Andy Polyakov0e1f3902012-08-29 14:14:05 +00005 Changes between 1.0.x and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
Ben Lauriefefc1112012-12-11 16:05:14 +00006
Rob Stradling785da0e2013-09-12 22:12:21 +01007 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
8 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
9 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
10 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
11 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
12 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.

Dr. Stephen Henson5e3ff622013-03-22 17:12:33 +000015 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
16
17 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
18 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7d1c2013-09-08 15:07:44 +010019
Dr. Stephen Henson5e3ff622013-03-22 17:12:33 +000020 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x10 for the test
21 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x10
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7d1c2013-09-08 15:07:44 +010022
Dr. Stephen Henson5e3ff622013-03-22 17:12:33 +000023 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
24 effect.
25
26 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7d1c2013-09-08 15:07:44 +010027
28 NOTE: unfortunately the test server value (0x10) clashes with the draft
29 ALPN extension. Until this is resolved the only way to check against the
30 test server is to temporarily change the ALPN extension value (ugh!).
31
Dr. Stephen Henson5e3ff622013-03-22 17:12:33 +000032 [Steve Henson]
33
Scott Deboy36086182013-06-18 14:34:38 -070034 *) Add callbacks supporting generation and retrieval of supplemental
35 data entries.
36 [Scott Deboy <sdeboy@apache.org>, Trevor Perrin and Ben Laurie]
37
Dr. Stephen Henson97cf1f62013-07-17 14:05:19 +010038 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
39 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
40 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
41 algorithms and include tests cases.
42 [Steve Henson]
43
Dr. Stephen Henson5c84d2f2013-06-21 23:35:02 +010044 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
45 enveloped data.
46 [Steve Henson]
47
Dr. Stephen Henson271fef02013-05-21 23:55:50 +010048 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
49 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
50 [Steve Henson]
51
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6913ee2013-04-06 15:50:12 +010052 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
53 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
54 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
55 [Steve Henson]
56
Ben Lauriefefc1112012-12-11 16:05:14 +000057 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
58 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
59
Dr. Stephen Henson1c455bc2012-11-19 15:12:07 +000060 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
61 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
Dr. Stephen Hensona98b8ce2011-11-06 12:53:13 +000064 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
65 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
66 failures.
67 [Steve Henson]
68
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4324e52011-11-05 01:34:36 +000069 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
70 sign or verify all in one operation.
71 [Steve Henson]
72
Dr. Stephen Henson3ec9dce2011-11-02 00:57:22 +000073 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
74 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
75 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4324e52011-11-05 01:34:36 +000076 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson3ec9dce2011-11-02 00:57:22 +000077
Dr. Stephen Henson5e4eb992011-10-19 22:34:53 +000078 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
79 [Steve Henson]
80
Dr. Stephen Henson2bfeb7d2011-09-29 23:08:23 +000081 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
82 [Steve Henson]
83
Dr. Stephen Henson4420b3b2011-09-21 17:04:56 +000084 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
Dr. Stephen Hensoncb718702011-09-22 14:01:25 +000085 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
86 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
Dr. Stephen Henson4420b3b2011-09-21 17:04:56 +000087 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
88 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
89 [Steve Henson]
90
Dr. Stephen Henson15094852011-09-14 13:25:48 +000091 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
92 based on NID.
93 [Steve Henson]
94
Dr. Stephen Hensona11f06b2011-09-12 18:47:39 +000095 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
96 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
97 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
98 [Steve Henson]
99
Dr. Stephen Henson7fdcb452011-09-09 17:16:43 +0000100 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
101 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
102 [Steve Henson]
103
Dr. Stephen Hensonf55f5f72011-08-26 14:51:49 +0000104 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
105 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
106
Dr. Stephen Henson7fdcb452011-09-09 17:16:43 +0000107 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
108 POST to handle HMAC cases.
Dr. Stephen Henson20f12e62011-08-08 22:07:38 +0000109 [Steve Henson]
110
Dr. Stephen Henson01a9a752011-07-04 23:38:16 +0000111 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
Jeff Walton3d7bf772013-06-05 07:46:49 -0400112 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
Dr. Stephen Henson01a9a752011-07-04 23:38:16 +0000113 [Steve Henson]
114
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2fd5982011-05-11 14:43:38 +0000115 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
Jeff Walton3d7bf772013-06-05 07:46:49 -0400116 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2fd5982011-05-11 14:43:38 +0000117 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
118 [Steve Henson]
119
Dr. Stephen Hensone0d1a2f2011-04-23 20:05:19 +0000120 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
Jeff Walton3d7bf772013-06-05 07:46:49 -0400121 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
Dr. Stephen Hensone0d1a2f2011-04-23 20:05:19 +0000122 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
123 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
124 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
125 requested amount of entropy.
126 [Steve Henson]
127
Dr. Stephen Hensoncac4fb52011-04-23 19:55:55 +0000128 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
129 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
130 [Steve Henson]
131
Dr. Stephen Hensonb5dd1782011-04-18 22:48:40 +0000132 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
133 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
134 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
135 support.
Dr. Stephen Henson23916812011-04-18 14:25:11 +0000136 [Steve Henson]
137
Dr. Stephen Hensonac892b72011-04-14 11:15:10 +0000138 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
139 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
140 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
141 [Steve Henson]
142
Dr. Stephen Henson06b7e5a2011-04-15 02:49:30 +0000143 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
144 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
145 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
146 will never use XTS mode.
Dr. Stephen Henson32a2d8d2011-04-12 23:21:33 +0000147 [Steve Henson]
148
Dr. Stephen Henson05e24c82011-04-05 15:24:10 +0000149 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
150 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
151 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
152 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
153 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
Dr. Stephen Hensond7a3ce92011-04-06 23:41:19 +0000154 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
Dr. Stephen Henson05e24c82011-04-05 15:24:10 +0000155 [Steve Henson]
156
Dr. Stephen Hensoncab05952011-04-05 12:42:31 +0000157 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
158 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
159 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
160 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
161 [Steve Henson]
162
Dr. Stephen Henson96ec46f2011-03-17 16:55:24 +0000163 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
164 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
165 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
166 [Steve Henson]
167
Dr. Stephen Henson8857b382011-03-09 23:44:06 +0000168 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
169 [Steve Henson]
170
Dr. Stephen Henson11e80de2011-03-08 19:10:17 +0000171 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
172 [Steve Henson]
173
174 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
175 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
176 [Steve Henson]
177
Dr. Stephen Henson591cbfa2011-03-04 18:00:21 +0000178 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
179 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
180 [Steve Henson]
181
Dr. Stephen Hensoneead69f2011-02-21 14:07:15 +0000182 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
183 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
184 [Steve Henson]
185
Dr. Stephen Henson017bc572011-02-16 14:49:50 +0000186 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
187 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
Dr. Stephen Henson5d439d62011-02-17 19:03:52 +0000188 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
189 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
190 and rename any affected symbols.
Dr. Stephen Henson017bc572011-02-16 14:49:50 +0000191 [Steve Henson]
192
Dr. Stephen Henson25c65422011-02-15 16:03:47 +0000193 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
194 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
195 [Steve Henson]
196
Dr. Stephen Hensonfe26d062011-02-14 17:14:55 +0000197 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
198 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
Dr. Stephen Henson25c65422011-02-15 16:03:47 +0000199 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonfe26d062011-02-14 17:14:55 +0000200 [Steve Henson]
201
Dr. Stephen Hensonb3310162011-02-12 17:23:32 +0000202 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
203 [Steve Henson]
204
Dr. Stephen Henson30b56222011-02-11 19:02:34 +0000205 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
206 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
207 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
208 [Steve Henson]
209
Dr. Stephen Hensonb3d80222011-02-09 16:21:43 +0000210 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
211 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
212 [Steve Henson]
213
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdaa5412011-02-07 18:16:33 +0000214 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
215 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
216 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
217 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
218 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
219 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
220 set before the key.
221 [Steve Henson]
222
Dr. Stephen Henson3da0ca72011-02-07 14:36:08 +0000223 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
224 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
225 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
226 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
227 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
228 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
229 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
Dr. Stephen Hensond45087c2011-02-07 18:04:27 +0000230 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
Dr. Stephen Henson3da0ca72011-02-07 14:36:08 +0000231 [Steve Henson]
232
Dr. Stephen Henson2b3936e2010-12-25 20:45:59 +0000233 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
234 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
235 [Steve Henson]
236
Bodo Möller7c2d4fe2010-08-26 15:15:47 +0000237 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
238
239 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
240 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
241
242 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
243 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
244 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
245 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
246 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
247 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
248
249 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
250 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
251 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
252 security.
253 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
254
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000255 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
256 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
257 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
258 setting is used: whether to trust or reject.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
261 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
262 parameters by name.
263 [Steve Henson]
264
265 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
266 Add CMAC pkey methods.
267 [Steve Henson]
268
Bodo Möller8b37d332011-10-13 13:20:33 +0000269 *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000270 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
271 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
272 [Steve Henson]
273
274 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
275 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
276 multi-process servers.
277 [Steve Henson]
278
279 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
280 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
281 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
282 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
283 RAND_METHOD structure.
284 [Steve Henson]
285
286 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
287 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
288 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
289 whose return value is often ignored.
290 [Steve Henson]
Andy Polyakovf2ad3582012-04-25 22:06:32 +0000291
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200292 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
293
294 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
295 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
296 [Steve Henson]
297
298 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
299 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
300 summary of the connection parameters.
301 [Steve Henson]
302
303 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
304 of connection parameters.
305 [Steve Henson]
306
307 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
308 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
309
310 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
311 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
312 [Steve Henson]
313
314 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
315 [Steve Henson]
316
317 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
318 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
319 [Steve Henson]
320
321 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
322 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
323 [Steve Henson]
324
325 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
326 certificates.
327 [Steve Henson]
328
329 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
330 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
331 CRLs using the OCSP API.
332 [Steve Henson]
333
334 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
335 [Steve Henson]
336
337 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
338 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
339 [Steve Henson]
340
341 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
342 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
343 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
344 tracing.
345 [Steve Henson]
346
347 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
348 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
349 [Steve Henson]
350
351 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
352 OID NID.
353 [Steve Henson]
354
355 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
356 client to OpenSSL.
357 [Steve Henson]
358
359 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
360 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
361 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
362 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
363 [Steve Henson]
364
365 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
366 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
367 [Steve Henson]
368
369 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
370 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
371 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
372 comparison.
373 [Steve Henson]
374
375 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
376 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
377 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
378 use the certificate.
379 [Steve Henson]
380
381 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
382 [Steve Henson]
383
384 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
385 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
386 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
387 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
388 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
389 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
390 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
391
392 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
393 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
394
395 [Steve Henson]
396
397 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
398 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
399 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
400 [Steve Henson]
401
402 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
403 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
404 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
405 supported signature algorithms.
406 [Steve Henson]
407
408 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
409 [Steve Henson]
410
411 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
412 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
413 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
414 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
415 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
416 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
417 certificate and specify the whole chain.
418 [Steve Henson]
419
420 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
421 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
422 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
423 to have similar checks in it.
424
425 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
426 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
427 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
428 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
429 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
430 [Steve Henson]
431
432 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
433 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
434 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
435 shared signature algorithms.
436 [Steve Henson]
437
438 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
439 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
440 to support them.
441 [Steve Henson]
442
443 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
444 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
445 it couldn't be removed.
446 [Steve Henson]
447
448 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
449 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
450 [Steve Henson]
451
452 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
453 functions. Add manual page.
454 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
455
456 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
457 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
458 a certificate.
459 [Steve Henson]
460
461 *) Fix OCSP checking.
462 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
463
464 *) Backport support for partial chain verification: if an intermediate
465 certificate is explicitly trusted (using -addtrust option to x509
466 utility for example) the verification is sucessful even if the chain
467 is not complete.
468 The OCSP checking fix depends on this backport.
469 [Steve Henson and Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
470
471 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
472 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
473 [Steve Henson]

481
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200482 *) RFC 5878 (TLS Authorization Extensions) support.
Andy Polyakov0e1f3902012-08-29 14:14:05 +0000483 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
484
485 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
486 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
487 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
488 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200489 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
Andy Polyakov0e1f3902012-08-29 14:14:05 +0000490 [Steve Henson]
491
492 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
493 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
494 the new parameter format automatically.
495 [Steve Henson]
496
497 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
498 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
499 [Steve Henson]
500
501 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
502 [Steve Henson]
503
504 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
505 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
506 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
507 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
508 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
509 [Steve Henson]
510
511 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
512 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
513 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
514 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
515 to set list of supported curves.
516 [Steve Henson]
517
518 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
519 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
520 to print out received values.
521 [Steve Henson]
522
523 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
524 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
525 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
526 [Steve Henson]
527
528 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
529 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
530 [Steve Henson]
531
532 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
533 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
534 [Steve Henson]
535
536 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
537 certificates.
538 [Steve Henson]

Andy Polyakov396f8b72012-04-26 07:20:06 +0000609 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
Dr. Stephen Henson43d5b4f2012-04-25 23:04:42 +0000610 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
611 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200612 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
Andy Polyakov396f8b72012-04-26 07:20:06 +0000613 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
Dr. Stephen Henson43d5b4f2012-04-25 23:04:42 +0000614 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
615 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
Andy Polyakov396f8b72012-04-26 07:20:06 +0000616 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
617 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
618 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
Dr. Stephen Henson43d5b4f2012-04-25 23:04:42 +0000619 [Steve Henson]
620
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200621 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
Andy Polyakovf2ad3582012-04-25 22:06:32 +0000622 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
623 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
624 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
625 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
Andy Polyakova2b21192012-04-26 07:33:26 +0000626 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to

Dr. Stephen Henson800e1cd2012-04-17 15:12:09 +0000644 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200645 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
646
Dr. Stephen Henson800e1cd2012-04-17 15:12:09 +0000647 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
648 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
649 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200650 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
Dr. Stephen Henson800e1cd2012-04-17 15:12:09 +0000651 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
652 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
653 Most broken servers should now work.
654 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable

Dr. Stephen Henson83cb7c42012-02-15 14:04:00 +0000667 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
668 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
669 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
670 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
671 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
672 [Steve Henson]
673
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4e11692012-02-09 15:42:10 +0000674 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
675 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200676 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4e11692012-02-09 15:42:10 +0000677 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
678 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.

745
Dr. Stephen Hensonf26cf992010-03-11 14:19:46 +0000746 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
Dr. Stephen Henson17c63d12010-03-11 14:06:46 +0000747 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
748 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
749 [Steve Henson]
750
Dr. Stephen Henson85522a02010-03-11 13:32:38 +0000751 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
752 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
753 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
754 the appropriate parameters.
755 [Steve Henson]
756
Dr. Stephen Henson31904ec2010-03-08 18:10:35 +0000757 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
758 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
759 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
760 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
761 against a number of sample certificates.
762 [Steve Henson]
763
764 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.

Dr. Stephen Hensonff04bbe2010-03-06 19:55:25 +0000767 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
768 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
769
770 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
771 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
772 parameters r, s.

774
Dr. Stephen Hensonccbb9ba2011-10-09 23:11:55 +0000775 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
776 RFC3211.

778
Dr. Stephen Henson3d63b392009-11-25 22:01:06 +0000779 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
780 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
781 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
782 password based CMS).

784
Bodo Möllerc519e892011-09-05 13:36:23 +0000785 *) Session-handling fixes:
786 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
787 but also support Session Tickets.
788 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
789 presented a ticket with an expired session.
790 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
791 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
792 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.

800 This work was sponsored by Intel.
801 [Andy Polyakov]
802
Bodo Mölleracb4ab32011-09-05 09:30:50 +0000803 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
804 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
805 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200806 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
Bodo Mölleracb4ab32011-09-05 09:30:50 +0000807 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
808 [Steve Henson]
809
810 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
811 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
812 [Steve Henson]
813
814 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
815 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
816 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
817 [Steve Henson]
818
819 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200820 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
821 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
822 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.

824
Bodo Möllere66cb362011-06-15 14:49:17 +0000825 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
826 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
827 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
828 [Steve Henson]
829
Bodo Möller8e855452012-01-05 13:48:55 +0000830 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
831 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
Bodo Möllere66cb362011-06-15 14:49:17 +0000832
833 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
834 [Steve Henson]
835
836 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
837 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
838 [Steve Henson]
839
840 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
841 [Steve Henson]
842
843 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
844 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
845 [Steve Henson]
846
847 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
848 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
849 [Steve Henson]
850
851 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
852 [Steve Henson]
853
854 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
855 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
856 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
857 [Steve Henson]
858
859 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
860 [Steve Henson]
861
862 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
863 [Steve Henson]
864
865 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
866 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
867 [Steve Henson]
868
869 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
870 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
871 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
872 [Steve Henson]
873
874 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
875 [Steve Henson]
876
877 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
878 and enable MD5.
879 [Steve Henson]
880
881 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
882 FIPS modules versions.
883 [Steve Henson]
884
885 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
886 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
887 until after the certificate request message is received.
888 [Steve Henson]
889
890 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
891 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
892 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
893 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
894 [Steve Henson]
895
896 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
897 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
898 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
899 support yet and no support for client certificates.
900 [Steve Henson]
901
902 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
903 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
904 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
905 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
906 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
907 and version checking.
908 [Steve Henson]
909
910 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
911 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
912 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
913 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
914 [Steve Henson]
915
916 *) Add SRP support.

921
Dr. Stephen Henson44959ee2010-08-26 14:23:52 +0000922 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function

925
Dr. Stephen Henson7bbd0de2010-07-21 16:14:48 +0000926 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
927 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
928 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
929 [Steve Henson]
930
Dr. Stephen Hensonf96ccf32010-07-18 17:43:18 +0000931 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
932 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
933
934 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
935 a few changes are required:
936
937 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
938 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
939 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
940 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
941 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.

961 [Steve Henson]
962
963 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so

1002
1003 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1004 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1005 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1006 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1007 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1008 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1009 an MMA defence is not necessary.

1077 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING

1163
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f418b2009-12-31 14:13:30 +00001164 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1165 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1166 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1167 [Steve Henson]
1168
Dr. Stephen Henson3d63b392009-11-25 22:01:06 +00001169 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1170 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1171 [Steve Henson]
1172
1173 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1174 some responders need this.
1175 [Steve Henson]
1176
Dr. Stephen Hensona25f33d2009-09-13 11:29:29 +00001177 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1178 correctly.

1180
Dr. Stephen Henson17716682009-09-02 12:47:28 +00001181 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1182 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1183 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1184 [Steve Henson]

1188
Dr. Stephen Hensone30dd202009-06-25 11:29:30 +00001189 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1190 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1191 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1192 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1193 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1194 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1195 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1196 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1197 [Steve Henson]
1198
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00001199 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1200 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1201 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).

1206
Dr. Stephen Henson5f8f94a2009-04-28 22:10:54 +00001207 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1208 be used on C++.
1209 [Steve Henson]
1210
Dr. Stephen Hensone5fa8642009-04-15 15:27:03 +00001211 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1212 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1213 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1214 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1215 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1216 attempting to work them out.
1217 [Steve Henson]
1218
Dr. Stephen Henson22c98d42009-04-08 16:16:35 +00001219 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1220 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1221 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1222 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1223 [Steve Henson]
1224
Dr. Stephen Henson14023fe2009-04-03 11:45:19 +00001225 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1226 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1227 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1228 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1229 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1230 [Steve Henson]
1231
Dr. Stephen Hensonaaf35f12009-03-30 11:31:50 +00001232 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1233 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1234 you can do:
1235
1236 openssl sha256 foo
1237
1238 as well as:
1239
1240 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1241
1242 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.

1251
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2c99e22009-01-15 13:22:39 +00001252 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1253 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1254 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1255 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1256 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1257 [Steve Henson]
1258
Dr. Stephen Henson8125d9f2009-01-15 12:52:38 +00001259 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1260 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1261 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1262 [Steve Henson]
1263
Dr. Stephen Henson363bd0b2009-01-11 15:56:32 +00001264 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1265 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1266 [Steve Henson]
1267
Dr. Stephen Henson12bf56c2008-11-15 17:18:12 +00001268 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.

Dr. Stephen Henson87d3a0c2008-10-07 22:55:27 +00001284 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1285 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1286 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1287 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1288 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1289 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1290 [Steve Henson]
1291
Dr. Stephen Hensond43c4492008-09-01 15:15:16 +00001292 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate

1296 [Steve Henson]
1297
Dr. Stephen Henson4b968392008-08-29 11:37:21 +00001298 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1299 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1300 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1301 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1302 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1303 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1304 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1305 default.

1346 [Steve Henson]
1347
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +00001348 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1349 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1350 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1351 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1352 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1353 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1354 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1355 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1356
1357 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1358 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1359 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1360
Bodo Möller2ecd2ed2008-08-13 19:30:01 +00001361 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1362 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1363 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1364 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1365
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +00001366 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1367 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1368 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1369 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1370 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1371 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1372 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1373 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1374 of &errno.)

Dr. Stephen Henson5cbd2032008-07-30 15:49:12 +00001377 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a

1427
Bodo Möller761772d2007-09-21 06:54:24 +00001428 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1429 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1430 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1431 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1432 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1433 to use. For example, specify an option
1434
1435 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1436
1437 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1438 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1439 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1440 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1441 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1442 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1443
1444 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1445 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1446 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1447 return non-zero for success.
1448
1449 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1450 by using
1451
1452 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1453 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1454
1455 where
1456
1457 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1458 void *arg;
1459
1460 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1461 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1462 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1463 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1464 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1465 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1466 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1467 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1468 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1469
1470 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1471 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1472 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1473 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1474 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1475 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1476
1477 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1478 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1479 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1480 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1481 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1482 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.

1485
Dr. Stephen Henson81025662007-08-31 12:42:53 +00001486 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1487 MAC.

1490
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +00001491 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1492 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1493 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1494 supported.
1495
Dr. Stephen Hensonba0e8262007-08-23 22:59:09 +00001496 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1497 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1498 SSL_SESSION.
1499
1500 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1501 protection in servers so again support should be possible
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +00001502 with no application modification.
1503
1504 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1505 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1506
1507 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1508 or server extensions to be examined.

Dr. Stephen Henson3c07d3a2007-06-07 13:14:42 +00001513 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1514 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1515 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1516
Dr. Stephen Hensonb948e2c2007-06-04 17:04:40 +00001517 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1518 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1519 ciphersuite support.
1520 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1521
Dr. Stephen Henson9cfc8a92007-04-13 01:06:41 +00001522 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1523 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1524 to output in BER and PEM format.
1525 [Steve Henson]
1526
Dr. Stephen Henson47b71e62007-04-11 12:33:28 +00001527 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1528 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1529 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
Dr. Stephen Henson2022cfe2007-04-11 17:20:40 +00001530 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1531 -macopt options to dgst utility.

1533
Dr. Stephen Hensond952c792007-04-08 12:47:18 +00001534 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1535 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02001536 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
Dr. Stephen Hensond952c792007-04-08 12:47:18 +00001537 utility.
1538 [Steve Henson]
1539
Bodo Möllerfd5bc652007-02-20 16:36:58 +00001540 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1541 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1542 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1543 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1544 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1545 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1546 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1547 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1548 enabled again.
1549
1550 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1551 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1552 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1553 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1554
1555 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02001556 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
Bodo Möllerfd5bc652007-02-20 16:36:58 +00001557 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1558 the default order.
1559 [Bodo Moeller]
1560
Bodo Möller0a051232007-02-19 18:41:41 +00001561 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1562 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1563 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1564 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1565 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1566 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1567 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1568 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1569 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1570
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00001571 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1572 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1573 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1574 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1575 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1576 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1577 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1578 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1579 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1580 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1581 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1582 kinds of kludges.
1583
1584 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1585 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1586 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1587
1588 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1589 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1590 "CAMELLIA256".
1591 [Bodo Moeller]
1592
Nils Larsch357d5de2007-02-03 14:41:12 +00001593 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1594 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1595 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1596 [Nils Larsch]
1597
Dr. Stephen Henson11d8cdc2006-12-24 16:22:56 +00001598 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1599 it yet and it is largely untested.
1600 [Steve Henson]
1601
Nils Larsch06e2dd02006-12-20 08:58:54 +00001602 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1603 [Nils Larsch]
1604
Dr. Stephen Hensonde121162006-11-16 00:19:39 +00001605 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
Dr. Stephen Henson297e6f12007-06-04 17:53:04 +00001606 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
Dr. Stephen Hensona6fbcb42007-09-07 13:25:15 +00001607 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.

1609
Andy Polyakov31897722006-10-23 07:38:30 +00001610 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1611 [Andy Polyakov]
1612
Dr. Stephen Henson010fa0b2006-09-21 12:42:15 +00001613 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1614 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1615 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1616 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1617 [Steve Henson]
1618
Dr. Stephen Henson5d20c4f2006-09-17 17:16:28 +00001619 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1620 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1621 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1622 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1623 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1624 [Steve Henson]
1625
1626 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1627 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1628 [Cryptocom]
1629
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc7535b2006-09-14 17:25:02 +00001630 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1631 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1632 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1633 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1634 [Steve Henson]
1635
1636 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1637 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1638 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1639 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1640 [Steve Henson]
1641
Dr. Stephen Hensonf6e7d012006-07-25 17:39:38 +00001642 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1643 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1644 [Steve Henson]
1645
Dr. Stephen Hensonedc54022006-07-24 12:39:22 +00001646 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1647 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1648 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1649 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1650 [Steve Henson]
1651
Dr. Stephen Henson450ea832006-07-18 12:36:19 +00001652 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1653 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1654 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1655 [Steve Henson]
1656
Dr. Stephen Henson454dbbc2006-07-17 13:26:54 +00001657 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1658 utility.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc1c6c0b2006-07-17 12:18:28 +00001659 [Steve Henson]
1660
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7683e32006-07-10 18:36:55 +00001661 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1662 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1663 [Steve Henson]
1664
1665 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1666 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1667 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1668 if necessary.
1669 [Steve Henson]
1670
Dr. Stephen Henson0ee21662006-07-09 16:05:43 +00001671 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1672 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1673 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1674 [Steve Henson]
1675
Dr. Stephen Henson5ba4bf32006-07-09 00:53:45 +00001676 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1677 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1678 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1679 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1680 [Steve Henson]
1681
Bodo Möllerc4e78702006-06-18 22:00:57 +00001682 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1683 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1684 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1685 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1686 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1687 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1688 [Douglas Stebila]
1689
Bodo Möller89bbe142006-06-14 17:40:31 +00001690 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1691 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1692 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1693 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1694 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1695
1696 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1697 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1698 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1699 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1700 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1701 protocol).
1702
1703 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1704 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1705 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1706 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1707
1708 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1709 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1710 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1711 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1712 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1713
1714 aECDH - ECDH cert
1715 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1716 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1717
1718 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1719 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1720
1721 [Bodo Moeller]
1722
Dr. Stephen Hensonfb7b3932006-06-06 13:27:36 +00001723 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1724 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1725 [Steve Henson]
1726
Dr. Stephen Henson01b8b3c2006-06-05 11:52:46 +00001727 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1728 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1729 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonde9fcfe2006-06-02 17:52:27 +00001730
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +00001731 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9777d22006-06-02 12:33:39 +00001732 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1733 functional reference processing.
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +00001734 [Steve Henson]
1735
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02001736 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
Dr. Stephen Henson91c9e622006-05-24 17:30:09 +00001737 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1738 process.
1739 [Steve Henson]
1740
Dr. Stephen Henson55311922006-05-18 23:44:44 +00001741 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1742 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1743 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1744 [Steve Henson]
1745
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7fcd2006-05-18 12:41:28 +00001746 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1747 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1748 application to support multiple signers.
1749 [Steve Henson]
1750
Dr. Stephen Henson121dd392006-05-17 18:46:22 +00001751 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1752 digest MAC.
1753 [Steve Henson]
1754
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +00001755 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8f702a2006-05-15 17:34:36 +00001756 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3a1ea2006-05-15 18:35:13 +00001757 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1758 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1759 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +00001760 [Steve Henson]
1761
Dr. Stephen Henson34b3c722006-05-14 16:50:22 +00001762 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
Dr. Stephen Henson959e8df2006-05-11 21:39:00 +00001763 new API.
1764 [Steve Henson]
1765
Dr. Stephen Henson399a6f02006-05-08 12:44:25 +00001766 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1767 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1768 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1769 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1770 a no op.
1771 [Steve Henson]
Richard Levitte28e4fe32005-05-18 04:04:12 +00001772
Dr. Stephen Henson03919682006-05-07 17:09:39 +00001773 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1774 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1775 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02001776 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
Dr. Stephen Henson03919682006-05-07 17:09:39 +00001777 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1778 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1779 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1780 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1781 [Steve Henson]
1782
Dr. Stephen Hensonee1d9ec2006-04-19 17:05:59 +00001783 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1784 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1785 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1786 between digests and public key types.
1787 [Steve Henson]
1788
Dr. Stephen Hensond2027092006-04-18 23:36:07 +00001789 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1790 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1791 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1792 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1793 [Steve Henson]
1794
Dr. Stephen Henson492a9e22006-04-17 17:12:23 +00001795 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1796 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1797 key ASN1 method.
1798 [Steve Henson]
1799
Dr. Stephen Henson9ca70472006-04-16 16:15:59 +00001800 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1801 [Steve Henson]
1802
Dr. Stephen Hensonffb1ac62006-04-13 20:16:56 +00001803 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1804 pkeyutl.
1805 [Steve Henson]
1806
Dr. Stephen Henson3ba08852006-04-12 23:51:24 +00001807 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1808 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1809 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1810 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1811 pkey, genpkey.
1812 [Steve Henson]
1813
Ulf Möller4700aea2006-04-11 21:34:21 +00001814 *) BeOS support.
1815 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1816

1829 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1830 [Steve Henson]
1831
Dr. Stephen Henson0b6f3c62006-04-06 13:02:06 +00001832 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public

1834 [Steve Henson]
1835
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33dac2006-04-04 18:16:03 +00001836 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about

Bodo Möller1aeb3da2006-01-06 09:08:59 +00001892 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1893 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1894 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1895 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1896 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1897 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1898 server_name extension.

1917 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1918 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1919 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1920 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by

1928
Andy Polyakov0cb9d932005-12-16 11:12:42 +00001929 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1930 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1931 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1932 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1933 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1934 [Andy Polyakov]
1935
Bodo Möller8dee9f82005-11-15 21:08:38 +00001936 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c

1943 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1944 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1945 [Andy Polyakov]
1946
Dr. Stephen Henson566dda02005-10-08 00:18:53 +00001947 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1948 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1949 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1950 using the maximum available value.
1951 [Steve Henson]
1952
Bodo Möller13e46702005-10-01 04:08:48 +00001953 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code

2035
2036 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
2037 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
2038 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
2039 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)

2054
2055 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2056 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2057 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2058 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2059 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2060 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2061 an MMA defence is not necessary.

2125
2126 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2127 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2128 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,

Dr. Stephen Henson732d31b2010-11-16 14:18:51 +00002170 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2171 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2172 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
Bodo Möllerc415adc2011-02-08 19:09:08 +00002173 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson732d31b2010-11-16 14:18:51 +00002174
Dr. Stephen Hensone49af2a2010-10-10 12:24:13 +00002175 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
2176 [Steve Henson]
2177
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02002178 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
Dr. Stephen Henson39239282010-10-03 18:58:09 +00002179 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
2180 some broken encodings work correctly.
2181 [Steve Henson]
2182
Bodo Möllerc94f7f62010-08-26 12:11:01 +00002183 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
2184 is also one of the inputs.
2185 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2186
2187 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
2188 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
2189 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
2190 etc are non-op.
2191 [Steve Henson]
2192
Bodo Möller173350b2010-08-26 11:22:33 +00002193 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
2194
2195 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
2196 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0b8eb62010-04-07 13:18:07 +00002197
Dr. Stephen Henson3cbb15e2010-06-01 14:39:01 +00002198 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
2199 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
2200 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
2201
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0b8eb62010-04-07 13:18:07 +00002202 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
2203 common in certificates and some applications which only call
2204 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
2205 [Steve Henson]
2206
Bodo Möller173350b2010-08-26 11:22:33 +00002207 *) VMS fixes:
2208 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
2209 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
2210 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
2211 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
2212
Bodo Möller3e8b6482010-03-25 11:25:30 +00002213 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2214
2215 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2216 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2217 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2218 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2219 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2220 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
Bodo Möller173350b2010-08-26 11:22:33 +00002221 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2222 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
Bodo Möller3e8b6482010-03-25 11:25:30 +00002223
Dr. Stephen Hensoncca1cd92010-03-03 15:41:18 +00002224 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2225 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2226 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
Bodo Möllerf3dea9a2006-06-09 15:44:59 +00002227
Bodo Möller3e8b6482010-03-25 11:25:30 +00002228 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
Mark J. Coxfb75f342010-03-12 08:36:44 +00002229
2230 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2231 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
Bodo Möllera8397552010-02-19 18:27:07 +00002232
2233 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2234 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2235 [Bodo Moeller]
Dr. Stephen Hensonddcfc252009-03-25 19:02:22 +00002236
Dr. Stephen Henson47e0a1c2010-02-17 14:32:41 +00002237 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2238 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2239 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2240 [Steve Henson]
2241
Dr. Stephen Henson4ba1aa32010-01-27 14:05:39 +00002242 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
Dr. Stephen Hensond5e7f2f2010-01-26 19:47:37 +00002243 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2244 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2245 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2246 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2247 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2248 [Steve Henson]
2249
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd5f21a2010-01-13 19:08:02 +00002250 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2251 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2252 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2253 [Steve Henson]
2254
Dr. Stephen Henson1b31b5a2010-01-13 18:57:40 +00002255 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2256 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
Dr. Stephen Henson58c0da82010-01-26 12:30:00 +00002257 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
Dr. Stephen Henson1b31b5a2010-01-13 18:57:40 +00002258 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2259 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2260 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2261 CVE-2009-4355.
2262 [Steve Henson]
2263
Bodo Möller3e8b6482010-03-25 11:25:30 +00002264 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2265 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2266 [Bodo Moeller]
2267
Dr. Stephen Hensonef51b4b2009-12-16 20:25:59 +00002268 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2c49962010-02-17 18:38:31 +00002269 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
Dr. Stephen Hensonef51b4b2009-12-16 20:25:59 +00002270 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2271 [Steve Henson]
2272
Dr. Stephen Henson7661cca2009-12-09 13:25:16 +00002273 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2274 [Steve Henson]
2275
Dr. Stephen Henson82e610e2009-12-08 19:06:26 +00002276 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9595982010-02-12 21:59:31 +00002277 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2278 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2279 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2280 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2281 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2282 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2283 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2284 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
Dr. Stephen Henson82e610e2009-12-08 19:06:26 +00002285 [Steve Henson]
2286
Dr. Stephen Henson54302002009-12-08 13:42:08 +00002287 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2288 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2289 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2290 [Steve Henson]
2291
Dr. Stephen Henson9d953022009-12-02 15:28:27 +00002292 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2293 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2294 [Steve Henson]
2295
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9595982010-02-12 21:59:31 +00002296 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2297 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2298 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
Dr. Stephen Hensone0e79972009-11-09 19:03:34 +00002299 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2300 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2301 know what you are doing.
Dr. Stephen Henson13f6d572009-12-08 13:14:03 +00002302 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensone0e79972009-11-09 19:03:34 +00002303
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb4060c2009-10-30 13:29:30 +00002304 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2305 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2306 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2307 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00002308 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb4060c2009-10-30 13:29:30 +00002309 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2310 the handshake.
2311 [Steve Henson]
2312
Dr. Stephen Hensona25f33d2009-09-13 11:29:29 +00002313 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2314 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2315 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2316 correctly.
2317 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2318
Dr. Stephen Henson0c28f272009-09-09 16:31:32 +00002319 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2320 warnings in other configurations.
2321 [Steve Henson]
2322
Dr. Stephen Henson67275652009-08-10 14:48:40 +00002323 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00002324 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
Dr. Stephen Henson67275652009-08-10 14:48:40 +00002325 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2326 systems need.
2327 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2328
Dr. Stephen Hensond9d0f1b2009-08-06 16:32:54 +00002329 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2330 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2331 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2332
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00002333 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2334 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2335 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2336 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2337 [Steve Henson]
2338
Dr. Stephen Henson9de014a2009-06-30 22:27:33 +00002339 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2340 and restored.
2341 [Steve Henson]
2342
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00002343 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2344 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2345 clash.
2346 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2347
Dr. Stephen Hensond2f6d282009-06-28 16:24:37 +00002348 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2349 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2350 other than a simple chain.
2351 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2352
Dr. Stephen Hensonf3be6c72009-06-26 11:29:26 +00002353 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2354 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2355 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2356 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
Dr. Stephen Henson31db43d2009-06-15 15:01:00 +00002357 [Steve Henson]
2358
Dr. Stephen Hensond0b72cf2009-05-18 17:37:33 +00002359 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2360 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2361 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2362 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2363 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2364 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2365 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00002366 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
Dr. Stephen Hensond0b72cf2009-05-18 17:37:33 +00002367 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2368
2369 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2370 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2371 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2372 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2373 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2374 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00002375 (CVE-2009-1377)

2377
2378 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00002379 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)

Bodo Möller480af992009-11-26 18:43:17 +00002388 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2389
2390 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2391 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2392 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2393 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2394 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2395 you're doing.
2396 [Ben Laurie]
2397
Dr. Stephen Henson4d7b7c62009-03-25 12:57:50 +00002398 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]

2404
Dr. Stephen Henson80b2ff92009-03-25 12:53:50 +00002405 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not

2413 [Steve Henson]
2414
Dr. Stephen Henson237d7b62009-03-15 13:37:34 +00002415 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it

2476 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2477 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)

2577 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2578
2579 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2580 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2581 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2582 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2583 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2584
2585 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2586 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2587
2588 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2589 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2590 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2591 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2592 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)

Geoff Thorpee7b097f2008-04-28 21:39:09 +00002602 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2603 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2604 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2605 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2606 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2607 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2608 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2609 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2610 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an

Bodo Möllerdb99c522008-09-14 13:51:44 +00002616
2617 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be

Andy Polyakov0d89e452007-10-13 10:55:30 +00002691 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2692 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2693 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2694 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2695 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2696 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2697 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2698 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2699 [Andy Polyakov]
2700
2701 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers

2703 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2704 Steve Henson]
2705
2706 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2707 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2708 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2709 supported.
2710
2711 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2712 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2713 SSL_SESSION.
2714
2715 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2716 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2717 with no application modification.
2718
2719 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2720 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2721
2722 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2723 or server extensions to be examined.
2724
2725 This work was sponsored by Google.
2726 [Steve Henson]
2727
2728 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2729 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2730 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2731 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2732 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2733 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2734 server_name extension.
2735
2736 New functions (subject to change):
2737
2738 SSL_get_servername()
2739 SSL_get_servername_type()
2740 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2741
2742 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2743
2744 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2745 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2746 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2747 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2748 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2749
2750 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2751
2752 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2753 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2754 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2755 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2756 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2757 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2758 option.

Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00002792 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a

2798 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2799 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2800 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2801 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
Bodo Möllerb0022652007-03-28 18:41:23 +00002802 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2803 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2804 remove a conditional branch.
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00002805
2806 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2807 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2808 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2809 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2810 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2811 remains as a deprecated alias.
2812
2813 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2814 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2815 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2816 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2817
2818 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2819 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2820 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2821 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2822 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2823 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2824 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2825 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.

Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00002829 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2830 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2831 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2832 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2833 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2834 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2835 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2836 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2837 in a different context.

2850
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00002851 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2852 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2853 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2854 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2855 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).

2859 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2860 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2861 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER

2900
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00002901 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2902 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
Bodo Möllerb6699c32006-09-12 14:42:19 +00002903 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2904 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00002905 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2906 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2907 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2908 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2909 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2910
2911 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2912 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2913 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2914 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2915 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2916
2917 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2918 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2919 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2920 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2921 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02002922 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00002923 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2924 multiple values to extend the available space.

3145
Richard Levitte6951c232004-12-28 00:21:35 +00003146 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3147 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3148 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3149 [Richard Levitte]
3150
Andy Polyakovea681ba2004-11-26 15:26:09 +00003151 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3152 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3153 [Andy Polyakov]
3154
Dr. Stephen Henson401ee372004-11-25 17:47:31 +00003155 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3156 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3157 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3158 pod file:
3159
3160 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3161
3162 The blank line is mandatory.
3163
3164 [Steve Henson]
3165
Dr. Stephen Henson826a42a2004-11-16 17:30:59 +00003166 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3167 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3168 sources.
3169 [Steve Henson]
3170
Dr. Stephen Henson5d7c2222004-09-06 18:43:01 +00003171 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3172 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3173
3174 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3175 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3176 to support policy checking and print out.
3177 [Steve Henson]
3178
Geoff Thorpe30fe0282004-08-04 22:42:29 +00003179 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3180 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3181 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3182 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3183
Geoff Thorpedf11e1e2004-06-17 23:50:25 +00003184 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3185 [Geoff Thorpe]
3186
Andy Polyakovad500342004-05-31 14:03:02 +00003187 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3188 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3189
Andy Polyakove14f4aa2004-05-13 13:58:44 +00003190 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3191 implementation contributed by IBM.
3192 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3193
Geoff Thorpebcfea9f2004-04-26 15:31:35 +00003194 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3195 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3196 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3197 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3198
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00003199 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3200 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3201
3202 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3203 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3204 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3205 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3206 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3207 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
Dr. Stephen Henson64674bc2004-04-20 12:05:26 +00003208 [Steve Henson]
3209
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003210 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
Geoff Thorpe3a87a9b2004-04-19 17:46:04 +00003211 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3212 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3213 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3214 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3215 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3216 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3217 [Geoff Thorpe]
3218
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf5773f2004-03-31 12:55:33 +00003219 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3220 [Steve Henson]
3221
Dr. Stephen Henson216659e2004-03-28 17:38:00 +00003222 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3223 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3224 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3225 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3226 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3227 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3228 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3229 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3230 [Steve Henson]
3231
Dr. Stephen Hensone1a27eb2004-03-27 22:49:28 +00003232 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3233 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3234 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3235 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3236 [Steve Henson]
3237
Dr. Stephen Henson6446e0c2004-03-27 13:30:14 +00003238 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3239 syntax:
3240
3241 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3242 [Steve Henson]
3243
Geoff Thorpe5c98b2c2004-03-25 04:16:14 +00003244 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3245 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3246 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3247 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3248 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3249 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3250 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3251 [Geoff Thorpe]
3252
Geoff Thorpe46ef8732004-03-25 02:52:04 +00003253 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3254 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3255 [Geoff Thorpe]
3256
Dr. Stephen Henson4acc3e92004-03-23 14:14:35 +00003257 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3258 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3259 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3260 [Steve Henson]
3261
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00003262 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3263 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3264 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3265 below).
3266 [Geoff Thorpe]
3267
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00003268 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3269 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00003270 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00003271
Geoff Thorpeb6358c82004-03-13 23:57:20 +00003272 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3273 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3274 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3275 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3276 [Geoff Thorpe]
3277
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00003278 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3279 initialised value as BN_new().
3280 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3281
Dr. Stephen Hensonedec6142004-03-08 13:56:31 +00003282 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3283 [Steve Henson]
3284
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00003285 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3286 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3287 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3288 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3289 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3290 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3291 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3292 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3293 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3294 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3295 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3296 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3297 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3298 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00003299 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00003300
Geoff Thorpe2ce90b92003-10-29 18:04:37 +00003301 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3302 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3303 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3304 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3305 [Geoff Thorpe]
3306
Geoff Thorpe8dc344c2003-10-29 04:57:05 +00003307 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3308 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3309 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3310 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3311 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3312 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3313 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3314 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3315 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3316 [Geoff Thorpe]
3317
Geoff Thorpe0991f072003-10-29 04:40:13 +00003318 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3319 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3320 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3321 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3322 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3323 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3324 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3325 [Geoff Thorpe]
3326
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00003327 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
Geoff Thorpe2aaec9c2003-10-29 04:14:08 +00003328 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3329 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3330 these have been updated also.
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00003331 [Geoff Thorpe]
3332
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00003333 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003334 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00003335 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3336 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3337 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3338 functions.
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00003339 [Steve Henson]
3340
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00003341 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3342 structure of type "other".
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00003343 [Steve Henson]
3344
Ralf S. Engelschall6bd27f82003-09-25 13:57:58 +00003345 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3346 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3347 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3348 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3349 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3350 situation in the script.
3351 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3352
Bodo Möller968766c2003-07-22 12:34:21 +00003353 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3354 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3355 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3356 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3357 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3358 used as premaster secret.
3359 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3360
Bodo Möller652ae062003-07-22 10:39:10 +00003361 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3362 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3363 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3364
Richard Levittee666c452003-06-11 22:42:28 +00003365 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3366 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3367
Richard Levitte54f64512003-06-11 20:49:58 +00003368 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3369 control of the error stack.
3370 [Richard Levitte]
3371
Richard Levitte3bbb0212003-05-01 03:57:46 +00003372 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3373 [Richard Levitte]
3374
Richard Levittea5db6fa2003-05-01 03:53:12 +00003375 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3376 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3377 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3378 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3379 [Richard Levitte]
3380
Richard Levitte535fba42003-05-01 03:45:18 +00003381 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3382 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3383 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3384 [Richard Levitte]
3385
Richard Levitte1ae0a832003-04-29 22:08:57 +00003386 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3387 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3388 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3389 a memory area.
3390 [Richard Levitte]
3391
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +00003392 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3393 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3394 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3395 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3396 [Richard Levitte]
3397
Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +00003398 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3399 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3400 the following flags are defined:
3401
3402 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3403 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3404 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3405 number.
3406
3407 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3408 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3409 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3410 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3411 returns zero.
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +00003412 [Richard Levitte]

Richard Levitte16b1b032003-04-03 22:33:59 +00003414 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3415 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3416 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3417 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3418 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3419 [Richard Levitte]
3420
Richard Levittee6526fb2003-04-03 22:27:24 +00003421 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3422 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3423 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3424 [Richard Levitte]
3425
Richard Levittef85b68c2003-04-03 16:33:03 +00003426 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3427 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3428 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3429 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3430 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3431 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3432 [Richard Levitte]
3433
Dr. Stephen Henson1a15c892003-03-30 01:51:16 +00003434 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3435 req and dirName.
3436 [Steve Henson]
3437
Dr. Stephen Henson520b76f2003-03-24 17:04:44 +00003438 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3439 [Steve Henson]
3440
Dr. Stephen Hensonf80153e2003-03-21 16:26:20 +00003441 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3442 [Steve Henson]
3443
Dr. Stephen Hensona1d12da2003-03-20 17:26:44 +00003444 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3445 [Steve Henson]
3446
Geoff Thorpe879650b2003-03-11 01:49:21 +00003447 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3448 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3449 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3450 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3451 default implementation more easily.
3452 [Geoff Thorpe]
3453
Dr. Stephen Hensonf0dc08e2003-02-27 01:54:11 +00003454 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3455 in config files.
3456 [Steve Henson]
3457
Richard Levitte132eaa52003-02-22 14:41:34 +00003458 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3459 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3460 [Richard Levitte]
3461
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00003462 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3463 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3464 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3465 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3466
Dr. Stephen Hensone9ec6392003-02-25 19:03:31 +00003467 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00003468 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3469 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3470 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3471 [Steve Henson]
3472
Richard Levitte2d3de722003-02-13 23:52:54 +00003473 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3474 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3475 to do it.
3476 [Richard Levitte]
3477
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00003478 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with

Geoff Thorpe96f70652003-01-30 15:52:40 +00003492 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3493 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3494 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3495 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3496 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3497 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3498 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3499 linker additions, eg;
3500 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3501 [Geoff Thorpe]
3502
3503 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3504 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3505 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".

Geoff Thorpe0e4aa0d2003-01-15 02:01:55 +00003514 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3515 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3516 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003517 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.

3519
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +00003520 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3521 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3522 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3523 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3524 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3525 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3526 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3527 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3528 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3529 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00003530
3531 Example for using the new callback interface:

3539 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3540 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3541 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3542 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.

3556
3557 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {

3562 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3563 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".

3611
Dr. Stephen Henson9a48b072002-10-03 23:53:52 +00003612 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3613 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3614 files while avoiding the low level API.
3615
3616 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3617 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3618 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3619 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3620
3621 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3622 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3623 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3624 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()

3687
3688 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3689 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3690 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3691 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)

3741 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3742
3743 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3744 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3745 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3746 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial

Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00003857 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the

3859 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3860 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3861 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3862 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3863 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be

3948 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3949 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3950 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the

4195 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4196 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical

4201
Dr. Stephen Hensondc90f642004-02-19 18:16:38 +00004202 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4203 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4204 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4205 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4206 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.

4208
Dr. Stephen Hensond4575822004-02-01 13:39:51 +00004209 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when

4266 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4267 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening

4281 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call

Bodo Möllerc5541552003-03-20 17:31:30 +00004285
4286 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4287 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4288 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
Bodo Möller5679bcc2003-04-02 09:50:22 +00004289 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4290 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4291 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4292 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4293 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4294 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

Richard Levitte5b0b0e92003-02-19 12:03:59 +00004311 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure

Richard Levitte758f9422003-02-18 12:14:57 +00004319 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4320 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4321 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4322 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4323 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4324
4325 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4326 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4327 used by default when no-err is given.

4338
Dr. Stephen Hensoncf566632003-02-12 17:06:02 +00004339 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4340 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4341 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4342 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4343
4344 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4345
4346 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4347
4348 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4349
4350 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4351 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4352 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4353 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4354 root is omitted).

Richard Levitte14676ff2002-12-12 17:40:15 +00004407 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
Richard Levittea1457872002-12-13 07:30:53 +00004408 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4409 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
Richard Levitte14676ff2002-12-12 17:40:15 +00004410 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4411 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4412 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4413 of libcrypto.
4414 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4415 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have

Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004814 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4815 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4816 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4817 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00004818
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004819 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4820 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4821 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4822 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4823
4824 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4825 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4826 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4827 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4828
4829 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4830 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4831 won't work.
Richard Levittec2e4f172001-10-24 21:21:12 +00004832
4833 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4834 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4835 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004836 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4837 default), and then completely removed.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004840 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1558bb2001-10-21 02:09:15 +00004841 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4842 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4843 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4844 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4845 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4846 particular extension is supported.
4847 [Steve Henson]
4848
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004849 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
Dr. Stephen Henson581f1c82001-10-17 00:37:12 +00004850 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4851 [Steve Henson]
4852
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004853 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
Dr. Stephen Henson50d194a2001-10-23 00:54:58 +00004854 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4855 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4856 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4857 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4858 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4859 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4860 requires the destination to be valid.
4861
4862 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4863 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().

4865
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004866 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
Bodo Möller48948d52001-10-15 19:49:25 +00004867 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4868 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.

4870
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004871 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.

4873
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004874 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00004875 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4876 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02004877 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00004878 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4879 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4880 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4881 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4882 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4883 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4884 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4885 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4886 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4887 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4888 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4889 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4890 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4891 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4892 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4893 the new code.
4894 [Geoff Thorpe]
4895
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004896 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.

4898
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004899 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
Richard Levitte89eecca2001-09-26 15:06:45 +00004900 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4901 become part of libeay.num as well.
4902 [Richard Levitte]
4903
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004904 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00004905 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02004906 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00004907 false once a handshake has been completed.
4908 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4909 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4910 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4911 client has followed the request.)
4912 [Bodo Moeller]
4913
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004914 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00004915 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4916 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4917 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
Bodo Möllerc21506b2002-06-14 12:21:11 +00004918
4919 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4920 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4921 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004936 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +00004937 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4938 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4939 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004942 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00004943 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4944 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4945 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4946 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4947 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4948 [Geoff Thorpe]
4949
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004950 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00004951 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4952 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4953 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4954 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4955 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4956 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4957 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).

4970
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004971 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00004972 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4973 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4974 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4975 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4976 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4977 [Ben Laurie]
4978
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004979 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00004980 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4981 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4982 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4983 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4984 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4985 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4986 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4987 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4988 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4989 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4990 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4991 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4992 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4993 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +00004994
4995 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4996 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4997 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00004998 [Geoff Thorpe]
4999
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005000 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +00005001 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5002 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5003 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5004 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5005 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5006 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5007 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5008 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5009 [Geoff Thorpe]
5010
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005011 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00005012 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5013 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5014 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5015 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +00005016
5017 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".

5025
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005026 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
Dr. Stephen Henson35bf3542001-08-17 00:33:43 +00005027 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5028 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5029 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5030 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5031 [Steve Henson]
5032
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005033 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00005034 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +00005035 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00005036 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5037 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5038 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

5040
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005041 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
Bodo Möller76f8a1f2002-06-26 14:21:16 +00005042 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5043 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00005044 Usage example:

5048 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5049 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());

Ben Laurie8408f4f2001-07-31 13:33:58 +00005057 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5058 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5059 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00005060 anyway): E.g.,
5061
5062 des_key_schedule ks;
5063
5064 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5065 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5066

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005070 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +00005071 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5072 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5073 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5074 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5075 functions prevents this.

5084
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005085 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
Dr. Stephen Hensonee306a12001-07-12 20:41:51 +00005086 revocation information is handled using the text based index

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005095 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
Richard Levitte0665dd62001-07-12 04:23:57 +00005096 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5097 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5098 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5099
5100 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5101 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5102
5103 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005108 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
Geoff Thorpeaf436bc2001-07-11 18:59:25 +00005109 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5110 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5111 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).

Dr. Stephen Hensonb7a26e62001-06-28 11:41:50 +00005136 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5137 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5138 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5139 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the

5154 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback

5191
5192 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5193
5194 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005195 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
Dr. Stephen Henson4831e622001-05-12 23:57:41 +00005196 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5197 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5198 [Steve Henson]
5199
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005200 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
Dr. Stephen Henson926a56b2001-05-10 00:13:59 +00005201 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5202 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5203 [Steve Henson]
5204
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005205 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdee69f2001-05-09 00:30:39 +00005206 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5207 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5208 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5209 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5210 internally such as S/MIME.
5211
5212 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5213 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5214 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5215
5216 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5217 applications.
5218 [Steve Henson]
5219
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005220 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
Dr. Stephen Hensonb545dc62001-05-07 22:52:50 +00005221 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5222 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5223 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5224
5225 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5226
5227 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5228
5229 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5230 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5231 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5232 handling.
5233 [Steve Henson]
5234
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005235 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
Bodo Möller8a774dc2001-06-11 09:55:20 +00005236 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5237 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5238 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5239 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5240 a window system and the like.

5242
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005243 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00005244 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5245 [Geoff]
5246
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005247 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00005248 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5249 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5250 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5251 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5252 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5253 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5254 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5255 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5256 ENGINE structure.

5258
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005259 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9624792001-04-21 12:06:01 +00005260 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5261 tag cache.
5262 [Steve Henson]
5263
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005264 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00005265 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5266 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5267 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5268 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5269 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5270 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5271 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5272 [Geoff]
5273
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005274 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00005275 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5276 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5277 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5278 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5279 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5280 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5281 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5282 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5283 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5284 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5285 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5286 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5287 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5288 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5289 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5290 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5291 [Geoff]
5292
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005293 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00005294 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5295 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5296 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5297 internal engine_int.h header.
5298 [Geoff]
5299
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005300 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00005301 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5302 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5303 modify their own ones).
5304 [Geoff]
5305
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005306 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00005307 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5308 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5309 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5310 later on via ctrl() commands.
5311 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5312 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5313 structural references.
5314 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5315 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5316 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5317 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5318 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02005319 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00005320 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5321 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5322 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5323 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5324 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5325 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.

Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005329 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +00005330 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5331 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5332 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5333 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5334 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5335 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

5348 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5349 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5350 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5351 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5352 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005392 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005396 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4f682d2001-03-10 01:56:48 +00005397 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"

5416
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005417 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
Bodo Möller5277d7c2001-03-07 01:19:07 +00005418
5419 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7

5422 ASN1 error codes
5423 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5424 ...
5425 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5426 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5427 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5428 ...
5429 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5430 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5431
5432 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005449 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00005450 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5451 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5452 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5453 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5454 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5455
5456 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5457 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5458
5459 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5460 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5461
5462 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5463 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5464
5465 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5466 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5467 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5468 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5469
5470 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005471 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00005472
5473 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005474 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00005475
5476 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5477 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5478 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5479 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5480 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5481 [Richard Levitte]
5482
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005483 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
Dr. Stephen Henson3d2e4692001-02-28 00:51:48 +00005484 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5485 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5486 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5487 [Steve Henson]
5488
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005489 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
Dr. Stephen Hensonfafc7f92001-02-26 14:17:58 +00005490 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5491 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5492 trust settings.
5493 [Steve Henson]
5494
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005495 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00005496 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5497 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5498 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005499 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00005500 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5501 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5502 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5503 ocsp utility.

5505
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005506 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its

5509
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005510 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
Dr. Stephen Hensond7c06e92001-02-23 13:04:24 +00005511 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5512 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5513 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5514 [Steve Henson]
5515
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005516 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00005517 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5518 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5519 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5520 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5521 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5522 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5523 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5524 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5525 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5526 [Steve Henson]
5527
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005528 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00005529 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5530 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5531 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5532 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5533 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5534 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5535 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5536
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005537 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
Richard Levitted399fdf2001-02-21 14:12:03 +00005538 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5539 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5540 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5541 [Richard Levitte]
5542
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005543 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00005544 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5545 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5546 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5547 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00005548 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5549 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5550 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5551 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5552 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5553 what is available.

5555
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005556 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
Dr. Stephen Hensonacba75c2001-02-19 13:38:32 +00005557 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5558 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5559 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5560 auto incremented.

5562
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005563 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6b7ffd2001-02-16 01:35:44 +00005564 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5565 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5566 [Steve Henson]
5567
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005568 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
Dr. Stephen Hensonf2e5ca82001-02-14 02:11:52 +00005569 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5570 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5571 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5572 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.

5577
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005578 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
Dr. Stephen Henson67c18012001-02-13 00:37:44 +00005579 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5580 option to ocsp utility.
5581 [Steve Henson]
5582
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005583 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00005584 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5585 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5586 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5587 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5588 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5589 the request is nonce-less.

Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00005627 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5628 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5629 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5630 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5631 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5632 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5633 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group

5643 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5644 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5645 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005646 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00005647 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5648 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5649 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5650 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5651 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5652 [Steve Henson]

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005668 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00005669 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5670 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.

5673
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005674 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00005675 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5676 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.

5678
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005679 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00005680 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5681 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5682 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5683 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5684 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

5687
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005688 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00005689 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5690 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5691 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5692 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5693 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5694 [Steve Henson]
5695
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005696 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00005697 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5698 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5699 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5700 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5701 printout format cleaned up.
5702 [Steve Henson]
5703
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005704 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00005705 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5706 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5707 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5708 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5709 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5710 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5711 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5712 [Steve Henson]
5713
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005714 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00005715 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5716 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5717 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5718 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5719 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5720 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5721 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5722 [Steve Henson]
5723
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005724 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
Bodo Möllerdfebac32001-01-15 11:35:24 +00005725 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5726 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5727 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5728 section to use.

5730
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005731 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
Dr. Stephen Henson5782ceb2001-01-13 01:48:38 +00005732 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5733 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5734 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5735 [Steve Henson]
5736
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005737 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
Bodo Möllerc67cdb52001-01-12 14:50:44 +00005738 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5739 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5740 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5741 in the index file.

5743
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005744 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
Bodo Möllerd1998582001-01-11 13:23:19 +00005745 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5746 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.

5751
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005752 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
Dr. Stephen Henson9b4dc832001-01-11 00:52:50 +00005753 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5754 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5755 [Steve Henson]
5756
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005757 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
Bodo Möller673b3fd2001-01-10 15:15:36 +00005758 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5759 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5760 [Bodo Moeller]
5761
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005762 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00005763 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5764 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5765 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5766 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5767 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5768 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5769 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +00005770
5771 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5772 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5773 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5774 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5775
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00005776 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5777 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5778 extended allocation function is enabled.
5779 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5780 a conventional allocation function is enabled.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005783 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
Geoff Thorpe3c914842001-01-09 00:24:38 +00005784 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
Geoff Thorpe56a67ad2001-01-09 16:39:04 +00005785 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5786 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5787 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005790 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00005791 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5792 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5793 be queried.
5794 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5795 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5796 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

5798
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005799 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00005800 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5801 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5802 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5803 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5804 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5805 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5806 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5807 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005810 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00005811 provide utility functions which an application needing
5812 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5813 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5814 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5815
5816 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5817 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5818 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5819 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5820 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5821 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5822 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5823 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5824 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5825
5826 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5827 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5828 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5829 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5830 [Steve Henson]
5831
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005832 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00005833 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5834 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5835 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5836 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5837 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5838 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5839 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5840 will be added elsewhere.
5841 [Steve Henson]
5842
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005843 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf0d1762001-01-04 01:46:36 +00005844 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5845 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5846 can be used to send requests and parse the response.

5848
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005849 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00005850 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5851 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5852 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5853 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5854 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5855 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5856 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5857 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5858 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5859 to produce the required SET OF.
5860 [Steve Henson]
5861
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005862 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
Richard Levittea6574c22000-12-31 00:26:18 +00005863 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header

5865 [Richard Levitte]
5866
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005867 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
Dr. Stephen Hensonecbe0782000-12-31 01:13:04 +00005868 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5869 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5870 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5871 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5872 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5873 [Steve Henson]
5874
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005875 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
Dr. Stephen Henson4e1209e2000-12-30 02:40:26 +00005876 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5877 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5878 [Steve Henson]
5879
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005880 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor

5884
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005885 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
Dr. Stephen Henson73e92de2000-12-28 22:24:50 +00005886 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5887 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5888 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old

Dr. Stephen Henson06db4252000-12-13 23:54:30 +00005938 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5939 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5940 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005953 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00005954 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5955 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5956 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5957 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5958 has also been converted to the new form.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005961 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00005962 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5963 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5964 for negative moduli.

5974
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005975 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
Geoff Thorpef1919c32000-12-04 03:35:35 +00005976 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5977 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5978 type-specific callbacks.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006008 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +00006009 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6010 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6011 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6012 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.

6014
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006015 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the

6017
6018 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6019
6020 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6021 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6022 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6023 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6024 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().

6034
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006035 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00006036 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6037 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6038 [Bodo Moeller]
6039
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006040 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c

Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00006058 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6059 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).

6067 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6068 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6069 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6070
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006071 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00006072 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6073 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00006074 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6075 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00006076 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006081 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00006082 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6083 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6084 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6085 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6086
6087 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6088 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6089 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6090 cause any problems.
6091 [Bodo Moeller]
6092
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006093 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.

Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00006101 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a

6117 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6118 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6119 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6120
6121 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6122 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6123 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6124 libraries unless it's really needed.

6126 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.

Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00006181 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6182 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6183 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6184 binary backward compatibility.
6185 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6186 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6187 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6188 LDAP server.

Dr. Stephen Henson924046c2000-10-12 01:50:33 +00006192 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6193 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was

Dr. Stephen Henson29902442003-09-30 16:47:33 +00006227 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:

6229 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00006230 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).

Dr. Stephen Henson14f3d7c2003-09-03 23:47:34 +00006237 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6238 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6239 specifications.
6240 [Steve Henson]
6241
Bodo Möllerddc38672003-07-21 15:17:46 +00006242 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6243 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6244 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).

6246
Bodo Möller02e05592003-07-21 15:08:01 +00006247 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable

6252
6253 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6254 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6255 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6256 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6257 [Bodo Moeller]
6258
6259 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6260 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6261 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6262 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6263 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6264
6265 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6266 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6267 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6268 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6269 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6270 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6271 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6272 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6273 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02006279 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
Richard Levitte5b0b0e92003-02-19 12:03:59 +00006280 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6281 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
Mark J. Cox04fac372005-10-19 11:00:39 +00006282 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)

Richard Levittedf29cc82002-11-27 12:24:05 +00006290 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6291 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6292 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6293 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6294 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6295 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6296 [Geoff Thorpe]
6297
Lutz Jänicke6a8afe22002-11-20 10:48:58 +00006298 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6299 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6300 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6301 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.

6308
Richard Levitte84034f72002-11-15 13:58:11 +00006309 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6310 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6311 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6312 EVP_cleanup().
6313 [Richard Levitte]
6314
Richard Levitte83411792002-11-14 06:51:18 +00006315 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not

6317 [Richard Levitte]
6318
Richard Levittec81a1502002-11-09 21:52:20 +00006319 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6320 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6321 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6322 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6323
Geoff Thorpe9c3db402002-10-29 18:01:08 +00006324 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6325 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6326 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6327 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6328 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6329 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6330 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6331 change.

Bodo Möllera4f53a12002-09-19 11:44:07 +00006334 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c

Bodo Möllerc21506b2002-06-14 12:21:11 +00006392 *) New option
6393 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6394 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6395 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6396
6397 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6398 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6399 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6400 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6401 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many

6477 BN_generate_prime().)
6478
6479 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6480 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6481 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not

6526
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006527 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6528 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6529 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6530 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6531 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6532 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6533 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6534 session cache.
6535
6536 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6537 using a local variable.

6540 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6541 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6542 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6543
6544 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6545 [Richard Levitte]
6546
6547 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6548 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6549
6550 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6551 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6552 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6553
6554 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6555
6556 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6557 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6558 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6559 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6560 [Bodo Moeller]
6561
6562 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6563 present.
6564 [Steve Henson]
6565
6566 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6567 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6568 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6569 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6570 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6571
6572 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6573 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6574 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6575
6576 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6577 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6578 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6579
6580 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6581 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6582 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6583 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6584
6585 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6586 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6587 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6588 modules).
6589 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6590
6591 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6592 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6593 from 0.9.7.
6594 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6595
6596 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6597 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6598 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6599 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6600
6601 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6602 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6603 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6604 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6605
6606 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6607 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6608
6609 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6610 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6611 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6612 [Bodo Moeller]
6613
6614 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6615 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6616 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6617 become invalid.
6618 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6619
6620 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6621 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6622 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6623 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6624 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6625 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6626 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6627 [Bodo Moeller]
6628
6629 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6630 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6631 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6632 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6633
6634 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6635 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6636 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6637 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6638 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6639 the client will at least see that alert.
6640 [Bodo Moeller]
6641
6642 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6643 correctly.
6644 [Bodo Moeller]
6645
6646 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6647 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6648 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6649
6650 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02006651 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006652 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6653 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6654 HelloRequest.
6655
6656 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6657 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6658 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6659
6660 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6661 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02006662 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006663 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6664 may leak via logfiles.)
6665
6666 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6667 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6668 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6669 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6670 the legal range.
6671 [Bodo Moeller]
6672
6673 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6674 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6675 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6676
6677 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6678 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6679 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6680 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6681 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6682 [Bodo Moeller]
6683
6684 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6685 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6686
6687 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6688 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6689 followed by modular reduction.
6690 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6691
6692 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6693 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6694 [Bodo Moeller]
6695
6696 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6697 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6698 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6699 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6700 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6701
6702 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6703 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6704
6705 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6706 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6707 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6708
6709 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6710 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6711 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6712 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6713 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6714 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6715 automatically.
6716 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6717
6718 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6719 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6720 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6721 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6722 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6723
6724 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6725 [Andy Polyakov]
6726
6727 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6728 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6729 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6730 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6731 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6732 to allow the necessary settings.
6733 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6734
6735 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6736 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6737 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6738 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6739 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6740
6741 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6742 dh->length and always used
6743
6744 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6745
6746 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6747 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6748 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6749 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6750 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6751 dh->length.
6752
6753 So switch back to
6754
6755 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6756
6757 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6758 otherwise.
6759 [Bodo Moeller]
6760
6761 *) In
6762
6763 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6764 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6765 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6766 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6767
6768 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6769 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6770 always reject numbers >= n.
6771 [Bodo Moeller]
6772
6773 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6774 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6775 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6776 variable) is not atomic.
6777 [Bodo Moeller]
6778
6779 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6780 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6781 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6782 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6783
6784 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6785 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6786
6787 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6788 little-endian MIPS.
6789 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6790
6791 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6792 [Richard Levitte]
6793
6794 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6795
6796 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6797 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6798 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6799 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6800 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6801 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6802 to traverse all of 'state'.
6803
6804 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6805 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6806 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6807
6808 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6809 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6810
6811 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6812 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6813 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6814 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6815 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6816 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6817 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6818 further strengthens the PRNG.
6819 [Bodo Moeller]
6820
6821 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6822 [Andy Polyakov]
6823
6824 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6825 an error message in this case.
6826 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6827
6828 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6829 [Steve Henson]
6830
6831 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6832 positive and less than q.
6833 [Bodo Moeller]
6834
6835 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6836 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6837 that itself.
6838 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6839
6840 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6841 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6842 [Bodo Moeller]
6843
6844 *) Fix OAEP check.
6845 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6846
6847 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6848 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6849 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6850 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6851 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6852 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6853 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6854 paper.)
6855
6856 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6857 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6858 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6859 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6860
6861 Both problems are now fixed.
6862 [Bodo Moeller]
6863
6864 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6865 (previously it was 1024).
6866 [Bodo Moeller]
6867
6868 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6869 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6870 [Steve Henson]
6871
6872 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6873 [Steve Henson]
6874
6875 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6876 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6877 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6878 [Steve Henson]
6879
6880 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6881 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6882 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6883 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6884 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6885 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6886 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6887 environment variables.
6888
6889 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6890 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6891 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6892 [Bodo Moeller]
6893
6894 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6895 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6896 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6897 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6898 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6899 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6900 [Bodo Moeller]
6901
6902 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6903 versions of 'test'.
6904 [Bodo Moeller]
6905
6906 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6907
6908 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6909 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6910
6911 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6912 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6913 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6914 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6915 CygWin.
6916 [Richard Levitte]
6917
6918 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6919 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6920 amount of data available.
6921 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6922 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6923
6924 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6925 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6926 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6927 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6928 [Bodo Moeller]
6929
6930 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6931 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6932 and UnixWare.
6933 [Richard Levitte]
6934
6935 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6936 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6937 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6938 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6939 [Ulf Moeller]
6940
6941 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6942 [Andy Polyakov]
6943
6944 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6945 [Richard Levitte]
6946
6947 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6948 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6949 [Steve Henson]
6950 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6951
6952 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6953 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6954 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6955 (but broken) behaviour.
6956 [Steve Henson]
6957
6958 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6959 it when found.
6960 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6961
6962 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6963 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6964 [Bodo Moeller]
6965
6966 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6967 did not exist.
6968 [Bodo Moeller]
6969
6970 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6971 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6972
6973 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6974 [Richard Levitte]
6975
6976 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6977 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6978 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6979
6980 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6981 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6982 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6983 [Steve Henson]
6984
6985 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6986 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6987 [Ulf Moeller]
6988
6989 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6990 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6991
6992 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6993
6994 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6995
6996 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6997 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6998 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6999 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7000 [Bodo Moeller]
7001
7002 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7003 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7004
7005 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7006 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7007 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7008
7009 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7010 was empty.
7011 [Steve Henson]
7012 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7013
7014 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7015 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7016 but the code is actually correct.
7017 [Steve Henson]
7018
7019 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7020 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7021 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7022 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7023 and leaves the highest bit random.
7024 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7025
7026 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7027 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7028 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7029 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7030 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7031 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7032 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7033 [Bodo Moeller]
7034
7035 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7036 [Ulf Moeller]
7037
7038 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7039 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7040 [Steve Henson]
7041
7042 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7043 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7044 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7045 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7046 headers.
7047 [Richard Levitte]
7048
7049 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7050 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7051 and break the signature.
7052 [Steve Henson]
7053 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7054
7055 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7056 DH ciphersuites.
7057 [Steve Henson]
7058
7059 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7060 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7061 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7062 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7063 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7064 [Bodo Moeller]
7065
7066 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7067 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7068
7069 *) ./config script fixes.
7070 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7071
7072 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7073 [Bodo Moeller]
7074
7075 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7076 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7077 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7078 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7079 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7080
7081 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7082 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7083 [Bodo Moeller]
7084
7085 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7086 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7087 [Steve Henson]
7088
7089 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7090 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7091 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7092 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7093
7094 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7095 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7096
7097 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7098 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7099 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7100 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7101 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7102
7103 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7104 [Bodo Moeller]
7105
7106 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7107 [Ulf Möller]
7108
7109 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7110 [Ulf Möller]
7111
7112 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7113 [Bodo Moeller]
7114
7115 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7116 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7117 [Bodo Moeller]
7118
7119 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7120 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7121 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7122 result of the server certificate verification.)
7123 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7124
7125 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7126 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7127 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7128 [Bodo Moeller]
7129
7130 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7131 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7132 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7133 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7134 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7135 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7136 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7137 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7138 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7139 [Bodo Moeller]
7140
7141 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7142 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7143 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7144 happening the other way round.
7145 [Geoff Thorpe]
7146
7147 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7148 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7149 [Bodo Moeller]
7150
7151 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7152 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7153 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7154 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7155 [Richard Levitte]
7156
7157 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7158 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7159
7160 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7161
7162 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7163 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7164 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7165 that.
7166
7167 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7168
7169 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7170
7171 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7172 static ones.
7173 [Richard Levitte]
7174
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00007175 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7176
7177 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7178 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7179 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7180 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7181 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7182
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00007183 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7184 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7185 matter what.
7186 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00007187
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00007188 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7189 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7190
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00007191 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00007192
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00007193 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7194 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7195 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7196 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7197 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00007198 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00007199 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7200 by the Finished messages.
7201 [Bodo Moeller]
7202
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00007203 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7204 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7205
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00007206 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7207 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7208 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7209 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7210 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7211 appropriately.
7212 [Steve Henson]
7213
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00007214 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7215 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7216 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7217 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7218 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7219 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7220 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7221 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7222 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7223 together.
7224 [Steve Henson]
7225
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00007226 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7227 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7228 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7229 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7230
7231 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7232 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7233 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7234 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7235 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7236 the answer.
7237
7238 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7239 been tested well enough.
7240 [Richard Levitte]
7241
Bodo Möllerfe035192000-09-19 23:25:00 +00007242 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00007243 it can return incorrect results.
Bodo Möllercb1fbf82000-09-19 23:06:14 +00007244 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7245 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00007246 [Bodo Moeller]
7247
Dr. Stephen Henson730e37e2000-09-18 12:30:57 +00007248 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7249 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7250 include zero length content when signing messages.
7251 [Steve Henson]
7252
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00007253 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7254 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00007255 [Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00007256
Richard Levitte0e05f542000-09-15 21:22:50 +00007257 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7258 [Richard Levitte]
7259
Ulf Möller1d84fd62000-09-14 18:37:53 +00007260 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7261 wrong sign.
7262 [Ulf Möller]
7263
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00007264 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7265 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7266 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7267 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7268 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7269 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7270 [Richard Levitte]
7271
Richard Levittecc995262000-09-14 13:11:56 +00007272 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7273 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7274
Richard Levitte72660f52000-09-14 12:48:48 +00007275 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7276 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7277
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00007278 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7279 random number < q in the DSA library.
Ulf Möller523d7782000-09-13 02:01:35 +00007280 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00007281
Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00007282 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7283 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7284 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7285 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7286 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7287 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7288 just makes things more complicated.)
7289 [Bodo Moeller]
7290
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00007291 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7292 from EGD.
7293 [Ben Laurie]
7294
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +00007295 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7296 work better on such systems.
7297 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7298
Dr. Stephen Henson84b65342000-09-07 23:14:26 +00007299 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7300 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7301 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7302 [Steve Henson]
7303
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +00007304 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7305 if there was more than one signature.
7306 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7307
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +00007308 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7309 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7310 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7311 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7312 [Richard Levitte]
7313
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007314 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7315 rather than always using the current time.
7316 [Steve Henson]
7317
7318 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7319 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7320 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7321 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7322 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7323 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007324
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007325 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7326 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007327
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007328 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007329
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007330 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7331 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7332 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7333 the same hash value.
7334
7335 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7336 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7337 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7338 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007339
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007340 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7341 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007342
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007343 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7344 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7345 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7346 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7347 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7348 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7349 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007350
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007351 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7352
7353 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7354 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7355 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7356 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7357 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7358 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7359 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7360 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7361
7362 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7363 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7364
7365 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7366 to customise the verify behaviour.

Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007368
Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00007369 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7370 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7371 [Steve Henson]
7372
7373 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7374 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7375 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7376 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7377 request is improperly encoded.
7378 [Steve Henson]
7379
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00007380 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call

7382 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00007383

7392 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7393 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7394 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7395 [Bodo Moeller]
7396
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +00007397 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7398 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7399 BIO/fp routines also added.
7400 [Steve Henson]
7401
Bodo Möllera545c6f2000-09-01 09:54:25 +00007402 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.

7404
Ben Laurie7049ef52000-08-30 18:14:28 +00007405 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7406 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7407 demos/state_machine.
7408 [Ben Laurie]
7409
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00007410 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7411 generation and verification.
7412 [Steve Henson]
7413
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00007414 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7415 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7416 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7417 encode and decode it manually.
7418 [Steve Henson]
7419
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00007420 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c

7422 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7423
7424 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7425 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7426 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7427 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7428
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00007429 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7430 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7431 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7432 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7433 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7434 [Steve Henson]
7435
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00007436 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7437 [Richard Levitte]
7438
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00007439 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7440 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7441 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7442
7443 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7444 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7445 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7446 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7447 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7448 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7449 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7450 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7451
7452 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7453 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7454
7455 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7456
7457 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7458 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7459 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7460
7461 [Richard Levitte]
7462
Richard Levitte368f8552000-08-17 10:25:46 +00007463 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7464 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7465 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7466 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7467 [Richard Levitte]
7468
Richard Levitte30094582000-08-14 14:05:53 +00007469 *) MD4 implemented.

Richard Levitte88364bc2000-08-11 19:43:20 +00007472 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7473 [Richard Levitte]
7474
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00007475 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7476 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7477 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7478 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7479 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7480 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7481 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7482 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7483 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7484 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7485 short or long names are found.
7486 [Steve Henson]
7487
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00007488 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.

Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00007490
Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00007491 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7492 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7493 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7494 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7495
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00007496 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7497 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7498 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7499 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7500 [Bodo Moeller]
7501
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00007502 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7503 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7504 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7505 [Richard Levitte]
7506
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00007507 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7508 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7509 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7510 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7511 to allow the various flags to be set.
7512 [Steve Henson]
7513
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00007514 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7515 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7516 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7517 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7518 dates to be checked.
7519 [Steve Henson]
7520
7521 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7522 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7523 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7524 [Steve Henson]
7525
7526 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7527 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7528 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7529 [Steve Henson]
7530
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +00007531 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7532 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7533 [Bodo Moeller]
7534
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +00007535 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7536 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7537 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7538 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7539 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
Richard Levitte6bc847e2001-08-10 15:26:21 +00007540 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.

7542
Ulf Möllerc0722722000-07-19 21:35:35 +00007543 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7544 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7545 Random Numbers.
7546 [Ulf Möller]
7547
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd13f0e2000-07-12 23:55:30 +00007548 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7549 DSA key.
7550 [Steve Henson]
7551
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00007552 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7553 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7554 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7555 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7556 form signing output easier to verify.
7557 [Steve Henson]
7558
7559 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7560 [Steve Henson]
7561
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00007562 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7563 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7564 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7565 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7566 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7567 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7568 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7569 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7570 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7571 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7572 [Steve Henson]
7573
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00007574 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7575
7576 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7577 the syntax given in objects.README.
7578 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7579 obj_mac.h.
7580 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7581 obj_mac.h.
7582
7583 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7584 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7585 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7586 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7587 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7588 consistent name changes.
7589 [Richard Levitte]
7590
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00007591 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7592 [Bodo Moeller]
7593
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00007594 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00007595 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7596 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7597 environment variable, or the default random state file.

7599
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00007600 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7601 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7602 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7603 of safestack.h .
7604 [Steve Henson]
7605
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00007606 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7607 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7608 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7609 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7610 [Steve Henson]
7611
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00007612 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7613 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7614 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7615 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7616 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7617 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7618 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7619 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7620 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00007621 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7622 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.

7624
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00007625 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7626 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7627 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02007628 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00007629 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7630 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7631 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7632 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7633 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7634 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7635 [Steve Henson]
7636
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00007637 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7638 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7639 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7640 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7641
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00007642 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7643 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7644 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7645 omit any duplicate addresses.
7646 [Steve Henson]
7647
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00007648 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7649 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7650 [Bodo Moeller]
7651
7652 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7653 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7654 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7655 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7656 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7657 [Bodo Moeller]
7658
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00007659 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other

7665 [Richard Levitte]
7666
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00007667 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7668 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).

7673
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00007674 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7675 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7676 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7677 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7678 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7679 approach.
7680 [Geoff Thorpe]
7681
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00007682 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7683 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7684 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7685 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7686 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7687 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7688 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7689 [Geoff Thorpe]
7690
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00007691 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7692 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7693 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7694 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7695 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7696 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7697 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7698 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7699 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7700 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7701 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7702 [Bodo Moeller]
7703
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00007704 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7705 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7706 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7707 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7708 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7709
7710 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7711 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7712 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7713 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7714 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7715
7716 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7717 ciphers.
7718
7719 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00007720 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7721 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7722 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7723
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00007724 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7725
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00007726 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7727 of macros.
7728
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00007729 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7730 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7731 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7732 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00007733
7734 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7735 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7736 any installed hardware versions can.

7738
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007739 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7740 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7741 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version

7743 [Bodo Moeller]
7744
7745 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7746 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7747 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with

Dr. Stephen Hensonb4b41f42000-05-24 13:09:59 +00007751 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7752 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7753 [Steve Henson]
7754
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00007755 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7756 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7757 [Richard Levitte]
7758
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00007759 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7760 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7761 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7762 features.
7763 [Steve Henson]
7764
Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00007765 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.

Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00007767
Dr. Stephen Henson0cb957a2000-05-04 23:03:49 +00007768 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7769 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7770 but no ssl client purpose.
7771 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7772
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00007773 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7774 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7775 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7776 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7777 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7778 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7779 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7780 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7781 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7782 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7783 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7784 [Steve Henson]
7785
Bodo Möller316e6a62000-05-02 20:29:03 +00007786 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7787 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7788 be obtained from the error queue.
7789 [Bodo Moeller]
7790
Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00007791 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7792 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7793 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7794 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7795 [Bodo Moeller]
7796
Ulf Möller39736282000-04-27 15:06:26 +00007797 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7798 [Ulf Möller]
7799
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00007800 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7801 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7802 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7803 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7804 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7805 [Geoff Thorpe]
7806
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00007807 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7808 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7809 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7810 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7811 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7812 [Geoff Thorpe]
7813
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00007814 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7815 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7816 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7817 may not be NULL.
7818 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7819
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007820 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7821 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7822 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7823 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7824 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7825 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7826 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7827 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7828 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7829 or "the configuration storage API"...
7830
7831 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7832
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007833 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7834 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007835
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007836 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007837
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007838 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007839
7840 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7841 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7842 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7843 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7844 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7845 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7846 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7847
7848 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7849 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7850 [Richard Levitte]
7851
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00007852 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7853 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7854 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7855 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7856 [Bodo Moeller]
7857
Geoff Thorpe6ef4d9d2000-04-04 22:49:27 +00007858 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7859 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7860 them in a portable way.
7861 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]

Richard Levitte5e615802000-04-01 11:15:15 +00007863 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7864
7865 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
Bodo Möller865874f2000-02-28 18:03:16 +00007866
Bodo Möllercf194c12000-03-30 08:12:35 +00007867 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7868 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7869
Bodo Möller3bc90f22000-03-27 18:10:08 +00007870 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7871 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7872 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7873 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7874
Dr. Stephen Hensonb475baf2000-03-27 00:53:27 +00007875 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7876 was larger than the MD block size.
7877 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7878
Dr. Stephen Hensone77066e2000-03-22 13:50:23 +00007879 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7880 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7881 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7882 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7883 components.

7885
Ulf Möller7af48162000-03-19 02:06:37 +00007886 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7887 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7888 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7889
Dr. Stephen Henson80870562000-03-14 03:29:57 +00007890 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7891 discouraged.
7892 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7893
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00007894 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7895 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00007896 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00007897 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00007898 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7899 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7900
7901 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7902 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00007903
7904 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7905 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)

7907
Bodo Möller65b002f2000-03-13 19:24:39 +00007908 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7909 [Bodo Moeller]
7910
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00007911 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7912 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7913 its own key.
7914 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7915 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02007916 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7917 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00007918 [Bodo Moeller]
7919
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00007920 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7921 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7922 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7923 does not suppress any output.
7924 [Richard Levitte]
7925
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00007926 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00007927 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7928 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7929 with all the associated security issues.
7930
7931 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7932 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7933 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7934 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7935 use the value in the default purpose.
7936 [Steve Henson]
7937
Dr. Stephen Henson48fe0ee2000-03-07 01:03:33 +00007938 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7939 and fix a memory leak.
7940 [Steve Henson]
7941
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00007942 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7943 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02007944 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00007945 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7946 [Bodo Moeller]
7947
Bodo Möller0a150c52000-03-04 01:36:53 +00007948 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7949 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7950 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7951 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7952 [Bodo Moeller]
7953
Bodo Möller41918452000-03-03 22:18:19 +00007954 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7955 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7956 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7957 [Bodo Moeller]
7958
7959 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7960 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7961 [Bodo Moeller]
7962
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00007963 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7964 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7965 which was free.
7966 [Steve Henson]
7967
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00007968 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7969 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7970 [Bodo Moeller]
7971
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00007972 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7973 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7974 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7975 [Bodo Moeller]
7976
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00007977 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7978 number generation fails.
7979 [Bodo Moeller]
7980
Bodo Möller55f7d652000-03-01 07:57:25 +00007981 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7982 [Bodo Moeller]
7983
Ralf S. Engelschall010712f2000-02-29 15:29:02 +00007984 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64

7986
Ulf Möller2da0c112000-02-28 19:16:41 +00007987 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7988 [Ulf Möller]

Richard Levitte74cdf6f2000-02-28 11:59:02 +00007996 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00007997
Dr. Stephen Henson82b93182000-02-28 14:11:19 +00007998 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7999 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8000 [Steve Henson]
8001
Dr. Stephen Henson587bb0e2000-02-27 17:34:30 +00008002 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.

8004
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00008005 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
Andy Polyakova5770be2000-02-27 02:34:37 +00008006 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00008007 [Ulf Möller]
8008
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00008009 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8010 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8011 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8012 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8013 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8014 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8015
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00008016 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8017 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8018 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8019 for example.
8020 [Steve Henson]
8021
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00008022 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8023 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8024 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8025 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8026 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8027 counter, some don't.)
8028 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8029 counters or duplicate objects.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc7cb16a2000-02-26 01:55:33 +00008030 [Steve Henson]
8031
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00008032 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8033 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8034 [Steve Henson]
8035
Ulf Möller505b5a02000-02-24 22:57:42 +00008036 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().

8039
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00008040 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8041 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8042 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8043 or -rand.
8044 [Ulf Möller]
8045
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00008046 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8047 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8048 [Steve Henson]
8049
8050 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8051 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8052 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8053 cipher list.
8054 [Steve Henson]
8055
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00008056 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8057 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8058 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8059 [Steve Henson]
8060
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00008061 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8062 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8063 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8064 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8065 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8066 should work without changes.

Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00008078
Bodo Möllerb35e9052000-02-20 23:04:06 +00008079 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8080 record layer.
8081 [Bodo Moeller]
8082
Dr. Stephen Hensond754b382000-02-20 18:27:23 +00008083 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8084 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8085 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8086 [Steve Henson]
8087
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00008088 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8089 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8090 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8091 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8092 [Steve Henson]
8093
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00008094 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8095 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8096 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8097 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8098 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8099 is prompted for as usual.
8100 [Steve Henson]
8101
Ben Lauriebd03b992000-02-16 22:15:39 +00008102 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8103 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8104 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8105 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8106
Dr. Stephen Hensonde469ef2000-02-15 14:19:44 +00008107 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8108 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8109 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8110 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8111 [Steve Henson]
8112
Andy Polyakovbcba6cc2000-02-12 23:33:01 +00008113 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8114 [Andy Polyakov]
8115
Dr. Stephen Hensond13e4eb2000-02-12 03:03:04 +00008116 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8117 of seed file.
8118 [Steve Henson]
8119
Bodo Möller3ebf0be2000-02-11 17:18:50 +00008120 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
Bodo Möllerbb325c72000-02-10 21:50:52 +00008121 [Bodo Moeller]
8122
Dr. Stephen Hensonf07fb9b2000-02-08 01:34:59 +00008123 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8124 [Steve Henson]
8125
Ulf Möllercae55bf2000-02-06 15:56:59 +00008126 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8127 bits.
8128 [Ulf Möller]
8129
8130 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8131 [Ulf Möller]
8132
Andy Polyakov0fad6cb2000-02-06 11:15:20 +00008133 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8134 [Andy Polyakov]
8135
Ulf Möller4a6222d2000-02-06 00:25:39 +00008136 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8137 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8138 [Ulf Möller]
8139
Dr. Stephen Henson66430202000-02-05 21:07:56 +00008140 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8141 options to produce them.
8142 [Steve Henson]
8143
Ulf Möller9b141122000-02-05 14:17:32 +00008144 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8145 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8146 [Ulf Möller]
8147
8148 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8149 for p == 0.
8150 [Ulf Möller]
8151
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00008152 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8153 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8154 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8155 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8156 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8157 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8158 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8159 [Steve Henson]
8160
Dr. Stephen Henson82fc1d92000-02-03 02:56:48 +00008161 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8162 [Steve Henson]
8163
Bodo Möllere74231e2000-02-02 21:20:44 +00008164 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8165 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8166 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8167 [Bodo Moeller]
8168
Bodo Möller2c5fe5b2000-02-01 07:50:42 +00008169 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
Ulf Möller8efb6012000-02-01 02:21:16 +00008170 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8171
Ulf Möller98d0b2e2000-01-30 23:34:33 +00008172 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8173 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8174 [Ulf Möller]
8175
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00008176 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8177 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8178 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8179 has already seen).
8180 [Bodo Moeller]
8181
8182 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8183 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8184
8185 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8186 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8187 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8188 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8189 generation becomes much faster.
8190
8191 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00008192 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8193 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8194 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8195 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8196 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8197 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8198 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8199 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8200 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00008201 [Bodo Moeller]
8202
Bodo Möller7865b872000-01-30 02:40:38 +00008203 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00008204 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8205 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8206 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00008207 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8208 trial division stage.
8209 [Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00008210
Dr. Stephen Hensone1314b52000-01-29 00:00:26 +00008211 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8212 as ASN1_TIME.
8213 [Steve Henson]
8214
Dr. Stephen Henson90644dd2000-01-28 01:35:31 +00008215 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8216 [Steve Henson]
8217
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00008218 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8219 [Ulf Möller]
Ralf S. Engelschalld91e2011999-08-09 11:14:08 +00008220
Ulf Möllere93f9a32000-01-27 01:50:42 +00008221 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8222 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8223 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8224 the comments.
8225 [Ulf Möller]
8226
Bodo Möller2557eae2000-01-24 17:57:56 +00008227 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8228 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8229 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8230 [Bodo Moeller]
8231
Bodo Möllera46faa22000-01-24 16:02:29 +00008232 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8233 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8234 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8235 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
Bodo Mölleraabbb742000-01-24 14:42:26 +00008236
Dr. Stephen Hensondd9d2332000-01-23 23:41:49 +00008237 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8238 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8239 [Steve Henson]
8240
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00008241 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8242 [Ulf Möller]
8243
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00008244 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8245 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8246 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8247 Rabin-Miller iterations.
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00008248 [Ulf Möller]
8249
8250 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8251 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8252 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8253 [Ulf Möller]
8254
Dr. Stephen Henson09483c52000-01-22 13:58:29 +00008255 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8256 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8257 (instead of parameters) in future.
8258 [Steve Henson]
8259
Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00008260 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8261 when a new cipher list is set.
8262 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson018e57c2000-01-22 03:17:06 +00008263
Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00008264 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8265 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8266 wrong.
8267
8268 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8269 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8270 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8271
8272 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8273 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8274 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8275 an error is flagged.
8276
8277 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8278 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8279 the readability was also increased :-)
8280 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
Dr. Stephen Henson09483c52000-01-22 13:58:29 +00008281
Dr. Stephen Henson81004902000-01-21 02:42:14 +00008282 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8283 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8284 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8285 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8286 as the root CA.
8287 [Steve Henson]
8288
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00008289 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8290 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8291 [Steve Henson]
8292
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00008293 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8294 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8295 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8296 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8297 instead.
8298
8299 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8300 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8301 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8302 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00008303 because they handle more complex structures.)
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00008304 [Steve Henson]
8305
Ulf Mölleraa82db42000-01-16 21:10:00 +00008306 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8307 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8308 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8309 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8310
Ulf Möllereb952082000-01-13 20:59:17 +00008311 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00008312 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8313 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00008314 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00008315 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8316 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8317 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).

8319
Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00008320 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8321 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00008322 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00008323 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00008324 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.

8326
Bodo Möller3cc6cde2000-01-11 08:09:27 +00008327 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
Bodo Möllerc51ae172000-01-11 01:07:26 +00008328 [Bodo Moeller]
8329
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00008330 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8331 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00008332 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8333 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8334 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8335 to use this.
8336
8337 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8338 code.
8339 [Steve Henson]
8340
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00008341 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8342 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8343 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8344 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8345 [Steve Henson]
8346
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008347 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8348 [Ulf Möller]
8349
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00008350 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8351 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8352 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8353 international characters are used.
8354
8355 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8356 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8357 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8358 in ASN1 order.
8359 [Steve Henson]
8360
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00008361 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8362 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8363 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8364 request.
8365
8366 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8367 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8368 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8369 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008370 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00008371 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8372
8373 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8374 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8375 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008376 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00008377
8378 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8379 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8380 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8381 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8382 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8383 types at all.
8384 [Steve Henson]
8385
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00008386 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8387 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8388 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8389 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8390 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8391
8392 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8393 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8394 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8395 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
Bodo Möllerf2d9a322000-01-06 00:24:24 +00008396 [Bodo Moeller]
8397
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00008398 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8399 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008400 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00008401 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8402 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8403 SHA1.
8404 [Andy Polyakov]
8405
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00008406 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8407 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8408 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8409 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8410 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8411 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8412 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8413 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8414
8415 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8416 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00008417 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00008418 [Steve Henson]
8419
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00008420 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8421 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8422 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8423 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8424 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8425 support to pkcs8 application.
8426 [Steve Henson]
8427
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00008428 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8429 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8430 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8431 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8432 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8433 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8434 [Bodo Moeller]
8435
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00008436 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8437 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8438 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8439 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8440 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8441 consistency.
8442 [Bodo Moeller]
8443
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00008444 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8445 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8446 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8447 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8448 example.
8449 [Steve Henson]
8450
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00008451 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8452 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8453 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8454 and any application specific purposes.
8455
8456 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8457 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8458 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8459 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00008460 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00008461 if the certificate is self signed.
8462 [Steve Henson]
8463
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00008464 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8465 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8466 [Steve Henson]
8467
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00008468 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8469 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00008470 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00008471 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8472 [Steve Henson]
8473
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00008474 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8475 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8476 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8477 Update documentation.
8478 [Steve Henson]
8479
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00008480 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8481 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008482 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00008483 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8484 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8485 [Steve Henson]
8486
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00008487 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8488 for details.
8489 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8490
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00008491 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8492 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8493 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00008494 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8495 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8496 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00008497 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8498 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8499 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8500 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00008501
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008502 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8503
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00008504 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8505 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8506 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8507 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8508 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008509
8510 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8511 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00008512 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8513 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8514 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8515 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8516 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8517 request additional information:
8518 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8519 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008520
8521 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8522 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8523 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8524 options.
8525
8526 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8527 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8528
8529 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8530 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8531 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8532
8533 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00008534 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00008535
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00008536 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8537 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8538 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8539 algorithm.
8540 [Steve Henson]
8541
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00008542 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8543 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8544 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8545
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00008546 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8547 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8548 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8549 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8550 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8551 included in OpenSSL.
8552 [Steve Henson]
8553
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00008554 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8555 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8556 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8557 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8558 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8559 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8560 [Bodo Moeller]
8561
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00008562 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8563 PKCS12 structure.
8564 [Steve Henson]
8565
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00008566 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8567 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8568 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8569 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8570 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8571 structure.
8572 [Steve Henson]
8573
8574 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8575 need initialising.
8576 [Steve Henson]
8577
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00008578 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8579 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8580 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8581 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8582 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8583 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8584 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8585 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8586 be maintained manually.
8587
8588 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8589 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8590 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8591 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8592 work because people forget to call this function]
8593 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8594 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8595 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8596 [Steve Henson]
8597
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00008598 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8599 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8600 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8601 should be discouraged from doing it.
8602 [Ben Laurie]
8603
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00008604 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8605 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8606 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8607 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8608 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8609 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8610 [Steve Henson]
8611
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008612 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8613 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8614 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008615
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008616 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00008617 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8618 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008619
8620 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8621 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8622 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8623 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8624 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8625 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00008626
8627 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8628 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8629 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008630
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00008631 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8632 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8633 and vice versa.
8634
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008635 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8636 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8637 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8638 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00008639 [Steve Henson]
8640
8641 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00008642 [Steve Henson]
8643
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008644 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8645 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8646 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8647 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8648 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008649 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008650 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8651 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8652 keys so we should be OK.
8653
8654 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8655 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8656 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8657 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8658 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8659 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008660 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008661
8662 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8663 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8664 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8665
8666 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00008667 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8668 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8669 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8670 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8671 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8672 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008673 [Steve Henson]
8674
8675 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8676 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8677 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8678 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8679 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8680 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8681 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8682 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8683 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8684 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8685 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8686 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8687 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8688 [Steve Henson]
8689
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00008690 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8691 [Steve Henson]
8692
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00008693 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8694 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8695 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8696 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8697 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8698 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8699 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8700 openssl verify ss.pem
8701 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8702 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8703 is OK.
8704 [Steve Henson]
8705
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00008706 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8707 (and add it to external session representation).
8708 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8709 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8710 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8711 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8712 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8713 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8714 security holes.

8724 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8725 [Steve Henson]
8726
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00008727 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8728 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8729 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8730 code.

Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00008733 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8734 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
Mark J. Coxb7cfcfb1999-11-15 16:31:31 +00008735 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8736
Dr. Stephen Henson06556a11999-11-14 23:10:50 +00008737 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8738 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8739 certificate auxiliary information.
8740 [Steve Henson]
8741
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00008742 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8743 the 'enc' command.
8744 [Steve Henson]
8745
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00008746 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8747 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00008748 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8749 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8750 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8751 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8752 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00008753 [Richard Levitte]
8754
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00008755 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
Dr. Stephen Henson954ef7e1999-11-12 01:42:25 +00008756 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8757 [Steve Henson]
8758
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00008759 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8760 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8761 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8762 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8763 [Steve Henson]
8764
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00008765 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8766 [Steve Henson]
8767
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00008768 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8769 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8770 [Steve Henson]
8771
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00008772 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8773 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8774 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8775 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8776 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008777 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00008778 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8779 using the new 'x509' options.
8780
8781 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8782 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8783 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8784 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8785 for all purposes.
8786 [Steve Henson]
8787
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00008788 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8789 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8790 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8791 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8792 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
Mark J. Coxce2c95b1999-11-03 14:10:10 +00008793 [Mark Cox]
8794
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00008795 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8796 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8797 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8798 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8799 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008800 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00008801 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8802 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8803 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8804 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8805 [Steve Henson]
8806
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00008807 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8808 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8809 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8810 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8811 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8812 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8813 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8814 [Steve Henson]
8815
8816 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8817 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8818 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8819 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8820 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8821 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8822 openssl.cnf for more info.
8823 [Steve Henson]
8824
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00008825 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00008826 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00008827 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8828 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8829 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8830 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8831 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8832 md should be large enough anyway.
8833 [Bodo Moeller]
8834
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008835 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8836 for handling the random seed file.
8837
8838 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8839 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008840 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008841 s_client,
8842 s_server,
8843 x509 (when signing).
8844 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8845 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00008846 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008847
8848 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008849 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008850 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008851 that support '-rand'.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008852 [Bodo Moeller]
8853
8854 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8855 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8856 [Bodo Moeller]
8857
8858 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8859 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8860 [Bill Perry]
8861
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00008862 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8863 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8864 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8865 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8866 is suitable.
8867 [Steve Henson]
8868
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00008869 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8870 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8871 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8872 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8873 [Steve Henson]
8874
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00008875 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8876 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8877 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8878 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8879 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8880 print out all the purposes.
8881 [Steve Henson]
8882
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00008883 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8884 functions.
8885 [Steve Henson]
8886
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00008887 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8888 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8889 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8890 single function call.
8891 [Steve Henson]
8892
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00008893 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8894 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8895 [Andy Polyakov]
8896
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00008897 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8898 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8899 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8900 [Steve Henson]
8901
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00008902 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8903 when producing the local key id.
8904 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8905
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00008906 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8907 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8908 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8909 "server.pem".
8910 [Steve Henson]
8911
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00008912 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8913 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8914 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8915 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8916 [Steve Henson]
8917
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00008918 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8919 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8920 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8921 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8922
8923 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8924 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8925 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8926 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8927
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00008928 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8929 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8930 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8931 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8932 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8933 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8934 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8935 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8936 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8937 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8938 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8939 trivial: move one line.
8940 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8941
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00008942 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8943 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8944 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8945 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8946 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8947 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8948 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8949 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8950 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8951 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8952 with an event loop for example.
8953 [Steve Henson]
8954
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00008955 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8956 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8957 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8958 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8959 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8960 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8961 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8962 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8963 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8964 [Steve Henson]
8965
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00008966 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8967 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8968 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008969 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00008970 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8971 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8972 [Steve Henson]
8973
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00008974 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8975 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8976 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8977 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8978
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00008979 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8980 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8981 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8982 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8983 key generation.
8984 [Steve Henson]
8985
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00008986 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
Bodo Möller6f7af151999-09-10 14:03:21 +00008987 (still largely untested)
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00008988 [Bodo Moeller]
8989
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00008990 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8991 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8992 [Steve Henson]
8993
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00008994 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8995 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8996 [Steve Henson]
8997
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00008998 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8999 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9000 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9001 [Bodo Moeller]
9002
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00009003 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9004 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9005 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9006 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9007 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9008 [Steve Henson]
9009
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00009010 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9011 [Andy Polyakov]
9012
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00009013 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9014 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9015 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9016 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9017 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9018 in ca.
9019 [Steve Henson]
9020
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00009021 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9022 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9023 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9024 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9025 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9026 [Steve Henson]
9027
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00009028 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9029 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9030 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9031 are otherwise ignored at present.
9032 [Steve Henson]
9033
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00009034 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00009035 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00009036 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9037 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9038 copied until the next read.
9039 [Steve Henson]
9040
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00009041 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9042 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9043 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9044 [Steve Henson]
9045
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00009046 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9047 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9048 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9049 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9050 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9051 associated functions.
9052 [Steve Henson]
9053
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00009054 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9055 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9056 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9057 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9058 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9059 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9060 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9061 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9062 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00009063 memory BIOs.

Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00009066 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9067 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9068 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,

9071
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00009072 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9073 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9074 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9075 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9076 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9077 functionality.
9078 [Steve Henson]
9079
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00009080 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9081 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9082 under Win32.
9083 [Steve Henson]
9084
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00009085 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00009086 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9087 extensions to be obtained and added.

Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00009094 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]

9100 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9101
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00009102 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9103 program.
9104 [Steve Henson]
9105
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00009106 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9107 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9108 DH parameters contain its length).
9109
9110 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9111 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9112 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9113 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9114 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9115 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9116 utter importance to use
9117 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9118 or
9119 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9120 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9121 attacks may become possible!
9122 [Bodo Moeller]
9123
9124 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9125 [Bodo Moeller]
9126
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00009127 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9128 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9129 [Steve Henson]
9130
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00009131 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9132 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9133 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9134 or long name.
9135 [Steve Henson]
9136
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00009137 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9138 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9139 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9140 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00009141 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9142 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9143 private key operations.

9145
Andy Polyakova0618e31999-07-25 15:13:49 +00009146 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9147 [Andy Polyakov]
9148
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00009149 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9150 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9151 to
9152 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9153 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9154 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9155 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9156 the password callback is called.
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00009157 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00009158
9159 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9160
9161 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9162 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9163 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9164 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9165 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9166 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9167 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00009168
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00009169 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9170 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9171 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00009172 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
Bodo Möller57119941999-07-29 12:57:23 +00009173 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9174 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).

Ulf Möller64344501999-07-16 00:50:45 +00009180 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9181 delete an unused file.
9182 [Ulf Möller]
9183
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00009184 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9185 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9186 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9187 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9188 [Steve Henson]
9189
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00009190 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9191 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9192 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9193 of an error.
9194 [Bodo Moeller]
9195
Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00009196 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check

9198 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9199
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00009200 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9201 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9202 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9203 comparison" warnings.
9204 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.

9210 [Steve Henson]
9211
Dr. Stephen Henson0ab8beb1999-07-11 12:30:55 +00009212 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9213 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9214
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00009215 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9216 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9217
9218 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9219 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9220 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9221
9222 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9223 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9224 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9225 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9226 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9227 this bug.

9229
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00009230 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9231 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00009232 Applications can use
9233 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9234 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9235 "off" is now the default.
9236 The library internally uses
9237 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9238 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9239 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9240
9241 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9242 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00009243
9244 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9245 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9246 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00009247
9248 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.

9253
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00009254 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9255 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9256 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00009257 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00009258
9259 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9260 a single record has been written.
9261 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9262 retries use the same buffer location.

9282
Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00009283 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9284 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9285 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9286 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9287 point to the end.

9290
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00009291 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9292 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9293 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9294 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9295 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9296 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).

Ben Laurie233bf731999-06-09 10:19:53 +00009381 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9382 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9383 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9384 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.

9388 [Ulf Möller]
9389
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00009390 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9391 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9392 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9393 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9394 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9395 of v2.0.
9396 [Steve Henson]
9397
Bodo Möllerd4443ed1999-06-07 13:34:25 +00009398 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00009402 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9403 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9404 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9405 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9406 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9407 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9408 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9409 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9410 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9411 [Steve Henson]
9412
Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00009413 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00009414 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9415 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9416 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9417 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9418 value doesn't matter.

Ulf Möllere14d4441999-05-20 01:43:07 +00009482 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9483 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9484 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9485
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00009486 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9487 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9488 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9489 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9490 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9491 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9492 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9493 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9494 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9495 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9496 [Steve Henson]
9497
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00009498 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9499 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9500 [Steve Henson]
9501
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00009502 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00009503 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00009504 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02009505 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00009506 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9507
9508 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9509 [Bodo Moeller]
9510
Dr. Stephen Henson84fa7041999-05-16 00:25:36 +00009511 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious

Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00009519 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion

9521 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9522 key elements as negative integers.

9534 [Steve Henson]
9535
Bodo Möllerb31b04d1999-05-11 07:43:16 +00009536 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9537 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9538 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9539 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9540 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9541 [Bodo Moeller]

9549 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9550
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00009551 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9552 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9553 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9554
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00009555 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9556 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9557 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9558 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9559 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9560 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9561 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9562 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9563 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9564
9565 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9566 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9567 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9568 does not influence s as it used to.
9569
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00009570 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00009571 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9572 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9573 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9574 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9575 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

9577
Dr. Stephen Hensonc8b41851999-05-09 16:39:11 +00009578 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9579 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9580 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing

9582 [Steve Henson]
9583
Dr. Stephen Hensone40b7ab1999-05-08 12:59:50 +00009584 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the

9587 and 'x509').
9588 [Steve Henson]
9589
9590 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the

9619 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9620
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00009621 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9622 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9623 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9624 DER-encoded.)

Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00009634 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9635 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error

Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00009685 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9686 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9687 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9688 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9689 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9690 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9691 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9692 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which

Ben Laurie49971381999-04-21 13:24:58 +00009714 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00009784 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9785 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9786 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9787 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9788 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9789 [Ben Laurie]
9790
Ralf S. Engelschallf9a25931999-04-12 11:45:14 +00009791 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9792 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9793 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9794 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.

9796
Ralf S. Engelschall2f0cd191999-04-12 10:36:16 +00009797 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9798 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9799 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9800 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9801

9805 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9806
Bodo Möllerfc8ee061999-04-11 02:49:35 +00009807 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9808 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9809 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9810 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9811 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9812 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9813 [Bodo Moeller]
9814
Bodo Möllerc7ac31e1999-04-09 20:54:25 +00009815 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when

9834 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9835 [Ulf Möller]
9836
Bodo Möller6d02d8e1999-03-31 12:06:30 +00009837 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and

9843 [Bodo Moeller]
9844

9847 [Steve Henson]
9848
Dr. Stephen Henson8d8c7261999-03-28 23:17:34 +00009849 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and

9852 [Steve Henson]
9853
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcefcb1999-03-28 17:46:10 +00009854 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and

9887 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9888 [Ben Laurie]
9889
9890 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9891 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9892 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9893 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.

9895
Ralf S. Engelschallafb23061999-03-20 13:04:12 +00009896 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9897 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9898 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL

9907 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9908
Ben Laurie29c0fcc1999-03-12 20:26:27 +00009909 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9910 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9911 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9912 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9913
Ben Lauriecadf1261999-03-12 19:58:43 +00009914 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9915 [Ben Laurie]
9916
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00009917 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9918 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9919 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9920 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9921 [Steve Henson]
9922
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00009923 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9924 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9925 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9926 [Steve Henson]
9927
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00009928 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9929 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9930 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9931 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9932 installed as `perl').

9946 [Ben Laurie]
9947
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00009948 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9949 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9950 is horrible: I feel ill....
9951 [Steve Henson]
9952
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00009953 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9954 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9955 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9956 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.

9961
Ralf S. Engelschallc0e538e1999-03-08 11:41:26 +00009962 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9963 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9964 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9965 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9966
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00009967 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9968 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9969 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9970 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9971 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9972 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9973 openssl_bio.xs.

Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00009990 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9991 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9992 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9993 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02009994 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00009995 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9996 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9997 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9998 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''

10001
Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +000010002 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10003 [Ben Laurie]
10004
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +000010005 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10006 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10007 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10008 for linking it into DSOs.
10009 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10010
Ben Laurief415fa31999-03-06 14:09:36 +000010011 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10012 Fixed.
10013 [Ben Laurie]
10014
Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +000010015 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10016 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10017 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10018 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10019 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10020 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10021
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +000010022 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10023 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10024 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10025 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10026 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10027 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10028 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10029
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +000010030 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10031 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10032 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10033 encryption.
10034 [Ben Laurie]
10035
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +000010036 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10037 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10038 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10039 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10040 [Steve Henson]
10041
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +000010042 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10043 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10044 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10045 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10046 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10047 field as blank.

10049
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +000010050 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10051 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10052 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10053 relationship to the OpenSSL project.

10055
Ralf S. Engelschalla06c6021999-03-04 07:54:01 +000010056 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10057 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.

10062
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +000010063 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10064 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10065 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10066 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10067 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10068 [Steve Henson]
10069
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +000010070 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10071 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10072 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10073 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10074 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +000010075 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10076 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10077 [Ben Laurie]
10078
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +000010079 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10080 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10081 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10082 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.

Ralf S. Engelschall74d7abc1999-02-27 12:17:40 +000010084
10085 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.

Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +000010088 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10089 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10090 [Steve Henson]
10091
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +000010092 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10093 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10094 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10095 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10096 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10097 (e.g. s_server).
10098 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10099 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10100 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10101 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10102 no way to reconfigure them.
10103 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10104 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10105 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10106 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10107 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10108 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10109
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +000010110 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10111 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10112 recognized by the users.
10113 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10114
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +000010115 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10116 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10117 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10118 already masked variable.

10120
Ralf S. Engelschalldef9f431999-02-25 10:54:27 +000010121 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10122 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10123
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +000010124 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10125 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10126 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

10128
Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +000010129 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10130 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10131 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10132
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +000010133 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10134 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10135 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10136 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10137 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10138 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10139 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10140 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10141 now, too.
10142 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10143
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +000010144 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10145 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10146 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10147
Dr. Stephen Hensona43aa731999-02-23 00:07:46 +000010148 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10149 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10150 config file.
10151 [Steve Henson]
10152
Ben Laurie0849d131999-02-22 21:21:08 +000010153 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).

10155
Ben Laurie06ab81f1999-02-21 20:03:24 +000010156 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10157 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10158 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher

10172 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10173 [Steve Henson]
10174
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +000010175 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private

10177 [Steve Henson]
10178
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +000010179 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10180 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10181 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10182 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10183 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10184 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.

10190
10191 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10192 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10193 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10194 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00

10222
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +000010223 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10224 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10225 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10226 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.

10228
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +000010229 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +000010254 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10255 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10256 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10257 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain

10265 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10266 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10267 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10268 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10269 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10270 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10271 the crypto/md/ stuff).

Dr. Stephen Henson92c046c1999-01-28 00:16:44 +000010313 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10314 [Steve Henson]
10315
Dr. Stephen Henson79dfa971999-01-29 23:34:19 +000010316 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10317 [Steve Henson]
10318
Dr. Stephen Hensona27598b1999-01-26 23:13:14 +000010319 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10320 [Steve Henson]
10321
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +000010322 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10323 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10324 [Steve Henson]
10325
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +000010326 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10327 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10328 CA extensions.
10329 [Steve Henson]
10330
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +000010331 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10332 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +000010333 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +000010334
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +020010335 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
Dr. Stephen Henson9aeaf1b1999-01-24 00:50:01 +000010336 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10337 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10338 [Steve Henson]
10339
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +000010340 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10341 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10342 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10343 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10344 properly to be processed.
10345 [Steve Henson]
10346
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +000010347 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10348 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10349 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10350 [Ben Laurie]
10351
Ben Laurieb13a1551999-01-19 19:18:20 +000010352 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10353 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10354
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +000010355 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10356 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10357 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10358 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10359 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10360 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10361 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10362 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10363 or delete all the .err files.
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +000010364 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +000010365
Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +000010366 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10367 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10368 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10369 to regenerate it if needed.
10370 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10371 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10372
10373 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10374 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10375
Dr. Stephen Hensonfdd3b641999-01-17 15:10:33 +000010376 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10377 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10378 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10379 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10380 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10381 [Steve Henson]
10382
Ben Lauriedabba111999-01-17 14:20:20 +000010383 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10384 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10385
Ben Laurie512d2221999-01-17 14:14:41 +000010386 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10387 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10388
Ben Laurie2c1ef381999-01-17 14:10:08 +000010389 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10390 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10391 error, but didn't set one).
10392 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10393
Ben Lauriec3ae9a41999-01-16 18:46:23 +000010394 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10395 [Ben Laurie]
10396
Dr. Stephen Hensonee13f9b1999-01-14 18:25:07 +000010397 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10398 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10399 [Steve Henson]
10400
Dr. Stephen Henson27eb6221999-01-14 18:21:57 +000010401 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10402 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10403
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +000010404 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10405 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10406 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10407 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10408 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10409 OID is not part of the table.
10410 [Steve Henson]
10411
Ben Lauriea6801a91999-01-10 20:36:02 +000010412 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10413 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10414 [Ben Laurie]
10415
Ben Laurie50acf461999-01-09 19:15:59 +000010416 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10417 [Ben Laurie]
10418
Dr. Stephen Henson7f9b7b01999-01-09 17:29:34 +000010419 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10420 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10421 was "1234").
10422 [Steve Henson]
10423
Ben Lauriee03ddfa1999-01-07 19:15:59 +000010424 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10425 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10426
Ben Laurie6fa89f91999-01-07 00:37:01 +000010427 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10428 NULL pointers.
10429 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10430
Ben Lauriec13d4791999-01-07 00:16:37 +000010431 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10432 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10433
Ben Lauriebc4deee1999-01-07 00:10:32 +000010434 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10435 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10436
Ben Laurie5b001151999-01-06 23:18:08 +000010437 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10438 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10439
Ben Laurief8c3c051999-01-06 22:53:34 +000010440 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10441 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10442 [Ben Laurie]
10443
Dr. Stephen Hensonad65ce71999-01-06 01:39:24 +000010444 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10445 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
Dr. Stephen Henson384c4791999-01-06 01:41:21 +000010446 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonad65ce71999-01-06 01:39:24 +000010447
Ben Lauriee416ad91999-01-04 21:43:32 +000010448 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10449 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10450
Ben Laurie4a18cdd1999-01-04 21:39:34 +000010451 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10452 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10453
Ben Lauriebb65e201999-01-04 20:11:31 +000010454 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10455 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10456
Ben Laurieb5e406f1999-01-04 19:55:12 +000010457 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10458 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10459
Ralf S. Engelschallcb0f35d1999-01-03 15:31:11 +000010460 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10461 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10462 unused in the certificate verification process.
10463 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10464
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcf6451999-01-03 01:08:33 +000010465 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
Dr. Stephen Hensonad65ce71999-01-06 01:39:24 +000010466 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcf6451999-01-03 01:08:33 +000010467 [Steve Henson]
10468
Ben Lauriecdbb8c21999-01-02 19:04:27 +000010469 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10470 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10471 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10472
Ralf S. Engelschall06d5b161999-01-02 12:59:33 +000010473 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10474 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10475 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10476 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.

Dr. Stephen Hensonc35f5491999-01-02 01:53:06 +000010479 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10480 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10481 [Steve Henson]
10482
Dr. Stephen Hensonebc828c1999-01-01 18:43:44 +000010483 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10484 [Steve Henson]
10485
Paul C. Sutton79e259e1999-01-01 14:04:07 +000010486 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.

10491
Ben Laurie6063b271998-12-31 17:11:46 +000010492 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10493 [Ben Laurie]
10494
10495 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10496 [Ben Laurie]
10497
10498 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10499 [Ben Laurie]
10500
stephen792a9001998-12-31 01:35:07 +000010501 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10502 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10503 other error libraries.
10504 [Steve Henson]
10505
10506 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10507 [Steve Henson]
10508
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +020010509 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
stephen792a9001998-12-31 01:35:07 +000010510 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10511 be read in.
10512 [Steve Henson]
10513
Ralf S. Engelschallce72df11998-12-30 23:07:32 +000010514 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10515 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10516 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10517 the new set of documenation files.
10518 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10519
Ben Laurie4098e891998-12-29 21:43:55 +000010520 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10521 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10522 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10523 number of arguments.
10524 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10525
10526 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10527 [Ben Laurie]
10528
Ben Laurie03f8b041998-12-29 17:22:31 +000010529 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10530 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
