Dr. Stephen Hensonbeab0982003-06-01 20:51:58 +00005 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.8 [xx XXX xxxx]
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00006
Geoff Thorpeb6358c82004-03-13 23:57:20 +00007 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
8 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
9 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
10 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
11 [Geoff Thorpe]
12
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +000013 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
14 initialised value as BN_new().
15 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
16
Dr. Stephen Hensonedec6142004-03-08 13:56:31 +000017 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
18 [Steve Henson]
19
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +000020 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
21 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
22 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
23 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
24 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
25 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
26 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
27 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
28 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
29 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
30 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
31 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
32 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
33 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +000034 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +000035
Geoff Thorpe2ce90b92003-10-29 18:04:37 +000036 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
37 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
38 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
39 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
40 [Geoff Thorpe]
41
Geoff Thorpe8dc344c2003-10-29 04:57:05 +000042 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
43 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
44 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
45 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
46 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
47 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
48 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
49 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
50 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
51 [Geoff Thorpe]
52
Geoff Thorpe0991f072003-10-29 04:40:13 +000053 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
54 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
55 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
56 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
57 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
58 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
59 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
60 [Geoff Thorpe]
61
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +000062 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
Geoff Thorpe2aaec9c2003-10-29 04:14:08 +000063 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
64 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
65 these have been updated also.
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +000066 [Geoff Thorpe]
67
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +000068 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
69 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
70 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
71 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
72 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
73 functions.
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +000074 [Steve Henson]
75
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +000076 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
77 structure of type "other".
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +000078 [Steve Henson]
79
Ralf S. Engelschall6bd27f82003-09-25 13:57:58 +000080 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
81 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
82 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
83 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
84 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
85 situation in the script.
86 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
87
Bodo Möller968766c2003-07-22 12:34:21 +000088 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
89 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
90 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
91 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
92 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
93 used as premaster secret.
94 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
95
Bodo Möller652ae062003-07-22 10:39:10 +000096 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
97 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
98 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
99
Richard Levittee666c452003-06-11 22:42:28 +0000100 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
101 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
102
Richard Levitte54f64512003-06-11 20:49:58 +0000103 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
104 control of the error stack.
105 [Richard Levitte]
106
Richard Levitte3bbb0212003-05-01 03:57:46 +0000107 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
108 [Richard Levitte]
109
Richard Levittea5db6fa2003-05-01 03:53:12 +0000110 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
111 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
112 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
113 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
114 [Richard Levitte]
115
Richard Levitte535fba42003-05-01 03:45:18 +0000116 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
117 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
118 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
119 [Richard Levitte]
120
Richard Levitte1ae0a832003-04-29 22:08:57 +0000121 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
122 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
123 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
124 a memory area.
125 [Richard Levitte]
126
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +0000127 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
128 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
129 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
130 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
131 [Richard Levitte]
132
Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +0000133 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
134 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
135 the following flags are defined:
136
137 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
138 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
139 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
140 number.
141
142 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
143 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
144 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
145 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
146 returns zero.
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +0000147 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +0000148
Richard Levitte16b1b032003-04-03 22:33:59 +0000149 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
150 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
151 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
152 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
153 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
154 [Richard Levitte]
155
Richard Levittee6526fb2003-04-03 22:27:24 +0000156 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
157 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
158 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
159 [Richard Levitte]
160
Richard Levittef85b68c2003-04-03 16:33:03 +0000161 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
162 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
163 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
164 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
165 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
166 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
167 [Richard Levitte]
168
Dr. Stephen Henson1a15c892003-03-30 01:51:16 +0000169 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
170 req and dirName.
171 [Steve Henson]
172
Dr. Stephen Henson520b76f2003-03-24 17:04:44 +0000173 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
174 [Steve Henson]
175
Dr. Stephen Hensonf80153e2003-03-21 16:26:20 +0000176 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
177 [Steve Henson]
178
Dr. Stephen Hensona1d12da2003-03-20 17:26:44 +0000179 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
180 [Steve Henson]
181
Geoff Thorpebba2cb32003-03-13 20:28:42 +0000182 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
183 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
184 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
185 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
186 [Geoff Thorpe]
187
Geoff Thorpe879650b2003-03-11 01:49:21 +0000188 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
189 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
190 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
191 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
192 default implementation more easily.
193 [Geoff Thorpe]
194
Dr. Stephen Hensonf0dc08e2003-02-27 01:54:11 +0000195 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
196 in config files.
197 [Steve Henson]
198
Richard Levitte132eaa52003-02-22 14:41:34 +0000199 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
200 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
201 [Richard Levitte]
202
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +0000203 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
204 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
205 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
206 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
207
Dr. Stephen Hensone9ec6392003-02-25 19:03:31 +0000208 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +0000209 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
210 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
211 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
212 [Steve Henson]
213
Richard Levitte2d3de722003-02-13 23:52:54 +0000214 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
215 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
216 to do it.
217 [Richard Levitte]
218
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +0000219 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +0000220 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +0000221 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
Bodo Möller24893ca2003-02-06 19:32:06 +0000222 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +0000223 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
224 scalar * generator).
225 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
226
Dr. Stephen Henson4e5d3a72003-02-05 00:34:31 +0000227 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
228 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
229 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
230 correctly.
231 [Steve Henson]
232
Geoff Thorpe96f70652003-01-30 15:52:40 +0000233 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
234 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
235 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
236 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
237 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
238 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
239 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
240 linker additions, eg;
241 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
242 [Geoff Thorpe]
243
244 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
245 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
246 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
247 [Geoff Thorpe]
248
Lutz Jänickea74333f2003-01-15 14:54:59 +0000249 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
250 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
251 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
252 via PR#459)
253 [Lutz Jaenicke]
254
Geoff Thorpe0e4aa0d2003-01-15 02:01:55 +0000255 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
256 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
257 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
258 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
259 [Geoff Thorpe]
260
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +0000261 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
262 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
263 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
264 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
265 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
266 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
267 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
268 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
269 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
270 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +0000271
272 Example for using the new callback interface:
273
274 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
275 void *my_arg = ...;
276 BN_GENCB my_cb;
277
278 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
279
280 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
281 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
282 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
283 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
284 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
285 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
286 */
287
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +0000288 [Geoff Thorpe]
289
Richard Levittefdaea9e2002-12-08 09:31:41 +0000290 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
291 available to TLS with the number defined in
292 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
293 [Richard Levitte]
294
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +0000295 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
296 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
297
298 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +0000299 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
300 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
301 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +0000302
303 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
304 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
305
306 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
307 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
308 well.
309 [Richard Levitte]
310
Richard Levitte6f17f162002-11-15 16:48:38 +0000311 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
312 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
313 [Richard Levitte]
314
Bodo Möllerb53e44e2002-11-04 13:17:22 +0000315 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating new macros that behave like
316 functions
317
318 void BN_set_sign(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
319 int BN_get_sign(const BIGNUM *a);
320
321 and avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
322 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
323
Bodo Möller5c6bf032002-10-28 13:23:24 +0000324 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
325 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
326 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
327 if applicable.
328 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
329
Bodo Möller19b8d062002-10-28 14:02:19 +0000330 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
331 [Bodo Moeller]
332
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +0000333 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
334 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
335 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
336 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
337 directory engines/.
338 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
339 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
340 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
341 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
Richard Levitte874fee42002-10-12 16:07:31 +0000342 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
343 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
344 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +0000345 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
346
Richard Levitte30afcc02002-10-11 00:37:11 +0000347 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
348 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
349 [Richard Levitte]
350
Dr. Stephen Hensonfc6a6a12002-10-04 21:22:47 +0000351 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
352 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
353
Dr. Stephen Henson9a48b072002-10-03 23:53:52 +0000354 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
355 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
356 files while avoiding the low level API.
357
358 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
359 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
360 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
361 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
362
363 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
364 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
365 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
366 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
367 instead of the low level API.

Dr. Stephen Henson230fd6b2002-10-03 12:38:52 +0000370 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
371 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
372 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
373 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
374 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
375 PKCS#7 code.
376
377 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
378 down to the template encoder.

380
Bodo Möller9226e212002-09-10 07:34:45 +0000381 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
382 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
383 [Bodo Moeller]
384
Bodo Möllerea262262002-08-09 08:56:08 +0000385 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
386 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
387 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.

Bodo Möllere172d602002-08-09 08:43:04 +0000390 *) Add ECDH engine support.
391 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
392
393 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
394 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
395
Bodo Möller95ecacf2002-08-02 15:02:03 +0000396 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
397 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
398 [Bodo Moeller]
399
Bodo Möller6fb60a82002-08-02 14:57:53 +0000400 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
401 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
402 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
403 [Bodo Moeller]
404
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +0000405 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
406 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
407
408 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
409 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
410
411 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
412 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
413 New EC_METHOD:
414
415 EC_GF2m_simple_method
416
417 New API functions:
418
419 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
420 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
421 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +0000422 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
423 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
424 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
425
426 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
427 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
428 enable it).
429
430 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
431 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
432 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
433 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
434 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +0000435 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
436 various internal method names.)
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +0000437
438 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
439 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.

Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +0000444 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +0000445 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
446
447 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
448 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
449 methods are undefined.
450
451 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
452 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
453
454 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
455 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
456 length of the modulus.
457
458 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
459 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
460
461 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
462 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).

466
Bodo Möller1dc920c2002-08-02 13:03:55 +0000467 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
468 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
469 used) in the following functions [macros]:
470
471 BN_GF2m_add
472 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
473 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
474 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
475 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
476 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
477 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
478 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
479 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
480 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
481
482 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
483 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
484
485 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
486 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
487 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
488 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
489 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
490 where
491 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
492 This applies to the following functions:
493
494 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
495 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
496 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
497 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
498 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
499 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
500 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
501 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
502 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
503 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
504
505 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
506
507 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
508 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
509
510 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
511
Bodo Möller909abce2002-08-02 18:26:02 +0000512 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
513 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
514 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
515 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
516 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).

524
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +0000525 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
526 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
527
528 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
529 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
530 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
531 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
532 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
533
Bodo Möller254ef802002-06-12 14:01:17 +0000534 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
535 functions

537 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
538 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
539 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
540 These control ASN1 encoding details:
Bodo Möllerb8e0e122002-06-12 14:19:01 +0000541 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
542 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +0000543 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for

547 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
Bodo Möller5f3d6f72002-06-18 08:38:59 +0000548
549 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
550 functions
551 EC_GROUP_set_seed()

556
557 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
558 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
559 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
560 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
561
Bodo Möller6cbe6382002-05-30 13:16:03 +0000562 *) Add functions

584 [Bodo Moeller]
585
Bodo Möller82652aa2002-03-20 16:04:04 +0000586 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via

Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +0000598
Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +0000599 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
600 library. Most notably,
601 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
602 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
603 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
604 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
605 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
Bodo Möllere172d602002-08-09 08:43:04 +0000606 extracted before the specific public key;

Bodo Mölleraf28dd62002-03-18 13:10:45 +0000610 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,

623 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
624 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
625 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
626 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),

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

640
Dr. Stephen Hensondc90f642004-02-19 18:16:38 +0000641 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
642 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
643 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
644 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at

646 [Steve Henson]
647
Dr. Stephen Hensond4575822004-02-01 13:39:51 +0000648 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when

704 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
705 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
706 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening

Bodo Möllerc5541552003-03-20 17:31:30 +0000724
725 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
726 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
727 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
Bodo Möller5679bcc2003-04-02 09:50:22 +0000728 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
729 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
730 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
731 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
732 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared

744
745 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
746 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
747 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
748 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
749 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CAN-2003-0078)

Richard Levitte758f9422003-02-18 12:14:57 +0000755 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
756 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
757 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
758 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
759 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
760
761 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
762 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
763 used by default when no-err is given.

774
Dr. Stephen Hensoncf566632003-02-12 17:06:02 +0000775 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
776 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
777 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
778 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
779
780 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
781
782 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
783
784 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
785
786 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
787 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
788 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
789 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
790 root is omitted).

Lutz Jänicke8ec16ce2003-01-15 09:51:22 +0000806 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
807 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
808 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
809 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to

Richard Levitte14676ff2002-12-12 17:40:15 +0000843 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
Richard Levittea1457872002-12-13 07:30:53 +0000844 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
845 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
Richard Levitte14676ff2002-12-12 17:40:15 +0000846 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
847 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
848 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
849 of libcrypto.
850 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
851 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
852 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
853 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
854 have to be made anyway).

1190 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)

1197 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
1198 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
1199
1200 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
1201 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
1202 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
1203 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
1204 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
1205 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
1206 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
1207 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
1208 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
1209 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
1210
1211 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
1212 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.

Richard Levitte2d57b732002-01-26 01:14:09 +00001249 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00001250 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
1251 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
1252 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
1253 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00001254
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00001255 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
1256 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
1257 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
1258 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
1259
1260 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
1261 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
1262 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
1263 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
1264
1265 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
1266 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
1267 won't work.
Richard Levittec2e4f172001-10-24 21:21:12 +00001268
1269 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
1270 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
1271 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00001272 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
1273 default), and then completely removed.

Dr. Stephen Hensonf1558bb2001-10-21 02:09:15 +00001277 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
1278 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
1279 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
1280 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
1281 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a

1291 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
1292 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
1293 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
1294 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
1295 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
1296 requires the destination to be valid.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001310 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00001311 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
1312 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
1313 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
1314 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
1315 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
1316 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
1317 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
1318 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
1319 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
1320 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
1321 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
1322 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
1323 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
1324 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
1325 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
1326 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
1327 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
1328 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
1329 the new code.

1342 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
1343 false once a handshake has been completed.
1344 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
1345 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
1346 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
1347 client has followed the request.)

Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00001351 By default, clients may request session resumption even during

1389 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
1390 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
1391 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
1392 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
1393 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001403 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001404 md_data void pointer.
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00001405 [Ben Laurie]
1406
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001407 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00001408 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
1409 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
1410 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
1411 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
1412 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
1413 [Ben Laurie]
1414
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001415 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00001416 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
1417 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
1418 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
1419 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
1420 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
1421 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
1422 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
1423 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
1424 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
1425 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
1426 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
1427 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
1428 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
1429 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +00001430
1431 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
1432 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
1433 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00001434 [Geoff Thorpe]
1435
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001436 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +00001437 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
1438 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
1439 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
1440 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
1441 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
1442 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
1443 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
1444 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
1445 [Geoff Thorpe]
1446
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001447 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00001448 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
1449 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
1450 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
1451 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +00001452
1453 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".

1461
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001462 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
Dr. Stephen Henson35bf3542001-08-17 00:33:43 +00001463 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
1464 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
1465 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
1466 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
1467 [Steve Henson]
1468
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001469 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00001470 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +00001471 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00001472 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
1473 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
1474 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

1476
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001477 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
Bodo Möller76f8a1f2002-06-26 14:21:16 +00001478 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
1479 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00001480 Usage example:
1481
1482 EVP_MD_CTX md;
1483
1484 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
1485 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());

1491
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001492 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
Ben Laurie8408f4f2001-07-31 13:33:58 +00001493 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
1494 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
1495 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00001496 anyway): E.g.,
1497
1498 des_key_schedule ks;
1499
1500 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
1501 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
1502
1503 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)

1505
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001506 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +00001507 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
1508 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
1509 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
1510 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
1511 functions prevents this.
1512 [Steve Henson]
1513
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001514 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.

1516
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001517 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
Ben Lauriec518ade2001-07-21 10:24:07 +00001518 correct _ecb suffix.
1519 [Ben Laurie]
1520
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001521 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
Dr. Stephen Hensonee306a12001-07-12 20:41:51 +00001522 revocation information is handled using the text based index
1523 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
1524 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
1525 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.

1530
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001531 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
Richard Levitte0665dd62001-07-12 04:23:57 +00001532 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
1533 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
1534 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
1535
1536 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
1537 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
1538
1539 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.

1646 internally such as S/MIME.
1647
1648 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and

1663 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
1664
1665 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
1666 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
1667 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
1668 handling.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001671 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
Bodo Möller8a774dc2001-06-11 09:55:20 +00001672 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
1673 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
1674 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
1675 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
1676 a window system and the like.

1678
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001679 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00001680 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
1681 [Geoff]
1682
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001683 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00001684 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
1685 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
1686 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
1687 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
1688 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
1689 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
1690 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
1691 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
1692 ENGINE structure.
1693 [Geoff]
1694
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001695 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9624792001-04-21 12:06:01 +00001696 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
1697 tag cache.
1698 [Steve Henson]
1699
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001700 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00001701 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
1702 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
1703 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
1704 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
1705 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
1706 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
1707 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
1708 [Geoff]
1709
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001710 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00001711 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
1712 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
1713 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
1714 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
1715 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
1716 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
1717 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
1718 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
1719 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
1720 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
1721 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
1722 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
1723 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
1724 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
1725 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
1726 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
1727 [Geoff]
1728
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001729 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00001730 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
1731 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
1732 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
1733 internal engine_int.h header.
1734 [Geoff]
1735
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001736 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00001737 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
1738 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
1739 modify their own ones).
1740 [Geoff]
1741
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001742 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00001743 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
1744 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
1745 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
1746 later on via ctrl() commands.
1747 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
1748 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
1749 structural references.
1750 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
1751 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
1752 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
1753 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
1754 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Möllere13ae962001-09-10 18:59:53 +00001755 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00001756 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
1757 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
1758 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
1759 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
1760 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
1761 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
1762 [Geoff]
1763
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001764 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001765 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +00001766 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
1767 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
1768 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
1769 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
1770 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
1771 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

1773
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001774 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
Dr. Stephen Henson722ca272001-04-02 00:59:19 +00001775 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
1776 [Steve Henson]
1777
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001778 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
Dr. Stephen Henson791bd0c2001-03-16 02:04:17 +00001779 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
1780 [Steve Henson]
1781
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001782 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
Dr. Stephen Henson535d79d2001-03-15 19:13:40 +00001783 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
1784 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
1785 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
1786 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
1787 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
1788 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

1790
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001791 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication

Bodo Möller38374912001-03-11 12:27:24 +00001797 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001802 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
Bodo Möller48fe4d62001-03-10 23:18:35 +00001803
1804 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
1805 operations and provides various method functions that can also
1806 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
1807
1808 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
1809 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.

1827
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001828 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires

1830 [Richard Levitte]
1831
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001832 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4f682d2001-03-10 01:56:48 +00001833 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
1834 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
1835 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
1836 is 40 of more characters long.
1837 [Steve Henson]
1838
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001839 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures

1852
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001853 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
Bodo Möller5277d7c2001-03-07 01:19:07 +00001854
1855 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7

1858 ASN1 error codes
1859 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR

1865 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
1866 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001885 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001886 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
1887 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
1888 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
1889 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
1890 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
1891
1892 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
1893 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
1894
1895 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
1896 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1897
1898 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
1899 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
1900
1901 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
1902 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
1903 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1904 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
1905
1906 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001907 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001908
1909 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00001910 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00001911
1912 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
1913 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
1914 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
1915 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
1916 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
1917 [Richard Levitte]
1918
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001919 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
Dr. Stephen Henson3d2e4692001-02-28 00:51:48 +00001920 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten

1933 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
1934 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses

Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00001936 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
1937 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
1938 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to

Dr. Stephen Hensond7c06e92001-02-23 13:04:24 +00001947 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate

1951
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001952 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00001953 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
1954 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
1955 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
1956 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
1957 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
1958 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
1959 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
1960 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
1961 functions returning pointers to structures is not.

Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00001965 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
1966 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
1967 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
1968 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
1969 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
1970 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".

1978
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001979 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
Richard Levittecf1b7d92001-02-19 16:06:34 +00001980 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
1981 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
1982 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
1983 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00001984 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
1985 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
1986 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
1987 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
1988 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
1989 what is available.

1991
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001992 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
Dr. Stephen Hensonacba75c2001-02-19 13:38:32 +00001993 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
1994 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
1995 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
1996 auto incremented.
1997 [Steve Henson]
1998
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00001999 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6b7ffd2001-02-16 01:35:44 +00002000 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
2001 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
2002 [Steve Henson]
2003
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002004 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
Dr. Stephen Hensonf2e5ca82001-02-14 02:11:52 +00002005 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
2006 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
2007 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
2008 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
2009 [Steve Henson]
2010
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002011 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
Dr. Stephen Hensoncdc7b8c2001-02-14 01:12:41 +00002012 [Steve Henson]
2013
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002014 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
Dr. Stephen Henson67c18012001-02-13 00:37:44 +00002015 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
2016 option to ocsp utility.
2017 [Steve Henson]
2018
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002019 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00002020 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
2021 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
2022 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
2023 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
2024 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
2025 the request is nonce-less.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002028 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
Bodo Möller620cea32001-02-10 13:12:35 +00002029 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
2030 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
2031 [Bodo Moeller]
2032
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002033 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
Dr. Stephen Hensonccb08f92001-02-10 00:56:45 +00002034 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
2035 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
2036 [Steve Henson]
2037
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002038 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
Lutz Jänicke836f9962001-02-09 19:56:31 +00002039 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
2040 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
2041 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
Lutz Jänickeb72fadd2001-08-01 10:07:55 +00002042 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)

2044
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002045 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
Dr. Stephen Hensonc47c6192001-02-09 13:16:21 +00002046 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
2047 appear to exist.
2048 [Steve Henson]
2049
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002050 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
Dr. Stephen Henson8c950422001-02-08 19:36:10 +00002051 additional certificates supplied.
2052 [Steve Henson]
2053
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002054 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
Richard Levitte9235adb2001-02-08 17:59:29 +00002055 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
2056 signature against.
2057 [Richard Levitte]
2058
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002059 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00002060 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
Bodo Möller47234cd2002-05-05 23:47:46 +00002061 AES OIDs.
2062
Bodo Möllerea4f1092002-07-04 08:51:09 +00002063 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
2064 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
2065 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
2066 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
2067 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
2068 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
2069 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
2070 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
2071 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
Dr. Stephen Hensondeb2c1a2001-02-07 18:15:18 +00002072
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002073 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
Dr. Stephen Henson26e083c2001-02-05 00:35:06 +00002074 request to response.
2075 [Steve Henson]
2076
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002077 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00002078 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
2079 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
2080 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
2081 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00002082 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
Dr. Stephen Henson02e4fbe2001-02-03 19:20:45 +00002083 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
2084 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
2085 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
2086 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
2087 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
2088 [Steve Henson]
2089
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002090 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00002091 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00002092 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
Dr. Stephen Henson88ce56f2001-02-02 00:45:54 +00002093 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
2094 [Steve Henson]
2095
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002096 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8470242001-01-28 14:20:13 +00002097 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
2098
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002099 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00002100 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00002101 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00002102 [Steve Henson]
2103
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002104 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00002105 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
2106 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
2107 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
2108 <support@securenetterm.com>]
2109
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002110 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
Dr. Stephen Hensona43cf9f2001-01-24 18:39:54 +00002111 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
2112 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
2113 [Steve Henson]
2114
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002115 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00002116 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
2117 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
2118 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
2119 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
2120 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

2123
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002124 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00002125 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
2126 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
2127 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
2128 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
2129 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
2130 [Steve Henson]
2131
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002132 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00002133 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
2134 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
2135 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
2136 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
2137 printout format cleaned up.
2138 [Steve Henson]
2139
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002140 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00002141 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
2142 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
2143 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
2144 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
2145 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
2146 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
2147 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
2148 [Steve Henson]
2149
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002150 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00002151 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
2152 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
2153 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
2154 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
2155 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
2156 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
2157 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
2158 [Steve Henson]
2159
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002160 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
Bodo Möllerdfebac32001-01-15 11:35:24 +00002161 extensions from a separate configuration file.
2162 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
2163 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
2164 section to use.
2165 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
2166
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002167 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
Dr. Stephen Henson5782ceb2001-01-13 01:48:38 +00002168 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
2169 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
2170 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
2171 [Steve Henson]
2172
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002173 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
Bodo Möllerc67cdb52001-01-12 14:50:44 +00002174 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
2175 the given serial number (according to the index file).
2176 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
2177 in the index file.
2178 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
2179
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002180 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
Bodo Möllerd1998582001-01-11 13:23:19 +00002181 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
2182 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
2183 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
2184
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002185 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
Richard Levitte10a29752001-01-11 12:58:37 +00002186 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
2187
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002188 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
Dr. Stephen Henson9b4dc832001-01-11 00:52:50 +00002189 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
2190 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
2191 [Steve Henson]
2192
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002193 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
Bodo Möller673b3fd2001-01-10 15:15:36 +00002194 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
2195 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
2196 [Bodo Moeller]
2197
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002198 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00002199 file name and line number information in additional arguments
2200 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
2201 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
2202 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
2203 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
2204 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
2205 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +00002206
2207 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
2208 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
2209 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
2210 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
2211
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00002212 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
2213 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
2214 extended allocation function is enabled.
2215 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
2216 a conventional allocation function is enabled.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002219 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
Geoff Thorpe3c914842001-01-09 00:24:38 +00002220 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
Geoff Thorpe56a67ad2001-01-09 16:39:04 +00002221 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
2222 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
2223 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002226 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00002227 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
2228 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
2229 be queried.
2230 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
2231 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
2232 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

2234
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002235 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00002236 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
2237 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
2238 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
2239 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
2240 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
2241 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
2242 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
2243 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002246 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00002247 provide utility functions which an application needing
2248 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
2249 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
2250 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
2251
2252 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
2253 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
2254 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
2255 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
2256 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
2257 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
2258 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
2259 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
2260 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
2261
2262 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
2263 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
2264 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
2265 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
2266 [Steve Henson]
2267
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002268 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00002269 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
2270 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
2271 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
2272 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
2273 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
2274 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
2275 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
2276 will be added elsewhere.
2277 [Steve Henson]
2278
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002279 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf0d1762001-01-04 01:46:36 +00002280 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
2281 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
2282 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
2283 [Steve Henson]
2284
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002285 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00002286 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
2287 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
2288 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
2289 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
2290 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
2291 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
2292 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
2293 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
2294 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
2295 to produce the required SET OF.
2296 [Steve Henson]
2297
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002298 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
Richard Levittea6574c22000-12-31 00:26:18 +00002299 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
2300 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
2301 [Richard Levitte]
2302
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002303 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
Dr. Stephen Hensonecbe0782000-12-31 01:13:04 +00002304 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
2305 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
2306 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
2307 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
2308 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
2309 [Steve Henson]
2310
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002311 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
Dr. Stephen Henson4e1209e2000-12-30 02:40:26 +00002312 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
2313 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
2314 [Steve Henson]
2315
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002316 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
Richard Levitte3f07fe02000-12-29 00:05:14 +00002317 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
2318 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
2319 [Richard Levitte]
2320
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002321 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
Dr. Stephen Henson73e92de2000-12-28 22:24:50 +00002322 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
2323 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
2324 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
2325 code will still work when these eventually go away.

2327
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002328 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the

2330 [Steve Henson]
2331
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002332 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
Dr. Stephen Henson57d2f212000-12-24 18:02:33 +00002333 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
2334 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
2335 certifcates and CRLs.
2336 [Steve Henson]
2337
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002338 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00002339 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
2340 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
2341 [Steve Henson]
2342
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002343 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002347 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +00002348 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
2349 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
2350 storing which locks are currently held by the program.

2352
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002353 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
Bodo Möller3ac82fa2000-12-15 16:40:35 +00002354 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
2355 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
2356 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
2357 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
2358 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
2359 [Bodo Moeller]
2360
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002361 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.

2363
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002364 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
Dr. Stephen Henson2c15d422000-12-14 18:42:28 +00002365 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
Dr. Stephen Hensonc08523d2000-12-15 13:42:00 +00002366 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
Dr. Stephen Henson2c15d422000-12-14 18:42:28 +00002367 [Steve Henson]
2368
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002369 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
Dr. Stephen Hensonde487512000-12-14 00:53:10 +00002370 print routines.
2371 [Steve Henson]
2372
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002373 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
Dr. Stephen Henson06db4252000-12-13 23:54:30 +00002374 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
2375 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
2376 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
2377 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
2378 order did not reflect the encoded order.
2379 [Steve Henson]
2380
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002381 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
Dr. Stephen Henson36f554d2000-12-13 18:21:51 +00002382 [Steve Henson]
2383
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002384 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
Dr. Stephen Henson2aff7722000-12-13 13:47:33 +00002385 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
2386 for now but they will eventually go away.
2387 [Steve Henson]
2388
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002389 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00002390 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
2391 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
2392 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
2393 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
2394 has also been converted to the new form.

2396
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002397 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00002398 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
2399 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
2400 for negative moduli.
2401 [Bodo Moeller]
2402
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002403 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00002404 of not touching the result's sign bit.
2405 [Bodo Moeller]
2406
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002407 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
Bodo Möller80d89e62000-12-07 08:48:58 +00002408 set.
2409 [Bodo Moeller]
2410
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002411 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
Geoff Thorpef1919c32000-12-04 03:35:35 +00002412 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
2413 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the

2416
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002417 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in

Bodo Mölleraa66eba2000-12-06 21:33:58 +00002431 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless

Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +00002445 positive unless both parameters are zero.
2446 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
2447 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
2448 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
2449 [Bodo Moeller]
2450
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002451 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +00002452 sign of the number in question.
2453
2454 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
2455
2456 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
2457 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
2458 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
2459 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
2460 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().

2506
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002507 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00002508 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
2509 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002517 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00002518 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
2519 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
2520 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
2521 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
2522
2523 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect

2548
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002549 *) Add the following functions:

2553 ENGINE_load_atalla()
2554 ENGINE_load_nuron()
2555 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
2556
2557 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
2558 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
2559 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
2560 libraries unless it's really needed.
2561
2562 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
2563 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
2564 declarations (they differed!).

2615
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00002616 *) NCONF changes.
Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00002617 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
2618 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
2619 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
2620 binary backward compatibility.
2621 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
2622 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
2623 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an

2689 [Bodo Moeller]
2690
2691 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
2692 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
2693 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
2694 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
2695 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2696
2697 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
2698 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
2699 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
2700 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
2701 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
2702 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
2703 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
2704 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
2705 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00002837 *) Changes in security patch:
2838
2839 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
2840 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
2841 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
2842 F30602-01-2-0537.
2843
2844 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
2845 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
2846 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
2847 supplied buffer. (CAN-2002-0659)
2848 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
2849
2850 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
2851 happen in practice.
2852 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2853
2854 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
2855 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CAN-2002-0655)
2856 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
2857
2858 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
Lutz Jänickec046fff2002-07-30 13:04:04 +00002859 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CAN-2002-0656)
2860 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2861
2862 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
2863 supply an oversized client master key. (CAN-2002-0656)
2864 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2865
Bodo Möller46ffee42002-05-16 12:51:18 +00002866 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00002867
Bodo Möller8df61b52002-04-26 08:28:34 +00002868 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
2869 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
2870 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
2871
Bodo Möller1064aca2002-04-17 09:31:34 +00002872 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
2873 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2874
Lutz Jänicke2940a122002-04-15 09:55:40 +00002875 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
2876 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
2877 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
2878 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
2879 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
2880 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
2881 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2882
Bodo Möller82b0bf02002-04-13 22:47:20 +00002883 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
2884 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
2885 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
2886 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
2887 [Bodo Moeller]
2888
2889 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
2890 [Bodo Moeller]
2891
2892 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
2893 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
2894 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
2895 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
2896 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
2897 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
2898
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00002899 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
2900 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
2901 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
2902 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
2903 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
2904 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2905
2906 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
2907 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
2908 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
2909 BN_generate_prime().)
2910
2911 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
2912 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
2913 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
2914 better.
2915 [Bodo Moeller]
2916
2917 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
2918 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
2919 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2920
2921 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
2922 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
2923 when using non-blocking I/O.
2924 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
2925
2926 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
2927 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
2928
2929 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
2930 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
2931 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2932
2933 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
2934 configuration for the versions before that.
2935 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
2936
2937 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
2938 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
2939 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
2940 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
2941 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2942
2943 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
2944 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
2945 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
2946 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2947
2948 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
2949 value is 0.
2950 [Richard Levitte]
2951
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00002952 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
2953 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
2954 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2955
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00002956 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
2957 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
2958
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00002959 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
2960 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
2961 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
2962 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
2963 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
2964 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
2965 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
2966 session cache.
2967
2968 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
2969 using a local variable.
2970 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
2971
2972 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
2973 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
2974 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2975
2976 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
2977 [Richard Levitte]
2978
2979 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
2980 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
2981
2982 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
2983 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
2984 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
2985
2986 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
2987
2988 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
2989 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
2990 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
2991 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
2992 [Bodo Moeller]
2993
2994 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
2995 present.
2996 [Steve Henson]
2997
2998 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
2999 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
3000 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
3001 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
3002 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
3003
3004 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
3005 returns early because it has nothing to do.
3006 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
3007
3008 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3009 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
3010 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
3011
3012 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3013 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
3014 (Use engine 'keyclient')
3015 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
3016
3017 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
3018 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
3019 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
3020 modules).
3021 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
3022
3023 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3024 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
3025 from 0.9.7.
3026 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
3027
3028 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3029 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
3030 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
3031 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
3032
3033 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
3034 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
3035 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
3036 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
3037
3038 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
3039 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
3040
3041 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
3042 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
3043 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
3044 [Bodo Moeller]
3045
3046 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
3047 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
3048 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
3049 become invalid.
3050 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
3051
3052 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
3053 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
3054 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
3055 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
3056 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
3057 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
3058 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
3059 [Bodo Moeller]
3060
3061 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
3062 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
3063 one of the SSL handshake functions.
3064 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
3065
3066 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
3067 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
3068 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
3069 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
3070 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
3071 the client will at least see that alert.
3072 [Bodo Moeller]
3073
3074 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
3075 correctly.
3076 [Bodo Moeller]
3077
3078 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
3079 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
3080 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
3081
3082 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
3083 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
3084 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
3085 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
3086 HelloRequest.
3087
3088 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
3089 before just sending a HelloRequest.
3090 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
3091
3092 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
3093 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
3094 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
3095 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
3096 may leak via logfiles.)
3097
3098 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
3099 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
3100 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
3101 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
3102 the legal range.
3103 [Bodo Moeller]
3104
3105 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
3106 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
3107 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3108
3109 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
3110 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
3111 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
3112 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
3113 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
3114 [Bodo Moeller]
3115
3116 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
3117 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
3118
3119 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
3120 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
3121 followed by modular reduction.
3122 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
3123
3124 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
3125 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
3126 [Bodo Moeller]
3127
3128 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
3129 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
3130 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
3131 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
3132 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3133
3134 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
3135 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3136
3137 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
3138 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
3139 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3140
3141 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
3142 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
3143 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
3144 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
3145 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
3146 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
3147 automatically.
3148 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
3149
3150 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
3151 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
3152 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
3153 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
3154 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
3155
3156 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
3157 [Andy Polyakov]
3158
3159 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
3160 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
3161 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
3162 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
3163 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
3164 to allow the necessary settings.
3165 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3166
3167 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
3168 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
3169 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
3170 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
3171 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3172
3173 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
3174 dh->length and always used
3175
3176 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
3177
3178 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
3179 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
3180 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
3181 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
3182 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
3183 dh->length.
3184
3185 So switch back to
3186
3187 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
3188
3189 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
3190 otherwise.
3191 [Bodo Moeller]
3192
3193 *) In
3194
3195 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
3196 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
3197 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
3198 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
3199
3200 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
3201 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
3202 always reject numbers >= n.
3203 [Bodo Moeller]
3204
3205 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
3206 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
3207 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
3208 variable) is not atomic.
3209 [Bodo Moeller]
3210
3211 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
3212 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
3213 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
3214 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
3215
3216 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
3217 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
3218
3219 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
3220 little-endian MIPS.
3221 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
3222
3223 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
3224 [Richard Levitte]
3225
3226 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
3227
3228 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
3229 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
3230 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
3231 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
3232 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
3233 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
3234 to traverse all of 'state'.
3235
3236 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
3237 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
3238 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
3239
3240 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
3241 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
3242
3243 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
3244 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
3245 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
3246 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
3247 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
3248 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
3249 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
3250 further strengthens the PRNG.
3251 [Bodo Moeller]
3252
3253 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
3254 [Andy Polyakov]
3255
3256 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
3257 an error message in this case.
3258 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3259
3260 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
3261 [Steve Henson]
3262
3263 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
3264 positive and less than q.
3265 [Bodo Moeller]
3266
3267 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
3268 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
3269 that itself.
3270 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
3271
3272 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
3273 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
3274 [Bodo Moeller]
3275
3276 *) Fix OAEP check.
3277 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
3278
3279 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
3280 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
3281 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
3282 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
3283 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
3284 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
3285 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
3286 paper.)
3287
3288 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
3289 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
3290 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
3291 detect the supposedly ignored error.
3292
3293 Both problems are now fixed.
3294 [Bodo Moeller]
3295
3296 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
3297 (previously it was 1024).
3298 [Bodo Moeller]
3299
3300 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
3301 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
3302 [Steve Henson]
3303
3304 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
3305 [Steve Henson]
3306
3307 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
3308 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
3309 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
3310 [Steve Henson]
3311
3312 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
3313 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
3314 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
3315 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
3316 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
3317 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
3318 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
3319 environment variables.
3320
3321 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
3322 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
3323 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
3324 [Bodo Moeller]
3325
3326 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
3327 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
3328 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
3329 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
3330 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
3331 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
3332 [Bodo Moeller]
3333
3334 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
3335 versions of 'test'.
3336 [Bodo Moeller]
3337
3338 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
3339
3340 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
3341 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
3342
3343 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
3344 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
3345 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
3346 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
3347 CygWin.
3348 [Richard Levitte]
3349
3350 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
3351 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
3352 amount of data available.
3353 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
3354 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3355
3356 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
3357 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
3358 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
3359 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
3360 [Bodo Moeller]
3361
3362 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
3363 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
3364 and UnixWare.
3365 [Richard Levitte]
3366
3367 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
3368 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
3369 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
3370 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
3371 [Ulf Moeller]
3372
3373 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
3374 [Andy Polyakov]
3375
3376 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
3377 [Richard Levitte]
3378
3379 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
3380 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
3381 [Steve Henson]
3382 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3383
3384 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
3385 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
3386 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
3387 (but broken) behaviour.
3388 [Steve Henson]
3389
3390 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
3391 it when found.
3392 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
3393
3394 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
3395 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
3396 [Bodo Moeller]
3397
3398 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
3399 did not exist.
3400 [Bodo Moeller]
3401
3402 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
3403 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
3404
3405 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
3406 [Richard Levitte]
3407
3408 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
3409 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
3410 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
3411
3412 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
3413 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
3414 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
3415 [Steve Henson]
3416
3417 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
3418 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
3419 [Ulf Moeller]
3420
3421 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
3422 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
3423
3424 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
3425
3426 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
3427
3428 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
3429 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
3430 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
3431 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
3432 [Bodo Moeller]
3433
3434 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
3435 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3436
3437 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
3438 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
3439 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
3440
3441 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
3442 was empty.
3443 [Steve Henson]
3444 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3445
3446 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
3447 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
3448 but the code is actually correct.
3449 [Steve Henson]
3450
3451 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
3452 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
3453 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
3454 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
3455 and leaves the highest bit random.
3456 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
3457
3458 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
3459 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
3460 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
3461 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
3462 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
3463 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
3464 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
3465 [Bodo Moeller]
3466
3467 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
3468 [Ulf Moeller]
3469
3470 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
3471 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
3472 [Steve Henson]
3473
3474 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
3475 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
3476 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
3477 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
3478 headers.
3479 [Richard Levitte]
3480
3481 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
3482 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
3483 and break the signature.
3484 [Steve Henson]
3485 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
3486
3487 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
3488 DH ciphersuites.
3489 [Steve Henson]
3490
3491 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
3492 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
3493 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
3494 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
3495 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
3496 [Bodo Moeller]
3497
3498 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
3499 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
3500
3501 *) ./config script fixes.
3502 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
3503
3504 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
3505 [Bodo Moeller]
3506
3507 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
3508 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
3509 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
3510 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
3511 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
3512
3513 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
3514 call failed, free the DSA structure.
3515 [Bodo Moeller]
3516
3517 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
3518 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
3519 [Steve Henson]
3520
3521 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
3522 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
3523 when writing a 32767 byte record.
3524 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
3525
3526 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
3527 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
3528
3529 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
3530 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
3531 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
3532 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
3533 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
3534
3535 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
3536 [Bodo Moeller]
3537
3538 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
3539 [Ulf Möller]
3540
3541 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
3542 [Ulf Möller]
3543
3544 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
3545 [Bodo Moeller]
3546
3547 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
3548 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
3549 [Bodo Moeller]
3550
3551 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
3552 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
3553 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
3554 result of the server certificate verification.)
3555 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3556
3557 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
3558 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
3559 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
3560 [Bodo Moeller]
3561
3562 *) Fix SSL_peek:
3563 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
3564 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
3565 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
3566 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
3567 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
3568 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
3569 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
3570 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
3571 [Bodo Moeller]
3572
3573 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
3574 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
3575 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
3576 happening the other way round.
3577 [Geoff Thorpe]
3578
3579 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
3580 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
3581 [Bodo Moeller]
3582
3583 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
3584 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
3585 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
3586 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
3587 [Richard Levitte]
3588
3589 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
3590 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
3591
3592 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
3593
3594 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
3595 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
3596 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
3597 that.
3598
3599 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
3600
3601 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
3602
3603 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
3604 static ones.
3605 [Richard Levitte]
3606
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00003607 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
3608
3609 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
3610 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
3611 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
3612 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
3613 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
3614
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00003615 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
3616 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
3617 matter what.
3618 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00003619
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00003620 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
3621 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3622
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00003623 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00003624
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00003625 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
3626 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
3627 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
3628 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
3629 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00003630 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00003631 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
3632 by the Finished messages.
3633 [Bodo Moeller]
3634
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00003635 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
3636 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
3637
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00003638 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
3639 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
3640 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
3641 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
3642 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
3643 appropriately.
3644 [Steve Henson]
3645
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00003646 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
3647 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
3648 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
3649 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
3650 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
3651 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
3652 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
3653 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
3654 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
3655 together.
3656 [Steve Henson]
3657
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00003658 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
3659 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
3660 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
3661 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
3662
3663 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
3664 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
3665 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
3666 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
3667 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
3668 the answer.
3669
3670 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
3671 been tested well enough.
3672 [Richard Levitte]
3673
Bodo Möllerfe035192000-09-19 23:25:00 +00003674 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00003675 it can return incorrect results.
Bodo Möllercb1fbf82000-09-19 23:06:14 +00003676 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
3677 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00003678 [Bodo Moeller]
3679
Dr. Stephen Henson730e37e2000-09-18 12:30:57 +00003680 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
3681 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
3682 include zero length content when signing messages.
3683 [Steve Henson]
3684
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00003685 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
3686 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00003687 [Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00003688
Richard Levitte0e05f542000-09-15 21:22:50 +00003689 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
3690 [Richard Levitte]
3691
Ulf Möller1d84fd62000-09-14 18:37:53 +00003692 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
3693 wrong sign.
3694 [Ulf Möller]
3695
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00003696 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
3697 packages. The default package contains applications, application
3698 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
3699 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
3700 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
3701 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
3702 [Richard Levitte]
3703
Richard Levittecc995262000-09-14 13:11:56 +00003704 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
3705 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
3706
Richard Levitte72660f52000-09-14 12:48:48 +00003707 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
3708 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
3709
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00003710 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
3711 random number < q in the DSA library.
Ulf Möller523d7782000-09-13 02:01:35 +00003712 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00003713
Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00003714 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
3715 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
3716 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
3717 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
3718 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
3719 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
3720 just makes things more complicated.)
3721 [Bodo Moeller]
3722
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00003723 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
3724 from EGD.
3725 [Ben Laurie]
3726
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +00003727 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
3728 work better on such systems.
3729 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
3730
Dr. Stephen Henson84b65342000-09-07 23:14:26 +00003731 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
3732 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
3733 keyid to the certificates aux info.
3734 [Steve Henson]
3735
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +00003736 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
3737 if there was more than one signature.
3738 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
3739
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +00003740 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
3741 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
3742 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
3743 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
3744 [Richard Levitte]
3745
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003746 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
3747 rather than always using the current time.
3748 [Steve Henson]
3749
3750 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
3751 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
3752 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
3753 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
3754 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
3755 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003756
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003757 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
3758 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003759
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003760 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003761
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003762 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
3763 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
3764 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
3765 the same hash value.
3766
3767 As a result various functions (which were all internal
3768 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
3769 structure. This will break anything that messed round
3770 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003771
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003772 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
3773 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003774
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003775 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
3776 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
3777 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
3778 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
3779 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
3780 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
3781 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003782
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00003783 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
3784
3785 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
3786 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
3787 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
3788 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
3789 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
3790 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
3791 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
3792 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
3793
3794 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
3795 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3796
3797 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
3798 to customise the verify behaviour.
3799 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00003800
Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00003801 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
3802 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
3803 [Steve Henson]
3804
3805 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
3806 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
3807 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
3808 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
3809 request is improperly encoded.
3810 [Steve Henson]
3811
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00003812 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
3813 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
3814 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00003815
3816 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.

3818
Bodo Möllerbbb8de02000-09-04 15:34:43 +00003819 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
3820 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
3821 words set to zero.)
3822 [Bodo Moeller]
3823
3824 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
3825 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
3826 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
3827 [Bodo Moeller]
3828
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +00003829 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
3830 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
3831 BIO/fp routines also added.
3832 [Steve Henson]
3833
Bodo Möllera545c6f2000-09-01 09:54:25 +00003834 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.

3836
Ben Laurie7049ef52000-08-30 18:14:28 +00003837 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
3838 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
3839 demos/state_machine.
3840 [Ben Laurie]
3841
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00003842 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
3843 generation and verification.
3844 [Steve Henson]
3845
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00003846 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
3847 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
3848 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
3849 encode and decode it manually.
3850 [Steve Henson]
3851
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00003852 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c

3854 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
3855
3856 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
3857 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
3858 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
3859 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
3860
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00003861 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
3862 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
3863 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
3864 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
3865 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
3866 [Steve Henson]
3867
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00003868 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
3869 [Richard Levitte]
3870
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00003871 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
3872 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
3873 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
3874
3875 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
3876 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
3877 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
3878 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
3879 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
3880 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
3881 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
3882 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
3883
3884 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
3885 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
3886
3887 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
3888
3889 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
3890 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
3891 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE

3893 [Richard Levitte]
3894
Richard Levitte368f8552000-08-17 10:25:46 +00003895 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
3896 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
3897 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
3898 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.

Richard Levitte88364bc2000-08-11 19:43:20 +00003904 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
3905 [Richard Levitte]
3906
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00003907 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
3908 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
3909 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
3910 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
3911 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
3912 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
3913 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
3914 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
3915 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
3916 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
3917 short or long names are found.
3918 [Steve Henson]
3919
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00003920 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.

Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00003923 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
3924 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
3925 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
3926 version rollback attacks was not effective.
3927
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00003928 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
3929 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
3930 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
3931 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
3932 [Bodo Moeller]
3933
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00003934 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
3935 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
3936 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
3937 [Richard Levitte]
3938
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00003939 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
3940 these print out strings and name structures based on various
3941 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
3942 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
3943 to allow the various flags to be set.
3944 [Steve Henson]
3945
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00003946 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
3947 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
3948 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
3949 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
3950 dates to be checked.
3951 [Steve Henson]
3952
3953 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
3954 negative public key encodings) on by default,
3955 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
3956 [Steve Henson]
3957
3958 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
3959 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
3960 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
3961 [Steve Henson]
3962
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +00003963 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
3964 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
3965 [Bodo Moeller]
3966
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +00003967 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
3968 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
3969 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
3970 are always statically linked for now, but there are
3971 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
Richard Levitte6bc847e2001-08-10 15:26:21 +00003972 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.

3978 [Ulf Möller]
3979
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd13f0e2000-07-12 23:55:30 +00003980 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
3981 DSA key.
3982 [Steve Henson]
3983
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00003984 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
3985 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
3986 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
3987 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
3988 form signing output easier to verify.
3989 [Steve Henson]
3990
3991 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
3992 [Steve Henson]
3993
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00003994 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
3995 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
3996 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
3997 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
3998 are needed because all other string types have virtually
3999 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
4000 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
4001 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
4002 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
4003 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
4004 [Steve Henson]
4005
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00004006 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
4007
4008 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
4009 the syntax given in objects.README.
4010 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
4011 obj_mac.h.
4012 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
4013 obj_mac.h.
4014
4015 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
4016 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
4017 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
4018 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
4019 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
4020 consistent name changes.
4021 [Richard Levitte]
4022
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00004023 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
4024 [Bodo Moeller]
4025
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00004026 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00004027 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
4028 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or

4031
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00004032 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
4033 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
4034 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
4035 of safestack.h .
4036 [Steve Henson]
4037
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00004038 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
4039 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
4040 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
4041 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
4042 [Steve Henson]
4043
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00004044 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
4045 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
4046 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
4047 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
4048 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
4049 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
4050 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
4051 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
4052 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00004053 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
4054 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.

4056
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00004057 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
4058 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
4059 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
4060 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
4061 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
4062 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
4063 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
4064 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
4065 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified

Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00004069 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
4070 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
4071 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
4072 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
4073
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00004074 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
4075 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
4076 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
4077 omit any duplicate addresses.
4078 [Steve Henson]
4079
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00004080 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
4081 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
4082 [Bodo Moeller]
4083
4084 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
4085 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
4086 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
4087 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
4088 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
4089 [Bodo Moeller]
4090
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00004091 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
4092 software:
4093 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
4094 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
4095 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
4096 Free => OPENSSL_free
4097 [Richard Levitte]
4098
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00004099 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
4100 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
Bodo Möller6dad7bd2000-06-07 21:29:25 +00004101 [Bodo Moeller]
4102
Ulf Möllerbe5d92e2000-06-03 23:23:10 +00004103 *) CygWin32 support.

4105
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00004106 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
4107 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
4108 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
4109 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
4110 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
4111 approach.
4112 [Geoff Thorpe]
4113
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00004114 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
4115 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
4116 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
4117 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
4118 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
4119 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
4120 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
4121 [Geoff Thorpe]
4122
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00004123 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
4124 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
4125 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
4126 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
4127 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
4128 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
4129 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
4130 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
4131 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
4132 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
4133 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
4134 [Bodo Moeller]
4135
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00004136 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
4137 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
4138 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
4139 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
4140 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
4141
4142 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
4143 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
4144 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
4145 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
4146 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
4147
4148 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
4149 ciphers.
4150
4151 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00004152 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
4153 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
4154 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
4155
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00004156 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
4157
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00004158 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
4159 of macros.
4160
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00004161 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
4162 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
4163 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
4164 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00004165
4166 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
4167 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
4168 any installed hardware versions can.
Dr. Stephen Henson7f060602000-05-26 23:51:35 +00004169 [Steve Henson]
4170
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00004171 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
4172 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
4173 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
4174 number.
4175 [Bodo Moeller]
4176
4177 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
4178 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
4179 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
4180 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
4181 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
4182
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4b41f42000-05-24 13:09:59 +00004183 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
4184 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
4185 [Steve Henson]
4186
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00004187 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
4188 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
4189 [Richard Levitte]
4190
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00004191 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
4192 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
4193 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
4194 features.
4195 [Steve Henson]
4196
Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00004197 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.

Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00004199
Dr. Stephen Henson0cb957a2000-05-04 23:03:49 +00004200 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
4201 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
4202 but no ssl client purpose.
4203 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
4204
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00004205 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
4206 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
4207 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
4208 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
4209 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
4210 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
4211 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
4212 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
4213 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
4214 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
4215 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
4216 [Steve Henson]
4217
Bodo Möller316e6a62000-05-02 20:29:03 +00004218 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
4219 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
4220 be obtained from the error queue.
4221 [Bodo Moeller]
4222
Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00004223 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
4224 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
4225 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
4226 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
4227 [Bodo Moeller]
4228
Ulf Möller39736282000-04-27 15:06:26 +00004229 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
4230 [Ulf Möller]
4231
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00004232 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
4233 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
4234 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
4235 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
4236 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
4237 [Geoff Thorpe]
4238
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00004239 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
4240 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
4241 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
4242 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
4243 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
4244 [Geoff Thorpe]
4245
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00004246 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
4247 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
4248 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
4249 may not be NULL.

4251
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00004252 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
4253 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
4254 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
4255 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
4256 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
4257 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
4258 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
4259 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
4260 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
4261 or "the configuration storage API"...
4262
4263 The new configuration file reading functions are:
4264
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00004265 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
4266 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre

Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00004270 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00004271
4272 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
4273 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
4274 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
4275 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
4276 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
4277 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
4278 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
4279
4280 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
4281 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
4282 [Richard Levitte]
4283
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00004284 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
4285 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
4286 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
4287 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
4288 [Bodo Moeller]
4289
Geoff Thorpe6ef4d9d2000-04-04 22:49:27 +00004290 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and

4296
4297 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
Bodo Möller865874f2000-02-28 18:03:16 +00004298
Bodo Möllercf194c12000-03-30 08:12:35 +00004299 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
4300 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
4301
Bodo Möller3bc90f22000-03-27 18:10:08 +00004302 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
4303 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
4304 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili

4306
Dr. Stephen Hensonb475baf2000-03-27 00:53:27 +00004307 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
4308 was larger than the MD block size.
4309 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
4310
Dr. Stephen Hensone77066e2000-03-22 13:50:23 +00004311 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
4312 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
4313 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
4314 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
4315 components.
4316 [Steve Henson]
4317
Ulf Möller7af48162000-03-19 02:06:37 +00004318 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.

4325
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00004326 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
4327 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00004328 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00004329 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00004330 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
4331 Additional arguments are always ignored.
4332
4333 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
4334 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.

4341 [Bodo Moeller]
4342
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00004343 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
4344 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
4345 its own key.
4346 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
4347 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
4348 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
4349 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
4350 [Bodo Moeller]
4351
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00004352 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
4353 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
4354 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
4355 does not suppress any output.
4356 [Richard Levitte]
4357
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00004358 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00004359 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
4360 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
4361 with all the associated security issues.
4362
4363 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
4364 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
4365 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
4366 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
4367 use the value in the default purpose.
4368 [Steve Henson]
4369
Dr. Stephen Henson48fe0ee2000-03-07 01:03:33 +00004370 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
4371 and fix a memory leak.
4372 [Steve Henson]
4373
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00004374 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
4375 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
4376 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
4377 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
4378 [Bodo Moeller]
4379
Bodo Möller0a150c52000-03-04 01:36:53 +00004380 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
4381 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
4382 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
4383 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
4384 [Bodo Moeller]
4385
Bodo Möller41918452000-03-03 22:18:19 +00004386 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
4387 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
4388 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
4389 [Bodo Moeller]
4390
4391 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
4392 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
4393 [Bodo Moeller]
4394
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00004395 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
4396 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
4397 which was free.
4398 [Steve Henson]
4399
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00004400 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
4401 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
4402 [Bodo Moeller]
4403
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00004404 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
4405 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
4406 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.

4408
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00004409 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
4410 number generation fails.
4411 [Bodo Moeller]
4412
Bodo Möller55f7d652000-03-01 07:57:25 +00004413 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
4414 [Bodo Moeller]
4415
Ralf S. Engelschall010712f2000-02-29 15:29:02 +00004416 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64

4418
Ulf Möller2da0c112000-02-28 19:16:41 +00004419 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.

4421
Ulf Möllera4709b32000-02-28 19:14:46 +00004422 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).

Richard Levitte74cdf6f2000-02-28 11:59:02 +00004428 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00004429
Dr. Stephen Henson82b93182000-02-28 14:11:19 +00004430 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
4431 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
4432 [Steve Henson]
4433
Dr. Stephen Henson587bb0e2000-02-27 17:34:30 +00004434 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
4435 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
4436
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00004437 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
Andy Polyakova5770be2000-02-27 02:34:37 +00004438 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00004439 [Ulf Möller]
4440
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00004441 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
4442 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
4443 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
4444 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
4445 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
4446 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
4447
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00004448 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
4449 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
4450 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
4451 for example.
4452 [Steve Henson]
4453
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00004454 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
4455 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
4456 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
4457 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
4458 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
4459 counter, some don't.)
4460 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
4461 counters or duplicate objects.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc7cb16a2000-02-26 01:55:33 +00004462 [Steve Henson]
4463
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00004464 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
4465 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
4466 [Steve Henson]
4467
Ulf Möller505b5a02000-02-24 22:57:42 +00004468 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
4469 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
4470 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
4471
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00004472 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
4473 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
4474 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
4475 or -rand.
4476 [Ulf Möller]
4477
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00004478 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
4479 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
4480 [Steve Henson]
4481
4482 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
4483 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
4484 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
4485 cipher list.
4486 [Steve Henson]
4487
Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00004488 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
4489 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
4490 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
4491 [Steve Henson]
4492
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00004493 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
4494 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
4495 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
4496 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
4497 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
4498 should work without changes.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00004499 [Richard Levitte]
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00004500
4501 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
4502 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
4503 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
4504 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
4505 must be defined. E.g.,
4506 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
4507 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
4508 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
Ulf Möllercdf20e02000-02-23 21:57:22 +00004509 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00004510
Bodo Möllerb35e9052000-02-20 23:04:06 +00004511 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
4512 record layer.
4513 [Bodo Moeller]
4514
Dr. Stephen Hensond754b382000-02-20 18:27:23 +00004515 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
4516 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
4517 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
4518 [Steve Henson]
4519
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00004520 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
4521 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
4522 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
4523 request header lines. Some software needs this.
4524 [Steve Henson]
4525
Dr. Stephen Hensona3fe3822000-02-16 23:16:01 +00004526 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
4527 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
4528 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
4529 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
4530 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
4531 is prompted for as usual.
4532 [Steve Henson]
4533
Ben Lauriebd03b992000-02-16 22:15:39 +00004534 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
4535 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
4536 autodetect the card and use it if present.
4537 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
4538
Dr. Stephen Hensonde469ef2000-02-15 14:19:44 +00004539 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
4540 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
4541 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
4542 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
4543 [Steve Henson]
4544
Andy Polyakovbcba6cc2000-02-12 23:33:01 +00004545 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
4546 [Andy Polyakov]
4547
Dr. Stephen Hensond13e4eb2000-02-12 03:03:04 +00004548 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
4549 of seed file.
4550 [Steve Henson]
4551
Bodo Möller3ebf0be2000-02-11 17:18:50 +00004552 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
Bodo Möllerbb325c72000-02-10 21:50:52 +00004553 [Bodo Moeller]
4554
Dr. Stephen Hensonf07fb9b2000-02-08 01:34:59 +00004555 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
4556 [Steve Henson]
4557
Ulf Möllercae55bf2000-02-06 15:56:59 +00004558 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
4559 bits.
4560 [Ulf Möller]
4561
4562 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
4563 [Ulf Möller]
4564
Andy Polyakov0fad6cb2000-02-06 11:15:20 +00004565 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
4566 [Andy Polyakov]
4567
Ulf Möller4a6222d2000-02-06 00:25:39 +00004568 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
4569 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
4570 [Ulf Möller]
4571
Dr. Stephen Henson66430202000-02-05 21:07:56 +00004572 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
4573 options to produce them.
4574 [Steve Henson]
4575
Ulf Möller9b141122000-02-05 14:17:32 +00004576 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
4577 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
4578 [Ulf Möller]
4579
4580 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
4581 for p == 0.
4582 [Ulf Möller]
4583
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00004584 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
4585 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
4586 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
4587 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
4588 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
4589 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
4590 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
4591 [Steve Henson]
4592
Dr. Stephen Henson82fc1d92000-02-03 02:56:48 +00004593 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
4594 [Steve Henson]
4595
Bodo Möllere74231e2000-02-02 21:20:44 +00004596 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
4597 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
4598 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
4599 [Bodo Moeller]
4600
Bodo Möller2c5fe5b2000-02-01 07:50:42 +00004601 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
Ulf Möller8efb6012000-02-01 02:21:16 +00004602 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
4603
Ulf Möller98d0b2e2000-01-30 23:34:33 +00004604 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
4605 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
4606 [Ulf Möller]
4607
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004608 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
4609 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
4610 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
4611 has already seen).
4612 [Bodo Moeller]
4613
4614 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
4615 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
4616
4617 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
4618 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
4619 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
4620 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
4621 generation becomes much faster.
4622
4623 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00004624 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
4625 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
4626 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
4627 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
4628 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
4629 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
4630 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
4631 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
4632 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004633 [Bodo Moeller]
4634
Bodo Möller7865b872000-01-30 02:40:38 +00004635 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004636 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
4637 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
4638 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00004639 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
4640 trial division stage.

Dr. Stephen Hensone1314b52000-01-29 00:00:26 +00004643 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
4644 as ASN1_TIME.
4645 [Steve Henson]
4646
Dr. Stephen Henson90644dd2000-01-28 01:35:31 +00004647 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
4648 [Steve Henson]
4649
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00004650 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().

Ulf Möllere93f9a32000-01-27 01:50:42 +00004653 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
4654 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
4655 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
4656 the comments.
4657 [Ulf Möller]
4658
Bodo Möller2557eae2000-01-24 17:57:56 +00004659 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that

4662 [Bodo Moeller]
4663
Bodo Möllera46faa22000-01-24 16:02:29 +00004664 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained

Dr. Stephen Hensonfabce042000-01-23 02:28:08 +00004696 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
4697 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
4698 wrong.
4699
4700 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
4701 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
4702 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
4703
4704 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
4705 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
4706 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
4707 an error is flagged.
4708
4709 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
4710 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
4711 the readability was also increased :-)

Dr. Stephen Henson81004902000-01-21 02:42:14 +00004714 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
4715 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This

4723 [Steve Henson]
4724
Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00004725 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
4726 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
4727 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
4728 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
4729 instead.
4730
4731 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
4732 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
4733 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
4734 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
Dr. Stephen Henson6e6bc352000-01-20 01:37:17 +00004735 because they handle more complex structures.)

4740 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.

Ulf Möllereb952082000-01-13 20:59:17 +00004743 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00004744 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
4745 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00004746 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00004747 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
4748 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
4749 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).

Bodo Möller76aa0dd2000-01-12 11:57:30 +00004752 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
4753 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004754 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
Ulf Möller4486d0c2000-01-22 20:05:23 +00004755 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00004756 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.

4758
Bodo Möller3cc6cde2000-01-11 08:09:27 +00004759 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
Bodo Möllerc51ae172000-01-11 01:07:26 +00004760 [Bodo Moeller]
4761
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00004762 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
4763 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
Dr. Stephen Henson25f923d2000-01-09 14:21:40 +00004764 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
4765 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
4766 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
4767 to use this.
4768
4769 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
4770 code.
4771 [Steve Henson]
4772
Dr. Stephen Hensondad666f2000-01-08 03:16:04 +00004773 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
4774 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
4775 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
4776 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
4777 [Steve Henson]
4778
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004779 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
4780 [Ulf Möller]
4781
Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00004782 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
4783 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
4784 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
4785 international characters are used.
4786
4787 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
4788 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
4789 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
4790 in ASN1 order.
4791 [Steve Henson]
4792
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00004793 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
4794 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
4795 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
4796 request.
4797
4798 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
4799 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
4800 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
4801 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004802 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00004803 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
4804
4805 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
4806 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
4807 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004808 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00004809
4810 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
4811 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
4812 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
4813 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
4814 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
4815 types at all.
4816 [Steve Henson]
4817
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00004818 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
4819 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
4820 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
4821 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
4822 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
4823
4824 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
4825 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
4826 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
4827 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.

4829
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00004830 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
4831 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00004832 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00004833 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
4834 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
4835 SHA1.
4836 [Andy Polyakov]
4837
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00004838 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
4839 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
4840 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
4841 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
4842 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
4843 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
4844 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
4845 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
4846
4847 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
4848 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00004849 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00004850 [Steve Henson]
4851
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00004852 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
4853 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
4854 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
4855 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
4856 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
4857 support to pkcs8 application.
4858 [Steve Henson]
4859
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00004860 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
4861 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
4862 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
4863 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
4864 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
4865 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
4866 [Bodo Moeller]
4867
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00004868 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
4869 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
4870 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
4871 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
4872 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
4873 consistency.
4874 [Bodo Moeller]
4875
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00004876 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
4877 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
4878 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
4879 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
4880 example.
4881 [Steve Henson]
4882
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00004883 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
4884 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
4885 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
4886 and any application specific purposes.
4887
4888 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
4889 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
4890 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
4891 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00004892 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00004893 if the certificate is self signed.
4894 [Steve Henson]
4895
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00004896 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
4897 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
4898 [Steve Henson]
4899
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00004900 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
4901 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00004902 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00004903 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
4904 [Steve Henson]
4905
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00004906 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
4907 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
4908 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
4909 Update documentation.
4910 [Steve Henson]
4911
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00004912 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
4913 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00004914 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00004915 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
4916 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
4917 [Steve Henson]
4918
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00004919 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
4920 for details.

4922
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00004923 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
4924 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
4925 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00004926 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
4927 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
4928 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00004929 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
4930 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
4931 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
4932 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00004933
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00004934 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
4935
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00004936 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
4937 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
4938 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
4939 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
4940 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00004941
4942 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
4943 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00004944 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
4945 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
4946 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
4947 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
4948 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
4949 request additional information:
4950 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
4951 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00004952
4953 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
4954 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
4955 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
4956 options.
4957
4958 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
4959 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
4960
4961 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
4962 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
4963 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
4964
4965 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.

Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00004967
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00004968 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
4969 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
4970 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
4971 algorithm.
4972 [Steve Henson]
4973
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00004974 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
4975 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
4976 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
4977
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00004978 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
4979 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
4980 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
4981 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
4982 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
4983 included in OpenSSL.
4984 [Steve Henson]
4985
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00004986 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
4987 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
4988 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
4989 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
4990 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
4991 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
4992 [Bodo Moeller]
4993
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00004994 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
4995 PKCS12 structure.
4996 [Steve Henson]
4997
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00004998 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
4999 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
5000 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
5001 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
5002 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
5003 structure.
5004 [Steve Henson]
5005
5006 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
5007 need initialising.
5008 [Steve Henson]
5009
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00005010 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
5011 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
5012 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
5013 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
5014 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
5015 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
5016 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
5017 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
5018 be maintained manually.
5019
5020 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
5021 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
5022 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
5023 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
5024 work because people forget to call this function]
5025 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
5026 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
5027 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
5028 [Steve Henson]
5029
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00005030 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
5031 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
5032 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
5033 should be discouraged from doing it.
5034 [Ben Laurie]
5035
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00005036 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
5037 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
5038 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
5039 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
5040 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
5041 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
5042 [Steve Henson]
5043
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00005044 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
5045 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
5046 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00005047
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00005048 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00005049 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
5050 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00005051
5052 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
5053 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
5054 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
5055 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
5056 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
5057 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00005058
5059 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
5060 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
5061 verify structure is likely to change more often now.

Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00005063 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
5064 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
5065 and vice versa.
5066
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00005067 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
5068 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
5069 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
5070 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.

5073 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00005074 [Steve Henson]
5075
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00005076 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
5077 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
5078 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
5079 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
5080 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00005081 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00005082 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
5083 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
5084 keys so we should be OK.
5085
5086 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
5087 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
5088 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
5089 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
5090 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
5091 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00005092 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00005093
5094 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
5095 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
5096 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
5097
5098 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00005099 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
5100 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
5101 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
5102 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
5103 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
5104 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00005105 [Steve Henson]
5106
5107 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
5108 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
5109 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
5110 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
5111 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
5112 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
5113 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
5114 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
5115 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
5116 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
5117 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
5118 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
5119 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
5120 [Steve Henson]
5121
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00005122 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
5123 [Steve Henson]
5124
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00005125 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
5126 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
5127 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
5128 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
5129 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
5130 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
5131 single self signed certificate. This means that:
5132 openssl verify ss.pem
5133 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
5134 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
5135 is OK.
5136 [Steve Henson]
5137
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00005138 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
5139 (and add it to external session representation).
5140 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
5141 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
5142 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
5143 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
5144 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
5145 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
5146 security holes.

5148
Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00005149 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
5150 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
5151 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.

5155 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
5156 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
5157 [Steve Henson]
5158
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00005159 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
5160 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
5161 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust

5164
Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00005165 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments

5168
Dr. Stephen Henson06556a11999-11-14 23:10:50 +00005169 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
5170 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
5171 certificate auxiliary information.
5172 [Steve Henson]
5173
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00005174 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document

5176 [Steve Henson]
5177
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00005178 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
5179 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00005180 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
5181 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
5182 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
5183 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
5184 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.

5186
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00005187 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
Dr. Stephen Henson954ef7e1999-11-12 01:42:25 +00005188 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
5189 [Steve Henson]
5190
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00005191 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
5192 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
5193 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
5194 manpages and fix a few bugs.
5195 [Steve Henson]
5196
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00005197 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
5198 [Steve Henson]
5199
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00005200 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
5201 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
5202 [Steve Henson]
5203
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00005204 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
5205 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
5206 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
5207 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
5208 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00005209 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00005210 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
5211 using the new 'x509' options.
5212
5213 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
5214 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
5215 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
5216 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
5217 for all purposes.
5218 [Steve Henson]
5219
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00005220 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
5221 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
5222 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
5223 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
5224 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
Mark J. Coxce2c95b1999-11-03 14:10:10 +00005225 [Mark Cox]
5226
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00005227 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
5228 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
5229 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
5230 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
5231 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00005232 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00005233 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
5234 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
5235 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
5236 the key length and effective key length are equal.
5237 [Steve Henson]
5238
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00005239 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
5240 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
5241 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
5242 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
5243 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
5244 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
5245 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
5246 [Steve Henson]
5247
5248 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
5249 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
5250 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
5251 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
5252 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
5253 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
5254 openssl.cnf for more info.
5255 [Steve Henson]
5256
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00005257 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00005258 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00005259 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
5260 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
5261 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
5262 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
5263 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
5264 md should be large enough anyway.
5265 [Bodo Moeller]
5266
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00005267 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
5268 for handling the random seed file.
5269
5270 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
5271 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00005272 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00005273 s_client,
5274 s_server,
5275 x509 (when signing).
5276 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
5277 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00005278 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00005279
5280 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00005281 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00005282 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00005283 that support '-rand'.

5285
5286 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
5287 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
5288 [Bodo Moeller]
5289
5290 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
5291 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
5292 [Bill Perry]
5293
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00005294 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
5295 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
5296 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
5297 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
5298 is suitable.
5299 [Steve Henson]
5300
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00005301 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
5302 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
5303 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
5304 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
5305 [Steve Henson]
5306
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00005307 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
5308 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
5309 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
5310 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
5311 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
5312 print out all the purposes.
5313 [Steve Henson]
5314
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00005315 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
5316 functions.
5317 [Steve Henson]
5318
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00005319 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
5320 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
5321 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
5322 single function call.
5323 [Steve Henson]
5324
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00005325 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC

5327 [Andy Polyakov]
5328
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00005329 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced

5331 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
5332 [Steve Henson]
5333
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00005334 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
5335 when producing the local key id.
5336 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5337
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00005338 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
5339 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
5340 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
5341 "server.pem".
5342 [Steve Henson]
5343
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00005344 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
5345 a public key to be input or output. For example:
5346 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
5347 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
5348 [Steve Henson]
5349
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00005350 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
5351 in the message. This was handled by allowing
5352 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
5353 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
5354
5355 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
5356 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
5357 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
5358 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5359
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00005360 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
5361 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
5362 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
5363 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
5364 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
5365 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
5366 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
5367 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
5368 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
5369 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
5370 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
5371 trivial: move one line.
5372 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
5373
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00005374 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
5375 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
5376 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
5377 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
5378 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
5379 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
5380 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
5381 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
5382 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
5383 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
5384 with an event loop for example.
5385 [Steve Henson]
5386
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00005387 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
5388 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
5389 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
5390 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
5391 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
5392 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
5393 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
5394 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
5395 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
5396 [Steve Henson]
5397
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00005398 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
5399 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
5400 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00005401 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00005402 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
5403 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
5404 [Steve Henson]
5405
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00005406 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
5407 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
5408 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
5409 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
5410
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00005411 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
5412 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
5413 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
5414 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
5415 key generation.
5416 [Steve Henson]
5417
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00005418 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
Bodo Möller6f7af151999-09-10 14:03:21 +00005419 (still largely untested)
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00005420 [Bodo Moeller]
5421
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00005422 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
5423 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
5424 [Steve Henson]
5425
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00005426 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
5427 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
5428 [Steve Henson]
5429
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00005430 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
5431 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
5432 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
5433 [Bodo Moeller]
5434
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00005435 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
5436 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
5437 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
5438 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
5439 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
5440 [Steve Henson]
5441
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00005442 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
5443 [Andy Polyakov]
5444
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00005445 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
5446 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
5447 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
5448 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
5449 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
5450 in ca.
5451 [Steve Henson]
5452
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00005453 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
5454 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
5455 1.OU="Unit name 1"
5456 2.OU="Unit name 2"
5457 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
5458 [Steve Henson]
5459
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00005460 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
5461 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
5462 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
5463 are otherwise ignored at present.
5464 [Steve Henson]
5465
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00005466 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00005467 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00005468 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
5469 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
5470 copied until the next read.
5471 [Steve Henson]
5472
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00005473 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
5474 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
5475 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
5476 [Steve Henson]
5477
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00005478 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
5479 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
5480 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
5481 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
5482 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
5483 associated functions.
5484 [Steve Henson]
5485
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00005486 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
5487 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
5488 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
5489 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
5490 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
5491 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
5492 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
5493 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
5494 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00005495 memory BIOs.
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00005496 [Steve Henson]
5497
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00005498 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
5499 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
5500 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
5501 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
5502 [Bodo Moeller]
5503
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00005504 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
5505 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
5506 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
5507 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
5508 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
5509 functionality.
5510 [Steve Henson]
5511
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00005512 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
5513 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
5514 under Win32.
5515 [Steve Henson]
5516
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00005517 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00005518 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
5519 extensions to be obtained and added.
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00005520 [Steve Henson]
5521
Bodo Möller1b1a6e71999-08-09 13:01:48 +00005522 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
5523 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
5524 [Bodo Moeller]
5525
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00005526 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
Ralf S. Engelschalldfbaf951999-08-08 19:12:26 +00005527
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00005528 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
Ralf S. Engelschalldfbaf951999-08-08 19:12:26 +00005529 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00005530
Ralf S. Engelschall96395151999-08-08 10:15:43 +00005531 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
5532 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
5533
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00005534 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
5535 program.
5536 [Steve Henson]
5537
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00005538 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
5539 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
5540 DH parameters contain its length).
5541
5542 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
5543 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
5544 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
5545 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
5546 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
5547 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
5548 utter importance to use
5549 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
5550 or
5551 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
5552 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
5553 attacks may become possible!
5554 [Bodo Moeller]
5555
5556 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
5557 [Bodo Moeller]
5558
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00005559 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
5560 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
5561 [Steve Henson]
5562
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00005563 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
5564 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
5565 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
5566 or long name.
5567 [Steve Henson]
5568
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00005569 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
5570 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
5571 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
5572 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00005573 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
5574 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
5575 private key operations.
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00005576 [Steve Henson]
5577
Andy Polyakova0618e31999-07-25 15:13:49 +00005578 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
5579 [Andy Polyakov]
5580
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00005581 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
5582 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
5583 to
5584 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
5585 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
5586 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
5587 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
5588 the password callback is called.
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00005589 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00005590
5591 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
5592
5593 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
5594 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
5595 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
5596 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
5597 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
5598 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
5599 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00005600
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00005601 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
5602 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
5603 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00005604 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
Bodo Möller57119941999-07-29 12:57:23 +00005605 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
5606 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).

5608
Andy Polyakov73634551999-07-20 15:50:20 +00005609 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
5610 [Andy Polyakov]
5611
Ulf Möller64344501999-07-16 00:50:45 +00005612 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
5613 delete an unused file.
5614 [Ulf Möller]
5615
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00005616 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
5617 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
5618 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
5619 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
5620 [Steve Henson]
5621
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00005622 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
5623 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
5624 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
5625 of an error.
5626 [Bodo Moeller]
5627
Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00005628 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
5629 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
5630 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
5631
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00005632 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
5633 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
5634 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
5635 comparison" warnings.
5636 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00005637 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00005638
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5139391999-07-11 12:40:46 +00005639 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
5640 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
5641 derived keys are printed to stderr.
5642 [Steve Henson]
5643
Dr. Stephen Henson0ab8beb1999-07-11 12:30:55 +00005644 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
5645 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
5646
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00005647 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
5648 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
5649
5650 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
5651 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
5652 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
5653
5654 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
5655 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
5656 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
5657 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
5658 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
5659 this bug.
5660 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
5661
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00005662 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
5663 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00005664 Applications can use
5665 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
5666 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
5667 "off" is now the default.
5668 The library internally uses
5669 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
5670 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
5671 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
5672
5673 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
5674 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00005675
5676 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
5677 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
5678 than just having a counter.
Bodo Möllere3911161999-07-19 10:36:10 +00005679
5680 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
5681
5682 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
5683 extensions.

5685
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00005686 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
5687 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
5688 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00005689 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00005690
5691 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when

Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00005715 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
5716 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
5717 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
5718 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
5719 point to the end.

5722
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00005723 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
5724 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
5725 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
5726 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
5727 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
5728 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
5729 [Steve Henson]
5730
Dr. Stephen Hensondbd665c1999-06-22 01:38:31 +00005731 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
5732 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
5733 necessary function names.
5734 [Steve Henson]
5735
Bodo Möllerf76a8081999-06-21 11:32:25 +00005736 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00005737 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
Bodo Möller975d3dc1999-07-09 13:02:14 +00005738 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
Bodo Möller6888f2b1999-07-09 12:01:40 +00005739 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
Bodo Möllerf76a8081999-06-21 11:32:25 +00005740 [Bodo Moeller]
5741
Dr. Stephen Henson8623f691999-06-20 17:36:11 +00005742 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
5743 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
5744 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
5745 [Steve Henson]
5746
Bodo Möllera1113061999-06-18 16:14:18 +00005747 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
5748 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
5749 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
Bodo Möller11af1a21999-06-18 18:22:38 +00005750 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
5751 such programs?)
5752 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
5753 need locks.

5755
Bodo Möller95d29591999-06-12 01:03:40 +00005756 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
5757 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
5758 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
5759 [Bodo Moeller]
5760
5761 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
5762 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
5763 appropriate.
5764 [Bodo Moeller]
5765
Dr. Stephen Henson9bce3071999-06-11 22:30:45 +00005766 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
5767 for the encoded length.
5768 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
5769
Dr. Stephen Henson565d1061999-06-11 01:58:42 +00005770 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
5771 [Steve Henson]
5772
Dr. Stephen Hensonb7d135b1999-06-10 17:32:52 +00005773 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
5774 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
5775 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
5776 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
5777 [Steve Henson]
5778
Ralf S. Engelschall9d9b5591999-06-10 08:13:52 +00005779 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
5780 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
5781 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5782
Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00005783 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
5784 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
5785 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
5786 unusual formatting.
5787 [Steve Henson]
5788
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00005789 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
5790 to use the new extension code.
5791 [Steve Henson]
5792
5793 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
5794 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
5795 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
5796 constant.
5797 [Steve Henson]
5798
Bodo Möller8151f521999-06-09 13:29:51 +00005799 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
5800 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
5801 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.

5809 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
5810 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.

Ben Laurie233bf731999-06-09 10:19:53 +00005813 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
5814 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
5815 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
5816 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
5817 [Ben Laurie]
5818
Ulf Möller908eb7b1999-06-08 16:35:11 +00005819 *) DES library cleanups.
5820 [Ulf Möller]
5821
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00005822 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
5823 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
5824 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
5825 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
5826 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
5827 of v2.0.
5828 [Steve Henson]
5829
Bodo Möllerd4443ed1999-06-07 13:34:25 +00005830 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
5831 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00005834 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
5835 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
5836 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
5837 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
5838 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
5839 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
5840 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
5841 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
5842 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
5843 [Steve Henson]
5844
Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00005845 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00005846 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
5847 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
5848 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
5849 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
5850 value doesn't matter.

5852
Ben Laurie84c15db1999-06-04 22:23:10 +00005853 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't

Ulf Möllera53955d1999-06-04 21:35:58 +00005862 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
5863 [Ulf Möller]
5864
5865 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
5866 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.

Ulf Möllere14d4441999-05-20 01:43:07 +00005914 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
5915 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
5916 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5917
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00005918 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
5919 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
5920 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
5921 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
5922 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
5923 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
5924 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
5925 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
5926 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
5927 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
5928 [Steve Henson]
5929
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00005930 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
5931 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
5932 [Steve Henson]
5933
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00005934 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00005935 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00005936 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
5937 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
5938 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
5939
5940 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
5941 [Bodo Moeller]
5942
Dr. Stephen Henson84fa7041999-05-16 00:25:36 +00005943 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
5944 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
5945 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
5946 [Steve Henson]
5947
Ben Laurie62bad771999-05-15 15:59:28 +00005948 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
5949 [Ben Laurie]
5950
Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00005951 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
5952 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
5953 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
5954 key elements as negative integers.
5955 [Steve Henson]
5956
Ulf Möllerbd3576d1999-05-13 13:16:42 +00005957 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.

5961 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
5962
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5eac851999-05-12 01:56:27 +00005963 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
5964 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
5965 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
5966 [Steve Henson]
5967
Bodo Möllerb31b04d1999-05-11 07:43:16 +00005968 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
5969 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
5970 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
5971 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
5972 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
5973 [Bodo Moeller]
5974
Ulf Möllerd5a2ea41999-05-10 23:59:28 +00005975 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.

5977
Ralf S. Engelschall397f7031999-05-10 08:33:56 +00005978 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall

5980 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
5981 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5982
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00005983 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
5984 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
5985 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
5986
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00005987 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
5988 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
5989 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
5990 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
5991 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
5992 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
5993 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
5994 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
5995 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
5996
5997 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
5998 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
5999 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
6000 does not influence s as it used to.
6001
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00006002 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00006003 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
6004 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
6005 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
6006 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
6007 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

6009
Dr. Stephen Hensonc8b41851999-05-09 16:39:11 +00006010 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
6011 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
6012 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
6013 key type.
6014 [Steve Henson]
6015
Dr. Stephen Hensone40b7ab1999-05-08 12:59:50 +00006016 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
6017 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
6018 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
6019 and 'x509').
6020 [Steve Henson]
6021
6022 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
6023 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
6024 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
6025 extension option.
6026 [Steve Henson]
6027
Ben Laurie5b640021999-05-07 15:42:23 +00006028 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,

Ulf Möllerafd1f9e1999-05-04 11:52:26 +00006044 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
6045 [Ulf Möller]
6046
6047 *) Update HPUX configuration.
6048 [Anonymous]
6049
Ralf S. Engelschalldee75ec1999-05-04 10:15:02 +00006050 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
6051 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6052
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00006053 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
6054 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
6055 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
6056 DER-encoded.)
6057 [Bodo Moeller]
6058
Bodo Möller7f897141999-05-01 03:20:40 +00006059 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
6060 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
6061 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
6062 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
6063 now it really counts the depth.
6064 [Bodo Moeller]
6065
Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00006066 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
6067 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
6068 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
6069 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
6070 didn't match the private key).
6071
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00006072 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
Bodo Möllerdd1462f1999-05-01 00:07:42 +00006073 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
6074 connection using the SSL_CTX).

6079
Bodo Möllere5f30451999-04-29 21:52:08 +00006080 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
6081 David Harris.
6082 [Bodo Moeller]
6083
Bodo Möller87bc2c01999-04-29 16:10:41 +00006084 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
6085 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
6086 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
6087 [Bodo Moeller]
6088
Bodo Möller6e6acfd1999-04-28 22:33:54 +00006089 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
6090 [Bodo Moeller]
6091
Bodo Möllerddeee821999-04-28 22:06:19 +00006092 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to

6094 such as /usr/local/bin.
6095 [Bodo Moeller]
6096
Ulf Möller09739101999-04-28 16:16:31 +00006097 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.

Ulf Möllerf5d7a031999-04-27 01:14:46 +00006100 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
6101 [Ulf Möller]
6102
Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00006103 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
6104 extension adding in x509 utility.
6105 [Steve Henson]
6106
Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00006107 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
6108 [Ulf Möller]
6109
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00006110 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
6111 prototypes.
6112 [Steve Henson]
6113
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00006114 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.

Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00006116
Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00006117 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
6118 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
6119 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
6120 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
6121 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
6122 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
6123 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
6124 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00006125 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
6126 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

6131
Bodo Möller85f48f71999-04-22 14:28:38 +00006132 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
6133 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
6134 [Bodo Moeller]
6135
Bodo Möller90b8bbb1999-04-22 13:38:03 +00006136 *) Fix some race conditions.
6137 [Bodo Moeller]
6138
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00006139 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate

6141 [Steve Henson]
6142
Ulf Möller8e10f2b1999-04-21 17:31:05 +00006143 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.

6145
Ben Laurie49971381999-04-21 13:24:58 +00006146 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of

6172
Dr. Stephen Henson3edd7ed1999-04-19 17:55:11 +00006173 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.

6179 [Ben Laurie]
6180
Dr. Stephen Hensonc83e5231999-04-17 23:55:39 +00006181 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE

6191 [Steve Henson]
6192
Dr. Stephen Henson28a98801999-04-14 23:44:41 +00006193 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to

6202 [Steve Henson]

Ralf S. Engelschall9263e881999-05-04 10:27:10 +00006215
Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00006216 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
6217 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
6218 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
6219 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
6220 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
6221 [Ben Laurie]
6222
Ralf S. Engelschallf9a25931999-04-12 11:45:14 +00006223 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
6224 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
6225 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
6226 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.

6228
Ralf S. Engelschall2f0cd191999-04-12 10:36:16 +00006229 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
6230 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
6231 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
6232 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6233
Ralf S. Engelschall268c2101999-04-12 09:59:05 +00006234 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
6235 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a

6237 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6238
Bodo Möllerfc8ee061999-04-11 02:49:35 +00006239 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
6240 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
6241 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
6242 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
6243 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
6244 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
6245 [Bodo Moeller]
6246
Bodo Möllerc7ac31e1999-04-09 20:54:25 +00006247 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
6248 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
6249 [Bodo Moeller]
6250
Ulf Möller9d892e21999-04-09 17:04:32 +00006251 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to

6260 [Steve Henson]
6261
Ulf Möller99aab161999-04-01 12:34:33 +00006262 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
6263 [Ulf Möller]
6264
Ulf Möller2613c1f1999-03-31 12:38:27 +00006265 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
6266 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
6267 [Ulf Möller]
6268
Bodo Möller6d02d8e1999-03-31 12:06:30 +00006269 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
6270 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
6271 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
6272 [Bodo Moeller]

6275 [Bodo Moeller]
6276
Dr. Stephen Hensonee0508d1999-03-29 17:50:26 +00006277 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl

6279 [Steve Henson]
6280
Dr. Stephen Henson8d8c7261999-03-28 23:17:34 +00006281 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and

6284 [Steve Henson]
6285
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcefcb1999-03-28 17:46:10 +00006286 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and

6288 codes along the way.
6289 [Steve Henson]
6290
Dr. Stephen Henson4b518c21999-03-28 01:00:56 +00006291 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to

6340
Ben Laurie29c0fcc1999-03-12 20:26:27 +00006341 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
6342 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
6343 if someone would make that last step automatic.

6347 [Ben Laurie]
6348
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00006349 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
6350 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
6351 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
6352 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
6353 [Steve Henson]
6354
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00006355 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
6356 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
6357 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
6358 [Steve Henson]
6359
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00006360 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
6361 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
6362 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
6363 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
6364 installed as `perl').

6383 [Steve Henson]
6384
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00006385 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
6386 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
6387 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported

6398
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00006399 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
6400 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
6401 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
6402 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
6403 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
6404 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
6405 openssl_bio.xs.

Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +00006421
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +00006422 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
6423 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
6424 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
6425 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
6426 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
6427 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
6428 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
6429 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
6430 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
6431 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.

Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +00006434 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
6435 [Ben Laurie]
6436
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +00006437 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
6438 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
6439 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
6440 for linking it into DSOs.
6441 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6442

6448 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
6449 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
6450 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
6451 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
6452 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6453
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +00006454 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
6455 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
6456 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
6457 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
6458 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
6459 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
6460 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6461
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +00006462 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
6463 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
6464 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
6465 encryption.
6466 [Ben Laurie]
6467
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +00006468 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
6469 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
6470 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
6471 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
6472 [Steve Henson]
6473
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +00006474 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
6475 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
6476 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
6477 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
6478 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
6479 field as blank.

6497 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
6498 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
6499 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
6500 [Steve Henson]
6501
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +00006502 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
6503 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
6504 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
6505 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
6506 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +00006507 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
6508 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.

Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +00006520 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
6521 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
6522 [Steve Henson]
6523
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +00006524 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
6525 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
6526 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
6527 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
6528 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
6529 (e.g. s_server).
6530 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
6531 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
6532 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
6533 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
6534 no way to reconfigure them.
6535 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
6536 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
6537 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
6538 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
6539 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.

6541
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +00006542 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature

6546
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +00006547 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
6548 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
6549 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
6550 already masked variable.

6557 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
6558 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

6563 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6564
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +00006565 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
6566 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
6567 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
6568 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
6569 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
6570 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
6571 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
6572 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
6573 now, too.
6574 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6575
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +00006576 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested

6610
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +00006611 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
6612 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
6613 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
6614 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
6615 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure

Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +00006667 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
6668 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
6669 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
6670 vectors if you have them.
6671 [Ben Laurie]
6672
Ralf S. Engelschall2c6ccde1999-03-06 14:01:29 +00006673 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
Ben Laurie436d3181999-02-13 12:39:50 +00006674 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
6675 [Ben Laurie]
6676
Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00006677 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
6678 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
6679 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
6680 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
6681 If you do a:
6682 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
6683 it will update them.

Dr. Stephen Henson55a9cc61999-02-11 01:39:30 +00006685
Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +00006686 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
6687 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
6688 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
6689 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
6690 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
6691 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
6692 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
6693 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6694
Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +00006695 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
6696 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
6697 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
6698 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
6699 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
6700 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
6701 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
6702 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
6703 the crypto/md/ stuff).
6704 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6705
Dr. Stephen Henson175b0941999-02-10 01:12:59 +00006706 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
6707 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
6708 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
6709 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
6710 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
6711 [Steve Henson]
6712
Dr. Stephen Hensonbceacf91999-02-09 01:29:37 +00006713 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
6714 INTEGER code.
6715 [Steve Henson]
6716
Mark J. Cox351d8991999-01-31 12:14:39 +00006717 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
6718 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
6719
Ralf S. Engelschallb621d771999-01-31 11:10:10 +00006720 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
6721 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
6722
Ben Lauriea96e7811999-01-30 17:53:00 +00006723 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
6724 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
6725 [Ben Laurie]
6726
Ralf S. Engelschalle04a6c21999-01-30 11:50:48 +00006727 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
6728 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
6729
Ralf S. Engelschall0172f981999-01-30 11:36:05 +00006730 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
6731 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
Dr. Stephen Henson79dfa971999-01-29 23:34:19 +00006732
6733 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
6734 [Steve Henson]
Ralf S. Engelschall320a14c1998-12-23 12:09:47 +00006735
Dr. Stephen Henson9fe84291999-01-29 01:53:55 +00006736 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
6737 few typos.
6738 [Steve Henson]
6739
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +00006740 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
6741 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
6742 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
6743 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
6744
Dr. Stephen Henson92c046c1999-01-28 00:16:44 +00006745 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
6746 [Steve Henson]
6747
Dr. Stephen Henson79dfa971999-01-29 23:34:19 +00006748 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
6749 [Steve Henson]
6750
Dr. Stephen Hensona27598b1999-01-26 23:13:14 +00006751 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
6752 [Steve Henson]
6753
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2347661999-01-26 01:19:27 +00006754 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
6755 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
6756 [Steve Henson]
6757
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00006758 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
6759 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
6760 CA extensions.
6761 [Steve Henson]
6762
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00006763 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
6764 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +00006765 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson834eeef1999-01-24 17:50:32 +00006766
Dr. Stephen Henson9aeaf1b1999-01-24 00:50:01 +00006767 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
6768 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
6769 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
6770 [Steve Henson]
6771
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +00006772 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
6773 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
6774 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
6775 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
6776 properly to be processed.
6777 [Steve Henson]
6778
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +00006779 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
6780 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
6781 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
6782 [Ben Laurie]
6783
Ben Laurieb13a1551999-01-19 19:18:20 +00006784 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
6785 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
6786
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00006787 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
6788 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
6789 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
6790 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
6791 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
6792 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
6793 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
6794 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
6795 or delete all the .err files.

Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +00006797
Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +00006798 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
6799 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
6800 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
6801 to regenerate it if needed.
6802 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
6803 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
6804
6805 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
6806 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
6807
Dr. Stephen Hensonfdd3b641999-01-17 15:10:33 +00006808 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
6809 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
6810 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
6811 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
6812 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
6813 [Steve Henson]
6814
Ben Lauriedabba111999-01-17 14:20:20 +00006815 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
6816 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
6817
Ben Laurie512d2221999-01-17 14:14:41 +00006818 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
6819 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
6820
Ben Laurie2c1ef381999-01-17 14:10:08 +00006821 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
6822 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
6823 error, but didn't set one).
6824 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
6825
Ben Lauriec3ae9a41999-01-16 18:46:23 +00006826 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
6827 [Ben Laurie]
6828
Dr. Stephen Hensonee13f9b1999-01-14 18:25:07 +00006829 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
6830 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
6831 [Steve Henson]
6832
Dr. Stephen Henson27eb6221999-01-14 18:21:57 +00006833 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
6834 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
6835
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +00006836 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
6837 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
6838 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
6839 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
6840 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
6841 OID is not part of the table.
6842 [Steve Henson]
6843
Ben Lauriea6801a91999-01-10 20:36:02 +00006844 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
6845 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
6846 [Ben Laurie]
6847
Ben Laurie50acf461999-01-09 19:15:59 +00006848 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
6849 [Ben Laurie]
6850
Dr. Stephen Henson7f9b7b01999-01-09 17:29:34 +00006851 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
6852 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
6853 was "1234").
6854 [Steve Henson]
6855
Ben Lauriee03ddfa1999-01-07 19:15:59 +00006856 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.

6858
Ben Laurie6fa89f91999-01-07 00:37:01 +00006859 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
6860 NULL pointers.
6861 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
6862
Ben Lauriec13d4791999-01-07 00:16:37 +00006863 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.

6868
Ben Laurie5b001151999-01-06 23:18:08 +00006869 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
6870 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
6871
Ben Laurief8c3c051999-01-06 22:53:34 +00006872 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
6873 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
6874 [Ben Laurie]
6875
Dr. Stephen Hensonad65ce71999-01-06 01:39:24 +00006876 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
6877 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().

6891
Ralf S. Engelschallcb0f35d1999-01-03 15:31:11 +00006892 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
6893 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
6894 unused in the certificate verification process.
6895 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6896
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcf6451999-01-03 01:08:33 +00006897 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
Dr. Stephen Hensonad65ce71999-01-06 01:39:24 +00006898 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.

6900
Ben Lauriecdbb8c21999-01-02 19:04:27 +00006901 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
6902 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
6903 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
6904
Ralf S. Engelschall06d5b161999-01-02 12:59:33 +00006905 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
6906 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
6907 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
6908 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.

Dr. Stephen Hensonc35f5491999-01-02 01:53:06 +00006911 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
6912 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
6913 [Steve Henson]
6914
Dr. Stephen Hensonebc828c1999-01-01 18:43:44 +00006915 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.

6931 [Ben Laurie]
6932
stephen792a9001998-12-31 01:35:07 +00006933 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
6934 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
6935 other error libraries.
6936 [Steve Henson]
6937
6938 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
6939 [Steve Henson]
6940
6941 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
6942 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
6943 be read in.
6944 [Steve Henson]
6945
Ralf S. Engelschallce72df11998-12-30 23:07:32 +00006946 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
6947 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
6948 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
6949 the new set of documenation files.
6950 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6951
Ben Laurie4098e891998-12-29 21:43:55 +00006952 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
6953 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
6954 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
