Ralf S. Engelschall651d0af1998-12-22 15:04:48 +00003 _______________
4
Dr. Stephen Hensonaaf35f12009-03-30 11:31:50 +00005 Changes between 0.9.8k and 1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
Dr. Stephen Henson5f8f94a2009-04-28 22:10:54 +00007 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
8 be used on C++.
9 [Steve Henson]
10
Dr. Stephen Hensone5fa8642009-04-15 15:27:03 +000011 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
12 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
13 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
14 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
15 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
16 attempting to work them out.
17 [Steve Henson]
18
Dr. Stephen Henson22c98d42009-04-08 16:16:35 +000019 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
20 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
21 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
22 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
23 [Steve Henson]
24
Dr. Stephen Henson14023fe2009-04-03 11:45:19 +000025 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
26 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
27 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
28 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
29 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
30 [Steve Henson]
31
Dr. Stephen Hensonaaf35f12009-03-30 11:31:50 +000032 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
33 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
34 you can do:
35
36 openssl sha256 foo
37
38 as well as:
39
40 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
41
42 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
43
44 [Steve Henson]
Mark J. Cox3ff55e92006-09-28 13:18:43 +000045
Dr. Stephen Hensonb6af2c72009-03-17 15:38:34 +000046 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
47 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
48
Dr. Stephen Henson33ab2e32009-03-09 13:59:07 +000049 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
50 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
51
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2c99e22009-01-15 13:22:39 +000052 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
53 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
54 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
55 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
56 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
57 [Steve Henson]
58
Dr. Stephen Henson8125d9f2009-01-15 12:52:38 +000059 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
60 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
61 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
Dr. Stephen Henson363bd0b2009-01-11 15:56:32 +000064 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
65 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
66 [Steve Henson]
67
Dr. Stephen Henson12bf56c2008-11-15 17:18:12 +000068 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
69 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
70
Dr. Stephen Henson87d52462008-11-02 16:00:39 +000071 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
72 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
73 [Steve Henson]
74
Ben Laurie1ea64722008-10-14 08:10:52 +000075 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
76 [Ben Laurie]
77
Ben Lauriebabb3792008-10-12 14:32:47 +000078 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
79 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
80 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
Ben Laurie1ea64722008-10-14 08:10:52 +000081 CONF_VALUE.
82 [Ben Laurie]
Ben Lauriebabb3792008-10-12 14:32:47 +000083
Dr. Stephen Henson87d3a0c2008-10-07 22:55:27 +000084 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
85 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
86 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
87 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
88 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
89 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
90 [Steve Henson]
91
Dr. Stephen Hensond43c4492008-09-01 15:15:16 +000092 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
93 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
94
95 This work was sponsored by Google.
96 [Steve Henson]
97
Dr. Stephen Henson4b968392008-08-29 11:37:21 +000098 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
99 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
100 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
101 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
102 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
103 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
104 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
105 default.
106
107 This work was sponsored by Google.
108 [Steve Henson]
109
Dr. Stephen Henson249a77f2008-08-27 15:52:05 +0000110 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
111
112 This work was sponsored by Google.
113 [Steve Henson]
114
Dr. Stephen Hensond0fff692008-08-20 16:42:19 +0000115 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
116 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
117 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
Dr. Stephen Henson4b968392008-08-29 11:37:21 +0000118 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
Dr. Stephen Hensond0fff692008-08-20 16:42:19 +0000119
120 This work was sponsored by Google.
121 [Steve Henson]
122
Dr. Stephen Henson9d84d4e2008-08-13 16:00:11 +0000123 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
124 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
125 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
126 CRL functionality in future.
127
128 This work was sponsored by Google.
129 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson9d84d4e2008-08-13 16:00:11 +0000130
Dr. Stephen Henson002e66c2008-08-12 10:32:56 +0000131 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
132
133 This work was sponsored by Google.
134 [Steve Henson]
135
Dr. Stephen Hensone9746e02008-08-08 15:35:29 +0000136 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
137 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
138
139 This work was sponsored by Google.
140 [Steve Henson]
141
142 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
143 and URI types are currently supported.
144
145 This work was sponsored by Google.
146 [Steve Henson]
147
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +0000148 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
149 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
150 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
151 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
152 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
153 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
154 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
155 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
156
157 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
158 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
159 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
160
Bodo Möller2ecd2ed2008-08-13 19:30:01 +0000161 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
162 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
163 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
164 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
165
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +0000166 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
167 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
168 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
169 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
170 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
171 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
172 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
173 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
174 of &errno.)
175 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
176
Dr. Stephen Henson5cbd2032008-07-30 15:49:12 +0000177 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
178 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
179 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
Dr. Stephen Hensone9746e02008-08-08 15:35:29 +0000180
181 This work was sponsored by Google.
Dr. Stephen Henson5cbd2032008-07-30 15:49:12 +0000182 [Steve Henson]
183
Ben Laurie5ce278a2008-06-04 11:01:43 +0000184 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
185 [Ben Laurie]
186
187 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
188 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
189 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
190 [Ben Laurie]
191
Ben Laurie8671b892008-06-03 02:48:34 +0000192 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
193 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
194 [Nick Mathewson]
195
Ben Laurie3c1d6bb2008-05-26 11:24:29 +0000196 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
197 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
198 [Ben Laurie]
199
Dr. Stephen Henson8931b302008-03-12 21:14:28 +0000200 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
201 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd47c362008-03-15 00:02:23 +0000202 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
Dr. Stephen Hensoneb9d8d82008-03-28 13:15:39 +0000203 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
204 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
205 content types and variants.
Dr. Stephen Henson8931b302008-03-12 21:14:28 +0000206 [Steve Henson]
207
Dr. Stephen Henson3df93572008-04-02 11:44:00 +0000208 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
Dr. Stephen Henson8931b302008-03-12 21:14:28 +0000209 [Steve Henson]
210
Dr. Stephen Henson73980532008-01-06 00:36:22 +0000211 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
212 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
213 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
214 files from the associated perl scripts.
215 [Steve Henson]
216
Dr. Stephen Henson0e1dba92007-10-26 12:06:36 +0000217 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
218 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
219 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
220
Andy Polyakov0023adb2007-10-01 07:38:32 +0000221 *) s390x assembler pack.
222 [Andy Polyakov]
223
Andy Polyakov4c7c5ff2007-09-27 07:09:46 +0000224 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
225 "family."
226 [Andy Polyakov]
227
Bodo Möller761772d2007-09-21 06:54:24 +0000228 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
229 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
230 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
231 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
232 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
233 to use. For example, specify an option
234
235 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
236
237 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
238 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
239 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
240 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
241 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
242 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
243
244 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
245 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
246 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
247 return non-zero for success.
248
249 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
250 by using
251
252 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
253 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
254
255 where
256
257 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
258 void *arg;
259
260 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
261 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
262 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
263 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
264 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
265 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
266 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
267 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
268 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
269
270 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
271 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
272 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
273 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
274 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
275 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
276
277 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
278 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
279 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
280 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
281 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
282 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
283
284 [Bodo Moeller]
285
Dr. Stephen Henson81025662007-08-31 12:42:53 +0000286 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
287 MAC.
288
289 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
290
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +0000291 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
292 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
293 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
294 supported.
295
Dr. Stephen Hensonba0e8262007-08-23 22:59:09 +0000296 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
297 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
298 SSL_SESSION.
299
300 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
301 protection in servers so again support should be possible
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +0000302 with no application modification.
303
304 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
305 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
306
307 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
308 or server extensions to be examined.
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5d7472007-08-27 23:41:36 +0000309

Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +0000311 [Steve Henson]
312
Dr. Stephen Henson3c07d3a2007-06-07 13:14:42 +0000313 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
314 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
315 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
316
Dr. Stephen Hensonb948e2c2007-06-04 17:04:40 +0000317 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
318 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
319 ciphersuite support.
320 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
321
Dr. Stephen Henson9cfc8a92007-04-13 01:06:41 +0000322 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
323 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
324 to output in BER and PEM format.
325 [Steve Henson]
326
Dr. Stephen Henson47b71e62007-04-11 12:33:28 +0000327 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
328 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
329 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
Dr. Stephen Henson2022cfe2007-04-11 17:20:40 +0000330 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
331 -macopt options to dgst utility.
Dr. Stephen Henson47b71e62007-04-11 12:33:28 +0000332 [Steve Henson]
333
Dr. Stephen Hensond952c792007-04-08 12:47:18 +0000334 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
335 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
336 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
337 utility.
338 [Steve Henson]
339
Bodo Möllerfd5bc652007-02-20 16:36:58 +0000340 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
341 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
342 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
343 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
344 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
345 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
346 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
347 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
348 enabled again.
349
350 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
351 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
352 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
353 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
354
355 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
356 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
357 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
358 the default order.
359 [Bodo Moeller]
360
Bodo Möller0a051232007-02-19 18:41:41 +0000361 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
362 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
363 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
364 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
365 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
366 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
367 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
368 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
369 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
370
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +0000371 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
372 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
373 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
374 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
375 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
376 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
377 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
378 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
379 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
380 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
381 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
382 kinds of kludges.
383
384 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
385 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
386 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.

388 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
389 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
390 "CAMELLIA256".
391 [Bodo Moeller]
392
Nils Larsch357d5de2007-02-03 14:41:12 +0000393 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
394 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
395 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
396 [Nils Larsch]
397
Dr. Stephen Henson11d8cdc2006-12-24 16:22:56 +0000398 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
399 it yet and it is largely untested.
400 [Steve Henson]
401
Nils Larsch06e2dd02006-12-20 08:58:54 +0000402 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
403 [Nils Larsch]
404
Dr. Stephen Hensonde121162006-11-16 00:19:39 +0000405 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
Dr. Stephen Henson297e6f12007-06-04 17:53:04 +0000406 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
Dr. Stephen Hensona6fbcb42007-09-07 13:25:15 +0000407 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonde121162006-11-16 00:19:39 +0000408 [Steve Henson]
409
Andy Polyakov31897722006-10-23 07:38:30 +0000410 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
411 [Andy Polyakov]
412
Dr. Stephen Henson010fa0b2006-09-21 12:42:15 +0000413 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
414 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
415 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
416 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
417 [Steve Henson]
418
Dr. Stephen Henson5d20c4f2006-09-17 17:16:28 +0000419 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
420 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
421 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
422 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
423 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
424 [Steve Henson]
425
426 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
427 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
428 [Cryptocom]
429
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc7535b2006-09-14 17:25:02 +0000430 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
431 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
432 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
433 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
434 [Steve Henson]
435
436 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
437 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
438 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
439 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
440 [Steve Henson]
441
Dr. Stephen Hensonf6e7d012006-07-25 17:39:38 +0000442 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
443 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
444 [Steve Henson]
445
Dr. Stephen Hensonedc54022006-07-24 12:39:22 +0000446 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
447 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
448 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
449 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
450 [Steve Henson]
451
Dr. Stephen Henson450ea832006-07-18 12:36:19 +0000452 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
453 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
454 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
455 [Steve Henson]
456
Dr. Stephen Henson454dbbc2006-07-17 13:26:54 +0000457 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
458 utility.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc1c6c0b2006-07-17 12:18:28 +0000459 [Steve Henson]
460
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7683e32006-07-10 18:36:55 +0000461 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
462 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
463 [Steve Henson]
464
465 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
466 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
467 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
468 if necessary.
469 [Steve Henson]
470
Dr. Stephen Henson0ee21662006-07-09 16:05:43 +0000471 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
472 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
473 to free up any added signature OIDs.
474 [Steve Henson]
475
Dr. Stephen Henson5ba4bf32006-07-09 00:53:45 +0000476 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
477 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
478 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
479 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
480 [Steve Henson]
481
Bodo Möllerc4e78702006-06-18 22:00:57 +0000482 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
483 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
484 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
485 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
486 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
487 the array representation useful in a more general context.
488 [Douglas Stebila]
489
Bodo Möller89bbe142006-06-14 17:40:31 +0000490 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
491 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
492 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
493 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
494 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
495
496 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
497 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
498 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
499 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
500 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
501 protocol).
502
503 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
504 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
505 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
506 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
507
508 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
509 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
510 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
511 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
512 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
513
514 aECDH - ECDH cert
515 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
516 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
517
518 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
519 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
520
521 [Bodo Moeller]
522
Dr. Stephen Hensonfb7b3932006-06-06 13:27:36 +0000523 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
524 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
525 [Steve Henson]
526
Dr. Stephen Henson01b8b3c2006-06-05 11:52:46 +0000527 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
528 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
529 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonde9fcfe2006-06-02 17:52:27 +0000530
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +0000531 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9777d22006-06-02 12:33:39 +0000532 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
533 functional reference processing.
Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +0000534 [Steve Henson]
535
Dr. Stephen Henson91c9e622006-05-24 17:30:09 +0000536 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
537 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
538 process.
539 [Steve Henson]
540
Dr. Stephen Henson55311922006-05-18 23:44:44 +0000541 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
542 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
543 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
544 [Steve Henson]
545
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7fcd2006-05-18 12:41:28 +0000546 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
547 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
548 application to support multiple signers.
549 [Steve Henson]
550
Dr. Stephen Henson121dd392006-05-17 18:46:22 +0000551 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
552 digest MAC.
553 [Steve Henson]
554
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +0000555 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8f702a2006-05-15 17:34:36 +0000556 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3a1ea2006-05-15 18:35:13 +0000557 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
558 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
559 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +0000560 [Steve Henson]
561
Dr. Stephen Henson34b3c722006-05-14 16:50:22 +0000562 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
Dr. Stephen Henson959e8df2006-05-11 21:39:00 +0000563 new API.
564 [Steve Henson]
565
Dr. Stephen Henson399a6f02006-05-08 12:44:25 +0000566 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
567 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
568 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
569 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
570 a no op.
571 [Steve Henson]
Richard Levitte28e4fe32005-05-18 04:04:12 +0000572
Dr. Stephen Henson03919682006-05-07 17:09:39 +0000573 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
574 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
575 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
576 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
577 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
578 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
579 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
580 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
581 [Steve Henson]
582
Dr. Stephen Hensonee1d9ec2006-04-19 17:05:59 +0000583 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
584 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
585 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
586 between digests and public key types.
587 [Steve Henson]
588
Dr. Stephen Hensond2027092006-04-18 23:36:07 +0000589 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
590 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
591 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
592 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
593 [Steve Henson]
594
Dr. Stephen Henson492a9e22006-04-17 17:12:23 +0000595 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
596 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
597 key ASN1 method.
598 [Steve Henson]
599
Dr. Stephen Henson9ca70472006-04-16 16:15:59 +0000600 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
601 [Steve Henson]
602
Dr. Stephen Hensonffb1ac62006-04-13 20:16:56 +0000603 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
604 pkeyutl.
605 [Steve Henson]
606
Dr. Stephen Henson3ba08852006-04-12 23:51:24 +0000607 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
608 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
609 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
610 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
611 pkey, genpkey.
612 [Steve Henson]
613
Ulf Möller4700aea2006-04-11 21:34:21 +0000614 *) BeOS support.
615 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
616
617 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
618 manual pages.
619 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
620
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +0000621 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
622 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
623 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
624 functionality for RSA.
625 [Steve Henson]
626
Dr. Stephen Hensonf733a5e2006-04-07 16:42:09 +0000627 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
628 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
629 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
630 [Steve Henson]
631
Dr. Stephen Henson0b6f3c62006-04-06 13:02:06 +0000632 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
633 key API, doesn't do much yet.
634 [Steve Henson]
635
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33dac2006-04-04 18:16:03 +0000636 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
637 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
638 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
639 [Steve Henson]
640
Bodo Möller33273722006-03-30 02:44:56 +0000641 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
642 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
643 [Douglas Stebila]
644
Dr. Stephen Henson246e0932006-03-28 17:23:48 +0000645 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
646 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
647 [Steve Henson]
648
Dr. Stephen Henson3e4585c2006-03-28 14:35:32 +0000649 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +0000650 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
Dr. Stephen Henson3e4585c2006-03-28 14:35:32 +0000651 type.
Dr. Stephen Henson3e84b6e2006-03-28 12:34:45 +0000652 [Steve Henson]
653
Dr. Stephen Henson35208f32006-03-22 13:09:35 +0000654 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
655 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
656 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
657 structure.
658 [Steve Henson]
659
Dr. Stephen Henson448be742006-03-20 12:22:24 +0000660 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
661 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
662 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
663 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
664 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
665 of public and private key structures.
666 [Steve Henson]
667
Bodo Möller36ca4ba2006-03-11 23:46:37 +0000668 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
669 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
670 [Douglas Stebila]
671
Nils Larschddac1972006-03-10 23:06:27 +0000672 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
673 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
674 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
675
676 New ciphersuites:
677 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
678 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
679
680 New functions:
681 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
682 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
683 SSL_get_psk_identity
684 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
685
686 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
687
Ulf Möllerc7235be2006-02-12 23:11:56 +0000688 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
689 and response verification functionality.
690 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
691
Bodo Möller1aeb3da2006-01-06 09:08:59 +0000692 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
693 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
694 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
695 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
696 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
697 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
698 server_name extension.
Bodo Möllerf1fd4542006-01-03 03:27:19 +0000699
700 New functions (subject to change):
701
702 SSL_get_servername()
703 SSL_get_servername_type()
704 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
705
706 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):

Bodo Möller241520e2006-01-11 06:10:40 +0000714 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
Bodo Möllerb1277b92006-01-02 23:29:12 +0000715
Bodo Möller241520e2006-01-11 06:10:40 +0000716 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
717 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
718 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
719 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
720 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
721 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
722 option.

Andy Polyakoved266042005-12-16 12:55:33 +0000726 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
727 [Andy Polyakov]
728
Andy Polyakov0cb9d932005-12-16 11:12:42 +0000729 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
730 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
731 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
732 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
733 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
734 [Andy Polyakov]
735
Bodo Möller8dee9f82005-11-15 21:08:38 +0000736 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
737 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
738 macro.
739 [Bodo Moeller]
740
Andy Polyakov4d524042005-10-22 17:57:18 +0000741 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
742 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
743 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
744 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.

974 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
975
976 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
977 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
978 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
979 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
980 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
981
982 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
983 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
984
985 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
986 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
987 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
988 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,

1000 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
1001 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
1002 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
1003 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
1004 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
1005 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
1006 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
1007 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an

1014 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
1015 hard coded.

Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00001087
Andy Polyakov0d89e452007-10-13 10:55:30 +00001088 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
1089 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
1090 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
1091 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
1092 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
1093 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
1094 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
1095 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
1096 [Andy Polyakov]
1097
1098 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
1099 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
1100 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
1101 Steve Henson]
1102
1103 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1104 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1105 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1106 supported.
1107
1108 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1109 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1110 SSL_SESSION.
1111
1112 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1113 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1114 with no application modification.
1115
1116 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1117 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1118
1119 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1120 or server extensions to be examined.
1121
1122 This work was sponsored by Google.
1123 [Steve Henson]
1124
1125 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1126 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1127 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1128 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1129 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1130 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1131 server_name extension.
1132
1133 New functions (subject to change):
1134
1135 SSL_get_servername()
1136 SSL_get_servername_type()
1137 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1138
1139 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1140
1141 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1142 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1143 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1144 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1145 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1146
1147 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1148
1149 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1150 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1151 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1152 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1153 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1154 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1155 option.
1156
1157 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
1158
1159 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
1160 [Steve Henson]
1161
Andy Polyakov85a56682007-06-20 17:46:43 +00001162 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
1163 [Andy Polyakov]
1164
Bodo Möller19f6c522007-05-22 09:47:43 +00001165 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
1166 (which previously caused an internal error).
1167 [Bodo Moeller]
1168
Ben Laurie69ab0852007-05-13 15:14:38 +00001169 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
1170 [Ben Laurie]
1171
Ben Laurie5f09d0e2007-05-13 12:57:59 +00001172 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
1173 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
1174
Bodo Möller96afc1c2007-04-23 23:48:59 +00001175 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
1176 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
1177 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
1178
1179 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
1180 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
1181 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
1182 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
1183
1184 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
1185 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
1186 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
1187 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
1188
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00001189 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
1190 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
1191 information. For detailed background information, see
1192 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
1193 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
1194 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
1195 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
1196 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
1197 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
1198 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
Bodo Möllerb0022652007-03-28 18:41:23 +00001199 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
1200 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
1201 remove a conditional branch.
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00001202
1203 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
1204 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
1205 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
1206 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
1207 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
1208 remains as a deprecated alias.
1209
1210 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
1211 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
1212 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
1213 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
1214
1215 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
1216 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
1217 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
1218 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
1219 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
1220 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
1221 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
1222 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
1223
1224 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
1225
Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00001226 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
1227 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
1228 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
1229 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
1230 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
1231 with applications using a single external cache for quite
1232 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
1233 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
1234 in a different context.
1235 [Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller61118ca2006-09-28 13:35:01 +00001236
Bodo Möller0a051232007-02-19 18:41:41 +00001237 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
1238 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
1239 authentication-only ciphersuites.
1240 [Bodo Moeller]
1241
Bodo Möllerdb99c522008-09-14 13:51:44 +00001242 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
1243 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
1244 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
1245
Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00001246 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
1247
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00001248 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
1249 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
1250 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
1251 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
1252 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
1253 [Victor Duchovni]
1254
Bodo Möller772e3c02006-12-19 15:11:37 +00001255 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
1256 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
1257 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
1258 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
1259 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
1260 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
1261 [Bodo Moeller]
1262
Bodo Möller1e24b3a2006-11-29 14:45:50 +00001263 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
1264 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
1265 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
1266 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
1267 message has informed the client about his choice.)
1268 [Bodo Moeller]
1269
Ben Laurie96ea4ae2006-11-27 14:18:05 +00001270 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
1271 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
1272
Bodo Möller1e24b3a2006-11-29 14:45:50 +00001273 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
1274 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
1275 Improve header file function name parsing.
1276 [Steve Henson]
1277
Lutz Jänicke8d724762007-02-21 18:20:41 +00001278 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
1279 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
1280 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
1281
Bodo Möller61118ca2006-09-28 13:35:01 +00001282 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
Mark J. Coxb79aa052006-09-05 08:58:03 +00001283
Mark J. Cox3ff55e92006-09-28 13:18:43 +00001284 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
1285 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
1286 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1287
1288 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
1289 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
1290
1291 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
1292 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1293
1294 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
1295 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
1296 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1297
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00001298 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
1299 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
Bodo Möllerb6699c32006-09-12 14:42:19 +00001300 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
1301 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00001302 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
1303 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
1304 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
1305 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
1306 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
1307
1308 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
1309 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
1310 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
1311 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
1312 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
1313
1314 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
1315 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
1316 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
1317 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
1318 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
1319 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
1320 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
1321 multiple values to extend the available space.
1322
1323 [Bodo Moeller]
1324
Mark J. Coxb79aa052006-09-05 08:58:03 +00001325 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
1326
1327 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
1328 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
Dr. Stephen Henson5cda6c42006-05-07 12:30:37 +00001329
Ben Laurieaa6d1a02006-08-31 14:04:04 +00001330 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
1331 [Ben Laurie]
1332
Bodo Möllere34aa5a2006-06-28 14:50:12 +00001333 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
1334 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
1335 undesirable limitations.
1336 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
1337
Bodo Möller81de1022006-06-22 12:37:28 +00001338 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
1339 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
1340 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
1341 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
1342 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
1343 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
1344 to avoid potential handshake problems.
Bodo Möller850815c2006-06-20 08:50:42 +00001345 [Bodo Moeller]
1346
Bodo Möller5b57fe02006-06-14 17:51:46 +00001347 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
1348
1349 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
1350 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
1351 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
1352
1353 The latter two were purportedly from
1354 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
1355 appear there.
1356
Nils Larschfec38ca2006-12-21 21:13:27 +00001357 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
Bodo Möller5b57fe02006-06-14 17:51:46 +00001358 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
1359 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
1360 [Bodo Moeller]
1361
Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +00001362 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
1363 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
1364 [Bodo Moeller]
1365
Bodo Möllerf3dea9a2006-06-09 15:44:59 +00001366 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
1367 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
1368 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
1369 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
1370
1371 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
1372 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
1373 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
1374 [NTT]
1375
Dr. Stephen Henson5cda6c42006-05-07 12:30:37 +00001376 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
1377 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
1378 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
1379 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
1380 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
1381 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.

1401 [Steve Henson]
1402
Dr. Stephen Hensonad2695b2005-12-05 13:46:46 +00001403 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
1404 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
1405 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
1406 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
1407 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
1408 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
1409 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
1410 can't be loaded.
1411 [Steve Henson]
1412
Dr. Stephen Henson452ae492005-11-20 13:07:47 +00001413 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
1414 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
1415 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
1416 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
1417 [Steve Henson]
1418
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbf002b2005-11-06 17:58:26 +00001419 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries

1421 [Steve Henson]
1422
Richard Levitte998ac552005-11-01 07:53:37 +00001423 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.

Nils Larsch6e119bb2005-08-25 07:29:54 +00001442 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
1443 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1444 [Nils Larsch]
1445
Bodo Möller770bc592005-08-23 06:54:33 +00001446 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
Ben Lauriebf3d6c02005-08-21 16:00:17 +00001447 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
1448
1449 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
1450 [Nick Mathewson]
1451
Andy Polyakov0491e052005-08-07 22:21:49 +00001452 *) Extended Windows CE support.
1453 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
Bodo Möllera1006c32005-10-26 19:28:04 +00001454
Dr. Stephen Hensonf3b656b2005-08-05 23:56:11 +00001455 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
1456 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1457 [Steve Henson]
1458
Dr. Stephen Henson8f2e4fd2005-08-04 22:15:22 +00001459 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
1460 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
1461 smime utility.
1462 [Steve Henson]
Richard Levitte2bd2cd92005-07-05 19:16:24 +00001463
1464 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
Nils Larsch12bdb642005-04-02 09:29:15 +00001465
Bodo Möller675f6052006-06-14 08:55:23 +00001466 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
1467 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
1468
Richard Levittec8310122005-07-05 18:36:42 +00001469 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
1470 [Richard Levitte]
1471
1472 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
1473 key into the same file any more.
1474 [Richard Levitte]
1475
Andy Polyakov8d3509b2005-07-05 11:48:38 +00001476 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
1477 [Andy Polyakov]
1478
Dr. Stephen Hensoncbdac462005-07-04 23:12:04 +00001479 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
1480 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
1481
Richard Levittec8310122005-07-05 18:36:42 +00001482 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
1483 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
1484 [Richard Levitte]
1485
Geoff Thorpea2c32e22005-05-29 19:14:21 +00001486 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
1487 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
1488 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
1489 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
1490 this only applies when building 'shared'.
1491 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
1492
Dr. Stephen Hensonb6995ad2005-05-15 00:54:45 +00001493 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
1494 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
1495 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
1496 [Steve Henson]
1497
Nils Larsch800e4002005-04-26 22:31:48 +00001498 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
1499 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
1500 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
1501 - add new function for parameter creation
1502 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
1503 BN_BLINDING parameters
1504 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
1505 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
1506 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
1507 threads.
1508 [Nils Larsch]
1509
Ben Laurie36d16f82005-04-26 16:02:40 +00001510 *) Add support for DTLS.
1511 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1512
Nils Larschdc0ed302005-04-08 22:52:42 +00001513 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
1514 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
1515 [Walter Goulet]
1516
Nils Larsch60493992005-04-07 23:19:17 +00001517 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
1518 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
1519 [Nils Larsch]
1520
Nils Larsch12bdb642005-04-02 09:29:15 +00001521 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
1522 the apps/openssl applications.
1523 [Nils Larsch]
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00001524
Ben Laurie41a15c42005-03-31 09:26:39 +00001525 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
1526 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
1527 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
1528 [Ben Laurie]
1529
Bodo Möllerc9a112f2005-02-22 10:29:51 +00001530 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
Bodo Möllerecc5ef82005-03-02 20:11:31 +00001531 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
1532
1533 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
1534 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
1535
1536 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
1537 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
1538 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
1539 avoid this algorithm.)
1540
Bodo Möllerc9a112f2005-02-22 10:29:51 +00001541 [Bodo Moeller]
1542
Richard Levitte6951c232004-12-28 00:21:35 +00001543 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
1544 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
1545 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
1546 [Richard Levitte]
1547
Andy Polyakovea681ba2004-11-26 15:26:09 +00001548 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
1549 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
1550 [Andy Polyakov]
1551
Dr. Stephen Henson401ee372004-11-25 17:47:31 +00001552 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
1553 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
1554 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
1555 pod file:
1556
1557 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
1558
1559 The blank line is mandatory.
1560
1561 [Steve Henson]
1562
Dr. Stephen Henson826a42a2004-11-16 17:30:59 +00001563 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
1564 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
1565 sources.
1566 [Steve Henson]
1567
Dr. Stephen Henson5d7c2222004-09-06 18:43:01 +00001568 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
1569 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
1570
1571 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
1572 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
1573 to support policy checking and print out.
1574 [Steve Henson]
1575
Geoff Thorpe30fe0282004-08-04 22:42:29 +00001576 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
1577 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
1578 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
1579 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
1580
Geoff Thorpedf11e1e2004-06-17 23:50:25 +00001581 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
1582 [Geoff Thorpe]
1583
Andy Polyakovad500342004-05-31 14:03:02 +00001584 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
1585 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
1586
Andy Polyakove14f4aa2004-05-13 13:58:44 +00001587 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
1588 implementation contributed by IBM.
1589 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
1590
Geoff Thorpebcfea9f2004-04-26 15:31:35 +00001591 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
1592 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
1593 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
1594 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
1595
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00001596 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
1597 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
1598
1599 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
1600 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
1601 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
1602 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
1603 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
1604 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
Dr. Stephen Henson64674bc2004-04-20 12:05:26 +00001605 [Steve Henson]
1606
Geoff Thorpe3a87a9b2004-04-19 17:46:04 +00001607 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
1608 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
1609 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
1610 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
1611 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
1612 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
1613 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
1614 [Geoff Thorpe]
1615
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf5773f2004-03-31 12:55:33 +00001616 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
1617 [Steve Henson]
1618
Dr. Stephen Henson216659e2004-03-28 17:38:00 +00001619 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
1620 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
1621 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
1622 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
1623 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
1624 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
1625 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
1626 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
1627 [Steve Henson]
1628
Dr. Stephen Hensone1a27eb2004-03-27 22:49:28 +00001629 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
1630 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
1631 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
1632 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
1633 [Steve Henson]
1634
Dr. Stephen Henson6446e0c2004-03-27 13:30:14 +00001635 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
1636 syntax:
1637
1638 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
1639 [Steve Henson]
1640
Geoff Thorpe5c98b2c2004-03-25 04:16:14 +00001641 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
1642 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
1643 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
1644 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
1645 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
1646 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
1647 BN_CTX's "bundling".
1648 [Geoff Thorpe]
1649
Geoff Thorpe46ef8732004-03-25 02:52:04 +00001650 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
1651 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
1652 [Geoff Thorpe]
1653
Dr. Stephen Henson4acc3e92004-03-23 14:14:35 +00001654 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
1655 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
1656 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
1657 [Steve Henson]
1658
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00001659 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
1660 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
1661 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
1662 below).
1663 [Geoff Thorpe]
1664
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00001665 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
1666 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00001667 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00001668
Geoff Thorpeb6358c82004-03-13 23:57:20 +00001669 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
1670 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
1671 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
1672 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
1673 [Geoff Thorpe]
1674
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00001675 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
1676 initialised value as BN_new().
1677 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
1678
Dr. Stephen Hensonedec6142004-03-08 13:56:31 +00001679 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
1680 [Steve Henson]
1681
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00001682 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
1683 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
1684 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
1685 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
1686 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
1687 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
1688 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
1689 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
1690 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
1691 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
1692 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
1693 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
1694 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
1695 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00001696 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00001697
Geoff Thorpe2ce90b92003-10-29 18:04:37 +00001698 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
1699 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
1700 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
1701 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
1702 [Geoff Thorpe]
1703
Geoff Thorpe8dc344c2003-10-29 04:57:05 +00001704 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
1705 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
1706 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
1707 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
1708 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
1709 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
1710 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
1711 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
1712 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
1713 [Geoff Thorpe]
1714
Geoff Thorpe0991f072003-10-29 04:40:13 +00001715 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
1716 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
1717 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
1718 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
1719 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
1720 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
1721 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
1722 [Geoff Thorpe]
1723
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00001724 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
Geoff Thorpe2aaec9c2003-10-29 04:14:08 +00001725 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
1726 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
1727 these have been updated also.
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00001728 [Geoff Thorpe]
1729
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00001730 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
1731 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
1732 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
1733 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
1734 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
1735 functions.
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00001736 [Steve Henson]
1737
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00001738 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
1739 structure of type "other".
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00001740 [Steve Henson]
1741
Ralf S. Engelschall6bd27f82003-09-25 13:57:58 +00001742 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
1743 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
1744 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
1745 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
1746 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
1747 situation in the script.
1748 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1749
Bodo Möller968766c2003-07-22 12:34:21 +00001750 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1751 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
1752 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
1753 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
1754 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
1755 used as premaster secret.
1756 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1757
Bodo Möller652ae062003-07-22 10:39:10 +00001758 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
1759 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
1760 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1761
Richard Levittee666c452003-06-11 22:42:28 +00001762 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.

1764
Richard Levitte54f64512003-06-11 20:49:58 +00001765 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
1766 control of the error stack.
1767 [Richard Levitte]
1768
Richard Levitte3bbb0212003-05-01 03:57:46 +00001769 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
1770 [Richard Levitte]
1771
Richard Levittea5db6fa2003-05-01 03:53:12 +00001772 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
1773 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
1774 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
1775 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
1776 [Richard Levitte]
1777
Richard Levitte535fba42003-05-01 03:45:18 +00001778 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
1779 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
1780 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
1781 [Richard Levitte]

Richard Levitte1ae0a832003-04-29 22:08:57 +00001783 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
1784 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
1785 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
1786 a memory area.
1787 [Richard Levitte]
1788
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +00001789 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
1790 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
1791 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
1792 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
1793 [Richard Levitte]
1794
Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +00001795 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
1796 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
1797 the following flags are defined:
1798
1799 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
1800 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1801 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
1802 number.
1803
1804 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
1805 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1806 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
1807 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
1808 returns zero.

Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +00001810
Richard Levitte16b1b032003-04-03 22:33:59 +00001811 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
1812 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
1813 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
1814 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
1815 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
1816 [Richard Levitte]
1817
Richard Levittee6526fb2003-04-03 22:27:24 +00001818 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
1819 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
1820 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
1821 [Richard Levitte]
1822
Richard Levittef85b68c2003-04-03 16:33:03 +00001823 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1824 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1825 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1826 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1827 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1828 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1829 [Richard Levitte]
1830
Dr. Stephen Henson1a15c892003-03-30 01:51:16 +00001831 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
1832 req and dirName.
1833 [Steve Henson]
1834
Dr. Stephen Henson520b76f2003-03-24 17:04:44 +00001835 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
1836 [Steve Henson]
1837
Dr. Stephen Hensonf80153e2003-03-21 16:26:20 +00001838 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
1839 [Steve Henson]
1840
Dr. Stephen Hensona1d12da2003-03-20 17:26:44 +00001841 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1842 [Steve Henson]
1843
Geoff Thorpe879650b2003-03-11 01:49:21 +00001844 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1845 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1846 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1847 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1848 default implementation more easily.
1849 [Geoff Thorpe]
1850
Dr. Stephen Hensonf0dc08e2003-02-27 01:54:11 +00001851 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1852 in config files.
1853 [Steve Henson]
1854
Richard Levitte132eaa52003-02-22 14:41:34 +00001855 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
1856 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
1857 [Richard Levitte]
1858
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00001859 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1860 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1861 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1862 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1863
Dr. Stephen Hensone9ec6392003-02-25 19:03:31 +00001864 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00001865 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1866 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1867 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1868 [Steve Henson]
1869
Richard Levitte2d3de722003-02-13 23:52:54 +00001870 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1871 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1872 to do it.
1873 [Richard Levitte]
1874
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001875 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +00001876 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001877 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +00001878 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00001879 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
1880 scalar * generator).
1881 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1882
Dr. Stephen Henson4e5d3a72003-02-05 00:34:31 +00001883 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1884 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1885 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1886 correctly.
1887 [Steve Henson]
1888
Geoff Thorpe96f70652003-01-30 15:52:40 +00001889 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1890 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1891 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1892 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
1893 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
1894 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
1895 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
1896 linker additions, eg;
1897 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
1898 [Geoff Thorpe]
1899
1900 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
1901 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
1902 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
1903 [Geoff Thorpe]
1904
Lutz Jänickea74333f2003-01-15 14:54:59 +00001905 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1906 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1907 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
1908 via PR#459)
1909 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1910
Geoff Thorpe0e4aa0d2003-01-15 02:01:55 +00001911 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
1912 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
1913 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
1914 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
1915 [Geoff Thorpe]
1916
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +00001917 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
1918 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
1919 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
1920 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
1921 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
1922 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
1923 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
1924 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
1925 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
1926 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00001927
1928 Example for using the new callback interface:
1929
1930 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
1931 void *my_arg = ...;
1932 BN_GENCB my_cb;
1933
1934 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
1935
1936 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
1937 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
1938 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
1939 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
1940 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
1941 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
1942 */

1945
Richard Levittefdaea9e2002-12-08 09:31:41 +00001946 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
1947 available to TLS with the number defined in
1948 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
1949 [Richard Levitte]
1950
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00001951 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
1952 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
1953
1954 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00001955 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1956 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1957 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00001958
1959 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
1960 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
1961
1962 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
1963 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
1964 well.
1965 [Richard Levitte]
1966
Richard Levitte6f17f162002-11-15 16:48:38 +00001967 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
1968 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
1969 [Richard Levitte]
1970
Nils Larschff22e912005-04-22 20:02:44 +00001971 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
1972 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
1973 and a macro that behave like
1974 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
Bodo Möllerb53e44e2002-11-04 13:17:22 +00001975
Nils Larschff22e912005-04-22 20:02:44 +00001976 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.

Bodo Möller5c6bf032002-10-28 13:23:24 +00001979 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
1980 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
1981 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
1982 if applicable.

1984
Bodo Möller19b8d062002-10-28 14:02:19 +00001985 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
1986 [Bodo Moeller]
1987
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +00001988 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
1989 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
1990 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
1991 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
1992 directory engines/.
1993 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
1994 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
1995 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
1996 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
Richard Levitte874fee42002-10-12 16:07:31 +00001997 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
1998 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
1999 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.

2001
Richard Levitte30afcc02002-10-11 00:37:11 +00002002 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared

2008
Dr. Stephen Henson9a48b072002-10-03 23:53:52 +00002009 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
2010 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
2011 files while avoiding the low level API.
2012
2013 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
2014 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
2015 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
2016 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
2017
2018 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
2019 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
2020 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
2021 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
2022 instead of the low level API.
2023 [Steve Henson]
2024
Dr. Stephen Henson230fd6b2002-10-03 12:38:52 +00002025 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
2026 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
2027 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
2028 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
2029 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
2030 PKCS#7 code.
2031
2032 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
2033 down to the template encoder.
2034 [Steve Henson]
2035
Bodo Möller9226e212002-09-10 07:34:45 +00002036 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not

2038 [Bodo Moeller]
2039
Bodo Möllerea262262002-08-09 08:56:08 +00002040 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
2041 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
2042 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.

2049 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2050
Bodo Möller95ecacf2002-08-02 15:02:03 +00002051 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations

2053 [Bodo Moeller]
2054
Bodo Möller6fb60a82002-08-02 14:57:53 +00002055 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
2056 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
2057 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
2058 [Bodo Moeller]
2059
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00002060 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,

2062
2063 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2064 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2065
2066 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
2067 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
2068 New EC_METHOD:
2069
2070 EC_GF2m_simple_method
2071
2072 New API functions:

2079 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
2080
2081 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
2082 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
2083 enable it).
2084
2085 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
2086 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
2087 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
2088 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
2089 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +00002090 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
2091 various internal method names.)
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00002092
2093 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
2094 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.

2113 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2114 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2115
2116 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.

Bodo Möller1dc920c2002-08-02 13:03:55 +00002122 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
2123 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
2124 used) in the following functions [macros]:
2125
2126 BN_GF2m_add

2136
2137 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
2138 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
2139
2140 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
2141 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
2142 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
2143 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
2144 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
2145 where
2146 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.

Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00002254 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the

2287
2288 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2289 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2290 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2291 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2292 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2293 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2294 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2295 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2296 in a different context.

2308 [Bodo Moeller]
2309
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00002310 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of

2331 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2332 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello

Bodo Möllerb6699c32006-09-12 14:42:19 +00002355
2356 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit

2358 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
2359 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
2360 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
2361 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining

Dr. Stephen Henson59b68362005-03-22 14:11:06 +00002501 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
2502 server and client random values. Previously
2503 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
2504 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
2505
2506 This change has negligible security impact because:
2507
2508 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
2509 data.
2510
2511 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
2512 handshake.
2513
2514 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
2515 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
2516 values.

2579 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial

2613 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
2614 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
2615 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at

2698 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
Bodo Möller5679bcc2003-04-02 09:50:22 +00002699 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
2700 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
2701 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
2702 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
2703 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
2704 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

Dr. Stephen Hensoncf566632003-02-12 17:06:02 +00002749 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
2750 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
2751 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
2752 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
2753
2754 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
2755
2756 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
2757
2758 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
2759
2760 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
2761 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
2762 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
2763 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
2764 root is omitted).

Richard Levitte041843e2002-07-16 09:19:37 +00002966 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
2967 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
2968 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
2969 some local tweaks:
2970
2971 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
2972 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
2973 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00002974 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"

2978 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
2979 done
2980
2981 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
2982 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
2983 it probably means the source directory is very clean.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003158 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency

3161
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003162 *) New functions/macros
Bodo Möller7aa983c2001-11-10 15:14:00 +00003163
3164 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
3165 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
3166 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
3167 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
3168
3169 to request calling a callback function
3170
3171 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
3172 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
3173
3174 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
3175 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
3176 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
3177 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
3178 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
3179 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
3180 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
3181 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
3182 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
3183 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
3184
3185 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
3186 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
3187 [Bodo Moeller]
3188
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003189 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
Richard Levittea7b42002001-10-30 08:00:59 +00003190 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
3191 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
3192 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
3193 the configuration scripts.
3194
3195 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
3196 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003202 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
Bodo Möller48b0cf82001-10-26 14:06:33 +00003203 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just

3205 [Bodo Moeller]
3206
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003207 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
Dr. Stephen Henson1fc6d412001-10-26 12:40:38 +00003208 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
3209 [Steve Henson]
3210
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003211 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel

3214
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003215 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
Bodo Möller89da6532001-10-25 08:25:19 +00003216 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
3217 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
3218 has the same effect.

3220
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003221 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00003222 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
Richard Levitte2d57b732002-01-26 01:14:09 +00003223 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00003224 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
3225 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
3226 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
3227 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00003228
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00003229 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
3230 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
3231 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
3232 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
3233
3234 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
3235 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
3236 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
3237 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
3238
3239 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
3240 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
3241 won't work.
Richard Levittec2e4f172001-10-24 21:21:12 +00003242
3243 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
3244 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
3245 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00003246 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
3247 default), and then completely removed.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003250 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1558bb2001-10-21 02:09:15 +00003251 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
3252 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
3253 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
3254 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
3255 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
3256 particular extension is supported.
3257 [Steve Henson]
3258
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003259 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests

3261 [Steve Henson]
3262
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003263 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
Dr. Stephen Henson50d194a2001-10-23 00:54:58 +00003264 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
3265 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
3266 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
3267 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
3268 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
3269 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
3270 requires the destination to be valid.
3271
3272 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
3273 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().

Bodo Möller48948d52001-10-15 19:49:25 +00003277 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory

3283
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003284 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00003285 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
3286 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
3287 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
3288 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
3289 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
3290 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
3291 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
3292 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
3293 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
3294 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
3295 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
3296 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
3297 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
3298 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
3299 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
3300 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
3301 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
3302 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
3303 the new code.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003309 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
Richard Levitte89eecca2001-09-26 15:06:45 +00003310 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*

3312 [Richard Levitte]
3313
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003314 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00003315 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
3316 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
3317 false once a handshake has been completed.
3318 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
3319 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
3320 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
3321 client has followed the request.)
3322 [Bodo Moeller]
3323
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003324 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00003325 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
3326 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
3327 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
Bodo Möllerc21506b2002-06-14 12:21:11 +00003328
3329 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
3330 more bits available for options that should not be part of
3331 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003346 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +00003347 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
3348 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
3349 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003352 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00003353 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
3354 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
3355 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
3356 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
3357 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
3358 [Geoff Thorpe]
3359
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003360 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00003361 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
3362 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
3363 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
3364 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
3365 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
3366 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
3367 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).

3376
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003377 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the

3380
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003381 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00003382 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
3383 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
3384 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
3385 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
3386 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
3387 [Ben Laurie]
3388
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003389 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00003390 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
3391 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
3392 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
3393 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
3394 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
3395 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
3396 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
3397 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
3398 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
3399 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
3400 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
3401 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
3402 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
3403 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +00003404
3405 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
3406 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
3407 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00003408 [Geoff Thorpe]
3409
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003410 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +00003411 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
3412 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
3413 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
3414 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
3415 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
3416 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
3417 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
3418 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
3419 [Geoff Thorpe]
3420
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003421 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00003422 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
3423 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
3424 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
3425 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +00003426
3427 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".

Dr. Stephen Henson35bf3542001-08-17 00:33:43 +00003437 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
3438 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
3439 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003443 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00003444 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +00003445 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00003446 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
3447 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
3448 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003451 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
Bodo Möller76f8a1f2002-06-26 14:21:16 +00003452 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
3453 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00003454 Usage example:
3455
3456 EVP_MD_CTX md;

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003466 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
Ben Laurie8408f4f2001-07-31 13:33:58 +00003467 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
3468 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
3469 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00003470 anyway): E.g.,
3471
3472 des_key_schedule ks;
3473
3474 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
3475 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
3476

3479
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003480 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +00003481 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
3482 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
3483 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
3484 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
3485 functions prevents this.

3494
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003495 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The

Richard Levitte0665dd62001-07-12 04:23:57 +00003506 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
3507 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
3508 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
3509
3510 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,

Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003605 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option

3613 [Steve Henson]
3614
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003615 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdee69f2001-05-09 00:30:39 +00003616 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
3617 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
3618 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
3619 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
3620 internally such as S/MIME.
3621
3622 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
3623 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
3624 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
3625
3626 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
3627 applications.
3628 [Steve Henson]
3629
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003630 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
Dr. Stephen Hensonb545dc62001-05-07 22:52:50 +00003631 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
3632 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
3633 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
3634
3635 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3636
3637 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
3638
3639 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
3640 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
3641 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
3642 handling.
3643 [Steve Henson]

3652
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003653 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a

3655 [Geoff]
3656
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003657 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00003658 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
3659 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
3660 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
3661 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
3662 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
3663 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
3664 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
3665 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
3666 ENGINE structure.

3668
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003669 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this

3672 [Steve Henson]
3673
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003674 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003675 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
3676 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
3677 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
3678 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
3679 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
3680 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
3681 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
3682 [Geoff]
3683
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003684 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003685 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
3686 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
3687 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
3688 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
3689 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
3690 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
3691 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
3692 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
3693 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
3694 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
3695 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
3696 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
3697 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
3698 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
3699 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
3700 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
3701 [Geoff]
3702
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003703 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00003704 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
3705 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
3706 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
3707 internal engine_int.h header.
3708 [Geoff]
3709
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003710 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00003711 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
3712 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
3713 modify their own ones).
3714 [Geoff]
3715
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003716 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00003717 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
3718 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
3719 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
3720 later on via ctrl() commands.
3721 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
3722 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
3723 structural references.
3724 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
3725 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
3726 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
3727 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
3728 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Möllere13ae962001-09-10 18:59:53 +00003729 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set

3731 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
3732 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003738 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003739 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +00003740 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
3741 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
3742 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
3743 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
3744 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
3745 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

Dr. Stephen Henson535d79d2001-03-15 19:13:40 +00003757 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
3758 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
3759 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
3760 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
3761 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
3762 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003859 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003860 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
3861 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
3862 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
3863 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
3864 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
3865
3866 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3867 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3868
3869 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3870 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3871
3872 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3873 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3874
3875 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3876 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3877 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3878 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3879
3880 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003881 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003882
3883 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003884 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00003885
3886 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3887 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3888 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3889 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3890 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003893 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
Dr. Stephen Henson3d2e4692001-02-28 00:51:48 +00003894 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
3895 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
3896 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().

3903 [Steve Henson]
3904
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003905 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00003906 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
3907 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
3908 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00003909 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00003910 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
3911 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
3912 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
3913 ocsp utility.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003920 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
Dr. Stephen Hensond7c06e92001-02-23 13:04:24 +00003921 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
3922 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
3923 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
3924 [Steve Henson]
3925
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003926 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00003927 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
3928 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
3929 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
3930 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
3931 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
3932 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
3933 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
3934 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
3935 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
3936 [Steve Henson]
3937
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00003938 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00003939 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
3940 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
3941 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
3942 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
3943 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
3944 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".

3955 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
3956 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
3957 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00003958 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
3959 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
3960 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
3961 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
3962 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
3963 what is available.

Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00003994 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
3995 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
3996 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
3997 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()

Richard Levitte9235adb2001-02-08 17:59:29 +00004029 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
4030 signature against.
4031 [Richard Levitte]
4032
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004033 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00004034 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +00004035 AES OIDs.
4036
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00004037 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
4038 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
4039 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
4040 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
4041 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
4042 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
4043 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
4044 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004047 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
Dr. Stephen Henson26e083c2001-02-05 00:35:06 +00004048 request to response.
4049 [Steve Henson]
4050
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004051 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00004052 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
4053 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
4054 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
4055 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00004056 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00004057 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
4058 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
4059 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
4060 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
4061 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
4062 [Steve Henson]
4063
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004064 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00004065 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00004066 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00004067 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.

4072
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004073 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00004074 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00004075 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.

4077
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004078 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00004079 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
4080 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.

4083
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004084 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00004085 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
4086 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
4087 [Steve Henson]
4088
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004089 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00004090 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
4091 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
4092 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
4093 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
4094 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

4097
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004098 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00004099 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
4100 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
4101 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
4102 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
4103 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
4104 [Steve Henson]
4105
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004106 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00004107 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
4108 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
4109 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
4110 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
4111 printout format cleaned up.
4112 [Steve Henson]
4113
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004114 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00004115 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
4116 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
4117 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
4118 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
4119 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
4120 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
4121 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
4122 [Steve Henson]
4123
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004124 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00004125 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
4126 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
4127 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
4128 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
4129 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
4130 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
4131 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
4132 [Steve Henson]
4133
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004134 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
Bodo Möllerdfebac32001-01-15 11:35:24 +00004135 extensions from a separate configuration file.
4136 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
4137 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
4138 section to use.

4140
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004141 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
Dr. Stephen Henson5782ceb2001-01-13 01:48:38 +00004142 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
4143 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
4144 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
4145 [Steve Henson]
4146
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004147 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
Bodo Möllerc67cdb52001-01-12 14:50:44 +00004148 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
4149 the given serial number (according to the index file).

Bodo Möllerd1998582001-01-11 13:23:19 +00004155 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004162 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
Dr. Stephen Henson9b4dc832001-01-11 00:52:50 +00004163 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's

4165 [Steve Henson]
4166
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004167 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
Bodo Möller673b3fd2001-01-10 15:15:36 +00004168 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option

4171
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004172 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00004173 file name and line number information in additional arguments
4174 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
4175 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
4176 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
4177 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
4178 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
4179 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +00004180
4181 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
4182 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions

4185
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00004186 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
4187 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
4188 extended allocation function is enabled.
4189 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
4190 a conventional allocation function is enabled.

Geoff Thorpe3c914842001-01-09 00:24:38 +00004194 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
Geoff Thorpe56a67ad2001-01-09 16:39:04 +00004195 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004200 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00004201 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
4202 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
4203 be queried.
4204 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
4205 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
4206 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

4208
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004209 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00004210 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
4211 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
4212 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
4213 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
4214 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
4215 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
4216 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
4217 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004220 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00004221 provide utility functions which an application needing
4222 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
4223 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
4224 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
4225
4226 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
4227 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
4228 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
4229 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
4230 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
4231 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
4232 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
4233 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
4234 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
4235
4236 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
4237 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
4238 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
4239 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
4240 [Steve Henson]
4241
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004242 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00004243 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
4244 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
4245 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
4246 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
4247 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
4248 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
4249 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
4250 will be added elsewhere.
4251 [Steve Henson]
4252
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004253 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from

4255 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004259 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00004260 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
4261 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
4262 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
4263 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
4264 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
4265 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
4266 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
4267 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
4268 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
4269 to produce the required SET OF.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004277 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
Dr. Stephen Hensonecbe0782000-12-31 01:13:04 +00004278 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
4279 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
4280 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
4281 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
4282 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.

4284
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004285 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
Dr. Stephen Henson4e1209e2000-12-30 02:40:26 +00004286 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of

Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00004313 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
4314 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004317 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004321 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +00004322 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
4323 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
4324 storing which locks are currently held by the program.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004327 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +00004328 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
4329 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
4330 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
4331 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
4332 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
4333 [Bodo Moeller]
4334
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004335 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.

4337
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004338 *) Move common extension printing code to new function

4342
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004343 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some

4345 [Steve Henson]
4346
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004347 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
Dr. Stephen Henson06db4252000-12-13 23:54:30 +00004348 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
4349 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
4350 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
4351 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
4352 order did not reflect the encoded order.
4353 [Steve Henson]

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004355 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.

4357
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004358 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
Dr. Stephen Henson2aff7722000-12-13 13:47:33 +00004359 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
4360 for now but they will eventually go away.
4361 [Steve Henson]

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004363 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00004364 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
4365 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
4366 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
4367 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
4368 has also been converted to the new form.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004371 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00004372 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
4373 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
4374 for negative moduli.
4375 [Bodo Moeller]
4376
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004377 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004381 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be

4383 [Bodo Moeller]
4384
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004385 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
Geoff Thorpef1919c32000-12-04 03:35:35 +00004386 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions

4420 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
4421 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
4422 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.

4424
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004425 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the

4427
4428 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
4429
4430 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
4431 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
4432 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
4433 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
4434 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().

Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00004468 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r

4477 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
4478 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
4479 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
4480
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004481 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00004482 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4483 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00004484 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4485 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00004486 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004491 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00004492 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
4493 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
4494 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
4495 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
4496
4497 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
4498 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
4499 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
4500 cause any problems.
4501 [Bodo Moeller]
4502
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004503 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004510 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00004511 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a

4529 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
4530
4531 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
4532 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
4533 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
4534 libraries unless it's really needed.

4536 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.

Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00004591 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
4592 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
4593 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
4594 binary backward compatibility.

4672 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4673 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4674
4675 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4676 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4677 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4678 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4679 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4680 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4681 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4682 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4683 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

4873 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4874 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4875 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4876
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00004877 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4878 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4879 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4880 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4881 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4882 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4883
4884 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4885 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4886 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4887 BN_generate_prime().)
4888
4889 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4890 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4891 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4892 better.
4893 [Bodo Moeller]
4894
4895 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
4896 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
4897 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4898
4899 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
4900 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
4901 when using non-blocking I/O.
4902 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
4903
4904 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
4905 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
4906
4907 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
4908 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
4909 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4910
4911 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
4912 configuration for the versions before that.
4913 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4914
4915 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
4916 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
4917 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
4918 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
4919 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4920
4921 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
4922 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
4923 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
4924 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4925
4926 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
4927 value is 0.
4928 [Richard Levitte]
4929
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00004930 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
4931 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4932 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4933
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00004934 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
4935 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
4936
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00004937 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
4938 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
4939 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
4940 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
4941 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
4942 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
4943 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
4944 session cache.
4945
4946 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
4947 using a local variable.
4948 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4949
4950 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
4951 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
4952 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4953
4954 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
4955 [Richard Levitte]
4956
4957 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
4958 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
4959
4960 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
4961 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
4962 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
4963
4964 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
4965
4966 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
4967 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
4968 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
4969 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
4970 [Bodo Moeller]
4971
4972 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
4973 present.
4974 [Steve Henson]
4975
4976 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
4977 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
4978 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
4979 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
4980 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
4981
4982 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
4983 returns early because it has nothing to do.
4984 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4985
4986 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4987 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
4988 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4989
4990 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4991 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
4992 (Use engine 'keyclient')
4993 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
4994
4995 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
4996 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
4997 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
4998 modules).
4999 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
5000
5001 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5002 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
5003 from 0.9.7.
5004 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
5005
5006 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5007 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
5008 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5009 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
5010
5011 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
5012 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
5013 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5014 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
5015
5016 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
5017 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
5018
5019 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
5020 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
5021 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
5022 [Bodo Moeller]
5023
5024 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
5025 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
5026 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
5027 become invalid.
5028 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
5029
5030 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
5031 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
5032 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
5033 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
5034 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
5035 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
5036 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
5037 [Bodo Moeller]
5038
5039 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
5040 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
5041 one of the SSL handshake functions.
5042 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
5043
5044 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
5045 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
5046 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
5047 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
5048 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
5049 the client will at least see that alert.
5050 [Bodo Moeller]
5051
5052 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
5053 correctly.
5054 [Bodo Moeller]
5055
5056 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
5057 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
5058 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
5059
5060 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
5061 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
5062 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
5063 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
5064 HelloRequest.
5065
5066 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
5067 before just sending a HelloRequest.
5068 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
5069
5070 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
5071 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
5072 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
5073 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
5074 may leak via logfiles.)
5075
5076 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
5077 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
5078 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
5079 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
5080 the legal range.
5081 [Bodo Moeller]
5082
5083 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
5084 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5085 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5086
5087 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
5088 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
5089 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
5090 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
5091 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
5092 [Bodo Moeller]
5093
5094 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
5095 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
5096
5097 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
5098 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
5099 followed by modular reduction.
5100 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
5101
5102 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
5103 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
5104 [Bodo Moeller]
5105
5106 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
5107 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
5108 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
5109 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
5110 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5111
5112 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
5113 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5114
5115 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
5116 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
5117 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5118
5119 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
5120 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
5121 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
5122 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
5123 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
5124 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
5125 automatically.
5126 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
5127
5128 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
5129 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
5130 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
5131 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
5132 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
5133
5134 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
5135 [Andy Polyakov]
5136
5137 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
5138 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
5139 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
5140 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
5141 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
5142 to allow the necessary settings.
5143 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5144
5145 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
5146 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
5147 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
5148 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
5149 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5150
5151 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
5152 dh->length and always used
5153
5154 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
5155
5156 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
5157 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
5158 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
5159 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
5160 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
5161 dh->length.
5162
5163 So switch back to
5164
5165 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
5166
5167 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
5168 otherwise.
5169 [Bodo Moeller]
5170
5171 *) In
5172
5173 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
5174 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
5175 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
5176 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
5177
5178 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
5179 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
5180 always reject numbers >= n.
5181 [Bodo Moeller]
5182
5183 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
5184 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
5185 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
5186 variable) is not atomic.
5187 [Bodo Moeller]
5188
5189 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
5190 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
5191 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
5192 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
5193
5194 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
5195 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
5196
5197 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
5198 little-endian MIPS.
5199 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
5200
5201 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
5202 [Richard Levitte]
5203
5204 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
5205
5206 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
5207 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
5208 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
5209 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
5210 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
5211 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
5212 to traverse all of 'state'.
5213
5214 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
5215 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
5216 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
5217
5218 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
5219 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
5220
5221 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
5222 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
5223 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
5224 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
5225 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
5226 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
5227 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
5228 further strengthens the PRNG.
5229 [Bodo Moeller]
5230
5231 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
5232 [Andy Polyakov]
5233
5234 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
5235 an error message in this case.
5236 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5237
5238 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
5239 [Steve Henson]
5240
5241 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
5242 positive and less than q.
5243 [Bodo Moeller]
5244
5245 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
5246 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
5247 that itself.
5248 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
5249
5250 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
5251 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
5252 [Bodo Moeller]
5253
5254 *) Fix OAEP check.
5255 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
5256
5257 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
5258 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
5259 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
5260 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
5261 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
5262 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
5263 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
5264 paper.)
5265
5266 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
5267 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
5268 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
5269 detect the supposedly ignored error.
5270
5271 Both problems are now fixed.
5272 [Bodo Moeller]
5273
5274 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
5275 (previously it was 1024).
5276 [Bodo Moeller]
5277
5278 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
5279 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
5280 [Steve Henson]
5281
5282 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
5283 [Steve Henson]
5284
5285 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
5286 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
5287 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
5288 [Steve Henson]
5289
5290 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
5291 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
5292 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
5293 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
5294 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
5295 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
5296 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
5297 environment variables.
5298
5299 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
5300 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
5301 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
5302 [Bodo Moeller]
5303
5304 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
5305 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
5306 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
5307 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
5308 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
5309 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
5310 [Bodo Moeller]
5311
5312 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
5313 versions of 'test'.
5314 [Bodo Moeller]
5315
5316 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
5317
5318 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
5319 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
5320
5321 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
5322 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
5323 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
5324 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
5325 CygWin.
5326 [Richard Levitte]
5327
5328 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
5329 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
5330 amount of data available.
5331 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
5332 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5333
5334 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
5335 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
5336 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
5337 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
5338 [Bodo Moeller]
5339
5340 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
5341 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
5342 and UnixWare.
5343 [Richard Levitte]
5344
5345 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
5346 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
5347 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
5348 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
5349 [Ulf Moeller]
5350
5351 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
5352 [Andy Polyakov]
5353
5354 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
5355 [Richard Levitte]
5356
5357 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
5358 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
5359 [Steve Henson]
5360 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5361
5362 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
5363 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
5364 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
5365 (but broken) behaviour.
5366 [Steve Henson]
5367
5368 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
5369 it when found.
5370 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
5371
5372 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
5373 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
5374 [Bodo Moeller]
5375
5376 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
5377 did not exist.
5378 [Bodo Moeller]
5379
5380 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
5381 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
5382
5383 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
5384 [Richard Levitte]
5385
5386 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
5387 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
5388 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
5389
5390 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
5391 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
5392 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
5393 [Steve Henson]
5394
5395 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
5396 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
5397 [Ulf Moeller]
5398
5399 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
5400 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
5401
5402 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
5403
5404 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
5405
5406 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
5407 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
5408 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
5409 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
5410 [Bodo Moeller]
5411
5412 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
5413 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5414
5415 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
5416 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
5417 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5418
5419 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
5420 was empty.
5421 [Steve Henson]
5422 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5423
5424 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
5425 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
5426 but the code is actually correct.
5427 [Steve Henson]
5428
5429 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
5430 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
5431 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
5432 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
5433 and leaves the highest bit random.
5434 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
5435
5436 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
5437 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
5438 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
5439 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
5440 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
5441 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
5442 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
5443 [Bodo Moeller]
5444
5445 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
5446 [Ulf Moeller]
5447
5448 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
5449 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
5450 [Steve Henson]
5451
5452 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
5453 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
5454 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
5455 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
5456 headers.
5457 [Richard Levitte]
5458
5459 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
5460 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
5461 and break the signature.
5462 [Steve Henson]
5463 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5464
5465 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
5466 DH ciphersuites.
5467 [Steve Henson]
5468
5469 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
5470 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
5471 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
5472 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
5473 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
5474 [Bodo Moeller]
5475
5476 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
5477 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5478
5479 *) ./config script fixes.
5480 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
5481
5482 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
5483 [Bodo Moeller]
5484
5485 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
5486 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
5487 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
5488 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
5489 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
5490
5491 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
5492 call failed, free the DSA structure.
5493 [Bodo Moeller]
5494
5495 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
5496 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
5497 [Steve Henson]
5498
5499 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
5500 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
5501 when writing a 32767 byte record.
5502 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
5503
5504 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
5505 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
5506
5507 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
5508 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
5509 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
5510 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
5511 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
5512
5513 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
5514 [Bodo Moeller]
5515
5516 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
5517 [Ulf Möller]
5518
5519 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
5520 [Ulf Möller]
5521
5522 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
5523 [Bodo Moeller]
5524
5525 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
5526 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
5527 [Bodo Moeller]
5528
5529 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
5530 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
5531 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
5532 result of the server certificate verification.)
5533 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5534
5535 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
5536 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
5537 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
5538 [Bodo Moeller]
5539
5540 *) Fix SSL_peek:
5541 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
5542 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
5543 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
5544 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
5545 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
5546 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
5547 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
5548 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
5549 [Bodo Moeller]
5550
5551 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
5552 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
5553 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
5554 happening the other way round.
5555 [Geoff Thorpe]
5556
5557 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
5558 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
5559 [Bodo Moeller]
5560
5561 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
5562 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
5563 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
5564 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
5565 [Richard Levitte]
5566
5567 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
5568 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
5569
5570 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
5571
5572 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
5573 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
5574 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
5575 that.
5576
5577 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
5578
5579 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
5580
5581 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
5582 static ones.
5583 [Richard Levitte]
5584
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00005585 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
5586
5587 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
5588 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
5589 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
5590 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
5591 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
5592
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00005593 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
5594 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
5595 matter what.
5596 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00005597
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00005598 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
5599 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5600
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00005601 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00005602
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00005603 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
5604 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
5605 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
5606 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
5607 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00005608 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00005609 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
5610 by the Finished messages.
5611 [Bodo Moeller]
5612
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00005613 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
5614 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
5615
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00005616 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
5617 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
5618 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
5619 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
5620 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
5621 appropriately.
5622 [Steve Henson]
5623
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00005624 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
5625 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
5626 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
5627 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
5628 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
5629 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
5630 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
5631 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
5632 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
5633 together.
5634 [Steve Henson]
5635
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00005636 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
5637 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
5638 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
5639 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
5640
5641 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
5642 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
5643 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
5644 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
5645 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
5646 the answer.
5647
5648 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
5649 been tested well enough.
5650 [Richard Levitte]
5651
Bodo Möllerfe035192000-09-19 23:25:00 +00005652 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00005653 it can return incorrect results.
Bodo Möllercb1fbf82000-09-19 23:06:14 +00005654 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
5655 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00005656 [Bodo Moeller]
5657
Dr. Stephen Henson730e37e2000-09-18 12:30:57 +00005658 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
5659 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
5660 include zero length content when signing messages.
5661 [Steve Henson]
5662
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00005663 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
5664 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00005665 [Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00005666
Richard Levitte0e05f542000-09-15 21:22:50 +00005667 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
5668 [Richard Levitte]
5669
Ulf Möller1d84fd62000-09-14 18:37:53 +00005670 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
5671 wrong sign.
5672 [Ulf Möller]
5673
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00005674 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
5675 packages. The default package contains applications, application
5676 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
5677 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
5678 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
5679 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
5680 [Richard Levitte]
5681
Richard Levittecc995262000-09-14 13:11:56 +00005682 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
5683 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
5684
Richard Levitte72660f52000-09-14 12:48:48 +00005685 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
5686 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
5687
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00005688 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
5689 random number < q in the DSA library.
Ulf Möller523d7782000-09-13 02:01:35 +00005690 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00005691
Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00005692 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
5693 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
5694 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
5695 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
5696 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
5697 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
5698 just makes things more complicated.)
5699 [Bodo Moeller]
5700
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00005701 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
5702 from EGD.
5703 [Ben Laurie]
5704
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +00005705 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
5706 work better on such systems.
5707 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
5708
Dr. Stephen Henson84b65342000-09-07 23:14:26 +00005709 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
5710 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
5711 keyid to the certificates aux info.
5712 [Steve Henson]
5713
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +00005714 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
5715 if there was more than one signature.
5716 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
5717
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +00005718 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
5719 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
5720 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
5721 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
5722 [Richard Levitte]
5723
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005724 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
5725 rather than always using the current time.
5726 [Steve Henson]
5727
5728 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
5729 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
5730 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
5731 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
5732 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
5733 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005734
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005735 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
5736 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005737
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005738 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.

Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005740 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
5741 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
5742 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
5743 the same hash value.
5744
5745 As a result various functions (which were all internal
5746 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
5747 structure. This will break anything that messed round
5748 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005749
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005750 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
5751 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005752
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005753 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
5754 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
5755 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
5756 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
5757 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
5758 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
5759 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00005760
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00005761 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
5762
5763 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
5764 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
5765 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
5766 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
5767 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
5768 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
5769 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
5770 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
5771
5772 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
5773 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5774
5775 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
5776 to customise the verify behaviour.

Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00005779 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
5780 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
5781 [Steve Henson]
5782
5783 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
5784 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
5785 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
5786 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
5787 request is improperly encoded.

5789
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00005790 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
5791 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
5792 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00005793
5794 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.

5796
Bodo Möllerbbb8de02000-09-04 15:34:43 +00005797 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
5798 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
5799 words set to zero.)
5800 [Bodo Moeller]
5801
5802 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
5803 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
5804 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
5805 [Bodo Moeller]
5806
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +00005807 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
5808 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
5809 BIO/fp routines also added.
5810 [Steve Henson]
5811
Bodo Möllera545c6f2000-09-01 09:54:25 +00005812 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.

5814
Ben Laurie7049ef52000-08-30 18:14:28 +00005815 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
5816 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
5817 demos/state_machine.
5818 [Ben Laurie]
5819
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00005820 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
5821 generation and verification.
5822 [Steve Henson]
5823
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00005824 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
5825 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
5826 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
5827 encode and decode it manually.
5828 [Steve Henson]
5829
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00005830 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c

5832 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
5833
5834 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
5835 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
5836 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
5837 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
5838
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00005839 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
5840 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
5841 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
5842 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
5843 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
5844 [Steve Henson]
5845
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00005846 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
5847 [Richard Levitte]
5848
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00005849 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
5850 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
5851 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
5852
5853 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
5854 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
5855 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
5856 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
5857 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
5858 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
5859 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
5860 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
5861
5862 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
5863 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
5864
5865 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
5866
5867 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
5868 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
5869 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE

5871 [Richard Levitte]
5872
Richard Levitte368f8552000-08-17 10:25:46 +00005873 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
5874 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
5875 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
5876 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
5877 [Richard Levitte]
5878
Richard Levitte30094582000-08-14 14:05:53 +00005879 *) MD4 implemented.

Richard Levitte88364bc2000-08-11 19:43:20 +00005882 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
5883 [Richard Levitte]
5884
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00005885 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5886 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5887 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5888 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5889 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5890 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5891 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5892 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
5893 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
5894 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
5895 short or long names are found.
5896 [Steve Henson]
5897
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00005898 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.

Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00005901 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
5902 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
5903 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
5904 version rollback attacks was not effective.
5905
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00005906 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
5907 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
5908 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
5909 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
5910 [Bodo Moeller]
5911
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00005912 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
5913 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
5914 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
5915 [Richard Levitte]
5916
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00005917 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
5918 these print out strings and name structures based on various
5919 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
5920 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
5921 to allow the various flags to be set.
5922 [Steve Henson]
5923
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00005924 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
5925 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
5926 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
5927 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
5928 dates to be checked.
5929 [Steve Henson]
5930
5931 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
5932 negative public key encodings) on by default,
5933 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
5934 [Steve Henson]
5935
5936 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
5937 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
5938 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
5939 [Steve Henson]
5940
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +00005941 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
5942 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
5943 [Bodo Moeller]
5944
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +00005945 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
5946 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
5947 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
5948 are always statically linked for now, but there are
5949 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
Richard Levitte6bc847e2001-08-10 15:26:21 +00005950 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.

Ulf Möllerc0722722000-07-19 21:35:35 +00005953 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
5954 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
5955 Random Numbers.
5956 [Ulf Möller]
5957
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd13f0e2000-07-12 23:55:30 +00005958 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
5959 DSA key.
5960 [Steve Henson]
5961
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00005962 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
5963 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
5964 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
5965 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
5966 form signing output easier to verify.
5967 [Steve Henson]
5968
5969 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
5970 [Steve Henson]
5971
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00005972 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
5973 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
5974 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
5975 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
5976 are needed because all other string types have virtually
5977 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
5978 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
5979 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
5980 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
5981 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
5982 [Steve Henson]
5983
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00005984 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
5985
5986 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
5987 the syntax given in objects.README.
5988 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
5989 obj_mac.h.
5990 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
5991 obj_mac.h.
5992
5993 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
5994 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
5995 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
5996 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
5997 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
5998 consistent name changes.
5999 [Richard Levitte]
6000
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00006001 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
6002 [Bodo Moeller]
6003
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00006004 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00006005 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
6006 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
6007 environment variable, or the default random state file.

6009
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00006010 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
6011 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
6012 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
6013 of safestack.h .
6014 [Steve Henson]
6015
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00006016 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
6017 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
6018 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
6019 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
6020 [Steve Henson]
6021
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00006022 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
6023 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
6024 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
6025 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
6026 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
6027 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
6028 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
6029 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
6030 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00006031 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
6032 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.

6034
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00006035 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
6036 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
6037 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
6038 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
6039 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
6040 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
6041 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
6042 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
6043 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
6044 algorithm to openssl-dev.
6045 [Steve Henson]
6046
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00006047 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
6048 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
6049 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
6050 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
6051
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00006052 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
6053 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
6054 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
6055 omit any duplicate addresses.
6056 [Steve Henson]
6057
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00006058 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
6059 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
6060 [Bodo Moeller]
6061
6062 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
6063 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
6064 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
6065 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
6066 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
6067 [Bodo Moeller]
6068
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00006069 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other

6076
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00006077 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
6078 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).

6083
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00006084 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
6085 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
6086 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
6087 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
6088 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
6089 approach.
6090 [Geoff Thorpe]
6091
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00006092 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
6093 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
6094 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
6095 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
6096 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
6097 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
6098 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
6099 [Geoff Thorpe]
6100
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00006101 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
6102 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
6103 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
6104 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
6105 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
6106 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
6107 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
6108 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
6109 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
6110 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
6111 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)

Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00006114 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
6115 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
6116 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
6117 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.

6119
6120 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
6121 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
6122 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
6123 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
6124 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
6125
6126 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
6127 ciphers.
6128
6129 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00006130 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
6131 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
6132 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
6133
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00006134 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
6135
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00006136 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
6137 of macros.
6138
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00006139 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
6140 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
6141 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
6142 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00006143

6182
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00006183 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
6184 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
6185 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
6186 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
6187 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
6188 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
6189 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
6190 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
6191 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
6192 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
6193 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.

6211 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
6212 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
6213 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
6214 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.

6216
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00006217 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code

Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00006230 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
6231 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
6232 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
6233 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
6234 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
6235 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
6236 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
6237 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
6238 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
6239 or "the configuration storage API"...
6240
6241 The new configuration file reading functions are:
6242
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00006243 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,

Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00006248 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00006249
6250 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
6251 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
6252 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
6253 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
6254 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
6255 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
6256 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
6257
6258 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
6259 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.

6290 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()

Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00006304 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
6305 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00006306 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00006307 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00006308 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
6309 Additional arguments are always ignored.

Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00006321 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
6322 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
6323 its own key.
6324 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
6325 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
6326 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
6327 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.

6329
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00006330 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
6331 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
6332 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
6333 does not suppress any output.
6334 [Richard Levitte]
6335
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00006336 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The

6338 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
6339 with all the associated security issues.
6340
6341 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
6342 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
6343 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
6344 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
6345 use the value in the default purpose.

6431
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00006432 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
6433 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
6434 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
6435 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
6436 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
6437 counter, some don't.)
6438 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
6439 counters or duplicate objects.

6441
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00006442 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
6443 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
6444 [Steve Henson]

6449
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00006450 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
6451 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
6452 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
6453 or -rand.
6454 [Ulf Möller]
6455
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00006456 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
6457 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
6458 [Steve Henson]
6459
6460 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
6461 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
6462 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
6463 cipher list.
6464 [Steve Henson]
6465
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00006466 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
6467 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
6468 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
6469 [Steve Henson]
6470
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00006471 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
6472 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
6473 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
6474 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
6475 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
6476 should work without changes.

Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00006478
6479 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
6480 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
6481 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
6482 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
6483 must be defined. E.g.,
6484 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
6485 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
6486 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.

6491 [Bodo Moeller]
6492
Dr. Stephen Hensond754b382000-02-20 18:27:23 +00006493 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
6494 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
6495 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
6496 [Steve Henson]
6497
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00006498 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
6499 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
6500 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
6501 request header lines. Some software needs this.
6502 [Steve Henson]
6503
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00006504 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
6505 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
6506 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
6507 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
6508 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
6509 is prompted for as usual.
6510 [Steve Henson]
6511
Ben Lauriebd03b992000-02-16 22:15:39 +00006512 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
6513 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
6514 autodetect the card and use it if present.
6515 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
6516
Dr. Stephen Hensonde469ef2000-02-15 14:19:44 +00006517 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
6518 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
6519 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
6520 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.

6545
Ulf Möller4a6222d2000-02-06 00:25:39 +00006546 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are

6548 [Ulf Möller]
6549
Dr. Stephen Henson66430202000-02-05 21:07:56 +00006550 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line

6552 [Steve Henson]
6553
Ulf Möller9b141122000-02-05 14:17:32 +00006554 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
6555 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
6556 [Ulf Möller]
6557
6558 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()

6560 [Ulf Möller]
6561
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00006562 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
6563 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
6564 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
6565 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
6566 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
6567 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
6568 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
6569 [Steve Henson]
6570
Dr. Stephen Henson82fc1d92000-02-03 02:56:48 +00006571 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.

Ulf Möller98d0b2e2000-01-30 23:34:33 +00006582 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
6583 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
6584 [Ulf Möller]
6585
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006586 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
6587 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
6588 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
6589 has already seen).
6590 [Bodo Moeller]
6591
6592 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
6593 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
6594
6595 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
6596 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
6597 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
6598 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
6599 generation becomes much faster.
6600
6601 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00006602 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
6603 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
6604 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
6605 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
6606 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
6607 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
6608 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
6609 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
6610 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).

6612
Bodo Möller7865b872000-01-30 02:40:38 +00006613 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00006614 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
6615 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
6616 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00006617 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
6618 trial division stage.

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00006674 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
6675 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
6676 wrong.
6677
6678 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
6679 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
6680 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
6681
6682 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
6683 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
6684 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
6685 an error is flagged.
6686
6687 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
6688 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that

6702
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00006703 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
6704 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
6705 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
6706 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
6707 instead.
6708
6709 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
6710 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
6711 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
6712 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00006713 because they handle more complex structures.)

Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00006722 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data

Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00006725 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
6726 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate

Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006757 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
6758 [Ulf Möller]
6759
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00006760 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
6761 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
6762 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
6763 international characters are used.
6764
6765 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
6766 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
6767 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
6768 in ASN1 order.
6769 [Steve Henson]
6770
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006771 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
6772 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
6773 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
6774 request.
6775
6776 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
6777 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
6778 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
6779 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006780 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006781 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
6782
6783 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
6784 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
6785 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006786 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00006787
6788 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
6789 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
6790 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
6791 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
6792 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
6793 types at all.
6794 [Steve Henson]
6795
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00006796 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
6797 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
6798 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
6799 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
6800 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
6801
6802 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
6803 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
6804 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
6805 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
Bodo Möllerf2d9a322000-01-06 00:24:24 +00006806 [Bodo Moeller]
6807
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00006808 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
6809 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00006810 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00006811 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
6812 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
6813 SHA1.
6814 [Andy Polyakov]
6815
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00006816 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
6817 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
6818 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
6819 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
6820 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
6821 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
6822 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
6823 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
6824
6825 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
6826 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00006827 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00006828 [Steve Henson]
6829
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00006830 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
6831 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
6832 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
6833 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
6834 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
6835 support to pkcs8 application.
6836 [Steve Henson]
6837
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00006838 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
6839 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
6840 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
6841 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
6842 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
6843 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
6844 [Bodo Moeller]
6845
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00006846 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
6847 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
6848 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
6849 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
6850 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
6851 consistency.
6852 [Bodo Moeller]
6853
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00006854 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
6855 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
6856 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
6857 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
6858 example.
6859 [Steve Henson]
6860
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00006861 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
6862 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
6863 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
6864 and any application specific purposes.
6865
6866 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6867 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6868 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6869 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00006870 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00006871 if the certificate is self signed.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00006874 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6875 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6876 [Steve Henson]
6877
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00006878 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6879 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00006880 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00006881 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6882 [Steve Henson]
6883
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00006884 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6885 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6886 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6887 Update documentation.
6888 [Steve Henson]
6889
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00006890 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6891 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00006892 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00006893 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
6894 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
6895 [Steve Henson]
6896
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00006897 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
6898 for details.
6899 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
6900
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00006901 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
6902 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
6903 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00006904 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
6905 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
6906 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00006907 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
6908 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
6909 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
6910 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00006911
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00006912 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
6913
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00006914 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6915 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6916 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
6917 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
6918 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00006919
6920 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
6921 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00006922 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
6923 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
6924 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
6925 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
6926 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
6927 request additional information:
6928 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
6929 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00006930
6931 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
6932 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
6933 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
6934 options.
6935
6936 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
6937 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
6938
6939 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
6940 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
6941 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
6942
6943 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00006944 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00006945
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00006946 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
6947 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
6948 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
6949 algorithm.
6950 [Steve Henson]
6951
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00006952 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
6953 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
6954 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
6955
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00006956 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
6957 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
6958 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
6959 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
6960 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
6961 included in OpenSSL.
6962 [Steve Henson]
6963
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00006964 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
6965 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
6966 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
6967 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
6968 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
6969 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
6970 [Bodo Moeller]
6971
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00006972 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
6973 PKCS12 structure.
6974 [Steve Henson]
6975
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00006976 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
6977 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
6978 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
6979 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
6980 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
6981 structure.
6982 [Steve Henson]
6983
6984 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
6985 need initialising.
6986 [Steve Henson]
6987
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00006988 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
6989 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
6990 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
6991 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
6992 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
6993 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
6994 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
6995 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
6996 be maintained manually.
6997
6998 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
6999 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
7000 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
7001 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
7002 work because people forget to call this function]
7003 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
7004 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
7005 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
7006 [Steve Henson]
7007
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00007008 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
7009 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
7010 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
7011 should be discouraged from doing it.
7012 [Ben Laurie]
7013
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00007014 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
7015 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
7016 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
7017 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
7018 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
7019 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
7020 [Steve Henson]
7021
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00007022 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
7023 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
7024 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00007025
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00007026 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00007027 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
7028 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00007029
7030 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
7031 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
7032 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
7033 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
7034 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
7035 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00007036
7037 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
7038 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
7039 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00007040
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00007041 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
7042 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
7043 and vice versa.
7044
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00007045 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
7046 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
7047 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
7048 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00007049 [Steve Henson]
7050
7051 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00007052 [Steve Henson]
7053
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00007054 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
7055 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
7056 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
7057 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
7058 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007059 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00007060 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
7061 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
7062 keys so we should be OK.
7063
7064 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
7065 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
7066 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
7067 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
7068 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
7069 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007070 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00007071
7072 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
7073 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
7074 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
7075
7076 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00007077 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
7078 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
7079 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
7080 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
7081 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
7082 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00007083 [Steve Henson]
7084
7085 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
7086 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
7087 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
7088 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
7089 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
7090 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
7091 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
7092 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
7093 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
7094 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
7095 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
7096 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
7097 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.

Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00007100 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
7101 [Steve Henson]
7102
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00007103 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
7104 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
7105 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
7106 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
7107 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
7108 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
7109 single self signed certificate. This means that:
7110 openssl verify ss.pem
7111 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
7112 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
7113 is OK.
7114 [Steve Henson]
7115
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00007116 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
7117 (and add it to external session representation).
7118 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
7119 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
7120 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
7121 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
7122 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
7123 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
7124 security holes.

7126
Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00007127 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
7128 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
7129 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.

7133 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
7134 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
7135 [Steve Henson]
7136
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00007137 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
7138 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
7139 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust

Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00007143 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments

7146
Dr. Stephen Henson06556a11999-11-14 23:10:50 +00007147 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
7148 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
7149 certificate auxiliary information.
7150 [Steve Henson]
7151
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00007152 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document

7154 [Steve Henson]
7155
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00007156 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
7157 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00007158 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
7159 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
7160 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
7161 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
7162 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.

7164
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00007165 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the

7167 [Steve Henson]
7168
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00007169 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
7170 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
7171 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
7172 manpages and fix a few bugs.
7173 [Steve Henson]
7174
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00007175 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.

7177
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00007178 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
7179 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
7180 [Steve Henson]
7181
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00007182 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
7183 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
7184 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
7185 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
7186 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007187 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00007188 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
7189 using the new 'x509' options.
7190
7191 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
7192 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
7193 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
7194 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
7195 for all purposes.
7196 [Steve Henson]
7197
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00007198 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
7199 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
7200 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
7201 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
7202 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.

7204
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00007205 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
7206 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
7207 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
7208 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
7209 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007210 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00007211 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
7212 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
7213 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
7214 the key length and effective key length are equal.
7215 [Steve Henson]
7216
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00007217 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
7218 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
7219 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
7220 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
7221 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
7222 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
7223 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
7224 [Steve Henson]
7225
7226 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
7227 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
7228 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
7229 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
7230 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
7231 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
7232 openssl.cnf for more info.
7233 [Steve Henson]
7234
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00007235 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00007236 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00007237 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
7238 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
7239 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
7240 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
7241 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
7242 md should be large enough anyway.
7243 [Bodo Moeller]
7244
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007245 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
7246 for handling the random seed file.
7247
7248 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
7249 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007250 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007251 s_client,
7252 s_server,
7253 x509 (when signing).
7254 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
7255 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00007256 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007257

Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007259 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00007260 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00007261 that support '-rand'.

7263
7264 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
7265 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
7266 [Bodo Moeller]
7267
7268 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
7269 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
7270 [Bill Perry]
7271
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00007272 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
7273 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
7274 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
7275 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
7276 is suitable.
7277 [Steve Henson]
7278
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00007279 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
7280 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
7281 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
7282 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
7283 [Steve Henson]
7284
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00007285 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
7286 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
7287 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
7288 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
7289 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
7290 print out all the purposes.
7291 [Steve Henson]
7292
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00007293 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
7294 functions.
7295 [Steve Henson]
7296
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00007297 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
7298 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
7299 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
7300 single function call.
7301 [Steve Henson]
7302
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00007303 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
7304 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
7305 [Andy Polyakov]
7306
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00007307 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
7308 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
7309 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
7310 [Steve Henson]
7311
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00007312 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
7313 when producing the local key id.
7314 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7315
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00007316 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
7317 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
7318 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
7319 "server.pem".
7320 [Steve Henson]
7321
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00007322 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
7323 a public key to be input or output. For example:
7324 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
7325 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
7326 [Steve Henson]
7327
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00007328 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
7329 in the message. This was handled by allowing
7330 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
7331 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
7332
7333 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
7334 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
7335 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
7336 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7337
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00007338 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
7339 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
7340 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
7341 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
7342 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
7343 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
7344 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
7345 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
7346 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
7347 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
7348 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
7349 trivial: move one line.
7350 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
7351
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00007352 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
7353 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
7354 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
7355 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
7356 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
7357 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
7358 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
7359 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
7360 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
7361 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
7362 with an event loop for example.
7363 [Steve Henson]
7364
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00007365 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
7366 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
7367 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
7368 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
7369 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
7370 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
7371 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
7372 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
7373 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
7374 [Steve Henson]
7375
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00007376 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
7377 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
7378 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007379 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00007380 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
7381 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
7382 [Steve Henson]
7383
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00007384 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
7385 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
7386 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).

7388
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00007389 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
7390 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
7391 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
7392 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
7393 key generation.

7399
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00007400 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
7401 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
7402 [Steve Henson]
7403
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00007404 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate

7407
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00007408 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol

7411 [Bodo Moeller]
7412
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00007413 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
7414 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
7415 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
7416 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
7417 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.

Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00007420 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
7421 [Andy Polyakov]
7422
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00007423 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
7424 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
7425 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
7426 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
7427 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
7428 in ca.
7429 [Steve Henson]
7430
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00007431 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
7432 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
7433 1.OU="Unit name 1"
7434 2.OU="Unit name 2"
7435 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
7436 [Steve Henson]
7437
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00007438 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
7439 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
7440 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
7441 are otherwise ignored at present.
7442 [Steve Henson]
7443
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00007444 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00007445 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00007446 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
7447 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
7448 copied until the next read.
7449 [Steve Henson]
7450
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00007451 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
7452 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
7453 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
7454 [Steve Henson]
7455
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00007456 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
7457 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
7458 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
7459 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
7460 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
7461 associated functions.
7462 [Steve Henson]
7463
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00007464 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
7465 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
7466 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
7467 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
7468 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
7469 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
7470 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
7471 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
7472 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00007473 memory BIOs.
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00007474 [Steve Henson]
7475
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00007476 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
7477 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
7478 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
7479 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
7480 [Bodo Moeller]
7481
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00007482 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
7483 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
7484 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
7485 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
7486 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
7487 functionality.
7488 [Steve Henson]
7489
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00007490 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
7491 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
7492 under Win32.
7493 [Steve Henson]
7494
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00007495 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00007496 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
7497 extensions to be obtained and added.
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00007498 [Steve Henson]
7499
Bodo Möller1b1a6e71999-08-09 13:01:48 +00007500 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
7501 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
7502 [Bodo Moeller]
7503
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00007504 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
Ralf S. Engelschalldfbaf951999-08-08 19:12:26 +00007505
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00007506 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
Ralf S. Engelschalldfbaf951999-08-08 19:12:26 +00007507 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00007508
Ralf S. Engelschall96395151999-08-08 10:15:43 +00007509 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
7510 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
7511
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00007512 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
7513 program.
7514 [Steve Henson]
7515
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00007516 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
7517 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
7518 DH parameters contain its length).
7519
7520 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
7521 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
7522 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
7523 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
7524 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
7525 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
7526 utter importance to use
7527 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7528 or
7529 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7530 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
7531 attacks may become possible!
7532 [Bodo Moeller]
7533
7534 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
7535 [Bodo Moeller]
7536
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00007537 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
7538 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
7539 [Steve Henson]
7540
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00007541 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
7542 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
7543 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
7544 or long name.
7545 [Steve Henson]
7546
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00007547 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
7548 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
7549 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
7550 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00007551 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
7552 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
7553 private key operations.
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00007554 [Steve Henson]
7555
Andy Polyakova0618e31999-07-25 15:13:49 +00007556 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
7557 [Andy Polyakov]
7558
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00007559 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
7560 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
7561 to
7562 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
7563 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
7564 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
7565 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
7566 the password callback is called.
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00007567 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00007568
7569 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
7570
7571 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
7572 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
7573 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
7574 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
7575 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
7576 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
7577 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00007578
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00007579 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
7580 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
7581 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00007582 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
Bodo Möller57119941999-07-29 12:57:23 +00007583 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
7584 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00007585 [Bodo Moeller]
7586
Andy Polyakov73634551999-07-20 15:50:20 +00007587 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
7588 [Andy Polyakov]
7589
Ulf Möller64344501999-07-16 00:50:45 +00007590 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
7591 delete an unused file.
7592 [Ulf Möller]
7593
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00007594 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
7595 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
7596 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
7597 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
7598 [Steve Henson]
7599
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00007600 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
7601 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
7602 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
7603 of an error.
7604 [Bodo Moeller]
7605
Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00007606 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
7607 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
7608 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7609
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00007610 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
7611 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
7612 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
7613 comparison" warnings.
7614 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00007615 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00007616
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5139391999-07-11 12:40:46 +00007617 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
7618 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
7619 derived keys are printed to stderr.
7620 [Steve Henson]
7621
Dr. Stephen Henson0ab8beb1999-07-11 12:30:55 +00007622 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
7623 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
7624
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00007625 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
7626 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
7627
7628 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
7629 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
7630 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
7631
7632 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
7633 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
7634 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
7635 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
7636 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
7637 this bug.
7638 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
7639
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00007640 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
7641 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00007642 Applications can use
7643 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
7644 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
7645 "off" is now the default.
7646 The library internally uses
7647 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
7648 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
7649 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
7650
7651 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
7652 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00007653
7654 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
7655 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
7656 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00007657
7658 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
7659
7660 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
7661 extensions.
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00007662 [Bodo Moeller]
7663
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00007664 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
7665 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
7666 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00007667 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00007668
7669 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
7670 a single record has been written.
7671 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
7672 retries use the same buffer location.
7673 (But all of the contents must be
7674 copied!)
7675 [Bodo Moeller]
7676
Bodo Möller4b49bf62001-05-10 09:33:18 +00007677 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00007678 worked.

Ulf Möller5271ebd1999-06-30 00:42:56 +00007680 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
7681 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
7682
Dr. Stephen Hensonce8b2571999-06-29 22:22:42 +00007683 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
7684 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
7685 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
7686 [Steve Henson]
7687
Bodo Möller9c729e01999-06-25 14:04:10 +00007688 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
7689 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
7690 test programs.

7692
Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00007693 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
7694 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
7695 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
7696 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
7697 point to the end.

7699 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
7700
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00007701 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
7702 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
7703 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
7704 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
7705 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
7706 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
7707 [Steve Henson]
7708
Dr. Stephen Hensondbd665c1999-06-22 01:38:31 +00007709 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the

7712 [Steve Henson]
7713
Bodo Möllerf76a8081999-06-21 11:32:25 +00007714 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00007715 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure

7719
Dr. Stephen Henson8623f691999-06-20 17:36:11 +00007720 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config

7723 [Steve Henson]
7724
Bodo Möllera1113061999-06-18 16:14:18 +00007725 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
7726 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions

7750
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7d135b1999-06-10 17:32:52 +00007751 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
7752 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to

Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00007761 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
7762 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
7763 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
7764 unusual formatting.

7766
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00007767 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed

7769 [Steve Henson]
7770
7771 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c

7799
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00007800 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
7801 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
7802 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
7803 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested

7805 of v2.0.

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00007812 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
7813 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
7814 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
7815 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
7816 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
7817 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
7818 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
7819 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
7820 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
7821 [Steve Henson]
7822
Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00007823 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00007824 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
7825 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
7826 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
7827 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
7828 value doesn't matter.

Ulf Möllere14d4441999-05-20 01:43:07 +00007892 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
7893 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
7894 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7895
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00007896 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
7897 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
7898 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
7899 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
7900 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
7901 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
7902 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
7903 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
7904 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
7905 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
7906 [Steve Henson]
7907
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00007908 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
7909 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
7910 [Steve Henson]
7911
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00007912 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00007913 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00007914 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
7915 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
7916 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
7917
7918 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
7919 [Bodo Moeller]
7920
Dr. Stephen Henson84fa7041999-05-16 00:25:36 +00007921 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious

7923 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
7924 [Steve Henson]

7927 [Ben Laurie]
7928
Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00007929 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
7930 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
7931 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
7932 key elements as negative integers.

7940
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5eac851999-05-12 01:56:27 +00007941 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be

7943 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
7944 [Steve Henson]

Bodo Möllerb31b04d1999-05-11 07:43:16 +00007946 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
7947 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
7948 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
7949 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as

7960
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00007961 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to

7964
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00007965 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
7966 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
7967 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
7968 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
7969 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
7970 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
7971 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
7972 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
7973 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
7974
7975 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
7976 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
7977 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
7978 does not influence s as it used to.
7979
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00007980 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00007981 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
7982 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
7983 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
7984 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
7985 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00008031 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the

8068 [Bodo Moeller]
8069
Bodo Möllerddeee821999-04-28 22:06:19 +00008070 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to

8072 such as /usr/local/bin.
8073 [Bodo Moeller]
8074
Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00008075 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.

Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00008077
Ulf Möllerf5d7a031999-04-27 01:14:46 +00008078 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
8079 [Ulf Möller]
8080
Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00008081 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
8082 extension adding in x509 utility.
8083 [Steve Henson]
8084
Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00008085 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
8086 [Ulf Möller]
8087
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00008088 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
8089 prototypes.
8090 [Steve Henson]
8091
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00008092 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.

Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00008094
Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00008095 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
8096 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
8097 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
8098 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
8099 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
8100 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
8101 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
8102 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00008103 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
8104 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

8109
Bodo Möller85f48f71999-04-22 14:28:38 +00008110 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
8111 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
8112 [Bodo Moeller]
8113
Bodo Möller90b8bbb1999-04-22 13:38:03 +00008114 *) Fix some race conditions.

8116
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00008117 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate

8123
Ben Laurie49971381999-04-21 13:24:58 +00008124 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of

8157 [Ben Laurie]
8158
Dr. Stephen Hensonc83e5231999-04-17 23:55:39 +00008159 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00008194 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
8195 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
8196 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
8197 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
8198 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
8199 [Ben Laurie]
8200
Ralf S. Engelschallf9a25931999-04-12 11:45:14 +00008201 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
8202 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
8203 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
8204 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.

8206
Ralf S. Engelschall2f0cd191999-04-12 10:36:16 +00008207 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
8208 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
8209 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
8210 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8211
Ralf S. Engelschall268c2101999-04-12 09:59:05 +00008212 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the

8215 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8216
Bodo Möllerfc8ee061999-04-11 02:49:35 +00008217 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
8218 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
8219 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
8220 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
8221 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
8222 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
8223 [Bodo Moeller]

8257 [Steve Henson]
8258

8325 [Ben Laurie]
8326
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00008327 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
8328 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
8329 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
8330 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
8331 [Steve Henson]
8332
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00008333 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
8334 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
8335 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
8336 [Steve Henson]
8337
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00008338 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
8339 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
8340 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is

Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00008377 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
8378 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
8379 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
8380 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
8381 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
8382 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
8383 openssl_bio.xs.
8384 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8385
Ben Laurie26a08461999-03-07 15:08:38 +00008386 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.

Ben Laurie7d3ce7b1999-03-07 14:17:32 +00008389 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
8390 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
8391
Ben Laurieefadf601999-03-07 15:21:08 +00008392 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.

8394
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00008395 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
8396 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
8397 in CRLs.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00008398 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00008399
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00008400 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
8401 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
8402 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
8403 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
8404 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
8405 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
8406 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
8407 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
8408 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
8409 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
8410 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8411
Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +00008412 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
8413 [Ben Laurie]
8414
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +00008415 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
8416 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
8417 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
8418 for linking it into DSOs.
8419 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8420
Ben Laurief415fa31999-03-06 14:09:36 +00008421 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
8422 Fixed.
8423 [Ben Laurie]
8424
Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +00008425 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
8426 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
8427 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
8428 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
8429 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
8430 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8431
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00008432 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
8433 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
8434 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
8435 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
8436 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
8437 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
8438 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8439
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00008440 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
8441 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
8442 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
8443 encryption.
8444 [Ben Laurie]
8445
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00008446 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
8447 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
8448 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
8449 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
8450 [Steve Henson]
8451
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00008452 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
8453 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
8454 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
8455 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
8456 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
8457 field as blank.
Dr. Stephen Henson9985bed1999-03-04 23:29:51 +00008458 [Steve Henson]
8459
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +00008460 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
8461 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
8462 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
8463 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
8464 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8465
Ralf S. Engelschalla06c6021999-03-04 07:54:01 +00008466 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
8467 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
8468 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8469
Ralf S. Engelschall8d697db1999-03-04 07:47:27 +00008470 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
8471 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8472
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +00008473 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
8474 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
8475 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
8476 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
8477 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
8478 [Steve Henson]
8479
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00008480 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
8481 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
8482 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
8483 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
8484 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00008485 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
8486 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
8487 [Ben Laurie]
8488
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00008489 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
8490 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
8491 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
8492 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
8493 [Ben Laurie]
Ralf S. Engelschall74d7abc1999-02-27 12:17:40 +00008494
8495 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
8496 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
Ralf S. Engelschall0172f981999-01-30 11:36:05 +00008497
Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00008498 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
8499 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
8500 [Steve Henson]
8501
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00008502 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
8503 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
8504 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
8505 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
8506 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
8507 (e.g. s_server).
8508 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
8509 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
8510 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
8511 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
8512 no way to reconfigure them.
8513 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
8514 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
8515 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
8516 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
8517 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
8518 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8519
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00008520 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
8521 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
8522 recognized by the users.
8523 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8524
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00008525 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
8526 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
8527 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
8528 already masked variable.

8530
Ralf S. Engelschalldef9f431999-02-25 10:54:27 +00008531 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c

8533
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +00008534 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
8535 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
8536 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
8537 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8538
Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +00008539 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
8540 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
8541 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8542
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00008543 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
8544 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
8545 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
8546 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
8547 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
8548 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
8549 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
8550 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
8551 now, too.
8552 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8553
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00008554 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
8555 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
8556 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8557
Dr. Stephen Hensona43aa731999-02-23 00:07:46 +00008558 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
8559 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
8560 config file.
8561 [Steve Henson]
8562
Ben Laurie0849d131999-02-22 21:21:08 +00008563 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
8564 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8565
Ben Laurie06ab81f1999-02-21 20:03:24 +00008566 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
8567 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
8568 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
8569 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
8570 [Ben Laurie]
8571
Dr. Stephen Hensondeff75b1999-02-21 17:41:08 +00008572 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
8573 [Steve Henson]
8574
Dr. Stephen Henson0c8a1281999-02-21 17:39:07 +00008575 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
8576 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8577
Ben Laurie4004dbb1999-02-20 11:50:07 +00008578 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.

8580
Dr. Stephen Henson0ca5f8b1999-02-19 01:29:29 +00008581 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
8582 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
8583 [Steve Henson]
8584
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00008585 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
8586 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
8587 [Steve Henson]
8588
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00008589 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
8590 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
8591 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
8592 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
8593 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
8594 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.

8599 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8600
8601 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
8602 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
8603 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
8604 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00

8606
Dr. Stephen Hensona8236c81999-02-15 21:05:21 +00008607 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
8608 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00008609 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c

8611
Dr. Stephen Henson388ff0b1999-02-14 16:48:22 +00008612 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
8613 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
8614 an example.

8620
Dr. Stephen Henson5c008791999-02-14 00:40:13 +00008621 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
8622 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
8623 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
8624 build instructions.
8625 [Steve Henson]
8626
Dr. Stephen Henson9becf661999-02-13 23:13:32 +00008627 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
8628 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
8629 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
8630 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
8631 [Steve Henson]
8632
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +00008633 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
8634 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
8635 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
8636 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
8637 [Ben Laurie]
8638
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +00008639 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
8640 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
8641 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
8642 so it wasn't spotted.

8644
Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +00008645 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
8646 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
8647 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
8648 vectors if you have them.
8649 [Ben Laurie]
8650
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00008651 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
Ben Laurie436d3181999-02-13 12:39:50 +00008652 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
8653 [Ben Laurie]
8654
Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00008655 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
8656 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
8657 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
8658 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
8659 If you do a:
8660 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
8661 it will update them.

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00008664 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
8665 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
8666 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
8667 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
8668 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
8669 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
8670 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
8671 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8672
Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00008673 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
8674 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
8675 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
8676 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
8677 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
8678 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
8679 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
8680 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
8681 the crypto/md/ stuff).
8682 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8683
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00008684 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
8685 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
8686 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
8687 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
8688 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.

Ben Lauriea96e7811999-01-30 17:53:00 +00008701 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
8702 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.

Dr. Stephen Henson9fe84291999-01-29 01:53:55 +00008714 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
8715 few typos.
8716 [Steve Henson]
8717
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00008718 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
8719 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
8720 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
8721 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]

8730 [Steve Henson]
8731
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +00008732 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
8733 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
8734 [Steve Henson]
8735
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00008736 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
8737 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
8738 CA extensions.
8739 [Steve Henson]
8740
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00008741 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
8742 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.

Dr. Stephen Henson9aeaf1b1999-01-24 00:50:01 +00008745 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
8746 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
8747 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
8748 [Steve Henson]
8749
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00008750 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
8751 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
8752 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
8753 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
8754 properly to be processed.
8755 [Steve Henson]
8756
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +00008757 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
8758 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
8759 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
8760 [Ben Laurie]

8764
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00008765 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
8766 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
8767 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
8768 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
8769 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
8770 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
8771 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
8772 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
8773 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00008776 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
8777 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
8778 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
8779 to regenerate it if needed.

8787 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
8788 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
8789 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
8790 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.

8805 [Ben Laurie]
8806
Dr. Stephen Hensonee13f9b1999-01-14 18:25:07 +00008807 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
8808 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
8809 [Steve Henson]
8810
Dr. Stephen Henson27eb6221999-01-14 18:21:57 +00008811 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.

8813
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00008814 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
8815 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
8816 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
8817 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
8818 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
8819 OID is not part of the table.

8881 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
8882
Ralf S. Engelschall06d5b161999-01-02 12:59:33 +00008883 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
8884 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
