Bodo Möller7b3a9b02010-08-26 18:45:45 +00005 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
Dr. Stephen Hensonaaf35f12009-03-30 11:31:50 +00006
Dr. Stephen Hensona4352632012-04-05 13:38:27 +00007 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
8 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
9 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
10 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
11 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
12 [Steve Henson]
13
Dr. Stephen Hensond0595f12012-03-28 15:05:04 +000014 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
15 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
16 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
17 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
18 to set list of supported curves.
19 [Steve Henson]
20
Dr. Stephen Hensone7f8ff42012-03-06 14:28:21 +000021 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
22 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
23 to print out received values.
24 [Steve Henson]
25
Dr. Stephen Henson64095ce2012-02-21 14:41:13 +000026 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
27 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
28 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
29 [Steve Henson]
30
Dr. Stephen Hensonf71c6e52012-01-31 14:00:10 +000031 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
32 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
33 [Steve Henson]
34
Dr. Stephen Henson0d609392012-01-25 14:51:49 +000035 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
36 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
37 [Steve Henson]
38
Dr. Stephen Henson8e1dc4d2012-01-16 18:19:14 +000039 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
40 certificates.
41 [Steve Henson]
42
Dr. Stephen Henson2ca873e2011-12-07 12:44:03 +000043 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
44 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
45 the new parameter format automatically.
46 [Steve Henson]
47
Dr. Stephen Hensonafb14cd2011-12-07 00:32:34 +000048 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
49 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
50 [Steve Henson]
51
Dr. Stephen Henson20bee962011-11-13 14:07:36 +000052 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
53 [Steve Henson]
54
Dr. Stephen Hensona98b8ce2011-11-06 12:53:13 +000055 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
56 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
57 failures.
58 [Steve Henson]
59
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4324e52011-11-05 01:34:36 +000060 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
61 sign or verify all in one operation.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
Dr. Stephen Henson3ec9dce2011-11-02 00:57:22 +000064 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
65 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
66 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4324e52011-11-05 01:34:36 +000067 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson3ec9dce2011-11-02 00:57:22 +000068
Dr. Stephen Henson5e4eb992011-10-19 22:34:53 +000069 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
70 [Steve Henson]
71
Dr. Stephen Henson2bfeb7d2011-09-29 23:08:23 +000072 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
73 [Steve Henson]
74
Dr. Stephen Henson4420b3b2011-09-21 17:04:56 +000075 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
Dr. Stephen Hensoncb718702011-09-22 14:01:25 +000076 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
77 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
Dr. Stephen Henson4420b3b2011-09-21 17:04:56 +000078 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
79 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
80 [Steve Henson]
81
Dr. Stephen Henson15094852011-09-14 13:25:48 +000082 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
83 based on NID.
84 [Steve Henson]
85
Dr. Stephen Hensona11f06b2011-09-12 18:47:39 +000086 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
87 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
88 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
89 [Steve Henson]
90
Dr. Stephen Henson7fdcb452011-09-09 17:16:43 +000091 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
92 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
93 [Steve Henson]
94
Dr. Stephen Hensonf55f5f72011-08-26 14:51:49 +000095 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
96 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
97
Dr. Stephen Henson7fdcb452011-09-09 17:16:43 +000098 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
99 POST to handle HMAC cases.
Dr. Stephen Henson20f12e62011-08-08 22:07:38 +0000100 [Steve Henson]
101
Dr. Stephen Henson01a9a752011-07-04 23:38:16 +0000102 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
103 to return numberical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
104 [Steve Henson]
105
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2fd5982011-05-11 14:43:38 +0000106 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
107 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implmeneted
108 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
109 [Steve Henson]
110
Dr. Stephen Hensone0d1a2f2011-04-23 20:05:19 +0000111 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
112 there is no mutiple of the block length between min_len and
113 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
114 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
115 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
116 requested amount of entropy.
117 [Steve Henson]
118
Dr. Stephen Hensoncac4fb52011-04-23 19:55:55 +0000119 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
120 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
121 [Steve Henson]
122
Dr. Stephen Hensonb5dd1782011-04-18 22:48:40 +0000123 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
124 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
125 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
126 support.
Dr. Stephen Henson23916812011-04-18 14:25:11 +0000127 [Steve Henson]
128
Dr. Stephen Hensonac892b72011-04-14 11:15:10 +0000129 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
130 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
131 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
132 [Steve Henson]
133
Dr. Stephen Henson06b7e5a2011-04-15 02:49:30 +0000134 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
135 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
136 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
137 will never use XTS mode.
Dr. Stephen Henson32a2d8d2011-04-12 23:21:33 +0000138 [Steve Henson]
139
Dr. Stephen Henson05e24c82011-04-05 15:24:10 +0000140 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
141 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
142 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
143 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
144 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
Dr. Stephen Hensond7a3ce92011-04-06 23:41:19 +0000145 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
Dr. Stephen Henson05e24c82011-04-05 15:24:10 +0000146 [Steve Henson]
147
Dr. Stephen Hensoncab05952011-04-05 12:42:31 +0000148 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
149 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
150 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
151 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
152 [Steve Henson]
153
Dr. Stephen Henson96ec46f2011-03-17 16:55:24 +0000154 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
155 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
156 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
157 [Steve Henson]
158
Dr. Stephen Henson8857b382011-03-09 23:44:06 +0000159 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
160 [Steve Henson]
161
Dr. Stephen Henson11e80de2011-03-08 19:10:17 +0000162 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
163 [Steve Henson]
164
165 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
166 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
167 [Steve Henson]
168
Dr. Stephen Henson591cbfa2011-03-04 18:00:21 +0000169 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
170 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
171 [Steve Henson]
172
Dr. Stephen Hensoneead69f2011-02-21 14:07:15 +0000173 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
174 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
175 [Steve Henson]
176
Dr. Stephen Henson017bc572011-02-16 14:49:50 +0000177 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
178 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
Dr. Stephen Henson5d439d62011-02-17 19:03:52 +0000179 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
180 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
181 and rename any affected symbols.
Dr. Stephen Henson017bc572011-02-16 14:49:50 +0000182 [Steve Henson]
183
Dr. Stephen Henson25c65422011-02-15 16:03:47 +0000184 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
185 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
186 [Steve Henson]
187
Dr. Stephen Hensonfe26d062011-02-14 17:14:55 +0000188 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
189 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
Dr. Stephen Henson25c65422011-02-15 16:03:47 +0000190 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonfe26d062011-02-14 17:14:55 +0000191 [Steve Henson]
192
Dr. Stephen Hensonb3310162011-02-12 17:23:32 +0000193 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
194 [Steve Henson]
195
Dr. Stephen Henson30b56222011-02-11 19:02:34 +0000196 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
197 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
198 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
199 [Steve Henson]
200
Dr. Stephen Hensonb3d80222011-02-09 16:21:43 +0000201 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
202 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
203 [Steve Henson]
204
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdaa5412011-02-07 18:16:33 +0000205 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
206 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
207 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
208 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
209 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
210 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
211 set before the key.
212 [Steve Henson]
213
Dr. Stephen Henson3da0ca72011-02-07 14:36:08 +0000214 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
215 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
216 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
217 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
218 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
219 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
220 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
Dr. Stephen Hensond45087c2011-02-07 18:04:27 +0000221 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
Dr. Stephen Henson3da0ca72011-02-07 14:36:08 +0000222 [Steve Henson]
223
Dr. Stephen Henson2b3936e2010-12-25 20:45:59 +0000224 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
225 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
226 [Steve Henson]
227
Bodo Möller7c2d4fe2010-08-26 15:15:47 +0000228 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
229
230 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
231 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
232
233 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
234 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
235 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
236 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
237 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
238 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
239
240 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
241 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
242 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
243 security.
244 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
245
Dr. Stephen Henson1bf508c2010-04-15 13:25:26 +0000246 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_diff to find the difference in days
247 and seconds between two tm structures. This will be used to provide
248 additional functionality for ASN1_TIME.
249 [Steve Henson]
250
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000251 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
252 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
253 [Steve Henson]
254
255 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
256 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
257 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
258 setting is used: whether to trust or reject.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
261 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
262 parameters by name.
263 [Steve Henson]
264
265 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
266 Add CMAC pkey methods.
267 [Steve Henson]
268
Bodo Möller8b37d332011-10-13 13:20:33 +0000269 *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000270 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
271 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
272 [Steve Henson]
273
274 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
275 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
276 multi-process servers.
277 [Steve Henson]
278
279 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
280 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
281 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
282 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
283 RAND_METHOD structure.
284 [Steve Henson]
285
286 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
287 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
288 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
289 whose return value is often ignored.
290 [Steve Henson]

292 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [xx XXX xxxx]
293
294 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
295 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
296 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
297 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
298 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
299 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
300 [Andy Polyakov]
301
Dr. Stephen Hensond9a9d102012-04-19 16:19:56 +0000302 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
303
304 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
305 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
306 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
307
308 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
309 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
310 (CVE-2012-2110)
311 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
Andy Polyakov82c5ac42012-03-31 18:56:27 +0000312
Bodo Möllerd3ddf022012-04-17 15:23:03 +0000313 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
314 [Adam Langley]
315
Dr. Stephen Henson800e1cd2012-04-17 15:12:09 +0000316 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
317 record length exceeds 255 bytes:
318
319 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
320 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
321 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
322 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
323 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
324 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
325 Most broken servers should now work.
326 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
327 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
328
Andy Polyakov82c5ac42012-03-31 18:56:27 +0000329 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
330 [Andy Polyakov]
331
332 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
333
334 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
335 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
336 [Steve Henson]
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000337
Dr. Stephen Henson83cb7c42012-02-15 14:04:00 +0000338 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
339 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
340 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
341 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
342 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
343 [Steve Henson]
344
Dr. Stephen Henson58631632012-02-15 14:27:25 +0000345 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
346 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
347 [Steve Henson]
348
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4e11692012-02-09 15:42:10 +0000349 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
350 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
351 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
352 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
353 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.

364
Andy Polyakove75440d2011-12-19 14:48:49 +0000365 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
366
367 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
368 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
369 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;

391
Bodo Möller3e00b4c2011-10-18 19:43:16 +0000392 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
393 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
394 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
Bodo Möllere0d61322011-10-19 08:59:53 +0000395 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
396 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
Bodo Möller3e00b4c2011-10-18 19:43:16 +0000397
Bodo Möllere0d61322011-10-19 08:59:53 +0000398 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
399 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
400 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
Bodo Möller3e00b4c2011-10-18 19:43:16 +0000401
402 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
403 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
404 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
405
406 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
407 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
408 implementations).

410
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000411 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
412 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
413 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
414 [Steve Henson]
415
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe449442010-03-14 12:55:15 +0000416 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
Dr. Stephen Henson4c623cd2010-03-14 12:54:45 +0000417 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe449442010-03-14 12:55:15 +0000418 particular PSS.

420
Dr. Stephen Hensonf26cf992010-03-11 14:19:46 +0000421 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
Dr. Stephen Henson17c63d12010-03-11 14:06:46 +0000422 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
423 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
424 [Steve Henson]
425
Dr. Stephen Henson85522a02010-03-11 13:32:38 +0000426 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
427 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
428 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
429 the appropriate parameters.
430 [Steve Henson]
431
Dr. Stephen Henson31904ec2010-03-08 18:10:35 +0000432 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
433 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
434 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
435 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
436 against a number of sample certificates.
437 [Steve Henson]
438
439 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
Dr. Stephen Hensonff04bbe2010-03-06 19:55:25 +0000440 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
Dr. Stephen Hensonfa1ba582010-03-06 18:05:05 +0000441
Dr. Stephen Hensonff04bbe2010-03-06 19:55:25 +0000442 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
443 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
444
445 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
446 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
447 parameters r, s.

449
Dr. Stephen Hensonccbb9ba2011-10-09 23:11:55 +0000450 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
451 RFC3211.

453
Dr. Stephen Henson3d63b392009-11-25 22:01:06 +0000454 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
455 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
456 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
457 password based CMS).

459
Bodo Möllerc519e892011-09-05 13:36:23 +0000460 *) Session-handling fixes:
461 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
462 but also support Session Tickets.
463 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
464 presented a ticket with an expired session.
465 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
466 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
467 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.

469
Bodo Möller612fcfb2011-09-05 13:31:17 +0000470 *) Fix PSK session representation.
471 [Bodo Moeller]
472
Bodo Mölleracb4ab32011-09-05 09:30:50 +0000473 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.

475 This work was sponsored by Intel.
476 [Andy Polyakov]
477
Bodo Mölleracb4ab32011-09-05 09:30:50 +0000478 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
479 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
480 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
481 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
482 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
483 [Steve Henson]
484
485 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
486 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
487 [Steve Henson]
488
489 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
490 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
491 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
492 [Steve Henson]
493
494 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
495 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
496 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
497 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
498 [Steve Henson]
499
Bodo Möllere66cb362011-06-15 14:49:17 +0000500 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
501 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
502 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
503 [Steve Henson]
504
Bodo Möller8e855452012-01-05 13:48:55 +0000505 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
506 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
Bodo Möllere66cb362011-06-15 14:49:17 +0000507
508 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
509 [Steve Henson]
510
511 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
512 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
513 [Steve Henson]
514
515 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
516 [Steve Henson]
517
518 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
519 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
520 [Steve Henson]
521
522 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
523 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
524 [Steve Henson]
525
526 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
527 [Steve Henson]
528
529 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
530 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
531 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
532 [Steve Henson]
533
534 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
535 [Steve Henson]
536
537 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
538 [Steve Henson]
539
540 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
541 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
542 [Steve Henson]
543
544 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
545 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
546 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
547 [Steve Henson]
548
549 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
550 [Steve Henson]
551
552 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
553 and enable MD5.
554 [Steve Henson]
555
556 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
557 FIPS modules versions.
558 [Steve Henson]
559
560 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
561 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
562 until after the certificate request message is received.
563 [Steve Henson]
564
565 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
566 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
567 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
568 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
569 [Steve Henson]
570
571 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
572 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
573 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
574 support yet and no support for client certificates.
575 [Steve Henson]
576
577 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
578 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
579 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
580 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
581 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
582 and version checking.
583 [Steve Henson]
584
585 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
586 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
587 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
588 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
589 [Steve Henson]
590
591 *) Add SRP support.

Dr. Stephen Hensonf830c682010-11-24 16:08:20 +0000594 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
595 [Steve Henson]
596
Dr. Stephen Henson44959ee2010-08-26 14:23:52 +0000597 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function

600
Dr. Stephen Henson7bbd0de2010-07-21 16:14:48 +0000601 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
602 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
603 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
604 [Steve Henson]
605
Dr. Stephen Hensonf96ccf32010-07-18 17:43:18 +0000606 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
607 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
608
609 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
610 a few changes are required:
611
612 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
613 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
614 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
615 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
616 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.

Andy Polyakov82c5ac42012-03-31 18:56:27 +0000619 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
620
621 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
622 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
623 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
624 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
625 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
626 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
627 an MMA defence is not necessary.

690
Bodo Möllere5641d72011-10-19 14:59:27 +0000691 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
692 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
693 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
694
695 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
696 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
697 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
698 the last update always remained unused).

781
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f418b2009-12-31 14:13:30 +0000782 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the

784 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
785 [Steve Henson]
786
Dr. Stephen Henson3d63b392009-11-25 22:01:06 +0000787 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option

Dr. Stephen Hensone30dd202009-06-25 11:29:30 +0000807 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
808 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
809 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
810 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
811 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
812 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
813 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
814 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
815 [Steve Henson]
816
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +0000817 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni

827 [Steve Henson]
828
Dr. Stephen Hensone5fa8642009-04-15 15:27:03 +0000829 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
830 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
831 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest

833 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
834 attempting to work them out.
835 [Steve Henson]
836
Dr. Stephen Henson22c98d42009-04-08 16:16:35 +0000837 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
838 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
839 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
840 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
841 [Steve Henson]
842
Dr. Stephen Henson14023fe2009-04-03 11:45:19 +0000843 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
844 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
845 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
846 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
847 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
848 [Steve Henson]
849
Dr. Stephen Hensonaaf35f12009-03-30 11:31:50 +0000850 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
851 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
852 you can do:
853
854 openssl sha256 foo
855
856 as well as:
857
858 openssl dgst -sha256 foo

869
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2c99e22009-01-15 13:22:39 +0000870 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
871 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
872 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
873 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
874 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
875 [Steve Henson]
876
Dr. Stephen Henson8125d9f2009-01-15 12:52:38 +0000877 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
878 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
879 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
880 [Steve Henson]
881
Dr. Stephen Henson363bd0b2009-01-11 15:56:32 +0000882 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code

Dr. Stephen Henson87d3a0c2008-10-07 22:55:27 +0000902 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
903 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
904 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
905 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
906 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
907 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
908 [Steve Henson]
909
Dr. Stephen Hensond43c4492008-09-01 15:15:16 +0000910 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate

915
Dr. Stephen Henson4b968392008-08-29 11:37:21 +0000916 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
917 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
918 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
919 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
920 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
921 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
922 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
923 default.

Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +0000966 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
967 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
968 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
969 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
970 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
971 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
972 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
973 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
974
975 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
976 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
977 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
978
Bodo Möller2ecd2ed2008-08-13 19:30:01 +0000979 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
980 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
981 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
982 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
983
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +0000984 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
985 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
986 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
987 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
988 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
989 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
990 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
991 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
992 of &errno.)

Bodo Möller761772d2007-09-21 06:54:24 +00001046 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1047 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1048 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1049 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1050 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1051 to use. For example, specify an option
1052
1053 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1054
1055 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1056 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1057 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1058 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1059 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1060 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1061
1062 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1063 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1064 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1065 return non-zero for success.
1066
1067 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1068 by using
1069
1070 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1071 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1072
1073 where
1074
1075 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1076 void *arg;
1077
1078 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1079 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1080 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1081 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1082 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1083 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1084 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1085 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1086 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1087
1088 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1089 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1090 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1091 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1092 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1093 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1094
1095 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1096 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1097 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1098 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1099 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1100 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.

1103
Dr. Stephen Henson81025662007-08-31 12:42:53 +00001104 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1105 MAC.

1108
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +00001109 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1110 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1111 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1112 supported.
1113
Dr. Stephen Hensonba0e8262007-08-23 22:59:09 +00001114 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1115 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1116 SSL_SESSION.
1117
1118 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1119 protection in servers so again support should be possible
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +00001120 with no application modification.
1121
1122 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1123 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1124
1125 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1126 or server extensions to be examined.

Dr. Stephen Henson3c07d3a2007-06-07 13:14:42 +00001131 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1132 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1133 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1134
Dr. Stephen Hensonb948e2c2007-06-04 17:04:40 +00001135 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1136 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1137 ciphersuite support.
1138 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1139
Dr. Stephen Henson9cfc8a92007-04-13 01:06:41 +00001140 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1141 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1142 to output in BER and PEM format.
1143 [Steve Henson]
1144
Dr. Stephen Henson47b71e62007-04-11 12:33:28 +00001145 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1146 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1147 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
Dr. Stephen Henson2022cfe2007-04-11 17:20:40 +00001148 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1149 -macopt options to dgst utility.
Dr. Stephen Henson47b71e62007-04-11 12:33:28 +00001150 [Steve Henson]
1151
Dr. Stephen Hensond952c792007-04-08 12:47:18 +00001152 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1153 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1154 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1155 utility.
1156 [Steve Henson]
1157
Bodo Möllerfd5bc652007-02-20 16:36:58 +00001158 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1159 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1160 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1161 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1162 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1163 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1164 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1165 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1166 enabled again.
1167
1168 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1169 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1170 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1171 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1172
1173 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1174 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1175 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1176 the default order.
1177 [Bodo Moeller]
1178
Bodo Möller0a051232007-02-19 18:41:41 +00001179 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1180 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1181 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1182 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1183 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1184 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1185 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1186 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1187 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1188
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00001189 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1190 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1191 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1192 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1193 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1194 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1195 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1196 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1197 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1198 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1199 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1200 kinds of kludges.
1201
1202 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1203 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1204 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1205
1206 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1207 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1208 "CAMELLIA256".
1209 [Bodo Moeller]
1210
Nils Larsch357d5de2007-02-03 14:41:12 +00001211 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1212 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1213 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1214 [Nils Larsch]
1215
Dr. Stephen Henson11d8cdc2006-12-24 16:22:56 +00001216 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1217 it yet and it is largely untested.
1218 [Steve Henson]
1219
Nils Larsch06e2dd02006-12-20 08:58:54 +00001220 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1221 [Nils Larsch]
1222
Dr. Stephen Hensonde121162006-11-16 00:19:39 +00001223 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
Dr. Stephen Henson297e6f12007-06-04 17:53:04 +00001224 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
Dr. Stephen Hensona6fbcb42007-09-07 13:25:15 +00001225 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.

Andy Polyakov31897722006-10-23 07:38:30 +00001228 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1229 [Andy Polyakov]
1230
Dr. Stephen Henson010fa0b2006-09-21 12:42:15 +00001231 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1232 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1233 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1234 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1235 [Steve Henson]
1236
Dr. Stephen Henson5d20c4f2006-09-17 17:16:28 +00001237 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1238 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1239 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1240 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1241 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1242 [Steve Henson]
1243
1244 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1245 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1246 [Cryptocom]
1247
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc7535b2006-09-14 17:25:02 +00001248 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1249 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1250 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1251 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1252 [Steve Henson]
1253
1254 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1255 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1256 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1257 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1258 [Steve Henson]
1259
Dr. Stephen Hensonf6e7d012006-07-25 17:39:38 +00001260 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1261 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1262 [Steve Henson]
1263
Dr. Stephen Hensonedc54022006-07-24 12:39:22 +00001264 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1265 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1266 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1267 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1268 [Steve Henson]
1269
Dr. Stephen Henson450ea832006-07-18 12:36:19 +00001270 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1271 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1272 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1273 [Steve Henson]
1274
Dr. Stephen Henson454dbbc2006-07-17 13:26:54 +00001275 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1276 utility.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc1c6c0b2006-07-17 12:18:28 +00001277 [Steve Henson]
1278
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7683e32006-07-10 18:36:55 +00001279 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1280 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1281 [Steve Henson]
1282
1283 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1284 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1285 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1286 if necessary.
1287 [Steve Henson]
1288
Dr. Stephen Henson0ee21662006-07-09 16:05:43 +00001289 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1290 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1291 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1292 [Steve Henson]
1293
Dr. Stephen Henson5ba4bf32006-07-09 00:53:45 +00001294 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1295 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1296 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1297 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1298 [Steve Henson]
1299
Bodo Möllerc4e78702006-06-18 22:00:57 +00001300 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1301 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1302 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1303 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1304 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1305 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1306 [Douglas Stebila]
1307
Bodo Möller89bbe142006-06-14 17:40:31 +00001308 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1309 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1310 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1311 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1312 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1313
1314 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1315 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1316 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1317 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1318 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1319 protocol).
1320
1321 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1322 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1323 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1324 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1325
1326 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1327 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1328 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1329 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1330 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1331
1332 aECDH - ECDH cert
1333 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1334 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1335
1336 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1337 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1338
1339 [Bodo Moeller]
1340
Dr. Stephen Hensonfb7b3932006-06-06 13:27:36 +00001341 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1342 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1343 [Steve Henson]
1344
Dr. Stephen Henson01b8b3c2006-06-05 11:52:46 +00001345 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1346 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1347 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonde9fcfe2006-06-02 17:52:27 +00001348
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +00001349 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9777d22006-06-02 12:33:39 +00001350 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1351 functional reference processing.
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +00001352 [Steve Henson]
1353
Dr. Stephen Henson91c9e622006-05-24 17:30:09 +00001354 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1355 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1356 process.
1357 [Steve Henson]
1358
Dr. Stephen Henson55311922006-05-18 23:44:44 +00001359 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1360 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1361 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1362 [Steve Henson]
1363
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7fcd2006-05-18 12:41:28 +00001364 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1365 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1366 application to support multiple signers.
1367 [Steve Henson]
1368
Dr. Stephen Henson121dd392006-05-17 18:46:22 +00001369 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1370 digest MAC.
1371 [Steve Henson]
1372
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +00001373 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8f702a2006-05-15 17:34:36 +00001374 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3a1ea2006-05-15 18:35:13 +00001375 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1376 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1377 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +00001378 [Steve Henson]
1379
Dr. Stephen Henson34b3c722006-05-14 16:50:22 +00001380 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
Dr. Stephen Henson959e8df2006-05-11 21:39:00 +00001381 new API.
1382 [Steve Henson]
1383
Dr. Stephen Henson399a6f02006-05-08 12:44:25 +00001384 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1385 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1386 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1387 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1388 a no op.
1389 [Steve Henson]
Richard Levitte28e4fe32005-05-18 04:04:12 +00001390
Dr. Stephen Henson03919682006-05-07 17:09:39 +00001391 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1392 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1393 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1394 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1395 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1396 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1397 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1398 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1399 [Steve Henson]
1400
Dr. Stephen Hensonee1d9ec2006-04-19 17:05:59 +00001401 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1402 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1403 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1404 between digests and public key types.
1405 [Steve Henson]
1406
Dr. Stephen Hensond2027092006-04-18 23:36:07 +00001407 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1408 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1409 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1410 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1411 [Steve Henson]
1412
Dr. Stephen Henson492a9e22006-04-17 17:12:23 +00001413 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1414 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1415 key ASN1 method.
1416 [Steve Henson]
1417
Dr. Stephen Henson9ca70472006-04-16 16:15:59 +00001418 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1419 [Steve Henson]
1420
Dr. Stephen Hensonffb1ac62006-04-13 20:16:56 +00001421 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1422 pkeyutl.
1423 [Steve Henson]
1424
Dr. Stephen Henson3ba08852006-04-12 23:51:24 +00001425 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1426 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1427 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1428 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1429 pkey, genpkey.
1430 [Steve Henson]
1431
Ulf Möller4700aea2006-04-11 21:34:21 +00001432 *) BeOS support.
1433 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1434
1435 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1436 manual pages.
1437 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1438
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +00001439 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1440 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1441 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1442 functionality for RSA.
1443 [Steve Henson]
1444
Dr. Stephen Hensonf733a5e2006-04-07 16:42:09 +00001445 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1446 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1447 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.

1475 structure.
1476 [Steve Henson]
1477
Dr. Stephen Henson448be742006-03-20 12:22:24 +00001478 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1479 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1480 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1481 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1482 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1483 of public and private key structures.

1509
Bodo Möller1aeb3da2006-01-06 09:08:59 +00001510 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1511 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1512 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1513 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1514 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1515 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1516 server_name extension.

Bodo Möller241520e2006-01-11 06:10:40 +00001534 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1535 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1536 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1537 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1538 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1539 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1540 option.

1545 [Andy Polyakov]
1546
Andy Polyakov0cb9d932005-12-16 11:12:42 +00001547 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1548 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1549 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1550 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1551 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1552 [Andy Polyakov]
1553
Bodo Möller8dee9f82005-11-15 21:08:38 +00001554 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c

1560 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1561 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1562 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1563 [Andy Polyakov]
1564
Dr. Stephen Henson566dda02005-10-08 00:18:53 +00001565 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1566 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1567 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1568 using the maximum available value.
1569 [Steve Henson]
1570
Bodo Möller13e46702005-10-01 04:08:48 +00001571 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code

1573 [Bodo Moeller]
1574
Dr. Stephen Henson1ef7acf2005-09-01 13:59:16 +00001575 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general

1663
1664 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING

Dr. Stephen Henson47e0a1c2010-02-17 14:32:41 +00001775 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
1776 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
1777 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
1778 [Steve Henson]
1779
Dr. Stephen Henson4ba1aa32010-01-27 14:05:39 +00001780 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
Dr. Stephen Hensond5e7f2f2010-01-26 19:47:37 +00001781 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
1782 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
1783 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
1784 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
1785 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.

1791 [Steve Henson]
1792
Dr. Stephen Henson1b31b5a2010-01-13 18:57:40 +00001793 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
1794 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
Dr. Stephen Henson58c0da82010-01-26 12:30:00 +00001795 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
Dr. Stephen Henson1b31b5a2010-01-13 18:57:40 +00001796 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
1797 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
1798 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
1799 CVE-2009-4355.

Bodo Möller3e8b6482010-03-25 11:25:30 +00001802 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't

1812 [Steve Henson]
1813
Dr. Stephen Henson82e610e2009-12-08 19:06:26 +00001814 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9595982010-02-12 21:59:31 +00001815 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
1816 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
1817 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
1818 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
1819 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
1820 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
1821 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
1822 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.

Bodo Möllere194fe82008-05-28 22:17:34 +00002084 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS

Lutz Jänickec2c2e7a2008-05-23 10:37:52 +00002093 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2094
2095 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2096 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2097 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2098
Lutz Jänicked18ef842008-05-23 08:59:23 +00002099 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2100
2101 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2102 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2103 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2104 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.

2106
Dr. Stephen Henson94fd3822008-05-19 21:33:55 +00002107 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2108 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2109 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2110 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2111 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2112 invalid read after the end of 'db').

Bodo Möllerdb99c522008-09-14 13:51:44 +00002114
2115 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2116
2117 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2118 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2119 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2120 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2121 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2122
2123 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2124 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2125
2126 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2127 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2128 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2129 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2130 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)

2133
Dr. Stephen Henson8a2062f2008-04-30 16:14:02 +00002134 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2135 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2136 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2137 sets may exist with different names.

Geoff Thorpee7b097f2008-04-28 21:39:09 +00002140 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2141 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2142 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2143 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2144 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2145 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2146 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2147 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2148 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2149 implementation.
2150 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2151
Bodo Möllerdb99c522008-09-14 13:51:44 +00002152 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2153 implemention in the following ways:
2154
2155 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2156 hard coded.
2157
2158 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2159 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2160 ignored for embedded content.
2161
2162 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2163 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2164 [Steve Henson]
2165
Geoff Thorpe5ee6f962008-04-27 18:41:23 +00002166 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2167 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2168 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.

2173 [Steve Henson]
2174
Dr. Stephen Henson992e92a2008-04-02 11:24:22 +00002175 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2176 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2177 [Steve Henson]
2178
2179 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2180 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2181 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2182 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2183 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2184 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2185 data.

2190 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2191
Dr. Stephen Henson76d761c2008-01-03 22:57:50 +00002192 *) Netware support:
2193
2194 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2195 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2196 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2197 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2198 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2199 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2200 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2201 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2202 platform
2203 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2204 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2205 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2206 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2207 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2208 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply

Dr. Stephen Hensona6db6a02007-10-12 00:15:09 +00002211 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2212 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded

2220 *) Fix various bugs:
2221 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2222 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers

Dr. Stephen Hensona6db6a02007-10-12 00:15:09 +00002227 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00002228
Andy Polyakov0d89e452007-10-13 10:55:30 +00002229 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2230 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2231 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2232 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2233 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2234 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2235 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2236 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2237 [Andy Polyakov]
2238
2239 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2240 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2241 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2242 Steve Henson]
2243
2244 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2245 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2246 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2247 supported.
2248
2249 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2250 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2251 SSL_SESSION.
2252
2253 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2254 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2255 with no application modification.
2256
2257 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2258 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2259
2260 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2261 or server extensions to be examined.
2262
2263 This work was sponsored by Google.
2264 [Steve Henson]
2265
2266 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2267 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2268 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2269 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2270 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2271 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2272 server_name extension.
2273
2274 New functions (subject to change):
2275
2276 SSL_get_servername()
2277 SSL_get_servername_type()
2278 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2279
2280 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2281
2282 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2283 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2284 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2285 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2286 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2287
2288 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2289
2290 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2291 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2292 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2293 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2294 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2295 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2296 option.
2297
2298 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2299
2300 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2301 [Steve Henson]
2302
Andy Polyakov85a56682007-06-20 17:46:43 +00002303 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.

2314 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2315
Bodo Möller96afc1c2007-04-23 23:48:59 +00002316 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2317 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2318 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2319
2320 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2321 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2322 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2323 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2324
2325 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2326 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2327 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2328 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2329
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00002330 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2331 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2332 information. For detailed background information, see
2333 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2334 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2335 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2336 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2337 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2338 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2339 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
Bodo Möllerb0022652007-03-28 18:41:23 +00002340 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2341 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2342 remove a conditional branch.
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00002343
2344 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2345 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2346 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2347 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2348 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2349 remains as a deprecated alias.
2350
2351 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2352 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2353 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2354 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2355
2356 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2357 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2358 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2359 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2360 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2361 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2362 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2363 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.

2365 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2366
Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00002367 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2368 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2369 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2370 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2371 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2372 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2373 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2374 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2375 in a different context.

2388
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00002389 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2390 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2391 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2392 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2393 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2394 [Victor Duchovni]
2395
Bodo Möller772e3c02006-12-19 15:11:37 +00002396 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2397 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2398 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2399 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2400 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2401 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)

2438
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00002439 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2440 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
Bodo Möllerb6699c32006-09-12 14:42:19 +00002441 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2442 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00002443 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2444 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2445 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2446 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2447 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2448
2449 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2450 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2451 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2452 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2453 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2454
2455 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2456 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2457 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2458 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2459 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2460 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2461 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2462 multiple values to extend the available space.

Mark J. Coxb79aa052006-09-05 08:58:03 +00002466 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2467
2468 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2469 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
Dr. Stephen Henson5cda6c42006-05-07 12:30:37 +00002470
Ben Laurieaa6d1a02006-08-31 14:04:04 +00002471 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2472 [Ben Laurie]
2473
Bodo Möllere34aa5a2006-06-28 14:50:12 +00002474 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2475 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2476 undesirable limitations.
2477 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2478
Bodo Möller81de1022006-06-22 12:37:28 +00002479 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2480 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2481 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2482 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2483 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2484 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2485 to avoid potential handshake problems.
Bodo Möller850815c2006-06-20 08:50:42 +00002486 [Bodo Moeller]
2487
Bodo Möller5b57fe02006-06-14 17:51:46 +00002488 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2489
2490 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2491 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2492 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2493
2494 The latter two were purportedly from
2495 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2496 appear there.
2497
Nils Larschfec38ca2006-12-21 21:13:27 +00002498 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
Bodo Möller5b57fe02006-06-14 17:51:46 +00002499 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2500 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2501 [Bodo Moeller]
2502
Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +00002503 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2504 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2505 [Bodo Moeller]
2506
Bodo Möllerf3dea9a2006-06-09 15:44:59 +00002507 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2508 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2509 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2510 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2511
2512 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2513 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2514 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2515 [NTT]
2516
Dr. Stephen Henson5cda6c42006-05-07 12:30:37 +00002517 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2518 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2519 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2520 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2521 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2522 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2523 [Steve Henson]
2524
2525 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
Richard Levitte998ac552005-11-01 07:53:37 +00002526
Dr. Stephen Hensonba1ba5f2006-04-15 00:22:05 +00002527 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2528 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2529 [Steve Henson]
2530
Dr. Stephen Henson31676a32006-01-15 13:50:10 +00002531 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2532 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2533
Bodo Möllerd56349a2005-12-13 07:33:35 +00002534 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
Bodo Möllered4a1d12006-03-11 22:10:34 +00002535 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2536 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2537 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
Bodo Möllerd56349a2005-12-13 07:33:35 +00002538 [Douglas Stebila]
2539
Dr. Stephen Hensonb40228a2005-12-02 13:46:39 +00002540 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2541 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2542 [Steve Henson]
2543
Dr. Stephen Hensonad2695b2005-12-05 13:46:46 +00002544 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
2545 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
2546 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
2547 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
2548 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
2549 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
2550 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
2551 can't be loaded.
2552 [Steve Henson]
2553
Dr. Stephen Henson452ae492005-11-20 13:07:47 +00002554 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
2555 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
2556 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
2557 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
2558 [Steve Henson]
2559
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbf002b2005-11-06 17:58:26 +00002560 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
2561 under VC++ build system.
2562 [Steve Henson]
2563
Richard Levitte998ac552005-11-01 07:53:37 +00002564 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
2565 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
2566 [Richard Levitte]
2567
Mark J. Coxd357be32005-10-11 11:10:19 +00002568 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
2569
2570 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2571 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2572 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2573 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad

2581 [Steve Henson]
2582
Nils Larsch6e119bb2005-08-25 07:29:54 +00002583 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
2584 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2585 [Nils Larsch]
2586
Bodo Möller770bc592005-08-23 06:54:33 +00002587 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.

2598 [Steve Henson]
2599
Dr. Stephen Henson8f2e4fd2005-08-04 22:15:22 +00002600 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
2601 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
2602 smime utility.
2603 [Steve Henson]
Richard Levitte2bd2cd92005-07-05 19:16:24 +00002604
2605 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
Nils Larsch12bdb642005-04-02 09:29:15 +00002606
Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +00002607 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2608 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2609
Richard Levittec8310122005-07-05 18:36:42 +00002610 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
2611 [Richard Levitte]
2612
2613 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
2614 key into the same file any more.
2615 [Richard Levitte]
2616
Andy Polyakov8d3509b2005-07-05 11:48:38 +00002617 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
2618 [Andy Polyakov]
2619
Dr. Stephen Hensoncbdac462005-07-04 23:12:04 +00002620 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
2621 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
2622
Richard Levittec8310122005-07-05 18:36:42 +00002623 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
2624 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
2625 [Richard Levitte]
2626
Geoff Thorpea2c32e22005-05-29 19:14:21 +00002627 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
2628 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
2629 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
2630 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
2631 this only applies when building 'shared'.
2632 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
2633
Dr. Stephen Hensonb6995ad2005-05-15 00:54:45 +00002634 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
2635 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
2636 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
2637 [Steve Henson]
2638
Nils Larsch800e4002005-04-26 22:31:48 +00002639 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
2640 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
2641 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
2642 - add new function for parameter creation
2643 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
2644 BN_BLINDING parameters
2645 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
2646 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
2647 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
2648 threads.
2649 [Nils Larsch]
2650
Ben Laurie36d16f82005-04-26 16:02:40 +00002651 *) Add support for DTLS.

2653
Nils Larschdc0ed302005-04-08 22:52:42 +00002654 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
2655 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
2656 [Walter Goulet]
2657
Nils Larsch60493992005-04-07 23:19:17 +00002658 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
2659 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
2660 [Nils Larsch]
2661
Nils Larsch12bdb642005-04-02 09:29:15 +00002662 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
2663 the apps/openssl applications.
2664 [Nils Larsch]
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00002665
Ben Laurie41a15c42005-03-31 09:26:39 +00002666 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
2667 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
2668 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
2669 [Ben Laurie]
2670
Bodo Möllerc9a112f2005-02-22 10:29:51 +00002671 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
Bodo Möllerecc5ef82005-03-02 20:11:31 +00002672 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
2673
2674 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
2675 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
2676
2677 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
2678 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
2679 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
2680 avoid this algorithm.)

Bodo Möllerc9a112f2005-02-22 10:29:51 +00002682 [Bodo Moeller]
2683
Richard Levitte6951c232004-12-28 00:21:35 +00002684 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
2685 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
2686 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
2687 [Richard Levitte]
2688
Andy Polyakovea681ba2004-11-26 15:26:09 +00002689 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such

2691 [Andy Polyakov]
2692
Dr. Stephen Henson401ee372004-11-25 17:47:31 +00002693 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
2694 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
2695 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
2696 pod file:

2702 [Steve Henson]
2703
Dr. Stephen Henson826a42a2004-11-16 17:30:59 +00002704 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
2705 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
2706 sources.
2707 [Steve Henson]
2708
Dr. Stephen Henson5d7c2222004-09-06 18:43:01 +00002709 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
2710 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
2711
2712 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
2713 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
2714 to support policy checking and print out.
2715 [Steve Henson]
2716
Geoff Thorpe30fe0282004-08-04 22:42:29 +00002717 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3

2719 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
2720 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
2721
Geoff Thorpedf11e1e2004-06-17 23:50:25 +00002722 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
2723 [Geoff Thorpe]
2724
Andy Polyakovad500342004-05-31 14:03:02 +00002725 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
2726 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
2727
Andy Polyakove14f4aa2004-05-13 13:58:44 +00002728 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
2729 implementation contributed by IBM.
2730 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
2731
Geoff Thorpebcfea9f2004-04-26 15:31:35 +00002732 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
2733 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
2734 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
2735 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
2736
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00002737 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
2738 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
2739
2740 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
2741 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
2742 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
2743 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
2744 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
2745 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
Dr. Stephen Henson64674bc2004-04-20 12:05:26 +00002746 [Steve Henson]
2747
Geoff Thorpe3a87a9b2004-04-19 17:46:04 +00002748 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
2749 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
2750 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
2751 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
2752 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
2753 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
2754 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
2755 [Geoff Thorpe]
2756
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf5773f2004-03-31 12:55:33 +00002757 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
2758 [Steve Henson]
2759
Dr. Stephen Henson216659e2004-03-28 17:38:00 +00002760 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
2761 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
2762 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
2763 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
2764 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
2765 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
2766 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
2767 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
2768 [Steve Henson]
2769
Dr. Stephen Hensone1a27eb2004-03-27 22:49:28 +00002770 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
2771 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
2772 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
2773 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
2774 [Steve Henson]
2775
Dr. Stephen Henson6446e0c2004-03-27 13:30:14 +00002776 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
2777 syntax:
2778
2779 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
2780 [Steve Henson]
2781
Geoff Thorpe5c98b2c2004-03-25 04:16:14 +00002782 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
2783 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
2784 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
2785 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
2786 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
2787 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
2788 BN_CTX's "bundling".

2790
Geoff Thorpe46ef8732004-03-25 02:52:04 +00002791 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
2792 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
2793 [Geoff Thorpe]
2794
Dr. Stephen Henson4acc3e92004-03-23 14:14:35 +00002795 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
2796 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
2797 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
2798 [Steve Henson]
2799
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00002800 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
2801 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
2802 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
2803 below).
2804 [Geoff Thorpe]
2805
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00002806 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
2807 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00002808 [Richard Levitte]

Geoff Thorpeb6358c82004-03-13 23:57:20 +00002810 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
2811 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
2812 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
2813 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
2814 [Geoff Thorpe]
2815
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00002816 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
2817 initialised value as BN_new().
2818 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
2819
Dr. Stephen Hensonedec6142004-03-08 13:56:31 +00002820 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
2821 [Steve Henson]
2822
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00002823 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
2824 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
2825 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
2826 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
2827 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
2828 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
2829 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
2830 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
2831 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
2832 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
2833 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
2834 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
2835 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
2836 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.

Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00002838
Geoff Thorpe2ce90b92003-10-29 18:04:37 +00002839 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
2840 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
2841 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
2842 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
2843 [Geoff Thorpe]
2844
Geoff Thorpe8dc344c2003-10-29 04:57:05 +00002845 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
2846 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
2847 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
2848 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
2849 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
2850 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
2851 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
2852 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
2853 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
2854 [Geoff Thorpe]
2855
Geoff Thorpe0991f072003-10-29 04:40:13 +00002856 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
2857 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
2858 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
2859 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
2860 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
2861 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
2862 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
2863 [Geoff Thorpe]
2864
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00002865 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
Geoff Thorpe2aaec9c2003-10-29 04:14:08 +00002866 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
2867 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
2868 these have been updated also.
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00002869 [Geoff Thorpe]
2870
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00002871 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
2872 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
2873 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
2874 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
2875 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
2876 functions.
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00002877 [Steve Henson]
2878
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00002879 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
2880 structure of type "other".
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00002881 [Steve Henson]
2882
Ralf S. Engelschall6bd27f82003-09-25 13:57:58 +00002883 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
2884 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
2885 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
2886 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
2887 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
2888 situation in the script.
2889 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2890
Bodo Möller968766c2003-07-22 12:34:21 +00002891 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2892 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
2893 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
2894 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
2895 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
2896 used as premaster secret.
2897 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2898
Bodo Möller652ae062003-07-22 10:39:10 +00002899 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
2900 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
2901 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2902
Richard Levittee666c452003-06-11 22:42:28 +00002903 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
2904 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
2905
Richard Levitte54f64512003-06-11 20:49:58 +00002906 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
2907 control of the error stack.
2908 [Richard Levitte]
2909
Richard Levitte3bbb0212003-05-01 03:57:46 +00002910 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
2911 [Richard Levitte]
2912
Richard Levittea5db6fa2003-05-01 03:53:12 +00002913 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
2914 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
2915 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
2916 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
2917 [Richard Levitte]
2918
Richard Levitte535fba42003-05-01 03:45:18 +00002919 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
2920 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
2921 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
2922 [Richard Levitte]
2923
Richard Levitte1ae0a832003-04-29 22:08:57 +00002924 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
2925 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
2926 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
2927 a memory area.
2928 [Richard Levitte]
2929
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +00002930 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
2931 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
2932 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
2933 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
2934 [Richard Levitte]
2935
Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +00002936 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
2937 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
2938 the following flags are defined:
2939
2940 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
2941 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
2942 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
2943 number.
2944
2945 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
2946 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
2947 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
2948 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
2949 returns zero.

Richard Levitte16b1b032003-04-03 22:33:59 +00002952 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
2953 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
2954 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
2955 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
2956 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
2957 [Richard Levitte]
2958
Richard Levittee6526fb2003-04-03 22:27:24 +00002959 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
2960 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
2961 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
2962 [Richard Levitte]
2963
Richard Levittef85b68c2003-04-03 16:33:03 +00002964 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
2965 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
2966 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
2967 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
2968 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
2969 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
2970 [Richard Levitte]
2971
Dr. Stephen Henson1a15c892003-03-30 01:51:16 +00002972 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
2973 req and dirName.
2974 [Steve Henson]
2975
Dr. Stephen Henson520b76f2003-03-24 17:04:44 +00002976 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
2977 [Steve Henson]
2978
Dr. Stephen Hensonf80153e2003-03-21 16:26:20 +00002979 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
2980 [Steve Henson]
2981
Dr. Stephen Hensona1d12da2003-03-20 17:26:44 +00002982 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
2983 [Steve Henson]
2984
Geoff Thorpe879650b2003-03-11 01:49:21 +00002985 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
2986 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
2987 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
2988 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
2989 default implementation more easily.
2990 [Geoff Thorpe]
2991
Dr. Stephen Hensonf0dc08e2003-02-27 01:54:11 +00002992 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
2993 in config files.
2994 [Steve Henson]
2995
Richard Levitte132eaa52003-02-22 14:41:34 +00002996 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
2997 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
2998 [Richard Levitte]
2999
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00003000 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3001 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3002 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3003 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3004
Dr. Stephen Hensone9ec6392003-02-25 19:03:31 +00003005 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00003006 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3007 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3008 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3009 [Steve Henson]
3010
Richard Levitte2d3de722003-02-13 23:52:54 +00003011 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3012 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3013 to do it.
3014 [Richard Levitte]
3015
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00003016 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +00003017 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00003018 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +00003019 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00003020 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3021 scalar * generator).
3022 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3023
Dr. Stephen Henson4e5d3a72003-02-05 00:34:31 +00003024 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3025 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3026 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3027 correctly.
3028 [Steve Henson]
3029
Geoff Thorpe96f70652003-01-30 15:52:40 +00003030 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3031 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3032 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3033 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3034 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3035 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3036 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3037 linker additions, eg;
3038 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3039 [Geoff Thorpe]
3040
3041 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3042 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3043 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3044 [Geoff Thorpe]
3045
Lutz Jänickea74333f2003-01-15 14:54:59 +00003046 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3047 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3048 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3049 via PR#459)
3050 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3051
Geoff Thorpe0e4aa0d2003-01-15 02:01:55 +00003052 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3053 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3054 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3055 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3056 [Geoff Thorpe]
3057
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +00003058 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3059 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3060 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3061 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3062 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3063 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3064 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3065 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3066 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3067 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00003068
3069 Example for using the new callback interface:
3070
3071 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3072 void *my_arg = ...;
3073 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3074
3075 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3076
3077 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3078 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3079 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3080 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3081 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3082 * to continue, or 0 to stop.

3090 [Richard Levitte]
3091
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00003092 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3093 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3094
3095 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00003096 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3097 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3098 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00003099
3100 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3101 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3102
3103 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3104 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3105 well.
3106 [Richard Levitte]

3110 [Richard Levitte]
3111
Nils Larschff22e912005-04-22 20:02:44 +00003112 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function

Bodo Möller5c6bf032002-10-28 13:23:24 +00003120 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3121 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).

3128
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +00003129 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines

3131 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3132 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new

3142
Richard Levitte30afcc02002-10-11 00:37:11 +00003143 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3144 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3145 [Richard Levitte]

3149
Dr. Stephen Henson9a48b072002-10-03 23:53:52 +00003150 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3151 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3152 files while avoiding the low level API.
3153
3154 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3155 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3156 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3157 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3158
3159 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3160 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3161 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3162 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3163 instead of the low level API.
3164 [Steve Henson]
3165
Dr. Stephen Henson230fd6b2002-10-03 12:38:52 +00003166 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3167 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3168 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3169 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3170 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3171 PKCS#7 code.
3172
3173 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3174 down to the template encoder.
3175 [Steve Henson]
3176
Bodo Möller9226e212002-09-10 07:34:45 +00003177 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not

3179 [Bodo Moeller]
3180
Bodo Möllerea262262002-08-09 08:56:08 +00003181 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3182 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3183 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.

3188
3189 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3190 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3191
Bodo Möller95ecacf2002-08-02 15:02:03 +00003192 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3193 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3194 [Bodo Moeller]
3195
Bodo Möller6fb60a82002-08-02 14:57:53 +00003196 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3197 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3198 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3199 [Bodo Moeller]
3200
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00003201 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3202 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3203
3204 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3205 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3206
3207 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3208 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3209 New EC_METHOD:
3210
3211 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3212
3213 New API functions:
3214
3215 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3216 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3217 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00003218 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3219 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3220 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3221
3222 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3223 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3224 enable it).
3225
3226 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3227 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3228 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3229 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3230 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +00003231 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3232 various internal method names.)
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00003233
3234 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3235 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.

3238 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3239
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +00003240 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00003241 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3242
3243 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3244 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3245 methods are undefined.
3246
3247 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3248 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3249
3250 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3251 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3252 length of the modulus.
3253
3254 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3255 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3256
3257 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3258 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).

3261 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3262
Bodo Möller1dc920c2002-08-02 13:03:55 +00003263 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3264 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3265 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3266
3267 BN_GF2m_add
3268 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3269 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3270 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3271 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3272 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3273 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3274 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3275 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3276 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3277
3278 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3279 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3280
3281 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3282 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3283 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3284 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3285 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3286 where
3287 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3288 This applies to the following functions:
3289
3290 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3291 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3292 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3293 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3294 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3295 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3296 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3297 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3298 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3299 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3300
3301 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3302
3303 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3304 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3305
3306 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3307
Bodo Möller909abce2002-08-02 18:26:02 +00003308 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3309 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3310 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3311 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3312 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).

3322 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3323
3324 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'

3336 These control ASN1 encoding details:
Bodo Möllerb8e0e122002-06-12 14:19:01 +00003337 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3338 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +00003339 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for

3345 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3346 functions
3347 EC_GROUP_set_seed()

3380 [Bodo Moeller]
3381
Bodo Möller82652aa2002-03-20 16:04:04 +00003382 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via

Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00003395 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the

3397 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3398 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3399 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and

Richard Levitte27a3d9f2006-06-27 06:31:34 +00003498 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3499 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3500 undesirable limitations.

Bodo Möller5b57fe02006-06-14 17:51:46 +00003503 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3504
3505 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3506 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3507 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3508
3509 The latter two were purportedly from
3510 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3511 appear there.
3512
3513 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3514 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3515 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3516 [Bodo Moeller]
3517
Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +00003518 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3519 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3520 [Bodo Moeller]
3521
3522 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3523
3524 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3525 module in FIPS mode.
3526 [Steve Henson]
3527
3528 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3529 [Steve Henson]
3530
3531 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3532 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3533 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3534 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.

3536
Richard Levitte89ec4332005-10-15 04:26:57 +00003537 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3538
3539 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3540 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3541 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3542 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3543 the difference induced by this change.

Mark J. Coxd357be32005-10-11 11:10:19 +00003546 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
3547
3548 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3549 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3550 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3551 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad

Dr. Stephen Hensonb615ad92005-06-02 20:11:16 +00003558 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is

3561
Bodo Möller0ebfcc82005-05-26 04:40:52 +00003562 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
3563 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
3564 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
3565 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
3566 biased k.)
3567 [Bodo Moeller]
3568
Bodo Möller46a64372005-05-16 01:43:31 +00003569 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
Bodo Möller91b17fb2005-05-16 19:14:34 +00003570 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
3571 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
3572 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
3573 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
Bodo Möller46a64372005-05-16 01:43:31 +00003574
3575 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
3576 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
Bodo Möllerdb99c522008-09-14 13:51:44 +00003577 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
Bodo Möller46a64372005-05-16 01:43:31 +00003578 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
3579 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
3580 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.

3585 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
3586 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
3587 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
3588 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)

3590
Dr. Stephen Henson05338b52005-05-01 12:46:57 +00003591 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
3592 clients need.
3593 [Steve Henson]
3594
Dr. Stephen Henson6ec8e632005-04-26 23:58:54 +00003595 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
3596 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
3597 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
3598 [Steve Henson]
3599
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc3cae72005-04-12 13:31:14 +00003600 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions

3609
Dr. Stephen Henson0858b712005-04-09 23:55:55 +00003610 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
3611 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
3612 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
3613 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
3614 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
3615 some needed definitions.
3616 [Steve Henson]
3617
Ulf Möller7a8c7282005-03-24 00:14:59 +00003618 *) Undo Cygwin change.

Richard Levitted9bfe4f2005-04-09 16:07:12 +00003621 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
3622 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
3623 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
3624 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.

Dr. Stephen Henson59b68362005-03-22 14:11:06 +00003629 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
3630 server and client random values. Previously
3631 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
3632 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
3633
3634 This change has negligible security impact because:
3635
3636 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
3637 data.
3638
3639 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
3640 handshake.
3641
3642 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
3643 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
3644 values.

3677
Richard Levitte5022e4e2004-11-29 11:57:00 +00003678 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
3679 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
3680 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
3681 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
3682
3683 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
3684 has chosen to ignore this fault)
3685 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
3686 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has

3693 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
3694 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
3695 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.

3704
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00003705 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
3706 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
3707 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
3708 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
3709 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
3710 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl

3733 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
3734 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
3735 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this

3738 [Steve Henson]
3739
Dr. Stephen Hensondc90f642004-02-19 18:16:38 +00003740 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
3741 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
3742 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
3743 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
3744 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
3745 [Steve Henson]
3746
Dr. Stephen Hensond4575822004-02-01 13:39:51 +00003747 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when

Dr. Stephen Henson63b81552003-06-03 00:16:47 +00003795 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
3796 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
3797 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
3798 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a

3803 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
3804 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
3805 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening

3829 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors

3831 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared

Dr. Stephen Hensoncf566632003-02-12 17:06:02 +00003877 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
3878 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
3879 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
3880 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
3881
3882 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
3883
3884 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
3885
3886 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
3887
3888 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
3889 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
3890 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
3891 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
3892 root is omitted).

Richard Levittea1457872002-12-13 07:30:53 +00003946 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
3947 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
Richard Levitte14676ff2002-12-12 17:40:15 +00003948 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
3949 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
3950 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
3951 of libcrypto.
3952 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
3953 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have

4179
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004180 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
Dr. Stephen Hensone84be9b2002-02-23 01:00:44 +00004181 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4182 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4183 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4184 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4185 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4186 always load it have also been added.

4299 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,

4301
4302 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4303 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4304 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4305 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4306 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4307 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4308 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4309 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4310 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4311 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().

Richard Levitte2d57b732002-01-26 01:14:09 +00004351 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004352 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4353 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4354 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4355 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00004356
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004357 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4358 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4359 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4360 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4361
4362 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4363 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4364 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4365 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4366
4367 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4368 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4369 won't work.

4373 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004374 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the

4395 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004412 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00004413 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4414 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4415 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4416 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4417 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4418 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4419 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4420 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4421 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4422 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4423 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4424 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4425 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4426 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4427 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4428 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4429 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4430 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4431 the new code.

4444 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4445 false once a handshake has been completed.
4446 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4447 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4448 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4449 client has followed the request.)

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004474 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +00004475 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4476 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4477 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004480 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00004481 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4482 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4483 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4484 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4485 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4486 [Geoff Thorpe]
4487
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004488 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00004489 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4490 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4491 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4492 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4493 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4494 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4495 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4496 [Geoff Thorpe]
4497
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004498 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new

4500 [Geoff Thorpe]
4501
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004502 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.

4504
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004505 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00004506 md_data void pointer.
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00004507 [Ben Laurie]
4508
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004509 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00004510 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4511 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4512 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4513 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4514 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4515 [Ben Laurie]
4516
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004517 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00004518 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4519 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4520 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4521 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4522 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4523 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4524 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4525 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4526 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4527 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4528 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4529 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4530 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4531 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +00004532
4533 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4534 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4535 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00004536 [Geoff Thorpe]
4537
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004538 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +00004539 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4540 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4541 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4542 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4543 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
4544 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
4545 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
4546 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
4547 [Geoff Thorpe]
4548
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004549 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00004550 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
4551 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
4552 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
4553 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +00004554
4555 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".

4563
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004564 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
Dr. Stephen Henson35bf3542001-08-17 00:33:43 +00004565 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
4566 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
4567 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
4568 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
4569 [Steve Henson]
4570
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004571 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00004572 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +00004573 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00004574 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
4575 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
4576 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

4578
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004579 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
Bodo Möller76f8a1f2002-06-26 14:21:16 +00004580 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
4581 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00004582 Usage example:
4583
4584 EVP_MD_CTX md;
4585
4586 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
4587 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
4588 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
4589 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
4590 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */

4593
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004594 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
Ben Laurie8408f4f2001-07-31 13:33:58 +00004595 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
4596 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
4597 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00004598 anyway): E.g.,
4599
4600 des_key_schedule ks;
4601
4602 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
4603 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
4604
4605 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)

4607
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004608 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +00004609 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
4610 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
4611 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
4612 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
4613 functions prevents this.
4614 [Steve Henson]

4621 [Ben Laurie]
4622
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004623 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
Dr. Stephen Hensonee306a12001-07-12 20:41:51 +00004624 revocation information is handled using the text based index
4625 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
4626 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
4627 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.

4632
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004633 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
Richard Levitte0665dd62001-07-12 04:23:57 +00004634 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
4635 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
4636 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
4637
4638 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
4639 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
4640
4641 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004738 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
Dr. Stephen Henson926a56b2001-05-10 00:13:59 +00004739 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
4740 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
4741 [Steve Henson]
4742
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004743 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdee69f2001-05-09 00:30:39 +00004744 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
4745 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
4746 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
4747 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
4748 internally such as S/MIME.
4749
4750 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
4751 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
4752 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
4753
4754 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
4755 applications.
4756 [Steve Henson]
4757
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004758 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
Dr. Stephen Hensonb545dc62001-05-07 22:52:50 +00004759 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
4760 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
4761 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
4762
4763 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
4764
4765 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
4766
4767 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
4768 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
4769 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
4770 handling.
4771 [Steve Henson]
4772
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004773 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
Bodo Möller8a774dc2001-06-11 09:55:20 +00004774 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
4775 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
4776 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
4777 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
4778 a window system and the like.

4780
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004781 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00004782 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
4783 [Geoff]
4784
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004785 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00004786 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
4787 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
4788 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
4789 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
4790 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
4791 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
4792 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
4793 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
4794 ENGINE structure.
4795 [Geoff]
4796
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004797 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9624792001-04-21 12:06:01 +00004798 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
4799 tag cache.
4800 [Steve Henson]
4801
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004802 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00004803 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
4804 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
4805 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
4806 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
4807 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
4808 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
4809 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
4810 [Geoff]
4811
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004812 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00004813 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
4814 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
4815 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
4816 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
4817 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
4818 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
4819 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
4820 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
4821 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
4822 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
4823 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
4824 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
4825 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
4826 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
4827 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
4828 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
4829 [Geoff]
4830
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004831 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00004832 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
4833 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
4834 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
4835 internal engine_int.h header.
4836 [Geoff]
4837
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004838 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00004839 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
4840 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
4841 modify their own ones).
4842 [Geoff]
4843
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004844 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00004845 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
4846 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
4847 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
4848 later on via ctrl() commands.
4849 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
4850 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
4851 structural references.
4852 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
4853 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
4854 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
4855 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
4856 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Möllere13ae962001-09-10 18:59:53 +00004857 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00004858 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
4859 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
4860 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
4861 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
4862 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
4863 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
4864 [Geoff]
4865
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004866 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00004867 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +00004868 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
4869 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
4870 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
4871 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
4872 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
4873 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

4875
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004876 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
Dr. Stephen Henson722ca272001-04-02 00:59:19 +00004877 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
4878 [Steve Henson]
4879
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004880 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
Dr. Stephen Henson791bd0c2001-03-16 02:04:17 +00004881 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
4882 [Steve Henson]
4883
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004884 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
Dr. Stephen Henson535d79d2001-03-15 19:13:40 +00004885 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
4886 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
4887 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
4888 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
4889 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
4890 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004893 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication

Bodo Möller38374912001-03-11 12:27:24 +00004899 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004904 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
Bodo Möller48fe4d62001-03-10 23:18:35 +00004905
4906 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
4907 operations and provides various method functions that can also
4908 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
4909
4910 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
4911 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.

Bodo Möller6f8f4432001-03-10 23:37:52 +00004920 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)

4925 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
Bodo Möller6f8f4432001-03-10 23:37:52 +00004926 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
4927 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.

4929
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004930 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires

4932 [Richard Levitte]
4933
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004934 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4f682d2001-03-10 01:56:48 +00004935 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
4936 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
4937 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
4938 is 40 of more characters long.
4939 [Steve Henson]
4940
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004941 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures

4954
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004955 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
Bodo Möller5277d7c2001-03-07 01:19:07 +00004956
4957 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004987 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00004988 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
4989 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
4990 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
4991 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
4992 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
4993
4994 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
4995 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
4996
4997 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
4998 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
4999
5000 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5001 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5002
5003 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5004 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5005 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5006 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5007
5008 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005009 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00005010
5011 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005012 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00005013
5014 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5015 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5016 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5017 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5018 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005054 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00005055 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5056 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5057 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5058 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5059 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5060 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5061 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5062 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5063 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5064 [Steve Henson]
5065
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005066 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00005067 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5068 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5069 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5070 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5071 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5072 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5073 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5074
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005075 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
Richard Levitted399fdf2001-02-21 14:12:03 +00005076 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5077 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5078 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5079 [Richard Levitte]
5080
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005081 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00005082 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5083 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5084 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5085 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00005086 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5087 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5088 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5089 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5090 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5091 what is available.

5093
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005094 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
Dr. Stephen Hensonacba75c2001-02-19 13:38:32 +00005095 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5096 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5097 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5098 auto incremented.
5099 [Steve Henson]
5100
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005101 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6b7ffd2001-02-16 01:35:44 +00005102 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5103 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5104 [Steve Henson]
5105
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005106 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
Dr. Stephen Hensonf2e5ca82001-02-14 02:11:52 +00005107 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5108 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5109 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5110 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5111 [Steve Henson]
5112
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005113 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
Dr. Stephen Hensoncdc7b8c2001-02-14 01:12:41 +00005114 [Steve Henson]
5115
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005116 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
Dr. Stephen Henson67c18012001-02-13 00:37:44 +00005117 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5118 option to ocsp utility.
5119 [Steve Henson]
5120
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005121 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00005122 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5123 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5124 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5125 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5126 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5127 the request is nonce-less.
5128 [Steve Henson]
5129
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005130 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
Bodo Möller620cea32001-02-10 13:12:35 +00005131 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5132 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5133 [Bodo Moeller]
5134
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005135 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
Dr. Stephen Hensonccb08f92001-02-10 00:56:45 +00005136 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5137 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5138 [Steve Henson]
5139
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005140 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
Lutz Jänicke836f9962001-02-09 19:56:31 +00005141 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5142 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5143 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
Lutz Jänickeb72fadd2001-08-01 10:07:55 +00005144 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)

5146
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005147 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
Dr. Stephen Hensonc47c6192001-02-09 13:16:21 +00005148 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5149 appear to exist.
5150 [Steve Henson]
5151
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005152 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
Dr. Stephen Henson8c950422001-02-08 19:36:10 +00005153 additional certificates supplied.
5154 [Steve Henson]
5155
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005156 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
Richard Levitte9235adb2001-02-08 17:59:29 +00005157 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5158 signature against.
5159 [Richard Levitte]
5160
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005161 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00005162 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +00005163 AES OIDs.
5164
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00005165 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5166 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5167 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5168 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5169 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5170 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5171 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5172 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5173 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00005174
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005175 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
Dr. Stephen Henson26e083c2001-02-05 00:35:06 +00005176 request to response.
5177 [Steve Henson]
5178
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005179 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00005180 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5181 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5182 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5183 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005184 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00005185 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5186 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5187 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5188 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5189 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5190 [Steve Henson]
5191
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005192 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00005193 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005194 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00005195 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5196 [Steve Henson]
5197
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005198 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.

5200
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005201 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00005202 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005203 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.

5205
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005206 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00005207 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5208 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.

5211
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005212 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00005213 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.

5215 [Steve Henson]
5216
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005217 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00005218 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5219 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5220 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5221 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5222 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

5225
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005226 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00005227 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5228 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5229 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5230 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5231 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5232 [Steve Henson]
5233
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005234 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00005235 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5236 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5237 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5238 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5239 printout format cleaned up.
5240 [Steve Henson]
5241
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005242 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00005243 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5244 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5245 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5246 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5247 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5248 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5249 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5250 [Steve Henson]
5251
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005252 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00005253 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5254 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5255 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5256 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5257 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5258 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5259 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5260 [Steve Henson]
5261
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005262 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
Bodo Möllerdfebac32001-01-15 11:35:24 +00005263 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5264 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5265 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5266 section to use.

5268
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005269 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
Dr. Stephen Henson5782ceb2001-01-13 01:48:38 +00005270 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5271 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5272 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5273 [Steve Henson]
5274
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005275 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
Bodo Möllerc67cdb52001-01-12 14:50:44 +00005276 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5277 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5278 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates

5281
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005282 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
Bodo Möllerd1998582001-01-11 13:23:19 +00005283 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5284 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005290 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
Dr. Stephen Henson9b4dc832001-01-11 00:52:50 +00005291 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's

5293 [Steve Henson]
5294
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005295 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
Bodo Möller673b3fd2001-01-10 15:15:36 +00005296 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005300 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00005301 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5302 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5303 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5304 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5305 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5306 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5307 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +00005308
5309 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5310 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions

5313
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00005314 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5315 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5316 extended allocation function is enabled.
5317 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5318 a conventional allocation function is enabled.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005328 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00005329 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough

5333 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5334 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005337 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00005338 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5339 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5340 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5341 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5342 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5343 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5344 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5345 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005348 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00005349 provide utility functions which an application needing
5350 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5351 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5352 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5353
5354 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5355 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5356 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5357 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5358 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5359 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5360 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5361 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5362 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5363
5364 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5365 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5366 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5367 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5368 [Steve Henson]
5369
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005370 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00005371 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5372 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5373 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5374 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5375 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5376 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5377 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5378 will be added elsewhere.
5379 [Steve Henson]
5380
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005381 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf0d1762001-01-04 01:46:36 +00005382 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5383 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5384 can be used to send requests and parse the response.

5386
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005387 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00005388 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5389 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5390 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5391 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5392 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5393 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5394 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5395 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5396 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5397 to produce the required SET OF.
5398 [Steve Henson]
5399
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005400 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
Richard Levittea6574c22000-12-31 00:26:18 +00005401 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5402 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5403 [Richard Levitte]
5404
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005405 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
Dr. Stephen Hensonecbe0782000-12-31 01:13:04 +00005406 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5407 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5408 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5409 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5410 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005413 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
Dr. Stephen Henson4e1209e2000-12-30 02:40:26 +00005414 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5415 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5416 [Steve Henson]
5417
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005418 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
Richard Levitte3f07fe02000-12-29 00:05:14 +00005419 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5420 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5421 [Richard Levitte]
5422
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005423 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
Dr. Stephen Henson73e92de2000-12-28 22:24:50 +00005424 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5425 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5426 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5427 code will still work when these eventually go away.

5429
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005430 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the

5432 [Steve Henson]
5433
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005434 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
Dr. Stephen Henson57d2f212000-12-24 18:02:33 +00005435 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5436 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5437 certifcates and CRLs.
5438 [Steve Henson]
5439
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005440 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00005441 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5442 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5443 [Steve Henson]
5444
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005445 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005449 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +00005450 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5451 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5452 storing which locks are currently held by the program.

5454
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005455 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +00005456 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5457 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5458 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5459 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5460 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5461 [Bodo Moeller]
5462
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005463 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.

5465
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005466 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
Dr. Stephen Henson2c15d422000-12-14 18:42:28 +00005467 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
Dr. Stephen Hensonc08523d2000-12-15 13:42:00 +00005468 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.

5470
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005471 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
Dr. Stephen Hensonde487512000-12-14 00:53:10 +00005472 print routines.
5473 [Steve Henson]
5474
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005475 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
Dr. Stephen Henson06db4252000-12-13 23:54:30 +00005476 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5477 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5478 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5479 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5480 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5481 [Steve Henson]
5482
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005483 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.

5485
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005486 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
Dr. Stephen Henson2aff7722000-12-13 13:47:33 +00005487 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5488 for now but they will eventually go away.
5489 [Steve Henson]
5490
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005491 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00005492 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5493 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5494 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5495 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5496 has also been converted to the new form.

5498
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005499 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00005500 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5501 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5502 for negative moduli.
5503 [Bodo Moeller]
5504
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005505 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00005506 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5507 [Bodo Moeller]
5508
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005509 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
Bodo Möller80d89e62000-12-07 08:48:58 +00005510 set.
5511 [Bodo Moeller]
5512
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005513 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
Geoff Thorpef1919c32000-12-04 03:35:35 +00005514 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5515 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the

5517 [Geoff Thorpe]
5518
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005519 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in

5548 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
5549 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
5550 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
5551 [Bodo Moeller]
5552
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005553 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +00005554 sign of the number in question.
5555
5556 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
5557
5558 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
5559 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
5560 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
5561 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
5562 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().

5606 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
5607 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
5608
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005609 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00005610 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5611 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00005612 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5613 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00005614 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5615 differing sizes.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005619 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00005620 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
5621 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
5622 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
5623 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
5624
5625 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
5626 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
5627 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
5628 cause any problems.
5629 [Bodo Moeller]
5630
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005631 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
Richard Levitteccb96432000-11-08 17:51:37 +00005632 [Richard Levitte]
5633
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005634 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
Richard Levittee06433d2000-11-07 11:25:26 +00005635 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
5636 [Richard Levitte]
5637
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005638 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00005639 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
5640 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
5641 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
5642 time)
Richard Levitte10e473e2000-11-06 22:15:50 +00005643 [Richard Levitte]
5644
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005645 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
Richard Levittee7ef1a52000-11-06 22:03:00 +00005646 [Richard Levitte]
5647
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005648 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
Richard Levitte020fc822000-11-06 21:15:54 +00005649 [Richard Levitte]
5650
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005651 *) Add the following functions:
Richard Levitte11c0f122000-11-02 20:33:04 +00005652
5653 ENGINE_load_cswift()
5654 ENGINE_load_chil()
5655 ENGINE_load_atalla()
5656 ENGINE_load_nuron()
5657 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
5658
5659 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
5660 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
5661 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
5662 libraries unless it's really needed.
5663
5664 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
5665 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
5666 declarations (they differed!).
5667 [Richard Levitte]
5668
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005669 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
Richard Levitte69e78052000-11-02 19:24:48 +00005670 [Richard Levitte]
5671
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005672 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
Richard Levittee264cfe2000-11-02 18:58:43 +00005673 [Richard Levitte]
5674
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005675 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
Bodo Möller15d52dd2000-11-02 10:35:10 +00005676 [Bodo Moeller]
5677
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005678 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
Richard Levitte14c6d272000-11-01 02:57:35 +00005679 identity, and test if they are actually available.
5680 [Richard Levitte]
5681
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005682 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
Richard Levitte501ebf12000-10-31 23:26:32 +00005683 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
5684 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5685
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005686 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
Richard Levitte3aba98e2000-10-28 22:44:03 +00005687 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
5688 [Richard Levitte]
5689
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005690 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
Richard Levitte7c155332000-10-27 11:22:17 +00005691 [Richard Levitte]
5692
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005693 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
Richard Levitte5270e702000-10-26 21:07:28 +00005694 [Richard Levitte]
5695
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005696 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
Richard Levitte5270e702000-10-26 21:07:28 +00005697 [Ben Laurie]
5698
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005699 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
Richard Levitte5270e702000-10-26 21:07:28 +00005700 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
5701 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
5702
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005703 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
Geoff Thorpe1df586b2000-10-26 20:02:33 +00005704 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
5705 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
5706 different shared library filenames on each system.
5707 [Geoff Thorpe]
5708
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005709 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
Richard Levitte53400da2000-10-21 22:53:32 +00005710 [Richard Levitte]
5711
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005712 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
Dr. Stephen Henson627ec352000-10-20 00:36:45 +00005713 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
5714 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
5715 of two sections.
5716 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
5717
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005718 *) NCONF changes.
Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00005719 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
5720 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
5721 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
5722 binary backward compatibility.
5723 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
5724 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
5725 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
5726 LDAP server.
5727 [Richard Levitte]
5728
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005729 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
Dr. Stephen Henson924046c2000-10-12 01:50:33 +00005730 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
5731 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
5732 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
5733 this case.
5734 [Steve Henson]
5735
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005736 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
Richard Levitte3ab56512000-10-14 20:09:54 +00005737 [Ben Laurie]
5738
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005739 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
Dr. Stephen Henson8ca533e2000-10-06 11:51:47 +00005740 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
5741 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
5742 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
5743 set.
Dr. Stephen Hensond0c98582000-10-04 01:16:32 +00005744 [Steve Henson]
5745
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005746 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
Richard Levitteef71cb62000-10-01 21:46:43 +00005747 [Richard Levitte]
5748
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00005749 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
Dr. Stephen Henson29902442003-09-30 16:47:33 +00005750
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00005751 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00005752 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)

Dr. Stephen Henson29902442003-09-30 16:47:33 +00005754
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00005755 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
Dr. Stephen Henson29902442003-09-30 16:47:33 +00005756
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00005757 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
5758
5759 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00005760 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)

5762
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00005763 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
5764
Dr. Stephen Henson29902442003-09-30 16:47:33 +00005765 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5766
5767 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00005768 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
Dr. Stephen Henson29902442003-09-30 16:47:33 +00005769
5770 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5771 certificate signature with the NULL public key.

5773 [Steve Henson]
Richard Levitteed7f1d02003-06-19 18:59:27 +00005774
Dr. Stephen Henson14f3d7c2003-09-03 23:47:34 +00005775 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5776 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5777 specifications.
5778 [Steve Henson]
5779
Bodo Möllerddc38672003-07-21 15:17:46 +00005780 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5781 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5782 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).

5784
Bodo Möller02e05592003-07-21 15:08:01 +00005785 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
Richard Levittecf9a88c2003-06-19 19:04:13 +00005786 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5787 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levitteed7f1d02003-06-19 18:59:27 +00005788
Bodo Möller7a04fdd2003-04-11 15:03:12 +00005789 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
5790
5791 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5792 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5793 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5794 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5795 [Bodo Moeller]
5796
5797 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5798 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5799 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5800 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5801 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5802
5803 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5804 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5805 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5806 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5807 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5808 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5809 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5810 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5811 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5812 [Bodo Moeller]
5813
Richard Levitte5b0b0e92003-02-19 12:03:59 +00005814 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
5815
5816 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5817 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
5818 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5819 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00005820 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)

Richard Levittedf29cc82002-11-27 12:24:05 +00005828 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
5829 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
5830 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
5831 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
5832 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
5833 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.

5861
Geoff Thorpe9c3db402002-10-29 18:01:08 +00005862 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
5863 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
5864 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
5865 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
5866 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
5867 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
5868 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
5869 change.

5892 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.

Bodo Möller8e28c672002-08-12 08:45:00 +00005895 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]

Bodo Möller8e28c672002-08-12 08:45:00 +00005897 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
5898 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
5899 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]

5901 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
Bodo Möller5574e0e2002-08-02 11:48:15 +00005902
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9082262002-08-02 18:48:55 +00005903 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
5904 and get fix the header length calculation.
5905 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
5906 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
5907 Steve Henson]
5908
Bodo Möller5574e0e2002-08-02 11:48:15 +00005909 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
5910 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
5911 assertions could call abort()).
5912 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00005913
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00005914 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
5915
5916 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
5917 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
5918 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
5919 supplied buffer.
5920 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00005921
Lutz Jänicke063a8902002-07-10 06:41:55 +00005922 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
5923 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
5924 by the selection routines (PR #130).
5925 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5926
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00005927 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
5928 [Nils Larsch]
5929
Bodo Möllerc21506b2002-06-14 12:21:11 +00005930 *) New option
5931 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
5932 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
5933 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
5934
5935 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
5936 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
5937 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
5938 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
5939 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
5940 applications.
5941 [Bodo Moeller]
5942
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00005943 *) Changes in security patch:
5944
5945 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
5946 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
5947 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
5948 F30602-01-2-0537.
5949
5950 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
5951 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
5952 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00005953 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00005954 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
5955
5956 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
5957 happen in practice.
5958 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5959
5960 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00005961 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00005962 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
5963
5964 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00005965 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00005966 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5967
5968 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00005969 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)

5971
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00005972 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00005973
Bodo Möller8df61b52002-04-26 08:28:34 +00005974 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
5975 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
5976 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
5977
Bodo Möller1064aca2002-04-17 09:31:34 +00005978 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
5979 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5980
Lutz Jänicke2940a122002-04-15 09:55:40 +00005981 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
5982 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
5983 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
5984 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
5985 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
5986 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
5987 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5988
Bodo Möller82b0bf02002-04-13 22:47:20 +00005989 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
5990 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
5991 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
5992 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
5993 [Bodo Moeller]
5994
5995 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
5996 [Bodo Moeller]
5997
5998 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
5999 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6000 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6001 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6002 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6003 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6004
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006005 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6006 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6007 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6008 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6009 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6010 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6011
6012 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6013 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6014 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6015 BN_generate_prime().)
6016
6017 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6018 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6019 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6020 better.
6021 [Bodo Moeller]
6022
6023 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6024 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6025 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6026
6027 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6028 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6029 when using non-blocking I/O.
6030 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6031
6032 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6033 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6034
6035 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6036 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6037 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6038
6039 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6040 configuration for the versions before that.
6041 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6042
6043 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6044 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6045 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6046 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6047 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6048
6049 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6050 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6051 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6052 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6053
6054 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6055 value is 0.
6056 [Richard Levitte]
6057
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006058 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6059 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6060 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6061
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00006062 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6063 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6064
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006065 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6066 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6067 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6068 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6069 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6070 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6071 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6072 session cache.
6073
6074 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6075 using a local variable.
6076 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6077
6078 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6079 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6080 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6081
6082 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6083 [Richard Levitte]
6084
6085 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6086 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6087
6088 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6089 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6090 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6091
6092 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6093
6094 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6095 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6096 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6097 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6098 [Bodo Moeller]
6099
6100 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6101 present.
6102 [Steve Henson]
6103
6104 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6105 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6106 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6107 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6108 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6109
6110 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6111 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6112 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6113
6114 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6115 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6116 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6117
6118 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6119 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6120 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6121 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6122
6123 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6124 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6125 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6126 modules).
6127 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6128
6129 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6130 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6131 from 0.9.7.
6132 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6133
6134 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6135 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6136 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6137 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6138
6139 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6140 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6141 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6142 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6143
6144 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6145 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6146
6147 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6148 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6149 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6150 [Bodo Moeller]
6151
6152 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6153 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6154 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6155 become invalid.
6156 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6157
6158 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6159 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6160 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6161 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6162 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6163 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6164 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6165 [Bodo Moeller]
6166
6167 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6168 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6169 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6170 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6171
6172 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6173 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6174 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6175 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6176 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6177 the client will at least see that alert.
6178 [Bodo Moeller]
6179
6180 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6181 correctly.
6182 [Bodo Moeller]
6183
6184 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6185 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6186 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6187
6188 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6189 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6190 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6191 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6192 HelloRequest.
6193
6194 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6195 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6196 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6197
6198 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6199 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6200 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6201 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6202 may leak via logfiles.)
6203
6204 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6205 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6206 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6207 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6208 the legal range.
6209 [Bodo Moeller]
6210
6211 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6212 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6213 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6214
6215 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6216 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6217 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6218 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6219 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6220 [Bodo Moeller]
6221
6222 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6223 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6224
6225 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6226 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6227 followed by modular reduction.
6228 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6229
6230 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6231 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6232 [Bodo Moeller]
6233
6234 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6235 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6236 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6237 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6238 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6239
6240 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6241 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6242
6243 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6244 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6245 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6246
6247 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6248 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6249 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6250 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6251 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6252 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6253 automatically.
6254 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6255
6256 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6257 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6258 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6259 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6260 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6261
6262 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6263 [Andy Polyakov]
6264
6265 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6266 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6267 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6268 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6269 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6270 to allow the necessary settings.
6271 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6272
6273 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6274 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6275 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6276 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6277 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6278
6279 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6280 dh->length and always used
6281
6282 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6283
6284 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6285 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6286 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6287 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6288 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6289 dh->length.
6290
6291 So switch back to
6292
6293 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6294
6295 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6296 otherwise.
6297 [Bodo Moeller]
6298
6299 *) In
6300
6301 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6302 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6303 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6304 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6305
6306 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6307 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6308 always reject numbers >= n.
6309 [Bodo Moeller]
6310
6311 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6312 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6313 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6314 variable) is not atomic.
6315 [Bodo Moeller]
6316
6317 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6318 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6319 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6320 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6321
6322 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6323 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6324
6325 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6326 little-endian MIPS.
6327 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6328
6329 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6330 [Richard Levitte]
6331
6332 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6333
6334 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6335 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6336 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6337 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6338 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6339 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6340 to traverse all of 'state'.
6341
6342 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6343 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6344 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6345
6346 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6347 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6348
6349 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6350 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6351 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6352 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6353 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6354 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6355 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6356 further strengthens the PRNG.
6357 [Bodo Moeller]
6358
6359 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6360 [Andy Polyakov]
6361
6362 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6363 an error message in this case.
6364 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6365
6366 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6367 [Steve Henson]
6368
6369 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6370 positive and less than q.
6371 [Bodo Moeller]
6372
6373 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6374 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6375 that itself.
6376 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6377
6378 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6379 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6380 [Bodo Moeller]
6381
6382 *) Fix OAEP check.
6383 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6384
6385 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6386 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6387 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6388 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6389 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6390 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6391 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6392 paper.)
6393
6394 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6395 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6396 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6397 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6398
6399 Both problems are now fixed.
6400 [Bodo Moeller]
6401
6402 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6403 (previously it was 1024).
6404 [Bodo Moeller]
6405
6406 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6407 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6408 [Steve Henson]
6409
6410 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6411 [Steve Henson]
6412
6413 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6414 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6415 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6416 [Steve Henson]
6417
6418 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6419 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6420 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6421 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6422 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6423 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6424 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6425 environment variables.
6426
6427 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6428 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6429 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6430 [Bodo Moeller]
6431
6432 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6433 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6434 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6435 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6436 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6437 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6438 [Bodo Moeller]
6439
6440 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6441 versions of 'test'.
6442 [Bodo Moeller]
6443
6444 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6445
6446 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6447 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6448
6449 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6450 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6451 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6452 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6453 CygWin.
6454 [Richard Levitte]
6455
6456 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6457 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6458 amount of data available.
6459 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6460 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6461
6462 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6463 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6464 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6465 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6466 [Bodo Moeller]
6467
6468 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6469 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6470 and UnixWare.
6471 [Richard Levitte]
6472
6473 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6474 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6475 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6476 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6477 [Ulf Moeller]
6478
6479 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6480 [Andy Polyakov]
6481
6482 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6483 [Richard Levitte]
6484
6485 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6486 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6487 [Steve Henson]
6488 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6489
6490 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6491 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6492 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6493 (but broken) behaviour.
6494 [Steve Henson]
6495
6496 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6497 it when found.
6498 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6499
6500 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6501 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6502 [Bodo Moeller]
6503
6504 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6505 did not exist.
6506 [Bodo Moeller]
6507
6508 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6509 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6510
6511 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6512 [Richard Levitte]
6513
6514 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6515 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6516 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6517
6518 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6519 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6520 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6521 [Steve Henson]
6522
6523 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6524 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6525 [Ulf Moeller]
6526
6527 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6528 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6529
6530 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6531
6532 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6533
6534 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6535 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6536 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6537 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6538 [Bodo Moeller]
6539
6540 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6541 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6542
6543 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
6544 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
6545 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6546
6547 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
6548 was empty.
6549 [Steve Henson]
6550 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6551
6552 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
6553 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
6554 but the code is actually correct.
6555 [Steve Henson]
6556
6557 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
6558 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
6559 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
6560 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
6561 and leaves the highest bit random.
6562 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6563
6564 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
6565 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
6566 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
6567 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
6568 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
6569 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
6570 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
6571 [Bodo Moeller]
6572
6573 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
6574 [Ulf Moeller]
6575
6576 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
6577 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
6578 [Steve Henson]
6579
6580 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
6581 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
6582 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
6583 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
6584 headers.
6585 [Richard Levitte]
6586
6587 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
6588 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
6589 and break the signature.
6590 [Steve Henson]
6591 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6592
6593 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
6594 DH ciphersuites.
6595 [Steve Henson]
6596
6597 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
6598 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
6599 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
6600 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
6601 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
6602 [Bodo Moeller]
6603
6604 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
6605 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6606
6607 *) ./config script fixes.
6608 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
6609
6610 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
6611 [Bodo Moeller]
6612
6613 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
6614 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
6615 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
6616 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
6617 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
6618
6619 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
6620 call failed, free the DSA structure.
6621 [Bodo Moeller]
6622
6623 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
6624 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
6625 [Steve Henson]
6626
6627 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
6628 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
6629 when writing a 32767 byte record.
6630 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
6631
6632 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
6633 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
6634
6635 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
6636 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
6637 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
6638 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
6639 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
6640
6641 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
6642 [Bodo Moeller]
6643
6644 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
6645 [Ulf Möller]
6646
6647 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
6648 [Ulf Möller]
6649
6650 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
6651 [Bodo Moeller]
6652
6653 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
6654 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
6655 [Bodo Moeller]
6656
6657 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
6658 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
6659 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
6660 result of the server certificate verification.)
6661 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6662
6663 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
6664 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
6665 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
6666 [Bodo Moeller]
6667
6668 *) Fix SSL_peek:
6669 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
6670 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
6671 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
6672 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
6673 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
6674 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
6675 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
6676 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
6677 [Bodo Moeller]
6678
6679 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
6680 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
6681 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
6682 happening the other way round.
6683 [Geoff Thorpe]
6684
6685 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
6686 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
6687 [Bodo Moeller]
6688
6689 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
6690 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
6691 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
6692 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
6693 [Richard Levitte]
6694
6695 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
6696 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
6697
6698 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
6699
6700 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
6701 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
6702 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
6703 that.
6704
6705 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
6706
6707 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
6708
6709 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
6710 static ones.
6711 [Richard Levitte]
6712
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00006713 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
6714
6715 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
6716 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
6717 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
6718 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
6719 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
6720
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00006721 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
6722 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
6723 matter what.
6724 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00006725
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00006726 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
6727 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6728
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00006729 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00006730
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00006731 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
6732 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
6733 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
6734 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
6735 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00006736 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00006737 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
6738 by the Finished messages.
6739 [Bodo Moeller]
6740
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00006741 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
6742 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
6743
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00006744 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
6745 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
6746 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
6747 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
6748 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
6749 appropriately.
6750 [Steve Henson]
6751
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00006752 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
6753 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
6754 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
6755 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
6756 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
6757 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
6758 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
6759 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
6760 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
6761 together.

Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00006764 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
6765 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
6766 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
6767 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
6768
6769 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
6770 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
6771 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
6772 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
6773 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
6774 the answer.
6775
6776 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
6777 been tested well enough.

6779
Bodo Möllerfe035192000-09-19 23:25:00 +00006780 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,

6800 [Ulf Möller]
6801
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00006802 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
6803 packages. The default package contains applications, application
6804 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
6805 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The

Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00006820 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
6821 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
6822 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
6823 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
6824 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
6825 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
6826 just makes things more complicated.)
6827 [Bodo Moeller]
6828
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00006829 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read

6831 [Ben Laurie]
6832
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +00006833 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'

6838 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
6839 keyid to the certificates aux info.
6840 [Steve Henson]
6841
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +00006842 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop

6844 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
6845
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +00006846 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
6847 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
6848 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
6849 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
6850 [Richard Levitte]
6851
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00006852 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
6853 rather than always using the current time.
6854 [Steve Henson]
6855
6856 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
6857 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
6858 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
6859 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
6860 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
6861 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00006862
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00006863 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
6864 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00006865
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00006866 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00006867
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00006868 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
6869 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
6870 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
6871 the same hash value.
6872
6873 As a result various functions (which were all internal
6874 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
6875 structure. This will break anything that messed round
6876 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00006877
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00006878 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
6879 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00006880
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00006881 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
6882 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
6883 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
6884 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
6885 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
6886 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
6887 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00006888
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00006889 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
6890
6891 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
6892 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
6893 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
6894 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
6895 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
6896 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
6897 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
6898 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
6899
6900 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
6901 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
6902
6903 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
6904 to customise the verify behaviour.

Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00006906
Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00006907 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
6908 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
6909 [Steve Henson]
6910
6911 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
6912 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
6913 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
6914 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
6915 request is improperly encoded.

6917
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00006918 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call

6920 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00006921

6950 [Steve Henson]
6951
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00006952 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a

6966
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00006967 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
6968 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
6969 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
6970 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
6971 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
6972 [Steve Henson]
6973
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00006974 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
6975 [Richard Levitte]
6976
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00006977 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
6978 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
6979 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
6980
6981 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
6982 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
6983 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
6984 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
6985 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
6986 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
6987 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
6988 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
6989
6990 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
6991 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
6992
6993 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
6994
6995 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
6996 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
6997 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE

7011 [Richard Levitte]
7012
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00007013 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7014 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7015 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7016 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7017 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7018 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7019 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7020 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7021 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7022 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7023 short or long names are found.

Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00007029 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in

7033
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00007034 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7035 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the

7039
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00007040 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl

7043 [Richard Levitte]
7044
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00007045 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7046 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7047 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7048 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7049 to allow the various flags to be set.
7050 [Steve Henson]
7051
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00007052 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7053 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7054 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7055 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7056 dates to be checked.
7057 [Steve Henson]
7058
7059 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7060 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7061 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7062 [Steve Henson]
7063
7064 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7065 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7066 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.

7091 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7092 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be

Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00007100 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7101 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7102 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7103 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7104 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7105 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7106 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7107 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7108 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7109 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.

Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00007112 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7113
7114 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7115 the syntax given in objects.README.
7116 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7117 obj_mac.h.
7118 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7119 obj_mac.h.
7120
7121 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7122 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7123 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7124 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7125 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7126 consistent name changes.

7128
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00007129 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7130 [Bodo Moeller]
7131
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00007132 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00007133 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7134 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7135 environment variable, or the default random state file.

7137
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00007138 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7139 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7140 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7141 of safestack.h .
7142 [Steve Henson]
7143
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00007144 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7145 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7146 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7147 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7148 [Steve Henson]
7149
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00007150 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7151 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7152 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7153 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7154 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7155 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7156 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7157 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7158 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00007159 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7160 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00007161 [Steve Henson]
7162
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00007163 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7164 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7165 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7166 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7167 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7168 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7169 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7170 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7171 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7172 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7173 [Steve Henson]
7174
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00007175 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7176 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7177 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7178 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7179
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00007180 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7181 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7182 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7183 omit any duplicate addresses.
7184 [Steve Henson]
7185
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00007186 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7187 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7188 [Bodo Moeller]
7189
7190 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7191 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7192 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7193 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7194 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7195 [Bodo Moeller]
7196
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00007197 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7198 software:
7199 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7200 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7201 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7202 Free => OPENSSL_free
7203 [Richard Levitte]
7204
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00007205 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7206 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
Bodo Möller6dad7bd2000-06-07 21:29:25 +00007207 [Bodo Moeller]
7208
Ulf Möllerbe5d92e2000-06-03 23:23:10 +00007209 *) CygWin32 support.
7210 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7211
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00007212 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7213 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7214 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7215 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7216 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7217 approach.
7218 [Geoff Thorpe]
7219
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00007220 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7221 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7222 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7223 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7224 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7225 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7226 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7227 [Geoff Thorpe]
7228
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00007229 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7230 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7231 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7232 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7233 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7234 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7235 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7236 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7237 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7238 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7239 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7240 [Bodo Moeller]
7241
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00007242 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7243 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7244 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7245 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7246 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7247
7248 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7249 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7250 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7251 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7252 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7253
7254 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7255 ciphers.
7256
7257 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00007258 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7259 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7260 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7261
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00007262 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7263
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00007264 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7265 of macros.
7266
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00007267 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7268 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7269 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7270 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00007271
7272 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7273 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7274 any installed hardware versions can.
Dr. Stephen Henson7f060602000-05-26 23:51:35 +00007275 [Steve Henson]
7276
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007277 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7278 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7279 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7280 number.
7281 [Bodo Moeller]
7282
7283 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7284 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7285 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7286 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).

7288
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4b41f42000-05-24 13:09:59 +00007289 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7290 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7291 [Steve Henson]
7292
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00007293 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7294 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7295 [Richard Levitte]
7296
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00007297 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7298 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7299 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7300 features.

Dr. Stephen Henson0cb957a2000-05-04 23:03:49 +00007306 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7307 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7308 but no ssl client purpose.
7309 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7310
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00007311 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7312 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7313 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7314 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7315 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7316 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7317 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7318 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7319 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7320 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7321 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.

7323
Bodo Möller316e6a62000-05-02 20:29:03 +00007324 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use

7328
Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00007329 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7330 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7331 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7332 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7333 [Bodo Moeller]
7334
Ulf Möller39736282000-04-27 15:06:26 +00007335 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7336 [Ulf Möller]
7337
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00007338 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7339 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7340 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7341 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7342 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7343 [Geoff Thorpe]
7344
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00007345 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7346 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7347 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7348 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7349 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7350 [Geoff Thorpe]
7351
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00007352 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7353 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7354 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7355 may not be NULL.

7357
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007358 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7359 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7360 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7361 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7362 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7363 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7364 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7365 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7366 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7367 or "the configuration storage API"...
7368
7369 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7370
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007371 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,

Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007376 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007377
7378 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7379 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7380 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7381 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7382 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7383 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7384 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7385
7386 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7387 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7388 [Richard Levitte]
7389
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00007390 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7391 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7392 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional

Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00007449 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7450 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7451 its own key.
7452 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7453 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7454 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7455 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7456 [Bodo Moeller]
7457
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00007458 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7459 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7460 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7461 does not suppress any output.
7462 [Richard Levitte]
7463
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00007464 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00007465 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7466 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7467 with all the associated security issues.
7468
7469 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7470 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7471 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7472 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7473 use the value in the default purpose.
7474 [Steve Henson]
7475
Dr. Stephen Henson48fe0ee2000-03-07 01:03:33 +00007476 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7477 and fix a memory leak.
7478 [Steve Henson]
7479
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00007480 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7481 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7482 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7483 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7484 [Bodo Moeller]
7485
Bodo Möller0a150c52000-03-04 01:36:53 +00007486 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7487 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7488 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7489 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7490 [Bodo Moeller]
7491
Bodo Möller41918452000-03-03 22:18:19 +00007492 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7493 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7494 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7495 [Bodo Moeller]
7496
7497 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7498 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7499 [Bodo Moeller]
7500
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00007501 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7502 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7503 which was free.
7504 [Steve Henson]
7505
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00007506 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7507 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7508 [Bodo Moeller]
7509
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00007510 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7511 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7512 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7513 [Bodo Moeller]
7514
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00007515 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7516 number generation fails.
7517 [Bodo Moeller]
7518
Bodo Möller55f7d652000-03-01 07:57:25 +00007519 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.

Richard Levitte74cdf6f2000-02-28 11:59:02 +00007534 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00007535
Dr. Stephen Henson82b93182000-02-28 14:11:19 +00007536 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7537 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7538 [Steve Henson]
7539
Dr. Stephen Henson587bb0e2000-02-27 17:34:30 +00007540 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7541 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7542
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00007543 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
Andy Polyakova5770be2000-02-27 02:34:37 +00007544 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00007545 [Ulf Möller]
7546
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00007547 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
7548 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
7549 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
7550 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
7551 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
7552 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
7553
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00007554 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
7555 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
7556 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
7557 for example.
7558 [Steve Henson]
7559
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00007560 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
7561 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
7562 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
7563 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
7564 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
7565 counter, some don't.)
7566 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
7567 counters or duplicate objects.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc7cb16a2000-02-26 01:55:33 +00007568 [Steve Henson]
7569
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00007570 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
7571 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
7572 [Steve Henson]
7573
Ulf Möller505b5a02000-02-24 22:57:42 +00007574 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
7575 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
7576 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
7577
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00007578 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
7579 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
7580 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
7581 or -rand.
7582 [Ulf Möller]
7583
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00007584 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
7585 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
7586 [Steve Henson]
7587
7588 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
7589 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
7590 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
7591 cipher list.
7592 [Steve Henson]
7593
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00007594 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
7595 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
7596 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
7597 [Steve Henson]
7598
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00007599 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
7600 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
7601 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
7602 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
7603 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
7604 should work without changes.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00007605 [Richard Levitte]
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00007606
7607 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
7608 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
7609 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
7610 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
7611 must be defined. E.g.,
7612 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
7613 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
7614 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.

Bodo Möllerb35e9052000-02-20 23:04:06 +00007617 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
7618 record layer.
7619 [Bodo Moeller]
7620
Dr. Stephen Hensond754b382000-02-20 18:27:23 +00007621 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
7622 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
7623 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
7624 [Steve Henson]
7625
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00007626 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
7627 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
7628 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
7629 request header lines. Some software needs this.
7630 [Steve Henson]
7631
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00007632 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
7633 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
7634 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
7635 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
7636 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
7637 is prompted for as usual.
7638 [Steve Henson]
7639
Ben Lauriebd03b992000-02-16 22:15:39 +00007640 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
7641 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
7642 autodetect the card and use it if present.
7643 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
7644
Dr. Stephen Hensonde469ef2000-02-15 14:19:44 +00007645 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
7646 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
7647 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
7648 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
7649 [Steve Henson]
7650
Andy Polyakovbcba6cc2000-02-12 23:33:01 +00007651 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
7652 [Andy Polyakov]
7653
Dr. Stephen Hensond13e4eb2000-02-12 03:03:04 +00007654 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
7655 of seed file.
7656 [Steve Henson]
7657
Bodo Möller3ebf0be2000-02-11 17:18:50 +00007658 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.

7660
Dr. Stephen Hensonf07fb9b2000-02-08 01:34:59 +00007661 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
7662 [Steve Henson]
7663
Ulf Möllercae55bf2000-02-06 15:56:59 +00007664 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
7665 bits.
7666 [Ulf Möller]
7667
7668 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
7669 [Ulf Möller]
7670
Andy Polyakov0fad6cb2000-02-06 11:15:20 +00007671 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
7672 [Andy Polyakov]
7673
Ulf Möller4a6222d2000-02-06 00:25:39 +00007674 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
7675 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
7676 [Ulf Möller]
7677
Dr. Stephen Henson66430202000-02-05 21:07:56 +00007678 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
7679 options to produce them.
7680 [Steve Henson]
7681
Ulf Möller9b141122000-02-05 14:17:32 +00007682 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
7683 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
7684 [Ulf Möller]
7685
7686 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
7687 for p == 0.
7688 [Ulf Möller]
7689
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00007690 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
7691 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
7692 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
7693 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
7694 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
7695 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
7696 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
7697 [Steve Henson]
7698
Dr. Stephen Henson82fc1d92000-02-03 02:56:48 +00007699 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
7700 [Steve Henson]
7701
Bodo Möllere74231e2000-02-02 21:20:44 +00007702 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
7703 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
7704 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
7705 [Bodo Moeller]

7709
Ulf Möller98d0b2e2000-01-30 23:34:33 +00007710 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
7711 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
7712 [Ulf Möller]
7713
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00007714 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
7715 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
7716 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
7717 has already seen).
7718 [Bodo Moeller]
7719
7720 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
7721 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
7722
7723 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
7724 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
7725 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
7726 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
7727 generation becomes much faster.
7728
7729 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00007730 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
7731 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
7732 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
7733 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
7734 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
7735 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
7736 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
7737 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
7738 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00007739 [Bodo Moeller]
7740
Bodo Möller7865b872000-01-30 02:40:38 +00007741 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00007742 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
7743 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
7744 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00007745 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
7746 trial division stage.

7784 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
7785 Rabin-Miller iterations.

7787
7788 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
7789 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
7790 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
7791 [Ulf Möller]
7792
Dr. Stephen Henson09483c52000-01-22 13:58:29 +00007793 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
7794 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
7795 (instead of parameters) in future.
7796 [Steve Henson]
7797
Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00007798 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00007802 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
7803 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
7804 wrong.
7805
7806 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
7807 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
7808 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
7809
7810 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
7811 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
7812 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
7813 an error is flagged.
7814
7815 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
7816 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
7817 the readability was also increased :-)

Dr. Stephen Henson81004902000-01-21 02:42:14 +00007820 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
7821 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
7822 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
7823 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
7824 as the root CA.

7829 [Steve Henson]
7830
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00007831 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
7832 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
7833 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
7834 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
7835 instead.
7836
7837 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
7838 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
7839 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
7840 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00007841 because they handle more complex structures.)

Ulf Möllereb952082000-01-13 20:59:17 +00007849 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00007850 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
7851 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00007852 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00007853 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
7854 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
7855 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).

Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00007858 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,

Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00007860 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00007861 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a

7867
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00007868 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
7869 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00007870 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
7871 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
7872 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
7873 to use this.
7874
7875 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
7876 code.
7877 [Steve Henson]
7878
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00007879 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
7880 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
7881 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
7882 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
7883 [Steve Henson]
7884
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007885 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
7886 [Ulf Möller]
7887
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00007888 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
7889 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
7890 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
7891 international characters are used.
7892
7893 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
7894 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
7895 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
7896 in ASN1 order.
7897 [Steve Henson]
7898
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00007899 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
7900 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
7901 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
7902 request.
7903
7904 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
7905 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
7906 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
7907 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007908 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00007909 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
7910
7911 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
7912 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
7913 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007914 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00007915
7916 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
7917 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
7918 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
7919 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
7920 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
7921 types at all.
7922 [Steve Henson]
7923
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00007924 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
7925 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
7926 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
7927 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
7928 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
7929
7930 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
7931 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
7932 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
7933 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.

7935
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00007936 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
7937 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007938 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00007939 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
7940 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
7941 SHA1.
7942 [Andy Polyakov]
7943
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00007944 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
7945 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
7946 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
7947 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
7948 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
7949 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
7950 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
7951 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
7952
7953 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
7954 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00007955 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.

7957
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00007958 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
7959 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
7960 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
7961 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
7962 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
7963 support to pkcs8 application.
7964 [Steve Henson]
7965
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00007966 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
7967 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
7968 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
7969 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
7970 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
7971 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
7972 [Bodo Moeller]
7973
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00007974 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
7975 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
7976 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
7977 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
7978 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
7979 consistency.
7980 [Bodo Moeller]
7981
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00007982 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
7983 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
7984 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
7985 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
7986 example.
7987 [Steve Henson]
7988
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00007989 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
7990 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
7991 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
7992 and any application specific purposes.
7993
7994 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
7995 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
7996 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
7997 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00007998 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00007999 if the certificate is self signed.
8000 [Steve Henson]
8001
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00008002 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8003 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8004 [Steve Henson]
8005
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00008006 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8007 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00008008 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line

8010 [Steve Henson]
8011
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00008012 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8013 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8014 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8015 Update documentation.
8016 [Steve Henson]
8017
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00008018 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8019 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008020 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00008021 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8022 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.

Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00008029 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and

8031 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00008032 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8033 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8034 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00008035 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8036 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8037 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8038 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00008039
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008040 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8041
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00008042 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8043 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8044 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8045 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8046 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008047
8048 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8049 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00008050 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8051 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8052 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8053 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8054 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8055 request additional information:
8056 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8057 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008058
8059 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8060 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8061 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8062 options.
8063
8064 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8065 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8066
8067 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8068 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8069 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8070
8071 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.

8083
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00008084 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8085 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8086 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8087 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8088 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8089 included in OpenSSL.
8090 [Steve Henson]
8091
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00008092 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8093 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8094 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8095 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8096 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8097 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8098 [Bodo Moeller]
8099
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00008100 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a

8102 [Steve Henson]
8103
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00008104 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8105 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8106 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8107 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8108 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8109 structure.
8110 [Steve Henson]
8111
8112 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8113 need initialising.
8114 [Steve Henson]
8115
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00008116 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8117 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8118 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8119 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8120 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8121 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8122 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8123 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8124 be maintained manually.
8125
8126 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8127 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8128 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8129 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8130 work because people forget to call this function]
8131 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8132 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8133 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8134 [Steve Henson]
8135
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00008136 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8137 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8138 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8139 should be discouraged from doing it.
8140 [Ben Laurie]
8141
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00008142 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8143 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8144 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8145 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8146 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8147 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8148 [Steve Henson]
8149
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008150 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8151 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8152 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008153
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008154 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00008155 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8156 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008157
8158 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8159 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8160 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8161 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8162 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8163 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00008164
8165 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8166 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8167 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008168
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00008169 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8170 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8171 and vice versa.
8172
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008173 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8174 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8175 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8176 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00008177 [Steve Henson]
8178
8179 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00008180 [Steve Henson]
8181
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008182 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8183 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8184 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8185 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8186 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008187 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008188 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8189 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8190 keys so we should be OK.
8191
8192 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8193 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8194 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8195 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8196 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8197 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008198 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008199
8200 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8201 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8202 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8203
8204 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00008205 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8206 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8207 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8208 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8209 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8210 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008211 [Steve Henson]
8212
8213 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8214 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8215 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8216 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8217 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8218 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8219 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8220 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8221 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8222 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8223 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8224 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8225 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8226 [Steve Henson]
8227
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00008228 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8229 [Steve Henson]
8230
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00008231 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8232 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8233 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8234 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8235 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8236 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8237 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8238 openssl verify ss.pem
8239 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8240 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8241 is OK.
8242 [Steve Henson]
8243
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00008244 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8245 (and add it to external session representation).
8246 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8247 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8248 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8249 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8250 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8251 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8252 security holes.
8253 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8254
Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00008255 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8256 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8257 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00008258 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]

Dr. Stephen Hensonfd699ac1999-11-16 02:49:25 +00008260 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8261 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8262 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8263 [Steve Henson]
8264
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00008265 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8266 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8267 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8268 code.
8269 [Steve Henson]
8270
Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00008271 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8272 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
Mark J. Coxb7cfcfb1999-11-15 16:31:31 +00008273 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8274
Dr. Stephen Henson06556a11999-11-14 23:10:50 +00008275 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8276 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8277 certificate auxiliary information.
8278 [Steve Henson]
8279
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00008280 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8281 the 'enc' command.
8282 [Steve Henson]
8283
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00008284 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8285 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00008286 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8287 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8288 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8289 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8290 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00008291 [Richard Levitte]
8292
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00008293 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
Dr. Stephen Henson954ef7e1999-11-12 01:42:25 +00008294 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8295 [Steve Henson]
8296
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00008297 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8298 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8299 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8300 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8301 [Steve Henson]
8302
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00008303 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8304 [Steve Henson]
8305
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00008306 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8307 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8308 [Steve Henson]
8309
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00008310 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8311 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8312 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8313 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8314 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008315 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00008316 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8317 using the new 'x509' options.
8318
8319 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8320 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8321 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8322 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8323 for all purposes.
8324 [Steve Henson]
8325
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00008326 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8327 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8328 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8329 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8330 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
Mark J. Coxce2c95b1999-11-03 14:10:10 +00008331 [Mark Cox]
8332
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00008333 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8334 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8335 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8336 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8337 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008338 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00008339 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8340 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8341 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8342 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8343 [Steve Henson]
8344
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00008345 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8346 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8347 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8348 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8349 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8350 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8351 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8352 [Steve Henson]
8353
8354 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8355 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8356 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8357 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8358 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8359 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8360 openssl.cnf for more info.
8361 [Steve Henson]
8362
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00008363 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00008364 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00008365 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8366 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8367 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8368 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8369 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8370 md should be large enough anyway.
8371 [Bodo Moeller]
8372
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008373 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8374 for handling the random seed file.
8375
8376 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8377 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008378 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008379 s_client,
8380 s_server,
8381 x509 (when signing).
8382 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8383 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00008384 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008385
8386 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008387 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008388 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008389 that support '-rand'.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008390 [Bodo Moeller]
8391
8392 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8393 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8394 [Bodo Moeller]
8395
8396 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8397 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8398 [Bill Perry]
8399
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00008400 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8401 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8402 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8403 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8404 is suitable.
8405 [Steve Henson]
8406
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00008407 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8408 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8409 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8410 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8411 [Steve Henson]
8412
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00008413 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8414 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8415 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8416 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8417 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8418 print out all the purposes.
8419 [Steve Henson]
8420
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00008421 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8422 functions.
8423 [Steve Henson]
8424
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00008425 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8426 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8427 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8428 single function call.
8429 [Steve Henson]
8430
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00008431 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8432 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8433 [Andy Polyakov]
8434
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00008435 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8436 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8437 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8438 [Steve Henson]
8439
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00008440 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8441 when producing the local key id.
8442 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8443
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00008444 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8445 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8446 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8447 "server.pem".
8448 [Steve Henson]
8449
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00008450 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8451 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8452 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8453 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8454 [Steve Henson]
8455
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00008456 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8457 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8458 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8459 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8460
8461 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8462 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8463 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8464 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8465
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00008466 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8467 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8468 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8469 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8470 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8471 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8472 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8473 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8474 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8475 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8476 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8477 trivial: move one line.
8478 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8479
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00008480 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8481 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8482 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8483 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8484 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8485 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8486 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8487 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8488 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8489 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8490 with an event loop for example.
8491 [Steve Henson]
8492
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00008493 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8494 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8495 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8496 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8497 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8498 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8499 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8500 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8501 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8502 [Steve Henson]
8503
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00008504 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8505 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8506 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008507 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00008508 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8509 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8510 [Steve Henson]
8511
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00008512 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8513 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8514 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8515 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8516
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00008517 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8518 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8519 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8520 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8521 key generation.

8527
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00008528 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8529 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8530 [Steve Henson]
8531
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00008532 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8533 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8534 [Steve Henson]
8535
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00008536 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8537 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8538 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8539 [Bodo Moeller]
8540
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00008541 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8542 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8543 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
8544 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
8545 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
8546 [Steve Henson]
8547
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00008548 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
8549 [Andy Polyakov]
8550
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00008551 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
8552 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
8553 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
8554 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
8555 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
8556 in ca.
8557 [Steve Henson]
8558
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00008559 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
8560 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
8561 1.OU="Unit name 1"
8562 2.OU="Unit name 2"
8563 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
8564 [Steve Henson]
8565
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00008566 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
8567 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
8568 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
8569 are otherwise ignored at present.
8570 [Steve Henson]
8571
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00008572 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00008573 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00008574 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
8575 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
8576 copied until the next read.
8577 [Steve Henson]
8578
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00008579 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
8580 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
8581 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
8582 [Steve Henson]
8583
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00008584 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
8585 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
8586 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
8587 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
8588 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
8589 associated functions.
8590 [Steve Henson]
8591
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00008592 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
8593 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
8594 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
8595 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
8596 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
8597 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
8598 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
8599 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
8600 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008601 memory BIOs.

8603
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00008604 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
8605 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
8606 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
8607 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
8608 [Bodo Moeller]
8609
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00008610 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
8611 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
8612 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
8613 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
8614 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
8615 functionality.
8616 [Steve Henson]
8617
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00008618 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
8619 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
8620 under Win32.
8621 [Steve Henson]
8622
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00008623 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00008624 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
8625 extensions to be obtained and added.

8639
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00008640 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
8641 program.
8642 [Steve Henson]
8643
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00008644 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
8645 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
8646 DH parameters contain its length).
8647
8648 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
8649 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
8650 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
8651 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
8652 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
8653 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
8654 utter importance to use
8655 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8656 or
8657 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8658 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
8659 attacks may become possible!
8660 [Bodo Moeller]
8661
8662 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
8663 [Bodo Moeller]
8664
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00008665 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
8666 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
8667 [Steve Henson]
8668
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00008669 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
8670 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
8671 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
8672 or long name.
8673 [Steve Henson]
8674
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00008675 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
8676 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
8677 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
8678 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00008679 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
8680 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
8681 private key operations.

8683

8686
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00008687 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
8688 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
8689 to
8690 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
8691 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
8692 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
8693 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
8694 the password callback is called.

Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00008696
8697 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
8698
8699 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
8700 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
8701 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
8702 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
8703 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
8704 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
8705 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00008706
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00008707 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...

8709 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00008710 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an

8720 [Ulf Möller]
8721
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00008722 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
8723 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
8724 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all

8727
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00008728 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections

8756 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
8757 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
8758 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
8759
8760 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
8761 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
8762 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
8763 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
8764 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
8765 this bug.

Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00008768 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
8769 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00008770 Applications can use
8771 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
8772 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
8773 "off" is now the default.
8774 The library internally uses
8775 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
8776 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
8777 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
8778
8779 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
8780 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00008781
8782 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
8783 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
8784 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00008785
8786 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
8787
8788 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
8789 extensions.

Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00008792 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
8793 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
8794 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00008795 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00008796
8797 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when

Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00008821 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
8822 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
8823 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
8824 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
8825 point to the end.

8828
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00008829 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
8830 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
8831 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
8832 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
8833 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
8834 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00008940 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
8941 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
8942 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
8943 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
8944 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
8945 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
8946 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
8947 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
8948 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.

8953 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
8954 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
8955 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its

9023
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00009024 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9025 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9026 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9027 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9028 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9029 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9030 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9031 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9032 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9033 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.

Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00009042 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9043 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like

Ulf Möllerd5a2ea41999-05-10 23:59:28 +00009081 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9082 [Ulf Möller]
9083
Ralf S. Engelschall397f7031999-05-10 08:33:56 +00009084 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall

9086 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9087 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9088
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00009089 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9090 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9091 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9092
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00009093 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9094 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9095 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9096 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9097 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9098 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9099 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9100 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9101 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9102
9103 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9104 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9105 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9106 does not influence s as it used to.
9107
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00009108 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00009109 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9110 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9111 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9112 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9113 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

9115
Dr. Stephen Hensonc8b41851999-05-09 16:39:11 +00009116 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9117 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9118 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9119 key type.
9120 [Steve Henson]
9121
Dr. Stephen Hensone40b7ab1999-05-08 12:59:50 +00009122 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9123 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9124 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9125 and 'x509').
9126 [Steve Henson]
9127
9128 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9129 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9130 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9131 extension option.
9132 [Steve Henson]
9133
Ben Laurie5b640021999-05-07 15:42:23 +00009134 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,

9157 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9158
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00009159 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9160 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9161 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9162 DER-encoded.)
9163 [Bodo Moeller]
9164
Bodo Möller7f897141999-05-01 03:20:40 +00009165 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9166 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9167 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9168 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9169 now it really counts the depth.
9170 [Bodo Moeller]
9171
Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00009172 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9173 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9174 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9175 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9176 didn't match the private key).
9177
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00009178 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
Bodo Möllerdd1462f1999-05-01 00:07:42 +00009179 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9180 connection using the SSL_CTX).

9188 [Bodo Moeller]
9189
Bodo Möller87bc2c01999-04-29 16:10:41 +00009190 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9191 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9192 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9193 [Bodo Moeller]
9194
Bodo Möller6e6acfd1999-04-28 22:33:54 +00009195 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.

9208
Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00009209 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for

Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00009213 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9214 [Ulf Möller]
9215
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00009216 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI

Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00009223 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9224 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9225 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9226 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9227 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9228 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9229 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9230 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00009231 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9232 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00009322 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code

9401
Dr. Stephen Henson785cdf21999-03-27 14:06:25 +00009402 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9403 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9404 [Steve Henson]
9405
Ben Laurieba423ad1999-03-27 13:03:37 +00009406 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9407 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9408
Ben Laurie67da3df1999-03-27 12:53:21 +00009409 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9410 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9411 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9412
Ralf S. Engelschall0e9fc711999-03-25 07:49:33 +00009413 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9414 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9415 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9416
Ralf S. Engelschall1b276f31999-03-24 10:24:35 +00009417 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9418 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.

9422 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00009423
Ben Laurieb4cadc61999-03-22 12:22:14 +00009424 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9425 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9426 [Ben Laurie]
9427
9428 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9429 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9430 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9431 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9432 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9433
Ralf S. Engelschallafb23061999-03-20 13:04:12 +00009434 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9435 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9436 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9437 document.
9438 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9439
Dr. Stephen Henson199d59e1999-03-14 01:16:45 +00009440 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9441 Malloc, Free.
9442 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9443
Ben Laurieb4899bb1999-03-12 20:41:09 +00009444 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9445 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9446
Ben Laurie29c0fcc1999-03-12 20:26:27 +00009447 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9448 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9449 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9450 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9451
Ben Lauriecadf1261999-03-12 19:58:43 +00009452 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9453 [Ben Laurie]
9454
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00009455 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9456 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9457 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9458 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9459 [Steve Henson]
9460
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00009461 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9462 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9463 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9464 [Steve Henson]
9465
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00009466 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9467 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9468 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9469 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9470 installed as `perl').
9471 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9472
Ralf S. Engelschall637691e1999-03-10 19:51:43 +00009473 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9474 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9475
Dr. Stephen Henson83ec54b1999-03-10 01:37:33 +00009476 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9477 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9478 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
Dr. Stephen Henson38138021999-03-10 18:30:48 +00009479 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9480 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9481 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson83ec54b1999-03-10 01:37:33 +00009482
Ben Laurieb241fef1999-03-09 11:37:23 +00009483 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9484 [Ben Laurie]
9485
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00009486 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9487 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9488 is horrible: I feel ill....
9489 [Steve Henson]
9490
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00009491 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9492 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9493 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9494 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00009495 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00009496
Ralf S. Engelschalld10f0521999-03-08 12:35:01 +00009497 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9498 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9499
Ralf S. Engelschallc0e538e1999-03-08 11:41:26 +00009500 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9501 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9502 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9503 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9504
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00009505 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9506 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9507 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9508 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9509 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9510 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9511 openssl_bio.xs.
9512 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9513
Ben Laurie26a08461999-03-07 15:08:38 +00009514 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9515 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9516
Ben Laurie7d3ce7b1999-03-07 14:17:32 +00009517 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9518 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9519
Ben Laurieefadf601999-03-07 15:21:08 +00009520 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
Ben Lauriecba50681999-03-07 14:05:36 +00009521 [Ben Laurie]
9522
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00009523 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9524 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9525 in CRLs.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00009526 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00009527
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00009528 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9529 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9530 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9531 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9532 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9533 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9534 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9535 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9536 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9537 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9538 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9539
Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +00009540 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9541 [Ben Laurie]
9542
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +00009543 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
9544 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
9545 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
9546 for linking it into DSOs.
9547 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9548
Ben Laurief415fa31999-03-06 14:09:36 +00009549 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
9550 Fixed.
9551 [Ben Laurie]
9552
Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +00009553 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
9554 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
9555 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
9556 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
9557 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
9558 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9559
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00009560 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
9561 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
9562 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
9563 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
9564 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
9565 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
9566 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9567
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00009568 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
9569 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
9570 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
9571 encryption.
9572 [Ben Laurie]
9573
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00009574 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
9575 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
9576 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
9577 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
9578 [Steve Henson]
9579
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00009580 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
9581 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
9582 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
9583 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
9584 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
9585 field as blank.
Dr. Stephen Henson9985bed1999-03-04 23:29:51 +00009586 [Steve Henson]
9587
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +00009588 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
9589 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
9590 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
9591 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
9592 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9593
Ralf S. Engelschalla06c6021999-03-04 07:54:01 +00009594 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
9595 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
9596 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9597
Ralf S. Engelschall8d697db1999-03-04 07:47:27 +00009598 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
9599 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9600
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +00009601 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
9602 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
9603 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
9604 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
9605 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
9606 [Steve Henson]
9607
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00009608 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
9609 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
9610 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
9611 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
9612 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00009613 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
9614 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
9615 [Ben Laurie]
9616
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00009617 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
9618 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
9619 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
9620 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
9621 [Ben Laurie]
Ralf S. Engelschall74d7abc1999-02-27 12:17:40 +00009622
9623 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
9624 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
Ralf S. Engelschall0172f981999-01-30 11:36:05 +00009625
Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00009626 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
9627 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
9628 [Steve Henson]
9629
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00009630 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
9631 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
9632 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
9633 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
9634 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
9635 (e.g. s_server).
9636 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
9637 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
9638 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
9639 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
9640 no way to reconfigure them.
9641 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
9642 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
9643 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
9644 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
9645 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
9646 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9647
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00009648 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
9649 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
9650 recognized by the users.
9651 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9652
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00009653 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
9654 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
9655 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
9656 already masked variable.

9658
Ralf S. Engelschalldef9f431999-02-25 10:54:27 +00009659 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c

9661
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +00009662 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
9663 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
9664 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

9666
Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +00009667 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
9668 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
9669 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9670
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00009671 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
9672 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
9673 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
9674 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
9675 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
9676 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
9677 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
9678 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
9679 now, too.
9680 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9681
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00009682 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested

9685
Dr. Stephen Hensona43aa731999-02-23 00:07:46 +00009686 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs

9689 [Steve Henson]
9690
Ben Laurie0849d131999-02-22 21:21:08 +00009691 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).

9693
Ben Laurie06ab81f1999-02-21 20:03:24 +00009694 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
9695 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
9696 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher

9711 [Steve Henson]
9712
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00009713 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private

9716
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00009717 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
9718 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
9719 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
9720 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
9721 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
9722 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.

9725
Mark J. Cox413c4f41999-02-16 09:22:21 +00009726 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
9727 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9728
9729 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
9730 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
9731 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
9732 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
9733 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9734
Dr. Stephen Hensona8236c81999-02-15 21:05:21 +00009735 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
9736 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00009737 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
Dr. Stephen Hensona8236c81999-02-15 21:05:21 +00009738 [Steve Henson]
9739
Dr. Stephen Henson388ff0b1999-02-14 16:48:22 +00009740 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
9741 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
9742 an example.

Ralf S. Engelschall6013fa81999-02-14 13:21:52 +00009745 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
9746 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
9747 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9748
Dr. Stephen Henson5c008791999-02-14 00:40:13 +00009749 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
9750 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
9751 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
9752 build instructions.
9753 [Steve Henson]
9754
Dr. Stephen Henson9becf661999-02-13 23:13:32 +00009755 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
9756 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
9757 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
9758 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
9759 [Steve Henson]
9760
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +00009761 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
9762 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
9763 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
9764 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
9765 [Ben Laurie]
9766
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +00009767 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
9768 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
9769 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
9770 so it wasn't spotted.
9771 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
9772
Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +00009773 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
9774 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
9775 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
9776 vectors if you have them.
9777 [Ben Laurie]
9778
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00009779 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
Ben Laurie436d3181999-02-13 12:39:50 +00009780 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
9781 [Ben Laurie]
9782
Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00009783 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
9784 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
9785 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
9786 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
9787 If you do a:
9788 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
9789 it will update them.

Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00009791
Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00009792 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
9793 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
9794 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
9795 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
9796 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
9797 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
9798 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
9799 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9800
Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00009801 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
9802 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
9803 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
9804 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
9805 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
9806 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
9807 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
9808 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
9809 the crypto/md/ stuff).
9810 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9811
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00009812 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
9813 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
9814 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
9815 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
9816 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
9817 [Steve Henson]
9818
Dr. Stephen Hensonbceacf91999-02-09 01:29:37 +00009819 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
9820 INTEGER code.
9821 [Steve Henson]
9822
Mark J. Cox351d8991999-01-31 12:14:39 +00009823 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
9824 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9825
Ralf S. Engelschallb621d771999-01-31 11:10:10 +00009826 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
9827 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9828
Ben Lauriea96e7811999-01-30 17:53:00 +00009829 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
9830 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
9831 [Ben Laurie]
9832
Ralf S. Engelschalle04a6c21999-01-30 11:50:48 +00009833 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
9834 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
9835
Ralf S. Engelschall0172f981999-01-30 11:36:05 +00009836 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'

Dr. Stephen Henson79dfa971999-01-29 23:34:19 +00009838
9839 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
9840 [Steve Henson]
Ralf S. Engelschall320a14c1998-12-23 12:09:47 +00009841
Dr. Stephen Henson9fe84291999-01-29 01:53:55 +00009842 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
9843 few typos.
9844 [Steve Henson]
9845
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00009846 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
9847 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
9848 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
9849 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9850
Dr. Stephen Henson92c046c1999-01-28 00:16:44 +00009851 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9852 [Steve Henson]

9855 [Steve Henson]
9856
Dr. Stephen Hensona27598b1999-01-26 23:13:14 +00009857 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
9858 [Steve Henson]
9859
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +00009860 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
9861 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
9862 [Steve Henson]
9863
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00009864 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
9865 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
9866 CA extensions.
9867 [Steve Henson]
9868
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00009869 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
9870 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.

Dr. Stephen Henson9aeaf1b1999-01-24 00:50:01 +00009873 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
9874 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
9875 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
9876 [Steve Henson]
9877
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00009878 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
9879 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
9880 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
9881 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
9882 properly to be processed.
9883 [Steve Henson]
9884
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +00009885 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
9886 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
9887 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
9888 [Ben Laurie]
9889
Ben Laurieb13a1551999-01-19 19:18:20 +00009890 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
9891 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
9892
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00009893 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
9894 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
9895 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
9896 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
9897 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
9898 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
9899 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
9900 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
9901 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00009904 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
9905 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
9906 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
9907 to regenerate it if needed.

9909 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
9910

9913
Dr. Stephen Hensonfdd3b641999-01-17 15:10:33 +00009914 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
9915 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
9916 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
9917 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
9918 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
9919 [Steve Henson]
9920

Ben Lauriec3ae9a41999-01-16 18:46:23 +00009932 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
9933 [Ben Laurie]
9934
Dr. Stephen Hensonee13f9b1999-01-14 18:25:07 +00009935 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
9936 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
9937 [Steve Henson]
9938
Dr. Stephen Henson27eb6221999-01-14 18:21:57 +00009939 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.

9941
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00009942 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
9943 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
9944 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
9945 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
9946 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
9947 OID is not part of the table.

Paul C. Sutton56ee3111999-01-01 12:51:11 +000010027 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10028 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10029
Ben Laurie6063b271998-12-31 17:11:46 +000010030 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10031 [Ben Laurie]
10032
10033 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10034 [Ben Laurie]
10035
10036 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10037 [Ben Laurie]
10038
stephen792a9001998-12-31 01:35:07 +000010039 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10040 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10041 other error libraries.
10042 [Steve Henson]
10043
10044 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10045 [Steve Henson]
10046
10047 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10048 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10049 be read in.
10050 [Steve Henson]
10051
Ralf S. Engelschallce72df11998-12-30 23:07:32 +000010052 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10053 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10054 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10055 the new set of documenation files.
10056 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10057
Ben Laurie4098e891998-12-29 21:43:55 +000010058 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10059 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10060 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10061 number of arguments.
10062 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10063
10064 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10065 [Ben Laurie]
10066
Ben Laurie03f8b041998-12-29 17:22:31 +000010067 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10068 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.

10072 [Ben Laurie]
10073
Ben Laurie1641cb61998-12-28 17:08:48 +000010074 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10075 nextstep
10076 ncr-scde
10077 unixware-2.0
10078 unixware-2.0-pentium
10079 sco5-cc.

Ben Laurie8d7ed6f1998-12-28 21:58:19 +000010082 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10083 before they are needed.
10084 [Ben Laurie]
10085
10086 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).

Ralf S. Engelschall13e91dd1998-12-22 15:59:57 +000010099 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10100 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10101 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10102
10103 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10104 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.

10110
10111 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,

10115 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10116
10117 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10118 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10119 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10120
10121 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10122 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
