 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
5713 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
5714 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00005715 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00005716 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
5717 by the Finished messages.
5718 [Bodo Moeller]
5719
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00005720 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
5721 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
5722
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00005723 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
5724 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
5725 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
5726 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
5727 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
5728 appropriately.
5729 [Steve Henson]
5730
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00005731 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
5732 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
5733 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
5734 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
5735 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
5736 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
5737 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
5738 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
5739 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
5740 together.
5741 [Steve Henson]
5742
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00005743 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
5744 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
5745 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
5746 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
5747
5748 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
5749 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
5750 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
5751 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
5752 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
5753 the answer.
5754
5755 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
5756 been tested well enough.

5764
Dr. Stephen Henson730e37e2000-09-18 12:30:57 +00005765 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
5766 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
5767 include zero length content when signing messages.
5768 [Steve Henson]
5769
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00005770 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR

5775 [Richard Levitte]
5776
Ulf Möller1d84fd62000-09-14 18:37:53 +00005777 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
5778 wrong sign.
5779 [Ulf Möller]
5780
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00005781 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
5782 packages. The default package contains applications, application
5783 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
5784 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
5785 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
5786 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
5787 [Richard Levitte]
5788
Richard Levittecc995262000-09-14 13:11:56 +00005789 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.

5794
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00005795 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a

Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00005799 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
5800 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
5801 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
5802 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
5803 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
5804 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
5805 just makes things more complicated.)
5806 [Bodo Moeller]
5807
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00005808 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
5809 from EGD.
5810 [Ben Laurie]
5811
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +00005812 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
5813 work better on such systems.
5814 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
5815
Dr. Stephen Henson84b65342000-09-07 23:14:26 +00005816 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
5817 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
5818 keyid to the certificates aux info.
5819 [Steve Henson]
5820
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +00005821 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
5822 if there was more than one signature.
5823 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
5824
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +00005825 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
5826 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
5827 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
5828 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
5829 [Richard Levitte]
5830
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005831 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
5832 rather than always using the current time.
5833 [Steve Henson]
5834
5835 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
5836 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
5837 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
5838 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
5839 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
5840 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005841
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005842 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
5843 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005844
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005845 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005846
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005847 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
5848 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
5849 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
5850 the same hash value.
5851
5852 As a result various functions (which were all internal
5853 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
5854 structure. This will break anything that messed round
5855 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005856
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005857 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
5858 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005859
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005860 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
5861 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
5862 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
5863 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
5864 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
5865 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
5866 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005867
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005868 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
5869
5870 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
5871 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
5872 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
5873 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
5874 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
5875 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
5876 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
5877 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
5878
5879 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
5880 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5881
5882 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
5883 to customise the verify behaviour.
5884 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005885
Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00005886 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
5887 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
5888 [Steve Henson]
5889
5890 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
5891 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
5892 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
5893 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
5894 request is improperly encoded.
5895 [Steve Henson]
5896
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00005897 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call

5899 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00005900

5907 [Bodo Moeller]
5908
5909 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are

5912 [Bodo Moeller]
5913
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +00005914 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be

5929 [Steve Henson]
5930
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00005931 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a

5933 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
5934 encode and decode it manually.

5945
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00005946 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
5947 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
5948 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
5949 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
5950 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
5951 [Steve Henson]
5952
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00005953 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
5954 [Richard Levitte]
5955
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00005956 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
5957 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
5958 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
5959
5960 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
5961 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
5962 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
5963 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
5964 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
5965 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
5966 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
5967 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
5968
5969 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
5970 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
5971
5972 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
5973
5974 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
5975 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
5976 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE

5990 [Richard Levitte]
5991
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00005992 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5993 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5994 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5995 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5996 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5997 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5998 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5999 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
6000 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
6001 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
6002 short or long names are found.
6003 [Steve Henson]

Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00006008 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
6009 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
6010 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
6011 version rollback attacks was not effective.
6012
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00006013 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
6014 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
6015 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
6016 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
6017 [Bodo Moeller]
6018
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00006019 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl

6021 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
6022 [Richard Levitte]
6023
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00006024 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
6025 these print out strings and name structures based on various
6026 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
6027 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
6028 to allow the various flags to be set.
6029 [Steve Henson]
6030
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00006031 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
6032 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
6033 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
6034 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
6035 dates to be checked.
6036 [Steve Henson]
6037
6038 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
6039 negative public key encodings) on by default,
6040 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
6041 [Steve Henson]
6042
6043 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
6044 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
6045 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
6046 [Steve Henson]
6047
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +00006048 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),

6053 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
6054 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
6055 are always statically linked for now, but there are
6056 preparations for dynamic linking in place.

6067 [Steve Henson]
6068
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00006069 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
6070 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
6071 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
6072 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
6073 form signing output easier to verify.
6074 [Steve Henson]
6075
6076 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
6077 [Steve Henson]
6078
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00006079 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
6080 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
6081 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
6082 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
6083 are needed because all other string types have virtually
6084 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
6085 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
6086 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
6087 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
6088 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
6089 [Steve Henson]
6090
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00006091 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
6092
6093 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
6094 the syntax given in objects.README.
6095 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
6096 obj_mac.h.
6097 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
6098 obj_mac.h.
6099
6100 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
6101 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
6102 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
6103 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
6104 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
6105 consistent name changes.

Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00006108 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
6109 [Bodo Moeller]
6110
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00006111 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00006112 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
6113 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
6114 environment variable, or the default random state file.

6116
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00006117 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
6118 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
6119 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
6120 of safestack.h .
6121 [Steve Henson]
6122
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00006123 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
6124 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
6125 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
6126 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
6127 [Steve Henson]
6128
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00006129 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
6130 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
6131 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
6132 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
6133 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
6134 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
6135 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
6136 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
6137 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00006138 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
6139 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.

6141
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00006142 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
6143 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
6144 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
6145 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
6146 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
6147 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
6148 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
6149 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
6150 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
6151 algorithm to openssl-dev.
6152 [Steve Henson]
6153
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00006154 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
6155 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
6156 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
6157 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
6158
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00006159 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
6160 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
6161 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
6162 omit any duplicate addresses.
6163 [Steve Henson]
6164
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00006165 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
6166 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
6167 [Bodo Moeller]
6168
6169 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
6170 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
6171 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
6172 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
6173 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
6174 [Bodo Moeller]
6175
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00006176 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
6177 software:
6178 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
6179 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
6180 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
6181 Free => OPENSSL_free
6182 [Richard Levitte]
6183
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00006184 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
6185 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).

6190
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00006191 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
6192 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
6193 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
6194 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
6195 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
6196 approach.
6197 [Geoff Thorpe]
6198
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00006199 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
6200 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
6201 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
6202 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
6203 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
6204 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
6205 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
6206 [Geoff Thorpe]
6207
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00006208 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
6209 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
6210 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
6211 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
6212 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
6213 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
6214 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
6215 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
6216 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
6217 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
6218 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
6219 [Bodo Moeller]
6220
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00006221 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
6222 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
6223 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
6224 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
6225 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
6226
6227 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
6228 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
6229 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
6230 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
6231 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
6232
6233 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
6234 ciphers.
6235
6236 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00006237 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
6238 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
6239 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
6240
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00006241 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
6242
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00006243 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
6244 of macros.
6245
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00006246 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
6247 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
6248 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
6249 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00006250
6251 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
6252 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
6253 any installed hardware versions can.

6255
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00006256 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
6257 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
6258 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
6259 number.
6260 [Bodo Moeller]
6261
6262 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
6263 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
6264 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
6265 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).

6270 [Steve Henson]
6271
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00006272 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
6273 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
6274 [Richard Levitte]
6275
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00006276 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
6277 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
6278 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
6279 features.

Dr. Stephen Henson0cb957a2000-05-04 23:03:49 +00006285 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was

6289
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00006290 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
6291 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
6292 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
6293 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
6294 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
6295 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
6296 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
6297 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
6298 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
6299 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
6300 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.

Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00006308 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
6309 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state

6316
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00006317 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
6318 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
6319 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
6320 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
6321 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
6322 [Geoff Thorpe]
6323
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00006324 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
6325 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
6326 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
6327 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
6328 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
6329 [Geoff Thorpe]
6330
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00006331 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like

6333 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
6334 may not be NULL.

6336
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00006337 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
6338 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
6339 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
6340 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
6341 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
6342 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
6343 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
6344 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
6345 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
6346 or "the configuration storage API"...
6347
6348 The new configuration file reading functions are:

Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00006355 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00006356
6357 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
6358 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
6359 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
6360 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
6361 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
6362 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
6363 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
6364
6365 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
6366 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
6367 [Richard Levitte]
6368
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00006369 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
6370 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
6371 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional

6397 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()

Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00006411 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
6412 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00006413 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00006414 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00006415 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.

6429 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
6430 its own key.
6431 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
6432 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
6433 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining

6440 does not suppress any output.
6441 [Richard Levitte]
6442
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00006443 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00006444 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
6445 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
6446 with all the associated security issues.
6447
6448 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
6449 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
6450 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
6451 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
6452 use the value in the default purpose.
6453 [Steve Henson]
6454
Dr. Stephen Henson48fe0ee2000-03-07 01:03:33 +00006455 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
6456 and fix a memory leak.
6457 [Steve Henson]
6458
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00006459 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
6460 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
6461 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
6462 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
6463 [Bodo Moeller]
6464
Bodo Möller0a150c52000-03-04 01:36:53 +00006465 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
6466 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
6467 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
6468 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
6469 [Bodo Moeller]
6470
Bodo Möller41918452000-03-03 22:18:19 +00006471 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
6472 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
6473 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
6474 [Bodo Moeller]
6475
6476 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
6477 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
6478 [Bodo Moeller]
6479
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00006480 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
6481 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
6482 which was free.
6483 [Steve Henson]
6484
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00006485 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
6486 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
6487 [Bodo Moeller]
6488
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00006489 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
6490 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
6491 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
6492 [Bodo Moeller]
6493
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00006494 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
6495 number generation fails.
6496 [Bodo Moeller]
6497
Bodo Möller55f7d652000-03-01 07:57:25 +00006498 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
6499 [Bodo Moeller]
6500
Ralf S. Engelschall010712f2000-02-29 15:29:02 +00006501 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
6502 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
6503
Ulf Möller2da0c112000-02-28 19:16:41 +00006504 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
6505 [Ulf Möller]
6506
Ulf Möllera4709b32000-02-28 19:14:46 +00006507 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
6508 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
6509
6510 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.

Richard Levitte74cdf6f2000-02-28 11:59:02 +00006513 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00006514
Dr. Stephen Henson82b93182000-02-28 14:11:19 +00006515 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
6516 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
6517 [Steve Henson]
6518
Dr. Stephen Henson587bb0e2000-02-27 17:34:30 +00006519 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
6520 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
6521
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00006522 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
Andy Polyakova5770be2000-02-27 02:34:37 +00006523 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00006524 [Ulf Möller]
6525
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00006526 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
6527 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
6528 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
6529 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
6530 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
6531 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
6532
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00006533 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
6534 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
6535 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
6536 for example.
6537 [Steve Henson]
6538
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00006539 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
6540 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
6541 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
6542 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
6543 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
6544 counter, some don't.)
6545 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
6546 counters or duplicate objects.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc7cb16a2000-02-26 01:55:33 +00006547 [Steve Henson]
6548
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00006549 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
6550 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
6551 [Steve Henson]
6552
Ulf Möller505b5a02000-02-24 22:57:42 +00006553 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
6554 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
6555 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
6556
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00006557 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
6558 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
6559 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
6560 or -rand.
6561 [Ulf Möller]
6562
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00006563 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
6564 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
6565 [Steve Henson]
6566
6567 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
6568 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
6569 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
6570 cipher list.
6571 [Steve Henson]
6572
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00006573 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
6574 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
6575 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
6576 [Steve Henson]
6577
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00006578 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
6579 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
6580 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
6581 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
6582 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
6583 should work without changes.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00006584 [Richard Levitte]
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00006585
6586 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
6587 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
6588 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
6589 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
6590 must be defined. E.g.,
6591 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
6592 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
6593 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00006594 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00006595
Bodo Möllerb35e9052000-02-20 23:04:06 +00006596 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
6597 record layer.
6598 [Bodo Moeller]
6599
Dr. Stephen Hensond754b382000-02-20 18:27:23 +00006600 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
6601 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
6602 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
6603 [Steve Henson]
6604
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00006605 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
6606 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
6607 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
6608 request header lines. Some software needs this.
6609 [Steve Henson]
6610
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00006611 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
6612 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
6613 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
6614 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
6615 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
6616 is prompted for as usual.
6617 [Steve Henson]
6618
Ben Lauriebd03b992000-02-16 22:15:39 +00006619 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
6620 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
6621 autodetect the card and use it if present.
6622 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
6623
Dr. Stephen Hensonde469ef2000-02-15 14:19:44 +00006624 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
6625 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
6626 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
6627 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
6628 [Steve Henson]
6629
Andy Polyakovbcba6cc2000-02-12 23:33:01 +00006630 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
6631 [Andy Polyakov]
6632
Dr. Stephen Hensond13e4eb2000-02-12 03:03:04 +00006633 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
6634 of seed file.
6635 [Steve Henson]
6636
Bodo Möller3ebf0be2000-02-11 17:18:50 +00006637 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
Bodo Möllerbb325c72000-02-10 21:50:52 +00006638 [Bodo Moeller]
6639
Dr. Stephen Hensonf07fb9b2000-02-08 01:34:59 +00006640 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
6641 [Steve Henson]
6642
Ulf Möllercae55bf2000-02-06 15:56:59 +00006643 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
6644 bits.
6645 [Ulf Möller]
6646
6647 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
6648 [Ulf Möller]
6649
Andy Polyakov0fad6cb2000-02-06 11:15:20 +00006650 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
6651 [Andy Polyakov]
6652
Ulf Möller4a6222d2000-02-06 00:25:39 +00006653 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
6654 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
6655 [Ulf Möller]
6656
Dr. Stephen Henson66430202000-02-05 21:07:56 +00006657 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
6658 options to produce them.
6659 [Steve Henson]
6660
Ulf Möller9b141122000-02-05 14:17:32 +00006661 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
6662 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
6663 [Ulf Möller]
6664
6665 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
6666 for p == 0.
6667 [Ulf Möller]
6668
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00006669 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
6670 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
6671 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
6672 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
6673 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
6674 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
6675 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
6676 [Steve Henson]
6677
Dr. Stephen Henson82fc1d92000-02-03 02:56:48 +00006678 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
6679 [Steve Henson]
6680
Bodo Möllere74231e2000-02-02 21:20:44 +00006681 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
6682 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
6683 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
6684 [Bodo Moeller]
6685
Bodo Möller2c5fe5b2000-02-01 07:50:42 +00006686 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
Ulf Möller8efb6012000-02-01 02:21:16 +00006687 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
6688
Ulf Möller98d0b2e2000-01-30 23:34:33 +00006689 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
6690 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
6691 [Ulf Möller]
6692
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006693 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
6694 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
6695 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
6696 has already seen).
6697 [Bodo Moeller]
6698
6699 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
6700 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
6701
6702 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
6703 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
6704 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
6705 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
6706 generation becomes much faster.
6707
6708 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00006709 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
6710 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
6711 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
6712 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
6713 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
6714 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
6715 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
6716 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
6717 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006718 [Bodo Moeller]
6719
Bodo Möller7865b872000-01-30 02:40:38 +00006720 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006721 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
6722 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
6723 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00006724 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
6725 trial division stage.

6730 [Steve Henson]
6731
Dr. Stephen Henson90644dd2000-01-28 01:35:31 +00006732 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
6733 [Steve Henson]
6734
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00006735 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().

6747 [Bodo Moeller]
6748
Bodo Möllera46faa22000-01-24 16:02:29 +00006749 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00006777 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00006781 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
6782 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
6783 wrong.
6784
6785 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
6786 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
6787 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
6788
6789 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
6790 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
6791 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
6792 an error is flagged.
6793
6794 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
6795 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
6796 the readability was also increased :-)

Dr. Stephen Henson81004902000-01-21 02:42:14 +00006799 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
6800 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
6801 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
6802 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
6803 as the root CA.

6805
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00006806 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
6807 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
6808 [Steve Henson]
6809
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00006810 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
6811 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
6812 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
6813 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
6814 instead.
6815
6816 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
6817 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
6818 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
6819 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00006820 because they handle more complex structures.)

Ulf Mölleraa82db42000-01-16 21:10:00 +00006823 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl

Ulf Möllereb952082000-01-13 20:59:17 +00006828 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00006829 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
6830 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00006831 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00006832 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
6833 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
6834 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).

Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00006837 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
6838 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006839 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00006840 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006841 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.

6846
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00006847 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
6848 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00006849 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
6850 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
6851 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
6852 to use this.
6853
6854 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
6855 code.
6856 [Steve Henson]
6857
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00006858 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
6859 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
6860 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
6861 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
6862 [Steve Henson]
6863
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006864 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
6865 [Ulf Möller]
6866
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00006867 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
6868 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
6869 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
6870 international characters are used.
6871
6872 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
6873 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
6874 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
6875 in ASN1 order.
6876 [Steve Henson]
6877
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006878 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
6879 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
6880 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
6881 request.
6882
6883 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
6884 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
6885 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
6886 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006887 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006888 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
6889
6890 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
6891 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
6892 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006893 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006894
6895 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
6896 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
6897 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
6898 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
6899 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
6900 types at all.
6901 [Steve Henson]
6902
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00006903 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
6904 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
6905 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
6906 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
6907 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
6908
6909 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
6910 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
6911 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
6912 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.

6914
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00006915 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
6916 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006917 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00006918 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
6919 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
6920 SHA1.
6921 [Andy Polyakov]
6922
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00006923 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
6924 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
6925 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
6926 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
6927 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
6928 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
6929 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
6930 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
6931
6932 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
6933 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00006934 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.

6936
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00006937 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
6938 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
6939 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
6940 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
6941 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
6942 support to pkcs8 application.
6943 [Steve Henson]
6944
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00006945 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
6946 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
6947 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
6948 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
6949 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
6950 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
6951 [Bodo Moeller]
6952
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00006953 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
6954 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
6955 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
6956 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
6957 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
6958 consistency.
6959 [Bodo Moeller]
6960
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00006961 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
6962 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
6963 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
6964 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
6965 example.
6966 [Steve Henson]
6967
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00006968 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
6969 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
6970 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
6971 and any application specific purposes.
6972
6973 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6974 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6975 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6976 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00006977 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00006978 if the certificate is self signed.
6979 [Steve Henson]
6980
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00006981 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6982 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6983 [Steve Henson]
6984
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00006985 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6986 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00006987 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00006988 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6989 [Steve Henson]
6990
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00006991 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6992 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6993 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6994 Update documentation.
6995 [Steve Henson]
6996
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00006997 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6998 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00006999 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00007000 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
7001 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
7002 [Steve Henson]
7003
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00007004 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS

7007
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00007008 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
7009 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
7010 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00007011 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
7012 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
7013 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00007014 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
7015 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
7016 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
7017 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00007018
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00007019 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
7020
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007021 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
7022 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
7023 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
7024 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
7025 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00007026
7027 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
7028 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00007029 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
7030 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
7031 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
7032 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
7033 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
7034 request additional information:
7035 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
7036 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00007037
7038 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
7039 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
7040 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
7041 options.
7042
7043 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
7044 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
7045
7046 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
7047 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
7048 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
7049
7050 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.

Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00007053 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
7054 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
7055 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature

7058
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00007059 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,

7062
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00007063 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
7064 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
7065 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
7066 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
7067 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
7068 included in OpenSSL.
7069 [Steve Henson]
7070
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00007071 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
7072 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
7073 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
7074 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
7075 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
7076 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
7077 [Bodo Moeller]
7078
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00007079 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
7080 PKCS12 structure.
7081 [Steve Henson]
7082
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00007083 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
7084 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
7085 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
7086 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
7087 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
7088 structure.
7089 [Steve Henson]
7090
7091 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
7092 need initialising.
7093 [Steve Henson]
7094
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00007095 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
7096 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
7097 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
7098 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
7099 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
7100 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
7101 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
7102 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
7103 be maintained manually.
7104
7105 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
7106 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
7107 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
7108 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
7109 work because people forget to call this function]
7110 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
7111 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
7112 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().

7114
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00007115 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
7116 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
7117 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
7118 should be discouraged from doing it.
7119 [Ben Laurie]
7120
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00007121 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
7122 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
7123 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
7124 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
7125 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
7126 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
7127 [Steve Henson]
7128
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00007129 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
7130 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
7131 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00007132
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00007133 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00007134 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
7135 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00007136
7137 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
7138 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
7139 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
7140 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
7141 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
7142 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00007143
7144 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
7145 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
7146 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00007147
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00007148 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
7149 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
7150 and vice versa.
7151
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00007152 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
7153 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
7154 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
7155 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00007156 [Steve Henson]
7157
7158 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00007159 [Steve Henson]
7160
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00007161 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
7162 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
7163 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
7164 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
7165 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007166 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00007167 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
7168 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
7169 keys so we should be OK.
7170
7171 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
7172 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
7173 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
7174 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
7175 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
7176 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007177 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00007178
7179 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
7180 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
7181 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
7182
7183 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00007184 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
7185 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
7186 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
7187 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
7188 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
7189 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00007190 [Steve Henson]
7191
7192 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
7193 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
7194 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
7195 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
7196 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
7197 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
7198 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
7199 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
7200 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
7201 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
7202 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
7203 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
7204 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
7205 [Steve Henson]
7206
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00007207 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
7208 [Steve Henson]
7209
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00007210 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
7211 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
7212 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
7213 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
7214 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
7215 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
7216 single self signed certificate. This means that:
7217 openssl verify ss.pem
7218 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
7219 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
7220 is OK.
7221 [Steve Henson]
7222
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00007223 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
7224 (and add it to external session representation).
7225 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
7226 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
7227 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
7228 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
7229 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
7230 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
7231 security holes.

7233
Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00007234 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
7235 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
7236 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.

Dr. Stephen Hensonfd699ac1999-11-16 02:49:25 +00007239 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
7240 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
7241 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
7242 [Steve Henson]
7243
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00007244 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
7245 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
7246 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
7247 code.
7248 [Steve Henson]
7249
Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00007250 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
7251 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.

7253
Dr. Stephen Henson06556a11999-11-14 23:10:50 +00007254 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
7255 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
7256 certificate auxiliary information.
7257 [Steve Henson]
7258
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00007259 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
7260 the 'enc' command.
7261 [Steve Henson]
7262
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00007263 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
7264 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00007265 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
7266 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
7267 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
7268 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
7269 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00007270 [Richard Levitte]
7271
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00007272 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
Dr. Stephen Henson954ef7e1999-11-12 01:42:25 +00007273 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
7274 [Steve Henson]
7275
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00007276 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
7277 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
7278 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
7279 manpages and fix a few bugs.
7280 [Steve Henson]
7281
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00007282 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
7283 [Steve Henson]
7284
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00007285 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
7286 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
7287 [Steve Henson]
7288
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00007289 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
7290 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
7291 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
7292 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
7293 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007294 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00007295 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
7296 using the new 'x509' options.
7297
7298 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
7299 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
7300 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
7301 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
7302 for all purposes.
7303 [Steve Henson]
7304
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00007305 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
7306 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
7307 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
7308 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
7309 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
Mark J. Coxce2c95b1999-11-03 14:10:10 +00007310 [Mark Cox]
7311
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00007312 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
7313 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
7314 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
7315 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
7316 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007317 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00007318 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
7319 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
7320 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
7321 the key length and effective key length are equal.
7322 [Steve Henson]
7323
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00007324 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
7325 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
7326 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
7327 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
7328 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
7329 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
7330 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
7331 [Steve Henson]
7332
7333 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
7334 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
7335 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
7336 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
7337 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
7338 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
7339 openssl.cnf for more info.
7340 [Steve Henson]
7341
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00007342 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00007343 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00007344 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
7345 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
7346 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
7347 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
7348 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
7349 md should be large enough anyway.
7350 [Bodo Moeller]
7351
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007352 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
7353 for handling the random seed file.
7354
7355 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
7356 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007357 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007358 s_client,
7359 s_server,
7360 x509 (when signing).
7361 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
7362 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00007363 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007364
7365 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007366 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007367 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007368 that support '-rand'.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007369 [Bodo Moeller]
7370
7371 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
7372 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
7373 [Bodo Moeller]
7374
7375 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
7376 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
7377 [Bill Perry]
7378
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00007379 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
7380 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
7381 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
7382 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
7383 is suitable.
7384 [Steve Henson]
7385
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00007386 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
7387 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
7388 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
7389 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
7390 [Steve Henson]
7391
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00007392 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
7393 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
7394 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
7395 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
7396 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
7397 print out all the purposes.
7398 [Steve Henson]
7399
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00007400 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
7401 functions.
7402 [Steve Henson]
7403
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00007404 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
7405 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
7406 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
7407 single function call.
7408 [Steve Henson]
7409
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00007410 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
7411 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
7412 [Andy Polyakov]
7413
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00007414 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
7415 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
7416 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
7417 [Steve Henson]
7418
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00007419 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
7420 when producing the local key id.
7421 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7422
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00007423 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
7424 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
7425 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
7426 "server.pem".
7427 [Steve Henson]
7428
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00007429 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
7430 a public key to be input or output. For example:
7431 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
7432 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.

7434
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00007435 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
7436 in the message. This was handled by allowing
7437 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
7438 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
7439
7440 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
7441 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
7442 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.

7444
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00007445 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
7446 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
7447 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
7448 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
7449 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
7450 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
7451 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
7452 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
7453 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
7454 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
7455 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
7456 trivial: move one line.
7457 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
7458
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00007459 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
7460 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
7461 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
7462 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
7463 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
7464 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
7465 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
7466 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
7467 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
7468 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
7469 with an event loop for example.
7470 [Steve Henson]
7471
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00007472 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
7473 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
7474 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
7475 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
7476 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
7477 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
7478 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
7479 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
7480 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
7481 [Steve Henson]
7482
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00007483 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
7484 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
7485 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007486 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00007487 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
7488 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
7489 [Steve Henson]
7490
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00007491 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
7492 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
7493 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
7494 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
7495
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00007496 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
7497 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
7498 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
7499 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
7500 key generation.

7506
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00007507 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
7508 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
7509 [Steve Henson]
7510
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00007511 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
7512 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
7513 [Steve Henson]
7514
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00007515 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
7516 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
7517 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
7518 [Bodo Moeller]
7519
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00007520 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
7521 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
7522 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
7523 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
7524 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
7525 [Steve Henson]
7526
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00007527 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
7528 [Andy Polyakov]
7529
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00007530 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
7531 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
7532 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
7533 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
7534 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
7535 in ca.
7536 [Steve Henson]
7537
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00007538 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
7539 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
7540 1.OU="Unit name 1"
7541 2.OU="Unit name 2"
7542 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
7543 [Steve Henson]
7544
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00007545 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
7546 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
7547 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
7548 are otherwise ignored at present.
7549 [Steve Henson]
7550
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00007551 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00007552 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00007553 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
7554 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
7555 copied until the next read.
7556 [Steve Henson]
7557
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00007558 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
7559 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
7560 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
7561 [Steve Henson]
7562
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00007563 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
7564 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
7565 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
7566 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
7567 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
7568 associated functions.
7569 [Steve Henson]
7570
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00007571 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
7572 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
7573 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
7574 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
7575 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
7576 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
7577 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
7578 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
7579 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007580 memory BIOs.

7582
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00007583 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
7584 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
7585 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
7586 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
7587 [Bodo Moeller]
7588
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00007589 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
7590 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
7591 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
7592 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
7593 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
7594 functionality.
7595 [Steve Henson]
7596
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00007597 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
7598 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
7599 under Win32.
7600 [Steve Henson]
7601
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00007602 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00007603 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow

7618
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00007619 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
7620 program.
7621 [Steve Henson]
7622
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00007623 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
7624 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
7625 DH parameters contain its length).
7626
7627 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
7628 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
7629 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
7630 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
7631 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
7632 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
7633 utter importance to use
7634 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7635 or
7636 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7637 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
7638 attacks may become possible!
7639 [Bodo Moeller]
7640
7641 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
7642 [Bodo Moeller]
7643
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00007644 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
7645 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
7646 [Steve Henson]
7647
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00007648 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
7649 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
7650 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
7651 or long name.
7652 [Steve Henson]
7653
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00007654 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
7655 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
7656 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
7657 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00007658 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
7659 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
7660 private key operations.

7662

7665
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00007666 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
7667 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
7668 to
7669 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
7670 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
7671 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
7672 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
7673 the password callback is called.

Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00007675
7676 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
7677
7678 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
7679 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
7680 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
7681 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
7682 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
7683 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
7684 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00007685
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00007686 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...

7688 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00007689 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an

7699 [Ulf Möller]
7700
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00007701 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
7702 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
7703 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all

7706
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00007707 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections

7731
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00007732 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
7733 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
7734
7735 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
7736 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
7737 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
7738
7739 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
7740 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
7741 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
7742 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
7743 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
7744 this bug.

7752 "off" is now the default.
7753 The library internally uses
7754 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
7755 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
7756 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
7757
7758 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
7759 even the default) are now avoided.

7761 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
7762 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
7763 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00007764
7765 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
7766
7767 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
7768 extensions.

7770
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00007771 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
7772 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
7773 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00007774 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00007775
7776 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
7777 a single record has been written.
7778 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
7779 retries use the same buffer location.

7781 copied!)
7782 [Bodo Moeller]
7783
Bodo Möller4b49bf62001-05-10 09:33:18 +00007784 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options

7789
Dr. Stephen Hensonce8b2571999-06-29 22:22:42 +00007790 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
7791 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
7792 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
7793 [Steve Henson]
7794
Bodo Möller9c729e01999-06-25 14:04:10 +00007795 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.

7797 test programs.

7799
Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00007800 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
7801 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
7802 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
7803 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
7804 point to the end.

7807
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00007808 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
7809 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
7810 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
7811 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
7812 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
7813 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
7814 [Steve Henson]
7815
Dr. Stephen Hensondbd665c1999-06-22 01:38:31 +00007816 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the

Bodo Möller975d3dc1999-07-09 13:02:14 +00007823 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00007824 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.

7826
Dr. Stephen Henson8623f691999-06-20 17:36:11 +00007827 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
7828 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
7829 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
7830 [Steve Henson]
7831
Bodo Möllera1113061999-06-18 16:14:18 +00007832 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
7833 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
7834 must use this, not the compile-time macro.

7842 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
7843 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
7844 [Bodo Moeller]
7845
7846 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
7847 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
7848 appropriate.
7849 [Bodo Moeller]
7850
Dr. Stephen Henson9bce3071999-06-11 22:30:45 +00007851 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value

7856 [Steve Henson]
7857
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7d135b1999-06-10 17:32:52 +00007858 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
7859 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
7860 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
7861 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.

7866 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7867
Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00007868 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
7869 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
7870 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
7871 unusual formatting.
7872 [Steve Henson]
7873
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00007874 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
7875 to use the new extension code.
7876 [Steve Henson]
7877
7878 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
7879 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
7880 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a

7906
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00007907 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
7908 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
7909 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
7910 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
7911 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
7912 of v2.0.

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00007919 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
7920 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
7921 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
7922 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
7923 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
7924 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
7925 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
7926 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
7927 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
7928 [Steve Henson]

7932 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
7933 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
7934 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
7935 value doesn't matter.

8002
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00008003 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
8004 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
8005 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
8006 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
8007 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
8008 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
8009 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
8010 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
8011 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
8012 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
8013 [Steve Henson]
8014
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00008015 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now

8017 [Steve Henson]
8018
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00008019 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00008020 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00008021 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
8022 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
8023 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.

Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00008072 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
8073 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
8074 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
8075 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
8076 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
8077 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
8078 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
8079 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
8080 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
8081
8082 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
8083 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
8084 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
8085 does not influence s as it used to.
8086
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00008087 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00008088 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
8089 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
8090 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
8091 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
8092 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

8094
Dr. Stephen Hensonc8b41851999-05-09 16:39:11 +00008095 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
8096 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
8097 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
8098 key type.
8099 [Steve Henson]
8100
Dr. Stephen Hensone40b7ab1999-05-08 12:59:50 +00008101 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
8102 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
8103 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
8104 and 'x509').
8105 [Steve Henson]
8106
8107 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
8108 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
8109 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
8110 extension option.
8111 [Steve Henson]
8112
Ben Laurie5b640021999-05-07 15:42:23 +00008113 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
8114 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
8115 [Ben Laurie]
8116
Ulf Möller31a674d1999-05-06 00:46:34 +00008117 *) Support Borland C++ builder.

Ulf Möllerafd1f9e1999-05-04 11:52:26 +00008129 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.

8132 *) Update HPUX configuration.
8133 [Anonymous]
8134
Ralf S. Engelschalldee75ec1999-05-04 10:15:02 +00008135 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
8136 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8137
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00008138 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
8139 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
8140 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
8141 DER-encoded.)
8142 [Bodo Moeller]
8143
Bodo Möller7f897141999-05-01 03:20:40 +00008144 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
8145 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
8146 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
8147 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
8148 now it really counts the depth.
8149 [Bodo Moeller]
8150
Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00008151 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
8152 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
8153 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
8154 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
8155 didn't match the private key).
8156
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00008157 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
Bodo Möllerdd1462f1999-05-01 00:07:42 +00008158 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
8159 connection using the SSL_CTX).

8163 [Ulf Möller]
8164
Bodo Möllere5f30451999-04-29 21:52:08 +00008165 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
8166 David Harris.
8167 [Bodo Moeller]
8168
Bodo Möller87bc2c01999-04-29 16:10:41 +00008169 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
8170 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
8171 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
8172 [Bodo Moeller]
8173
Bodo Möller6e6acfd1999-04-28 22:33:54 +00008174 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
8175 [Bodo Moeller]
8176
Bodo Möllerddeee821999-04-28 22:06:19 +00008177 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
8178 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
8179 such as /usr/local/bin.
8180 [Bodo Moeller]
8181
Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00008182 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.

Ulf Möllerf5d7a031999-04-27 01:14:46 +00008185 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
8186 [Ulf Möller]
8187
Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00008188 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
8189 extension adding in x509 utility.
8190 [Steve Henson]
8191
Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00008192 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
8193 [Ulf Möller]
8194
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00008195 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
8196 prototypes.
8197 [Steve Henson]
8198
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00008199 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.

Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00008202 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
8203 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
8204 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
8205 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
8206 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
8207 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
8208 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
8209 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00008210 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
8211 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

8216
Bodo Möller85f48f71999-04-22 14:28:38 +00008217 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
8218 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
8219 [Bodo Moeller]
8220
Bodo Möller90b8bbb1999-04-22 13:38:03 +00008221 *) Fix some race conditions.

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00008301 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
8302 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
8303 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A

8390 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
8391
Ralf S. Engelschall0e9fc711999-03-25 07:49:33 +00008392 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
8393 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8394 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8395
Ralf S. Engelschall1b276f31999-03-24 10:24:35 +00008396 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
8397 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.

8401 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00008402
Ben Laurieb4cadc61999-03-22 12:22:14 +00008403 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
8404 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
8405 [Ben Laurie]
8406
8407 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
8408 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
8409 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
8410 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
8411 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
8412
Ralf S. Engelschallafb23061999-03-20 13:04:12 +00008413 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
8414 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
8415 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
8416 document.
8417 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8418
Dr. Stephen Henson199d59e1999-03-14 01:16:45 +00008419 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
8420 Malloc, Free.
8421 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
8422
Ben Laurieb4899bb1999-03-12 20:41:09 +00008423 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
8424 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8425
Ben Laurie29c0fcc1999-03-12 20:26:27 +00008426 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
8427 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
8428 if someone would make that last step automatic.
8429 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
8430
Ben Lauriecadf1261999-03-12 19:58:43 +00008431 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
8432 [Ben Laurie]
8433
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00008434 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
8435 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
8436 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
8437 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
8438 [Steve Henson]
8439
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00008440 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
8441 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
8442 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
8443 [Steve Henson]
8444
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00008445 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
8446 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
8447 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
8448 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
8449 installed as `perl').
8450 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8451
Ralf S. Engelschall637691e1999-03-10 19:51:43 +00008452 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
8453 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8454
Dr. Stephen Henson83ec54b1999-03-10 01:37:33 +00008455 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
8456 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
8457 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
Dr. Stephen Henson38138021999-03-10 18:30:48 +00008458 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
8459 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
8460 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson83ec54b1999-03-10 01:37:33 +00008461
Ben Laurieb241fef1999-03-09 11:37:23 +00008462 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
8463 [Ben Laurie]
8464
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00008465 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
8466 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
8467 is horrible: I feel ill....
8468 [Steve Henson]
8469
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00008470 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
8471 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
8472 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
8473 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00008474 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00008475
Ralf S. Engelschalld10f0521999-03-08 12:35:01 +00008476 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
8477 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8478
Ralf S. Engelschallc0e538e1999-03-08 11:41:26 +00008479 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
8480 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
8481 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
8482 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8483
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00008484 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
8485 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
8486 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
8487 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
8488 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
8489 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
8490 openssl_bio.xs.
8491 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8492
Ben Laurie26a08461999-03-07 15:08:38 +00008493 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
8494 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8495
Ben Laurie7d3ce7b1999-03-07 14:17:32 +00008496 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
8497 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
8498
Ben Laurieefadf601999-03-07 15:21:08 +00008499 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
Ben Lauriecba50681999-03-07 14:05:36 +00008500 [Ben Laurie]
8501
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00008502 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
8503 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
8504 in CRLs.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00008505 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00008506
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00008507 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
8508 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
8509 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
8510 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
8511 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
8512 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
8513 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
8514 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
8515 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
8516 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
8517 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8518
Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +00008519 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
8520 [Ben Laurie]
8521
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +00008522 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
8523 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
8524 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
8525 for linking it into DSOs.
8526 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8527
Ben Laurief415fa31999-03-06 14:09:36 +00008528 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
8529 Fixed.
8530 [Ben Laurie]
8531
Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +00008532 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
8533 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
8534 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
8535 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
8536 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
8537 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8538
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00008539 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
8540 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
8541 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
8542 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
8543 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
8544 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
8545 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8546
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00008547 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
8548 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
8549 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
8550 encryption.
8551 [Ben Laurie]
8552
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00008553 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
8554 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
8555 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
8556 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
8557 [Steve Henson]
8558
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00008559 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
8560 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
8561 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
8562 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
8563 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
8564 field as blank.
Dr. Stephen Henson9985bed1999-03-04 23:29:51 +00008565 [Steve Henson]
8566
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +00008567 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
8568 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
8569 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
8570 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
8571 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8572
Ralf S. Engelschalla06c6021999-03-04 07:54:01 +00008573 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
8574 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
8575 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8576
Ralf S. Engelschall8d697db1999-03-04 07:47:27 +00008577 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
8578 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8579
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +00008580 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
8581 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
8582 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
8583 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
8584 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
8585 [Steve Henson]
8586
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00008587 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
8588 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
8589 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
8590 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
8591 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00008592 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
8593 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
8594 [Ben Laurie]
8595
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00008596 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
8597 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
8598 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
8599 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
8600 [Ben Laurie]
Ralf S. Engelschall74d7abc1999-02-27 12:17:40 +00008601
8602 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
8603 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
Ralf S. Engelschall0172f981999-01-30 11:36:05 +00008604
Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00008605 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
8606 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
8607 [Steve Henson]
8608
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00008609 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
8610 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
8611 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
8612 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
8613 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
8614 (e.g. s_server).
8615 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
8616 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
8617 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
8618 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
8619 no way to reconfigure them.
8620 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
8621 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
8622 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
8623 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
8624 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
8625 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8626
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00008627 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
8628 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
8629 recognized by the users.
8630 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8631
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00008632 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
8633 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
8634 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
8635 already masked variable.

8637
Ralf S. Engelschalldef9f431999-02-25 10:54:27 +00008638 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c

8640
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +00008641 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
8642 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
8643 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

8645
Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +00008646 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
8647 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
8648 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8649
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00008650 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
8651 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
8652 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
8653 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
8654 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
8655 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
8656 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
8657 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
8658 now, too.
8659 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8660
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00008661 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested

8668 [Steve Henson]
8669
Ben Laurie0849d131999-02-22 21:21:08 +00008670 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).

8672
Ben Laurie06ab81f1999-02-21 20:03:24 +00008673 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
8674 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
8675 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher

8690 [Steve Henson]
8691
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00008692 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private

8694 [Steve Henson]
8695
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00008696 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
8697 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
8698 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
8699 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
8700 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
8701 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.

8709 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
8710 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
8711 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00

8713
Dr. Stephen Hensona8236c81999-02-15 21:05:21 +00008714 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
8715 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00008716 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c

8726 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8727
Dr. Stephen Henson5c008791999-02-14 00:40:13 +00008728 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
8729 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
8730 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
8731 build instructions.

8733
Dr. Stephen Henson9becf661999-02-13 23:13:32 +00008734 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
8735 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
8736 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
8737 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
8738 [Steve Henson]
8739
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +00008740 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
8741 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
8742 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
8743 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
8744 [Ben Laurie]
8745
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +00008746 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
8747 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
8748 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
8749 so it wasn't spotted.

8751
Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +00008752 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
8753 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
8754 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
8755 vectors if you have them.
8756 [Ben Laurie]
8757
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00008758 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
Ben Laurie436d3181999-02-13 12:39:50 +00008759 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
8760 [Ben Laurie]
8761
Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00008762 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
8763 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
8764 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
8765 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
8766 If you do a:
8767 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
8768 it will update them.

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00008771 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
8772 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
8773 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
8774 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
8775 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
8776 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
8777 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
8778 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8779
Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00008780 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
8781 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
8782 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
8783 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
8784 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
8785 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
8786 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
8787 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
8788 the crypto/md/ stuff).
8789 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8790
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00008791 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
8792 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
8793 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
8794 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
8795 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
8796 [Steve Henson]
8797
Dr. Stephen Hensonbceacf91999-02-09 01:29:37 +00008798 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the

8800 [Steve Henson]
8801

Ben Lauriea96e7811999-01-30 17:53:00 +00008808 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
8809 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
8810 [Ben Laurie]

8823 [Steve Henson]
8824
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00008825 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION

8841 [Steve Henson]
8842
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00008843 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
8844 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
8845 CA extensions.
8846 [Steve Henson]
8847
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00008848 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the

8853 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
8854 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
8855 [Steve Henson]
8856
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00008857 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
8858 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
8859 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
8860 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
8861 properly to be processed.

8871
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00008872 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
8873 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
8874 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
8875 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
8876 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
8877 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
8878 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
8879 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
8880 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00008883 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
8884 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
8885 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing

8894 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
8895 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
8896 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
8897 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.

8920
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00008921 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
8922 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
8923 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
8924 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
8925 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
8926 OID is not part of the table.

9024 [Steve Henson]
9025
9026 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
9027 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
9028 be read in.
9029 [Steve Henson]
9030
Ralf S. Engelschallce72df11998-12-30 23:07:32 +00009031 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
9032 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
9033 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
9034 the new set of documenation files.
9035 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9036
Ben Laurie4098e891998-12-29 21:43:55 +00009037 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
9038 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
9039 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
9040 number of arguments.
9041 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
9042
9043 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
9044 [Ben Laurie]
9045
Ben Laurie03f8b041998-12-29 17:22:31 +00009046 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
9047 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.

9051 [Ben Laurie]
9052
Ben Laurie1641cb61998-12-28 17:08:48 +00009053 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
9054 nextstep
9055 ncr-scde
9056 unixware-2.0
9057 unixware-2.0-pentium
9058 sco5-cc.

Ben Laurie8d7ed6f1998-12-28 21:58:19 +00009061 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
9062 before they are needed.
9063 [Ben Laurie]
9064
9065 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
