Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00005 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7 [xx XXX 2001]
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00006
Bodo Möllere9ad0d22001-07-10 10:49:34 +00007 OpenSSL 0.9.6a/0.9.6b (bugfix releases, 5 Apr 2001 and 9 July 2001)
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00008 and OpenSSL 0.9.7 were developed in parallel, based on OpenSSL 0.9.6.
Bodo Möllere9ad0d22001-07-10 10:49:34 +00009
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +000010 Change log entries are tagged as follows:
Bodo Möllerdaba4922001-07-25 17:17:24 +000011 -) applies to 0.9.6a/0.9.6b/0.9.6c only
12 *) applies to 0.9.6a/0.9.6b/0.9.6c and 0.9.7
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +000013 +) applies to 0.9.7 only
14
Ulf Möllerdcbbf832001-12-28 17:14:35 +000015 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
16 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
17 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
18
Bodo Möller3c89d782001-12-21 12:29:52 +000019 -) OpenSSL 0.9.6c released [21 dec 2001]
20
Ben Laurie7c517a02001-12-20 12:18:08 +000021 +) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
22 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
23
Bodo Möller66df02f2001-12-14 10:09:29 +000024 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
25 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
26 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
27 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
28 [Bodo Moeller]
29
Bodo Möllerb5348a02001-12-17 19:11:03 +000030 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
31 present.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf3e24ba2001-12-07 00:36:32 +000032 [Steve Henson]
33
Bodo Möller35e25252001-12-03 14:03:23 +000034 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
35 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
36 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
37 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
38 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
39
Dr. Stephen Henson21a85f12001-12-01 23:03:30 +000040 +) Add option to output public keys in req command.
41 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
42
Bodo Möller883b0c22001-11-23 20:58:40 +000043 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
44 returns early because it has nothing to do.
45 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
46
47 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine and 0.9.7 release:]
48 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
49 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
50
Bodo Möller898f8562001-11-23 21:12:44 +000051 -) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
52 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
53 (Use engine 'keyclient')
54 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
55
Bodo Möller1d4581c2001-11-22 11:09:42 +000056 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
57 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
58 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
59 modules).
60 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
61
Bodo Möller76c43362001-11-16 12:02:01 +000062 +) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
63 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
Bodo Möller3ba1f112001-11-15 22:32:11 +000064 [Bodo Moeller]
65
Bodo Möller83978bd2001-11-12 22:10:15 +000066 -) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
67 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
68 from 0.9.7.
69 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
70
71 -) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
72 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
73 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
74 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
75
76 -) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
77 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
78 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
79 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
80
Bodo Möllerc5571db2001-11-12 15:31:39 +000081 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
82 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
83
Bodo Möller7aa983c2001-11-10 15:14:00 +000084 +) New functions/macros
85
86 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
87 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
88 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
89 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
90
91 to request calling a callback function
92
93 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
94 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
95
96 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
97 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
98 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
99 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
100 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
101 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
102 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
103 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
104 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
105 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
106
107 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
108 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
109 [Bodo Moeller]
110
111 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
112 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
113 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
114 [Bodo Moeller]
115
Richard Levittea7b42002001-10-30 08:00:59 +0000116 +) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
117 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
118 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
119 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
120 the configuration scripts.
121
122 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
123 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
124 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
125
Dr. Stephen Henson7d5b04d2001-10-27 00:16:53 +0000126 +) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
127 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
128
Bodo Möller48b0cf82001-10-26 14:06:33 +0000129 +) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
130 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
131 when reusing an existing buffer.
132 [Bodo Moeller]
133
Bodo Möllerc602e7f2001-10-26 13:04:23 +0000134 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
135 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
Bodo Möller48b0cf82001-10-26 14:06:33 +0000136 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
Bodo Möllerc602e7f2001-10-26 13:04:23 +0000137 become invalid.
138 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
139
Dr. Stephen Henson1fc6d412001-10-26 12:40:38 +0000140 +) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
141 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
142 [Steve Henson]
143
Ben Laurie0e211562001-10-25 14:27:17 +0000144 +) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
145 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
146 [Ben Laurie]
147
Bodo Möller89da6532001-10-25 08:25:19 +0000148 +) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
149 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
150 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
151 has the same effect.
152 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
153
Bodo Möllerba1c6022001-10-25 06:09:51 +0000154 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
155 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
156 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
157 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
158 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
159 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
160 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
161 [Bodo Moeller]
162
Richard Levittec2e4f172001-10-24 21:21:12 +0000163 +) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
164 with DES_ instead. This because there are increasing clashes with
165 libdes and other des libraries that are currently used by other
166 projects. The old libdes interface is provided, as well as crypt(),
167 if openssl/des_old.h is included. Note that crypt() is no longer
168 declared in openssl/des.h.
169
170 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
171 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
172 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
173 will be completely removed.
174 [Richard Levitte]
175
Bodo Möller979689a2001-10-24 19:03:22 +0000176 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
177 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
178 one of the SSL handshake functions.
179 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
180
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1558bb2001-10-21 02:09:15 +0000181 +) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
182 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
183 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
184 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
185 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
186 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
187 particular extension is supported.
188 [Steve Henson]
189
Bodo Möllera661b652001-10-20 17:56:36 +0000190 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
191 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
192 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
193 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
194 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
195 the client will at least see that alert.
196 [Bodo Moeller]
197
Dr. Stephen Henson581f1c82001-10-17 00:37:12 +0000198 +) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
199 to retain compatibility with existing code.
200 [Steve Henson]
201
Dr. Stephen Henson20d21862001-10-16 01:24:29 +0000202 +) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
Dr. Stephen Henson50d194a2001-10-23 00:54:58 +0000203 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
204 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
205 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
206 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
207 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
208 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
209 requires the destination to be valid.
210
211 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
212 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
Dr. Stephen Henson20d21862001-10-16 01:24:29 +0000213 [Steve Henson]
214
Bodo Möller48948d52001-10-15 19:49:25 +0000215 +) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
216 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
217 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
218 [Bodo Moeller]
219
220 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
221 correctly.
222 [Bodo Moeller]
223
Richard Levitte285046e2001-10-04 12:27:39 +0000224 +) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
225 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
226
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +0000227 +) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
228 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
229 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
230 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
231 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
232 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
233 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
234 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
235 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
236 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
237 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
238 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
239 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
240 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
241 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
242 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
243 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
244 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
245 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
246 the new code.
247 [Geoff Thorpe]
248
Dr. Stephen Hensond46c1a82001-09-28 00:44:44 +0000249 +) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
250 [Steve Henson]
251
Richard Levitte89eecca2001-09-26 15:06:45 +0000252 +) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
253 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
254 become part of libeay.num as well.
255 [Richard Levitte]
256
Bodo Möller3b0b5ab2001-09-21 11:18:40 +0000257 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
258 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
259 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
260
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +0000261 +) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
262 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
263 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
264 false once a handshake has been completed.
265 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
266 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
267 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
268 client has followed the request.)
269 [Bodo Moeller]
270
271 +) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
272 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
273 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
274 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
275 [Bodo Moeller]
276
Bodo Möller2260ad22001-09-21 00:04:15 +0000277 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
278 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
Bodo Möllerb49124f2001-09-21 07:01:25 +0000279 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
280 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
281 HelloRequest.
Bodo Möller2260ad22001-09-21 00:04:15 +0000282
283 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
284 before just sending a HelloRequest.
Bodo Möllerb49124f2001-09-21 07:01:25 +0000285 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
Bodo Möller8e2f6b72001-09-20 21:37:13 +0000286
Bodo Mölleree60d9f2001-09-20 18:35:52 +0000287 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
288 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
289 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
290 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
291 may leak via logfiles.)
292
293 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
294 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
295 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
296 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
297 the legal range.
298 [Bodo Moeller]
299
Dr. Stephen Henson96bd6f72001-09-12 00:19:20 +0000300 +) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
301 [Steve Henson]
302
Lutz Jänickec0f5dd02001-09-11 13:08:51 +0000303 +) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
304 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
305 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
306 [Lutz Jaenicke]
307
Bodo Möllerb26ca342001-11-12 23:22:29 +0000308 +) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
309 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
Lutz Jänicke6c36f7a2001-09-06 12:39:00 +0000310 [Lutz Jaenicke]
311
Bodo Möllerb26ca342001-11-12 23:22:29 +0000312 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
313 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
Bodo Möllerc5571db2001-11-12 15:31:39 +0000314 [Lutz Jaenicke]
315
Bodo Möllera9ed4da2001-09-06 10:42:56 +0000316 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
317 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
318 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
319 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000320 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
Bodo Möllera9ed4da2001-09-06 10:42:56 +0000321 [Bodo Moeller]
322
Bodo Möller44501072001-09-05 19:14:53 +0000323 +) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +0000324 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
325 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
326 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
Bodo Möllera9ed4da2001-09-06 10:42:56 +0000327 [Geoff Thorpe]
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +0000328
Bodo Möller44501072001-09-05 19:14:53 +0000329 +) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +0000330 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
331 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
332 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
333 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
334 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
335 [Geoff Thorpe]
336
Bodo Möller44501072001-09-05 19:14:53 +0000337 +) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +0000338 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
339 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
340 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
341 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to

371 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
372 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
373 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
374 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
375 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
376 [Ben Laurie]
377
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +0000378 +) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
379 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
380 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
381 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
382 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
383 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
384 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
385 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
386 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
387 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
388 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
389 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
390 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
391 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
392 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +0000393
394 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
395 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
396 has a return value to indicate success or failure.

398
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +0000399 +) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
400 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
401 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
402 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
403 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
404 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
405 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
406 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
407 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.

Bodo Möller44501072001-09-05 19:14:53 +0000410 +) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +0000411 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
412 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
413 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
414 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.

Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +0000491 +) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as

493 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function

509
510 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this

596 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
597 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
598 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
599 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
600 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
601 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
602 to traverse all of 'state'.
603
604 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
605 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
606 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
607
608 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
609 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
610
611 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
612 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
613 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
614 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
615 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
616 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
617 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
618 further strengthens the PRNG.

Bodo Möller31bc51c2001-06-01 09:41:25 +0000704 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +0000705 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
Bodo Möller31bc51c2001-06-01 09:41:25 +0000706 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
707 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
708 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
709 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
710 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
711 paper.)
712
713 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
714 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
715 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
716 detect the supposedly ignored error.

760
Dr. Stephen Henson926a56b2001-05-10 00:13:59 +0000761 +) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
762 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
763 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
764 [Steve Henson]
765
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdee69f2001-05-09 00:30:39 +0000766 +) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
767 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
768 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
769 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
770 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
771 internally such as S/MIME.
772
773 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
774 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
775 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
776
777 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
778 applications.
779 [Steve Henson]
780
Dr. Stephen Hensonb545dc62001-05-07 22:52:50 +0000781 +) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
782 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
783 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
784 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
785
786 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
787
788 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
789
790 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
791 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
792 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
793 handling.

808
Bodo Möller24cc2902001-05-03 09:27:43 +0000809 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
810 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
811 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
812 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
813 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
814 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
815 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
816 environment variables.
817
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +0000818 +) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
819 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
820 [Geoff]
821
822 +) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
823 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
824 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
825 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
826 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
827 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
828 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
829 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
830 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
831 ENGINE structure.

837 [Steve Henson]
838
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +0000839 +) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
840 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
841 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
842 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
843 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
844 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
845 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
846 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
847 [Geoff]
848
849 +) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
850 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
851 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
852 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
853 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
854 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
855 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
856 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
857 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
858 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
859 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
860 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
861 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
862 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
863 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
864 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
865 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
866 [Geoff]
867
868 +) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
869 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
870 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
871 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
872 internal engine_int.h header.
873 [Geoff]
874
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +0000875 +) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
876 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
877 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
878 modify their own ones).
879 [Geoff]
880
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +0000881 +) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +0000882 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
883 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
884 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
885 later on via ctrl() commands.
886 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
887 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
888 structural references.
889 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
890 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
891 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
892 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
893 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Möllere13ae962001-09-10 18:59:53 +0000894 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +0000895 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
896 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
897 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
898 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
899 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
900 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.

Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +0000918 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
919 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
920 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
921 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
922 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
923 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

Bodo Möller6f8f4432001-03-10 23:37:52 +00001034 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
1035 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.

1037 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.

1039 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
Bodo Möller6f8f4432001-03-10 23:37:52 +00001040 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
1041 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.

Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001044 +) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
Richard Levitte251cb4c2001-03-10 16:20:52 +00001045 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
1046 [Richard Levitte]
1047
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001048 +) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4f682d2001-03-10 01:56:48 +00001049 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
1050 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
1051 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
1052 is 40 of more characters long.

1075
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001076 +) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
Bodo Möller5277d7c2001-03-07 01:19:07 +00001077
1078 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7

1081 ASN1 error codes
1082 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
1083 ...
1084 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
1085 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
1086 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
1087 ...
1088 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
1089 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
1090
1091 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.

Richard Levitte757a8b42001-03-05 13:59:52 +00001108 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.

1110
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001111 +) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001112 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
1113 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
1114 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
1115 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
1116 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
1117
1118 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
1119 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
1120
1121 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
1122 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1123
1124 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
1125 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
1126
1127 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
1128 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
1129 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1130 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
1131
1132 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001133 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001134
1135 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001136 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001137
1138 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
1139 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
1140 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
1141 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
1142 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
1143 [Richard Levitte]
1144
Dr. Stephen Hensonf23478c2001-03-01 13:32:11 +00001145 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for

1148
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001149 +) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
Dr. Stephen Henson3d2e4692001-02-28 00:51:48 +00001150 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
1151 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
1152 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
1153 [Steve Henson]
1154
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001155 +) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
Dr. Stephen Hensonfafc7f92001-02-26 14:17:58 +00001156 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
1157 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
1158 trust settings.
1159 [Steve Henson]
1160
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001161 +) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00001162 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
1163 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
1164 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001165 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00001166 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
1167 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
1168 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
1169 ocsp utility.

1180
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001181 +) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
Dr. Stephen Hensond7c06e92001-02-23 13:04:24 +00001182 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
1183 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
1184 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
1185 [Steve Henson]
1186
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001187 +) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00001188 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
1189 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
1190 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
1191 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
1192 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
1193 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
1194 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
1195 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
1196 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
1197 [Steve Henson]
1198
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001199 +) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00001200 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
1201 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
1202 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
1203 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
1204 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
1205 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
1206 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
1207
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001208 +) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
Richard Levitted399fdf2001-02-21 14:12:03 +00001209 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
1210 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
1211 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.

1217
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001218 +) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00001219 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
1220 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
1221 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
1222 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00001223 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
1224 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
1225 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
1226 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
1227 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
1228 what is available.

1230
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001231 +) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
Dr. Stephen Hensonacba75c2001-02-19 13:38:32 +00001232 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
1233 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
1234 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
1235 auto incremented.
1236 [Steve Henson]
1237
Bodo Möller934397e2001-02-19 10:32:53 +00001238 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
1239 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
1240
1241 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
1242
1243 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
1244
1245 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
1246 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
1247 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
1248 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
1249 [Bodo Moeller]
1250
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001251 +) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6b7ffd2001-02-16 01:35:44 +00001252 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are

1258
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001259 +) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
Dr. Stephen Hensonf2e5ca82001-02-14 02:11:52 +00001260 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
1261 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
1262 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
1263 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.

1272
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001273 +) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
Dr. Stephen Henson67c18012001-02-13 00:37:44 +00001274 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url

1276 [Steve Henson]
1277
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001278 +) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00001279 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
1280 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
1281 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
1282 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
1283 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
1284 the request is nonce-less.

1460 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
1461 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
1462 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
1463 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
1464 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.

1470 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
1471 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
1472 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set

Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00001578 provide utility functions which an application needing
1579 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
1580 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
1581 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
1582
1583 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
1584 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
1585 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
1586 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
1587 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
1588 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
1589 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
1590 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
1591 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
1592
1593 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.

Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00001617 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
1618 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
1619 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
1620 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
1621 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the

1623 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
1624 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
1625 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
1626 to produce the required SET OF.

Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00001889 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1890
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001891 +) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00001892 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1893 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00001894 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1895 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00001896 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1897 differing sizes.
1898 [Richard Levitte]
1899
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001900 +) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00001901 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
1902 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
1903 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
1904 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
1905
1906 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
1907 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
1908 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
1909 cause any problems.
1910 [Bodo Moeller]
1911
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001912 +) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.

1914
Bodo Möller7f7b8d62000-11-08 10:05:34 +00001915 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
1916 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
1917 [Bodo Moeller]
1918
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001919 +) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
Richard Levittee06433d2000-11-07 11:25:26 +00001920 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
1921 [Richard Levitte]
1922
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001923 +) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00001924 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
1925 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
1926 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
1927 time)

1929
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001930 +) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
Richard Levittee7ef1a52000-11-06 22:03:00 +00001931 [Richard Levitte]
1932
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001933 +) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
Richard Levitte020fc822000-11-06 21:15:54 +00001934 [Richard Levitte]
1935
Richard Levitte6b77e6d2000-11-06 06:52:47 +00001936 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
1937 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
1938 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
1939 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
1940 [Richard Levitte]
1941
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001942 +) Add the following functions:
Richard Levitte11c0f122000-11-02 20:33:04 +00001943
1944 ENGINE_load_cswift()
1945 ENGINE_load_chil()
1946 ENGINE_load_atalla()
1947 ENGINE_load_nuron()
1948 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
1949
1950 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
1951 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
1952 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
1953 libraries unless it's really needed.
1954
1955 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
1956 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
1957 declarations (they differed!).
1958 [Richard Levitte]
1959
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001960 +) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.

1965
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001966 +) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.

1968
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001969 +) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
Richard Levitte14c6d272000-11-01 02:57:35 +00001970 identity, and test if they are actually available.
1971 [Richard Levitte]
1972
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001973 +) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
Richard Levitte501ebf12000-10-31 23:26:32 +00001974 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.

1976
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00001977 +) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
Richard Levitte3aba98e2000-10-28 22:44:03 +00001978 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
1979 [Richard Levitte]
1980

2008
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00002009 +) NCONF changes.
Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00002010 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
2011 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
2012 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
2013 binary backward compatibility.
2014 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
2015 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
2016 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an

2022
Richard Levittea22fb392000-10-13 15:25:06 +00002023 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
2024
2025 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
2026 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
2027 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
2028 that.
2029
2030 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
2031
2032 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
2033
2034 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
2035 static ones.

2037
Bodo Möllera9d2bc42001-04-11 10:35:38 +00002038 +) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason

2040 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
2041 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
2042 this case.

2057
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00002058 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
2059
2060 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
2061 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
2062 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
2063 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.

2065
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00002066 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.

Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00002074 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00002075
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00002076 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
2077 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
2078 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
2079 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
2080 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00002081 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00002082 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
2083 by the Finished messages.
2084 [Bodo Moeller]
2085
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00002086 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
2087 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
2088
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00002089 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
2090 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
2091 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
2092 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
2093 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
2094 appropriately.
2095 [Steve Henson]
2096
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00002097 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
2098 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
2099 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
2100 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
2101 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
2102 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
2103 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
2104 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
2105 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
2106 together.
2107 [Steve Henson]
2108
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00002109 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
2110 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
2111 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
2112 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
2113
2114 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
2115 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
2116 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
2117 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
2118 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
2119 the answer.
2120
2121 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
2122 been tested well enough.
2123 [Richard Levitte]
2124
Bodo Möllerfe035192000-09-19 23:25:00 +00002125 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,

2135
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00002136 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR

2145 [Ulf Möller]
2146
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00002147 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
2148 packages. The default package contains applications, application
2149 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
2150 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
2151 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original

Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00002165 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
2166 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
2167 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
2168 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
2169 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
2170 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
2171 just makes things more complicated.)
2172 [Bodo Moeller]
2173
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00002174 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read

Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002197 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
2198 rather than always using the current time.
2199 [Steve Henson]
2200
2201 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
2202 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
2203 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
2204 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
2205 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
2206 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002207
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002208 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
2209 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002210
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002211 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002212
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002213 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
2214 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
2215 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
2216 the same hash value.
2217
2218 As a result various functions (which were all internal
2219 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
2220 structure. This will break anything that messed round
2221 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002222
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002223 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
2224 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002225
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002226 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
2227 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
2228 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
2229 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
2230 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
2231 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
2232 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00002233
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00002234 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
2235
2236 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
2237 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
2238 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
2239 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
2240 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
2241 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
2242 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
2243 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
2244
2245 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
2246 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
2247
2248 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
2249 to customise the verify behaviour.

Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00002252 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
2253 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
2254 [Steve Henson]
2255
2256 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
2257 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
2258 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
2259 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
2260 request is improperly encoded.
2261 [Steve Henson]
2262
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00002263 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
2264 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
2265 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00002266
2267 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.

2269
Bodo Möllerbbb8de02000-09-04 15:34:43 +00002270 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
2271 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
2272 words set to zero.)
2273 [Bodo Moeller]
2274
2275 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
2276 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
2277 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
2278 [Bodo Moeller]
2279
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +00002280 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
2281 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
2282 BIO/fp routines also added.
2283 [Steve Henson]
2284
Bodo Möllera545c6f2000-09-01 09:54:25 +00002285 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.

2287
Ben Laurie7049ef52000-08-30 18:14:28 +00002288 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
2289 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
2290 demos/state_machine.
2291 [Ben Laurie]
2292
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00002293 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
2294 generation and verification.
2295 [Steve Henson]
2296
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00002297 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
2298 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
2299 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
2300 encode and decode it manually.
2301 [Steve Henson]
2302
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00002303 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
Dr. Stephen Henson469938c2000-08-22 12:54:21 +00002304 compile under VC++.
2305 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
2306
2307 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
2308 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
2309 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
2310 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
2311
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00002312 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
2313 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
2314 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
2315 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
2316 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
2317 [Steve Henson]
2318
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00002319 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
2320 [Richard Levitte]
2321
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00002322 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
2323 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
2324 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
2325
2326 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
2327 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
2328 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
2329 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
2330 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
2331 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
2332 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
2333 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
2334
2335 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
2336 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
2337
2338 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
2339
2340 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
2341 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
2342 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
2343
2344 [Richard Levitte]
2345
Richard Levitte368f8552000-08-17 10:25:46 +00002346 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
2347 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
2348 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
2349 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
2350 [Richard Levitte]
2351
Richard Levitte30094582000-08-14 14:05:53 +00002352 *) MD4 implemented.

Richard Levitte88364bc2000-08-11 19:43:20 +00002355 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
2356 [Richard Levitte]
2357
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00002358 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
2359 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
2360 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
2361 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
2362 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
2363 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
2364 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
2365 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
2366 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
2367 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
2368 short or long names are found.
2369 [Steve Henson]
2370
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00002371 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00002372 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00002373
Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00002374 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
2375 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
2376 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
2377 version rollback attacks was not effective.
2378
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00002379 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
2380 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
2381 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
2382 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
2383 [Bodo Moeller]
2384
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00002385 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
2386 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
2387 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
2388 [Richard Levitte]
2389
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00002390 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
2391 these print out strings and name structures based on various
2392 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
2393 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
2394 to allow the various flags to be set.
2395 [Steve Henson]
2396
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00002397 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
2398 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
2399 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
2400 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
2401 dates to be checked.
2402 [Steve Henson]
2403
2404 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
2405 negative public key encodings) on by default,
2406 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
2407 [Steve Henson]
2408
2409 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
2410 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
2411 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
2412 [Steve Henson]
2413
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +00002414 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
2415 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
2416 [Bodo Moeller]
2417
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +00002418 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
2419 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
2420 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
2421 are always statically linked for now, but there are
2422 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
Richard Levitte6bc847e2001-08-10 15:26:21 +00002423 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.

Ulf Möllerc0722722000-07-19 21:35:35 +00002426 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
2427 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
2428 Random Numbers.
2429 [Ulf Möller]
2430
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd13f0e2000-07-12 23:55:30 +00002431 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
2432 DSA key.
2433 [Steve Henson]
2434
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00002435 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
2436 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
2437 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
2438 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
2439 form signing output easier to verify.
2440 [Steve Henson]
2441
2442 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
2443 [Steve Henson]
2444
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00002445 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
2446 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
2447 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
2448 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
2449 are needed because all other string types have virtually
2450 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
2451 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
2452 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
2453 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
2454 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
2455 [Steve Henson]
2456
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00002457 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
2458
2459 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
2460 the syntax given in objects.README.
2461 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
2462 obj_mac.h.
2463 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
2464 obj_mac.h.
2465
2466 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
2467 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
2468 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
2469 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
2470 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
2471 consistent name changes.
2472 [Richard Levitte]
2473
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00002474 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
2475 [Bodo Moeller]
2476
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00002477 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00002478 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
2479 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
2480 environment variable, or the default random state file.

2482
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00002483 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
2484 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
2485 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
2486 of safestack.h .
2487 [Steve Henson]
2488
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00002489 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
2490 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
2491 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
2492 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
2493 [Steve Henson]
2494
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00002495 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
2496 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
2497 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
2498 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
2499 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
2500 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
2501 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
2502 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
2503 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00002504 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
2505 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.

2507
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00002508 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
2509 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
2510 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
2511 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
2512 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
2513 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
2514 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
2515 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
2516 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
2517 algorithm to openssl-dev.
2518 [Steve Henson]
2519
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00002520 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
2521 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
2522 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
2523 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
2524
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00002525 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
2526 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
2527 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
2528 omit any duplicate addresses.
2529 [Steve Henson]
2530
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00002531 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
2532 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
2533 [Bodo Moeller]
2534
2535 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
2536 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
2537 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
2538 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
2539 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
2540 [Bodo Moeller]
2541
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00002542 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other

2549
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00002550 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%

Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00002557 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
2558 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
2559 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
2560 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
2561 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
2562 approach.
2563 [Geoff Thorpe]
2564
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00002565 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
2566 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
2567 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
2568 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
2569 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
2570 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
2571 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
2572 [Geoff Thorpe]
2573
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00002574 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
2575 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
2576 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
2577 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
2578 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
2579 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
2580 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
2581 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
2582 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
2583 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
2584 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
2585 [Bodo Moeller]
2586
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00002587 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
2588 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
2589 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
2590 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
2591 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
2592
2593 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
2594 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
2595 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
2596 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
2597 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
2598
2599 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
2600 ciphers.
2601
2602 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00002603 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
2604 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
2605 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
2606
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00002607 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
2608
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00002609 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
2610 of macros.
2611
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00002612 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
2613 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
2614 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
2615 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00002616
2617 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
2618 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
2619 any installed hardware versions can.

2621
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00002622 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
2623 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
2624 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
2625 number.
2626 [Bodo Moeller]
2627
2628 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
2629 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
2630 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
2631 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
2632 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
2633
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4b41f42000-05-24 13:09:59 +00002634 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
2635 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
2636 [Steve Henson]
2637
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00002638 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
2639 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
2640 [Richard Levitte]
2641
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00002642 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
2643 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
2644 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
2645 features.
2646 [Steve Henson]
2647
Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00002648 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.

Dr. Stephen Henson0cb957a2000-05-04 23:03:49 +00002651 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
2652 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
2653 but no ssl client purpose.
2654 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
2655
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00002656 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
2657 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
2658 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
2659 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
2660 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
2661 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
2662 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
2663 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
2664 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
2665 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
2666 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
2667 [Steve Henson]
2668
Bodo Möller316e6a62000-05-02 20:29:03 +00002669 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
2670 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
2671 be obtained from the error queue.
2672 [Bodo Moeller]
2673
Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00002674 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
2675 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
2676 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
2677 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
2678 [Bodo Moeller]
2679
Ulf Möller39736282000-04-27 15:06:26 +00002680 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
2681 [Ulf Möller]
2682
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00002683 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
2684 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
2685 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
2686 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
2687 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
2688 [Geoff Thorpe]
2689
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00002690 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
2691 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
2692 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
2693 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
2694 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
2695 [Geoff Thorpe]
2696
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00002697 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
2698 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
2699 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
2700 may not be NULL.

2702
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00002703 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
2704 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
2705 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
2706 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
2707 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
2708 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
2709 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
2710 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
2711 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
2712 or "the configuration storage API"...
2713
2714 The new configuration file reading functions are:
2715
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00002716 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
2717 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00002718
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00002719 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00002720
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00002721 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00002722
2723 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
2724 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
2725 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
2726 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
2727 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
2728 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
2729 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
2730
2731 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
2732 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
2733 [Richard Levitte]
2734
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00002735 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
2736 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
2737 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
2738 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
2739 [Bodo Moeller]
2740
Geoff Thorpe6ef4d9d2000-04-04 22:49:27 +00002741 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
2742 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
2743 them in a portable way.

2747
2748 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
Bodo Möller865874f2000-02-28 18:03:16 +00002749
Bodo Möllercf194c12000-03-30 08:12:35 +00002750 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
2751 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
2752
Bodo Möller3bc90f22000-03-27 18:10:08 +00002753 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
2754 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
2755 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili

2757
Dr. Stephen Hensonb475baf2000-03-27 00:53:27 +00002758 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
2759 was larger than the MD block size.
2760 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
2761
Dr. Stephen Hensone77066e2000-03-22 13:50:23 +00002762 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
2763 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
2764 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
2765 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
2766 components.

2768
Ulf Möller7af48162000-03-19 02:06:37 +00002769 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.

2771 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
2772
Dr. Stephen Henson80870562000-03-14 03:29:57 +00002773 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly

2776
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00002777 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
2778 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00002779 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00002780 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00002781 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
2782 Additional arguments are always ignored.
2783
2784 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
2785 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00002786
2787 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such

2792 [Bodo Moeller]
2793
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00002794 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
2795 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
2796 its own key.
2797 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
2798 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
2799 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
2800 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
2801 [Bodo Moeller]
2802
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00002803 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
2804 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
2805 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
2806 does not suppress any output.
2807 [Richard Levitte]
2808
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00002809 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00002810 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
2811 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
2812 with all the associated security issues.
2813
2814 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
2815 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
2816 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
2817 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
2818 use the value in the default purpose.
2819 [Steve Henson]
2820
Dr. Stephen Henson48fe0ee2000-03-07 01:03:33 +00002821 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
2822 and fix a memory leak.
2823 [Steve Henson]
2824
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00002825 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
2826 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
2827 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
2828 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
2829 [Bodo Moeller]
2830
Bodo Möller0a150c52000-03-04 01:36:53 +00002831 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
2832 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
2833 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
2834 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
2835 [Bodo Moeller]
2836
Bodo Möller41918452000-03-03 22:18:19 +00002837 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
2838 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
2839 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
2840 [Bodo Moeller]
2841
2842 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
2843 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
2844 [Bodo Moeller]
2845
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00002846 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
2847 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
2848 which was free.
2849 [Steve Henson]
2850
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00002851 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes

2853 [Bodo Moeller]
2854
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00002855 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
2856 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
2857 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
2858 [Bodo Moeller]
2859
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00002860 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random

2862 [Bodo Moeller]
2863
Bodo Möller55f7d652000-03-01 07:57:25 +00002864 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.

Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00002892 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
2893 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
2894 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
2895 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
2896 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.

Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00002899 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
2900 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing

2904
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00002905 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
2906 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
2907 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
2908 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
2909 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
2910 counter, some don't.)
2911 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
2912 counters or duplicate objects.

2931 [Steve Henson]
2932
2933 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
2934 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
2935 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
2936 cipher list.

2945 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
2946 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
2947 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
2948 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
2949 should work without changes.

2953 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
2954 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
2955 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
2956 must be defined. E.g.,

2969 [Steve Henson]
2970
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00002971 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
2972 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
2973 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
2974 request header lines. Some software needs this.

2979 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
2980 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
2981 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
2982 is prompted for as usual.

3034
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00003035 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
3036 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
3037 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
3038 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
3039 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
3040 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
3041 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.

Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00003059 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
3060 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
3061 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
3062 has already seen).
3063 [Bodo Moeller]
3064
3065 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
3066 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
3067
3068 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
3069 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
3070 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
3071 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
3072 generation becomes much faster.
3073
3074 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00003075 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
3076 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
3077 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
3078 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
3079 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
3080 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
3081 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
3082 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
3083 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).

3088 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
3089 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00003090 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the

3149 wrong.
3150
3151 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by

3153 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).

Bodo Möllerc51ae172000-01-11 01:07:26 +00003211 [Bodo Moeller]
3212
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00003213 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
3214 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00003215 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
3216 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
3217 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
3218 to use this.
3219
3220 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
3221 code.
3222 [Steve Henson]
3223
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00003224 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
3225 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
3226 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
3227 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
3228 [Steve Henson]
3229
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003230 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
3231 [Ulf Möller]
3232
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00003233 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
3234 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
3235 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
3236 international characters are used.
3237
3238 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
3239 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
3240 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
3241 in ASN1 order.
3242 [Steve Henson]
3243
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00003244 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
3245 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
3246 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
3247 request.
3248
3249 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
3250 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
3251 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
3252 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003253 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00003254 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
3255
3256 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
3257 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
3258 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003259 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00003260
3261 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
3262 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
3263 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
3264 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
3265 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
3266 types at all.
3267 [Steve Henson]
3268
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00003269 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
3270 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
3271 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
3272 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
3273 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
3274
3275 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
3276 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
3277 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
3278 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
Bodo Möllerf2d9a322000-01-06 00:24:24 +00003279 [Bodo Moeller]
3280
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00003281 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
3282 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003283 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00003284 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
3285 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
3286 SHA1.
3287 [Andy Polyakov]
3288
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00003289 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
3290 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
3291 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
3292 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
3293 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
3294 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
3295 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
3296 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
3297
3298 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
3299 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00003300 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00003301 [Steve Henson]
3302
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00003303 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
3304 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
3305 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
3306 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
3307 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
3308 support to pkcs8 application.
3309 [Steve Henson]
3310
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00003311 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
3312 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
3313 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
3314 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
3315 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
3316 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
3317 [Bodo Moeller]
3318
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00003319 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
3320 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
3321 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
3322 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
3323 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
3324 consistency.
3325 [Bodo Moeller]
3326
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00003327 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
3328 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
3329 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
3330 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
3331 example.
3332 [Steve Henson]
3333
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00003334 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
3335 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
3336 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
3337 and any application specific purposes.
3338
3339 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
3340 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
3341 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
3342 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00003343 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00003344 if the certificate is self signed.
3345 [Steve Henson]
3346
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00003347 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
3348 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
3349 [Steve Henson]
3350
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00003351 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
3352 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00003353 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00003354 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
3355 [Steve Henson]
3356
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00003357 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
3358 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
3359 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
3360 Update documentation.
3361 [Steve Henson]
3362
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00003363 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
3364 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003365 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00003366 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
3367 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
3368 [Steve Henson]
3369
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00003370 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
3371 for details.
3372 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
3373
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00003374 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
3375 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
3376 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00003377 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
3378 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
3379 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00003380 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
3381 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
3382 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
3383 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00003384
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00003385 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
3386
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00003387 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
3388 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
3389 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
3390 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
3391 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00003392
3393 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
3394 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00003395 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
3396 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
3397 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
3398 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
3399 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
3400 request additional information:
3401 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
3402 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00003403
3404 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
3405 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
3406 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
3407 options.
3408
3409 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
3410 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
3411
3412 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
3413 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
3414 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
3415
3416 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00003417 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00003418
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00003419 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
3420 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
3421 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
3422 algorithm.
3423 [Steve Henson]
3424
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00003425 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
3426 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
3427 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
3428
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00003429 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
3430 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
3431 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
3432 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
3433 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
3434 included in OpenSSL.
3435 [Steve Henson]
3436
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00003437 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
3438 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
3439 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
3440 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
3441 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
3442 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
3443 [Bodo Moeller]
3444
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00003445 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
3446 PKCS12 structure.
3447 [Steve Henson]
3448
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00003449 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
3450 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
3451 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
3452 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
3453 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
3454 structure.
3455 [Steve Henson]
3456
3457 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
3458 need initialising.
3459 [Steve Henson]
3460
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00003461 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
3462 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
3463 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
3464 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
3465 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
3466 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
3467 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
3468 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
3469 be maintained manually.
3470
3471 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
3472 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
3473 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
3474 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
3475 work because people forget to call this function]
3476 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
3477 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
3478 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
3479 [Steve Henson]
3480
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00003481 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
3482 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
3483 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
3484 should be discouraged from doing it.
3485 [Ben Laurie]
3486
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00003487 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
3488 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
3489 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
3490 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
3491 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
3492 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
3493 [Steve Henson]
3494
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00003495 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
3496 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
3497 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00003498
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00003499 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00003500 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
3501 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00003502
3503 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
3504 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
3505 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
3506 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
3507 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
3508 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00003509
3510 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
3511 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
3512 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00003513
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00003514 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
3515 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
3516 and vice versa.
3517
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00003518 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
3519 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
3520 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
3521 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00003522 [Steve Henson]
3523
3524 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00003525 [Steve Henson]
3526
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00003527 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
3528 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
3529 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
3530 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
3531 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003532 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00003533 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
3534 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
3535 keys so we should be OK.
3536
3537 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
3538 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
3539 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
3540 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
3541 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
3542 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003543 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00003544
3545 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
3546 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
3547 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
3548
3549 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00003550 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
3551 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
3552 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
3553 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
3554 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
3555 supplied key).

3558 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
3559 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
3560 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
3561 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
3562 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
3563 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
3564 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
3565 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
3566 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
3567 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
3568 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
3569 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
3570 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
3571 [Steve Henson]
3572
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00003573 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
3574 [Steve Henson]
3575
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00003576 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
3577 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
3578 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
3579 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
3580 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
3581 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
3582 single self signed certificate. This means that:
3583 openssl verify ss.pem
3584 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
3585 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
3586 is OK.
3587 [Steve Henson]
3588
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00003589 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
3590 (and add it to external session representation).
3591 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
3592 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
3593 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
3594 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
3595 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
3596 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
3597 security holes.

Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00003600 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the

3609
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00003610 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function

3623 [Steve Henson]
3624

3628
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00003629 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak

Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00003631 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
3632 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
3633 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
3634 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
3635 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.

3640 [Steve Henson]
3641
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00003642 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
3643 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
3644 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
3645 manpages and fix a few bugs.

3649 [Steve Henson]
3650
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00003651 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
3652 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
3653 [Steve Henson]
3654
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00003655 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
3656 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
3657 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
3658 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
3659 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003660 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00003661 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
3662 using the new 'x509' options.
3663
3664 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
3665 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
3666 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
3667 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
3668 for all purposes.
3669 [Steve Henson]
3670
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00003671 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
3672 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
3673 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
3674 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
3675 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.

3677
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00003678 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
3679 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
3680 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
3681 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
3682 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003683 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00003684 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
3685 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
3686 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
3687 the key length and effective key length are equal.
3688 [Steve Henson]
3689
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00003690 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
3691 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
3692 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
3693 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
3694 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
3695 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
3696 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
3697 [Steve Henson]
3698
3699 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
3700 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
3701 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
3702 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
3703 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
3704 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
3705 openssl.cnf for more info.
3706 [Steve Henson]
3707
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00003708 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00003709 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00003710 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
3711 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
3712 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
3713 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
3714 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
3715 md should be large enough anyway.
3716 [Bodo Moeller]
3717
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00003718 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
3719 for handling the random seed file.
3720
3721 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
3722 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003723 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),

3725 s_server,
3726 x509 (when signing).
3727 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
3728 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00003729 for RSA signatures we could do without one.

Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003732 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00003733 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00003734 that support '-rand'.

3738 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
3739 [Bodo Moeller]
3740
3741 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations

3743 [Bill Perry]
3744
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00003745 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
3746 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
3747 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
3748 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
3749 is suitable.
3750 [Steve Henson]
3751
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00003752 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
3753 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
3754 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
3755 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
3756 [Steve Henson]
3757
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00003758 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
3759 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
3760 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
3761 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
3762 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
3763 print out all the purposes.
3764 [Steve Henson]
3765
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00003766 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated

3768 [Steve Henson]
3769
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00003770 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
3771 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
3772 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
3773 single function call.

3775
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00003776 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC

3778 [Andy Polyakov]
3779
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00003780 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced

3782 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
3783 [Steve Henson]
3784
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00003785 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer

3788
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00003789 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
3790 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
3791 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
3792 "server.pem".
3793 [Steve Henson]
3794
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00003795 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
3796 a public key to be input or output. For example:
3797 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
3798 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
3799 [Steve Henson]
3800
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00003801 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained

3805
3806 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
3807 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
3808 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.

3810
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00003811 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
3812 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
3813 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
3814 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
3815 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
3816 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
3817 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
3818 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
3819 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
3820 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
3821 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
3822 trivial: move one line.
3823 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
3824
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00003825 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
3826 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
3827 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
3828 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
3829 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
3830 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
3831 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
3832 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
3833 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
3834 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
3835 with an event loop for example.
3836 [Steve Henson]
3837
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00003838 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
3839 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
3840 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
3841 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
3842 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
3843 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
3844 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
3845 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
3846 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
3847 [Steve Henson]
3848
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00003849 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
3850 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
3851 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003852 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00003853 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
3854 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.

3856
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00003857 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl

3861
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00003862 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
3863 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This

Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00003873 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
3874 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
3875 [Steve Henson]
3876
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00003877 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
3878 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
3879 [Steve Henson]
3880
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00003881 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
3882 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
3883 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
3884 [Bodo Moeller]
3885
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00003886 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
3887 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
3888 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
3889 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
3890 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
3891 [Steve Henson]
3892
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00003893 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
3894 [Andy Polyakov]
3895
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00003896 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
3897 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
3898 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
3899 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
3900 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
3901 in ca.
3902 [Steve Henson]
3903
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00003904 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
3905 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
3906 1.OU="Unit name 1"
3907 2.OU="Unit name 2"
3908 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
3909 [Steve Henson]
3910
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00003911 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
3912 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
3913 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
3914 are otherwise ignored at present.
3915 [Steve Henson]
3916
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00003917 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00003918 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00003919 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
3920 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
3921 copied until the next read.
3922 [Steve Henson]
3923
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00003924 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
3925 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
3926 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
3927 [Steve Henson]
3928
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00003929 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
3930 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
3931 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
3932 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
3933 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
3934 associated functions.
3935 [Steve Henson]
3936
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00003937 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
3938 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
3939 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
3940 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
3941 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
3942 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
3943 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
3944 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
3945 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00003946 memory BIOs.
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00003947 [Steve Henson]
3948
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00003949 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
3950 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
3951 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
3952 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
3953 [Bodo Moeller]
3954
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00003955 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
3956 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
3957 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
3958 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
3959 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
3960 functionality.
3961 [Steve Henson]
3962
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00003963 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
3964 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
3965 under Win32.
3966 [Steve Henson]
3967
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00003968 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00003969 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
3970 extensions to be obtained and added.
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00003971 [Steve Henson]
3972
Bodo Möller1b1a6e71999-08-09 13:01:48 +00003973 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
3974 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
3975 [Bodo Moeller]
3976
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00003977 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
Ralf S. Engelschalldfbaf951999-08-08 19:12:26 +00003978
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00003979 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.

Ralf S. Engelschall96395151999-08-08 10:15:43 +00003982 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
3983 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
3984
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00003985 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
3986 program.
3987 [Steve Henson]
3988
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00003989 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
3990 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
3991 DH parameters contain its length).
3992
3993 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
3994 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
3995 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
3996 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
3997 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
3998 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
3999 utter importance to use
4000 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4001 or
4002 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4003 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
4004 attacks may become possible!
4005 [Bodo Moeller]
4006
4007 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
4008 [Bodo Moeller]
4009
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00004010 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
4011 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
4012 [Steve Henson]
4013
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00004014 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
4015 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
4016 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
4017 or long name.
4018 [Steve Henson]
4019
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00004020 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
4021 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
4022 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
4023 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00004024 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
4025 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
4026 private key operations.
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00004027 [Steve Henson]
4028
Andy Polyakova0618e31999-07-25 15:13:49 +00004029 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
4030 [Andy Polyakov]
4031
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00004032 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
4033 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
4034 to
4035 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
4036 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
4037 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
4038 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
4039 the password callback is called.
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00004040 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00004041
4042 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
4043
4044 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
4045 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
4046 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
4047 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
4048 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
4049 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
4050 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00004051
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00004052 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
4053 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
4054 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00004055 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
Bodo Möller57119941999-07-29 12:57:23 +00004056 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
4057 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).

4059
Andy Polyakov73634551999-07-20 15:50:20 +00004060 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
4061 [Andy Polyakov]
4062
Ulf Möller64344501999-07-16 00:50:45 +00004063 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
4064 delete an unused file.
4065 [Ulf Möller]
4066
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00004067 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
4068 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
4069 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
4070 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
4071 [Steve Henson]
4072
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00004073 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
4074 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
4075 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
4076 of an error.
4077 [Bodo Moeller]
4078
Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00004079 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
4080 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
4081 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4082
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00004083 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
4084 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
4085 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
4086 comparison" warnings.
4087 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00004088 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00004089
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5139391999-07-11 12:40:46 +00004090 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
4091 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
4092 derived keys are printed to stderr.
4093 [Steve Henson]
4094
Dr. Stephen Henson0ab8beb1999-07-11 12:30:55 +00004095 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
4096 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
4097
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00004098 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
4099 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
4100
4101 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
4102 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
4103 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
4104
4105 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
4106 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
4107 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
4108 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
4109 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
4110 this bug.
4111 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
4112
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00004113 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
4114 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00004115 Applications can use
4116 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
4117 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
4118 "off" is now the default.
4119 The library internally uses
4120 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
4121 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
4122 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
4123
4124 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
4125 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00004126
4127 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
4128 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
4129 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00004130
4131 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
4132
4133 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
4134 extensions.

4136
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00004137 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
4138 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
4139 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00004140 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00004141
4142 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
4143 a single record has been written.
4144 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
4145 retries use the same buffer location.

4155
Dr. Stephen Hensonce8b2571999-06-29 22:22:42 +00004156 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and

4165
Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00004166 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
4167 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
4168 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
4169 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
4170 point to the end.

4172 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
4173
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00004174 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
4175 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
4176 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
4177 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
4178 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
4179 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
4180 [Steve Henson]
4181
Dr. Stephen Hensondbd665c1999-06-22 01:38:31 +00004182 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the

4185 [Steve Henson]
4186
Bodo Möllerf76a8081999-06-21 11:32:25 +00004187 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the

Dr. Stephen Henson8623f691999-06-20 17:36:11 +00004193 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
4194 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
4195 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
4196 [Steve Henson]
4197
Bodo Möllera1113061999-06-18 16:14:18 +00004198 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
4199 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
4200 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
Bodo Möller11af1a21999-06-18 18:22:38 +00004201 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by

4203 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
4204 need locks.

4206
Bodo Möller95d29591999-06-12 01:03:40 +00004207 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
4208 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
4209 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
4210 [Bodo Moeller]
4211
4212 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
4213 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
4214 appropriate.
4215 [Bodo Moeller]
4216
Dr. Stephen Henson9bce3071999-06-11 22:30:45 +00004217 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
4218 for the encoded length.

4220
Dr. Stephen Henson565d1061999-06-11 01:58:42 +00004221 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
4222 [Steve Henson]
4223
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7d135b1999-06-10 17:32:52 +00004224 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
4225 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
4226 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
4227 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
4228 [Steve Henson]
4229
Ralf S. Engelschall9d9b5591999-06-10 08:13:52 +00004230 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
4231 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
4232 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4233
Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00004234 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
4235 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
4236 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
4237 unusual formatting.
4238 [Steve Henson]
4239
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00004240 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
4241 to use the new extension code.
4242 [Steve Henson]
4243
4244 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
4245 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
4246 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
4247 constant.
4248 [Steve Henson]
4249
Bodo Möller8151f521999-06-09 13:29:51 +00004250 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative

Ben Laurie233bf731999-06-09 10:19:53 +00004264 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
4265 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
4266 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
4267 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
4268 [Ben Laurie]
4269
Ulf Möller908eb7b1999-06-08 16:35:11 +00004270 *) DES library cleanups.
4271 [Ulf Möller]
4272
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00004273 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
4274 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
4275 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
4276 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
4277 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
4278 of v2.0.
4279 [Steve Henson]
4280
Bodo Möllerd4443ed1999-06-07 13:34:25 +00004281 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00004285 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
4286 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
4287 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
4288 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
4289 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
4290 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
4291 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
4292 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
4293 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
4294 [Steve Henson]
4295
Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00004296 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00004297 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
4298 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
4299 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
4300 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
4301 value doesn't matter.

Ulf Möllere14d4441999-05-20 01:43:07 +00004365 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
4366 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
4367 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4368
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00004369 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
4370 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
4371 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
4372 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
4373 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
4374 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
4375 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
4376 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
4377 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
4378 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
4379 [Steve Henson]
4380
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00004381 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
4382 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
4383 [Steve Henson]
4384
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00004385 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00004386 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00004387 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
4388 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
4389 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
4390
4391 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
4392 [Bodo Moeller]
4393
Dr. Stephen Henson84fa7041999-05-16 00:25:36 +00004394 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
4395 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
4396 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
4397 [Steve Henson]
4398
Ben Laurie62bad771999-05-15 15:59:28 +00004399 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
4400 [Ben Laurie]
4401
Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00004402 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
4403 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
4404 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
4405 key elements as negative integers.
4406 [Steve Henson]

4412 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
4413
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5eac851999-05-12 01:56:27 +00004414 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be

4416 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
4417 [Steve Henson]
4418
Bodo Möllerb31b04d1999-05-11 07:43:16 +00004419 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
4420 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
4421 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
4422 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as

4424 [Bodo Moeller]

4433
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00004434 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
4435 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
4436 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
4437
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00004438 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
4439 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
4440 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
4441 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
4442 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
4443 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
4444 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
4445 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
4446 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
4447
4448 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
4449 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
4450 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
4451 does not influence s as it used to.
4452
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00004453 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00004454 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
4455 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
4456 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
4457 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
4458 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

4462 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
4463 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing

Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00004517 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
4518 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
4519 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
4520 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
4521 didn't match the private key).
4522
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00004523 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
Bodo Möllerdd1462f1999-05-01 00:07:42 +00004524 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
4525 connection using the SSL_CTX).

4527
Ulf Möllerc6652741999-04-29 21:56:13 +00004528 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
4529 [Ulf Möller]
4530
Bodo Möllere5f30451999-04-29 21:52:08 +00004531 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
4532 David Harris.
4533 [Bodo Moeller]
4534
Bodo Möller87bc2c01999-04-29 16:10:41 +00004535 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
4536 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
4537 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
4538 [Bodo Moeller]
4539
Bodo Möller6e6acfd1999-04-28 22:33:54 +00004540 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
4541 [Bodo Moeller]
4542
Bodo Möllerddeee821999-04-28 22:06:19 +00004543 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
4544 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
4545 such as /usr/local/bin.
4546 [Bodo Moeller]
4547
Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00004548 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
Bodo Möllerddeee821999-04-28 22:06:19 +00004549 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00004550
Ulf Möllerf5d7a031999-04-27 01:14:46 +00004551 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
4552 [Ulf Möller]
4553
Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00004554 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
4555 extension adding in x509 utility.
4556 [Steve Henson]
4557
Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00004558 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
4559 [Ulf Möller]
4560
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00004561 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
4562 prototypes.
4563 [Steve Henson]
4564
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00004565 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
Ulf Möller9c4711c1999-04-24 23:39:52 +00004566 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00004567
Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00004568 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
4569 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
4570 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
4571 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
4572 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
4573 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
4574 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
4575 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00004576 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
4577 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

4579
Bodo Möller018b4ee1999-04-23 22:38:22 +00004580 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
Bodo Möller92df9601999-04-23 22:20:21 +00004581 [Bodo Moeller]
4582
Bodo Möller85f48f71999-04-22 14:28:38 +00004583 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
4584 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
4585 [Bodo Moeller]
4586
Bodo Möller90b8bbb1999-04-22 13:38:03 +00004587 *) Fix some race conditions.
4588 [Bodo Moeller]
4589
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00004590 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
4591 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
4592 [Steve Henson]
4593
Ulf Möller8e10f2b1999-04-21 17:31:05 +00004594 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
4595 [Ulf Möller]
4596
Ben Laurie49971381999-04-21 13:24:58 +00004597 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
4598 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
4599 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
4600 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
4601
Ulf Möller95dc05b1999-04-20 22:50:42 +00004602 *) Fix lots of warnings.
4603 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4604
4605 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
4606 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.

4623
Dr. Stephen Henson3edd7ed1999-04-19 17:55:11 +00004624 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00004625 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
Dr. Stephen Henson41b731f1999-04-18 23:21:03 +00004626 [Steve Henson]
4627
Ben Lauriee7788021999-04-17 21:25:43 +00004628 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
4629 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
4630 [Ben Laurie]
4631
Dr. Stephen Hensonc83e5231999-04-17 23:55:39 +00004632 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
4633 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.

4635
Dr. Stephen Henson1d48dd01999-04-16 23:57:04 +00004636 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
4637 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
4638 [Steve Henson]
4639
Dr. Stephen Henson953937b1999-04-15 23:07:00 +00004640 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
4641 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
4642 [Steve Henson]
4643
Dr. Stephen Henson28a98801999-04-14 23:44:41 +00004644 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
4645 support typesafe stack.
4646 [Steve Henson]
4647
Ben Laurie8f7de4f1999-04-14 11:13:47 +00004648 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().

4650
Dr. Stephen Henson0490a861999-04-13 23:56:39 +00004651 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
4652 old X509V3 handling code.
4653 [Steve Henson]
4654
Ulf Möller5fbe91d1999-04-13 00:58:49 +00004655 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
4656 [Ulf Möller]
4657
Bodo Möller5fd4e2b1999-04-12 19:58:17 +00004658 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
4659 [Bodo Moeller]
4660
Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00004661 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
4662 [Ben Laurie]
4663

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00004667 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
4668 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
4669 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
4670 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
4671 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
4672 [Ben Laurie]
4673
Ralf S. Engelschallf9a25931999-04-12 11:45:14 +00004674 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
4675 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
4676 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
4677 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
4678 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
4679
Ralf S. Engelschall2f0cd191999-04-12 10:36:16 +00004680 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
4681 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
4682 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
4683 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4684
Ralf S. Engelschall268c2101999-04-12 09:59:05 +00004685 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
4686 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
4687 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
4688 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4689
Bodo Möllerfc8ee061999-04-11 02:49:35 +00004690 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
4691 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
4692 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
4693 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
4694 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
4695 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
4696 [Bodo Moeller]
4697
Bodo Möllerc7ac31e1999-04-09 20:54:25 +00004698 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
4699 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
4700 [Bodo Moeller]
4701
Ulf Möller9d892e21999-04-09 17:04:32 +00004702 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
4703 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.

Dr. Stephen Hensond2e26dc1999-04-08 23:55:42 +00004709 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
4710 yet...
4711 [Steve Henson]
4712
Ulf Möller99aab161999-04-01 12:34:33 +00004713 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
4714 [Ulf Möller]
4715
Ulf Möller2613c1f1999-03-31 12:38:27 +00004716 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
4717 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
4718 [Ulf Möller]
4719
Bodo Möller6d02d8e1999-03-31 12:06:30 +00004720 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
4721 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
4722 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
4723 [Bodo Moeller]
4724
4725 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
4726 [Bodo Moeller]
4727
Dr. Stephen Hensonee0508d1999-03-29 17:50:26 +00004728 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
4729 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
4730 [Steve Henson]
4731
Dr. Stephen Henson8d8c7261999-03-28 23:17:34 +00004732 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
4733 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
4734 to library startup routines.
4735 [Steve Henson]
4736
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcefcb1999-03-28 17:46:10 +00004737 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
4738 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
4739 codes along the way.
4740 [Steve Henson]
4741
Dr. Stephen Henson4b518c21999-03-28 01:00:56 +00004742 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
4743 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12

4749 [Steve Henson]
4750
Ben Laurieba423ad1999-03-27 13:03:37 +00004751 *) Add LinuxPPC support.

4770 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
4771 [Ben Laurie]
4772
4773 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
4774 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
4775 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
4776 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.

4778
Ralf S. Engelschallafb23061999-03-20 13:04:12 +00004779 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
4780 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
4781 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL

4784
Dr. Stephen Henson199d59e1999-03-14 01:16:45 +00004785 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
4786 Malloc, Free.

4788
Ben Laurieb4899bb1999-03-12 20:41:09 +00004789 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
4790 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4791
Ben Laurie29c0fcc1999-03-12 20:26:27 +00004792 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
4793 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
4794 if someone would make that last step automatic.
4795 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
4796
Ben Lauriecadf1261999-03-12 19:58:43 +00004797 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
4798 [Ben Laurie]
4799
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00004800 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
4801 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
4802 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
4803 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
4804 [Steve Henson]
4805
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00004806 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
4807 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
4808 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
4809 [Steve Henson]
4810
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00004811 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
4812 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
4813 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
4814 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
4815 installed as `perl').

Ben Laurieb241fef1999-03-09 11:37:23 +00004828 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
4829 [Ben Laurie]
4830
Dr. Stephen Hensond4d2f981999-03-09 03:01:48 +00004831 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
4832 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
4833 is horrible: I feel ill....
4834 [Steve Henson]
4835
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00004836 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
4837 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
4838 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
4839 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.

4843 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4844
Ralf S. Engelschallc0e538e1999-03-08 11:41:26 +00004845 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
4846 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
4847 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
4848 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4849
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00004850 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
4851 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
4852 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
4853 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
4854 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
4855 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
4856 openssl_bio.xs.
4857 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4858
Ben Laurie26a08461999-03-07 15:08:38 +00004859 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.

Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00004868 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
4869 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
4870 in CRLs.

Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00004872
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00004873 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
4874 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
4875 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
4876 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
4877 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
4878 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
4879 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
4880 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
4881 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
4882 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
4883 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4884
Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +00004885 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
4886 [Ben Laurie]
4887
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +00004888 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
4889 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
4890 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
4891 for linking it into DSOs.
4892 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4893
Ben Laurief415fa31999-03-06 14:09:36 +00004894 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
4895 Fixed.
4896 [Ben Laurie]
4897
Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +00004898 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
4899 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
4900 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
4901 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
4902 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
4903 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4904
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00004905 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
4906 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
4907 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
4908 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
4909 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
4910 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
4911 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4912
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00004913 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
4914 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
4915 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
4916 encryption.
4917 [Ben Laurie]
4918
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00004919 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
4920 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
4921 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
4922 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
4923 [Steve Henson]
4924
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00004925 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
4926 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
4927 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
4928 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
4929 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
4930 field as blank.
Dr. Stephen Henson9985bed1999-03-04 23:29:51 +00004931 [Steve Henson]
4932
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +00004933 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
4934 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
4935 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
4936 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
4937 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4938
Ralf S. Engelschalla06c6021999-03-04 07:54:01 +00004939 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
4940 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
4941 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
4942
Ralf S. Engelschall8d697db1999-03-04 07:47:27 +00004943 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/

4945
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +00004946 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
4947 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
4948 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
4949 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
4950 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
4951 [Steve Henson]
4952
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00004953 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
4954 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
4955 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
4956 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
4957 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00004958 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
4959 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
4960 [Ben Laurie]
4961
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00004962 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
4963 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
4964 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
4965 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
4966 [Ben Laurie]
Ralf S. Engelschall74d7abc1999-02-27 12:17:40 +00004967
4968 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
4969 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
Ralf S. Engelschall0172f981999-01-30 11:36:05 +00004970
Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00004971 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
4972 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
4973 [Steve Henson]
4974
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00004975 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
4976 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
4977 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
4978 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
4979 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
4980 (e.g. s_server).
4981 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
4982 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
4983 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
4984 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
4985 no way to reconfigure them.
4986 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
4987 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
4988 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
4989 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
4990 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
4991 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4992
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00004993 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
4994 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
4995 recognized by the users.
4996 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4997
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00004998 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
4999 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
5000 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
5001 already masked variable.

5003
Ralf S. Engelschalldef9f431999-02-25 10:54:27 +00005004 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c

5006
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +00005007 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
5008 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
5009 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

5011
Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +00005012 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
5013 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
5014 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5015
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00005016 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
5017 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
5018 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
5019 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
5020 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
5021 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
5022 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
5023 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
5024 now, too.
5025 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5026
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00005027 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
5028 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.

5030
Dr. Stephen Hensona43aa731999-02-23 00:07:46 +00005031 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
5032 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
5033 config file.
5034 [Steve Henson]
5035
Ben Laurie0849d131999-02-22 21:21:08 +00005036 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).

5038
Ben Laurie06ab81f1999-02-21 20:03:24 +00005039 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
5040 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
5041 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher

5055 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
5056 [Steve Henson]
5057
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +00005058 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
5059 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
5060 [Steve Henson]
5061
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00005062 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
5063 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
5064 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
5065 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
5066 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
5067 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.

5073
5074 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
5075 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
5076 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number

5093
Dr. Stephen Henson5c008791999-02-14 00:40:13 +00005094 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since

5104 [Steve Henson]
5105
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +00005106 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
5107 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
5108 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil

5121 vectors if you have them.
5122 [Ben Laurie]
5123
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00005124 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was

5129 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
5130 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
5131 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
5132 If you do a:
5133 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00005137 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
5138 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
5139 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
5140 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain

Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00005146 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
5147 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
5148 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
5149 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
5150 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
5151 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
5152 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
5153 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
5154 the crypto/md/ stuff).
5155 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5156
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00005157 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
5158 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
5159 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
5160 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
5161 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
5162 [Steve Henson]
5163
Dr. Stephen Hensonbceacf91999-02-09 01:29:37 +00005164 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
5165 INTEGER code.
5166 [Steve Henson]
5167
Mark J. Cox351d8991999-01-31 12:14:39 +00005168 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.

5173
Ben Lauriea96e7811999-01-30 17:53:00 +00005174 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
5175 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
5176 [Ben Laurie]
5177
Ralf S. Engelschalle04a6c21999-01-30 11:50:48 +00005178 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.

Dr. Stephen Henson9fe84291999-01-29 01:53:55 +00005187 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
5188 few typos.
5189 [Steve Henson]
5190
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00005191 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
5192 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
5193 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
5194 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5195
Dr. Stephen Henson92c046c1999-01-28 00:16:44 +00005196 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.

5203 [Steve Henson]
5204
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +00005205 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
5206 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
5207 [Steve Henson]
5208
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00005209 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
5210 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
5211 CA extensions.
5212 [Steve Henson]
5213
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00005214 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
5215 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00005216 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00005217
Dr. Stephen Henson9aeaf1b1999-01-24 00:50:01 +00005218 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
5219 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
5220 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
5221 [Steve Henson]
5222
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00005223 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
5224 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
5225 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
5226 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
5227 properly to be processed.
5228 [Steve Henson]
5229
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +00005230 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
5231 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
5232 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
5233 [Ben Laurie]
5234
Ben Laurieb13a1551999-01-19 19:18:20 +00005235 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
5236 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
5237
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00005238 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
5239 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
5240 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
5241 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
5242 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
5243 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
5244 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
5245 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
5246 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00005249 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
5250 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
5251 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
5252 to regenerate it if needed.
5253 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
5254 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
5255
5256 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.

5258
Dr. Stephen Hensonfdd3b641999-01-17 15:10:33 +00005259 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
5260 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
5261 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
5262 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
5263 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
5264 [Steve Henson]
5265
Ben Lauriedabba111999-01-17 14:20:20 +00005266 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.

5270 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5271
Ben Laurie2c1ef381999-01-17 14:10:08 +00005272 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also

5276
Ben Lauriec3ae9a41999-01-16 18:46:23 +00005277 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
5278 [Ben Laurie]
5279
Dr. Stephen Hensonee13f9b1999-01-14 18:25:07 +00005280 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
5281 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
5282 [Steve Henson]
5283
Dr. Stephen Henson27eb6221999-01-14 18:21:57 +00005284 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.

5286
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00005287 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
5288 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
5289 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
5290 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
5291 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
5292 OID is not part of the table.
