Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00005 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.9 [xx XXX xxxx]
Mark J. Cox3ff55e92006-09-28 13:18:43 +00006
Andy Polyakov4c7c5ff2007-09-27 07:09:46 +00007 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
8 "family."

10
Dr. Stephen Henson67c8e7f2007-09-26 21:56:59 +000011 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
12 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
13 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
14 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
15 to s_client and s_server.
16 [Steve Henson]
17
Bodo Möller761772d2007-09-21 06:54:24 +000018 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
19 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
20 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
21 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
22 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
23 to use. For example, specify an option
24
25 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
26
27 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
28 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
29 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
30 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
31 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
32 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
33
34 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
35 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
36 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
37 return non-zero for success.
38
39 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
40 by using
41
42 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
43 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
44
45 where
46
47 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
48 void *arg;
49
50 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
51 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
52 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
53 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
54 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
55 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
56 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
57 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
58 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
59
60 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
61 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
62 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
63 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
64 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
65 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
66
67 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
68 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
69 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
70 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
71 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
72 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
73
74 [Bodo Moeller]
75
Dr. Stephen Henson81025662007-08-31 12:42:53 +000076 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
77 MAC.
78
79 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
80
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +000081 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
82 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
83 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
84 supported.
85
Dr. Stephen Hensonba0e8262007-08-23 22:59:09 +000086 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
87 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
88 SSL_SESSION.
89
90 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
91 protection in servers so again support should be possible
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +000092 with no application modification.
93
94 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
95 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
96
97 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
98 or server extensions to be examined.
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5d7472007-08-27 23:41:36 +000099
100 This work was sponsored by Google.
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +0000101 [Steve Henson]
102
Dr. Stephen Henson3c07d3a2007-06-07 13:14:42 +0000103 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
104 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
105 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
106
Dr. Stephen Hensonb948e2c2007-06-04 17:04:40 +0000107 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
108 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
109 ciphersuite support.
110 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
111
Dr. Stephen Henson9cfc8a92007-04-13 01:06:41 +0000112 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
113 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
114 to output in BER and PEM format.
115 [Steve Henson]
116
Dr. Stephen Henson47b71e62007-04-11 12:33:28 +0000117 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
118 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
119 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
Dr. Stephen Henson2022cfe2007-04-11 17:20:40 +0000120 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
121 -macopt options to dgst utility.
Dr. Stephen Henson47b71e62007-04-11 12:33:28 +0000122 [Steve Henson]
123
Dr. Stephen Hensond952c792007-04-08 12:47:18 +0000124 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
125 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
126 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
127 utility.
128 [Steve Henson]
129
Bodo Möllerfd5bc652007-02-20 16:36:58 +0000130 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
131 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
132 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
133 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
134 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
135 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
136 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
137 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
138 enabled again.
139
140 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
141 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
142 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
143 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
144
145 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
146 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
147 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
148 the default order.
149 [Bodo Moeller]
150
Bodo Möller0a051232007-02-19 18:41:41 +0000151 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
152 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
153 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
154 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
155 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
156 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
157 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
158 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
159 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
160
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +0000161 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
162 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
163 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
164 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
165 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
166 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
167 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
168 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
169 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
170 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
171 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
172 kinds of kludges.
173
174 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
175 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
176 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
177
178 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
179 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
180 "CAMELLIA256".
181 [Bodo Moeller]
182
Nils Larsch357d5de2007-02-03 14:41:12 +0000183 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
184 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
185 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
186 [Nils Larsch]
187
Dr. Stephen Henson11d8cdc2006-12-24 16:22:56 +0000188 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
189 it yet and it is largely untested.
190 [Steve Henson]
191
Nils Larsch06e2dd02006-12-20 08:58:54 +0000192 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
193 [Nils Larsch]
194
Dr. Stephen Hensonde121162006-11-16 00:19:39 +0000195 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
Dr. Stephen Henson297e6f12007-06-04 17:53:04 +0000196 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
Dr. Stephen Hensona6fbcb42007-09-07 13:25:15 +0000197 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonde121162006-11-16 00:19:39 +0000198 [Steve Henson]
199
Andy Polyakov31897722006-10-23 07:38:30 +0000200 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
201 [Andy Polyakov]
202
Dr. Stephen Henson010fa0b2006-09-21 12:42:15 +0000203 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
204 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
205 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
206 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
207 [Steve Henson]
208
Dr. Stephen Henson5d20c4f2006-09-17 17:16:28 +0000209 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
210 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
211 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
212 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
213 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
214 [Steve Henson]
215
216 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
217 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
218 [Cryptocom]
219
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc7535b2006-09-14 17:25:02 +0000220 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
221 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
222 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
223 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
224 [Steve Henson]
225
226 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
227 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
228 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
229 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
230 [Steve Henson]
231
Dr. Stephen Hensonf6e7d012006-07-25 17:39:38 +0000232 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
233 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
234 [Steve Henson]
235
Dr. Stephen Hensonedc54022006-07-24 12:39:22 +0000236 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
237 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
238 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
239 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
240 [Steve Henson]
241
Dr. Stephen Henson450ea832006-07-18 12:36:19 +0000242 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
243 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
244 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
245 [Steve Henson]
246
Dr. Stephen Henson454dbbc2006-07-17 13:26:54 +0000247 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
248 utility.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc1c6c0b2006-07-17 12:18:28 +0000249 [Steve Henson]
250
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7683e32006-07-10 18:36:55 +0000251 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
252 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
253 [Steve Henson]
254
255 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
256 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
257 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
258 if necessary.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
Dr. Stephen Henson0ee21662006-07-09 16:05:43 +0000261 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
262 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
263 to free up any added signature OIDs.
264 [Steve Henson]
265
Dr. Stephen Henson5ba4bf32006-07-09 00:53:45 +0000266 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
267 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
268 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
269 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
270 [Steve Henson]
271
Bodo Möller48fc5822006-06-23 15:21:36 +0000272 *) In addition to the numerical (unsigned long) thread ID, provide
273 for a pointer (void *) thread ID. This helps accomodate systems
274 that do not provide an unsigned long thread ID. OpenSSL assumes
275 it is in the same thread iff both the numerical and the pointer
276 thread ID agree; so applications are just required to define one
277 of them appropriately (e.g., by using a pointer to a per-thread
278 memory object malloc()ed by the application for the pointer-type
279 thread ID). Exactly analoguous to the existing functions
280
281 void CRYPTO_set_id_callback(unsigned long (*func)(void));
282 unsigned long (*CRYPTO_get_id_callback(void))(void);
283 unsigned long CRYPTO_thread_id(void);
284
285 we now have additional functions
286
287 void CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(void *(*func)(void));
288 void *(*CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(void))(void);
289 void *CRYPTO_thread_idptr(void);
290
291 also in <openssl/crypto.h>. The default value for
292 CRYPTO_thread_idptr() if the application has not provided its own
293 callback is &errno.
294 [Bodo Moeller]
295
Bodo Möllerc4e78702006-06-18 22:00:57 +0000296 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
297 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
298 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
299 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
300 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
301 the array representation useful in a more general context.
302 [Douglas Stebila]
303
Bodo Möller89bbe142006-06-14 17:40:31 +0000304 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
305 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
306 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
307 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
308 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
309
310 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
311 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
312 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
313 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
314 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
315 protocol).
316
317 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
318 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
319 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
320 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
321
322 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
323 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
324 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
325 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
326 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
327
328 aECDH - ECDH cert
329 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
330 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
331
332 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
333 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
334
335 [Bodo Moeller]
336
Dr. Stephen Hensonfb7b3932006-06-06 13:27:36 +0000337 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
338 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
339 [Steve Henson]
340
Dr. Stephen Henson01b8b3c2006-06-05 11:52:46 +0000341 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
342 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
343 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonde9fcfe2006-06-02 17:52:27 +0000344
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +0000345 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9777d22006-06-02 12:33:39 +0000346 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
347 functional reference processing.
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +0000348 [Steve Henson]
349
Dr. Stephen Henson91c9e622006-05-24 17:30:09 +0000350 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
351 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
352 process.
353 [Steve Henson]
354
Dr. Stephen Henson55311922006-05-18 23:44:44 +0000355 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
356 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
357 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
358 [Steve Henson]
359
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7fcd2006-05-18 12:41:28 +0000360 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
361 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
362 application to support multiple signers.
363 [Steve Henson]
364
Dr. Stephen Henson121dd392006-05-17 18:46:22 +0000365 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
366 digest MAC.
367 [Steve Henson]
368
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +0000369 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8f702a2006-05-15 17:34:36 +0000370 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3a1ea2006-05-15 18:35:13 +0000371 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
372 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
373 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +0000374 [Steve Henson]
375
Dr. Stephen Henson34b3c722006-05-14 16:50:22 +0000376 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
Dr. Stephen Henson959e8df2006-05-11 21:39:00 +0000377 new API.
378 [Steve Henson]
379
Dr. Stephen Henson399a6f02006-05-08 12:44:25 +0000380 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
381 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
382 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
383 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
384 a no op.

Dr. Stephen Henson03919682006-05-07 17:09:39 +0000387 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
388 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
389 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
390 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
391 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
392 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
393 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
394 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
395 [Steve Henson]
396
Dr. Stephen Hensonee1d9ec2006-04-19 17:05:59 +0000397 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
398 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
399 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
400 between digests and public key types.
401 [Steve Henson]
402
Dr. Stephen Hensond2027092006-04-18 23:36:07 +0000403 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
404 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
405 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
406 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
407 [Steve Henson]
408
Dr. Stephen Henson492a9e22006-04-17 17:12:23 +0000409 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO

411 key ASN1 method.
412 [Steve Henson]
413

416
Dr. Stephen Hensonffb1ac62006-04-13 20:16:56 +0000417 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and

419 [Steve Henson]
420
Dr. Stephen Henson3ba08852006-04-12 23:51:24 +0000421 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
422 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
423 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
424 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
425 pkey, genpkey.

Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +0000435 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
436 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
437 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
438 functionality for RSA.
439 [Steve Henson]
440
Dr. Stephen Hensonf733a5e2006-04-07 16:42:09 +0000441 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented

443 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
444 [Steve Henson]
445

461 [Steve Henson]
462
Dr. Stephen Henson3e4585c2006-03-28 14:35:32 +0000463 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +0000464 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key

467
Dr. Stephen Henson35208f32006-03-22 13:09:35 +0000468 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New

470 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
471 structure.
472 [Steve Henson]
473
Dr. Stephen Henson448be742006-03-20 12:22:24 +0000474 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
475 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
476 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
477 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant

Nils Larschddac1972006-03-10 23:06:27 +0000486 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
487 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the

505
Bodo Möller1aeb3da2006-01-06 09:08:59 +0000506 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
507 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
508 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
509 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
510 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
511 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
512 server_name extension.
Bodo Möllerf1fd4542006-01-03 03:27:19 +0000513

Bodo Möller241520e2006-01-11 06:10:40 +0000530 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
531 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
532 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
533 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
534 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
535 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'

541 [Andy Polyakov]
542
Andy Polyakov0cb9d932005-12-16 11:12:42 +0000543 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
544 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
545 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
546 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
547 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
548 [Andy Polyakov]
549
Bodo Möller8dee9f82005-11-15 21:08:38 +0000550 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c

557 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
558 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
559 [Andy Polyakov]
560
Dr. Stephen Henson566dda02005-10-08 00:18:53 +0000561 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively

619
Bodo Möller96afc1c2007-04-23 23:48:59 +0000620 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
621 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
622 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
623
624 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
625 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
626 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
627 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
628
629 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8

631 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
632 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
633
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +0000634 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
635 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
636 information. For detailed background information, see
637 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
638 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
639 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
640 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
641 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
642 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
643 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
Bodo Möllerb0022652007-03-28 18:41:23 +0000644 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
645 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
646 remove a conditional branch.
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +0000647
648 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
649 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
650 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
651 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
652 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
653 remains as a deprecated alias.
654
655 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
656 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
657 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
658 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
659
660 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
661 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
662 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
663 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
664 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
665 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
666 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
667 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.

669 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
670
Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +0000671 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
672 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
673 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
674 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
675 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
676 with applications using a single external cache for quite
677 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
678 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
679 in a different context.

688
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +0000689 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
690 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
691 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
692 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
693 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).

697 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
698 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
699 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER

735 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
736 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
737 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
738
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +0000739 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
740 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
Bodo Möllerb6699c32006-09-12 14:42:19 +0000741 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
742 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +0000743 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
744 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
745 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
746 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
747 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
748
749 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
750 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
751 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
752 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
753 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
754
755 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
756 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
757 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
758 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
759 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
760 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
761 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
762 multiple values to extend the available space.

772 [Ben Laurie]
773
Bodo Möllere34aa5a2006-06-28 14:50:12 +0000774 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
775 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
776 undesirable limitations.
777 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
778
Bodo Möller81de1022006-06-22 12:37:28 +0000779 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
780 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
781 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
782 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
783 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
784 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
785 to avoid potential handshake problems.

791 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
792 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
793
794 The latter two were purportedly from

796 appear there.
797
Nils Larschfec38ca2006-12-21 21:13:27 +0000798 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from

801 [Bodo Moeller]
802
Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +0000803 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
804 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
805 [Bodo Moeller]
806
Bodo Möllerf3dea9a2006-06-09 15:44:59 +0000807 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
808 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
809 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
810 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
811
812 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
813 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
814 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.

816
Dr. Stephen Henson5cda6c42006-05-07 12:30:37 +0000817 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
818 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
819 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
820 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
821 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
822 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.

842 [Steve Henson]
843
Dr. Stephen Hensonad2695b2005-12-05 13:46:46 +0000844 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
845 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
846 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
847 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
848 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
849 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
850 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
851 can't be loaded.
852 [Steve Henson]
853
Dr. Stephen Henson452ae492005-11-20 13:07:47 +0000854 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
855 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
856 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
857 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
858 [Steve Henson]
859
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbf002b2005-11-06 17:58:26 +0000860 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries

925 [Richard Levitte]
926
Geoff Thorpea2c32e22005-05-29 19:14:21 +0000927 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
928 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
929 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
930 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
931 this only applies when building 'shared'.

937 [Steve Henson]
938
Nils Larsch800e4002005-04-26 22:31:48 +0000939 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
940 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
941 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
942 - add new function for parameter creation
943 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
944 BN_BLINDING parameters
945 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
946 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve

Bodo Möllerecc5ef82005-03-02 20:11:31 +0000972 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
973
974 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
975 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
976
977 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA

1023 [Geoff Thorpe]
1024
Andy Polyakovad500342004-05-31 14:03:02 +00001025 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
1026 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
1027

1030 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
1031
Geoff Thorpebcfea9f2004-04-26 15:31:35 +00001032 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public

1035 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
1036
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00001037 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
1038 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
1039
1040 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
1041 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
1042 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
1043 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
1044 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
1045 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
Dr. Stephen Henson64674bc2004-04-20 12:05:26 +00001046 [Steve Henson]
1047
Geoff Thorpe3a87a9b2004-04-19 17:46:04 +00001048 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
1049 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
1050 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
1051 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
1052 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
1053 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
1054 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
1055 [Geoff Thorpe]
1056
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf5773f2004-03-31 12:55:33 +00001057 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
1058 [Steve Henson]
1059
Dr. Stephen Henson216659e2004-03-28 17:38:00 +00001060 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
1061 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
1062 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
1063 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
1064 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
1065 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
1066 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
1067 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
1068 [Steve Henson]
1069
Dr. Stephen Hensone1a27eb2004-03-27 22:49:28 +00001070 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
1071 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
1072 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
1073 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
1074 [Steve Henson]
1075
Dr. Stephen Henson6446e0c2004-03-27 13:30:14 +00001076 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
1077 syntax:
1078
1079 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
1080 [Steve Henson]
1081
Geoff Thorpe5c98b2c2004-03-25 04:16:14 +00001082 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
1083 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
1084 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
1085 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
1086 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
1087 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
1088 BN_CTX's "bundling".
1089 [Geoff Thorpe]
1090
Geoff Thorpe46ef8732004-03-25 02:52:04 +00001091 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
1092 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
1093 [Geoff Thorpe]
1094
Dr. Stephen Henson4acc3e92004-03-23 14:14:35 +00001095 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
1096 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
1097 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
1098 [Steve Henson]
1099
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00001100 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
1101 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
1102 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
1103 below).
1104 [Geoff Thorpe]
1105
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00001106 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
1107 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.

Geoff Thorpeb6358c82004-03-13 23:57:20 +00001110 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
1111 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
1112 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
1113 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
1114 [Geoff Thorpe]
1115
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00001116 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
1117 initialised value as BN_new().
1118 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
1119
Dr. Stephen Hensonedec6142004-03-08 13:56:31 +00001120 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
1121 [Steve Henson]
1122
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00001123 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
1124 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
1125 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
1126 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
1127 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
1128 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
1129 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
1130 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
1131 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
1132 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
1133 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
1134 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
1135 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
1136 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.

Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00001138
Geoff Thorpe2ce90b92003-10-29 18:04:37 +00001139 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
1140 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
1141 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
1142 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
1143 [Geoff Thorpe]
1144
Geoff Thorpe8dc344c2003-10-29 04:57:05 +00001145 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
1146 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
1147 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
1148 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
1149 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
1150 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
1151 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
1152 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
1153 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
1154 [Geoff Thorpe]
1155
Geoff Thorpe0991f072003-10-29 04:40:13 +00001156 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
1157 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
1158 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
1159 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
1160 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
1161 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
1162 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
1163 [Geoff Thorpe]
1164
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00001165 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
Geoff Thorpe2aaec9c2003-10-29 04:14:08 +00001166 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
1167 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
1168 these have been updated also.
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00001169 [Geoff Thorpe]
1170
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00001171 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
1172 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
1173 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
1174 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
1175 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
1176 functions.

Ralf S. Engelschall6bd27f82003-09-25 13:57:58 +00001183 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
1184 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
1185 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
1186 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
1187 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
1188 situation in the script.
1189 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1190
Bodo Möller968766c2003-07-22 12:34:21 +00001191 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1192 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
1193 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
1194 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
1195 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
1196 used as premaster secret.
1197 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1198
Bodo Möller652ae062003-07-22 10:39:10 +00001199 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
1200 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
1201 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1202
Richard Levittee666c452003-06-11 22:42:28 +00001203 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
1204 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
1205
Richard Levitte54f64512003-06-11 20:49:58 +00001206 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
1207 control of the error stack.
1208 [Richard Levitte]
1209
Richard Levitte3bbb0212003-05-01 03:57:46 +00001210 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
1211 [Richard Levitte]
1212
Richard Levittea5db6fa2003-05-01 03:53:12 +00001213 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
1214 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
1215 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
1216 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
1217 [Richard Levitte]
1218
Richard Levitte535fba42003-05-01 03:45:18 +00001219 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
1220 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
1221 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
1222 [Richard Levitte]
1223
Richard Levitte1ae0a832003-04-29 22:08:57 +00001224 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
1225 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
1226 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
1227 a memory area.
1228 [Richard Levitte]
1229
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +00001230 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
1231 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
1232 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
1233 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
1234 [Richard Levitte]
1235
Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +00001236 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
1237 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
1238 the following flags are defined:
1239
1240 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
1241 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1242 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
1243 number.
1244
1245 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
1246 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1247 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
1248 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
1249 returns zero.

Richard Levitte16b1b032003-04-03 22:33:59 +00001252 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
1253 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
1254 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
1255 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
1256 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
1257 [Richard Levitte]
1258
Richard Levittee6526fb2003-04-03 22:27:24 +00001259 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
1260 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
1261 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
1262 [Richard Levitte]
1263
Richard Levittef85b68c2003-04-03 16:33:03 +00001264 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1265 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1266 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1267 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1268 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1269 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1270 [Richard Levitte]
1271
Dr. Stephen Henson1a15c892003-03-30 01:51:16 +00001272 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for

1281
Dr. Stephen Hensona1d12da2003-03-20 17:26:44 +00001282 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1283 [Steve Henson]
1284
Geoff Thorpe879650b2003-03-11 01:49:21 +00001285 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1286 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1287 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1288 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1289 default implementation more easily.
1290 [Geoff Thorpe]
1291
Dr. Stephen Hensonf0dc08e2003-02-27 01:54:11 +00001292 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1293 in config files.

1298 [Richard Levitte]
1299
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00001300 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1301 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1302 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1303 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1304
Dr. Stephen Hensone9ec6392003-02-25 19:03:31 +00001305 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00001306 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1307 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1308 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1309 [Steve Henson]
1310
Richard Levitte2d3de722003-02-13 23:52:54 +00001311 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1312 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1313 to do it.
1314 [Richard Levitte]
1315
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001316 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +00001317 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001318 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +00001319 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001320 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,

1322 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1323
Dr. Stephen Henson4e5d3a72003-02-05 00:34:31 +00001324 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1325 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1326 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1327 correctly.
1328 [Steve Henson]
1329
Geoff Thorpe96f70652003-01-30 15:52:40 +00001330 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1331 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1332 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1333 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
1334 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
1335 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
1336 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
1337 linker additions, eg;
1338 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
1339 [Geoff Thorpe]
1340
1341 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
1342 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
1343 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
1344 [Geoff Thorpe]
1345
Lutz Jänickea74333f2003-01-15 14:54:59 +00001346 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1347 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1348 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
1349 via PR#459)
1350 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1351
Geoff Thorpe0e4aa0d2003-01-15 02:01:55 +00001352 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
1353 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
1354 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
1355 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
1356 [Geoff Thorpe]
1357
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +00001358 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
1359 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
1360 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
1361 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
1362 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
1363 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
1364 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
1365 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
1366 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
1367 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00001368
1369 Example for using the new callback interface:

1378 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
1379 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
1380 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.

Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00001392 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
1393 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
1394
1395 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {

Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00001399
1400 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
1401 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
1402
1403 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
1404 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
1405 well.

Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +00001429 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
1430 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
1431 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
1432 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
1433 directory engines/.
1434 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
1435 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
1436 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
1437 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
Richard Levitte874fee42002-10-12 16:07:31 +00001438 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
1439 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
1440 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +00001441 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
1442
Richard Levitte30afcc02002-10-11 00:37:11 +00001443 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
1444 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
1445 [Richard Levitte]
1446
Dr. Stephen Hensonfc6a6a12002-10-04 21:22:47 +00001447 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
1448 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
1449
Dr. Stephen Henson9a48b072002-10-03 23:53:52 +00001450 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
1451 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
1452 files while avoiding the low level API.
1453
1454 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
1455 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
1456 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
1457 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
1458
1459 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
1460 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
1461 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
1462 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
1463 instead of the low level API.
1464 [Steve Henson]
1465
Dr. Stephen Henson230fd6b2002-10-03 12:38:52 +00001466 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
1467 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
1468 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
1469 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
1470 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
1471 PKCS#7 code.
1472
1473 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
1474 down to the template encoder.
1475 [Steve Henson]
1476
Bodo Möller9226e212002-09-10 07:34:45 +00001477 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
1478 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
1479 [Bodo Moeller]
1480
Bodo Möllerea262262002-08-09 08:56:08 +00001481 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
1482 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
1483 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
1484 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1485
Bodo Möllere172d602002-08-09 08:43:04 +00001486 *) Add ECDH engine support.
1487 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1488
1489 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
1490 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1491
Bodo Möller95ecacf2002-08-02 15:02:03 +00001492 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
1493 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
1494 [Bodo Moeller]
1495
Bodo Möller6fb60a82002-08-02 14:57:53 +00001496 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
1497 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
1498 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
1499 [Bodo Moeller]
1500
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00001501 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
1502 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
1503
1504 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1505 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1506
1507 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
1508 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
1509 New EC_METHOD:
1510
1511 EC_GF2m_simple_method
1512
1513 New API functions:
1514
1515 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
1516 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
1517 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00001518 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1519 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1520 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
1521
1522 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
1523 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
1524 enable it).
1525
1526 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
1527 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
1528 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
1529 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
1530 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +00001531 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
1532 various internal method names.)
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00001533
1534 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
1535 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
1536
1537 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1538 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1539
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +00001540 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00001541 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
1542
1543 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
1544 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
1545 methods are undefined.
1546
1547 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1548 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1549
1550 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
1551 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
1552 length of the modulus.
1553
1554 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1555 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1556
1557 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
1558 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
1559
1560 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1561 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1562
Bodo Möller1dc920c2002-08-02 13:03:55 +00001563 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
1564 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
1565 used) in the following functions [macros]:
1566
1567 BN_GF2m_add
1568 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
1569 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
1570 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
1571 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
1572 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
1573 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
1574 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
1575 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
1576 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
1577
1578 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
1579 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
1580
1581 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
1582 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
1583 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
1584 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
1585 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
1586 where
1587 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
1588 This applies to the following functions:
1589
1590 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
1591 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
1592 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
1593 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
1594 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
1595 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
1596 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
1597 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
1598 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1599 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1600
1601 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
1602
1603 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1604 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1605
1606 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
1607
Bodo Möller909abce2002-08-02 18:26:02 +00001608 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
1609 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
1610 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
1611 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
1612 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).

1615 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1616
Bodo Möller16dc1cf2002-08-02 12:28:34 +00001617 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
1618 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
1619 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
1620
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00001621 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
1622 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
1623
1624 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
1625 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
1626 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
1627 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
1628 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1629
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +00001630 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
1631 functions
1632 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
1633 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
1634 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
1635 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
1636 These control ASN1 encoding details:
Bodo Möllerb8e0e122002-06-12 14:19:01 +00001637 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
1638 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +00001639 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +00001640 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
1641 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
1642 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
1643 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +00001644
1645 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
1646 functions
1647 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
1648 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
1649 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
1650 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).

1652
1653 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
1654 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
1655 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
1656 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1657
Bodo Möller6cbe6382002-05-30 13:16:03 +00001658 *) Add functions
1659 EC_POINT_point2bn()
1660 EC_POINT_bn2point()
1661 EC_POINT_point2hex()
1662 EC_POINT_hex2point()
1663 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
1664 EC_POINT_oct2point().
1665 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1666
Bodo Möllerb6db3862002-05-08 11:54:24 +00001667 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
1668 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
1669 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
1670 EC_GROUP_get_order()
1671 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
1672 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
1673 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
1674 adding different types of curves.

Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +00001677 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
1678 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
1679 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
1680 [Bodo Moeller]
1681
Bodo Möller82652aa2002-03-20 16:04:04 +00001682 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
1683 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
1684
1685 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
1686 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
1687 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
1688 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1689
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00001690 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00001691
Bodo Möller5dbd3ef2002-07-14 16:54:31 +00001692 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
1693 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00001694
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00001695 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
1696 library. Most notably,
1697 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
1698 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
1699 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
1700 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
1701 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
Bodo Möllere172d602002-08-09 08:43:04 +00001702 extracted before the specific public key;
1703 - ECDSA engine support has been added.

Bodo Mölleraf28dd62002-03-18 13:10:45 +00001706 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
Bodo Möllered5e37c2002-09-02 07:12:08 +00001707 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new

Nils Larsch8b15c742005-05-10 11:37:47 +00001709 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
Bodo Möllered5e37c2002-09-02 07:12:08 +00001710 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
1711 EC_get_builtin_curves().
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +00001712 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
1713 accessed via

Bodo Möllerc1862f92003-01-24 22:28:32 +00001718 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1719 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1720 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1721 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1722 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1723 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1724 differing sizes.

Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00001727 Changes between 0.9.7m and 0.9.7n [xx XXX xxxx]
1728
1729 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
1730 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
1731 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
1732 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
1733 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
1734 with applications using a single external cache for quite
1735 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
1736 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
1737 in a different context.

1745
Bodo Möller0a051232007-02-19 18:41:41 +00001746 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
1747 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
1748 authentication-only ciphersuites.
1749 [Bodo Moeller]
1750
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00001751 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
1752 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
1753 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.

1797 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
1798 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
1799 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
1800 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
1801 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
1802 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
1803 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.

1852 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
1853 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
1854 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be

1880 [Bodo Moeller]
1881
Bodo Möller46a64372005-05-16 01:43:31 +00001882 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
Bodo Möller91b17fb2005-05-16 19:14:34 +00001883 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of

1945 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
1946
1947 This change has negligible security impact because:
1948
1949 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
1950 data.
1951
1952 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
1953 handshake.

Dr. Stephen Hensoncf566632003-02-12 17:06:02 +00002190 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
2191 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
2192 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
2193 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
2194
2195 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
2196
2197 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
2198
2199 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
2200
2201 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
2202 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
2203 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
2204 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
2205 root is omitted).

Richard Levittea1457872002-12-13 07:30:53 +00002259 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
2260 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
Richard Levitte14676ff2002-12-12 17:40:15 +00002261 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
2262 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
2263 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
2264 of libcrypto.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002474 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
Bodo Möller023ec152002-02-28 10:52:56 +00002475 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
2476 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
2477 declaration has been changed from
2478 int (*cb)()
2479 into
2480 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
2481 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
2482 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
2483 has been changed into
2484 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
2485
2486 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
2487 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.

Dr. Stephen Hensone84be9b2002-02-23 01:00:44 +00002494 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
2495 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
2496 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
2497 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
2498 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
2499 always load it have also been added.

2615 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
2616 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
2617 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
2618 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
2619 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
2620 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
2621 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
2622 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the

Richard Levitte2d57b732002-01-26 01:14:09 +00002664 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00002665 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
2666 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
2667 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
2668 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00002669
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00002670 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
2671 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
2672 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
2673 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
2674
2675 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
2676 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
2677 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
2678 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
2679
2680 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
2681 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
2682 won't work.

2686 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00002687 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002725 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00002726 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
2727 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
2728 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
2729 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
2730 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
2731 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
2732 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
2733 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
2734 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
2735 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
2736 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
2737 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
2738 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
2739 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
2740 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
2741 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
2742 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
2743 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
2744 the new code.

2757 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
2758 false once a handshake has been completed.
2759 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
2760 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
2761 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002787 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +00002788 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
2789 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
2790 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002793 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00002794 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
2795 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
2796 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
2797 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
2798 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
2799 [Geoff Thorpe]
2800
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002801 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00002802 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
2803 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
2804 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
2805 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
2806 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
2807 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
2808 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).

2817
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002818 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the

2821
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002822 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00002823 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
2824 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
2825 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
2826 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
2827 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
2828 [Ben Laurie]
2829
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002830 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00002831 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
2832 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
2833 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
2834 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
2835 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
2836 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
2837 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
2838 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
2839 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
2840 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
2841 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
2842 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
2843 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
2844 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +00002845
2846 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
2847 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
2848 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00002849 [Geoff Thorpe]
2850
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002851 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +00002852 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
2853 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
2854 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
2855 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
2856 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
2857 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
2858 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
2859 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
2860 [Geoff Thorpe]
2861
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002862 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00002863 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
2864 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
2865 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
2866 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +00002867
2868 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".

2876
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002877 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
Dr. Stephen Henson35bf3542001-08-17 00:33:43 +00002878 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
2879 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
2880 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
2881 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.

2883
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002884 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00002885 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +00002886 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00002887 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
2888 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
2889 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

2891
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002892 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
Bodo Möller76f8a1f2002-06-26 14:21:16 +00002893 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
2894 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00002895 Usage example:

2898
2899 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
2900 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002907 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
Ben Laurie8408f4f2001-07-31 13:33:58 +00002908 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
2909 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
2910 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00002911 anyway): E.g.,
2912
2913 des_key_schedule ks;
2914
2915 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
2916 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
2917
2918 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)

2920
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002921 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +00002922 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
2923 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
2924 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
2925 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
2926 functions prevents this.

2934 [Ben Laurie]
2935
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002936 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
Dr. Stephen Hensonee306a12001-07-12 20:41:51 +00002937 revocation information is handled using the text based index
2938 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle

2945
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002946 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
Richard Levitte0665dd62001-07-12 04:23:57 +00002947 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
2948 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
2949 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
2950
2951 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003036 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
Richard Levitte496da8b2001-05-13 10:37:02 +00003037 that are easily reachable.
3038 [Richard Levitte]
3039
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003040 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
Dr. Stephen Henson4831e622001-05-12 23:57:41 +00003041 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
3042
3043 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
3044
3045 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003046 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
Dr. Stephen Henson4831e622001-05-12 23:57:41 +00003047 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
3048 needed for static libraries under Win32.
3049 [Steve Henson]
3050
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003051 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
Dr. Stephen Henson926a56b2001-05-10 00:13:59 +00003052 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
3053 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
3054 [Steve Henson]
3055
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003056 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdee69f2001-05-09 00:30:39 +00003057 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
3058 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
3059 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
3060 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
3061 internally such as S/MIME.
3062
3063 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
3064 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
3065 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
3066
3067 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
3068 applications.
3069 [Steve Henson]
3070
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003071 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
Dr. Stephen Hensonb545dc62001-05-07 22:52:50 +00003072 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
3073 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
3074 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
3075
3076 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3077
3078 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
3079
3080 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
3081 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
3082 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
3083 handling.
3084 [Steve Henson]
3085
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003086 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
Bodo Möller8a774dc2001-06-11 09:55:20 +00003087 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
3088 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
3089 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
3090 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
3091 a window system and the like.
Richard Levittea63d5ea2001-05-06 23:19:37 +00003092 [Richard Levitte]
3093
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003094 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00003095 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
3096 [Geoff]
3097
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003098 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00003099 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
3100 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
3101 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
3102 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
3103 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
3104 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
3105 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
3106 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
3107 ENGINE structure.
3108 [Geoff]
3109
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003110 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9624792001-04-21 12:06:01 +00003111 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
3112 tag cache.
3113 [Steve Henson]
3114
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003115 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003116 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
3117 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
3118 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
3119 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
3120 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
3121 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
3122 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
3123 [Geoff]
3124
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003125 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003126 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
3127 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
3128 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
3129 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
3130 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
3131 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
3132 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
3133 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
3134 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
3135 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
3136 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
3137 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
3138 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
3139 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
3140 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
3141 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
3142 [Geoff]
3143
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003144 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003145 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
3146 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
3147 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
3148 internal engine_int.h header.
3149 [Geoff]
3150
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003151 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00003152 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
3153 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
3154 modify their own ones).
3155 [Geoff]
3156
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003157 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00003158 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
3159 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
3160 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
3161 later on via ctrl() commands.
3162 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
3163 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
3164 structural references.
3165 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
3166 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
3167 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
3168 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
3169 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Möllere13ae962001-09-10 18:59:53 +00003170 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00003171 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
3172 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
3173 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
3174 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
3175 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
3176 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
3177 [Geoff]
3178
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003179 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003180 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +00003181 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
3182 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
3183 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
3184 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
3185 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
3186 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

3188
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003189 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
Dr. Stephen Henson722ca272001-04-02 00:59:19 +00003190 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
3191 [Steve Henson]
3192
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003193 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
Dr. Stephen Henson791bd0c2001-03-16 02:04:17 +00003194 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
3195 [Steve Henson]
3196
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003197 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
Dr. Stephen Henson535d79d2001-03-15 19:13:40 +00003198 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
3199 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
3200 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
3201 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
3202 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
3203 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

Bodo Möller48fe4d62001-03-10 23:18:35 +00003218
3219 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
3220 operations and provides various method functions that can also
3221 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
3222
3223 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of

3232
Bodo Möller6f8f4432001-03-10 23:37:52 +00003233 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)

3238 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
Bodo Möller6f8f4432001-03-10 23:37:52 +00003239 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
3240 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.

3242
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003243 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires

3246
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003247 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4f682d2001-03-10 01:56:48 +00003248 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
3249 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
3250 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
3251 is 40 of more characters long.
3252 [Steve Henson]
3253
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003254 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures

3270 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003300 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003301 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
3302 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
3303 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
3304 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
3305 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
3306
3307 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3308 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3309
3310 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3311 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3312
3313 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3314 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3315
3316 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3317 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3318 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3319 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3320
3321 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003322 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003323
3324 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003325 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003326
3327 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3328 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3329 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3330 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3331 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).

Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003350 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00003351 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
3352 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
3353 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
3354 ocsp utility.

3356
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003357 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003358 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
Dr. Stephen Henson4ff18c82001-02-24 01:42:21 +00003359 [Steve Henson]
3360
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003361 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
Dr. Stephen Hensond7c06e92001-02-23 13:04:24 +00003362 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
3363 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
3364 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
3365 [Steve Henson]
3366
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003367 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00003368 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
3369 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
3370 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
3371 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
3372 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
3373 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
3374 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
3375 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
3376 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
3377 [Steve Henson]
3378
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003379 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00003380 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
3381 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
3382 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
3383 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
3384 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
3385 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
3386 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3387
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003388 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
Richard Levitted399fdf2001-02-21 14:12:03 +00003389 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
3390 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
3391 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
3392 [Richard Levitte]
3393
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003394 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00003395 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
3396 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
3397 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
3398 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00003399 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
3400 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
3401 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
3402 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
3403 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
3404 what is available.
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00003405 [Richard Levitte]
3406
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003407 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
Dr. Stephen Hensonacba75c2001-02-19 13:38:32 +00003408 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
3409 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
3410 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
3411 auto incremented.
3412 [Steve Henson]
3413
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003414 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6b7ffd2001-02-16 01:35:44 +00003415 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
3416 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
3417 [Steve Henson]
3418
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003419 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
Dr. Stephen Hensonf2e5ca82001-02-14 02:11:52 +00003420 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
3421 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
3422 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
3423 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
3424 [Steve Henson]
3425
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003426 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
Dr. Stephen Hensoncdc7b8c2001-02-14 01:12:41 +00003427 [Steve Henson]
3428
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003429 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
Dr. Stephen Henson67c18012001-02-13 00:37:44 +00003430 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
3431 option to ocsp utility.
3432 [Steve Henson]
3433
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003434 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00003435 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
3436 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
3437 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
3438 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
3439 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
3440 the request is nonce-less.
3441 [Steve Henson]
3442
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003443 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
Bodo Möller620cea32001-02-10 13:12:35 +00003444 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
3445 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
3446 [Bodo Moeller]
3447
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003448 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
Dr. Stephen Hensonccb08f92001-02-10 00:56:45 +00003449 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
3450 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
3451 [Steve Henson]
3452
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003453 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
Lutz Jänicke836f9962001-02-09 19:56:31 +00003454 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
3455 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
3456 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
Lutz Jänickeb72fadd2001-08-01 10:07:55 +00003457 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
Lutz Jänicke836f9962001-02-09 19:56:31 +00003458 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3459
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003460 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
Dr. Stephen Hensonc47c6192001-02-09 13:16:21 +00003461 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
3462 appear to exist.
3463 [Steve Henson]
3464
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003465 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
Dr. Stephen Henson8c950422001-02-08 19:36:10 +00003466 additional certificates supplied.
3467 [Steve Henson]
3468
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003469 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
Richard Levitte9235adb2001-02-08 17:59:29 +00003470 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
3471 signature against.
3472 [Richard Levitte]
3473
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003474 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00003475 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +00003476 AES OIDs.
3477
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00003478 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
3479 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
3480 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
3481 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
3482 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
3483 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
3484 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
3485 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
3486 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00003487
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003488 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
Dr. Stephen Henson26e083c2001-02-05 00:35:06 +00003489 request to response.
3490 [Steve Henson]
3491
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003492 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00003493 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
3494 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
3495 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
3496 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003497 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00003498 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
3499 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
3500 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
3501 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
3502 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
3503 [Steve Henson]
3504
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003505 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00003506 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003507 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00003508 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
3509 [Steve Henson]
3510
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003511 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8470242001-01-28 14:20:13 +00003512 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3513
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003514 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00003515 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003516 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00003517 [Steve Henson]
3518
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003519 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00003520 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
3521 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
3522 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3523 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3524
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003525 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00003526 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
3527 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
3528 [Steve Henson]
3529
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003530 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00003531 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
3532 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
3533 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
3534 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
3535 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
3536 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3537 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3538
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003539 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00003540 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
3541 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
3542 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
3543 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
3544 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
3545 [Steve Henson]
3546
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003547 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00003548 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
3549 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
3550 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
3551 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
3552 printout format cleaned up.
3553 [Steve Henson]
3554
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003555 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00003556 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
3557 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
3558 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
3559 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
3560 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
3561 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
3562 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
3563 [Steve Henson]
3564
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003565 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00003566 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
3567 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
3568 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
3569 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
3570 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
3571 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
3572 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
3573 [Steve Henson]
3574
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003575 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
Bodo Möllerdfebac32001-01-15 11:35:24 +00003576 extensions from a separate configuration file.
3577 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
3578 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
3579 section to use.
3580 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3581
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003582 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
Dr. Stephen Henson5782ceb2001-01-13 01:48:38 +00003583 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
3584 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
3585 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
3586 [Steve Henson]
3587
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003588 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
Bodo Möllerc67cdb52001-01-12 14:50:44 +00003589 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
3590 the given serial number (according to the index file).
3591 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
3592 in the index file.
3593 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3594
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003595 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
Bodo Möllerd1998582001-01-11 13:23:19 +00003596 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
3597 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
3598 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3599
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003600 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
Richard Levitte10a29752001-01-11 12:58:37 +00003601 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
3602
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003603 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
Dr. Stephen Henson9b4dc832001-01-11 00:52:50 +00003604 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
3605 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
3606 [Steve Henson]
3607
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003608 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
Bodo Möller673b3fd2001-01-10 15:15:36 +00003609 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
3610 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
3611 [Bodo Moeller]
3612
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003613 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00003614 file name and line number information in additional arguments
3615 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
3616 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
3617 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
3618 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
3619 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
3620 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +00003621
3622 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
3623 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
3624 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
3625 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
3626
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00003627 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.

Geoff Thorpe3c914842001-01-09 00:24:38 +00003635 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
Geoff Thorpe56a67ad2001-01-09 16:39:04 +00003636 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003641 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00003642 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
3643 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
3644 be queried.
3645 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
3646 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
3647 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003650 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00003651 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
3652 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
3653 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
3654 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
3655 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
3656 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
3657 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
3658 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003661 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00003662 provide utility functions which an application needing
3663 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
3664 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
3665 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
3666
3667 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
3668 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
3669 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
3670 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
3671 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
3672 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
3673 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
3674 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
3675 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
3676
3677 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
3678 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
3679 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
3680 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
3681 [Steve Henson]
3682
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003683 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00003684 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
3685 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
3686 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
3687 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
3688 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
3689 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
3690 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
3691 will be added elsewhere.
3692 [Steve Henson]
3693
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003694 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from

3696 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
3697 can be used to send requests and parse the response.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003700 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00003701 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
3702 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
3703 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
3704 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
3705 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
3706 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
3707 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
3708 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
3709 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
3710 to produce the required SET OF.

3720 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
3721 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
3722 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant

3918 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
3919 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
3920 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
3921
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003922 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00003923 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3924 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00003925 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3926 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00003927 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3928 differing sizes.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003932 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00003933 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
3934 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
3935 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
3936 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
3937
3938 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
3939 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
3940 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
3941 cause any problems.
3942 [Bodo Moeller]
3943
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003944 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.

3946
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003947 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
Richard Levittee06433d2000-11-07 11:25:26 +00003948 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
3949 [Richard Levitte]
3950
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003951 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00003952 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
3953 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
3954 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
3955 time)

3960
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003961 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
Richard Levitte020fc822000-11-06 21:15:54 +00003962 [Richard Levitte]
3963
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003964 *) Add the following functions:
Richard Levitte11c0f122000-11-02 20:33:04 +00003965
3966 ENGINE_load_cswift()
3967 ENGINE_load_chil()
3968 ENGINE_load_atalla()
3969 ENGINE_load_nuron()
3970 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
3971
3972 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
3973 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
3974 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
3975 libraries unless it's really needed.
3976
3977 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
3978 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
3979 declarations (they differed!).
3980 [Richard Levitte]
3981
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003982 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.

3990
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003991 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
Richard Levitte14c6d272000-11-01 02:57:35 +00003992 identity, and test if they are actually available.
3993 [Richard Levitte]
3994
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003995 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
Richard Levitte501ebf12000-10-31 23:26:32 +00003996 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
3997 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3998
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003999 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
Richard Levitte3aba98e2000-10-28 22:44:03 +00004000 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
4001 [Richard Levitte]
4002

4011
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004012 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was

4014 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
4015
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004016 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
Geoff Thorpe1df586b2000-10-26 20:02:33 +00004017 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
4018 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
4019 different shared library filenames on each system.
4020 [Geoff Thorpe]
4021
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004022 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.

4024
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004025 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
Dr. Stephen Henson627ec352000-10-20 00:36:45 +00004026 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
4027 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
4028 of two sections.

4030
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004031 *) NCONF changes.
Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00004032 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
4033 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
4034 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
4035 binary backward compatibility.
4036 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
4037 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
4038 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
4039 LDAP server.
4040 [Richard Levitte]
4041
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004042 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
Dr. Stephen Henson924046c2000-10-12 01:50:33 +00004043 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
4044 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
4045 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
4046 this case.
4047 [Steve Henson]
4048
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004049 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.

4051
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004052 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
Dr. Stephen Henson8ca533e2000-10-06 11:51:47 +00004053 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function

4103
4104 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4105 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4106 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4107 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4108 [Bodo Moeller]
4109
4110 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4111 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4112 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4113 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4114 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4115
4116 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4117 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4118 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4119 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4120 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4121 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4122 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4123 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4124 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

4128
4129 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4130 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4131 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4132 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish

Richard Levittedf29cc82002-11-27 12:24:05 +00004141 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
4142 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
4143 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
4144 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
4145 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
4146 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.

Bodo Möllere78f1372002-09-23 14:25:07 +00004189 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in

Lutz Jänicke82a20fb2002-08-16 17:04:04 +00004198 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
4199 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
4200 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>

4202 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
4203
Dr. Stephen Henson2af52de2002-08-14 00:48:02 +00004204 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content

4221
Bodo Möller5574e0e2002-08-02 11:48:15 +00004222 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
4223 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
4224 assertions could call abort()).

Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00004227 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
4228
4229 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4230 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4231 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4232 supplied buffer.

Lutz Jänicke063a8902002-07-10 06:41:55 +00004235 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
4236 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
4237 by the selection routines (PR #130).
4238 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4239
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00004240 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
4241 [Nils Larsch]
4242
Bodo Möllerc21506b2002-06-14 12:21:11 +00004243 *) New option
4244 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
4245 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
4246 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
4247
4248 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
4249 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
4250 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
4251 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
4252 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
4253 applications.
4254 [Bodo Moeller]
4255
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00004256 *) Changes in security patch:
4257
4258 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
4259 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
4260 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
4261 F30602-01-2-0537.
4262
4263 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4264 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4265 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00004266 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)

4272
4273 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were

Bodo Möller8df61b52002-04-26 08:28:34 +00004287 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not

Lutz Jänicke2940a122002-04-15 09:55:40 +00004294 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
4295 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
4296 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
4297 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
4298 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov

4300 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4301
Bodo Möller82b0bf02002-04-13 22:47:20 +00004302 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
4303 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
4304 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
4305 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
4306 [Bodo Moeller]
4307
4308 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
4309 [Bodo Moeller]
4310
4311 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
4312 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
4313 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
4314 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4315 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4316 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4317
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00004318 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4319 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4320 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4321 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4322 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4323 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4324
4325 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4326 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4327 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4328 BN_generate_prime().)
4329
4330 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4331 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4332 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4333 better.
4334 [Bodo Moeller]
4335
4336 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
4337 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
4338 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4339
4340 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
4341 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
4342 when using non-blocking I/O.
4343 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
4344
4345 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
4346 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
4347
4348 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
4349 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
4350 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4351
4352 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
4353 configuration for the versions before that.
4354 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4355
4356 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
4357 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
4358 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
4359 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
4360 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4361
4362 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
4363 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
4364 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
4365 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4366
4367 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
4368 value is 0.
4369 [Richard Levitte]
4370
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00004371 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
4372 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4373 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4374
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00004375 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
4376 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
4377
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00004378 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
4379 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
4380 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
4381 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
4382 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
4383 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
4384 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
4385 session cache.
4386
4387 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
4388 using a local variable.
4389 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4390
4391 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
4392 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
4393 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4394
4395 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
4396 [Richard Levitte]
4397
4398 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
4399 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
4400
4401 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
4402 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
4403 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
4404
4405 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
4406
4407 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
4408 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
4409 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
4410 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
4411 [Bodo Moeller]
4412
4413 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
4414 present.
4415 [Steve Henson]
4416
4417 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
4418 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
4419 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
4420 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
4421 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
4422
4423 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
4424 returns early because it has nothing to do.
4425 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4426
4427 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4428 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
4429 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4430
4431 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4432 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
4433 (Use engine 'keyclient')
4434 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
4435
4436 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
4437 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
4438 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
4439 modules).
4440 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
4441
4442 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4443 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
4444 from 0.9.7.
4445 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
4446
4447 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4448 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
4449 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4450 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
4451
4452 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4453 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
4454 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4455 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
4456
4457 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
4458 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
4459
4460 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
4461 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
4462 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
4463 [Bodo Moeller]
4464
4465 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
4466 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
4467 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
4468 become invalid.
4469 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
4470
4471 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
4472 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
4473 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
4474 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
4475 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
4476 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
4477 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
4478 [Bodo Moeller]
4479
4480 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
4481 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
4482 one of the SSL handshake functions.
4483 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
4484
4485 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
4486 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
4487 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
4488 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
4489 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
4490 the client will at least see that alert.
4491 [Bodo Moeller]
4492
4493 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
4494 correctly.
4495 [Bodo Moeller]
4496
4497 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
4498 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
4499 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4500
4501 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
4502 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
4503 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
4504 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
4505 HelloRequest.
4506
4507 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
4508 before just sending a HelloRequest.
4509 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
4510
4511 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
4512 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
4513 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
4514 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
4515 may leak via logfiles.)
4516
4517 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
4518 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
4519 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
4520 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
4521 the legal range.
4522 [Bodo Moeller]
4523
4524 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
4525 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4526 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4527
4528 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
4529 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
4530 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
4531 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
4532 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
4533 [Bodo Moeller]
4534
4535 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
4536 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
4537
4538 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
4539 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
4540 followed by modular reduction.
4541 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
4542
4543 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
4544 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
4545 [Bodo Moeller]
4546
4547 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
4548 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
4549 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
4550 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
4551 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4552
4553 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
4554 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4555
4556 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
4557 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
4558 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4559
4560 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
4561 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
4562 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
4563 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
4564 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
4565 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
4566 automatically.
4567 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
4568
4569 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
4570 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
4571 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
4572 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
4573 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
4574
4575 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
4576 [Andy Polyakov]
4577
4578 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
4579 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
4580 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
4581 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
4582 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
4583 to allow the necessary settings.
4584 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4585
4586 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
4587 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
4588 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
4589 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
4590 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4591
4592 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
4593 dh->length and always used
4594
4595 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
4596
4597 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
4598 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
4599 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
4600 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
4601 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
4602 dh->length.
4603
4604 So switch back to
4605
4606 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
4607
4608 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
4609 otherwise.
4610 [Bodo Moeller]
4611
4612 *) In
4613
4614 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
4615 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
4616 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
4617 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
4618
4619 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
4620 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
4621 always reject numbers >= n.
4622 [Bodo Moeller]
4623
4624 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
4625 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
4626 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
4627 variable) is not atomic.
4628 [Bodo Moeller]
4629
4630 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
4631 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
4632 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
4633 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
4634
4635 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
4636 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
4637
4638 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
4639 little-endian MIPS.
4640 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
4641
4642 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
4643 [Richard Levitte]
4644
4645 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
4646
4647 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
4648 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
4649 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
4650 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
4651 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
4652 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
4653 to traverse all of 'state'.
4654
4655 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
4656 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
4657 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
4658
4659 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
4660 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
4661
4662 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
4663 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
4664 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
4665 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
4666 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
4667 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
4668 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
4669 further strengthens the PRNG.
4670 [Bodo Moeller]
4671
4672 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
4673 [Andy Polyakov]
4674
4675 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
4676 an error message in this case.
4677 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4678
4679 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
4680 [Steve Henson]
4681
4682 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
4683 positive and less than q.
4684 [Bodo Moeller]
4685
4686 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
4687 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
4688 that itself.
4689 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
4690
4691 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
4692 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
4693 [Bodo Moeller]
4694
4695 *) Fix OAEP check.
4696 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
4697
4698 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
4699 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
4700 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
4701 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
4702 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
4703 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
4704 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
4705 paper.)
4706
4707 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
4708 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
4709 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
4710 detect the supposedly ignored error.
4711
4712 Both problems are now fixed.
4713 [Bodo Moeller]
4714
4715 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
4716 (previously it was 1024).
4717 [Bodo Moeller]
4718
4719 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
4720 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
4721 [Steve Henson]
4722
4723 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
4724 [Steve Henson]
4725
4726 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
4727 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
4728 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
4729 [Steve Henson]
4730
4731 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
4732 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
4733 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
4734 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
4735 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
4736 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
4737 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
4738 environment variables.
4739
4740 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
4741 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
4742 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
4743 [Bodo Moeller]
4744
4745 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
4746 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
4747 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
4748 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
4749 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
4750 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
4751 [Bodo Moeller]
4752
4753 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
4754 versions of 'test'.
4755 [Bodo Moeller]
4756
4757 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
4758
4759 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
4760 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
4761
4762 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
4763 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
4764 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
4765 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
4766 CygWin.
4767 [Richard Levitte]
4768
4769 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
4770 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
4771 amount of data available.
4772 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
4773 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4774
4775 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
4776 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
4777 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
4778 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
4779 [Bodo Moeller]
4780
4781 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
4782 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
4783 and UnixWare.
4784 [Richard Levitte]
4785
4786 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
4787 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
4788 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
4789 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
4790 [Ulf Moeller]
4791
4792 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
4793 [Andy Polyakov]
4794
4795 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
4796 [Richard Levitte]
4797
4798 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
4799 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
4800 [Steve Henson]
4801 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4802
4803 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
4804 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
4805 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
4806 (but broken) behaviour.
4807 [Steve Henson]
4808
4809 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
4810 it when found.
4811 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
4812
4813 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
4814 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
4815 [Bodo Moeller]
4816
4817 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
4818 did not exist.
4819 [Bodo Moeller]
4820
4821 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
4822 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
4823
4824 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
4825 [Richard Levitte]
4826
4827 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
4828 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
4829 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
4830
4831 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
4832 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
4833 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
4834 [Steve Henson]
4835
4836 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
4837 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
4838 [Ulf Moeller]
4839
4840 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
4841 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
4842
4843 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
4844
4845 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
4846
4847 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
4848 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
4849 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
4850 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
4851 [Bodo Moeller]
4852
4853 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
4854 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4855
4856 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
4857 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
4858 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
4859
4860 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
4861 was empty.
4862 [Steve Henson]
4863 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4864
4865 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
4866 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
4867 but the code is actually correct.
4868 [Steve Henson]
4869
4870 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
4871 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
4872 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
4873 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
4874 and leaves the highest bit random.
4875 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4876
4877 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
4878 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
4879 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
4880 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
4881 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
4882 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
4883 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
4884 [Bodo Moeller]
4885
4886 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
4887 [Ulf Moeller]
4888
4889 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
4890 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
4891 [Steve Henson]
4892
4893 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
4894 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
4895 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
4896 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
4897 headers.
4898 [Richard Levitte]
4899
4900 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
4901 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
4902 and break the signature.
4903 [Steve Henson]
4904 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4905
4906 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
4907 DH ciphersuites.
4908 [Steve Henson]
4909
4910 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
4911 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
4912 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
4913 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
4914 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
4915 [Bodo Moeller]
4916
4917 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
4918 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
4919
4920 *) ./config script fixes.
4921 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
4922
4923 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
4924 [Bodo Moeller]
4925
4926 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
4927 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
4928 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
4929 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
4930 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
4931
4932 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
4933 call failed, free the DSA structure.
4934 [Bodo Moeller]
4935
4936 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
4937 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
4938 [Steve Henson]
4939
4940 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
4941 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
4942 when writing a 32767 byte record.
4943 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
4944
4945 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
4946 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
4947
4948 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
4949 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
4950 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
4951 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
4952 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
4953
4954 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
4955 [Bodo Moeller]
4956
4957 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
4958 [Ulf Möller]
4959
4960 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
4961 [Ulf Möller]
4962
4963 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
4964 [Bodo Moeller]
4965
4966 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
4967 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
4968 [Bodo Moeller]
4969
4970 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
4971 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
4972 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
4973 result of the server certificate verification.)
4974 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4975
4976 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
4977 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
4978 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
4979 [Bodo Moeller]
4980
4981 *) Fix SSL_peek:
4982 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
4983 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
4984 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
4985 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
4986 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
4987 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
4988 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
4989 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
4990 [Bodo Moeller]
4991
4992 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
4993 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
4994 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
4995 happening the other way round.
4996 [Geoff Thorpe]
4997
4998 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
4999 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
5000 [Bodo Moeller]
5001
5002 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
5003 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
5004 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
5005 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
5006 [Richard Levitte]
5007
5008 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
5009 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
5010
5011 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
5012
5013 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
5014 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
5015 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
5016 that.
5017
5018 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
5019
5020 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
5021
5022 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
5023 static ones.
5024 [Richard Levitte]
5025
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00005026 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
5027
5028 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
5029 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
5030 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
5031 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
5032 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
5033
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00005034 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
5035 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
5036 matter what.
5037 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00005038
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00005039 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
5040 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5041
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00005042 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00005043
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00005044 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
5045 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
5046 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
5047 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
5048 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00005049 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00005050 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
5051 by the Finished messages.

5056
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00005057 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
5058 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
5059 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
5060 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
5061 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
5062 appropriately.

5064
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00005065 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
5066 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
5067 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
5068 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
5069 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
5070 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
5071 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
5072 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
5073 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
5074 together.
5075 [Steve Henson]
5076
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00005077 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
5078 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
5079 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
5080 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
5081
5082 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
5083 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
5084 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
5085 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
5086 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
5087 the answer.
5088
5089 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
5090 been tested well enough.

5135 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
5136 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
5137 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
5138 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
5139 just makes things more complicated.)

5166 rather than always using the current time.
5167 [Steve Henson]
5168
5169 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
5170 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
5171 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
5172 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
5173 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
5174 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005175
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005176 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
5177 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005178
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005179 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005180
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005181 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
5182 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
5183 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
5184 the same hash value.
5185
5186 As a result various functions (which were all internal
5187 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
5188 structure. This will break anything that messed round
5189 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005190
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005191 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
5192 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005193
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005194 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
5195 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
5196 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
5197 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
5198 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
5199 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
5200 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005201
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005202 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
5203
5204 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
5205 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
5206 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
5207 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
5208 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
5209 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
5210 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
5211 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
5212
5213 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
5214 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5215
5216 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
5217 to customise the verify behaviour.

5222 [Steve Henson]
5223
5224 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
5225 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing

5227 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
5228 request is improperly encoded.

Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00005326 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5327 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5328 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5329 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5330 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5331 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5332 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5333 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
5334 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to

Ulf Möllerc0722722000-07-19 21:35:35 +00005394 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
5395 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
5396 Random Numbers.
5397 [Ulf Möller]
5398
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd13f0e2000-07-12 23:55:30 +00005399 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
5400 DSA key.
5401 [Steve Henson]
5402
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00005403 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
5404 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
5405 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
5406 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
5407 form signing output easier to verify.
5408 [Steve Henson]
5409
5410 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00005413 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
5414 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
5415 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
5416 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
5417 are needed because all other string types have virtually
5418 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
5419 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
5420 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
5421 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
5422 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
5423 [Steve Henson]
5424
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00005425 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
5426
5427 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
5428 the syntax given in objects.README.
5429 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
5430 obj_mac.h.
5431 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
5432 obj_mac.h.
5433
5434 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
5435 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
5436 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
5437 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
5438 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
5439 consistent name changes.
5440 [Richard Levitte]
5441
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00005442 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
5443 [Bodo Moeller]
5444
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00005445 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00005446 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
5447 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
5448 environment variable, or the default random state file.

5450
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00005451 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
5452 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
5453 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
5454 of safestack.h .
5455 [Steve Henson]
5456
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00005457 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
5458 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
5459 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
5460 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
5461 [Steve Henson]
5462
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00005463 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
5464 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
5465 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
5466 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
5467 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
5468 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
5469 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
5470 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
5471 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00005472 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
5473 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00005474 [Steve Henson]
5475
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00005476 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
5477 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
5478 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
5479 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
5480 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
5481 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
5482 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
5483 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
5484 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
5485 algorithm to openssl-dev.
5486 [Steve Henson]
5487
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00005488 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
5489 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
5490 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
5491 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
5492
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00005493 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
5494 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
5495 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
5496 omit any duplicate addresses.
5497 [Steve Henson]
5498
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00005499 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
5500 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
5501 [Bodo Moeller]
5502
5503 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
5504 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
5505 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
5506 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
5507 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
5508 [Bodo Moeller]
5509
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00005510 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
5511 software:
5512 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
5513 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
5514 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
5515 Free => OPENSSL_free
5516 [Richard Levitte]
5517
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00005518 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
5519 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).

5524
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00005525 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
5526 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
5527 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
5528 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
5529 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
5530 approach.
5531 [Geoff Thorpe]
5532
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00005533 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
5534 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
5535 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
5536 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
5537 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
5538 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
5539 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
5540 [Geoff Thorpe]
5541
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00005542 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
5543 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
5544 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
5545 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
5546 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
5547 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
5548 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
5549 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
5550 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
5551 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
5552 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
5553 [Bodo Moeller]
5554
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00005555 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
5556 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
5557 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
5558 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
5559 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
5560
5561 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
5562 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
5563 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
5564 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
5565 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
5566
5567 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
5568 ciphers.
5569
5570 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00005571 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
5572 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
5573 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
5574
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00005575 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
5576
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00005577 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
5578 of macros.
5579
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00005580 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
5581 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
5582 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
5583 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00005584
5585 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
5586 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
5587 any installed hardware versions can.

5589
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00005590 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
5591 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
5592 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
5593 number.
5594 [Bodo Moeller]
5595
5596 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
5597 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
5598 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
5599 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).

5601
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4b41f42000-05-24 13:09:59 +00005602 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
5603 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
5604 [Steve Henson]
5605
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00005606 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
5607 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
5608 [Richard Levitte]
5609
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00005610 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
5611 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
5612 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
5613 features.

Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00005616 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.

Dr. Stephen Henson0cb957a2000-05-04 23:03:49 +00005619 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
5620 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
5621 but no ssl client purpose.
5622 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
5623
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00005624 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
5625 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
5626 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
5627 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
5628 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
5629 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
5630 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
5631 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
5632 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
5633 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
5634 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
5635 [Steve Henson]
5636
Bodo Möller316e6a62000-05-02 20:29:03 +00005637 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use

5641
Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00005642 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
5643 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
5644 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
5645 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).

5650
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00005651 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
5652 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
5653 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
5654 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
5655 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
5656 [Geoff Thorpe]
5657
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00005658 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
5659 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
5660 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
5661 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
5662 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
5663 [Geoff Thorpe]
5664
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00005665 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
5666 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
5667 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
5668 may not be NULL.

5670
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00005671 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
5672 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
5673 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
5674 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
5675 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
5676 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
5677 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
5678 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
5679 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
5680 or "the configuration storage API"...
5681
5682 The new configuration file reading functions are:
5683
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00005684 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,

Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00005689 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00005690
5691 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
5692 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
5693 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
5694 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
5695 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
5696 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
5697 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
5698
5699 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
5700 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
5701 [Richard Levitte]
5702
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00005703 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
5704 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
5705 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional

Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00005745 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
5746 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00005747 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00005748 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00005749 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
5750 Additional arguments are always ignored.
5751
5752 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
5753 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.

5761
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00005762 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
5763 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
5764 its own key.
5765 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
5766 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
5767 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
5768 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.

5770
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00005771 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
5772 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
5773 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
5774 does not suppress any output.
5775 [Richard Levitte]
5776
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00005777 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00005778 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
5779 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
5780 with all the associated security issues.
5781
5782 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
5783 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
5784 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
5785 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
5786 use the value in the default purpose.

5792
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00005793 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve

5859
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00005860 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
5861 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
5862 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
5863 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
5864 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.

5866
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00005867 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
5868 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
5869 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)

5871 [Steve Henson]
5872
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00005873 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
5874 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
5875 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
5876 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
5877 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
5878 counter, some don't.)
5879 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
5880 counters or duplicate objects.

Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00005897 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
5898 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
5899 [Steve Henson]
5900
5901 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
5902 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
5903 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
5904 cipher list.
5905 [Steve Henson]
5906
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00005907 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with

5910 [Steve Henson]
5911
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00005912 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
5913 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
5914 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
5915 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
5916 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
5917 should work without changes.

Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00005919

5921 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
5922 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
5923 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
5924 must be defined. E.g.,
5925 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES

5936 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
5937 [Steve Henson]
5938
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00005939 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
5940 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
5941 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
5942 request header lines. Some software needs this.
5943 [Steve Henson]
5944
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00005945 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
5946 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
5947 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
5948 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
5949 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
5950 is prompted for as usual.
5951 [Steve Henson]
5952
Ben Lauriebd03b992000-02-16 22:15:39 +00005953 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,

5955 autodetect the card and use it if present.
5956 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
5957
Dr. Stephen Hensonde469ef2000-02-15 14:19:44 +00005958 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
5959 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
5960 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
5961 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.

5993 [Steve Henson]
5994
Ulf Möller9b141122000-02-05 14:17:32 +00005995 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to

5997 [Ulf Möller]
5998
5999 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()

6001 [Ulf Möller]
6002
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00006003 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
6004 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
6005 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
6006 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
6007 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
6008 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
6009 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
6010 [Steve Henson]

6025 [Ulf Möller]
6026
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006027 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
6028 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
6029 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
6030 has already seen).
6031 [Bodo Moeller]
6032
6033 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
6034 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
6035
6036 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
6037 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
6038 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
6039 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
6040 generation becomes much faster.
6041
6042 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00006043 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
6044 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
6045 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
6046 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
6047 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
6048 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
6049 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
6050 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
6051 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).

6056 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
6057 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00006058 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the

Ulf Möllere93f9a32000-01-27 01:50:42 +00006072 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
6073 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
6074 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
6075 the comments.

6077
Bodo Möller2557eae2000-01-24 17:57:56 +00006078 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
6079 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
6080 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
6081 [Bodo Moeller]
6082
Bodo Möllera46faa22000-01-24 16:02:29 +00006083 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
6084 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
6085 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).

Dr. Stephen Hensondd9d2332000-01-23 23:41:49 +00006088 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
6089 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
6090 [Steve Henson]
6091
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00006092 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
6093 [Ulf Möller]
6094
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006095 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
6096 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
6097 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
6098 Rabin-Miller iterations.
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00006099 [Ulf Möller]
6100
6101 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
6102 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
6103 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
6104 [Ulf Möller]
6105
Dr. Stephen Henson09483c52000-01-22 13:58:29 +00006106 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
6107 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
6108 (instead of parameters) in future.
6109 [Steve Henson]
6110
Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00006111 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
6112 when a new cipher list is set.

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00006115 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
6116 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
6117 wrong.
6118
6119 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
6120 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
6121 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
6122
6123 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
6124 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
6125 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
6126 an error is flagged.
6127
6128 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
6129 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
6130 the readability was also increased :-)

Dr. Stephen Henson81004902000-01-21 02:42:14 +00006133 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
6134 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
6135 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
6136 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
6137 as the root CA.
6138 [Steve Henson]
6139
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00006140 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
6141 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
6142 [Steve Henson]
6143
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00006144 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
6145 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
6146 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
6147 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
6148 instead.
6149
6150 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
6151 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
6152 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
6153 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00006154 because they handle more complex structures.)

6156
Ulf Mölleraa82db42000-01-16 21:10:00 +00006157 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
6158 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
6159 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
6160 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
6161
Ulf Möllereb952082000-01-13 20:59:17 +00006162 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00006163 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
6164 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00006165 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00006166 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
6167 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
6168 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).

6170
Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00006171 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
6172 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006173 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00006174 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006175 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.

6177
Bodo Möller3cc6cde2000-01-11 08:09:27 +00006178 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
Bodo Möllerc51ae172000-01-11 01:07:26 +00006179 [Bodo Moeller]
6180
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00006181 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
6182 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00006183 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
6184 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
6185 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
6186 to use this.
6187
6188 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
6189 code.
6190 [Steve Henson]
6191
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00006192 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
6193 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
6194 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
6195 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
6196 [Steve Henson]
6197
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006198 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
6199 [Ulf Möller]
6200
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00006201 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
6202 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
6203 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
6204 international characters are used.
6205
6206 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
6207 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
6208 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
6209 in ASN1 order.
6210 [Steve Henson]
6211
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006212 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
6213 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
6214 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
6215 request.
6216
6217 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
6218 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
6219 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
6220 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006221 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006222 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
6223
6224 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
6225 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
6226 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006227 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006228
6229 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
6230 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
6231 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
6232 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
6233 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
6234 types at all.
6235 [Steve Henson]
6236
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00006237 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
6238 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
6239 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
6240 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
6241 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
6242
6243 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
6244 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
6245 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
6246 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.

6248
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00006249 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
6250 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006251 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00006252 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
6253 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
6254 SHA1.
6255 [Andy Polyakov]
6256
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00006257 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
6258 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
6259 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
6260 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
6261 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
6262 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
6263 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
6264 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
6265
6266 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
6267 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00006268 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00006269 [Steve Henson]
6270
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00006271 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
6272 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
6273 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
6274 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
6275 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
6276 support to pkcs8 application.
6277 [Steve Henson]
6278
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00006279 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
6280 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
6281 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
6282 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
6283 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
6284 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
6285 [Bodo Moeller]
6286
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00006287 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
6288 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
6289 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
6290 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
6291 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
6292 consistency.
6293 [Bodo Moeller]
6294
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00006295 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
6296 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
6297 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
6298 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
6299 example.
6300 [Steve Henson]
6301
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00006302 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
6303 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
6304 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
6305 and any application specific purposes.
6306
6307 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6308 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6309 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6310 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00006311 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00006312 if the certificate is self signed.
6313 [Steve Henson]
6314
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00006315 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6316 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6317 [Steve Henson]
6318
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00006319 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6320 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00006321 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00006322 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6323 [Steve Henson]
6324
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00006325 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6326 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6327 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6328 Update documentation.
6329 [Steve Henson]
6330
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00006331 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6332 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00006333 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00006334 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
6335 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
6336 [Steve Henson]
6337
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00006338 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
6339 for details.

6341
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00006342 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
6343 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
6344 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00006345 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
6346 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
6347 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00006348 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
6349 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
6350 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
6351 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00006352
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00006353 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
6354
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00006355 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6356 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6357 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
6358 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
6359 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00006360
6361 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
6362 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00006363 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
6364 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
6365 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
6366 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
6367 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
6368 request additional information:
6369 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
6370 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00006371
6372 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
6373 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
6374 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
6375 options.
6376
6377 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
6378 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
6379
6380 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
6381 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
6382 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
6383
6384 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.

Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00006387 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
6388 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
6389 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
6390 algorithm.

6392
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00006393 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
6394 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
6395 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
6396
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00006397 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
6398 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
6399 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
6400 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
6401 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
6402 included in OpenSSL.
6403 [Steve Henson]
6404
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00006405 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
6406 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
6407 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
6408 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
6409 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
6410 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
6411 [Bodo Moeller]
6412
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00006413 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
6414 PKCS12 structure.
6415 [Steve Henson]
6416
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00006417 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
6418 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
6419 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
6420 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
6421 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
6422 structure.
6423 [Steve Henson]
6424
6425 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
6426 need initialising.
6427 [Steve Henson]
6428
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00006429 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
6430 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
6431 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
6432 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
6433 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
6434 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
6435 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
6436 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
6437 be maintained manually.
6438
6439 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
6440 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
6441 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
6442 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
6443 work because people forget to call this function]
6444 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
6445 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
6446 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
6447 [Steve Henson]
6448
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00006449 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
6450 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
6451 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
6452 should be discouraged from doing it.
6453 [Ben Laurie]
6454
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00006455 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
6456 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
6457 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
6458 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
6459 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
6460 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
6461 [Steve Henson]
6462
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00006463 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
6464 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
6465 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00006466
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00006467 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00006468 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
6469 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00006470
6471 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
6472 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
6473 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
6474 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
6475 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
6476 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00006477
6478 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
6479 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
6480 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00006481
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00006482 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
6483 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
6484 and vice versa.
6485
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00006486 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
6487 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
6488 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
6489 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00006490 [Steve Henson]
6491
6492 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00006493 [Steve Henson]
6494
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00006495 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
6496 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
6497 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
6498 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
6499 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00006500 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00006501 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
6502 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
6503 keys so we should be OK.
6504
6505 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
6506 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
6507 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
6508 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
6509 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
6510 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00006511 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00006512
6513 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
6514 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
6515 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
6516
6517 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00006518 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
6519 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
6520 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
6521 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
6522 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
6523 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00006524 [Steve Henson]
6525
6526 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
6527 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
6528 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
6529 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
6530 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
6531 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
6532 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
6533 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
6534 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
6535 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
6536 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
6537 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
6538 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
6539 [Steve Henson]
6540
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00006541 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
6542 [Steve Henson]
6543
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00006544 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
6545 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
6546 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
6547 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
6548 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
6549 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
6550 single self signed certificate. This means that:
6551 openssl verify ss.pem
6552 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
6553 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
6554 is OK.
6555 [Steve Henson]
6556
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00006557 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
6558 (and add it to external session representation).
6559 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
6560 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
6561 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
6562 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
6563 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
6564 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
6565 security holes.

6567
Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00006568 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
6569 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
6570 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.

Dr. Stephen Hensonfd699ac1999-11-16 02:49:25 +00006573 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
6574 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
6575 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
6576 [Steve Henson]
6577
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00006578 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
6579 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
6580 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
6581 code.
6582 [Steve Henson]
6583
Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00006584 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
6585 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
Mark J. Coxb7cfcfb1999-11-15 16:31:31 +00006586 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
6587
Dr. Stephen Henson06556a11999-11-14 23:10:50 +00006588 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
6589 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
6590 certificate auxiliary information.
6591 [Steve Henson]
6592
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00006593 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
6594 the 'enc' command.
6595 [Steve Henson]
6596
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00006597 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
6598 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00006599 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
6600 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
6601 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
6602 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
6603 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00006604 [Richard Levitte]
6605
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00006606 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
Dr. Stephen Henson954ef7e1999-11-12 01:42:25 +00006607 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
6608 [Steve Henson]
6609
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00006610 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
6611 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
6612 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
6613 manpages and fix a few bugs.
6614 [Steve Henson]
6615
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00006616 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
6617 [Steve Henson]
6618
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00006619 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
6620 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
6621 [Steve Henson]
6622
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00006623 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
6624 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
6625 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
6626 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
6627 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00006628 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00006629 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
6630 using the new 'x509' options.
6631
6632 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
6633 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
6634 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
6635 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
6636 for all purposes.
6637 [Steve Henson]
6638
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00006639 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
6640 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
6641 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
6642 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
6643 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
Mark J. Coxce2c95b1999-11-03 14:10:10 +00006644 [Mark Cox]
6645
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00006646 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
6647 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
6648 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
6649 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
6650 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006651 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00006652 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
6653 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
6654 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
6655 the key length and effective key length are equal.
6656 [Steve Henson]
6657
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00006658 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
6659 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
6660 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
6661 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
6662 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
6663 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
6664 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
6665 [Steve Henson]
6666
6667 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
6668 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
6669 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
6670 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
6671 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
6672 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
6673 openssl.cnf for more info.
6674 [Steve Henson]
6675
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00006676 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00006677 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00006678 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
6679 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
6680 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
6681 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
6682 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
6683 md should be large enough anyway.
6684 [Bodo Moeller]
6685
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00006686 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
6687 for handling the random seed file.
6688
6689 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
6690 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00006691 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00006692 s_client,
6693 s_server,
6694 x509 (when signing).
6695 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
6696 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00006697 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00006698

Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00006700 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00006701 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs

6708
6709 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations

6711 [Bill Perry]
6712
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00006713 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
6714 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
6715 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
6716 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
6717 is suitable.
6718 [Steve Henson]
6719
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00006720 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
6721 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
6722 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
6723 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
6724 [Steve Henson]
6725
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00006726 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
6727 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
6728 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
6729 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
6730 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
6731 print out all the purposes.
6732 [Steve Henson]
6733
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00006734 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
6735 functions.
6736 [Steve Henson]
6737
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00006738 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
6739 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
6740 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
6741 single function call.
6742 [Steve Henson]
6743
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00006744 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
6745 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
6746 [Andy Polyakov]
6747
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00006748 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
6749 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
6750 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
6751 [Steve Henson]
6752
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00006753 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
6754 when producing the local key id.
6755 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6756
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00006757 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
6758 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
6759 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
6760 "server.pem".
6761 [Steve Henson]
6762
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00006763 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
6764 a public key to be input or output. For example:
6765 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
6766 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
6767 [Steve Henson]
6768
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00006769 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
6770 in the message. This was handled by allowing
6771 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
6772 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
6773
6774 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
6775 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
6776 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
6777 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6778
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00006779 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
6780 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
6781 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
6782 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
6783 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
6784 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
6785 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
6786 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
6787 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
6788 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
6789 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
6790 trivial: move one line.
6791 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
6792
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00006793 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
6794 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
6795 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
6796 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
6797 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
6798 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
6799 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
6800 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
6801 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
6802 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
6803 with an event loop for example.
6804 [Steve Henson]
6805
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00006806 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
6807 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
6808 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
6809 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
6810 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
6811 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
6812 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
6813 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
6814 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
6815 [Steve Henson]
6816
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00006817 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
6818 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
6819 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006820 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00006821 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
6822 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
6823 [Steve Henson]
6824
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00006825 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
6826 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
6827 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
6828 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
6829
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00006830 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
6831 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
6832 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
6833 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
6834 key generation.
6835 [Steve Henson]
6836
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00006837 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
Bodo Möller6f7af151999-09-10 14:03:21 +00006838 (still largely untested)
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00006839 [Bodo Moeller]
6840
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00006841 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
6842 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
6843 [Steve Henson]
6844
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00006845 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
6846 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
6847 [Steve Henson]
6848
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00006849 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
6850 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
6851 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
6852 [Bodo Moeller]
6853
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00006854 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
6855 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
6856 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
6857 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
6858 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
6859 [Steve Henson]
6860
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00006861 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
6862 [Andy Polyakov]
6863
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00006864 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
6865 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
6866 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
6867 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
6868 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
6869 in ca.
6870 [Steve Henson]
6871
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00006872 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
6873 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
6874 1.OU="Unit name 1"
6875 2.OU="Unit name 2"
6876 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
6877 [Steve Henson]
6878
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00006879 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
6880 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
6881 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
6882 are otherwise ignored at present.
6883 [Steve Henson]
6884
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00006885 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00006886 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00006887 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
6888 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
6889 copied until the next read.
6890 [Steve Henson]
6891
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00006892 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
6893 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
6894 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
6895 [Steve Henson]
6896
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00006897 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
6898 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
6899 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
6900 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
6901 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
6902 associated functions.
6903 [Steve Henson]
6904
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00006905 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
6906 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
6907 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
6908 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
6909 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
6910 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
6911 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
6912 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
6913 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006914 memory BIOs.
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00006915 [Steve Henson]
6916
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00006917 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
6918 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
6919 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
6920 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
6921 [Bodo Moeller]
6922
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00006923 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
6924 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
6925 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
6926 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
6927 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
6928 functionality.
6929 [Steve Henson]
6930
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00006931 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
6932 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
6933 under Win32.
6934 [Steve Henson]
6935
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00006936 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00006937 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
6938 extensions to be obtained and added.

6940
Bodo Möller1b1a6e71999-08-09 13:01:48 +00006941 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as

6943 [Bodo Moeller]
6944
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00006945 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]

6952
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00006953 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
6954 program.
6955 [Steve Henson]
6956
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00006957 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
6958 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
6959 DH parameters contain its length).
6960
6961 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
6962 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
6963 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
6964 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
6965 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
6966 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
6967 utter importance to use
6968 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
6969 or
6970 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
6971 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
6972 attacks may become possible!
6973 [Bodo Moeller]
6974
6975 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
6976 [Bodo Moeller]
6977
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00006978 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
6979 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
6980 [Steve Henson]
6981
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00006982 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
6983 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
6984 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
6985 or long name.
6986 [Steve Henson]
6987
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00006988 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
6989 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
6990 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
6991 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00006992 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
6993 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
6994 private key operations.

6996

6999
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00007000 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
7001 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
7002 to
7003 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
7004 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
7005 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
7006 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
7007 the password callback is called.

Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00007009
7010 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
7011
7012 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
7013 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
7014 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
7015 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
7016 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
7017 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
7018 this will work.

Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00007020 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
7021 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
7022 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00007023 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an

7033 [Ulf Möller]
7034
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00007035 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
7036 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
7037 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all

Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00007047 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check

Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00007051 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
7052 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
7053 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
7054 comparison" warnings.
7055 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.

Dr. Stephen Hensonf5139391999-07-11 12:40:46 +00007058 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when

7065
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00007066 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
7067 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
7068
7069 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
7070 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
7071 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
7072
7073 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
7074 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
7075 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
7076 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
7077 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
7078 this bug.

Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00007081 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
7082 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00007083 Applications can use
7084 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
7085 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
7086 "off" is now the default.
7087 The library internally uses
7088 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
7089 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
7090 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
7091
7092 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
7093 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00007094
7095 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
7096 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
7097 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00007098
7099 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
7100
7101 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
7102 extensions.

7104
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00007105 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
7106 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
7107 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00007108 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00007109
7110 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
7111 a single record has been written.
7112 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
7113 retries use the same buffer location.

7123
Dr. Stephen Hensonce8b2571999-06-29 22:22:42 +00007124 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
7125 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
7126 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
7127 [Steve Henson]
7128
Bodo Möller9c729e01999-06-25 14:04:10 +00007129 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.

7131 test programs.

7133
Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00007134 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
7135 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
7136 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
7137 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
7138 point to the end.

7141
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00007142 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
7143 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
7144 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
7145 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
7146 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
7147 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).

7149
Dr. Stephen Hensondbd665c1999-06-22 01:38:31 +00007150 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the

Bodo Möllerf76a8081999-06-21 11:32:25 +00007155 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the

Dr. Stephen Henson8623f691999-06-20 17:36:11 +00007161 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config

7163 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
7164 [Steve Henson]
7165
Bodo Möllera1113061999-06-18 16:14:18 +00007166 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
7167 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
7168 must use this, not the compile-time macro.

7177 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
7178 [Bodo Moeller]

7190 [Steve Henson]
7191
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7d135b1999-06-10 17:32:52 +00007192 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
7193 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
7194 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
7195 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.

7200 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7201
Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00007202 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
7203 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
7204 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
7205 unusual formatting.
7206 [Steve Henson]
7207
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00007208 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
7209 to use the new extension code.
7210 [Steve Henson]
7211
7212 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
7213 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra

7239 [Ulf Möller]
7240
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00007241 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
7242 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
7243 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
7244 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
7245 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
7246 of v2.0.

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00007253 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
7254 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
7255 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
7256 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
7257 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
7258 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
7259 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
7260 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
7261 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
7262 [Steve Henson]
7263
Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00007264 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00007265 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
7266 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
7267 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
7268 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
7269 value doesn't matter.

7336
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00007337 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
7338 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
7339 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
7340 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
7341 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
7342 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
7343 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
7344 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
7345 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
7346 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.

7351 [Steve Henson]
7352
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00007353 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00007354 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00007355 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
7356 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like

7368 [Ben Laurie]
7369
Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00007370 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
7371 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
7372 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
7373 key elements as negative integers.

7380 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
7381
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5eac851999-05-12 01:56:27 +00007382 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
7383 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
7384 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
7385 [Steve Henson]
7386
Bodo Möllerb31b04d1999-05-11 07:43:16 +00007387 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
7388 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
7389 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
7390 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
7391 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
7392 [Bodo Moeller]
7393
Ulf Möllerd5a2ea41999-05-10 23:59:28 +00007394 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
7395 [Ulf Möller]
7396
Ralf S. Engelschall397f7031999-05-10 08:33:56 +00007397 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
7398 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
7399 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
7400 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7401
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00007402 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
7403 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
7404 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
7405
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00007406 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
7407 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
7408 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
7409 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
7410 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
7411 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
7412 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
7413 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
7414 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
7415
7416 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
7417 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
7418 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
7419 does not influence s as it used to.
7420
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00007421 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00007422 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
7423 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
7424 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
7425 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
7426 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

7428
Dr. Stephen Hensonc8b41851999-05-09 16:39:11 +00007429 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
7430 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
7431 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
7432 key type.
7433 [Steve Henson]
7434
Dr. Stephen Hensone40b7ab1999-05-08 12:59:50 +00007435 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
7436 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
7437 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
7438 and 'x509').
7439 [Steve Henson]
7440
7441 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
7442 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
7443 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
7444 extension option.
7445 [Steve Henson]
7446
Ben Laurie5b640021999-05-07 15:42:23 +00007447 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
7448 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
7449 [Ben Laurie]
7450
Ulf Möller31a674d1999-05-06 00:46:34 +00007451 *) Support Borland C++ builder.

Ralf S. Engelschalldee75ec1999-05-04 10:15:02 +00007469 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
7470 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7471
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00007472 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
7473 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
7474 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
7475 DER-encoded.)
7476 [Bodo Moeller]
7477
Bodo Möller7f897141999-05-01 03:20:40 +00007478 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
7479 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
7480 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
7481 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
7482 now it really counts the depth.
7483 [Bodo Moeller]
7484
Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00007485 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
7486 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
7487 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
7488 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
7489 didn't match the private key).
7490
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00007491 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
Bodo Möllerdd1462f1999-05-01 00:07:42 +00007492 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
7493 connection using the SSL_CTX).

7498
Bodo Möllere5f30451999-04-29 21:52:08 +00007499 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by

7501 [Bodo Moeller]
7502
Bodo Möller87bc2c01999-04-29 16:10:41 +00007503 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
7504 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
7505 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
7506 [Bodo Moeller]
7507
Bodo Möller6e6acfd1999-04-28 22:33:54 +00007508 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
7509 [Bodo Moeller]
7510
Bodo Möllerddeee821999-04-28 22:06:19 +00007511 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to

7521
Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00007522 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for

Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00007526 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
7527 [Ulf Möller]
7528
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00007529 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI

7531 [Steve Henson]

Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00007536 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
7537 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
7538 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
7539 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
7540 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
7541 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
7542 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
7543 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00007544 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
7545 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00007635 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code

Bodo Möller6d02d8e1999-03-31 12:06:30 +00007688 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
7689 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
7690 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
7691 [Bodo Moeller]
7692
7693 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
7694 [Bodo Moeller]
7695
Dr. Stephen Hensonee0508d1999-03-29 17:50:26 +00007696 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
7697 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
7698 [Steve Henson]
7699
Dr. Stephen Henson8d8c7261999-03-28 23:17:34 +00007700 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
7701 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
7702 to library startup routines.
7703 [Steve Henson]
7704
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcefcb1999-03-28 17:46:10 +00007705 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
7706 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
7707 codes along the way.
7708 [Steve Henson]
7709
Dr. Stephen Henson4b518c21999-03-28 01:00:56 +00007710 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
7711 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcefcb1999-03-28 17:46:10 +00007712 objects to objects.h
Dr. Stephen Henson4b518c21999-03-28 01:00:56 +00007713 [Steve Henson]
7714
Dr. Stephen Henson785cdf21999-03-27 14:06:25 +00007715 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
7716 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
7717 [Steve Henson]
7718
Ben Laurieba423ad1999-03-27 13:03:37 +00007719 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
7720 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
7721
Ben Laurie67da3df1999-03-27 12:53:21 +00007722 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
7723 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
7724 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
7725
Ralf S. Engelschall0e9fc711999-03-25 07:49:33 +00007726 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
7727 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
7728 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7729
Ralf S. Engelschall1b276f31999-03-24 10:24:35 +00007730 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
7731 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
7732 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
7733
Bodo Möller1b24cca1999-05-13 21:17:03 +00007734
7735 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00007736
Ben Laurieb4cadc61999-03-22 12:22:14 +00007737 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
7738 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
7739 [Ben Laurie]
7740
7741 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
7742 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
7743 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
7744 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
7745 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
7746
Ralf S. Engelschallafb23061999-03-20 13:04:12 +00007747 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
7748 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
7749 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
7750 document.
7751 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7752
Dr. Stephen Henson199d59e1999-03-14 01:16:45 +00007753 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
7754 Malloc, Free.
7755 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
7756
Ben Laurieb4899bb1999-03-12 20:41:09 +00007757 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
7758 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7759
Ben Laurie29c0fcc1999-03-12 20:26:27 +00007760 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
7761 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
7762 if someone would make that last step automatic.
7763 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
7764
Ben Lauriecadf1261999-03-12 19:58:43 +00007765 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
7766 [Ben Laurie]
7767
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00007768 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
7769 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
7770 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
7771 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
7772 [Steve Henson]
7773
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00007774 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
7775 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
7776 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
7777 [Steve Henson]
7778
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00007779 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
7780 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
7781 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
7782 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
7783 installed as `perl').
7784 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7785
Ralf S. Engelschall637691e1999-03-10 19:51:43 +00007786 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
7787 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7788
Dr. Stephen Henson83ec54b1999-03-10 01:37:33 +00007789 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
7790 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
7791 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
Dr. Stephen Henson38138021999-03-10 18:30:48 +00007792 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
7793 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
7794 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson83ec54b1999-03-10 01:37:33 +00007795
Ben Laurieb241fef1999-03-09 11:37:23 +00007796 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
7797 [Ben Laurie]
7798
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00007799 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
7800 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
7801 is horrible: I feel ill....
7802 [Steve Henson]
7803
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00007804 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
7805 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
7806 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
7807 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00007808 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00007809
Ralf S. Engelschalld10f0521999-03-08 12:35:01 +00007810 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
7811 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7812
Ralf S. Engelschallc0e538e1999-03-08 11:41:26 +00007813 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
7814 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
7815 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
7816 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7817
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00007818 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
7819 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
7820 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
7821 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
7822 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
7823 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
7824 openssl_bio.xs.
7825 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7826
Ben Laurie26a08461999-03-07 15:08:38 +00007827 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
7828 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
7829
Ben Laurie7d3ce7b1999-03-07 14:17:32 +00007830 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
7831 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
7832
Ben Laurieefadf601999-03-07 15:21:08 +00007833 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
Ben Lauriecba50681999-03-07 14:05:36 +00007834 [Ben Laurie]
7835
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00007836 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
7837 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
7838 in CRLs.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00007839 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00007840
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00007841 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
7842 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
7843 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
7844 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
7845 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
7846 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
7847 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
7848 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
7849 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
7850 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
7851 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7852
Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +00007853 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
7854 [Ben Laurie]
7855
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +00007856 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
7857 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
7858 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
7859 for linking it into DSOs.
7860 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7861
Ben Laurief415fa31999-03-06 14:09:36 +00007862 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
7863 Fixed.
7864 [Ben Laurie]
7865
Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +00007866 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
7867 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
7868 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
7869 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
7870 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
7871 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7872
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00007873 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
7874 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
7875 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
7876 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
7877 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
7878 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
7879 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7880
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00007881 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
7882 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
7883 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
7884 encryption.
7885 [Ben Laurie]
7886
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00007887 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
7888 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
7889 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
7890 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
7891 [Steve Henson]
7892
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00007893 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
7894 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
7895 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
7896 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
7897 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
7898 field as blank.
Dr. Stephen Henson9985bed1999-03-04 23:29:51 +00007899 [Steve Henson]
7900
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +00007901 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
7902 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
7903 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
7904 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
7905 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7906
Ralf S. Engelschalla06c6021999-03-04 07:54:01 +00007907 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
7908 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
7909 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
7910
Ralf S. Engelschall8d697db1999-03-04 07:47:27 +00007911 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
7912 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
7913
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +00007914 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
7915 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
7916 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
7917 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
7918 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
7919 [Steve Henson]
7920
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00007921 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
7922 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
7923 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
7924 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
7925 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00007926 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
7927 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
7928 [Ben Laurie]
7929
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00007930 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
7931 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
7932 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
7933 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
7934 [Ben Laurie]
Ralf S. Engelschall74d7abc1999-02-27 12:17:40 +00007935
7936 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
7937 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
Ralf S. Engelschall0172f981999-01-30 11:36:05 +00007938
Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00007939 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
7940 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
7941 [Steve Henson]
7942
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00007943 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
7944 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
7945 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
7946 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
7947 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
7948 (e.g. s_server).
7949 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
7950 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
7951 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
7952 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
7953 no way to reconfigure them.
7954 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
7955 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
7956 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
7957 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
7958 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
7959 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7960
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00007961 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
7962 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
7963 recognized by the users.
7964 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7965
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00007966 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
7967 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
7968 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
7969 already masked variable.

7971
Ralf S. Engelschalldef9f431999-02-25 10:54:27 +00007972 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c

7974
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +00007975 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
7976 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
7977 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

7979
Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +00007980 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
7981 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
7982 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7983
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00007984 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
7985 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
7986 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
7987 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
7988 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
7989 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
7990 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
7991 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
7992 now, too.
7993 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7994
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00007995 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested

7998
Dr. Stephen Hensona43aa731999-02-23 00:07:46 +00007999 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs

8002 [Steve Henson]
8003
Ben Laurie0849d131999-02-22 21:21:08 +00008004 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).

8006
Ben Laurie06ab81f1999-02-21 20:03:24 +00008007 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
8008 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
8009 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
8010 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
8011 [Ben Laurie]
8012
Dr. Stephen Hensondeff75b1999-02-21 17:41:08 +00008013 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
8014 [Steve Henson]
8015
Dr. Stephen Henson0c8a1281999-02-21 17:39:07 +00008016 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
8017 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8018
Ben Laurie4004dbb1999-02-20 11:50:07 +00008019 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
8020 [Ben Laurie]
8021
Dr. Stephen Henson0ca5f8b1999-02-19 01:29:29 +00008022 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
8023 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
8024 [Steve Henson]
8025
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00008026 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
8027 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
8028 [Steve Henson]
8029
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00008030 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
8031 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
8032 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
8033 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
8034 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
8035 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.

8040 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8041
8042 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
8043 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
8044 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
8045 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00

8047
Dr. Stephen Hensona8236c81999-02-15 21:05:21 +00008048 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
8049 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00008050 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c

Dr. Stephen Henson388ff0b1999-02-14 16:48:22 +00008053 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
8054 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
8055 an example.

8059 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
8060 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8061
Dr. Stephen Henson5c008791999-02-14 00:40:13 +00008062 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
8063 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
8064 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
8065 build instructions.
8066 [Steve Henson]
8067
Dr. Stephen Henson9becf661999-02-13 23:13:32 +00008068 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
8069 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
8070 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
8071 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
8072 [Steve Henson]
8073
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +00008074 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
8075 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
8076 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
8077 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
8078 [Ben Laurie]
8079
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +00008080 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
8081 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
8082 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
8083 so it wasn't spotted.
8084 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
8085
Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +00008086 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
8087 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
8088 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
8089 vectors if you have them.
8090 [Ben Laurie]
8091
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00008092 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
Ben Laurie436d3181999-02-13 12:39:50 +00008093 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
8094 [Ben Laurie]
8095
Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00008096 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
8097 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
8098 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
8099 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
8100 If you do a:
8101 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
8102 it will update them.

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00008105 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
8106 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
8107 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
8108 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
8109 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
8110 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
8111 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
8112 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8113
Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00008114 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
8115 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
8116 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
8117 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
8118 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
8119 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
8120 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
8121 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
8122 the crypto/md/ stuff).
8123 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8124
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00008125 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
8126 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
8127 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
8128 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
8129 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
8130 [Steve Henson]
8131
Dr. Stephen Hensonbceacf91999-02-09 01:29:37 +00008132 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
8133 INTEGER code.
8134 [Steve Henson]
8135
Mark J. Cox351d8991999-01-31 12:14:39 +00008136 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.

8138
Ralf S. Engelschallb621d771999-01-31 11:10:10 +00008139 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.

8141
Ben Lauriea96e7811999-01-30 17:53:00 +00008142 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
8143 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
8144 [Ben Laurie]
8145
Ralf S. Engelschalle04a6c21999-01-30 11:50:48 +00008146 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.

8157 [Steve Henson]
8158
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00008159 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION

8172
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +00008173 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify

8175 [Steve Henson]
8176
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00008177 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
8178 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
8179 CA extensions.
8180 [Steve Henson]
8181
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00008182 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the

8187 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
8188 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
8189 [Steve Henson]
8190
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00008191 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
8192 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
8193 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
8194 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
8195 properly to be processed.
8196 [Steve Henson]
8197
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +00008198 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another

8205
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00008206 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
8207 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
8208 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
8209 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
8210 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
8211 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
8212 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
8213 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
8214 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00008217 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
8218 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
8219 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
8220 to regenerate it if needed.

8226
Dr. Stephen Hensonfdd3b641999-01-17 15:10:33 +00008227 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
8228 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
8229 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
8230 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
8231 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.

8254
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00008255 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
8256 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
8257 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
8258 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
8259 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the

8321 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
8322 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
8323
Ralf S. Engelschall06d5b161999-01-02 12:59:33 +00008324 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
8325 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
8326 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
8327 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
Ben Lauriecdbb8c21999-01-02 19:04:27 +00008328 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
Ralf S. Engelschall06d5b161999-01-02 12:59:33 +00008329
Dr. Stephen Hensonc35f5491999-01-02 01:53:06 +00008330 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
8331 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
8332 [Steve Henson]
8333
Dr. Stephen Hensonebc828c1999-01-01 18:43:44 +00008334 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
8335 [Steve Henson]
8336
Paul C. Sutton79e259e1999-01-01 14:04:07 +00008337 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
8338 [Paul Sutton]
8339
Paul C. Sutton56ee3111999-01-01 12:51:11 +00008340 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
8341 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
8342
Ben Laurie6063b271998-12-31 17:11:46 +00008343 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
8344 [Ben Laurie]
8345
8346 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
8347 [Ben Laurie]
8348
8349 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
8350 [Ben Laurie]
8351
stephen792a9001998-12-31 01:35:07 +00008352 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
8353 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
8354 other error libraries.
8355 [Steve Henson]
8356
8357 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
8358 [Steve Henson]
8359
8360 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
8361 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
8362 be read in.
8363 [Steve Henson]
8364
Ralf S. Engelschallce72df11998-12-30 23:07:32 +00008365 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
8366 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
8367 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
8368 the new set of documenation files.
8369 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8370
Ben Laurie4098e891998-12-29 21:43:55 +00008371 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
8372 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
8373 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
8374 number of arguments.
8375 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
8376
8377 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
8378 [Ben Laurie]
8379
Ben Laurie03f8b041998-12-29 17:22:31 +00008380 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
8381 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.

8385 [Ben Laurie]
8386
Ben Laurie1641cb61998-12-28 17:08:48 +00008387 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
8388 nextstep
8389 ncr-scde
8390 unixware-2.0
8391 unixware-2.0-pentium
8392 sco5-cc.

Ben Laurie8d7ed6f1998-12-28 21:58:19 +00008395 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
8396 before they are needed.
8397 [Ben Laurie]
8398
8399 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).

8430 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
8431 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
8432 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8433
8434 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
8435 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
