Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00005 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 [xx XXX 2002]
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00006
Bodo Möllerb6db3862002-05-08 11:54:24 +00007 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
8 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
9 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
10 EC_GROUP_get_order()
11 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
12 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
13 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
14 adding different types of curves.
15 [Nils Larsch with input by Bodo Moeller]
16
Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +000017 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
18 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
19 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
20 [Bodo Moeller]
21
Bodo Möller82652aa2002-03-20 16:04:04 +000022 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
23 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
24
25 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
26 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
27 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
28 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
29
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +000030 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +000031
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +000032 Add applications 'openssl ecdsaparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
33 (these are variants of 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +000034
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +000035 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
36 library. Most notably,
37 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
38 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
39 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
40 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
41 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
42 extracted before the specific public key.
Bodo Möllerf8e21772002-02-20 12:38:00 +000043 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +000044
Bodo Mölleraf28dd62002-03-18 13:10:45 +000045 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
46 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. The curves can be obtained from the new
47 functions
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +000048 EC_GROUP_new_by_nid()
49 EC_GROUP_new_by_name()
50 Also add a 'nid' field to EC_GROUP objects, which can be accessed
51 via
52 EC_GROUP_set_nid()
53 EC_GROUP_get_nid()
54 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]

Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +000056 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.7 [XX xxx 2002]
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +000057
Dr. Stephen Henson544a2ae2002-05-15 18:49:25 +000058 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
59 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
60 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
61 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
62 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
63 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
64 [Steve Henson]
65
Dr. Stephen Hensondc014d42002-05-10 22:18:13 +000066 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
67 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
68 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
69 [Steve Henson]
70
Lutz Jänickec0455cb2002-04-30 12:08:18 +000071 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
72 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
73 [Lutz Jaenicke]
74
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +000075 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
Lutz Jänickee9cbcb12002-04-15 14:18:30 +000076 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
77 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
78 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
79 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
Bodo Möller08b977b2002-04-12 13:52:40 +000080 [Lutz Jaenicke]
Lutz Jänickeffbe98b2002-03-26 17:18:48 +000081
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +000082 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
Dr. Stephen Henson0dc09232002-03-06 14:15:13 +000083 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
84 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
85 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
86 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
87 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
88 [Steve Henson]
89
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +000090 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
Bodo Möller023ec152002-02-28 10:52:56 +000091 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
92 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
93 declaration has been changed from
94 int (*cb)()
95 into
96 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
97 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
98 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
99 has been changed into
100 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
101
102 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
103 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
104 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
105
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000106 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
Geoff Thorpe92d1bc02002-02-27 22:55:28 +0000107 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
108
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000109 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
Dr. Stephen Hensone84be9b2002-02-23 01:00:44 +0000110 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
111 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
112 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
113 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
114 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
115 always load it have also been added.
116 [Steve Henson]
117
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000118 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
Richard Levitte0d22b5d2002-02-28 11:29:55 +0000119 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
120 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
121
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000122 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
Dr. Stephen Henson3647bee2002-02-22 14:01:21 +0000123
124 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
125 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
126 because it couldn't be used for anything.
127
128 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
129 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
130 command line option can be used to specify an
131 alternative file.
132 [Steve Henson]
133
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000134 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
Dr. Stephen Henson92f91ff2002-02-21 00:54:54 +0000135 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
136 [Steve Henson]
137
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000138 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
Dr. Stephen Henson92f91ff2002-02-21 00:54:54 +0000139 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
140 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
141 [Steve Henson]
142
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000143 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
Richard Levitte3cd039d2002-02-07 22:15:53 +0000144 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
145 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
146 to work with the new engine framework.
147 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
148
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000149 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
Richard Levitte3cd039d2002-02-07 22:15:53 +0000150 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
151 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
152 to work with the new engine framework.
153 [Richard Levitte]
154
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000155 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
Richard Levitte1199e2d2002-01-29 12:36:01 +0000156 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
157 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
158
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000159 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
Richard Levittea3fffd62002-01-26 03:17:27 +0000160 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
161
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000162 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
Richard Levitte80bb9052002-01-25 19:43:52 +0000163 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
164 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
165 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
166 FORMAT_IISSGC.
167 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
168
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +0000169 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
Richard Levitte80bb9052002-01-25 19:43:52 +0000170 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
171
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000172 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
Richard Levitte8242a6a2002-01-25 17:00:56 +0000173 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
174
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000175 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
Bodo Möllera14e2d92002-01-24 16:16:43 +0000176 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
177 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
178 [Ben Laurie]
179
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000180 *) Add new functions
Bodo Möllera14e2d92002-01-24 16:16:43 +0000181 ERR_peek_last_error
182 ERR_peek_last_error_line
183 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
184 These are similar to
185 ERR_peek_error
186 ERR_peek_error_line
187 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
188 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
189 still in the error queue.
190 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
191
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000192 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
Dr. Stephen Hensondf5eaa82002-01-22 01:40:18 +0000193 like:
194 default_algorithms = ALL
195 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
196 [Steve Henson]
197
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000198 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9501c22002-01-21 03:02:36 +0000199 [Steve Henson]
200
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000201 *) New experimental application configuration code.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc37d992002-01-05 01:37:16 +0000202 [Steve Henson]
203
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000204 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
Richard Levitte6f9079f2002-01-02 16:55:35 +0000205 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
206 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
207 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
208
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000209 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
Ben Laurie7c517a02001-12-20 12:18:08 +0000210 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
211
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000212 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
Dr. Stephen Henson21a85f12001-12-01 23:03:30 +0000213 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
214
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000215 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
Bodo Möller76c43362001-11-16 12:02:01 +0000216 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
Bodo Möller3ba1f112001-11-15 22:32:11 +0000217 [Bodo Moeller]
218
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000219 *) New functions/macros
Bodo Möller7aa983c2001-11-10 15:14:00 +0000220
221 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
222 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
223 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
224 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
225
226 to request calling a callback function
227
228 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
229 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
230
231 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
232 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
233 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
234 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
235 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
236 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
237 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
238 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
239 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
240 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
241
242 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
243 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
244 [Bodo Moeller]
245
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000246 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
Richard Levittea7b42002001-10-30 08:00:59 +0000247 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
248 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
249 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
250 the configuration scripts.
251
252 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
253 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
254 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
255
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000256 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson7d5b04d2001-10-27 00:16:53 +0000257 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
258
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000259 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
Bodo Möller48b0cf82001-10-26 14:06:33 +0000260 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
261 when reusing an existing buffer.
262 [Bodo Moeller]
263
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000264 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
Dr. Stephen Henson1fc6d412001-10-26 12:40:38 +0000265 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
266 [Steve Henson]
267
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000268 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
Ben Laurie0e211562001-10-25 14:27:17 +0000269 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
270 [Ben Laurie]
271
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000272 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
Bodo Möller89da6532001-10-25 08:25:19 +0000273 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
274 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
275 has the same effect.
276 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
277
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000278 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +0000279 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
Richard Levitte2d57b732002-01-26 01:14:09 +0000280 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +0000281 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
282 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
283 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
284 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +0000285
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +0000286 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
287 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
288 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
289 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
290
291 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
292 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
293 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
294 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
295
296 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
297 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
298 won't work.
Richard Levittec2e4f172001-10-24 21:21:12 +0000299
300 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
301 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
302 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +0000303 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
304 default), and then completely removed.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000307 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1558bb2001-10-21 02:09:15 +0000308 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
309 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
310 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
311 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
312 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
313 particular extension is supported.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000316 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests

318 [Steve Henson]
319
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000320 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
Dr. Stephen Henson50d194a2001-10-23 00:54:58 +0000321 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
322 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
323 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
324 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
325 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
326 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
327 requires the destination to be valid.
328
329 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
330 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().

340
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000341 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +0000342 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
343 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
344 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
345 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
346 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
347 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
348 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
349 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
350 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
351 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
352 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
353 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
354 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
355 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
356 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
357 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
358 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
359 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
360 the new code.
361 [Geoff Thorpe]

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000363 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.

365
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000366 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
Richard Levitte89eecca2001-09-26 15:06:45 +0000367 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
368 become part of libeay.num as well.
369 [Richard Levitte]
370
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000371 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +0000372 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
373 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
374 false once a handshake has been completed.
375 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
376 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
377 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
378 client has followed the request.)
379 [Bodo Moeller]
380
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000381 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +0000382 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
383 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
384 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
385 [Bodo Moeller]
386
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000387 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.

389
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000390 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application

398
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000399 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +0000400 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
401 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
402 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.

Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +0000404
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000405 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +0000406 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
407 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
408 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
409 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
410 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
411 [Geoff Thorpe]
412
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000413 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +0000414 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
415 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
416 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
417 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
418 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
419 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
420 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
421 [Geoff Thorpe]
422
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000423 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new

425 [Geoff Thorpe]
426
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000427 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.

429
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000430 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000431 md_data void pointer.
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +0000432 [Ben Laurie]
433
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000434 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +0000435 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
436 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
437 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
438 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
439 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
440 [Ben Laurie]
441
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000442 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +0000443 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
444 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
445 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
446 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
447 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
448 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
449 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
450 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
451 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
452 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
453 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
454 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
455 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
456 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +0000457
458 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
459 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
460 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +0000461 [Geoff Thorpe]
462
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000463 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +0000464 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
465 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
466 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
467 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
468 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
469 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
470 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
471 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
472 [Geoff Thorpe]
473
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000474 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +0000475 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
476 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
477 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
478 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +0000479
480 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".

488
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000489 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
Dr. Stephen Henson35bf3542001-08-17 00:33:43 +0000490 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
491 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
492 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
493 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.

495
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000496 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +0000497 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +0000498 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +0000499 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
500 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
501 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

503
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000504 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
Ben Lauriedbad1692001-07-30 23:57:25 +0000505 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions. This also reduces
506 the number of header dependencies.
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +0000507 Usage example:
508
509 EVP_MD_CTX md;
510
511 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
512 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());

518
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000519 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
Ben Laurie8408f4f2001-07-31 13:33:58 +0000520 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
521 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
522 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +0000523 anyway): E.g.,
524
525 des_key_schedule ks;
526
527 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
528 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
529

532
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000533 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +0000534 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
535 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
536 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
537 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
538 functions prevents this.

547
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000548 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The

Richard Levitte0665dd62001-07-12 04:23:57 +0000559 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
560 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
561 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
562
563 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,

Dr. Stephen Hensonb7a26e62001-06-28 11:41:50 +0000599 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
600 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
601 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
602 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
603 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.

Dr. Stephen Henson4831e622001-05-12 23:57:41 +0000653 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
654
655 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
656
657 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000658 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
Dr. Stephen Henson4831e622001-05-12 23:57:41 +0000659 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
660 needed for static libraries under Win32.
661 [Steve Henson]
662
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000663 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
Dr. Stephen Henson926a56b2001-05-10 00:13:59 +0000664 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
665 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
666 [Steve Henson]
667
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000668 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdee69f2001-05-09 00:30:39 +0000669 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
670 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
671 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
672 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
673 internally such as S/MIME.
674
675 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
676 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
677 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
678
679 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
680 applications.
681 [Steve Henson]
682
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000683 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
Dr. Stephen Hensonb545dc62001-05-07 22:52:50 +0000684 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
685 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
686 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
687
688 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
689
690 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
691
692 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
693 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
694 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
695 handling.

697
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000698 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed

700 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
701 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
702 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
703 a window system and the like.

705
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000706 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a

708 [Geoff]
709
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000710 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +0000711 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
712 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
713 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
714 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
715 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
716 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
717 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
718 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
719 ENGINE structure.

721
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000722 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9624792001-04-21 12:06:01 +0000723 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
724 tag cache.
725 [Steve Henson]
726
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000727 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +0000728 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
729 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
730 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
731 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
732 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
733 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
734 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
735 [Geoff]
736
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000737 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +0000738 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
739 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
740 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
741 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
742 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
743 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
744 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
745 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
746 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
747 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
748 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
749 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
750 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
751 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
752 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
753 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
754 [Geoff]
755
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000756 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +0000757 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
758 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
759 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
760 internal engine_int.h header.
761 [Geoff]
762
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000763 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +0000764 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
765 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
766 modify their own ones).
767 [Geoff]
768
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000769 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +0000770 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
771 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
772 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
773 later on via ctrl() commands.
774 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
775 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
776 structural references.
777 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
778 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
779 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
780 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
781 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Möllere13ae962001-09-10 18:59:53 +0000782 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +0000783 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
784 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
785 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
786 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
787 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
788 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.

Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000792 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +0000793 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
794 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
795 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
796 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
797 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
798 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

811 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
812 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
813 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
814 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
815 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000912 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +0000913 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
914 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
915 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
916 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
917 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
918
919 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
920 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
921
922 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
923 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
924
925 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
926 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
927
928 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
929 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
930 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
931 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
932
933 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000934 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +0000935
936 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000937 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +0000938
939 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
940 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
941 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
942 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
943 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000946 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
Dr. Stephen Henson3d2e4692001-02-28 00:51:48 +0000947 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
948 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
949 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
950 [Steve Henson]
951
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000952 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
Dr. Stephen Hensonfafc7f92001-02-26 14:17:58 +0000953 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
954 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
955 trust settings.
956 [Steve Henson]
957
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000958 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +0000959 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
960 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
961 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000962 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +0000963 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
964 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
965 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
966 ocsp utility.

968
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000969 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000970 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.

972
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000973 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
Dr. Stephen Hensond7c06e92001-02-23 13:04:24 +0000974 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
975 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
976 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
977 [Steve Henson]
978
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000979 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +0000980 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
981 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
982 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
983 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
984 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
985 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
986 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
987 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
988 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
989 [Steve Henson]
990
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +0000991 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +0000992 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
993 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
994 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
995 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
996 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
997 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".

999
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001000 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
Richard Levitted399fdf2001-02-21 14:12:03 +00001001 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
1002 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
1003 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
1004 [Richard Levitte]
1005
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001006 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00001007 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
1008 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
1009 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
1010 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00001011 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
1012 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
1013 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
1014 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
1015 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
1016 what is available.

1018
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001019 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
Dr. Stephen Hensonacba75c2001-02-19 13:38:32 +00001020 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
1021 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
1022 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
1023 auto incremented.

1025
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001026 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6b7ffd2001-02-16 01:35:44 +00001027 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
1028 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
1029 [Steve Henson]
1030
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001031 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
Dr. Stephen Hensonf2e5ca82001-02-14 02:11:52 +00001032 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
1033 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
1034 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
1035 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.

1044 [Steve Henson]
1045
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001046 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00001047 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
1048 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
1049 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
1050 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
1051 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
1052 the request is nonce-less.

1080
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001081 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the

1101 [Steve Henson]
1102
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001103 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00001104 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
1105 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
1106 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
1107 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001108 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00001109 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
1110 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
1111 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
1112 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
1113 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
1114 [Steve Henson]
1115
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001116 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00001117 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001118 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001141 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00001142 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
1143 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
1144 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
1145 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
1146 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00001151 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
1152 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
1153 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()

1156 [Steve Henson]
1157
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001158 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00001159 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:

1164 [Steve Henson]
1165
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001166 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00001167 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
1168 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
1169 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
1170 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
1171 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
1172 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
1173 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
1174 [Steve Henson]
1175
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001176 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00001177 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
1178 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
1179 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
1180 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
1181 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
1182 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
1183 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001224 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00001225 file name and line number information in additional arguments
1226 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
1227 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
1228 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
1229 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
1230 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
1231 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +00001232
1233 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
1234 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions

Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00001238 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
1239 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
1240 extended allocation function is enabled.
1241 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
1242 a conventional allocation function is enabled.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001252 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00001253 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
1254 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
1255 be queried.
1256 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
1257 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
1258 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001261 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00001262 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
1263 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
1264 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
1265 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
1266 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
1267 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
1268 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
1269 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001272 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00001273 provide utility functions which an application needing
1274 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
1275 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
1276 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
1277
1278 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
1279 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
1280 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
1281 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
1282 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
1283 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
1284 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
1285 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
1286 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
1287
1288 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
1289 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
1290 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
1291 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
1292 [Steve Henson]
1293
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001294 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00001295 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
1296 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
1297 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
1298 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
1299 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
1300 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
1301 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
1302 will be added elsewhere.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001311 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00001312 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
1313 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
1314 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
1315 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
1316 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
1317 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
1318 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
1319 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
1320 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
1321 to produce the required SET OF.

1472 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
1473 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
1474 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
1475 [Bodo Moeller]
1476
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001477 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +00001478 sign of the number in question.
1479
1480 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
1481
1482 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
1483 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
1484 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
1485 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
1486 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
1487 [Bodo Moeller]
1488
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001489 *) New function BN_swap.

1491
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001492 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001493 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
1494 results on negative inputs.
1495 [Bodo Moeller]
1496
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001497 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001498 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
1499 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
1500 [Bodo Moeller]
1501
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001502 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00001503 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001504 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
1505 and add new functions:
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +00001506
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001507 BN_nnmod
1508 BN_mod_sqr
1509 BN_mod_add
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +00001510 BN_mod_add_quick
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001511 BN_mod_sub
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +00001512 BN_mod_sub_quick
1513 BN_mod_lshift1
1514 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
1515 BN_mod_lshift
1516 BN_mod_lshift_quick
1517
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001518 These functions always generate non-negative results.
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +00001519
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001520 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
1521 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +00001522
1523 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
1524 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
1525 be reduced modulo m.
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001526 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1527
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001528 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00001529 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1530 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00001531 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1532 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00001533 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1534 differing sizes.
1535 [Richard Levitte]
1536
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001537 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00001538 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
1539 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
1540 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
1541 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
1542
1543 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
1544 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
1545 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
1546 cause any problems.
1547 [Bodo Moeller]
1548
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001549 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.

1551
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001552 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
Richard Levittee06433d2000-11-07 11:25:26 +00001553 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
1554 [Richard Levitte]
1555
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001556 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00001557 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
1558 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
1559 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
1560 time)

1562
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001563 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.

1565
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001566 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
Richard Levitte020fc822000-11-06 21:15:54 +00001567 [Richard Levitte]
1568
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001569 *) Add the following functions:
Richard Levitte11c0f122000-11-02 20:33:04 +00001570
1571 ENGINE_load_cswift()
1572 ENGINE_load_chil()
1573 ENGINE_load_atalla()
1574 ENGINE_load_nuron()
1575 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
1576
1577 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
1578 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
1579 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
1580 libraries unless it's really needed.
1581
1582 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
1583 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
1584 declarations (they differed!).
1585 [Richard Levitte]
1586
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001587 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.

1595
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001596 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
Richard Levitte14c6d272000-11-01 02:57:35 +00001597 identity, and test if they are actually available.
1598 [Richard Levitte]
1599
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001600 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001636 *) NCONF changes.
Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00001637 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
1638 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
1639 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
1640 binary backward compatibility.
1641 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
1642 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
1643 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an

1706 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
1707 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
1708 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen

1711
1712 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
1713 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
1714 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
1715 BN_generate_prime().)
1716
1717 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
1718 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
1719 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
1720 better.

1741 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
1742
1743 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:

1764
1765 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
1766 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
1767 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
1768 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
1769 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
1770 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
1771 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
1772 session cache.
1773
1774 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
1775 using a local variable.
1776 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
1777
1778 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)

1796 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
1797 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
1798 [Bodo Moeller]
1799
1800 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
1801 present.
1802 [Steve Henson]
1803
1804 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
1805 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
1806 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
1807 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
1808 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
1809
1810 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
1811 returns early because it has nothing to do.
1812 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1813
1814 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1815 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
1816 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1817
1818 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1819 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
1820 (Use engine 'keyclient')
1821 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
1822
1823 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
1824 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
1825 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
1826 modules).
1827 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
1828
1829 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1830 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
1831 from 0.9.7.
1832 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
1833
1834 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1835 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
1836 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
1837 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
1838
1839 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1840 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
1841 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
1842 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
1843
1844 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
1845 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
1846
1847 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
1848 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
1849 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
1850 [Bodo Moeller]
1851
1852 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
1853 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
1854 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
1855 become invalid.
1856 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
1857
1858 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
1859 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
1860 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
1861 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
1862 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
1863 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
1864 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
1865 [Bodo Moeller]
1866
1867 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
1868 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
1869 one of the SSL handshake functions.
1870 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
1871
1872 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
1873 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
1874 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
1875 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
1876 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
1877 the client will at least see that alert.
1878 [Bodo Moeller]
1879
1880 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
1881 correctly.
1882 [Bodo Moeller]
1883
1884 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
1885 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
1886 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1887
1888 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
1889 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
1890 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
1891 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
1892 HelloRequest.
1893
1894 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
1895 before just sending a HelloRequest.
1896 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
1897
1898 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
1899 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
1900 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
1901 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
1902 may leak via logfiles.)
1903
1904 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
1905 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
1906 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
1907 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
1908 the legal range.
1909 [Bodo Moeller]
1910
1911 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
1912 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
1913 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1914
1915 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
1916 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
1917 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
1918 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
1919 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
1920 [Bodo Moeller]
1921
1922 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
1923 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
1924
1925 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
1926 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
1927 followed by modular reduction.
1928 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
1929
1930 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
1931 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
1932 [Bodo Moeller]
1933
1934 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
1935 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
1936 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
1937 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
1938 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1939
1940 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
1941 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1942
1943 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
1944 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
1945 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1946
1947 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
1948 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
1949 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
1950 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
1951 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
1952 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
1953 automatically.
1954 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
1955
1956 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
1957 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
1958 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
1959 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
1960 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
1961
1962 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
1963 [Andy Polyakov]
1964
1965 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
1966 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
1967 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
1968 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
1969 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
1970 to allow the necessary settings.
1971 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1972
1973 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
1974 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
1975 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
1976 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
1977 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1978
1979 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
1980 dh->length and always used
1981
1982 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
1983
1984 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
1985 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
1986 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
1987 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
1988 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
1989 dh->length.
1990
1991 So switch back to
1992
1993 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
1994
1995 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
1996 otherwise.
1997 [Bodo Moeller]
1998
1999 *) In
2000
2001 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
2002 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
2003 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
2004 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
2005
2006 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
2007 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
2008 always reject numbers >= n.
2009 [Bodo Moeller]
2010
2011 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
2012 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
2013 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
2014 variable) is not atomic.
2015 [Bodo Moeller]
2016
2017 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
2018 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
2019 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
2020 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
2021
2022 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
2023 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
2024
2025 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
2026 little-endian MIPS.
2027 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
2028
2029 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
2030 [Richard Levitte]
2031
2032 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
2033
2034 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
2035 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
2036 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
2037 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
2038 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
2039 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
2040 to traverse all of 'state'.
2041
2042 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
2043 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
2044 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
2045
2046 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
2047 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
2048
2049 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
2050 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
2051 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
2052 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
2053 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
2054 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
2055 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
2056 further strengthens the PRNG.
2057 [Bodo Moeller]
2058
2059 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
2060 [Andy Polyakov]
2061
2062 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
2063 an error message in this case.
2064 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2065
2066 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
2070 positive and less than q.
2071 [Bodo Moeller]
2072
2073 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
2074 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
2075 that itself.
2076 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
2077
2078 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
2079 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
2080 [Bodo Moeller]
2081
2082 *) Fix OAEP check.
2083 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
2084
2085 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
2086 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
2087 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
2088 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
2089 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
2090 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
2091 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
2092 paper.)
2093
2094 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
2095 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
2096 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
2097 detect the supposedly ignored error.
2098
2099 Both problems are now fixed.
2100 [Bodo Moeller]
2101
2102 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
2103 (previously it was 1024).
2104 [Bodo Moeller]
2105
2106 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
2107 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
2108 [Steve Henson]
2109
2110 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
2111 [Steve Henson]
2112
2113 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
2114 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
2115 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
2116 [Steve Henson]
2117
2118 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
2119 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
2120 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
2121 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
2122 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
2123 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
2124 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
2125 environment variables.
2126
2127 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
2128 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
2129 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
2130 [Bodo Moeller]
2131
2132 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
2133 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
2134 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
2135 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
2136 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
2137 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
2138 [Bodo Moeller]
2139
2140 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
2141 versions of 'test'.
2142 [Bodo Moeller]
2143
2144 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
2145
2146 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
2147 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
2148
2149 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
2150 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
2151 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
2152 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
2153 CygWin.
2154 [Richard Levitte]
2155
2156 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
2157 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
2158 amount of data available.
2159 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
2160 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2161
2162 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
2163 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
2164 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
2165 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
2166 [Bodo Moeller]
2167
2168 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
2169 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
2170 and UnixWare.
2171 [Richard Levitte]
2172
2173 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
2174 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
2175 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
2176 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
2177 [Ulf Moeller]
2178
2179 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
2180 [Andy Polyakov]
2181
2182 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
2183 [Richard Levitte]
2184
2185 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
2186 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
2187 [Steve Henson]
2188 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2189
2190 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
2191 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
2192 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
2193 (but broken) behaviour.
2194 [Steve Henson]
2195
2196 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
2197 it when found.
2198 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
2199
2200 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
2201 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
2202 [Bodo Moeller]
2203
2204 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
2205 did not exist.
2206 [Bodo Moeller]
2207
2208 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
2209 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
2210
2211 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
2212 [Richard Levitte]
2213
2214 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
2215 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
2216 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
2217
2218 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
2219 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
2220 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
2221 [Steve Henson]
2222
2223 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
2224 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
2225 [Ulf Moeller]
2226
2227 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
2228 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
2229
2230 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
2231
2232 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
2233
2234 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
2235 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
2236 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
2237 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
2238 [Bodo Moeller]
2239
2240 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
2241 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2242
2243 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
2244 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
2245 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2246
2247 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
2248 was empty.
2249 [Steve Henson]
2250 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2251
2252 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
2253 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
2254 but the code is actually correct.
2255 [Steve Henson]
2256
2257 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
2258 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
2259 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
2260 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
2261 and leaves the highest bit random.
2262 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
2263
2264 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
2265 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
2266 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
2267 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
2268 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
2269 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
2270 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
2271 [Bodo Moeller]
2272
2273 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
2274 [Ulf Moeller]
2275
2276 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
2277 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
2278 [Steve Henson]
2279
2280 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
2281 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
2282 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
2283 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
2284 headers.
2285 [Richard Levitte]
2286
2287 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
2288 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
2289 and break the signature.
2290 [Steve Henson]
2291 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2292
2293 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
2294 DH ciphersuites.
2295 [Steve Henson]
2296
2297 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
2298 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
2299 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
2300 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
2301 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
2302 [Bodo Moeller]
2303
2304 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
2305 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2306
2307 *) ./config script fixes.
2308 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
2309
2310 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
2311 [Bodo Moeller]
2312
2313 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
2314 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
2315 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
2316 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
2317 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
2318
2319 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
2320 call failed, free the DSA structure.
2321 [Bodo Moeller]
2322
2323 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
2324 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
2325 [Steve Henson]
2326
2327 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
2328 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
2329 when writing a 32767 byte record.
2330 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
2331
2332 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
2333 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
2334
2335 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
2336 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
2337 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
2338 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
2339 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
2340
2341 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
2342 [Bodo Moeller]
2343
2344 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
2345 [Ulf Möller]
2346
2347 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
2348 [Ulf Möller]
2349
2350 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
2351 [Bodo Moeller]
2352
2353 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
2354 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
2355 [Bodo Moeller]
2356
2357 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
2358 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
2359 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
2360 result of the server certificate verification.)
2361 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2362
2363 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
2364 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
2365 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
2366 [Bodo Moeller]
2367
2368 *) Fix SSL_peek:
2369 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
2370 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
2371 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
2372 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
2373 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
2374 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
2375 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
2376 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
2377 [Bodo Moeller]
2378
2379 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
2380 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
2381 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
2382 happening the other way round.
2383 [Geoff Thorpe]
2384
2385 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
2386 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
2387 [Bodo Moeller]
2388
2389 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
2390 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
2391 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
2392 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
2393 [Richard Levitte]
2394
2395 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
2396 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
2397
2398 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
2399
2400 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
2401 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
2402 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
2403 that.
2404
2405 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
2406
2407 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
2408
2409 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
2410 static ones.
2411 [Richard Levitte]
2412
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00002413 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
2414
2415 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
2416 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
2417 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
2418 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
2419 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
2420
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00002421 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
2422 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
2423 matter what.
2424 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00002425
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00002426 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
2427 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2428
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00002429 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00002430
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00002431 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
2432 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
2433 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
2434 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
2435 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00002436 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00002437 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
2438 by the Finished messages.
2439 [Bodo Moeller]
2440
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00002441 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
2442 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
2443
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00002444 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
2445 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
2446 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
2447 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
2448 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
2449 appropriately.
2450 [Steve Henson]
2451
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00002452 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
2453 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
2454 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
2455 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
2456 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
2457 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
2458 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
2459 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
2460 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
2461 together.
2462 [Steve Henson]
2463
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00002464 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
2465 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
2466 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
2467 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
2468
2469 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
2470 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
2471 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
2472 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
2473 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
2474 the answer.
2475
2476 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
2477 been tested well enough.
2478 [Richard Levitte]
2479
Bodo Möllerfe035192000-09-19 23:25:00 +00002480 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00002481 it can return incorrect results.
Bodo Möllercb1fbf82000-09-19 23:06:14 +00002482 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
2483 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00002484 [Bodo Moeller]
2485
Dr. Stephen Henson730e37e2000-09-18 12:30:57 +00002486 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
2487 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
2488 include zero length content when signing messages.
2489 [Steve Henson]
2490
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00002491 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
2492 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00002493 [Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00002494
Richard Levitte0e05f542000-09-15 21:22:50 +00002495 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
2496 [Richard Levitte]
2497
Ulf Möller1d84fd62000-09-14 18:37:53 +00002498 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
2499 wrong sign.
2500 [Ulf Möller]
2501
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00002502 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
2503 packages. The default package contains applications, application
2504 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
2505 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
2506 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
2507 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
2508 [Richard Levitte]
2509
Richard Levittecc995262000-09-14 13:11:56 +00002510 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
2511 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
2512
Richard Levitte72660f52000-09-14 12:48:48 +00002513 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
2514 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
2515
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00002516 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
2517 random number < q in the DSA library.
Ulf Möller523d7782000-09-13 02:01:35 +00002518 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00002519
Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00002520 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
2521 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
2522 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
2523 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
2524 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
2525 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
2526 just makes things more complicated.)
2527 [Bodo Moeller]
2528
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00002529 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
2530 from EGD.
2531 [Ben Laurie]
2532
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +00002533 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
2534 work better on such systems.
2535 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
2536
Dr. Stephen Henson84b65342000-09-07 23:14:26 +00002537 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
2538 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
2539 keyid to the certificates aux info.
2540 [Steve Henson]
2541
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +00002542 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
2543 if there was more than one signature.
2544 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
2545
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +00002546 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
2547 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
2548 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
2549 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
2550 [Richard Levitte]
2551
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002552 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
2553 rather than always using the current time.
2554 [Steve Henson]
2555
2556 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
2557 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
2558 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
2559 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
2560 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
2561 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002562
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002563 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
2564 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002565
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002566 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002567
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002568 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
2569 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
2570 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
2571 the same hash value.
2572
2573 As a result various functions (which were all internal
2574 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
2575 structure. This will break anything that messed round
2576 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002577
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002578 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
2579 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002580
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002581 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
2582 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
2583 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
2584 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
2585 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
2586 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
2587 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002588
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002589 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
2590
2591 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
2592 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
2593 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
2594 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
2595 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
2596 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
2597 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
2598 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
2599
2600 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
2601 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
2602
2603 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
2604 to customise the verify behaviour.
2605 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002606
Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00002607 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
2608 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
2609 [Steve Henson]
2610
2611 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
2612 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
2613 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
2614 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
2615 request is improperly encoded.
2616 [Steve Henson]
2617
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00002618 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
2619 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
2620 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00002621
2622 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.

2624
Bodo Möllerbbb8de02000-09-04 15:34:43 +00002625 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
2626 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
2627 words set to zero.)
2628 [Bodo Moeller]
2629
2630 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
2631 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
2632 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
2633 [Bodo Moeller]
2634
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +00002635 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
2636 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
2637 BIO/fp routines also added.
2638 [Steve Henson]
2639
Bodo Möllera545c6f2000-09-01 09:54:25 +00002640 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.

2642
Ben Laurie7049ef52000-08-30 18:14:28 +00002643 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
2644 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
2645 demos/state_machine.
2646 [Ben Laurie]
2647
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00002648 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
2649 generation and verification.
2650 [Steve Henson]
2651
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00002652 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
2653 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
2654 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
2655 encode and decode it manually.
2656 [Steve Henson]
2657
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00002658 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c

2660 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
2661
2662 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
2663 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
2664 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
2665 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
2666
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00002667 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
2668 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
2669 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
2670 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
2671 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
2672 [Steve Henson]
2673
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00002674 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
2675 [Richard Levitte]
2676
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00002677 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
2678 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
2679 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
2680
2681 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
2682 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
2683 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
2684 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
2685 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
2686 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
2687 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
2688 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
2689
2690 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
2691 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
2692
2693 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
2694
2695 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
2696 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
2697 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
2698
2699 [Richard Levitte]
2700
Richard Levitte368f8552000-08-17 10:25:46 +00002701 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
2702 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
2703 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
2704 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
2705 [Richard Levitte]
2706
Richard Levitte30094582000-08-14 14:05:53 +00002707 *) MD4 implemented.

Richard Levitte88364bc2000-08-11 19:43:20 +00002710 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
2711 [Richard Levitte]
2712
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00002713 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
2714 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
2715 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
2716 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
2717 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
2718 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
2719 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
2720 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
2721 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
2722 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
2723 short or long names are found.
2724 [Steve Henson]
2725
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00002726 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.

Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00002729 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
2730 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
2731 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
2732 version rollback attacks was not effective.
2733
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00002734 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
2735 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
2736 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
2737 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
2738 [Bodo Moeller]
2739
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00002740 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
2741 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
2742 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
2743 [Richard Levitte]
2744
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00002745 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
2746 these print out strings and name structures based on various
2747 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
2748 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
2749 to allow the various flags to be set.
2750 [Steve Henson]
2751
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00002752 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
2753 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
2754 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
2755 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
2756 dates to be checked.
2757 [Steve Henson]
2758
2759 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
2760 negative public key encodings) on by default,
2761 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
2762 [Steve Henson]
2763
2764 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
2765 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
2766 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
2767 [Steve Henson]
2768
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +00002769 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
2770 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
2771 [Bodo Moeller]
2772
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +00002773 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
2774 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
2775 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
2776 are always statically linked for now, but there are
2777 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
Richard Levitte6bc847e2001-08-10 15:26:21 +00002778 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.

2780
Ulf Möllerc0722722000-07-19 21:35:35 +00002781 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
2782 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
2783 Random Numbers.
2784 [Ulf Möller]
2785
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd13f0e2000-07-12 23:55:30 +00002786 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
2787 DSA key.
2788 [Steve Henson]
2789
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00002790 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
2791 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
2792 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
2793 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
2794 form signing output easier to verify.
2795 [Steve Henson]
2796
2797 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
2798 [Steve Henson]
2799
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00002800 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
2801 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
2802 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
2803 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
2804 are needed because all other string types have virtually
2805 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
2806 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
2807 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
2808 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
2809 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
2810 [Steve Henson]
2811
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00002812 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
2813
2814 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
2815 the syntax given in objects.README.
2816 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
2817 obj_mac.h.
2818 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
2819 obj_mac.h.
2820
2821 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
2822 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
2823 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
2824 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
2825 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
2826 consistent name changes.
2827 [Richard Levitte]
2828
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00002829 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
2830 [Bodo Moeller]
2831
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00002832 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00002833 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
2834 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
2835 environment variable, or the default random state file.

2837
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00002838 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
2839 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
2840 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
2841 of safestack.h .
2842 [Steve Henson]
2843
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00002844 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
2845 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
2846 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
2847 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
2848 [Steve Henson]
2849
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00002850 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
2851 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
2852 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
2853 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
2854 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
2855 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
2856 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
2857 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
2858 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00002859 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
2860 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.

2862
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00002863 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
2864 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
2865 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
2866 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
2867 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
2868 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
2869 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
2870 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
2871 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
2872 algorithm to openssl-dev.
2873 [Steve Henson]
2874
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00002875 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
2876 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
2877 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
2878 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
2879
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00002880 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
2881 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
2882 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
2883 omit any duplicate addresses.
2884 [Steve Henson]
2885
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00002886 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
2887 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
2888 [Bodo Moeller]
2889
2890 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
2891 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
2892 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
2893 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
2894 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
2895 [Bodo Moeller]
2896
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00002897 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other

2903 [Richard Levitte]
2904
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00002905 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
2906 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).

2911
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00002912 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
2913 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
2914 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
2915 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
2916 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
2917 approach.
2918 [Geoff Thorpe]
2919
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00002920 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
2921 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
2922 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
2923 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
2924 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
2925 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
2926 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
2927 [Geoff Thorpe]
2928
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00002929 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
2930 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
2931 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
2932 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
2933 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
2934 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
2935 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
2936 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
2937 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
2938 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
2939 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
2940 [Bodo Moeller]
2941
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00002942 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
2943 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
2944 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
2945 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
2946 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
2947
2948 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
2949 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
2950 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
2951 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
2952 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
2953
2954 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
2955 ciphers.
2956
2957 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00002958 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
2959 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
2960 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
2961
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00002962 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
2963
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00002964 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
2965 of macros.
2966
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00002967 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
2968 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
2969 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
2970 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00002971
2972 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
2973 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
2974 any installed hardware versions can.

2976
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00002977 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
2978 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
2979 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
2980 number.
2981 [Bodo Moeller]
2982
2983 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
2984 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
2985 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
2986 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).

2988
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4b41f42000-05-24 13:09:59 +00002989 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS

2991 [Steve Henson]
2992
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00002993 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
2994 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
2995 [Richard Levitte]
2996
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00002997 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
2998 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
2999 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
3000 features.

Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00003011 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
3012 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
3013 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
3014 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
3015 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
3016 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
3017 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
3018 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
3019 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
3020 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
3021 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.

Bodo Möller316e6a62000-05-02 20:29:03 +00003024 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
3025 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
3026 be obtained from the error queue.
3027 [Bodo Moeller]
3028
Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00003029 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
3030 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
3031 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
3032 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
3033 [Bodo Moeller]
3034
Ulf Möller39736282000-04-27 15:06:26 +00003035 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
3036 [Ulf Möller]
3037
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00003038 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
3039 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
3040 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
3041 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
3042 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
3043 [Geoff Thorpe]
3044
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00003045 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
3046 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
3047 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
3048 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
3049 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
3050 [Geoff Thorpe]
3051
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00003052 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
3053 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
3054 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
3055 may not be NULL.

3057
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00003058 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
3059 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
3060 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
3061 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
3062 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
3063 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
3064 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
3065 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
3066 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
3067 or "the configuration storage API"...
3068
3069 The new configuration file reading functions are:
3070
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00003071 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
3072 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00003073
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00003074 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00003075
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00003076 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00003077
3078 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
3079 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
3080 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
3081 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
3082 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
3083 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
3084 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
3085
3086 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
3087 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
3088 [Richard Levitte]
3089
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00003090 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
3091 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
3092 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
3093 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
3094 [Bodo Moeller]
3095
Geoff Thorpe6ef4d9d2000-04-04 22:49:27 +00003096 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
3097 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
3098 them in a portable way.

3102
3103 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
Bodo Möller865874f2000-02-28 18:03:16 +00003104
Bodo Möllercf194c12000-03-30 08:12:35 +00003105 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
3106 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
3107
Bodo Möller3bc90f22000-03-27 18:10:08 +00003108 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
3109 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
3110 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili

3112
Dr. Stephen Hensonb475baf2000-03-27 00:53:27 +00003113 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
3114 was larger than the MD block size.
3115 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
3116
Dr. Stephen Hensone77066e2000-03-22 13:50:23 +00003117 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
3118 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
3119 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
3120 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
3121 components.

3127
Dr. Stephen Henson80870562000-03-14 03:29:57 +00003128 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
3129 discouraged.
3130 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
3131
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00003132 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
3133 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00003134 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00003135 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00003136 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
3137 Additional arguments are always ignored.
3138
3139 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
3140 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00003141
3142 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
3143 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)

Bodo Möller65b002f2000-03-13 19:24:39 +00003146 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
3147 [Bodo Moeller]
3148
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00003149 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
3150 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
3151 its own key.
3152 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
3153 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
3154 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
3155 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
3156 [Bodo Moeller]
3157
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00003158 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
3159 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
3160 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
3161 does not suppress any output.
3162 [Richard Levitte]
3163
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00003164 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00003165 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
3166 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
3167 with all the associated security issues.
3168
3169 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
3170 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
3171 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
3172 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
3173 use the value in the default purpose.
3174 [Steve Henson]
3175
Dr. Stephen Henson48fe0ee2000-03-07 01:03:33 +00003176 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
3177 and fix a memory leak.
3178 [Steve Henson]
3179
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00003180 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
3181 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
3182 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
3183 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
3184 [Bodo Moeller]
3185
Bodo Möller0a150c52000-03-04 01:36:53 +00003186 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
3187 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
3188 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
3189 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
3190 [Bodo Moeller]
3191
Bodo Möller41918452000-03-03 22:18:19 +00003192 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
3193 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
3194 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
3195 [Bodo Moeller]
3196
3197 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
3198 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
3199 [Bodo Moeller]
3200
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00003201 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
3202 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
3203 which was free.
3204 [Steve Henson]
3205
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00003206 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
3207 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
3208 [Bodo Moeller]
3209
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00003210 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
3211 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
3212 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
3213 [Bodo Moeller]
3214
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00003215 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
3216 number generation fails.
3217 [Bodo Moeller]
3218
Bodo Möller55f7d652000-03-01 07:57:25 +00003219 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
3220 [Bodo Moeller]

Dr. Stephen Henson82b93182000-02-28 14:11:19 +00003236 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
3237 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
3238 [Steve Henson]
3239
Dr. Stephen Henson587bb0e2000-02-27 17:34:30 +00003240 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
3241 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
3242
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00003243 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
Andy Polyakova5770be2000-02-27 02:34:37 +00003244 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.

3246
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00003247 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
3248 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
3249 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
3250 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
3251 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
3252 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
3253
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00003254 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
3255 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
3256 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
3257 for example.
3258 [Steve Henson]
3259
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00003260 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
3261 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
3262 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
3263 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
3264 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
3265 counter, some don't.)
3266 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
3267 counters or duplicate objects.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc7cb16a2000-02-26 01:55:33 +00003268 [Steve Henson]
3269
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00003270 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
3271 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
3272 [Steve Henson]
3273
Ulf Möller505b5a02000-02-24 22:57:42 +00003274 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().

3277
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00003278 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
3279 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
3280 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
3281 or -rand.
3282 [Ulf Möller]
3283
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00003284 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
3285 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
3286 [Steve Henson]
3287
3288 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
3289 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
3290 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
3291 cipher list.
3292 [Steve Henson]
3293
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00003294 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
3295 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
3296 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
3297 [Steve Henson]
3298
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00003299 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
3300 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
3301 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
3302 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
3303 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
3304 should work without changes.

Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00003306
3307 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
3308 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
3309 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
3310 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
3311 must be defined. E.g.,
3312 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
3313 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
3314 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.

3319 [Bodo Moeller]
3320
Dr. Stephen Hensond754b382000-02-20 18:27:23 +00003321 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
3322 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
3323 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
3324 [Steve Henson]
3325
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00003326 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
3327 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
3328 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
3329 request header lines. Some software needs this.
3330 [Steve Henson]
3331
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00003332 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
3333 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
3334 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
3335 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
3336 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
3337 is prompted for as usual.

3388 [Ulf Möller]
3389
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00003390 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
3391 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
3392 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
3393 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
3394 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
3395 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
3396 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
3397 [Steve Henson]
3398

3412 [Ulf Möller]
3413
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00003414 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
3415 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
3416 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
3417 has already seen).
3418 [Bodo Moeller]
3419
3420 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
3421 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
3422
3423 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
3424 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
3425 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
3426 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
3427 generation becomes much faster.
3428
3429 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00003430 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
3431 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
3432 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
3433 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
3434 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
3435 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
3436 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
3437 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
3438 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).

Bodo Möller7865b872000-01-30 02:40:38 +00003441 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00003442 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
3443 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
3444 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00003445 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00003502 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
3503 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
3504 wrong.
3505
3506 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
3507 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
3508 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
3509
3510 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
3511 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric

3513 an error is flagged.

3530
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00003531 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
3532 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
3533 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
3534 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
3535 instead.
3536
3537 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
3538 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
3539 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
3540 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality

Ulf Möllereb952082000-01-13 20:59:17 +00003549 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00003550 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
3551 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00003552 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00003553 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
3554 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate

3567
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00003568 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain

Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00003570 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
3571 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist

3577 [Steve Henson]
3578
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00003579 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default

3586 [Ulf Möller]
3587
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00003588 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
3589 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
3590 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
3591 international characters are used.
3592
3593 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
3594 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
3595 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
3596 in ASN1 order.
3597 [Steve Henson]
3598
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00003599 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
3600 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
3601 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
3602 request.
3603
3604 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
3605 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
3606 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
3607 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003608 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00003609 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
3610
3611 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
3612 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
3613 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003614 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00003615
3616 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
3617 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
3618 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
3619 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
3620 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
3621 types at all.

Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00003624 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
3625 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
3626 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
3627 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
3628 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
3629
3630 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
3631 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
3632 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
3633 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.

3637 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003638 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%

3643
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00003644 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
3645 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
3646 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
3647 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
3648 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
3649 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
3650 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
3651 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
3652
3653 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
3654 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00003655 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.

3659 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
3660 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
3661 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
3662 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
3663 support to pkcs8 application.
3664 [Steve Henson]
3665
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00003666 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
3667 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
3668 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
3669 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
3670 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
3671 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
3672 [Bodo Moeller]
3673
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00003674 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
3675 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
3676 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
3677 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
3678 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
3679 consistency.
3680 [Bodo Moeller]
3681
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00003682 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
3683 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
3684 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
3685 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
3686 example.
3687 [Steve Henson]
3688
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00003689 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
3690 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
3691 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
3692 and any application specific purposes.
3693
3694 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
3695 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
3696 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
3697 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00003698 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00003699 if the certificate is self signed.
3700 [Steve Henson]
3701
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00003702 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
3703 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
3704 [Steve Henson]
3705
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00003706 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
3707 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00003708 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00003709 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
3710 [Steve Henson]
3711
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00003712 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
3713 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
3714 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
3715 Update documentation.
3716 [Steve Henson]
3717
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00003718 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
3719 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003720 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00003721 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
3722 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
3723 [Steve Henson]
3724
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00003725 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
3726 for details.
3727 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
3728
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00003729 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
3730 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
3731 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00003732 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
3733 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
3734 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00003735 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
3736 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
3737 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
3738 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00003739
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00003740 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
3741
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00003742 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
3743 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
3744 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
3745 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
3746 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00003747
3748 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
3749 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00003750 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
3751 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
3752 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
3753 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
3754 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
3755 request additional information:
3756 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
3757 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00003758
3759 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
3760 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
3761 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
3762 options.
3763
3764 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
3765 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
3766
3767 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
3768 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
3769 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
3770
3771 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00003772 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00003773
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00003774 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
3775 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
3776 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
3777 algorithm.
3778 [Steve Henson]
3779
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00003780 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
3781 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
3782 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
3783
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00003784 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
3785 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
3786 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
3787 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
3788 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
3789 included in OpenSSL.
3790 [Steve Henson]
3791
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00003792 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
3793 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
3794 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
3795 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
3796 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
3797 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
3798 [Bodo Moeller]
3799
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00003800 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
3801 PKCS12 structure.
3802 [Steve Henson]
3803
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00003804 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
3805 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
3806 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
3807 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
3808 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
3809 structure.
3810 [Steve Henson]
3811
3812 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
3813 need initialising.
3814 [Steve Henson]
3815
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00003816 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
3817 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
3818 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
3819 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
3820 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
3821 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
3822 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
3823 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
3824 be maintained manually.
3825
3826 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
3827 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
3828 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
3829 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
3830 work because people forget to call this function]
3831 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
3832 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
3833 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
3834 [Steve Henson]
3835
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00003836 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
3837 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
3838 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
3839 should be discouraged from doing it.
3840 [Ben Laurie]
3841
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00003842 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
3843 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
3844 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
3845 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
3846 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
3847 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
3848 [Steve Henson]
3849
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00003850 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
3851 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
3852 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00003853
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00003854 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00003855 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
3856 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00003857
3858 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
3859 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
3860 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
3861 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
3862 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
3863 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00003864
3865 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
3866 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
3867 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00003868
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00003869 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
3870 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
3871 and vice versa.
3872
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00003873 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
3874 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
3875 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
3876 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00003877 [Steve Henson]
3878
3879 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00003880 [Steve Henson]
3881
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00003882 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
3883 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
3884 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
3885 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
3886 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003887 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00003888 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
3889 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
3890 keys so we should be OK.
3891
3892 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
3893 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
3894 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
3895 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
3896 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
3897 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003898 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00003899
3900 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
3901 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
3902 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
3903
3904 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00003905 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
3906 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
3907 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
3908 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
3909 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
3910 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00003911 [Steve Henson]
3912
3913 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
3914 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
3915 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
3916 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
3917 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
3918 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
3919 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
3920 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
3921 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
3922 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
3923 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
3924 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
3925 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
3926 [Steve Henson]
3927
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00003928 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
3929 [Steve Henson]
3930
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00003931 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
3932 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
3933 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
3934 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
3935 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
3936 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
3937 single self signed certificate. This means that:
3938 openssl verify ss.pem
3939 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
3940 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
3941 is OK.
3942 [Steve Henson]
3943
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00003944 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
3945 (and add it to external session representation).
3946 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
3947 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
3948 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
3949 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
3950 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
3951 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
3952 security holes.

3954
Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00003955 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the

3957 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.

3961 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
3962 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
3963 [Steve Henson]
3964
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00003965 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
3966 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
3967 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust

3970
Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00003971 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments

Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00003984 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak

Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00003986 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
3987 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
3988 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
3989 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
3990 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.

Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00003997 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
3998 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
3999 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
4000 manpages and fix a few bugs.
4001 [Steve Henson]
4002
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00004003 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
4004 [Steve Henson]
4005
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00004006 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
4007 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
4008 [Steve Henson]
4009
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00004010 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
4011 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
4012 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
4013 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
4014 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004015 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00004016 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
4017 using the new 'x509' options.
4018
4019 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
4020 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
4021 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
4022 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
4023 for all purposes.
4024 [Steve Henson]
4025
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00004026 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
4027 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
4028 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
4029 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
4030 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
Mark J. Coxce2c95b1999-11-03 14:10:10 +00004031 [Mark Cox]
4032
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00004033 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
4034 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
4035 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
4036 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
4037 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004038 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00004039 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
4040 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
4041 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
4042 the key length and effective key length are equal.
4043 [Steve Henson]
4044
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00004045 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
4046 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
4047 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
4048 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
4049 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
4050 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
4051 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
4052 [Steve Henson]
4053
4054 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
4055 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
4056 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
4057 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
4058 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
4059 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
4060 openssl.cnf for more info.
4061 [Steve Henson]
4062
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00004063 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00004064 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00004065 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
4066 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
4067 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
4068 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
4069 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
4070 md should be large enough anyway.
4071 [Bodo Moeller]
4072
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004073 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
4074 for handling the random seed file.
4075
4076 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
4077 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004078 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004079 s_client,
4080 s_server,
4081 x509 (when signing).
4082 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
4083 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00004084 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004085
4086 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004087 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004088 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004089 that support '-rand'.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00004090 [Bodo Moeller]
4091
4092 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
4093 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
4094 [Bodo Moeller]
4095
4096 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
4097 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
4098 [Bill Perry]
4099
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00004100 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
4101 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
4102 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
4103 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
4104 is suitable.
4105 [Steve Henson]
4106
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00004107 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
4108 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
4109 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
4110 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
4111 [Steve Henson]
4112
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00004113 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
4114 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
4115 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
4116 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
4117 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
4118 print out all the purposes.
4119 [Steve Henson]
4120
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00004121 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
4122 functions.
4123 [Steve Henson]
4124
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00004125 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
4126 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
4127 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
4128 single function call.
4129 [Steve Henson]
4130
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00004131 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
4132 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
4133 [Andy Polyakov]
4134
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00004135 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
4136 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
4137 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
4138 [Steve Henson]
4139
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00004140 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
4141 when producing the local key id.
4142 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4143
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00004144 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
4145 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
4146 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
4147 "server.pem".
4148 [Steve Henson]
4149
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00004150 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
4151 a public key to be input or output. For example:
4152 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
4153 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
4154 [Steve Henson]
4155
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00004156 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
4157 in the message. This was handled by allowing
4158 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
4159 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
4160
4161 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
4162 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
4163 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
4164 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4165
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00004166 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
4167 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
4168 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
4169 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
4170 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
4171 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
4172 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
4173 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
4174 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
4175 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
4176 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
4177 trivial: move one line.
4178 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
4179
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00004180 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
4181 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
4182 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
4183 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
4184 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
4185 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
4186 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
4187 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
4188 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
4189 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
4190 with an event loop for example.
4191 [Steve Henson]
4192
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00004193 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
4194 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
4195 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
4196 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
4197 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
4198 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
4199 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
4200 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
4201 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
4202 [Steve Henson]
4203
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00004204 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
4205 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
4206 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004207 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00004208 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
4209 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
4210 [Steve Henson]
4211
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00004212 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
4213 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
4214 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
4215 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
4216
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00004217 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
4218 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
4219 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
4220 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
4221 key generation.
4222 [Steve Henson]
4223
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00004224 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
Bodo Möller6f7af151999-09-10 14:03:21 +00004225 (still largely untested)
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00004226 [Bodo Moeller]
4227
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00004228 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
4229 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
4230 [Steve Henson]
4231
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00004232 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
4233 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
4234 [Steve Henson]
4235
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00004236 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
4237 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
4238 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
4239 [Bodo Moeller]
4240
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00004241 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
4242 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
4243 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
4244 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
4245 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
4246 [Steve Henson]
4247
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00004248 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
4249 [Andy Polyakov]
4250
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00004251 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
4252 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
4253 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
4254 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
4255 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
4256 in ca.
4257 [Steve Henson]
4258
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00004259 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
4260 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
4261 1.OU="Unit name 1"
4262 2.OU="Unit name 2"
4263 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
4264 [Steve Henson]
4265
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00004266 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
4267 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
4268 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
4269 are otherwise ignored at present.
4270 [Steve Henson]
4271
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00004272 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00004273 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00004274 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
4275 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
4276 copied until the next read.
4277 [Steve Henson]
4278
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00004279 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
4280 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
4281 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
4282 [Steve Henson]
4283
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00004284 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
4285 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
4286 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
4287 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
4288 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
4289 associated functions.
4290 [Steve Henson]
4291
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00004292 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
4293 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
4294 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
4295 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
4296 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
4297 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
4298 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
4299 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
4300 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004301 memory BIOs.
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00004302 [Steve Henson]
4303
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00004304 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
4305 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
4306 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
4307 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
4308 [Bodo Moeller]
4309
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00004310 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
4311 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
4312 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
4313 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
4314 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
4315 functionality.
4316 [Steve Henson]
4317
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00004318 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
4319 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
4320 under Win32.
4321 [Steve Henson]
4322
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00004323 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00004324 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
4325 extensions to be obtained and added.

Bodo Möller1b1a6e71999-08-09 13:01:48 +00004328 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
4329 CRLF (as required by many protocols).

Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00004332 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
Ralf S. Engelschalldfbaf951999-08-08 19:12:26 +00004333
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00004334 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.

Ralf S. Engelschall96395151999-08-08 10:15:43 +00004337 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
4338 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
4339
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00004340 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
4341 program.
4342 [Steve Henson]
4343
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00004344 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
4345 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
4346 DH parameters contain its length).
4347
4348 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
4349 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
4350 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
4351 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
4352 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
4353 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
4354 utter importance to use
4355 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4356 or
4357 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4358 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
4359 attacks may become possible!
4360 [Bodo Moeller]
4361
4362 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
4363 [Bodo Moeller]
4364
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00004365 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
4366 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
4367 [Steve Henson]
4368
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00004369 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
4370 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
4371 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
4372 or long name.
4373 [Steve Henson]
4374
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00004375 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
4376 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
4377 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
4378 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00004379 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
4380 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
4381 private key operations.
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00004382 [Steve Henson]
4383
Andy Polyakova0618e31999-07-25 15:13:49 +00004384 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
4385 [Andy Polyakov]
4386
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00004387 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
4388 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
4389 to
4390 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
4391 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
4392 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
4393 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
4394 the password callback is called.
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00004395 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00004396
4397 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
4398
4399 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
4400 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
4401 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
4402 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
4403 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
4404 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
4405 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00004406
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00004407 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
4408 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
4409 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00004410 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
Bodo Möller57119941999-07-29 12:57:23 +00004411 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
4412 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).

4414
Andy Polyakov73634551999-07-20 15:50:20 +00004415 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
4416 [Andy Polyakov]
4417
Ulf Möller64344501999-07-16 00:50:45 +00004418 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
4419 delete an unused file.
4420 [Ulf Möller]
4421
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00004422 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
4423 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
4424 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
4425 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
4426 [Steve Henson]
4427
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00004428 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
4429 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
4430 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
4431 of an error.
4432 [Bodo Moeller]
4433
Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00004434 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
4435 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
4436 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4437
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00004438 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
4439 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
4440 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
4441 comparison" warnings.
4442 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.

Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00004444
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5139391999-07-11 12:40:46 +00004445 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
4446 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
4447 derived keys are printed to stderr.
4448 [Steve Henson]
4449
Dr. Stephen Henson0ab8beb1999-07-11 12:30:55 +00004450 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
4451 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
4452
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00004453 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
4454 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
4455
4456 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
4457 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
4458 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
4459
4460 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
4461 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
4462 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
4463 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
4464 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
4465 this bug.
4466 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
4467
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00004468 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
4469 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00004470 Applications can use
4471 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
4472 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
4473 "off" is now the default.
4474 The library internally uses
4475 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
4476 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
4477 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
4478
4479 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
4480 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00004481
4482 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
4483 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
4484 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00004485
4486 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
4487
4488 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
4489 extensions.
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00004490 [Bodo Moeller]
4491
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00004492 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
4493 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
4494 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00004495 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00004496
4497 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
4498 a single record has been written.
4499 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
4500 retries use the same buffer location.
4501 (But all of the contents must be
4502 copied!)
4503 [Bodo Moeller]
4504
Bodo Möller4b49bf62001-05-10 09:33:18 +00004505 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00004506 worked.
4507
Ulf Möller5271ebd1999-06-30 00:42:56 +00004508 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
4509 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
4510
Dr. Stephen Hensonce8b2571999-06-29 22:22:42 +00004511 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
4512 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
4513 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
4514 [Steve Henson]
4515
Bodo Möller9c729e01999-06-25 14:04:10 +00004516 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
4517 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
4518 test programs.
4519 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
4520
Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00004521 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
4522 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
4523 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
4524 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
4525 point to the end.

4527 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
4528
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00004529 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
4530 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
4531 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
4532 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
4533 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
4534 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
4535 [Steve Henson]
4536
Dr. Stephen Hensondbd665c1999-06-22 01:38:31 +00004537 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
4538 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
4539 necessary function names.
4540 [Steve Henson]
4541
Bodo Möllerf76a8081999-06-21 11:32:25 +00004542 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00004543 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
Bodo Möller975d3dc1999-07-09 13:02:14 +00004544 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00004545 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.

4547
Dr. Stephen Henson8623f691999-06-20 17:36:11 +00004548 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
4549 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
4550 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
4551 [Steve Henson]
4552
Bodo Möllera1113061999-06-18 16:14:18 +00004553 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
4554 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
4555 must use this, not the compile-time macro.

4561
Bodo Möller95d29591999-06-12 01:03:40 +00004562 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
4563 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
4564 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
4565 [Bodo Moeller]
4566
4567 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
4568 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
4569 appropriate.
4570 [Bodo Moeller]
4571
Dr. Stephen Henson9bce3071999-06-11 22:30:45 +00004572 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value

4577 [Steve Henson]
4578
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7d135b1999-06-10 17:32:52 +00004579 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
4580 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
4581 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
4582 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.

4584
Ralf S. Engelschall9d9b5591999-06-10 08:13:52 +00004585 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5

4587 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4588
Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00004589 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
4590 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
4591 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
4592 unusual formatting.
4593 [Steve Henson]
4594
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00004595 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
4596 to use the new extension code.
4597 [Steve Henson]
4598
4599 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
4600 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra

4626 [Ulf Möller]
4627
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00004628 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
4629 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
4630 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
4631 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00004640 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
4641 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
4642 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
4643 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
4644 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
4645 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
4646 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
4647 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
4648 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.

Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00004651 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00004652 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
4653 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
4654 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
4655 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
4656 value doesn't matter.

Ralf S. Engelschall1b276f31999-03-24 10:24:35 +00004719
Ulf Möllere14d4441999-05-20 01:43:07 +00004720 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
4721 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
4722 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4723
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00004724 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
4725 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
4726 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
4727 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
4728 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
4729 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
4730 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
4731 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
4732 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
4733 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
4734 [Steve Henson]
4735
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00004736 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
4737 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
4738 [Steve Henson]
4739
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00004740 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00004741 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00004742 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
4743 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
4744 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
4745
4746 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
4747 [Bodo Moeller]
4748
Dr. Stephen Henson84fa7041999-05-16 00:25:36 +00004749 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
4750 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
4751 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
4752 [Steve Henson]
4753
Ben Laurie62bad771999-05-15 15:59:28 +00004754 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
4755 [Ben Laurie]
4756
Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00004757 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
4758 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
4759 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
4760 key elements as negative integers.
4761 [Steve Henson]
4762
Ulf Möllerbd3576d1999-05-13 13:16:42 +00004763 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.

4767 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
4768
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5eac851999-05-12 01:56:27 +00004769 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
4770 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
4771 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
4772 [Steve Henson]
4773
Bodo Möllerb31b04d1999-05-11 07:43:16 +00004774 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
4775 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
4776 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
4777 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
4778 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
4779 [Bodo Moeller]
4780
Ulf Möllerd5a2ea41999-05-10 23:59:28 +00004781 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.

4787 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4788
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00004789 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
4790 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
4791 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
4792
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00004793 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
4794 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
4795 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
4796 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
4797 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
4798 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
4799 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
4800 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
4801 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
4802
4803 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
4804 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
4805 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
4806 does not influence s as it used to.
4807
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00004808 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00004809 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
4810 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
4811 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
4812 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
4813 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

4815
Dr. Stephen Hensonc8b41851999-05-09 16:39:11 +00004816 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
4817 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
4818 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
4819 key type.
4820 [Steve Henson]
4821
Dr. Stephen Hensone40b7ab1999-05-08 12:59:50 +00004822 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
4823 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
4824 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
4825 and 'x509').
4826 [Steve Henson]
4827
4828 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
4829 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
4830 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
4831 extension option.
4832 [Steve Henson]
4833
Ben Laurie5b640021999-05-07 15:42:23 +00004834 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,

4857 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4858
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00004859 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
4860 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
4861 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
4862 DER-encoded.)
4863 [Bodo Moeller]
4864
Bodo Möller7f897141999-05-01 03:20:40 +00004865 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
4866 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
4867 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
4868 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
4869 now it really counts the depth.
4870 [Bodo Moeller]
4871
Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00004872 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
4873 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
4874 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
4875 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
4876 didn't match the private key).
4877
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00004878 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
Bodo Möllerdd1462f1999-05-01 00:07:42 +00004879 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each

Bodo Möller87bc2c01999-04-29 16:10:41 +00004890 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems

4915
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00004916 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI

Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00004923 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
4924 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
4925 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
4926 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
4927 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
4928 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
4929 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
4930 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00004931 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
4932 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

4972
Ulf Möller22a4f961999-04-19 13:54:11 +00004973 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
4974 [Ulf Möller]
4975
Ulf Möller5e85b6a1999-04-19 13:41:45 +00004976 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.

4978
Dr. Stephen Henson3edd7ed1999-04-19 17:55:11 +00004979 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00004980 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.

4982
Ben Lauriee7788021999-04-17 21:25:43 +00004983 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
4984 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
4985 [Ben Laurie]
4986
Dr. Stephen Hensonc83e5231999-04-17 23:55:39 +00004987 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
4988 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
Dr. Stephen Hensond77b3051999-04-17 15:53:32 +00004989 [Steve Henson]
4990
Dr. Stephen Henson1d48dd01999-04-16 23:57:04 +00004991 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
4992 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
4993 [Steve Henson]
4994
Dr. Stephen Henson953937b1999-04-15 23:07:00 +00004995 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
4996 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
4997 [Steve Henson]
4998
Dr. Stephen Henson28a98801999-04-14 23:44:41 +00004999 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to

5008 [Steve Henson]
5009
Ulf Möller5fbe91d1999-04-13 00:58:49 +00005010 *) New Configure option "rsaref".

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00005022 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
5023 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
5024 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
5025 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
5026 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
5027 [Ben Laurie]
5028
Ralf S. Engelschallf9a25931999-04-12 11:45:14 +00005029 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
5030 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
5031 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
5032 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.

5034
Ralf S. Engelschall2f0cd191999-04-12 10:36:16 +00005035 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
5036 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
5037 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
5038 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5039
Ralf S. Engelschall268c2101999-04-12 09:59:05 +00005040 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
5041 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
5042 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
5043 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5044
Bodo Möllerfc8ee061999-04-11 02:49:35 +00005045 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
5046 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
5047 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
5048 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
5049 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
5050 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
5051 [Bodo Moeller]
5052
Bodo Möllerc7ac31e1999-04-09 20:54:25 +00005053 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when

5085 [Steve Henson]
5086
Dr. Stephen Henson8d8c7261999-03-28 23:17:34 +00005087 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and

5090 [Steve Henson]
5091
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcefcb1999-03-28 17:46:10 +00005092 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and

5094 codes along the way.
5095 [Steve Henson]
5096
Dr. Stephen Henson4b518c21999-03-28 01:00:56 +00005097 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to

5116

Ben Laurieb4cadc61999-03-22 12:22:14 +00005124 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
5125 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
5126 [Ben Laurie]
5127
5128 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
5129 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
5130 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
5131 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
5132 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
5133
Ralf S. Engelschallafb23061999-03-20 13:04:12 +00005134 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
5135 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
5136 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
5137 document.
5138 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5139
Dr. Stephen Henson199d59e1999-03-14 01:16:45 +00005140 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
5141 Malloc, Free.
5142 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
5143
Ben Laurieb4899bb1999-03-12 20:41:09 +00005144 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
5145 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5146
Ben Laurie29c0fcc1999-03-12 20:26:27 +00005147 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
5148 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
5149 if someone would make that last step automatic.
5150 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
5151
Ben Lauriecadf1261999-03-12 19:58:43 +00005152 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
5153 [Ben Laurie]
5154
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00005155 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
5156 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
5157 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
5158 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
5159 [Steve Henson]
5160
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00005161 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
5162 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
5163 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
5164 [Steve Henson]
5165
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00005166 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
5167 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
5168 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
5169 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
5170 installed as `perl').
5171 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5172
Ralf S. Engelschall637691e1999-03-10 19:51:43 +00005173 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.

5175
Dr. Stephen Henson83ec54b1999-03-10 01:37:33 +00005176 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
5177 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
5178 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
Dr. Stephen Henson38138021999-03-10 18:30:48 +00005179 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h

5184 [Ben Laurie]
5185
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00005186 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
5187 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
5188 is horrible: I feel ill....
5189 [Steve Henson]
5190
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00005191 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
5192 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
5193 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
5194 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.

Ralf S. Engelschalld10f0521999-03-08 12:35:01 +00005197 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
5198 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5199
Ralf S. Engelschallc0e538e1999-03-08 11:41:26 +00005200 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
5201 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
5202 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
5203 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5204
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00005205 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
5206 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
5207 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
5208 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
5209 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
5210 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
5211 openssl_bio.xs.
5212 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5213
Ben Laurie26a08461999-03-07 15:08:38 +00005214 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.

5218 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
5219
Ben Laurieefadf601999-03-07 15:21:08 +00005220 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.

5222
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00005223 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
5224 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
5225 in CRLs.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00005226 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00005227
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00005228 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
5229 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
5230 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
5231 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
5232 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
5233 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
5234 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
5235 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
5236 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
5237 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
5238 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5239
Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +00005240 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
5241 [Ben Laurie]
5242
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +00005243 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
5244 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
5245 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
5246 for linking it into DSOs.
5247 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5248
Ben Laurief415fa31999-03-06 14:09:36 +00005249 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
5250 Fixed.
5251 [Ben Laurie]
5252
Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +00005253 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
5254 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
5255 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
5256 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
5257 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
5258 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5259
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00005260 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
5261 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
5262 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
5263 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
5264 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
5265 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
5266 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5267
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00005268 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
5269 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
5270 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
5271 encryption.
5272 [Ben Laurie]
5273
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00005274 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
5275 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
5276 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
5277 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
5278 [Steve Henson]
5279
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00005280 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
5281 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
5282 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
5283 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
5284 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
5285 field as blank.
Dr. Stephen Henson9985bed1999-03-04 23:29:51 +00005286 [Steve Henson]
5287
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +00005288 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
5289 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
5290 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
5291 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
5292 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5293
Ralf S. Engelschalla06c6021999-03-04 07:54:01 +00005294 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
5295 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
5296 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
5297
Ralf S. Engelschall8d697db1999-03-04 07:47:27 +00005298 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
5299 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
5300
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +00005301 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
5302 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
5303 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
5304 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
5305 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
5306 [Steve Henson]
5307
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00005308 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
5309 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
5310 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
5311 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
5312 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00005313 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
5314 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
5315 [Ben Laurie]
5316
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00005317 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
5318 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
5319 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
5320 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
5321 [Ben Laurie]
Ralf S. Engelschall74d7abc1999-02-27 12:17:40 +00005322
5323 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
5324 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
Ralf S. Engelschall0172f981999-01-30 11:36:05 +00005325
Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00005326 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
5327 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
5328 [Steve Henson]
5329
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00005330 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
5331 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
5332 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
5333 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
5334 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
5335 (e.g. s_server).
5336 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
5337 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
5338 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
5339 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
5340 no way to reconfigure them.
5341 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
5342 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
5343 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
5344 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
5345 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
5346 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5347
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00005348 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
5349 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
5350 recognized by the users.
5351 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5352
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00005353 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
5354 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
5355 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
5356 already masked variable.
5357 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5358
Ralf S. Engelschalldef9f431999-02-25 10:54:27 +00005359 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
5360 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5361
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +00005362 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
5363 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
5364 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
5365 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5366
Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +00005367 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
5368 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
5369 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5370
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00005371 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
5372 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
5373 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
5374 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
5375 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
5376 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
5377 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
5378 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
5379 now, too.
5380 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5381
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00005382 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
5383 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
5384 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5385
Dr. Stephen Hensona43aa731999-02-23 00:07:46 +00005386 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
5387 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
5388 config file.
5389 [Steve Henson]
5390
Ben Laurie0849d131999-02-22 21:21:08 +00005391 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
5392 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
5393
Ben Laurie06ab81f1999-02-21 20:03:24 +00005394 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
5395 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
5396 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
5397 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
5398 [Ben Laurie]
5399
Dr. Stephen Hensondeff75b1999-02-21 17:41:08 +00005400 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
5401 [Steve Henson]
5402
Dr. Stephen Henson0c8a1281999-02-21 17:39:07 +00005403 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
5404 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5405
Ben Laurie4004dbb1999-02-20 11:50:07 +00005406 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
5407 [Ben Laurie]
5408
Dr. Stephen Henson0ca5f8b1999-02-19 01:29:29 +00005409 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
5410 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00005413 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
5414 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
5415 [Steve Henson]
5416
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00005417 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
5418 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
5419 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
5420 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
5421 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
5422 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.

5427 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5428
5429 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
5430 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
5431 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
5432 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00

5434
Dr. Stephen Hensona8236c81999-02-15 21:05:21 +00005435 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
5436 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00005437 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c

5439
Dr. Stephen Henson388ff0b1999-02-14 16:48:22 +00005440 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
5441 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
5442 an example.

Ralf S. Engelschall6013fa81999-02-14 13:21:52 +00005445 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
5446 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
5447 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5448
Dr. Stephen Henson5c008791999-02-14 00:40:13 +00005449 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
5450 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
5451 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
5452 build instructions.
5453 [Steve Henson]
5454
Dr. Stephen Henson9becf661999-02-13 23:13:32 +00005455 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
5456 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
5457 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
5458 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
5459 [Steve Henson]
5460
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +00005461 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
5462 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
5463 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
5464 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
5465 [Ben Laurie]
5466
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +00005467 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
5468 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
5469 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
5470 so it wasn't spotted.
5471 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
5472
Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +00005473 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
5474 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
5475 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
5476 vectors if you have them.
5477 [Ben Laurie]
5478
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00005479 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
Ben Laurie436d3181999-02-13 12:39:50 +00005480 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
5481 [Ben Laurie]
5482
Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00005483 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
5484 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
5485 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
5486 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
5487 If you do a:
5488 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
5489 it will update them.

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00005492 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
5493 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
5494 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
5495 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
5496 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
5497 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
5498 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
5499 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5500
Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00005501 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
5502 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
5503 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
5504 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
5505 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
5506 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
5507 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
5508 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
5509 the crypto/md/ stuff).
5510 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5511
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00005512 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
5513 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
5514 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
5515 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
5516 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
5517 [Steve Henson]
5518
Dr. Stephen Hensonbceacf91999-02-09 01:29:37 +00005519 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
5520 INTEGER code.
5521 [Steve Henson]
5522
Mark J. Cox351d8991999-01-31 12:14:39 +00005523 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.

Ben Lauriea96e7811999-01-30 17:53:00 +00005529 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
5530 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
5531 [Ben Laurie]
5532

5544 [Steve Henson]
5545
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00005546 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION

5559
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +00005560 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify

5562 [Steve Henson]
5563
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00005564 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'

5576 [Steve Henson]
5577
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00005578 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
5579 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
5580 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
5581 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
5582 properly to be processed.

5584
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +00005585 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another

5592
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00005593 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
5594 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
5595 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
5596 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
5597 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
5598 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
5599 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
5600 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
5601 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00005604 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
5605 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
5606 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
5607 to regenerate it if needed.

5615 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
5616 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
5617 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
5618 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.

5641
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00005642 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
5643 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
5644 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
5645 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
5646 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
5647 OID is not part of the table.

5710
Ralf S. Engelschall06d5b161999-01-02 12:59:33 +00005711 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
5712 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'

5742 [Steve Henson]
5743
5744 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
5745 [Steve Henson]
5746

5750 [Steve Henson]
5751
Ralf S. Engelschallce72df11998-12-30 23:07:32 +00005752 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
5753 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
5754 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
5755 the new set of documenation files.

5757
Ben Laurie4098e891998-12-29 21:43:55 +00005758 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
5759 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
5760 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
5761 number of arguments.
