Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00004 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7 [xx XXX 2000]
5
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00006 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
7 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
9 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
10 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
11 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
12 [Steve Henson]
13
Bodo Möller57108f02001-01-19 07:37:56 +000014 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
15 [Bodo Moeller]
16
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +000017 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
18 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
19 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
20 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
21 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
22 printout format cleaned up.
23 [Steve Henson]
24
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +000025 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
26 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
27 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
28 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
29 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
30 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
31 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
32 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
33 [Steve Henson]
34
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +000035 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
36 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
37 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
38 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
39 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
40 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
41 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
42 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
43 [Steve Henson]
44
Bodo Möllerdfebac32001-01-15 11:35:24 +000045 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
46 extensions from a separate configuration file.
47 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
48 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
49 section to use.
50 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
51
Dr. Stephen Henson6308af12001-01-14 14:07:10 +000052 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
53 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
54 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
55 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
56 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
57
Dr. Stephen Henson5782ceb2001-01-13 01:48:38 +000058 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
59 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
60 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
61 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
Bodo Möllerc67cdb52001-01-12 14:50:44 +000064 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
65 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
66 the given serial number (according to the index file).
67 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
68 in the index file.
69 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
70
Bodo Möllerd1998582001-01-11 13:23:19 +000071 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
72 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
73 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
74 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
75
Richard Levitte10a29752001-01-11 12:58:37 +000076 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
77 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
78
Dr. Stephen Henson9b4dc832001-01-11 00:52:50 +000079 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
80 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
81 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
82 [Steve Henson]
83
Bodo Möller673b3fd2001-01-10 15:15:36 +000084 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
85 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
86 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
87 [Bodo Moeller]
88
Bodo Möllerc06648f2001-01-10 14:26:32 +000089 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
90 call failed, free the DSA structure.
91 [Bodo Moeller]
92
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +000093 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
94 file name and line number information in additional arguments
95 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
96 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
97 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
98 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
99 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
100 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +0000101
102 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
103 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
104 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
105 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
106
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +0000107 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
108 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
109 extended allocation function is enabled.
110 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
111 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
112 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +0000113
Dr. Stephen Hensoncbf0f452001-01-10 01:06:31 +0000114 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
115 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
116 [Steve Henson]
117
Geoff Thorpe3c914842001-01-09 00:24:38 +0000118 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
119 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
Geoff Thorpe56a67ad2001-01-09 16:39:04 +0000120 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
121 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
122 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
Geoff Thorpe3c914842001-01-09 00:24:38 +0000123 [Geoff Thorpe]
124
Lutz Jänicke599c0352001-01-09 16:44:59 +0000125 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
126 If an EGD or PRNGD is running and enough entropy is returned, automatic
127 seeding like with /dev/[u]random will be performed.
128 Positions tried are: /etc/entropy, /var/run/egd-pool.
129 [Lutz Jaenicke]
130
Richard Levitte0c61e292001-01-08 10:59:26 +0000131 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +0000132 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
133 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
134 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
135 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
136 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
137 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
138 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
139 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
Richard Levitte0c61e292001-01-08 10:59:26 +0000140 [Richard Levitte]
141
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +0000142 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
143 provide utility functions which an application needing
144 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
145 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
146 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
147
148 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
149 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
150 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
151 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
152 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
153 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
154 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
155 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
156 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
157
158 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
159 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
160 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
161 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
162 [Steve Henson]
163
164 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +0000165 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
166 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
167 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
168 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
169 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
170 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
171 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
172 will be added elsewhere.
173 [Steve Henson]
174
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf0d1762001-01-04 01:46:36 +0000175 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
176 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
177 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
178 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
179 [Steve Henson]
180
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +0000181 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
182 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
183 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
184 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
185 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
186 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
187 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
188 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
189 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
190 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
191 to produce the required SET OF.
192 [Steve Henson]
193
Richard Levittea6574c22000-12-31 00:26:18 +0000194 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
195 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
196 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
197 [Richard Levitte]
198
Dr. Stephen Hensonecbe0782000-12-31 01:13:04 +0000199 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
200 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
201 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
202 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
203 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
204 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
205 [Steve Henson]
206
Dr. Stephen Henson4e1209e2000-12-30 02:40:26 +0000207 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
208 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
209 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
210 [Steve Henson]
211
Richard Levitte3f07fe02000-12-29 00:05:14 +0000212 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
213 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
214 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
215 [Richard Levitte]
216
Dr. Stephen Henson78d3b812000-12-29 18:23:55 +0000217 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
Dr. Stephen Henson73e92de2000-12-28 22:24:50 +0000218 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
219 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
220 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
221 code will still work when these eventually go away.
Dr. Stephen Henson09ab7552000-12-28 19:18:48 +0000222 [Steve Henson]
223
Dr. Stephen Hensonec558b62000-12-28 01:05:05 +0000224 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
225 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
226 [Steve Henson]
227
Dr. Stephen Henson57d2f212000-12-24 18:02:33 +0000228 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
229 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
230 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
231 certifcates and CRLs.
232 [Steve Henson]
233
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +0000234 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
235 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
236 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
237 [Steve Henson]
238
Bodo Möller3880cd32000-12-18 11:35:32 +0000239 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
240 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
241 when writing a 32767 byte record.
242 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
243
Bodo Möllerf640ee92000-12-18 09:00:48 +0000244 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
Bodo Möller126fe082000-12-19 12:31:41 +0000245 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
Bodo Möllerf640ee92000-12-18 09:00:48 +0000246
247 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
248 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
249 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
Bodo Möller126fe082000-12-19 12:31:41 +0000250 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
251 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
Bodo Möllerf640ee92000-12-18 09:00:48 +0000252
Dr. Stephen Henson9c67ab22000-12-16 01:19:24 +0000253 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
254 entries for variables.
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +0000255 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson9c67ab22000-12-16 01:19:24 +0000256
Bodo Möller1456d182000-12-20 10:09:08 +0000257 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
258 [Bodo Moeller]
259
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +0000260 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
261 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
262 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
263 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +0000264 [Bodo Moeller]
265
266 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
267 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
268 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
269 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
270 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
271 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
272 [Bodo Moeller]
273
Geoff Thorpe2a860642000-12-14 21:49:48 +0000274 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
275 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
276
Dr. Stephen Henson2c15d422000-12-14 18:42:28 +0000277 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
278 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
Dr. Stephen Hensonc08523d2000-12-15 13:42:00 +0000279 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
Dr. Stephen Henson2c15d422000-12-14 18:42:28 +0000280 [Steve Henson]
281
Dr. Stephen Hensonde487512000-12-14 00:53:10 +0000282 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
283 print routines.
284 [Steve Henson]
285
Dr. Stephen Henson06db4252000-12-13 23:54:30 +0000286 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
287 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
288 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
289 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
290 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
291 order did not reflect the encoded order.
292 [Steve Henson]
293
Dr. Stephen Henson36f554d2000-12-13 18:21:51 +0000294 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
295 [Steve Henson]
296
Dr. Stephen Henson2aff7722000-12-13 13:47:33 +0000297 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
298 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
299 for now but they will eventually go away.
300 [Steve Henson]
301
Dr. Stephen Henson9d6b1ce2000-12-08 19:09:35 +0000302 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +0000303 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
304 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
305 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
306 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
307 has also been converted to the new form.

309
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +0000310 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
311 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
312 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
313 for negative moduli.
314 [Bodo Moeller]
315
316 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
317 of not touching the result's sign bit.
318 [Bodo Moeller]
319
Bodo Möller80d89e62000-12-07 08:48:58 +0000320 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
321 set.
322 [Bodo Moeller]
323
Geoff Thorpef1919c32000-12-04 03:35:35 +0000324 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
325 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
326 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
327 type-specific callbacks.
328 [Geoff Thorpe]
329
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +0000330 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
331 [Ulf Möller]
332
Bodo Möllera47b5052000-12-04 19:04:55 +0000333 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
334 RFC 2712.

340
Bodo Möllerfc2e05c2000-11-30 22:34:57 +0000341 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
342 [Bodo Moeller]
343
Richard Levitte0ae485d2000-11-30 13:04:14 +0000344 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
Ulf Möller4b757c82000-12-01 01:51:04 +0000345 in sections depending on the subject.

Richard Levitte20f88b92000-11-30 10:25:45 +0000348 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
349 Windows.

351
Bodo Möller6b5d39e2000-11-30 00:20:20 +0000352 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
Bodo Mölleraa66eba2000-12-06 21:33:58 +0000353 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
354 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
355 be handled deterministically).
Bodo Möller6b5d39e2000-11-30 00:20:20 +0000356 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
357
Lutz Jänickec6a926d2000-11-29 18:06:18 +0000358 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
359 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
360 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
361 result of the server certificate verification.)

363
Bodo Möller499e1672000-11-29 09:41:19 +0000364 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
Bodo Möllerbdec3c52000-11-29 11:06:50 +0000365 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
366 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)

368
Bodo Möllera0aae682000-12-25 18:40:46 +0000369 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
370 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
Bodo Möller725c8882000-12-26 12:07:23 +0000371 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
Bodo Möllera0aae682000-12-25 18:40:46 +0000372 [Bodo Moeller]
373
374 *) Fix SSL_peek:
375 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
376 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
377 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
378 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
379 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
380 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
381 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
382 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.

384
Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +0000385 *) New function BN_kronecker.
386 [Bodo Moeller]
387
388 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
389 positive unless both parameters are zero.
390 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
391 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
392 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
393 [Bodo Moeller]
394
395 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
396 sign of the number in question.
397
398 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
399
400 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
401 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
402 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
403 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
404 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
405 [Bodo Moeller]
406
Geoff Thorpeef8b6012000-11-29 20:02:00 +0000407 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
408 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
409 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
410 happening the other way round.

Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +0000413 *) New function BN_swap.
414 [Bodo Moeller]
415
416 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
417 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
418 results on negative inputs.
419 [Bodo Moeller]
420
421 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
422 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
423 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
424 [Bodo Moeller]
425
426 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +0000427 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +0000428 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
429 and add new functions:
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +0000430
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +0000431 BN_nnmod
432 BN_mod_sqr

437 BN_mod_lshift1
438 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
439 BN_mod_lshift
440 BN_mod_lshift_quick
441
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +0000442 These functions always generate non-negative results.
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +0000443
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +0000444 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
445 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +0000446
447 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
448 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
449 be reduced modulo m.

451
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +0000452 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
453 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
454 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +0000455 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
456 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +0000457 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
458 differing sizes.
459 [Richard Levitte]
460
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +0000461 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
462 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
463 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
464 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
465 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
466
467 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
468 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
469 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
470 cause any problems.
471 [Bodo Moeller]
472
Richard Levitteccb96432000-11-08 17:51:37 +0000473 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
474 [Richard Levitte]
475
Bodo Möller7f7b8d62000-11-08 10:05:34 +0000476 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
477 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
478 [Bodo Moeller]
479
Richard Levittee06433d2000-11-07 11:25:26 +0000480 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable

483
Richard Levitte10e473e2000-11-06 22:15:50 +0000484 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +0000485 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
486 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly

493
Richard Levitte020fc822000-11-06 21:15:54 +0000494 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
495 [Richard Levitte]
496
Richard Levitte6b77e6d2000-11-06 06:52:47 +0000497 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
498 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
499 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
500 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
501 [Richard Levitte]
502
Richard Levitte11c0f122000-11-02 20:33:04 +0000503 *) Add the following functions:
504
505 ENGINE_load_cswift()
506 ENGINE_load_chil()
507 ENGINE_load_atalla()
508 ENGINE_load_nuron()
509 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
510
511 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
512 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
513 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
514 libraries unless it's really needed.
515
516 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
517 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
518 declarations (they differed!).
519 [Richard Levitte]
520
Richard Levitte69e78052000-11-02 19:24:48 +0000521 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.

547 [Richard Levitte]
548

Dr. Stephen Henson627ec352000-10-20 00:36:45 +0000574 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces

579
Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +0000580 *) NCONF changes.
581 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
582 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
583 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
584 binary backward compatibility.
585 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
586 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
587 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an

600
601 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.

645 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
646 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
647 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
648 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +0000649 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +0000650 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated

656
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +0000657 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
658 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
659 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
660 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
661 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
662 appropriately.
663 [Steve Henson]
664
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +0000665 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
666 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
667 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
668 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
669 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
670 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
671 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
672 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
673 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
674 together.
675 [Steve Henson]
676
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +0000677 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
678 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
679 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
680 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
681
682 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
683 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
684 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
685 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
686 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
687 the answer.
688
689 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
690 been tested well enough.

700 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
701 include zero length content when signing messages.
702 [Steve Henson]
703
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +0000704 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
705 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +0000706 [Bodo Möller]

Richard Levitte0e05f542000-09-15 21:22:50 +0000708 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
709 [Richard Levitte]
710
Ulf Möller1d84fd62000-09-14 18:37:53 +0000711 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
712 wrong sign.
713 [Ulf Möller]
714
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +0000715 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
716 packages. The default package contains applications, application
717 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
718 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
719 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
720 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
721 [Richard Levitte]
722
Richard Levittecc995262000-09-14 13:11:56 +0000723 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
724 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
725
Richard Levitte72660f52000-09-14 12:48:48 +0000726 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
727 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
728
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +0000729 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
730 random number < q in the DSA library.
Ulf Möller523d7782000-09-13 02:01:35 +0000731 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +0000732
Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +0000733 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
734 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
735 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
736 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
737 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
738 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
739 just makes things more complicated.)
740 [Bodo Moeller]
741
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +0000742 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
743 from EGD.
744 [Ben Laurie]
745
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +0000746 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
747 work better on such systems.
748 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
749
Dr. Stephen Henson84b65342000-09-07 23:14:26 +0000750 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
751 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
752 keyid to the certificates aux info.
753 [Steve Henson]
754
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +0000755 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
756 if there was more than one signature.
757 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
758
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +0000759 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
760 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
761 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
762 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
763 [Richard Levitte]
764
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +0000765 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
766 rather than always using the current time.
767 [Steve Henson]
768
769 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
770 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
771 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
772 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
773 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
774 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +0000775
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +0000776 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
777 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +0000778
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +0000779 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +0000780
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +0000781 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
782 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
783 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
784 the same hash value.
785
786 As a result various functions (which were all internal
787 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
788 structure. This will break anything that messed round
789 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +0000790
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +0000791 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
792 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +0000793
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +0000794 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
795 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
796 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
797 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
798 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
799 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
800 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +0000801
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +0000802 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
803
804 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
805 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
806 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
807 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
808 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
809 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
810 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
811 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
812
813 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
814 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
815
816 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
817 to customise the verify behaviour.
818 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +0000819
Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +0000820 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
821 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
822 [Steve Henson]
823
824 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
825 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
826 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
827 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
828 request is improperly encoded.
829 [Steve Henson]
830
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +0000831 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
832 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
833 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +0000834
835 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.

837
Bodo Möllerbbb8de02000-09-04 15:34:43 +0000838 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
839 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
840 words set to zero.)
841 [Bodo Moeller]
842
843 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
844 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
845 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
846 [Bodo Moeller]
847
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +0000848 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
849 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
850 BIO/fp routines also added.
851 [Steve Henson]
852
Bodo Möllera545c6f2000-09-01 09:54:25 +0000853 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.

855
Ben Laurie7049ef52000-08-30 18:14:28 +0000856 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by

858 demos/state_machine.
859 [Ben Laurie]
860
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +0000861 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
862 generation and verification.
863 [Steve Henson]
864
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +0000865 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
866 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
867 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
868 encode and decode it manually.
869 [Steve Henson]
870
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +0000871 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c

873 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
874
875 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
876 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
877 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
878 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
879
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +0000880 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
881 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
882 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
883 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
884 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
885 [Steve Henson]
886
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +0000887 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
888 [Richard Levitte]
889
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +0000890 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
891 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
892 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
893
894 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
895 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
896 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
897 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
898 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
899 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
900 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
901 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
902
903 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
904 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
905
906 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
907
908 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
909 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
910 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
911
912 [Richard Levitte]
913
Richard Levitte368f8552000-08-17 10:25:46 +0000914 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
915 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
916 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
917 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
918 [Richard Levitte]

Richard Levitte88364bc2000-08-11 19:43:20 +0000923 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
924 [Richard Levitte]
925
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +0000926 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
927 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
928 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
929 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
930 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
931 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
932 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
933 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
934 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
935 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
936 short or long names are found.
937 [Steve Henson]
938
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +0000939 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.

Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +0000942 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
943 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
944 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
945 version rollback attacks was not effective.
946
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +0000947 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
948 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
949 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
950 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
951 [Bodo Moeller]
952
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +0000953 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
954 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
955 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
956 [Richard Levitte]
957
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +0000958 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
959 these print out strings and name structures based on various
960 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
961 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
962 to allow the various flags to be set.
963 [Steve Henson]
964
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +0000965 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
966 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
967 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
968 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
969 dates to be checked.
970 [Steve Henson]
971
972 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
973 negative public key encodings) on by default,
974 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
975 [Steve Henson]
976
977 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
978 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
979 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
980 [Steve Henson]
981
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +0000982 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
983 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
984 [Bodo Moeller]
985
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +0000986 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
987 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
988 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
989 are always statically linked for now, but there are
990 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
991 This has been tested on Linux and True64.
992 [Richard Levitte]
993
Ulf Möllerc0722722000-07-19 21:35:35 +0000994 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:

1001 [Steve Henson]
1002
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00001003 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
1004 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
1005 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
1006 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
1007 form signing output easier to verify.
1008 [Steve Henson]
1009
1010 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
1011 [Steve Henson]
1012
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00001013 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
1014 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
1015 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
1016 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
1017 are needed because all other string types have virtually
1018 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
1019 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
1020 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
1021 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
1022 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
1023 [Steve Henson]
1024
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00001025 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
1026
1027 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
1028 the syntax given in objects.README.
1029 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
1030 obj_mac.h.
1031 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
1032 obj_mac.h.
1033
1034 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
1035 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
1036 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
1037 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
1038 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
1039 consistent name changes.
1040 [Richard Levitte]
1041
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00001042 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').

1050
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00001051 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
1052 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
1053 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
1054 of safestack.h .
1055 [Steve Henson]
1056
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00001057 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
1058 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
1059 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
1060 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
1061 [Steve Henson]
1062
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00001063 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
1064 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
1065 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
1066 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
1067 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
1068 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
1069 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the

1075
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00001076 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
1077 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
1078 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
1079 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
1080 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
1081 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
1082 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
1083 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
1084 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
1085 algorithm to openssl-dev.

1087
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00001088 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
1089 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
1090 Corrected to 'c.kname'.

Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00001093 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
1094 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
1095 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and

1098
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00001099 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
1100 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
1101 [Bodo Moeller]
1102
1103 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
1104 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
1105 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
1106 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
1107 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
1108 [Bodo Moeller]
1109
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00001110 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other

1124
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00001125 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
1126 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
1127 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
1128 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
1129 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
1130 approach.
1131 [Geoff Thorpe]
1132
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00001133 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
1134 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
1135 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
1136 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
1137 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
1138 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
1139 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
1140 [Geoff Thorpe]
1141
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00001142 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
1143 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
1144 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
1145 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
1146 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
1147 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
1148 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
1149 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
1150 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
1151 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
1152 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
1153 [Bodo Moeller]
1154
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00001155 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
1156 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
1157 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
1158 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
1159 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
1160
1161 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
1162 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
1163 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
1164 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
1165 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
1166
1167 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
1168 ciphers.
1169
1170 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00001171 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
1172 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
1173 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
1174
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00001175 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
1176
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00001177 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
1178 of macros.
1179
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00001180 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
1181 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
1182 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
1183 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00001184
1185 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a

1187 any installed hardware versions can.

Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00001190 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
1191 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated

1193 number.
1194 [Bodo Moeller]
1195
1196 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
1197 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
1198 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with

1205
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00001206 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards

1209
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00001210 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
1211 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
1212 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash

1223
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00001224 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
1225 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
1226 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
1227 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
1228 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
1229 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
1230 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
1231 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
1232 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
1233 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
1234 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.

Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00001251 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
1252 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
1253 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
1254 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
1255 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.

1257
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00001258 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code

Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00001271 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
1272 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
1273 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
1274 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
1275 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
1276 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
1277 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
1278 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
1279 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
1280 or "the configuration storage API"...

Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00001290
1291 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
1292 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
1293 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
1294 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
1295 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
1296 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
1297 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
1298
1299 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
1300 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.

Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00001345 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
1346 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00001347 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.

1364 its own key.
1365 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
1366 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
1367 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining

1379 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
1380 with all the associated security issues.
1381
1382 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
1383 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
1384 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
1385 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
1386 use the value in the default purpose.

1407 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
1408 [Bodo Moeller]
1409
1410 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
1411 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
1412 [Bodo Moeller]
1413
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00001414 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
1415 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
1416 which was free.
1417 [Steve Henson]
1418
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00001419 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
1420 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
1421 [Bodo Moeller]
1422
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00001423 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
1424 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
1425 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
1426 [Bodo Moeller]
1427
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00001428 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
1429 number generation fails.
1430 [Bodo Moeller]
1431
Bodo Möller55f7d652000-03-01 07:57:25 +00001432 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
1433 [Bodo Moeller]
1434
Ralf S. Engelschall010712f2000-02-29 15:29:02 +00001435 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64

1437
Ulf Möller2da0c112000-02-28 19:16:41 +00001438 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
1439 [Ulf Möller]
1440
Ulf Möllera4709b32000-02-28 19:14:46 +00001441 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
1442 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]

Richard Levitte74cdf6f2000-02-28 11:59:02 +00001447 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00001448
Dr. Stephen Henson82b93182000-02-28 14:11:19 +00001449 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
1450 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
1451 [Steve Henson]
1452
Dr. Stephen Henson587bb0e2000-02-27 17:34:30 +00001453 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
1454 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
1455
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00001456 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
Andy Polyakova5770be2000-02-27 02:34:37 +00001457 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00001458 [Ulf Möller]
1459
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00001460 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
1461 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
1462 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
1463 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
1464 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
1465 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
1466
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00001467 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
1468 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
1469 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
1470 for example.
1471 [Steve Henson]
1472
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00001473 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
1474 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
1475 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
1476 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
1477 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
1478 counter, some don't.)
1479 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
1480 counters or duplicate objects.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc7cb16a2000-02-26 01:55:33 +00001481 [Steve Henson]
1482
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00001483 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
1484 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
1485 [Steve Henson]
1486
Ulf Möller505b5a02000-02-24 22:57:42 +00001487 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
1488 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
1489 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
1490
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00001491 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
1492 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
1493 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
1494 or -rand.
1495 [Ulf Möller]
1496
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00001497 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
1498 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
1499 [Steve Henson]
1500
1501 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
1502 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
1503 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
1504 cipher list.
1505 [Steve Henson]
1506
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00001507 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
1508 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
1509 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
1510 [Steve Henson]
1511
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00001512 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
1513 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
1514 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
1515 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
1516 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
1517 should work without changes.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00001518 [Richard Levitte]
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00001519
1520 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
1521 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
1522 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
1523 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
1524 must be defined. E.g.,
1525 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
1526 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
1527 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00001528 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00001529
Bodo Möllerb35e9052000-02-20 23:04:06 +00001530 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
1531 record layer.
1532 [Bodo Moeller]
1533
Dr. Stephen Hensond754b382000-02-20 18:27:23 +00001534 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
1535 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
1536 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
1537 [Steve Henson]
1538
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00001539 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
1540 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
1541 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
1542 request header lines. Some software needs this.
1543 [Steve Henson]
1544
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00001545 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
1546 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
1547 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
1548 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
1549 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
1550 is prompted for as usual.
1551 [Steve Henson]
1552
Ben Lauriebd03b992000-02-16 22:15:39 +00001553 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
1554 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
1555 autodetect the card and use it if present.
1556 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
1557
Dr. Stephen Hensonde469ef2000-02-15 14:19:44 +00001558 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
1559 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
1560 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
1561 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
1562 [Steve Henson]
1563
Andy Polyakovbcba6cc2000-02-12 23:33:01 +00001564 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
1565 [Andy Polyakov]
1566
Dr. Stephen Hensond13e4eb2000-02-12 03:03:04 +00001567 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
1568 of seed file.
1569 [Steve Henson]
1570
Bodo Möller3ebf0be2000-02-11 17:18:50 +00001571 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
Bodo Möllerbb325c72000-02-10 21:50:52 +00001572 [Bodo Moeller]
1573
Dr. Stephen Hensonf07fb9b2000-02-08 01:34:59 +00001574 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
1575 [Steve Henson]
1576
Ulf Möllercae55bf2000-02-06 15:56:59 +00001577 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
1578 bits.
1579 [Ulf Möller]
1580
1581 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
1582 [Ulf Möller]
1583
Andy Polyakov0fad6cb2000-02-06 11:15:20 +00001584 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
1585 [Andy Polyakov]
1586
Ulf Möller4a6222d2000-02-06 00:25:39 +00001587 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
1588 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
1589 [Ulf Möller]
1590
Dr. Stephen Henson66430202000-02-05 21:07:56 +00001591 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
1592 options to produce them.
1593 [Steve Henson]
1594
Ulf Möller9b141122000-02-05 14:17:32 +00001595 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
1596 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
1597 [Ulf Möller]
1598
1599 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
1600 for p == 0.
1601 [Ulf Möller]
1602
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00001603 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
1604 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
1605 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
1606 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
1607 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
1608 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
1609 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
1610 [Steve Henson]
1611
Dr. Stephen Henson82fc1d92000-02-03 02:56:48 +00001612 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
1613 [Steve Henson]
1614
Bodo Möllere74231e2000-02-02 21:20:44 +00001615 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
1616 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
1617 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
1618 [Bodo Moeller]
1619
Bodo Möller2c5fe5b2000-02-01 07:50:42 +00001620 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
Ulf Möller8efb6012000-02-01 02:21:16 +00001621 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
1622
Ulf Möller98d0b2e2000-01-30 23:34:33 +00001623 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
1624 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
1625 [Ulf Möller]
1626
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00001627 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
1628 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
1629 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
1630 has already seen).
1631 [Bodo Moeller]
1632
1633 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
1634 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
1635
1636 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
1637 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
1638 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
1639 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
1640 generation becomes much faster.
1641
1642 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00001643 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
1644 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
1645 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
1646 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
1647 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
1648 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
1649 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
1650 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
1651 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00001652 [Bodo Moeller]
1653
Bodo Möller7865b872000-01-30 02:40:38 +00001654 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00001655 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
1656 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
1657 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00001658 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
1659 trial division stage.

1664 [Steve Henson]
1665
Dr. Stephen Henson90644dd2000-01-28 01:35:31 +00001666 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00001715 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
1716 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
1717 wrong.
1718
1719 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
1720 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
1721 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
1722
1723 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
1724 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
1725 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
1726 an error is flagged.
1727
1728 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
1729 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
1730 the readability was also increased :-)

Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00001740 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
1741 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
1742 [Steve Henson]
1743
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00001744 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
1745 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
1746 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
1747 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
1748 instead.
1749
1750 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
1751 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
1752 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
1753 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00001754 because they handle more complex structures.)

1756
Ulf Mölleraa82db42000-01-16 21:10:00 +00001757 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
1758 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
1759 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.

1761
Ulf Möllereb952082000-01-13 20:59:17 +00001762 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00001763 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
1764 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00001765 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00001766 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
1767 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
1768 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).

1770
Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00001771 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
1772 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00001773 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00001774 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00001775 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00001776 [Bodo Moeller]
1777
Bodo Möller3cc6cde2000-01-11 08:09:27 +00001778 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
Bodo Möllerc51ae172000-01-11 01:07:26 +00001779 [Bodo Moeller]
1780
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00001781 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
1782 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00001783 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
1784 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
1785 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
1786 to use this.
1787
1788 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
1789 code.
1790 [Steve Henson]
1791
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00001792 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
1793 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
1794 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
1795 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
1796 [Steve Henson]
1797
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00001798 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
1799 [Ulf Möller]
1800
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00001801 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
1802 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
1803 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
1804 international characters are used.
1805
1806 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
1807 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
1808 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
1809 in ASN1 order.
1810 [Steve Henson]
1811
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00001812 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
1813 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
1814 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
1815 request.
1816
1817 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
1818 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
1819 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
1820 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00001821 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00001822 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
1823
1824 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
1825 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
1826 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00001827 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00001828
1829 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
1830 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
1831 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
1832 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
1833 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
1834 types at all.
1835 [Steve Henson]
1836
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00001837 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
1838 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
1839 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
1840 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
1841 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
1842
1843 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
1844 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
1845 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
1846 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
Bodo Möllerf2d9a322000-01-06 00:24:24 +00001847 [Bodo Moeller]
1848
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00001849 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
1850 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00001851 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00001852 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
1853 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
1854 SHA1.
1855 [Andy Polyakov]
1856
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00001857 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
1858 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
1859 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
1860 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
1861 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
1862 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
1863 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
1864 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
1865
1866 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
1867 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00001868 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00001869 [Steve Henson]
1870
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00001871 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
1872 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
1873 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
1874 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
1875 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
1876 support to pkcs8 application.
1877 [Steve Henson]
1878
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00001879 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
1880 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
1881 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
1882 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
1883 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
1884 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
1885 [Bodo Moeller]
1886
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00001887 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
1888 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
1889 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
1890 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
1891 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
1892 consistency.
1893 [Bodo Moeller]
1894
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00001895 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
1896 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
1897 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
1898 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
1899 example.
1900 [Steve Henson]
1901
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00001902 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
1903 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
1904 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
1905 and any application specific purposes.
1906
1907 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
1908 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
1909 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
1910 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00001911 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00001912 if the certificate is self signed.
1913 [Steve Henson]
1914
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00001915 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
1916 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
1917 [Steve Henson]
1918
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00001919 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
1920 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00001921 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00001922 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
1923 [Steve Henson]
1924
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00001925 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
1926 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
1927 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
1928 Update documentation.
1929 [Steve Henson]
1930
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00001931 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
1932 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00001933 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00001934 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
1935 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
1936 [Steve Henson]
1937
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00001938 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
1939 for details.
1940 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
1941
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00001942 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
1943 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
1944 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00001945 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
1946 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
1947 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00001948 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
1949 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
1950 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
1951 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00001952
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00001953 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
1954
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00001955 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
1956 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
1957 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
1958 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
1959 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00001960
1961 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
1962 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00001963 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
1964 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
1965 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
1966 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
1967 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
1968 request additional information:
1969 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
1970 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00001971
1972 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
1973 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
1974 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
1975 options.
1976
1977 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
1978 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
1979
1980 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
1981 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
1982 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
1983
1984 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.

Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00001986
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00001987 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
1988 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
1989 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
1990 algorithm.
1991 [Steve Henson]
1992
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00001993 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
1994 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
1995 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
1996
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00001997 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
1998 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
1999 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
2000 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
2001 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
2002 included in OpenSSL.
2003 [Steve Henson]
2004
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00002005 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
2006 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
2007 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
2008 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
2009 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
2010 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
2011 [Bodo Moeller]
2012
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00002013 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
2014 PKCS12 structure.
2015 [Steve Henson]
2016
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00002017 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
2018 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
2019 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
2020 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
2021 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
2022 structure.
2023 [Steve Henson]
2024
2025 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
2026 need initialising.
2027 [Steve Henson]
2028
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00002029 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
2030 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
2031 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
2032 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
2033 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
2034 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
2035 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
2036 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
2037 be maintained manually.
2038
2039 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
2040 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
2041 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
2042 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
2043 work because people forget to call this function]
2044 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
2045 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
2046 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
2047 [Steve Henson]
2048
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00002049 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
2050 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
2051 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
2052 should be discouraged from doing it.
2053 [Ben Laurie]
2054
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00002055 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
2056 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
2057 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
2058 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
2059 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
2060 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
2061 [Steve Henson]
2062
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00002063 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
2064 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
2065 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00002066
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00002067 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00002068 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
2069 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00002070
2071 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
2072 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
2073 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
2074 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
2075 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
2076 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00002077
2078 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
2079 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
2080 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00002081
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00002082 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
2083 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
2084 and vice versa.
2085
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00002086 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
2087 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
2088 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
2089 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.

2092 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00002093 [Steve Henson]
2094
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00002095 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
2096 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
2097 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
2098 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
2099 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00002100 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00002101 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
2102 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
2103 keys so we should be OK.
2104
2105 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
2106 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
2107 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
2108 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
2109 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
2110 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00002111 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00002112
2113 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
2114 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
2115 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
2116
2117 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00002118 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
2119 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
2120 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
2121 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
2122 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
2123 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00002124 [Steve Henson]
2125
2126 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
2127 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
2128 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
2129 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
2130 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
2131 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
2132 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
2133 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
2134 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
2135 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
2136 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
2137 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
2138 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
2139 [Steve Henson]
2140
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00002141 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
2142 [Steve Henson]
2143
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00002144 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
2145 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
2146 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
2147 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
2148 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
2149 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
2150 single self signed certificate. This means that:
2151 openssl verify ss.pem
2152 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
2153 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
2154 is OK.
2155 [Steve Henson]
2156
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00002157 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
2158 (and add it to external session representation).
2159 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
2160 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
2161 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
2162 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
2163 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
2164 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
2165 security holes.

Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00002168 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the

2170 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.

2176 [Steve Henson]
2177
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00002178 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
2179 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
2180 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust

2191 [Steve Henson]
2192
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00002193 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document

2195 [Steve Henson]
2196
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00002197 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
2198 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00002199 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
2200 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
2201 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
2202 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
2203 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.

2205
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00002206 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
Dr. Stephen Henson954ef7e1999-11-12 01:42:25 +00002207 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
2208 [Steve Henson]
2209
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00002210 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
2211 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
2212 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
2213 manpages and fix a few bugs.
2214 [Steve Henson]
2215
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00002216 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
2217 [Steve Henson]
2218
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00002219 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
2220 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
2221 [Steve Henson]
2222
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00002223 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
2224 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
2225 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
2226 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
2227 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00002228 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00002229 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
2230 using the new 'x509' options.
2231
2232 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
2233 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
2234 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
2235 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
2236 for all purposes.
2237 [Steve Henson]
2238
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00002239 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
2240 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
2241 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
2242 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
2243 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.

2245
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00002246 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
2247 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
2248 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
2249 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
2250 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00002251 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00002252 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
2253 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
2254 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
2255 the key length and effective key length are equal.
2256 [Steve Henson]
2257
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00002258 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
2259 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
2260 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
2261 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
2262 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
2263 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
2264 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
2265 [Steve Henson]
2266
2267 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
2268 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
2269 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
2270 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
2271 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
2272 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
2273 openssl.cnf for more info.
2274 [Steve Henson]
2275
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00002276 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00002277 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00002278 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
2279 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
2280 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
2281 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
2282 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
2283 md should be large enough anyway.
2284 [Bodo Moeller]
2285
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00002286 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
2287 for handling the random seed file.
2288
2289 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
2290 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00002291 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00002292 s_client,
2293 s_server,
2294 x509 (when signing).
2295 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
2296 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00002297 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00002298
2299 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00002300 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00002301 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00002302 that support '-rand'.

2306 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
2307 [Bodo Moeller]
2308
2309 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
2310 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
2311 [Bill Perry]
2312
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00002313 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
2314 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
2315 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
2316 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
2317 is suitable.
2318 [Steve Henson]
2319
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00002320 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
2321 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
2322 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
2323 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
2324 [Steve Henson]
2325
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00002326 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
2327 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
2328 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
2329 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
2330 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
2331 print out all the purposes.
2332 [Steve Henson]
2333
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00002334 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated

2336 [Steve Henson]
2337
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00002338 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
2339 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
2340 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
2341 single function call.
2342 [Steve Henson]
2343
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00002344 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC

2346 [Andy Polyakov]
2347
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00002348 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced

2350 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
2351 [Steve Henson]
2352
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00002353 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer

2356
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00002357 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
2358 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
2359 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
2360 "server.pem".
2361 [Steve Henson]
2362
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00002363 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
2364 a public key to be input or output. For example:
2365 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
2366 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
2367 [Steve Henson]
2368
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00002369 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained

2371 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
2372 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
2373
2374 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
2375 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
2376 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.

2378
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00002379 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
2380 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
2381 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
2382 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
2383 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
2384 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
2385 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
2386 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
2387 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
2388 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
2389 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
2390 trivial: move one line.

Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00002393 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
2394 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
2395 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
2396 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
2397 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
2398 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
2399 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
2400 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
2401 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
2402 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
2403 with an event loop for example.
2404 [Steve Henson]
2405
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00002406 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
2407 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
2408 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
2409 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
2410 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
2411 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
2412 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
2413 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
2414 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
2415 [Steve Henson]
2416
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00002417 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
2418 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
2419 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00002420 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00002421 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
2422 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
2423 [Steve Henson]
2424
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00002425 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
2426 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
2427 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
2428 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
2429
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00002430 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
2431 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
2432 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
2433 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
2434 key generation.
2435 [Steve Henson]
2436
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00002437 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
Bodo Möller6f7af151999-09-10 14:03:21 +00002438 (still largely untested)
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00002439 [Bodo Moeller]
2440
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00002441 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
2442 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
2443 [Steve Henson]
2444
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00002445 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
2446 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
2447 [Steve Henson]
2448
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00002449 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
2450 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
2451 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
2452 [Bodo Moeller]
2453
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00002454 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
2455 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
2456 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
2457 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
2458 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
2459 [Steve Henson]
2460
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00002461 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
2462 [Andy Polyakov]
2463
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00002464 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
2465 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
2466 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
2467 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
2468 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
2469 in ca.
2470 [Steve Henson]
2471
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00002472 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
2473 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
2474 1.OU="Unit name 1"
2475 2.OU="Unit name 2"
2476 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
2477 [Steve Henson]
2478
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00002479 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
2480 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
2481 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
2482 are otherwise ignored at present.
2483 [Steve Henson]
2484
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00002485 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00002486 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00002487 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
2488 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
2489 copied until the next read.
2490 [Steve Henson]
2491
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00002492 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
2493 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
2494 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
2495 [Steve Henson]
2496
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00002497 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
2498 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
2499 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
2500 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
2501 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
2502 associated functions.
2503 [Steve Henson]
2504
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00002505 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
2506 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
2507 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
2508 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
2509 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
2510 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
2511 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
2512 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
2513 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00002514 memory BIOs.
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00002515 [Steve Henson]
2516
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00002517 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
2518 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
2519 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
2520 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
2521 [Bodo Moeller]
2522
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00002523 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
2524 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
2525 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
2526 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
2527 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
2528 functionality.
2529 [Steve Henson]
2530
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00002531 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
2532 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
2533 under Win32.
2534 [Steve Henson]
2535
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00002536 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00002537 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
2538 extensions to be obtained and added.
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00002539 [Steve Henson]
2540
Bodo Möller1b1a6e71999-08-09 13:01:48 +00002541 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
2542 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
2543 [Bodo Moeller]
2544
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00002545 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
Ralf S. Engelschalldfbaf951999-08-08 19:12:26 +00002546
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00002547 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
Ralf S. Engelschalldfbaf951999-08-08 19:12:26 +00002548 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00002549
Ralf S. Engelschall96395151999-08-08 10:15:43 +00002550 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
2551 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
2552
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00002553 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
2554 program.
2555 [Steve Henson]
2556
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00002557 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
2558 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
2559 DH parameters contain its length).
2560
2561 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
2562 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
2563 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
2564 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
2565 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
2566 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
2567 utter importance to use
2568 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
2569 or
2570 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
2571 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
2572 attacks may become possible!
2573 [Bodo Moeller]
2574
2575 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
2576 [Bodo Moeller]
2577
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00002578 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
2579 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
2580 [Steve Henson]
2581
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00002582 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
2583 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
2584 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
2585 or long name.
2586 [Steve Henson]
2587
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00002588 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
2589 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
2590 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
2591 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00002592 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
2593 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
2594 private key operations.
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00002595 [Steve Henson]
2596
Andy Polyakova0618e31999-07-25 15:13:49 +00002597 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
2598 [Andy Polyakov]
2599
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00002600 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
2601 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
2602 to
2603 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
2604 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
2605 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
2606 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
2607 the password callback is called.
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00002608 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00002609
2610 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
2611
2612 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
2613 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
2614 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
2615 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
2616 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
2617 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
2618 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00002619
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00002620 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
2621 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
2622 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00002623 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
Bodo Möller57119941999-07-29 12:57:23 +00002624 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
2625 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00002626 [Bodo Moeller]
2627
Andy Polyakov73634551999-07-20 15:50:20 +00002628 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
2629 [Andy Polyakov]
2630
Ulf Möller64344501999-07-16 00:50:45 +00002631 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
2632 delete an unused file.
2633 [Ulf Möller]
2634
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00002635 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
2636 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
2637 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
2638 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
2639 [Steve Henson]
2640
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00002641 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
2642 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
2643 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
2644 of an error.
2645 [Bodo Moeller]
2646
Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00002647 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
2648 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
2649 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
2650
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00002651 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
2652 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
2653 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
2654 comparison" warnings.
2655 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00002656 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00002657
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5139391999-07-11 12:40:46 +00002658 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
2659 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
2660 derived keys are printed to stderr.
2661 [Steve Henson]
2662
Dr. Stephen Henson0ab8beb1999-07-11 12:30:55 +00002663 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
2664 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
2665
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00002666 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
2667 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
2668
2669 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
2670 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
2671 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
2672
2673 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
2674 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
2675 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
2676 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
2677 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
2678 this bug.
2679 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
2680
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00002681 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
2682 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00002683 Applications can use
2684 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
2685 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
2686 "off" is now the default.
2687 The library internally uses
2688 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
2689 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
2690 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
2691
2692 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
2693 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00002694
2695 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
2696 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
2697 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00002698
2699 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
2700
2701 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
2702 extensions.

2704
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00002705 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
2706 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
2707 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00002708 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00002709
2710 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
2711 a single record has been written.
2712 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
2713 retries use the same buffer location.

2723
Dr. Stephen Hensonce8b2571999-06-29 22:22:42 +00002724 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
2725 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
2726 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
2727 [Steve Henson]

Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00002734 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
2735 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
2736 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
2737 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
2738 point to the end.

2741
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00002742 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
2743 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
2744 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
2745 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
2746 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
2747 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).

Dr. Stephen Hensondbd665c1999-06-22 01:38:31 +00002750 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the

2754
Bodo Möllerf76a8081999-06-21 11:32:25 +00002755 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the

Bodo Möller975d3dc1999-07-09 13:02:14 +00002757 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00002758 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.

2763 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
2764 [Steve Henson]
2765
Bodo Möllera1113061999-06-18 16:14:18 +00002766 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.

2777 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
2778 [Bodo Moeller]
2779

2784
Dr. Stephen Henson9bce3071999-06-11 22:30:45 +00002785 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value

2790 [Steve Henson]
2791
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7d135b1999-06-10 17:32:52 +00002792 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
2793 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
2794 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
2795 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.

2797
Ralf S. Engelschall9d9b5591999-06-10 08:13:52 +00002798 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5

2800 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2801
Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00002802 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
2803 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
2804 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
2805 unusual formatting.
2806 [Steve Henson]
2807
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00002808 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
2809 to use the new extension code.
2810 [Steve Henson]
2811
2812 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
2813 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
2814 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a

Ulf Möller908eb7b1999-06-08 16:35:11 +00002838 *) DES library cleanups.
2839 [Ulf Möller]
2840
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00002841 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
2842 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
2843 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
2844 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
2845 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
2846 of v2.0.

Bodo Möllerd4443ed1999-06-07 13:34:25 +00002849 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00002853 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
2854 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
2855 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
2856 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
2857 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
2858 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
2859 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
2860 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
2861 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
2862 [Steve Henson]
2863
Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00002864 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00002865 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
2866 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
2867 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
2868 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
2869 value doesn't matter.

2936
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00002937 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
2938 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
2939 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
2940 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
2941 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
2942 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
2943 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
2944 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
2945 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
2946 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
2947 [Steve Henson]
2948
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00002949 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
2950 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
2951 [Steve Henson]
2952
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00002953 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00002954 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00002955 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
2956 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
2957 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
2958
2959 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
2960 [Bodo Moeller]
2961
Dr. Stephen Henson84fa7041999-05-16 00:25:36 +00002962 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious

Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00002970 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion

2973 key elements as negative integers.

3005
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00003006 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
3007 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
3008 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
3009 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
3010 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
3011 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
3012 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
3013 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
3014 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
3015
3016 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
3017 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
3018 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
3019 does not influence s as it used to.
3020
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00003021 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00003022 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
3023 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
3024 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
3025 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
3026 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

3037 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
3038 and 'x509').
3039 [Steve Henson]
3040
3041 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
3042 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
3043 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
3044 extension option.
3045 [Steve Henson]
3046
Ben Laurie5b640021999-05-07 15:42:23 +00003047 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
3048 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
3049 [Ben Laurie]
3050
Ulf Möller31a674d1999-05-06 00:46:34 +00003051 *) Support Borland C++ builder.

3068
Ralf S. Engelschalldee75ec1999-05-04 10:15:02 +00003069 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
3070 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3071
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00003072 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
3073 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
3074 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
3075 DER-encoded.)
3076 [Bodo Moeller]
3077
Bodo Möller7f897141999-05-01 03:20:40 +00003078 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
3079 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
3080 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
3081 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
3082 now it really counts the depth.
3083 [Bodo Moeller]
3084
Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00003085 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
3086 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
3087 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
3088 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
3089 didn't match the private key).
3090
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00003091 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
Bodo Möllerdd1462f1999-05-01 00:07:42 +00003092 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
3093 connection using the SSL_CTX).

3097 [Ulf Möller]
3098
Bodo Möllere5f30451999-04-29 21:52:08 +00003099 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
3100 David Harris.
3101 [Bodo Moeller]
3102
Bodo Möller87bc2c01999-04-29 16:10:41 +00003103 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
3104 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
3105 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
3106 [Bodo Moeller]
3107
Bodo Möller6e6acfd1999-04-28 22:33:54 +00003108 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
3109 [Bodo Moeller]
3110
Bodo Möllerddeee821999-04-28 22:06:19 +00003111 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to

3114 [Bodo Moeller]
3115
Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00003116 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.

Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00003118
Ulf Möllerf5d7a031999-04-27 01:14:46 +00003119 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
3120 [Ulf Möller]
3121
Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00003122 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
3123 extension adding in x509 utility.
3124 [Steve Henson]
3125
Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00003126 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
3127 [Ulf Möller]
3128
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00003129 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
3130 prototypes.
3131 [Steve Henson]
3132
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00003133 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.

Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00003135
Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00003136 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
3137 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
3138 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
3139 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
3140 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
3141 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
3142 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
3143 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00003144 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
3145 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

3147
Bodo Möller018b4ee1999-04-23 22:38:22 +00003148 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.

3150
Bodo Möller85f48f71999-04-22 14:28:38 +00003151 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
3152 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
3153 [Bodo Moeller]
3154
Bodo Möller90b8bbb1999-04-22 13:38:03 +00003155 *) Fix some race conditions.
3156 [Bodo Moeller]
3157
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00003158 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
3159 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
3160 [Steve Henson]
3161
Ulf Möller8e10f2b1999-04-21 17:31:05 +00003162 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
3163 [Ulf Möller]
3164
Ben Laurie49971381999-04-21 13:24:58 +00003165 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of

3195
Ben Lauriee7788021999-04-17 21:25:43 +00003196 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
3197 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
3198 [Ben Laurie]
3199
Dr. Stephen Hensonc83e5231999-04-17 23:55:39 +00003200 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE

3211
Dr. Stephen Henson28a98801999-04-14 23:44:41 +00003212 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to

Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00003235 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
3236 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
3237 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
3238 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
3239 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
3240 [Ben Laurie]
3241
Ralf S. Engelschallf9a25931999-04-12 11:45:14 +00003242 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
3243 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
3244 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
3245 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.

3247
Ralf S. Engelschall2f0cd191999-04-12 10:36:16 +00003248 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
3249 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
3250 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
3251 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3252
Ralf S. Engelschall268c2101999-04-12 09:59:05 +00003253 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the

3256 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3257
Bodo Möllerfc8ee061999-04-11 02:49:35 +00003258 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
3259 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
3260 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
3261 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
3262 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
3263 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.

3286 [Ulf Möller]
3287
Bodo Möller6d02d8e1999-03-31 12:06:30 +00003288 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and

3366 [Ben Laurie]
3367
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00003368 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
3369 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
3370 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
3371 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
3372 [Steve Henson]
3373
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00003374 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
3375 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
3376 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
3377 [Steve Henson]
3378
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00003379 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
3380 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
3381 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
3382 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
3383 installed as `perl').

3402 [Steve Henson]
3403
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00003404 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
3405 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI

3412
Ralf S. Engelschallc0e538e1999-03-08 11:41:26 +00003413 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added

3417
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00003418 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
3419 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
3420 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
3421 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
3422 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
3423 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
3424 openssl_bio.xs.

Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00003440
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00003441 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
3442 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
3443 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
3444 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
3445 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
3446 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
3447 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
3448 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
3449 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
3450 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.

3455
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +00003456 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
3457 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
3458 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
3459 for linking it into DSOs.

Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +00003466 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
3467 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
3468 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
3469 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
3470 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
3471 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3472
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00003473 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
3474 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
3475 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
3476 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
3477 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
3478 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
3479 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3480
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00003481 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
3482 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
3483 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
3484 encryption.
3485 [Ben Laurie]
3486
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00003487 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
3488 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
3489 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
3490 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
3491 [Steve Henson]
3492
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00003493 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
3494 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
3495 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
3496 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
3497 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
3498 field as blank.

3500
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +00003501 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
3502 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
3503 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
3504 relationship to the OpenSSL project.

3513
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +00003514 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
3515 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
3516 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
3517 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
3518 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
3519 [Steve Henson]
3520
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00003521 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
3522 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
3523 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
3524 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
3525 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00003526 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
3527 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
3528 [Ben Laurie]
3529
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +00003530 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to

Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00003539 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
3540 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
3541 [Steve Henson]
3542
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00003543 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
3544 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
3545 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
3546 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
3547 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
3548 (e.g. s_server).
3549 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
3550 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
3551 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
3552 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
3553 no way to reconfigure them.
3554 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
3555 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
3556 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
3557 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
3558 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
3559 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3560
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00003561 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature

3563 recognized by the users.
3564 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3565
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00003566 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
3567 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
3568 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
3569 already masked variable.

3574
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +00003575 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
3576 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
3577 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +00003580 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure

3582 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3583
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00003584 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
3585 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
3586 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
3587 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
3588 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
3589 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
3590 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
3591 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
3592 now, too.
3593 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3594
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00003595 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested

3629
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00003630 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
3631 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
3632 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
3633 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
3634 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure

3669 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
3670 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
3671 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
3672 [Steve Henson]
3673
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +00003674 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
3675 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
3676 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
3677 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
3678 [Ben Laurie]
3679
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +00003680 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
3681 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
3682 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
3683 so it wasn't spotted.
3684 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
3685
Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +00003686 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
3687 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
3688 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
3689 vectors if you have them.
3690 [Ben Laurie]
3691
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00003692 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
Ben Laurie436d3181999-02-13 12:39:50 +00003693 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
3694 [Ben Laurie]
3695
Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00003696 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
3697 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
3698 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
3699 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
3700 If you do a:
3701 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
3702 it will update them.

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00003705 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
3706 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
3707 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
3708 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
3709 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
3710 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
3711 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
3712 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3713
Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00003714 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
3715 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
3716 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
3717 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
3718 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
3719 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
3720 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
3721 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
3722 the crypto/md/ stuff).
3723 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3724
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00003725 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
3726 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
3727 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
3728 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
3729 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
3730 [Steve Henson]
3731
Dr. Stephen Hensonbceacf91999-02-09 01:29:37 +00003732 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
3733 INTEGER code.
3734 [Steve Henson]
3735
Mark J. Cox351d8991999-01-31 12:14:39 +00003736 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.

3741
Ben Lauriea96e7811999-01-30 17:53:00 +00003742 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
3743 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
3744 [Ben Laurie]
3745
Ralf S. Engelschalle04a6c21999-01-30 11:50:48 +00003746 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.

3757 [Steve Henson]
3758
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00003759 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
3760 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
3761 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
3762 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3763
Dr. Stephen Henson92c046c1999-01-28 00:16:44 +00003764 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.

3771 [Steve Henson]
3772
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +00003773 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
3774 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
3775 [Steve Henson]
3776
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00003777 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
3778 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
3779 CA extensions.
3780 [Steve Henson]
3781
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00003782 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
3783 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.

Dr. Stephen Henson9aeaf1b1999-01-24 00:50:01 +00003786 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
3787 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
3788 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
3789 [Steve Henson]
3790
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00003791 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
3792 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
3793 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
3794 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
3795 properly to be processed.
3796 [Steve Henson]
3797
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +00003798 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
3799 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
3800 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
3801 [Ben Laurie]
3802
Ben Laurieb13a1551999-01-19 19:18:20 +00003803 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
3804 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
3805
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00003806 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
3807 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
3808 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
3809 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
3810 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
3811 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
3812 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
3813 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
3814 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00003817 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
3818 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
3819 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
3820 to regenerate it if needed.

3826
Dr. Stephen Hensonfdd3b641999-01-17 15:10:33 +00003827 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
3828 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
3829 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
3830 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
3831 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.

3847
Dr. Stephen Hensonee13f9b1999-01-14 18:25:07 +00003848 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct

3850 [Steve Henson]
3851

3854
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00003855 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
3856 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
3857 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
3858 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
3859 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
3860 OID is not part of the table.
