Bodo Moeller7d3ba882013-09-17 10:06:34 +02005 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
Rob Stradling785da0e2013-09-12 22:12:21 +01006
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9b6c0b2014-03-12 14:16:19 +00007 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
8 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
9 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
10 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
11
12 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
13 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
14 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
15
Dr. Stephen Hensona4339ea2014-01-03 22:38:03 +000016 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
17 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
18 [Steve Henson]
19
Dr. Stephen Henson5e3ff622013-03-22 17:12:33 +000020 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
21
22 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
23 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7d1c2013-09-08 15:07:44 +010024
Dr. Stephen Henson5fdeb582013-10-22 05:37:43 +010025 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
26 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7d1c2013-09-08 15:07:44 +010027
Dr. Stephen Henson5e3ff622013-03-22 17:12:33 +000028 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
29 effect.

31 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7d1c2013-09-08 15:07:44 +010032
Dr. Stephen Henson5e3ff622013-03-22 17:12:33 +000033 [Steve Henson]
34
Scott Deboy36086182013-06-18 14:34:38 -070035 *) Add callbacks supporting generation and retrieval of supplemental
36 data entries.
37 [Scott Deboy <sdeboy@apache.org>, Trevor Perrin and Ben Laurie]
38
Dr. Stephen Henson97cf1f62013-07-17 14:05:19 +010039 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
40 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
41 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
42 algorithms and include tests cases.
43 [Steve Henson]
44
Dr. Stephen Henson5c84d2f2013-06-21 23:35:02 +010045 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
46 enveloped data.
47 [Steve Henson]
48
Dr. Stephen Henson271fef02013-05-21 23:55:50 +010049 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
50 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
51 [Steve Henson]
52
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6913ee2013-04-06 15:50:12 +010053 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
54 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
55 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
56 [Steve Henson]
57
Ben Lauriefefc1112012-12-11 16:05:14 +000058 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
59 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
60
Dr. Stephen Henson1c455bc2012-11-19 15:12:07 +000061 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
62 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
63 [Steve Henson]
64
Dr. Stephen Hensona98b8ce2011-11-06 12:53:13 +000065 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
66 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
67 failures.
68 [Steve Henson]
69
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4324e52011-11-05 01:34:36 +000070 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
71 sign or verify all in one operation.
72 [Steve Henson]
73
Dr. Stephen Henson3ec9dce2011-11-02 00:57:22 +000074 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
75 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
76 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4324e52011-11-05 01:34:36 +000077 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson3ec9dce2011-11-02 00:57:22 +000078
Dr. Stephen Henson5e4eb992011-10-19 22:34:53 +000079 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
80 [Steve Henson]
81
Dr. Stephen Henson2bfeb7d2011-09-29 23:08:23 +000082 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
83 [Steve Henson]
84
Dr. Stephen Henson4420b3b2011-09-21 17:04:56 +000085 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
Dr. Stephen Hensoncb718702011-09-22 14:01:25 +000086 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
87 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
Dr. Stephen Henson4420b3b2011-09-21 17:04:56 +000088 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
89 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
90 [Steve Henson]
91
Dr. Stephen Henson15094852011-09-14 13:25:48 +000092 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
93 based on NID.
94 [Steve Henson]
95
Dr. Stephen Hensona11f06b2011-09-12 18:47:39 +000096 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
97 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
98 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
99 [Steve Henson]
100
Dr. Stephen Henson7fdcb452011-09-09 17:16:43 +0000101 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
102 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
103 [Steve Henson]
104
Dr. Stephen Hensonf55f5f72011-08-26 14:51:49 +0000105 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
106 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
107
Dr. Stephen Henson7fdcb452011-09-09 17:16:43 +0000108 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
109 POST to handle HMAC cases.
Dr. Stephen Henson20f12e62011-08-08 22:07:38 +0000110 [Steve Henson]
111
Dr. Stephen Henson01a9a752011-07-04 23:38:16 +0000112 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
Jeff Walton3d7bf772013-06-05 07:46:49 -0400113 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
Dr. Stephen Henson01a9a752011-07-04 23:38:16 +0000114 [Steve Henson]
115
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2fd5982011-05-11 14:43:38 +0000116 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
Jeff Walton3d7bf772013-06-05 07:46:49 -0400117 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2fd5982011-05-11 14:43:38 +0000118 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
119 [Steve Henson]
120
Dr. Stephen Hensone0d1a2f2011-04-23 20:05:19 +0000121 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
Jeff Walton3d7bf772013-06-05 07:46:49 -0400122 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
Dr. Stephen Hensone0d1a2f2011-04-23 20:05:19 +0000123 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
124 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
125 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
126 requested amount of entropy.
127 [Steve Henson]
128
Dr. Stephen Hensoncac4fb52011-04-23 19:55:55 +0000129 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
130 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
131 [Steve Henson]
132
Dr. Stephen Hensonb5dd1782011-04-18 22:48:40 +0000133 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
134 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
135 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
136 support.
Dr. Stephen Henson23916812011-04-18 14:25:11 +0000137 [Steve Henson]
138
Dr. Stephen Hensonac892b72011-04-14 11:15:10 +0000139 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
140 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
141 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
142 [Steve Henson]
143
Dr. Stephen Henson06b7e5a2011-04-15 02:49:30 +0000144 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
145 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
146 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
147 will never use XTS mode.
Dr. Stephen Henson32a2d8d2011-04-12 23:21:33 +0000148 [Steve Henson]
149
Dr. Stephen Henson05e24c82011-04-05 15:24:10 +0000150 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
151 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
152 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
153 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
154 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
Dr. Stephen Hensond7a3ce92011-04-06 23:41:19 +0000155 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
Dr. Stephen Henson05e24c82011-04-05 15:24:10 +0000156 [Steve Henson]
157
Dr. Stephen Hensoncab05952011-04-05 12:42:31 +0000158 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
159 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
160 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
161 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
162 [Steve Henson]
163
Dr. Stephen Henson96ec46f2011-03-17 16:55:24 +0000164 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
165 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
166 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
167 [Steve Henson]
168
Dr. Stephen Henson8857b382011-03-09 23:44:06 +0000169 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
170 [Steve Henson]
171
Dr. Stephen Henson11e80de2011-03-08 19:10:17 +0000172 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
173 [Steve Henson]
174
175 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
176 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
177 [Steve Henson]
178
Dr. Stephen Henson591cbfa2011-03-04 18:00:21 +0000179 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
180 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
181 [Steve Henson]
182
Dr. Stephen Hensoneead69f2011-02-21 14:07:15 +0000183 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
184 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
185 [Steve Henson]
186
Dr. Stephen Henson017bc572011-02-16 14:49:50 +0000187 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
188 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
Dr. Stephen Henson5d439d62011-02-17 19:03:52 +0000189 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
190 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
191 and rename any affected symbols.
Dr. Stephen Henson017bc572011-02-16 14:49:50 +0000192 [Steve Henson]
193
Dr. Stephen Henson25c65422011-02-15 16:03:47 +0000194 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
195 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
196 [Steve Henson]
197
Dr. Stephen Hensonfe26d062011-02-14 17:14:55 +0000198 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
199 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
Dr. Stephen Henson25c65422011-02-15 16:03:47 +0000200 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonfe26d062011-02-14 17:14:55 +0000201 [Steve Henson]
202
Dr. Stephen Hensonb3310162011-02-12 17:23:32 +0000203 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
204 [Steve Henson]
205
Dr. Stephen Henson30b56222011-02-11 19:02:34 +0000206 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
207 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
208 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
209 [Steve Henson]
210
Dr. Stephen Hensonb3d80222011-02-09 16:21:43 +0000211 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
212 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
213 [Steve Henson]
214
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdaa5412011-02-07 18:16:33 +0000215 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
216 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
217 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
218 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
219 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
220 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
221 set before the key.
222 [Steve Henson]
223
Dr. Stephen Henson3da0ca72011-02-07 14:36:08 +0000224 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
225 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
226 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
227 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
228 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
229 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
230 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
Dr. Stephen Hensond45087c2011-02-07 18:04:27 +0000231 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
Dr. Stephen Henson3da0ca72011-02-07 14:36:08 +0000232 [Steve Henson]
233
Dr. Stephen Henson2b3936e2010-12-25 20:45:59 +0000234 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
235 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
236 [Steve Henson]
237
Bodo Möller7c2d4fe2010-08-26 15:15:47 +0000238 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
239
240 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
241 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
242
243 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
244 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
245 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
246 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
247 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
248 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
249
250 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
251 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
252 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
253 security.
254 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
255
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000256 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
257 parameters by name.
258 [Steve Henson]
259
260 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
261 Add CMAC pkey methods.
262 [Steve Henson]
263
Bodo Möller8b37d332011-10-13 13:20:33 +0000264 *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000265 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
266 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
267 [Steve Henson]
268
269 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
270 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
271 multi-process servers.
272 [Steve Henson]
273
274 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
275 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
276 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
277 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
278 RAND_METHOD structure.
279 [Steve Henson]
280
281 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
282 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
283 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
284 whose return value is often ignored.
285 [Steve Henson]
Andy Polyakovf2ad3582012-04-25 22:06:32 +0000286
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200287 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
288
Dr. Stephen Henson20b82b52013-12-20 15:26:50 +0000289 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
290 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
291 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
292 [Steve Henson]
293
Dr. Stephen Henson4fcdd662013-12-12 03:21:06 +0000294 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-02
295
296 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
297 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
298 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
299 is at least 512 bytes long.
300
301 To enable it use an unused extension number (for example chrome uses
302 35655) using:
303
304 e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_padding=35655
305
306 Since the extension is ignored the actual number doesn't matter as long
307 as it doesn't clash with any existing extension.
308
309 This will be updated when the extension gets an official number.
310
311 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
312
Dr. Stephen Henson94c2f772013-09-18 00:50:15 +0100313 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
314 structure.
315 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
316
Bodo Moeller7d3ba882013-09-17 10:06:34 +0200317 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
318 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
319 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
320 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
321 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
322 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
323 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
324
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200325 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
326 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
327 [Steve Henson]
328
329 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
330 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
331 summary of the connection parameters.
332 [Steve Henson]
333
334 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
335 of connection parameters.
336 [Steve Henson]
337
338 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
339 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
340
341 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
342 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
343 [Steve Henson]
344
345 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
346 [Steve Henson]
347
348 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
349 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
350 [Steve Henson]
351
352 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
353 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
354 [Steve Henson]
355
356 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
357 certificates.
358 [Steve Henson]
359
360 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
361 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
362 CRLs using the OCSP API.
363 [Steve Henson]
364
365 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
366 [Steve Henson]
367
368 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
369 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
370 [Steve Henson]
371
372 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
373 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
374 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
375 tracing.
376 [Steve Henson]
377
378 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
379 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
380 [Steve Henson]
381
382 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
383 OID NID.
384 [Steve Henson]
385
386 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
387 client to OpenSSL.
388 [Steve Henson]
389
390 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
391 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
392 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
393 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
394 [Steve Henson]
395
396 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
397 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
398 [Steve Henson]
399
400 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
401 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
402 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
403 comparison.
404 [Steve Henson]
405
406 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
407 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
408 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
409 use the certificate.
410 [Steve Henson]
411
412 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
413 [Steve Henson]
414
415 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
416 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
417 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
418 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
419 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
420 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
421 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
422
423 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
424 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
425
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
429 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
430 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
431 [Steve Henson]
432
433 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
434 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
435 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
436 supported signature algorithms.
437 [Steve Henson]
438
439 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
440 [Steve Henson]
441
442 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
443 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
444 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
445 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
446 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
447 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
448 certificate and specify the whole chain.
449 [Steve Henson]
450
451 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
452 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
453 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
454 to have similar checks in it.
455
456 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
457 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
458 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
459 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
460 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
461 [Steve Henson]
462
463 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
464 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
465 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
466 shared signature algorithms.
467 [Steve Henson]
468
469 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
470 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
471 to support them.
472 [Steve Henson]
473
474 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
475 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
476 it couldn't be removed.
477 [Steve Henson]
478
479 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
480 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
481 [Steve Henson]
482
483 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
484 functions. Add manual page.
485 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
486
487 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
488 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
489 a certificate.
490 [Steve Henson]
491
492 *) Fix OCSP checking.
493 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
494
Bodo Moellercdf84b72013-09-17 09:48:23 +0200495 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
496 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
497 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
498 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
499 utility) or reject.
500 [Steve Henson]
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200501
502 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
503 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
504 [Steve Henson]
Andy Polyakov0e1f3902012-08-29 14:14:05 +0000505
Andy Polyakovb8c59292012-09-19 20:58:07 +0000506 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
507 platform support for Linux and Android.
508 [Andy Polyakov]
509
Andy Polyakov0e1f3902012-08-29 14:14:05 +0000510 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
511 [Andy Polyakov]
512
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200513 *) RFC 5878 (TLS Authorization Extensions) support.
Andy Polyakov0e1f3902012-08-29 14:14:05 +0000514 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
515
516 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
517 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
518 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
519 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200520 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
Andy Polyakov0e1f3902012-08-29 14:14:05 +0000521 [Steve Henson]
522
523 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
524 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
525 the new parameter format automatically.
526 [Steve Henson]
527
528 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
529 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
530 [Steve Henson]
531
532 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
533 [Steve Henson]
534
535 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
536 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
537 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
538 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
539 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
540 [Steve Henson]
541
542 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
543 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
544 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
545 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
546 to set list of supported curves.
547 [Steve Henson]
548
549 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
550 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
551 to print out received values.
552 [Steve Henson]
553
554 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
555 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
556 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
557 [Steve Henson]
558
559 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
560 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
561 [Steve Henson]
562
563 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
564 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
565 [Steve Henson]
566
567 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
568 certificates.
569 [Steve Henson]
570
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200571 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]

Andy Polyakov396f8b72012-04-26 07:20:06 +0000640 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
Dr. Stephen Henson43d5b4f2012-04-25 23:04:42 +0000641 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
642 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200643 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
Andy Polyakov396f8b72012-04-26 07:20:06 +0000644 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
Dr. Stephen Henson43d5b4f2012-04-25 23:04:42 +0000645 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
646 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
Andy Polyakov396f8b72012-04-26 07:20:06 +0000647 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
648 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
649 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
Dr. Stephen Henson43d5b4f2012-04-25 23:04:42 +0000650 [Steve Henson]
651
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200652 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
Andy Polyakovf2ad3582012-04-25 22:06:32 +0000653 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
654 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
655 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
656 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
Andy Polyakova2b21192012-04-26 07:33:26 +0000657 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to

Dr. Stephen Henson800e1cd2012-04-17 15:12:09 +0000675 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200676 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
677
Dr. Stephen Henson800e1cd2012-04-17 15:12:09 +0000678 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
679 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
680 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200681 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
Dr. Stephen Henson800e1cd2012-04-17 15:12:09 +0000682 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
683 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
684 Most broken servers should now work.
685 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable

Dr. Stephen Henson83cb7c42012-02-15 14:04:00 +0000698 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
699 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
700 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
701 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
702 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
703 [Steve Henson]
704
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4e11692012-02-09 15:42:10 +0000705 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate

Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200707 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
Dr. Stephen Hensonf4e11692012-02-09 15:42:10 +0000708 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy

Bodo Möller3e00b4c2011-10-18 19:43:16 +0000748 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
749 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
750 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
Bodo Möllere0d61322011-10-19 08:59:53 +0000751 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
752 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
Bodo Möller3e00b4c2011-10-18 19:43:16 +0000753
Bodo Möllere0d61322011-10-19 08:59:53 +0000754 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
755 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
756 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
Bodo Möller3e00b4c2011-10-18 19:43:16 +0000757
758 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
759 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
760 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
761
762 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
763 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
764 implementations).

766
Bodo Möller3ddc06f2011-10-13 13:05:58 +0000767 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
768 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
769 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
770 [Steve Henson]
771
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe449442010-03-14 12:55:15 +0000772 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
Dr. Stephen Henson4c623cd2010-03-14 12:54:45 +0000773 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe449442010-03-14 12:55:15 +0000774 particular PSS.
Dr. Stephen Henson4c623cd2010-03-14 12:54:45 +0000775 [Steve Henson]
776
Dr. Stephen Hensonf26cf992010-03-11 14:19:46 +0000777 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
Dr. Stephen Henson17c63d12010-03-11 14:06:46 +0000778 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
779 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
780 [Steve Henson]
781
Dr. Stephen Henson85522a02010-03-11 13:32:38 +0000782 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
783 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
784 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
785 the appropriate parameters.
786 [Steve Henson]
787
Dr. Stephen Henson31904ec2010-03-08 18:10:35 +0000788 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
789 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
790 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
791 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
792 against a number of sample certificates.
793 [Steve Henson]
794
795 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
Dr. Stephen Hensonff04bbe2010-03-06 19:55:25 +0000796 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
Dr. Stephen Hensonfa1ba582010-03-06 18:05:05 +0000797
Dr. Stephen Hensonff04bbe2010-03-06 19:55:25 +0000798 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
799 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
800
801 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
802 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
803 parameters r, s.

805
Dr. Stephen Hensonccbb9ba2011-10-09 23:11:55 +0000806 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
807 RFC3211.
Dr. Stephen Hensond2a53c22009-11-26 18:57:39 +0000808 [Steve Henson]
809
Dr. Stephen Henson3d63b392009-11-25 22:01:06 +0000810 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
811 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
812 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
813 password based CMS).

815
Bodo Möllerc519e892011-09-05 13:36:23 +0000816 *) Session-handling fixes:
817 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
818 but also support Session Tickets.
819 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
820 presented a ticket with an expired session.
821 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
822 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
823 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.

825
Bodo Möller612fcfb2011-09-05 13:31:17 +0000826 *) Fix PSK session representation.
827 [Bodo Moeller]
828
Bodo Mölleracb4ab32011-09-05 09:30:50 +0000829 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
Andy Polyakovc6081712011-08-23 20:51:38 +0000830
831 This work was sponsored by Intel.
832 [Andy Polyakov]
833
Bodo Mölleracb4ab32011-09-05 09:30:50 +0000834 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
835 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
836 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200837 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
Bodo Mölleracb4ab32011-09-05 09:30:50 +0000838 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
839 [Steve Henson]
840
841 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
842 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
843 [Steve Henson]
844
845 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
846 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
847 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
848 [Steve Henson]
849
850 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +0200851 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
852 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
853 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
Bodo Mölleracb4ab32011-09-05 09:30:50 +0000854 [Steve Henson]
855
Bodo Möllere66cb362011-06-15 14:49:17 +0000856 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
857 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
858 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
859 [Steve Henson]
860
Bodo Möller8e855452012-01-05 13:48:55 +0000861 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
862 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
Bodo Möllere66cb362011-06-15 14:49:17 +0000863
864 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
865 [Steve Henson]
866
867 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
868 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
869 [Steve Henson]
870
871 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
872 [Steve Henson]
873
874 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
875 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
876 [Steve Henson]
877
878 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
879 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
880 [Steve Henson]
881
882 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
883 [Steve Henson]
884
885 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
886 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
887 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
888 [Steve Henson]
889
890 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
891 [Steve Henson]
892
893 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
894 [Steve Henson]
895
896 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
897 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
898 [Steve Henson]
899
900 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
901 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
902 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
903 [Steve Henson]
904
905 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
906 [Steve Henson]
907
908 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
909 and enable MD5.
910 [Steve Henson]
911
912 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
913 FIPS modules versions.
914 [Steve Henson]
915
916 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
917 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
918 until after the certificate request message is received.
919 [Steve Henson]
920
921 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
922 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
923 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
924 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
925 [Steve Henson]
926
927 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
928 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
929 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
930 support yet and no support for client certificates.
931 [Steve Henson]
932
933 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
934 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
935 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
936 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
937 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
938 and version checking.
939 [Steve Henson]
940
941 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
942 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
943 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
944 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
945 [Steve Henson]
946
947 *) Add SRP support.
948 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]

Dr. Stephen Hensonf830c682010-11-24 16:08:20 +0000950 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
951 [Steve Henson]
952
Dr. Stephen Henson44959ee2010-08-26 14:23:52 +0000953 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
954 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
955 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
956
Dr. Stephen Henson7bbd0de2010-07-21 16:14:48 +0000957 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
958 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
959 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
960 [Steve Henson]
961
Dr. Stephen Hensonf96ccf32010-07-18 17:43:18 +0000962 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
963 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
964
965 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
966 a few changes are required:
967
968 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
969 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
970 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
971 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
972 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.

976
977 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
978

991 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
992 [Steve Henson]
993
994 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
995 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
996 so it returns the certificate actually sent.

1033
1034 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1035 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1036 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1037 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1038 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1039 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1040 an MMA defence is not necessary.

1107
1108 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1109 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of

Dr. Stephen Henson22c98d42009-04-08 16:16:35 +00001250 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1251 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher

1253 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1254 [Steve Henson]
1255
Dr. Stephen Henson14023fe2009-04-03 11:45:19 +00001256 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1257 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1258 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1259 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1260 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1261 [Steve Henson]
1262
Dr. Stephen Hensonaaf35f12009-03-30 11:31:50 +00001263 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher

1282
Dr. Stephen Hensonc2c99e22009-01-15 13:22:39 +00001283 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1284 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1285 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1286 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1287 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1288 [Steve Henson]
1289
Dr. Stephen Henson8125d9f2009-01-15 12:52:38 +00001290 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the

Dr. Stephen Henson87d3a0c2008-10-07 22:55:27 +00001315 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1316 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1317 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1318 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1319 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1320 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1321 [Steve Henson]
1322
Dr. Stephen Hensond43c4492008-09-01 15:15:16 +00001323 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate

1328
Dr. Stephen Henson4b968392008-08-29 11:37:21 +00001329 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1330 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1331 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1332 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1333 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1334 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1335 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1336 default.

1378
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +00001379 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1380 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1381 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1382 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1383 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1384 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1385 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1386 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1387
1388 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1389 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1390 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1391
Bodo Möller2ecd2ed2008-08-13 19:30:01 +00001392 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1393 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1394 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1395 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1396
Geoff Thorpe4c329692008-08-06 15:54:15 +00001397 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1398 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1399 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1400 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1401 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1402 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1403 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1404 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1405 of &errno.)

1470 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1471 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1472 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1473 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1474
1475 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1476 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1477 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1478 return non-zero for success.
1479
1480 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1481 by using
1482
1483 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1484 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1485
1486 where
1487
1488 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1489 void *arg;
1490
1491 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1492 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1493 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1494 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1495 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1496 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1497 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1498 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1499 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1500
1501 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1502 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1503 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1504 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1505 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1506 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1507
1508 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1509 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1510 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1511 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1512 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1513 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.

1521
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +00001522 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1523 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1524 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1525 supported.
1526
Dr. Stephen Hensonba0e8262007-08-23 22:59:09 +00001527 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1528 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1529 SSL_SESSION.
1530
1531 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1532 protection in servers so again support should be possible
Dr. Stephen Henson6434abb2007-08-11 23:18:29 +00001533 with no application modification.
1534
1535 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1536 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1537
1538 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1539 or server extensions to be examined.

Dr. Stephen Henson2022cfe2007-04-11 17:20:40 +00001561 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and

1569 [Steve Henson]
1570
Bodo Möllerfd5bc652007-02-20 16:36:58 +00001571 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1572 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1573 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1574 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1575 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1576 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1577 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1578 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1579 enabled again.
1580
1581 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1582 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1583 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1584 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1585
1586 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02001587 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
Bodo Möllerfd5bc652007-02-20 16:36:58 +00001588 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1589 the default order.
1590 [Bodo Moeller]
1591
Bodo Möller0a051232007-02-19 18:41:41 +00001592 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1593 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1594 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1595 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1596 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1597 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1598 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1599 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1600 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1601
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00001602 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1603 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1604 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1605 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1606 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1607 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1608 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1609 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1610 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1611 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1612 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1613 kinds of kludges.
1614
1615 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1616 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1617 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1618
1619 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1620 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1621 "CAMELLIA256".
1622 [Bodo Moeller]

1642 [Andy Polyakov]
1643
Dr. Stephen Henson010fa0b2006-09-21 12:42:15 +00001644 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1645 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1646 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1647 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1648 [Steve Henson]
1649
Dr. Stephen Henson5d20c4f2006-09-17 17:16:28 +00001650 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1651 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1652 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1653 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1654 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1655 [Steve Henson]
1656

1660
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc7535b2006-09-14 17:25:02 +00001661 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1662 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1663 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1664 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1665 [Steve Henson]
1666
1667 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1668 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1669 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1670 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1671 [Steve Henson]
1672
Dr. Stephen Hensonf6e7d012006-07-25 17:39:38 +00001673 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.

1675 [Steve Henson]
1676
Dr. Stephen Hensonedc54022006-07-24 12:39:22 +00001677 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1678 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1679 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1680 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1681 [Steve Henson]
1682
Dr. Stephen Henson450ea832006-07-18 12:36:19 +00001683 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)

1693 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1694 [Steve Henson]
1695
1696 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1697 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1698 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1699 if necessary.
1700 [Steve Henson]
1701
Dr. Stephen Henson0ee21662006-07-09 16:05:43 +00001702 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1703 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1704 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1705 [Steve Henson]
1706
Dr. Stephen Henson5ba4bf32006-07-09 00:53:45 +00001707 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1708 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1709 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1710 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1711 [Steve Henson]
1712
Bodo Möllerc4e78702006-06-18 22:00:57 +00001713 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1714 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1715 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1716 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1717 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1718 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1719 [Douglas Stebila]
1720
Bodo Möller89bbe142006-06-14 17:40:31 +00001721 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1722 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1723 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1724 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1725 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1726
1727 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1728 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1729 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1730 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1731 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1732 protocol).
1733
1734 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1735 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1736 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1737 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1738
1739 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1740 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1741 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1742 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1743 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1744
1745 aECDH - ECDH cert
1746 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1747 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1748
1749 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1750 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")

Dr. Stephen Henson58aa5732006-06-01 11:38:50 +00001762 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9777d22006-06-02 12:33:39 +00001763 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1764 functional reference processing.

1766
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02001767 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
Dr. Stephen Henson91c9e622006-05-24 17:30:09 +00001768 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1769 process.
1770 [Steve Henson]
1771
Dr. Stephen Henson55311922006-05-18 23:44:44 +00001772 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1773 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1774 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1775 [Steve Henson]
1776
Dr. Stephen Hensona6e7fcd2006-05-18 12:41:28 +00001777 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1778 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1779 application to support multiple signers.
1780 [Steve Henson]
1781
Dr. Stephen Henson121dd392006-05-17 18:46:22 +00001782 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1783 digest MAC.
1784 [Steve Henson]
1785
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +00001786 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb8f702a2006-05-15 17:34:36 +00001787 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3a1ea2006-05-15 18:35:13 +00001788 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1789 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1790 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
Dr. Stephen Henson856640b2006-05-14 18:40:53 +00001791 [Steve Henson]
1792
Dr. Stephen Henson34b3c722006-05-14 16:50:22 +00001793 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
Dr. Stephen Henson959e8df2006-05-11 21:39:00 +00001794 new API.
1795 [Steve Henson]
1796
Dr. Stephen Henson399a6f02006-05-08 12:44:25 +00001797 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1798 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1799 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1800 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1801 a no op.

Richard Levitte28e4fe32005-05-18 04:04:12 +00001803
Dr. Stephen Henson03919682006-05-07 17:09:39 +00001804 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1805 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1806 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02001807 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
Dr. Stephen Henson03919682006-05-07 17:09:39 +00001808 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1809 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1810 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1811 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1812 [Steve Henson]
1813
Dr. Stephen Hensonee1d9ec2006-04-19 17:05:59 +00001814 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1815 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1816 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1817 between digests and public key types.

Dr. Stephen Hensond2027092006-04-18 23:36:07 +00001820 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1821 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1822 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1823 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1824 [Steve Henson]
1825
Dr. Stephen Henson492a9e22006-04-17 17:12:23 +00001826 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1827 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1828 key ASN1 method.
1829 [Steve Henson]
1830
Dr. Stephen Henson9ca70472006-04-16 16:15:59 +00001831 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1832 [Steve Henson]
1833
Dr. Stephen Hensonffb1ac62006-04-13 20:16:56 +00001834 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1835 pkeyutl.
1836 [Steve Henson]
1837
Dr. Stephen Henson3ba08852006-04-12 23:51:24 +00001838 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1839 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1840 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1841 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1842 pkey, genpkey.
1843 [Steve Henson]
1844
Ulf Möller4700aea2006-04-11 21:34:21 +00001845 *) BeOS support.
1846 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1847
1848 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1849 manual pages.
1850 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1851
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02001852 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +00001853 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1854 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1855 functionality for RSA.
1856 [Steve Henson]
1857
Dr. Stephen Hensonf733a5e2006-04-07 16:42:09 +00001858 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1859 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1860 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1861 [Steve Henson]
1862
Dr. Stephen Henson0b6f3c62006-04-06 13:02:06 +00001863 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1864 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1865 [Steve Henson]
1866
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33dac2006-04-04 18:16:03 +00001867 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1868 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1869 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1870 [Steve Henson]
1871
Bodo Möller33273722006-03-30 02:44:56 +00001872 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1873 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1874 [Douglas Stebila]
1875
Dr. Stephen Henson246e0932006-03-28 17:23:48 +00001876 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1877 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1878 [Steve Henson]
1879
Dr. Stephen Henson3e4585c2006-03-28 14:35:32 +00001880 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5cda4c2006-04-11 13:28:52 +00001881 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
Dr. Stephen Henson3e4585c2006-03-28 14:35:32 +00001882 type.
Dr. Stephen Henson3e84b6e2006-03-28 12:34:45 +00001883 [Steve Henson]
1884
Dr. Stephen Henson35208f32006-03-22 13:09:35 +00001885 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1886 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1887 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1888 structure.
1889 [Steve Henson]
1890
Dr. Stephen Henson448be742006-03-20 12:22:24 +00001891 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1892 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1893 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1894 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1895 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1896 of public and private key structures.
1897 [Steve Henson]
1898
Bodo Möller36ca4ba2006-03-11 23:46:37 +00001899 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1900 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1901 [Douglas Stebila]
1902
Nils Larschddac1972006-03-10 23:06:27 +00001903 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1904 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1905 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1906
1907 New ciphersuites:
1908 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1909 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1910
1911 New functions:
1912 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1913 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1914 SSL_get_psk_identity
1915 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint

1917 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1918
Ulf Möllerc7235be2006-02-12 23:11:56 +00001919 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1920 and response verification functionality.
1921 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1922
Bodo Möller1aeb3da2006-01-06 09:08:59 +00001923 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1924 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1925 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1926 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1927 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1928 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1929 server_name extension.
Bodo Möllerf1fd4542006-01-03 03:27:19 +00001930
1931 New functions (subject to change):
1932
1933 SSL_get_servername()
1934 SSL_get_servername_type()
1935 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1936
1937 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1938
1939 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1940 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1941 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG

Bodo Möllerb1277b92006-01-02 23:29:12 +00001944
Bodo Möller241520e2006-01-11 06:10:40 +00001945 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
Bodo Möllerb1277b92006-01-02 23:29:12 +00001946
Bodo Möller241520e2006-01-11 06:10:40 +00001947 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1948 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1949 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1950 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1951 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1952 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1953 option.

Andy Polyakoved266042005-12-16 12:55:33 +00001957 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1958 [Andy Polyakov]
1959
Andy Polyakov0cb9d932005-12-16 11:12:42 +00001960 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1961 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1962 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1963 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1964 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1965 [Andy Polyakov]
1966
Bodo Möller8dee9f82005-11-15 21:08:38 +00001967 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1968 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1969 macro.
1970 [Bodo Moeller]
1971
Andy Polyakov4d524042005-10-22 17:57:18 +00001972 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1973 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1974 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1975 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1976 [Andy Polyakov]
1977
Dr. Stephen Henson566dda02005-10-08 00:18:53 +00001978 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1979 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1980 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1981 using the maximum available value.
1982 [Steve Henson]
1983
Bodo Möller13e46702005-10-01 04:08:48 +00001984 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1985 in addition to the text details.
1986 [Bodo Moeller]
1987
Dr. Stephen Henson1ef7acf2005-09-01 13:59:16 +00001988 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1989 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1990 handle several customised structures at all.
1991 [Steve Henson]
1992
Dr. Stephen Hensona0156a92005-08-31 16:37:54 +00001993 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1994 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1995 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1996 [Steve Henson]
1997
Dr. Stephen Hensoneea374f2005-08-21 00:18:26 +00001998 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1999 [Steve Henson]
2000
Dr. Stephen Henson45e27382005-08-20 18:12:45 +00002001 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2002 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2003 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
Dr. Stephen Hensoneea374f2005-08-21 00:18:26 +00002004 [Steve Henson]
Dr. Stephen Henson45e27382005-08-20 18:12:45 +00002005
Nils Larsch4ebb3422005-08-14 21:48:33 +00002006 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2007 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2008 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2009 [Nils Larsch]
2010
Dr. Stephen Henson9aa9d702005-07-24 00:23:57 +00002011 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously

Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02002022 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
2023
2024 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
2025
2026 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
2027 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
2028 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
2029
2030 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2031 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2032 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
2033 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
2034 (CVE-2013-0169)
2035 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2036
2037 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2038 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2039 [Steve Henson]
2040
2041 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
2042 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
2043 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
2044 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.

2046 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2047
2048 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2049 [Steve Henson]
2050
2051 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
2052
2053 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
2054 to fix DoS attack.
2055
2056 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2057 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2058 (CVE-2012-2333)
2059 [Steve Henson]
2060
2061 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2062 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2063 [Steve Henson]
2064
2065 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
2066
2067 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
2068 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
2069 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
2070 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
2071 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2072
2073 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
2074
2075 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2076 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2077 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2078

2082 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2083
2084 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
2085
2086 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2087 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2088 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2089 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2090 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2091 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2092 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2093 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2094 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2095 [Steve Henson]

2111
2112 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2113 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2114 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2115 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing

2151 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2152
Bodo Möllere5641d72011-10-19 14:59:27 +00002153 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2154 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2155 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2156
2157 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2158 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2159 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2160 the last update always remained unused).

Dr. Stephen Henson47e0a1c2010-02-17 14:32:41 +00002268 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2269 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2270 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2271 [Steve Henson]
2272
Dr. Stephen Henson4ba1aa32010-01-27 14:05:39 +00002273 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
Dr. Stephen Hensond5e7f2f2010-01-26 19:47:37 +00002274 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2275 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2276 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2277 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2278 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.

2285
Dr. Stephen Henson1b31b5a2010-01-13 18:57:40 +00002286 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2287 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
Dr. Stephen Henson58c0da82010-01-26 12:30:00 +00002288 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
Dr. Stephen Henson1b31b5a2010-01-13 18:57:40 +00002289 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2290 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2291 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2292 CVE-2009-4355.
2293 [Steve Henson]

Bodo Möller3e8b6482010-03-25 11:25:30 +00002295 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't

Dr. Stephen Henson82e610e2009-12-08 19:06:26 +00002307 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9595982010-02-12 21:59:31 +00002308 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2309 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2310 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2311 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2312 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2313 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2314 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2315 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.

2336 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2337 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2338 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if

Dr. Stephen Hensonbb4060c2009-10-30 13:29:30 +00002340 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in

2505 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the

2608 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2609
2610 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2611 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2612 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2613 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2614 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2615
2616 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2617 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2618
2619 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2620 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2621 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2622 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2623 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)

Geoff Thorpee7b097f2008-04-28 21:39:09 +00002633 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2634 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2635 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2636 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2637 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2638 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2639 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2640 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2641 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2642 implementation.

2648 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be

Andy Polyakov0d89e452007-10-13 10:55:30 +00002722 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2723 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2724 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2725 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2726 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2727 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2728 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2729 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2730 [Andy Polyakov]
2731
2732 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers

2734 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2735 Steve Henson]
2736
2737 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2738 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2739 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2740 supported.
2741
2742 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2743 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2744 SSL_SESSION.
2745
2746 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2747 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2748 with no application modification.
2749
2750 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2751 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2752
2753 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2754 or server extensions to be examined.
2755
2756 This work was sponsored by Google.
2757 [Steve Henson]
2758
2759 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2760 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2761 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2762 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2763 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2764 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2765 server_name extension.
2766
2767 New functions (subject to change):
2768
2769 SSL_get_servername()
2770 SSL_get_servername_type()
2771 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2772
2773 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):

2775 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2776 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2777 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2778 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2779 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2780
2781 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2782
2783 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2784 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2785 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2786 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2787 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2788 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2789 option.

Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00002823 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2824 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2825 information. For detailed background information, see
2826 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2827 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2828 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2829 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2830 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2831 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2832 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
Bodo Möllerb0022652007-03-28 18:41:23 +00002833 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2834 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2835 remove a conditional branch.
Bodo Möllerbd31fb22007-03-28 00:15:28 +00002836
2837 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2838 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2839 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2840 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2841 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2842 remains as a deprecated alias.
2843
2844 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2845 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2846 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2847 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2848
2849 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2850 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2851 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2852 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2853 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2854 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2855 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2856 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.

2859
Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00002860 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2861 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2862 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2863 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2864 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2865 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2866 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2867 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2868 in a different context.

Bodo Möllerdb99c522008-09-14 13:51:44 +00002876 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2877 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow

Bodo Möller0f32c842007-03-21 14:33:16 +00002880 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2881
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00002882 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2883 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2884 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2885 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2886 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2887 [Victor Duchovni]
2888
Bodo Möller772e3c02006-12-19 15:11:37 +00002889 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2890 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2891 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2892 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2893 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2894 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2895 [Bodo Moeller]
2896
Bodo Möller1e24b3a2006-11-29 14:45:50 +00002897 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2898 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2899 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2900 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2901 message has informed the client about his choice.)

2909 Improve header file function name parsing.

Mark J. Cox3ff55e92006-09-28 13:18:43 +00002918 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to

2928 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2929 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2930 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2931
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00002932 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2933 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
Bodo Möllerb6699c32006-09-12 14:42:19 +00002934 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2935 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00002936 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2937 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2938 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2939 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2940 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2941
2942 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2943 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2944 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2945 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2946 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2947
2948 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2949 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2950 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2951 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2952 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02002953 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
Bodo Möllered65f7d2006-09-11 09:49:03 +00002954 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2955 multiple values to extend the available space.

Bodo Möllere34aa5a2006-06-28 14:50:12 +00002967 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when

2971
Bodo Möller81de1022006-06-22 12:37:28 +00002972 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2973 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2974 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2975 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2976 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2977 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2978 to avoid potential handshake problems.

2999
Bodo Möllerf3dea9a2006-06-09 15:44:59 +00003000 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key

3148 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3149 [Walter Goulet]
3150
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003151 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
Nils Larsch60493992005-04-07 23:19:17 +00003152 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3153 [Nils Larsch]
3154
Nils Larsch12bdb642005-04-02 09:29:15 +00003155 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3156 the apps/openssl applications.
3157 [Nils Larsch]
Richard Levitte0caec9e2002-02-13 17:46:38 +00003158
Ben Laurie41a15c42005-03-31 09:26:39 +00003159 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3160 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3161 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3162 [Ben Laurie]
3163
Bodo Möllerc9a112f2005-02-22 10:29:51 +00003164 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003165 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
Bodo Möllerecc5ef82005-03-02 20:11:31 +00003166
3167 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3168 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3169
3170 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3171 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3172 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3173 avoid this algorithm.)
3174
Bodo Möllerc9a112f2005-02-22 10:29:51 +00003175 [Bodo Moeller]
3176
Richard Levitte6951c232004-12-28 00:21:35 +00003177 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3178 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3179 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3180 [Richard Levitte]
3181
Andy Polyakovea681ba2004-11-26 15:26:09 +00003182 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3183 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3184 [Andy Polyakov]
3185
Dr. Stephen Henson401ee372004-11-25 17:47:31 +00003186 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3187 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3188 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3189 pod file:
3190
3191 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3192
3193 The blank line is mandatory.
3194
3195 [Steve Henson]
3196
Dr. Stephen Henson826a42a2004-11-16 17:30:59 +00003197 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3198 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3199 sources.
3200 [Steve Henson]
3201
Dr. Stephen Henson5d7c2222004-09-06 18:43:01 +00003202 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3203 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3204
3205 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3206 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3207 to support policy checking and print out.
3208 [Steve Henson]
3209
Geoff Thorpe30fe0282004-08-04 22:42:29 +00003210 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3211 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3212 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3213 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3214
Geoff Thorpedf11e1e2004-06-17 23:50:25 +00003215 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3216 [Geoff Thorpe]
3217
Andy Polyakovad500342004-05-31 14:03:02 +00003218 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3219 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3220
Andy Polyakove14f4aa2004-05-13 13:58:44 +00003221 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3222 implementation contributed by IBM.
3223 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3224
Geoff Thorpebcfea9f2004-04-26 15:31:35 +00003225 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3226 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3227 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3228 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3229
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00003230 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3231 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3232
3233 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3234 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3235 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3236 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3237 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3238 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
Dr. Stephen Henson64674bc2004-04-20 12:05:26 +00003239 [Steve Henson]
3240
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003241 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
Geoff Thorpe3a87a9b2004-04-19 17:46:04 +00003242 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3243 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3244 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3245 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3246 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3247 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3248 [Geoff Thorpe]
3249
Dr. Stephen Hensonbf5773f2004-03-31 12:55:33 +00003250 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3251 [Steve Henson]
3252
Dr. Stephen Henson216659e2004-03-28 17:38:00 +00003253 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3254 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3255 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3256 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3257 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3258 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3259 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3260 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3261 [Steve Henson]
3262
Dr. Stephen Hensone1a27eb2004-03-27 22:49:28 +00003263 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3264 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3265 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3266 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3267 [Steve Henson]
3268
Dr. Stephen Henson6446e0c2004-03-27 13:30:14 +00003269 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3270 syntax:
3271
3272 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3273 [Steve Henson]
3274
Geoff Thorpe5c98b2c2004-03-25 04:16:14 +00003275 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3276 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3277 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3278 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3279 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3280 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3281 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3282 [Geoff Thorpe]
3283
Geoff Thorpe46ef8732004-03-25 02:52:04 +00003284 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3285 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3286 [Geoff Thorpe]
3287
Dr. Stephen Henson4acc3e92004-03-23 14:14:35 +00003288 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3289 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3290 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3291 [Steve Henson]
3292
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00003293 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3294 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3295 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3296 below).
3297 [Geoff Thorpe]
3298
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00003299 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3300 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
Geoff Thorpe7f663ce2004-03-17 18:30:47 +00003301 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levitte875a6442004-03-15 23:15:26 +00003302
Geoff Thorpeb6358c82004-03-13 23:57:20 +00003303 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3304 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3305 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3306 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3307 [Geoff Thorpe]
3308
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00003309 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3310 initialised value as BN_new().
3311 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3312
Dr. Stephen Hensonedec6142004-03-08 13:56:31 +00003313 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3314 [Steve Henson]
3315
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00003316 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3317 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3318 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3319 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3320 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3321 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3322 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3323 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3324 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3325 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3326 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3327 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3328 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3329 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
Geoff Thorpe9e051ba2004-03-13 22:10:15 +00003330 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
Geoff Thorped8707402003-11-04 22:54:49 +00003331
Geoff Thorpe2ce90b92003-10-29 18:04:37 +00003332 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3333 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3334 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3335 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3336 [Geoff Thorpe]
3337
Geoff Thorpe8dc344c2003-10-29 04:57:05 +00003338 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3339 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3340 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3341 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3342 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3343 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3344 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3345 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3346 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3347 [Geoff Thorpe]
3348
Geoff Thorpe0991f072003-10-29 04:40:13 +00003349 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3350 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3351 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3352 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3353 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3354 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3355 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3356 [Geoff Thorpe]
3357
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00003358 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
Geoff Thorpe2aaec9c2003-10-29 04:14:08 +00003359 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3360 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3361 these have been updated also.
Geoff Thorpe9d473aa2003-10-29 04:06:50 +00003362 [Geoff Thorpe]
3363
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00003364 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003365 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00003366 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3367 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3368 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3369 functions.
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00003370 [Steve Henson]
3371
Dr. Stephen Hensonc5a55462003-10-11 22:11:45 +00003372 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3373 structure of type "other".
Dr. Stephen Henson8d9086d2003-10-10 23:40:47 +00003374 [Steve Henson]
3375
Ralf S. Engelschall6bd27f82003-09-25 13:57:58 +00003376 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3377 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3378 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3379 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3380 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3381 situation in the script.
3382 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3383
Bodo Möller968766c2003-07-22 12:34:21 +00003384 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3385 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3386 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3387 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3388 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3389 used as premaster secret.
3390 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3391
Bodo Möller652ae062003-07-22 10:39:10 +00003392 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3393 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3394 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3395
Richard Levittee666c452003-06-11 22:42:28 +00003396 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3397 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3398
Richard Levitte54f64512003-06-11 20:49:58 +00003399 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3400 control of the error stack.
3401 [Richard Levitte]
3402
Richard Levitte3bbb0212003-05-01 03:57:46 +00003403 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3404 [Richard Levitte]
3405
Richard Levittea5db6fa2003-05-01 03:53:12 +00003406 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3407 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3408 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3409 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3410 [Richard Levitte]
3411
Richard Levitte535fba42003-05-01 03:45:18 +00003412 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3413 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3414 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3415 [Richard Levitte]
3416
Richard Levitte1ae0a832003-04-29 22:08:57 +00003417 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3418 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3419 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3420 a memory area.
3421 [Richard Levitte]
3422
Richard Levitte9d6c32d2003-04-29 20:31:58 +00003423 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3424 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3425 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3426 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3427 [Richard Levitte]
3428
Richard Levitteea5240a2003-04-29 20:25:21 +00003429 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3430 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3431 the following flags are defined:
3432
3433 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3434 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3435 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3436 number.
3437
3438 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3439 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3440 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3441 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3442 returns zero.

Richard Levitte16b1b032003-04-03 22:33:59 +00003445 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3446 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3447 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3448 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3449 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3450 [Richard Levitte]
3451
Richard Levittee6526fb2003-04-03 22:27:24 +00003452 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3453 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3454 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3455 [Richard Levitte]
3456
Richard Levittef85b68c2003-04-03 16:33:03 +00003457 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3458 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3459 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3460 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3461 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3462 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3463 [Richard Levitte]
3464
Dr. Stephen Henson1a15c892003-03-30 01:51:16 +00003465 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for

3467 [Steve Henson]
3468
Dr. Stephen Henson520b76f2003-03-24 17:04:44 +00003469 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.

3474
Dr. Stephen Hensona1d12da2003-03-20 17:26:44 +00003475 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3476 [Steve Henson]
3477
Geoff Thorpe879650b2003-03-11 01:49:21 +00003478 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3479 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3480 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3481 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3482 default implementation more easily.

Dr. Stephen Hensonf0dc08e2003-02-27 01:54:11 +00003485 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3486 in config files.
3487 [Steve Henson]
3488
Richard Levitte132eaa52003-02-22 14:41:34 +00003489 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3490 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3491 [Richard Levitte]
3492
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00003493 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3494 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3495 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3496 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3497
Dr. Stephen Hensone9ec6392003-02-25 19:03:31 +00003498 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
Dr. Stephen Henson27068df2003-02-15 00:50:55 +00003499 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3500 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3501 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3502 [Steve Henson]
3503
Richard Levitte2d3de722003-02-13 23:52:54 +00003504 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3505 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3506 to do it.
3507 [Richard Levitte]
3508
Bodo Möller37c660f2003-02-06 19:25:12 +00003509 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with

3515 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3516
Dr. Stephen Henson4e5d3a72003-02-05 00:34:31 +00003517 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3518 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3519 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3520 correctly.
3521 [Steve Henson]
3522
Geoff Thorpe96f70652003-01-30 15:52:40 +00003523 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3524 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3525 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3526 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3527 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3528 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3529 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3530 linker additions, eg;
3531 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3532 [Geoff Thorpe]
3533
3534 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3535 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3536 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3537 [Geoff Thorpe]
3538
Lutz Jänickea74333f2003-01-15 14:54:59 +00003539 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects

3541 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>

3544
Geoff Thorpe0e4aa0d2003-01-15 02:01:55 +00003545 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3546 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3547 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003548 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.

3550
Geoff Thorpee9224c72002-12-08 05:24:31 +00003551 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3552 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3553 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3554 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3555 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3556 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3557 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3558 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3559 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3560 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00003561
3562 Example for using the new callback interface:

3565 void *my_arg = ...;
3566 BN_GENCB my_cb;

3568 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3569
3570 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3571 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3572 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3573 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.

3575 * to continue, or 0 to stop.

3583 [Richard Levitte]
3584
Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00003585 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3586 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3587
3588 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
Bodo Möller9d5390a2003-01-13 13:44:20 +00003589 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,

Richard Levitte20199ca2002-11-18 23:56:15 +00003592
3593 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3594 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3595
3596 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3597 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3598 well.

3604
Nils Larschff22e912005-04-22 20:02:44 +00003605 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function

3614 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).

3621
Richard Levitte6f7c2cb2002-10-11 22:06:44 +00003622 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3623 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3624 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3625 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3626 directory engines/.
3627 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3628 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3629 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3630 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02003631 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
Richard Levitte874fee42002-10-12 16:07:31 +00003632 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run

3642
Dr. Stephen Henson9a48b072002-10-03 23:53:52 +00003643 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3644 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3645 files while avoiding the low level API.
3646
3647 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3648 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3649 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3650 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3651
3652 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3653 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3654 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3655 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3656 instead of the low level API.
3657 [Steve Henson]
3658
Dr. Stephen Henson230fd6b2002-10-03 12:38:52 +00003659 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3660 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3661 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3662 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3663 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3664 PKCS#7 code.
3665
3666 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3667 down to the template encoder.

3715 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3716 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3717 enable it).
3718
3719 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3720 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3721 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3722 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3723 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
Bodo Möller9e4f9b32002-08-02 13:52:19 +00003724 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from

Bodo Möller7793f302002-08-02 13:42:24 +00003726
3727 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and

3770
3771 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3772 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3773
3774 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3775 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3776 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3777 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial

3779 where
3780 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.

Bodo Möller4d94ae02002-02-13 18:21:51 +00003888 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the

3892 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3893 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3894 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be

3929 [Bodo Moeller]
3930
Bodo Möller52b8dad2007-02-17 06:45:38 +00003931 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of

4127 This change has negligible security impact because:
4128
4129 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random

Richard Levitte5022e4e2004-11-29 11:57:00 +00004171 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4172 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4173 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4174 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4175
4176 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4177 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4178 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4179 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4180 been given)

Dr. Stephen Henson2f605e82004-10-04 16:30:12 +00004185 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4186 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4187 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4188 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4189 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().

4197
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00004198 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4199 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4200 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4201 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4202 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4203 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4204 rather than being initialized to 1.

Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00004215 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4216
4217 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4218 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4219 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4220 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4221 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4222 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.

Dr. Stephen Hensonbc501572004-03-05 17:16:35 +00004225 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4226 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4227 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4228 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4229 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4230 for these cases.
4231 [Steve Henson]
4232
Dr. Stephen Hensondc90f642004-02-19 18:16:38 +00004233 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4234 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4235 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4236 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4237 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4238 [Steve Henson]
4239
Dr. Stephen Hensond4575822004-02-01 13:39:51 +00004240 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4241 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4242 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4243 < 0.9.7.

4286 [Richard Levitte]
4287
Dr. Stephen Henson63b81552003-06-03 00:16:47 +00004288 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4289 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4290 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4291 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4292 certain size.
4293 [Steve Henson]
4294
Dr. Stephen Hensonbeab0982003-06-01 20:51:58 +00004295 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4296 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4297 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4298 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4299 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME

Bodo Möller02da5bc2003-03-19 19:19:53 +00004305 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4306 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat

4309 [Bodo Moeller]
4310
Bodo Möllerc5541552003-03-20 17:31:30 +00004311 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4312 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4313 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4314 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
Bodo Möller5679bcc2003-04-02 09:50:22 +00004315 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möllerc5541552003-03-20 17:31:30 +00004316
4317 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4318 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4319 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
Bodo Möller5679bcc2003-04-02 09:50:22 +00004320 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4321 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4322 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4323 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4324 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4325 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

4327
Bodo Möllerd5f686d2004-05-04 01:15:48 +00004328 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4329 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4330 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4331 should make sure they are passing it correctly.

Richard Levitte5b0b0e92003-02-19 12:03:59 +00004342 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4343 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish

Richard Levitte758f9422003-02-18 12:14:57 +00004350 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4351 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4352 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4353 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4354 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4355
4356 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4357 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4358 used by default when no-err is given.

4369
Dr. Stephen Hensoncf566632003-02-12 17:06:02 +00004370 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4371 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4372 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4373 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4374
4375 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4376
4377 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4378
4379 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4380
4381 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4382 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4383 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4384 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4385 root is omitted).

Lutz Jänicke8ec16ce2003-01-15 09:51:22 +00004401 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4402 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4403 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4404 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to

Richard Levitte14676ff2002-12-12 17:40:15 +00004438 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
Richard Levittea1457872002-12-13 07:30:53 +00004439 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4440 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
Richard Levitte14676ff2002-12-12 17:40:15 +00004441 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4442 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4443 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4444 of libcrypto.
4445 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4446 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4447 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually

Dr. Stephen Henson1fc6d412001-10-26 12:40:38 +00004829 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.

4831
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004832 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
Ben Laurie0e211562001-10-25 14:27:17 +00004833 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4834 [Ben Laurie]
4835
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004836 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
Bodo Möller89da6532001-10-25 08:25:19 +00004837 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4838 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4839 has the same effect.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004842 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00004843 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
Richard Levitte2d57b732002-01-26 01:14:09 +00004844 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004845 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4846 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4847 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4848 exception.
Richard Levitte12852212002-01-24 12:26:50 +00004849
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004850 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4851 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4852 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4853 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4854
4855 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4856 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4857 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4858 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4859
4860 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4861 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4862 won't work.
Richard Levittec2e4f172001-10-24 21:21:12 +00004863
4864 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4865 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4866 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
Richard Levitte0d81c692002-03-26 14:28:04 +00004867 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4868 default), and then completely removed.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004871 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonf1558bb2001-10-21 02:09:15 +00004872 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4873 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4874 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4875 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4876 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4877 particular extension is supported.
4878 [Steve Henson]
4879
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004880 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
Dr. Stephen Henson581f1c82001-10-17 00:37:12 +00004881 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4882 [Steve Henson]
4883
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004884 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
Dr. Stephen Henson50d194a2001-10-23 00:54:58 +00004885 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4886 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4887 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4888 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4889 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4890 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4891 requires the destination to be valid.
4892
4893 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4894 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().

4896
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004897 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
Bodo Möller48948d52001-10-15 19:49:25 +00004898 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4899 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4900 [Bodo Moeller]
4901
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004902 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.

4904
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004905 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00004906 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4907 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02004908 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
Geoff Thorpe07cee702001-10-01 15:56:25 +00004909 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4910 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4911 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4912 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4913 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4914 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4915 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4916 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4917 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4918 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4919 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4920 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4921 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4922 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4923 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4924 the new code.
4925 [Geoff Thorpe]
4926
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004927 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.

4929
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004930 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
Richard Levitte89eecca2001-09-26 15:06:45 +00004931 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4932 become part of libeay.num as well.
4933 [Richard Levitte]
4934
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004935 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00004936 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02004937 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00004938 false once a handshake has been completed.
4939 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4940 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4941 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4942 client has followed the request.)
4943 [Bodo Moeller]
4944
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004945 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
Bodo Möller6b0e9fa2001-09-20 22:54:09 +00004946 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4947 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4948 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
Bodo Möllerc21506b2002-06-14 12:21:11 +00004949
4950 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4951 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4952 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).

4957
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004958 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application

4966
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004967 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
Geoff Thorpe908efd32001-09-05 19:07:01 +00004968 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4969 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4970 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004973 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00004974 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4975 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4976 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4977 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4978 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4979 [Geoff Thorpe]
4980
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004981 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
Geoff Thorpe541814c2001-09-05 17:50:24 +00004982 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4983 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4984 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4985 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4986 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4987 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4988 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4989 [Geoff Thorpe]
4990
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00004991 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new

5001
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005002 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
Ben Laurie26188932001-09-02 20:05:27 +00005003 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5004 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5005 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5006 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5007 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5008 [Ben Laurie]
5009
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005010 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00005011 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5012 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5013 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5014 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5015 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5016 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5017 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5018 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5019 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5020 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5021 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5022 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5023 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5024 rather than letting it slide.
Bodo Möller6ee2a132001-09-04 11:13:01 +00005025
5026 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5027 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5028 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
Geoff Thorpe36026df2001-09-01 20:20:16 +00005029 [Geoff Thorpe]
5030
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005031 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
Geoff Thorpe0783bf12001-08-25 17:59:13 +00005032 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5033 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5034 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5035 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5036 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5037 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5038 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5039 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5040 [Geoff Thorpe]
5041
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005042 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
Geoff Thorpeeb6dc022001-08-25 17:37:46 +00005043 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5044 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5045 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5046 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
Bodo Möller3cad81f2001-09-05 21:39:39 +00005047
5048 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005057 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
Dr. Stephen Henson35bf3542001-08-17 00:33:43 +00005058 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5059 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5060 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5061 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.

5063
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005064 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00005065 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
Bodo Möller6383bbe2001-08-03 09:28:02 +00005066 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
Lutz Jänicke06da6e42001-08-03 08:45:13 +00005067 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5068 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5069 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005072 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
Bodo Möller76f8a1f2002-06-26 14:21:16 +00005073 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5074 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).

Ben Laurie8408f4f2001-07-31 13:33:58 +00005088 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5089 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5090 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
Bodo Möller4f4b1922002-04-09 11:54:24 +00005091 anyway): E.g.,

5093 des_key_schedule ks;
5094
5095 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5096 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005101 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
Dr. Stephen Henson19da1302001-07-26 22:34:45 +00005102 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5103 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5104 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5105 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5106 functions prevents this.

5114 [Ben Laurie]
5115
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005116 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
Dr. Stephen Hensonee306a12001-07-12 20:41:51 +00005117 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5118 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5119 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5120 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005126 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
Richard Levitte0665dd62001-07-12 04:23:57 +00005127 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5128 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5129 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5130
5131 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5132 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5133
5134 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005139 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
Geoff Thorpeaf436bc2001-07-11 18:59:25 +00005140 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5141 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5142 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).

Dr. Stephen Hensonb7a26e62001-06-28 11:41:50 +00005167 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5168 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5169 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5170 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the

5185 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback

5222
5223 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5224
5225 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005226 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
Dr. Stephen Henson4831e622001-05-12 23:57:41 +00005227 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly

5229 [Steve Henson]
5230
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005231 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
Dr. Stephen Henson926a56b2001-05-10 00:13:59 +00005232 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5233 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5234 [Steve Henson]
5235
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005236 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
Dr. Stephen Hensonbdee69f2001-05-09 00:30:39 +00005237 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5238 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5239 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5240 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5241 internally such as S/MIME.
5242
5243 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5244 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5245 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5246
5247 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5248 applications.
5249 [Steve Henson]
5250
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005251 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
Dr. Stephen Hensonb545dc62001-05-07 22:52:50 +00005252 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5253 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5254 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5255
5256 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5257
5258 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5259
5260 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5261 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5262 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5263 handling.
5264 [Steve Henson]
5265
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005266 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
Bodo Möller8a774dc2001-06-11 09:55:20 +00005267 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5268 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5269 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5270 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5271 a window system and the like.

5273
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005274 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00005275 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5276 [Geoff]
5277
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005278 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
Geoff Thorpee5a77632001-04-26 20:42:12 +00005279 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5280 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5281 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5282 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5283 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5284 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5285 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5286 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5287 ENGINE structure.

5289
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005290 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
Dr. Stephen Hensonc9624792001-04-21 12:06:01 +00005291 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the

5293 [Steve Henson]
5294
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005295 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00005296 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5297 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5298 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5299 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5300 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5301 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5302 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5303 [Geoff]
5304
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005305 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00005306 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5307 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5308 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5309 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5310 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5311 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5312 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5313 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5314 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5315 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5316 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5317 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5318 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5319 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5320 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5321 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5322 [Geoff]
5323
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005324 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
Geoff Thorpe2a8a10e2001-04-19 23:06:00 +00005325 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5326 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5327 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5328 internal engine_int.h header.
5329 [Geoff]
5330
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005331 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00005332 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5333 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5334 modify their own ones).
5335 [Geoff]
5336
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005337 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00005338 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5339 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5340 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5341 later on via ctrl() commands.
5342 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5343 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5344 structural references.
5345 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5346 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5347 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5348 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5349 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02005350 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
Geoff Thorpe4d6115a2001-04-18 21:12:02 +00005351 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5352 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5353 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5354 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5355 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5356 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005359 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005360 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
Bodo Möller1f224bf2001-04-09 09:28:24 +00005361 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5362 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5363 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5364 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5365 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5366 for moduli up to 2048 bits.

5372
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005373 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies

5376
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005377 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
Dr. Stephen Henson535d79d2001-03-15 19:13:40 +00005378 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5379 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5380 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5381 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5382 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5383 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005386 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication

5391
Bodo Möller38374912001-03-11 12:27:24 +00005392 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case

Bodo Möller48fe4d62001-03-10 23:18:35 +00005398
5399 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5400 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5401 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5402
5403 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5404 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005480 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00005481 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5482 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5483 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5484 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5485 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5486
5487 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5488 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5489
5490 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5491 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5492
5493 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5494 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5495
5496 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5497 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5498 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5499 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5500
5501 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005502 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00005503
5504 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
Ulf Möllere3fefbf2001-09-07 06:39:38 +00005505 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
Richard Levitte62dc5aa2001-03-02 10:38:19 +00005506
5507 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5508 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5509 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5510 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5511 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).

Dr. Stephen Henson3d2e4692001-02-28 00:51:48 +00005515 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5516 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5517 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().

Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00005527 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5528 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5529 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses

Dr. Stephen Hensonf1965222001-02-24 13:50:06 +00005531 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5532 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5533 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to

5546
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005547 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
Dr. Stephen Henson386828d2001-02-23 13:02:56 +00005548 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5549 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5550 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5551 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5552 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5553 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5554 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5555 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5556 functions returning pointers to structures is not.

Geoff Thorpefa2b8db2001-02-21 18:48:33 +00005560 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5561 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5562 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5563 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5564 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5565 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".

5578 opensslconf.h.
Richard Levitte2affbab2001-02-19 16:15:13 +00005579 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5580 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5581 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5582 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5583 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5584 what is available.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005614 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
Dr. Stephen Henson46a58ab2001-02-12 23:28:45 +00005615 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5616 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5617 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5618 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()

Dr. Stephen Henson50d51992001-01-26 01:55:52 +00005695 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005710 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
Dr. Stephen Hensonba8e2822001-01-20 13:38:45 +00005711 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5712 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5713 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5714 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5715 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005719 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
Dr. Stephen Henson8e8972b2001-01-19 14:21:48 +00005720 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5721 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5722 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5723 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5724 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.

5726
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005727 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
Dr. Stephen Henson73758d42001-01-19 01:32:23 +00005728 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5729 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5730 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5731 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5732 printout format cleaned up.
5733 [Steve Henson]
5734
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005735 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
Dr. Stephen Hensone8af92f2001-01-18 01:35:39 +00005736 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5737 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5738 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5739 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5740 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5741 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5742 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5743 [Steve Henson]
5744
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005745 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
Dr. Stephen Henson81f169e2001-01-17 01:31:34 +00005746 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5747 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5748 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5749 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5750 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5751 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5752 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5753 [Steve Henson]
5754
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005755 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3

5792
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005793 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00005794 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5795 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5796 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5797 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5798 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5799 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5800 functions are provided:
Richard Levitte65a22e82001-01-10 13:14:58 +00005801
5802 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5803 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions

5806
Bodo Möllera5435e82001-01-10 18:09:57 +00005807 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5808 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5809 extended allocation function is enabled.
5810 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5811 a conventional allocation function is enabled.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005821 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
Lutz Jänicke3351b8d2001-05-10 09:45:31 +00005822 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5823 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5824 be queried.
5825 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5826 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5827 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005830 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
Richard Levitte361ef5f2001-01-17 13:43:18 +00005831 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5832 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5833 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5834 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5835 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5836 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5837 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5838 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005841 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
Dr. Stephen Henson0b33bc652001-01-08 01:21:55 +00005842 provide utility functions which an application needing
5843 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5844 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5845 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5846
5847 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5848 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5849 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5850 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5851 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5852 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5853 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5854 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5855 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5856
5857 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5858 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5859 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5860 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5861 [Steve Henson]
5862
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005863 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
Dr. Stephen Henson8e961832001-01-05 03:31:51 +00005864 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5865 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5866 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5867 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5868 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5869 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5870 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5871 will be added elsewhere.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005880 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
Dr. Stephen Hensonec5add82000-12-31 17:31:57 +00005881 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5882 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5883 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5884 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5885 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5886 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5887 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5888 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5889 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5890 to produce the required SET OF.

5900 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5901 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5902 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant

5966 [Steve Henson]
5967
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005968 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
Dr. Stephen Henson06db4252000-12-13 23:54:30 +00005969 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5970 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5971 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5972 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5973 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5974 [Steve Henson]

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005976 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.

5978
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005979 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
Dr. Stephen Henson2aff7722000-12-13 13:47:33 +00005980 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5981 for now but they will eventually go away.
5982 [Steve Henson]
5983
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005984 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
Dr. Stephen Henson5755cab2000-12-20 00:46:44 +00005985 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5986 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5987 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5988 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5989 has also been converted to the new form.

5991
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005992 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00005993 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5994 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5995 for negative moduli.
5996 [Bodo Moeller]
5997
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00005998 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
Bodo Möller8dea52f2000-12-07 22:06:09 +00005999 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6000 [Bodo Moeller]
6001
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006002 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
Bodo Möller80d89e62000-12-07 08:48:58 +00006003 set.
6004 [Bodo Moeller]
6005
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006006 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
Geoff Thorpef1919c32000-12-04 03:35:35 +00006007 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6008 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6009 type-specific callbacks.
6010 [Geoff Thorpe]
6011
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006012 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006025 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
Bodo Mölleraa66eba2000-12-06 21:33:58 +00006026 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6027 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can

Bodo Möllerbdec3c52000-11-29 11:06:50 +00006032 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6033 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006036 *) New function BN_kronecker.

6038
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006039 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +00006040 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6041 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6042 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6043 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6044 [Bodo Moeller]
6045
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006046 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
Bodo Möllerdcbd0d72000-11-27 21:17:20 +00006047 sign of the number in question.
6048
6049 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6050
6051 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6052 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6053 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6054 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6055 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6056 [Bodo Moeller]
6057
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006058 *) New function BN_swap.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006061 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00006062 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable

6064 [Bodo Moeller]
6065
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006066 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00006067 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6068 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6069 [Bodo Moeller]
6070
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006071 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00006072 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00006073 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6074 and add new functions:

Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +00006088
Bodo Möller78a0c1f2000-11-26 16:42:38 +00006089 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6090 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
Bodo Möller5acaa492000-11-26 18:31:32 +00006091
6092 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as

6098 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6099 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6100 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6101
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006102 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00006103 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6104 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
Ulf Möller1946cd82000-12-02 07:50:30 +00006105 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6106 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
Richard Levittebaa257f2000-11-18 22:58:26 +00006107 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6108 differing sizes.

Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006112 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
Bodo Möllerdb70a3f2000-11-17 09:03:02 +00006113 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6114 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6115 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6116 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6117
6118 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6119 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6120 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6121 cause any problems.
6122 [Bodo Moeller]
6123
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006124 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.

6126
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006127 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
Richard Levittee06433d2000-11-07 11:25:26 +00006128 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6129 [Richard Levitte]
6130
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006131 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
Richard Levitte55b3c872000-11-06 23:29:52 +00006132 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6133 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6134 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6135 time)

6146 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6147 ENGINE_load_chil()
6148 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6149 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6150 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6151
6152 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6153 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6154 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6155 libraries unless it's really needed.
6156
6157 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6158 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6159 declarations (they differed!).

6173 [Richard Levitte]
6174
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006175 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making

Geoff Thorpe1df586b2000-10-26 20:02:33 +00006197 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6198 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6199 different shared library filenames on each system.

6204
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006205 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
Dr. Stephen Henson627ec352000-10-20 00:36:45 +00006206 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6207 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping

Richard Levitte567f17c2000-10-21 20:01:34 +00006212 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6213 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6214 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6215 binary backward compatibility.
6216 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6217 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6218 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6219 LDAP server.
6220 [Richard Levitte]
6221
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006222 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
Dr. Stephen Henson924046c2000-10-12 01:50:33 +00006223 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6224 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6225 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6226 this case.
6227 [Steve Henson]

6231
Bodo Möller85fb12d2002-04-12 13:45:29 +00006232 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
Dr. Stephen Henson8ca533e2000-10-06 11:51:47 +00006233 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6234 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional

6293 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6294 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6295

6299 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6300 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6301 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6302 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6303 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6304 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).

6549 [Richard Levitte]
6550
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006551 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6552 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6553 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6554
Bodo Möller3e06fb72002-10-11 17:56:34 +00006555 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6556 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6557
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006558 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6559 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6560 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6561 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6562 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6563 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6564 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6565 session cache.
6566
6567 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6568 using a local variable.
6569 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6570
6571 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6572 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6573 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6574
6575 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6576 [Richard Levitte]
6577
6578 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6579 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6580
6581 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6582 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6583 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6584
6585 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6586
6587 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6588 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6589 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6590 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6591 [Bodo Moeller]
6592
6593 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6594 present.
6595 [Steve Henson]
6596
6597 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6598 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6599 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6600 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6601 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6602
6603 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6604 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6605 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6606
6607 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6608 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6609 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6610
6611 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6612 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6613 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6614 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6615
6616 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6617 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6618 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6619 modules).
6620 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6621
6622 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6623 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6624 from 0.9.7.
6625 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6626
6627 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6628 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6629 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6630 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6631
6632 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6633 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6634 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6635 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6636
6637 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6638 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6639
6640 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6641 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6642 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6643 [Bodo Moeller]
6644
6645 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6646 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6647 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6648 become invalid.
6649 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6650
6651 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6652 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6653 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6654 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6655 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6656 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6657 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6658 [Bodo Moeller]
6659
6660 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6661 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6662 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6663 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6664
6665 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6666 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6667 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6668 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6669 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6670 the client will at least see that alert.
6671 [Bodo Moeller]
6672
6673 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6674 correctly.
6675 [Bodo Moeller]
6676
6677 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6678 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6679 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6680
6681 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02006682 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006683 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6684 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6685 HelloRequest.
6686
6687 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6688 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6689 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6690
6691 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6692 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02006693 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
Lutz Jänicke381a1462002-04-10 19:52:40 +00006694 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6695 may leak via logfiles.)
6696
6697 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6698 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6699 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6700 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6701 the legal range.
6702 [Bodo Moeller]
6703
6704 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6705 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6706 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6707
6708 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6709 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6710 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6711 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6712 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6713 [Bodo Moeller]
6714
6715 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6716 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6717
6718 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6719 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6720 followed by modular reduction.
6721 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6722
6723 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6724 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6725 [Bodo Moeller]
6726
6727 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6728 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6729 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6730 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6731 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6732
6733 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6734 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6735
6736 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6737 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6738 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6739
6740 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6741 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6742 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6743 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6744 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6745 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6746 automatically.
6747 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6748
6749 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6750 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6751 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6752 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6753 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6754
6755 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6756 [Andy Polyakov]
6757
6758 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6759 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6760 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6761 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6762 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6763 to allow the necessary settings.
6764 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6765
6766 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6767 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6768 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6769 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6770 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6771
6772 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6773 dh->length and always used
6774
6775 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6776
6777 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6778 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6779 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6780 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6781 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6782 dh->length.
6783
6784 So switch back to
6785
6786 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6787
6788 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6789 otherwise.
6790 [Bodo Moeller]
6791
6792 *) In
6793
6794 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6795 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6796 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6797 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6798
6799 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6800 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6801 always reject numbers >= n.
6802 [Bodo Moeller]
6803
6804 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6805 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6806 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6807 variable) is not atomic.
6808 [Bodo Moeller]
6809
6810 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6811 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6812 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6813 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6814
6815 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6816 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6817
6818 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6819 little-endian MIPS.
6820 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6821
6822 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6823 [Richard Levitte]
6824
6825 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6826
6827 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6828 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6829 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6830 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6831 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6832 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6833 to traverse all of 'state'.
6834
6835 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6836 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6837 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6838
6839 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6840 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6841
6842 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6843 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6844 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6845 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6846 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6847 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6848 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6849 further strengthens the PRNG.
6850 [Bodo Moeller]
6851
6852 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6853 [Andy Polyakov]
6854
6855 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6856 an error message in this case.
6857 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6858
6859 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6860 [Steve Henson]
6861
6862 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6863 positive and less than q.
6864 [Bodo Moeller]
6865
6866 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6867 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6868 that itself.
6869 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6870
6871 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6872 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6873 [Bodo Moeller]
6874
6875 *) Fix OAEP check.
6876 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6877
6878 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6879 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6880 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6881 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6882 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6883 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6884 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6885 paper.)
6886
6887 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6888 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6889 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6890 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6891
6892 Both problems are now fixed.
6893 [Bodo Moeller]
6894
6895 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6896 (previously it was 1024).
6897 [Bodo Moeller]
6898
6899 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6900 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6901 [Steve Henson]
6902
6903 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6904 [Steve Henson]
6905
6906 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6907 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6908 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6909 [Steve Henson]
6910
6911 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6912 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6913 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6914 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6915 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6916 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6917 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6918 environment variables.
6919
6920 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6921 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6922 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6923 [Bodo Moeller]
6924
6925 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6926 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6927 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6928 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6929 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6930 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6931 [Bodo Moeller]
6932
6933 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6934 versions of 'test'.
6935 [Bodo Moeller]
6936
6937 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6938
6939 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6940 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6941
6942 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6943 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6944 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6945 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6946 CygWin.
6947 [Richard Levitte]
6948
6949 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6950 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6951 amount of data available.
6952 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6953 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6954
6955 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6956 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6957 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6958 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6959 [Bodo Moeller]
6960
6961 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6962 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6963 and UnixWare.
6964 [Richard Levitte]
6965
6966 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6967 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6968 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6969 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6970 [Ulf Moeller]
6971
6972 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6973 [Andy Polyakov]
6974
6975 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6976 [Richard Levitte]
6977
6978 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6979 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6980 [Steve Henson]
6981 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6982
6983 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6984 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6985 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6986 (but broken) behaviour.
6987 [Steve Henson]
6988
6989 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6990 it when found.
6991 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6992
6993 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6994 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6995 [Bodo Moeller]
6996
6997 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6998 did not exist.
6999 [Bodo Moeller]
7000
7001 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7002 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7003
7004 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7005 [Richard Levitte]
7006
7007 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7008 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7009 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7010
7011 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7012 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7013 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7014 [Steve Henson]
7015
7016 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7017 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7018 [Ulf Moeller]
7019
7020 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7021 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7022
7023 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7024
7025 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7026
7027 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7028 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7029 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7030 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7031 [Bodo Moeller]
7032
7033 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7034 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7035
7036 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7037 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7038 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7039
7040 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7041 was empty.
7042 [Steve Henson]
7043 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7044
7045 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7046 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7047 but the code is actually correct.
7048 [Steve Henson]
7049
7050 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7051 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7052 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7053 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7054 and leaves the highest bit random.
7055 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7056
7057 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7058 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7059 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7060 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7061 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7062 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7063 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7064 [Bodo Moeller]
7065
7066 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7067 [Ulf Moeller]
7068
7069 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7070 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7071 [Steve Henson]
7072
7073 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7074 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7075 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7076 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7077 headers.
7078 [Richard Levitte]
7079
7080 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7081 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7082 and break the signature.
7083 [Steve Henson]
7084 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7085
7086 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7087 DH ciphersuites.
7088 [Steve Henson]
7089
7090 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7091 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7092 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7093 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7094 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7095 [Bodo Moeller]
7096
7097 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7098 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7099
7100 *) ./config script fixes.
7101 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7102
7103 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7104 [Bodo Moeller]
7105
7106 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7107 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7108 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7109 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7110 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7111
7112 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7113 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7114 [Bodo Moeller]
7115
7116 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7117 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7118 [Steve Henson]
7119
7120 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7121 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7122 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7123 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7124
7125 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7126 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7127
7128 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7129 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7130 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7131 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7132 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7133
7134 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7135 [Bodo Moeller]
7136
7137 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7138 [Ulf Möller]
7139
7140 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7141 [Ulf Möller]
7142
7143 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7144 [Bodo Moeller]
7145
7146 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7147 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7148 [Bodo Moeller]
7149
7150 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7151 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7152 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7153 result of the server certificate verification.)
7154 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7155
7156 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7157 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7158 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7159 [Bodo Moeller]
7160
7161 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7162 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7163 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7164 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7165 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7166 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7167 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7168 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7169 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7170 [Bodo Moeller]
7171
7172 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7173 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7174 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7175 happening the other way round.
7176 [Geoff Thorpe]
7177
7178 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7179 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7180 [Bodo Moeller]
7181
7182 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7183 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7184 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7185 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7186 [Richard Levitte]
7187
7188 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7189 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7190
7191 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7192
7193 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7194 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7195 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7196 that.
7197
7198 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7199
7200 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7201
7202 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7203 static ones.
7204 [Richard Levitte]
7205
Bodo Möller3a0afe12000-09-26 11:39:37 +00007206 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7207
7208 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7209 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7210 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7211 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7212 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7213
Richard Levitte88aeb642000-09-25 11:12:27 +00007214 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7215 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7216 matter what.
7217 [Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec5e85802000-09-24 17:31:37 +00007218
Bodo Möller81a6c782001-03-22 10:59:41 +00007219 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.

7221
Richard Levitte0e8f2fd2000-09-24 15:21:30 +00007222 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00007223
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00007224 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7225 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7226 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7227 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7228 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
Bodo Möller5a5accd2000-09-22 21:45:49 +00007229 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
Bodo Möllerf1192b72000-09-22 21:39:33 +00007230 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7231 by the Finished messages.
7232 [Bodo Moeller]
7233
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00007234 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7235 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7236
Dr. Stephen Hensondbba8902000-09-22 21:32:08 +00007237 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7238 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7239 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7240 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7241 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7242 appropriately.
7243 [Steve Henson]
7244
Dr. Stephen Henson6cffb202000-09-21 18:57:00 +00007245 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7246 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7247 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7248 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7249 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7250 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7251 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7252 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7253 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7254 together.
7255 [Steve Henson]
7256
Richard Levitte645749e2000-09-20 13:55:50 +00007257 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7258 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7259 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7260 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7261
7262 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7263 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7264 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7265 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7266 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7267 the answer.
7268
7269 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7270 been tested well enough.
7271 [Richard Levitte]
7272
Bodo Möllerfe035192000-09-19 23:25:00 +00007273 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00007274 it can return incorrect results.
Bodo Möllercb1fbf82000-09-19 23:06:14 +00007275 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7276 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
Bodo Möllera45bd292000-09-19 18:02:15 +00007277 [Bodo Moeller]
7278
Dr. Stephen Henson730e37e2000-09-18 12:30:57 +00007279 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7280 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7281 include zero length content when signing messages.
7282 [Steve Henson]
7283
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00007284 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7285 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00007286 [Bodo Möller]
Bodo Möller07fcf422000-09-17 01:23:53 +00007287
Richard Levitte0e05f542000-09-15 21:22:50 +00007288 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7289 [Richard Levitte]
7290
Ulf Möller1d84fd62000-09-14 18:37:53 +00007291 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7292 wrong sign.
7293 [Ulf Möller]
7294
Richard Levitte775bceb2000-09-14 15:28:44 +00007295 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7296 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7297 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7298 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7299 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7300 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7301 [Richard Levitte]
7302
Richard Levittecc995262000-09-14 13:11:56 +00007303 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7304 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7305
Richard Levitte72660f52000-09-14 12:48:48 +00007306 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7307 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7308
Ulf Möller5401c4c2000-09-13 01:48:05 +00007309 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7310 random number < q in the DSA library.

Bodo Möller54f10e62000-09-12 20:28:30 +00007313 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7314 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7315 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7316 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7317 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7318 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7319 just makes things more complicated.)
7320 [Bodo Moeller]
7321
Ben Laurie2959f292000-09-11 17:58:09 +00007322 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7323 from EGD.
7324 [Ben Laurie]
7325
Richard Levitte97d8e822000-09-10 14:45:19 +00007326 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7327 work better on such systems.
7328 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7329
Dr. Stephen Henson84b65342000-09-07 23:14:26 +00007330 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7331 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7332 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7333 [Steve Henson]
7334
Dr. Stephen Hensonf50c11c2000-09-07 17:42:25 +00007335 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7336 if there was more than one signature.
7337 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7338
Richard Levitte948d0122000-09-07 08:43:08 +00007339 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7340 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7341 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7342 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7343 [Richard Levitte]
7344
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007345 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7346 rather than always using the current time.
7347 [Steve Henson]
7348
7349 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7350 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7351 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7352 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7353 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7354 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007355
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007356 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7357 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007358
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007359 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007360
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007361 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7362 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7363 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7364 the same hash value.
7365
7366 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7367 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7368 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7369 with X509_STORE internally.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007370
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007371 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7372 exact match, rather than just subject name.
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007373
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007374 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7375 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7376 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7377 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7378 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7379 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7380 entirely (maybe later...).
Dr. Stephen Henson2f043892000-09-05 17:53:58 +00007381
Dr. Stephen Hensonbbb72002000-09-05 22:30:38 +00007382 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7383
7384 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7385 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7386 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7387 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7388 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7389 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7390 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7391 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7392
7393 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7394 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7395
7396 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7397 to customise the verify behaviour.

Dr. Stephen Henson34216c02000-09-05 13:27:57 +00007400 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7401 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7402 [Steve Henson]
7403
7404 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7405 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7406 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7407 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7408 request is improperly encoded.
7409 [Steve Henson]
7410
Bodo Mölleraffadbe2000-09-04 15:47:17 +00007411 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7412 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7413 BIO_write(b, ...).
Bodo Möller22c7ea42000-09-05 12:46:10 +00007414
7415 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.

7417
Bodo Möllerbbb8de02000-09-04 15:34:43 +00007418 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7419 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7420 words set to zero.)
7421 [Bodo Moeller]
7422
7423 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7424 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7425 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7426 [Bodo Moeller]
7427
Dr. Stephen Hensonbd08a2b2000-09-03 23:13:48 +00007428 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7429 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7430 BIO/fp routines also added.
7431 [Steve Henson]
7432
Bodo Möllera545c6f2000-09-01 09:54:25 +00007433 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7434 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7435
Ben Laurie7049ef52000-08-30 18:14:28 +00007436 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7437 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7438 demos/state_machine.
7439 [Ben Laurie]
7440
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00007441 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7442 generation and verification.
7443 [Steve Henson]
7444
Dr. Stephen Hensond096b522000-08-22 22:20:25 +00007445 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7446 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7447 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7448 encode and decode it manually.
7449 [Steve Henson]
7450
Dr. Stephen Henson7df1c722000-08-30 16:14:29 +00007451 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
Dr. Stephen Henson469938c2000-08-22 12:54:21 +00007452 compile under VC++.
7453 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7454
7455 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7456 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7457 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7458 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7459
Dr. Stephen Hensoneaa28182000-08-21 22:02:23 +00007460 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7461 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7462 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7463 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7464 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7465 [Steve Henson]
7466
Richard Levittee6629832000-08-18 09:36:59 +00007467 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7468 [Richard Levitte]
7469
Richard Levitte6fd5a042000-08-17 23:27:03 +00007470 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7471 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7472 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7473
7474 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7475 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7476 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7477 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7478 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7479 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7480 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7481 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7482
7483 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7484 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7485
7486 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7487
7488 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7489 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7490 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7491
7492 [Richard Levitte]
7493
Richard Levitte368f8552000-08-17 10:25:46 +00007494 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7495 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7496 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7497 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7498 [Richard Levitte]
7499
Richard Levitte30094582000-08-14 14:05:53 +00007500 *) MD4 implemented.
Richard Levittebb531a02000-08-18 09:50:41 +00007501 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
Richard Levitte30094582000-08-14 14:05:53 +00007502
Richard Levitte88364bc2000-08-11 19:43:20 +00007503 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7504 [Richard Levitte]
7505
Dr. Stephen Hensond4fbe312000-08-06 18:43:32 +00007506 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7507 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7508 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7509 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7510 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7511 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7512 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7513 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7514 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7515 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7516 short or long names are found.
7517 [Steve Henson]
7518
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00007519 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
Ulf Möllerd49da3a2000-09-23 05:17:40 +00007520 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
Dr. Stephen Henson2d978cb2000-08-04 00:01:39 +00007521
Bodo Mölleraa826d82000-07-29 19:27:20 +00007522 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7523 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7524 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7525 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7526
Bodo Möller37569e62000-07-29 18:50:41 +00007527 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7528 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7529 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7530 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7531 [Bodo Moeller]
7532
Richard Levitteca1e4652000-07-27 17:28:25 +00007533 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7534 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7535 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7536 [Richard Levitte]
7537
Dr. Stephen Hensona6575462000-07-28 01:58:15 +00007538 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7539 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7540 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7541 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7542 to allow the various flags to be set.
7543 [Steve Henson]
7544
Dr. Stephen Henson284ef5f2000-07-26 01:18:37 +00007545 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7546 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7547 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7548 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7549 dates to be checked.
7550 [Steve Henson]
7551
7552 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7553 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7554 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7555 [Steve Henson]
7556
7557 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7558 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7559 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7560 [Steve Henson]
7561
Bodo Möllerfa729132000-07-21 15:17:04 +00007562 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7563 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7564 [Bodo Moeller]
7565
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +00007566 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7567 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7568 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7569 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7570 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
Richard Levitte6bc847e2001-08-10 15:26:21 +00007571 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
Richard Levitteb436a982000-07-21 15:08:53 +00007572 [Richard Levitte]
7573
Ulf Möllerc0722722000-07-19 21:35:35 +00007574 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7575 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7576 Random Numbers.
7577 [Ulf Möller]
7578
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd13f0e2000-07-12 23:55:30 +00007579 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7580 DSA key.
7581 [Steve Henson]
7582
Dr. Stephen Henson094fe662000-07-10 18:33:05 +00007583 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7584 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7585 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7586 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7587 form signing output easier to verify.
7588 [Steve Henson]
7589
7590 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7591 [Steve Henson]
7592
Dr. Stephen Hensona338e212000-07-07 13:24:36 +00007593 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7594 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7595 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7596 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7597 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7598 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7599 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7600 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7601 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7602 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7603 [Steve Henson]
7604
Richard Levitted5870bb2000-07-05 02:52:47 +00007605 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7606
7607 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7608 the syntax given in objects.README.
7609 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7610 obj_mac.h.
7611 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7612 obj_mac.h.
7613
7614 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7615 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7616 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7617 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7618 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7619 consistent name changes.
7620 [Richard Levitte]
7621
Bodo Möller1f4643a2000-06-23 18:00:16 +00007622 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7623 [Bodo Moeller]
7624
Richard Levittefb0b8442000-06-22 09:19:59 +00007625 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
Richard Levitte1023b122000-06-22 21:17:46 +00007626 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7627 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7628 environment variable, or the default random state file.

7630
Dr. Stephen Henson4dd45352000-06-22 00:34:27 +00007631 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7632 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7633 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7634 of safestack.h .
7635 [Steve Henson]
7636
Dr. Stephen Henson13083212000-06-21 02:25:30 +00007637 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7638 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7639 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7640 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7641 [Steve Henson]
7642
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00007643 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7644 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7645 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7646 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7647 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7648 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7649 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7650 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7651 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
Dr. Stephen Henson7ef82062000-06-20 18:45:28 +00007652 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7653 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
Dr. Stephen Henson3aceb942000-06-16 23:29:26 +00007654 [Steve Henson]
7655
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00007656 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7657 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7658 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02007659 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
Dr. Stephen Hensond3ed8ce2000-06-15 23:48:05 +00007660 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7661 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7662 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7663 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7664 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7665 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7666 [Steve Henson]
7667
Dr. Stephen Hensone366f2b2000-06-11 15:43:17 +00007668 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7669 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7670 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7671 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7672
Dr. Stephen Hensona91dedc2000-06-11 12:18:15 +00007673 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7674 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7675 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7676 omit any duplicate addresses.
7677 [Steve Henson]
7678
Bodo Möllerdc434bb2000-06-08 20:26:03 +00007679 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7680 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7681 [Bodo Moeller]
7682
7683 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7684 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7685 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7686 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7687 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7688 [Bodo Moeller]
7689
Bodo Möller947b3b82000-06-08 15:01:14 +00007690 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7691 software:
7692 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7693 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7694 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7695 Free => OPENSSL_free
7696 [Richard Levitte]
7697
Bodo Möller482a9d42000-06-10 12:05:52 +00007698 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7699 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).

7701
Ulf Möllerbe5d92e2000-06-03 23:23:10 +00007702 *) CygWin32 support.
7703 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7704
Geoff Thorpee41c8d62000-06-01 05:13:52 +00007705 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7706 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7707 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7708 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7709 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7710 approach.
7711 [Geoff Thorpe]
7712
Geoff Thorpeccd86b62000-06-01 02:36:58 +00007713 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7714 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7715 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7716 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7717 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7718 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7719 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7720 [Geoff Thorpe]
7721
Bodo Möller361ee972000-05-30 21:44:36 +00007722 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7723 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7724 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7725 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7726 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7727 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7728 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7729 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7730 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7731 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7732 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7733 [Bodo Moeller]
7734
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00007735 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7736 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7737 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7738 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7739 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7740
7741 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7742 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7743 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7744 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7745 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7746
7747 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7748 ciphers.
7749
7750 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00007751 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7752 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7753 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7754
Dr. Stephen Henson49528752000-05-30 18:26:22 +00007755 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7756
Dr. Stephen Henson57ae2e22000-05-30 02:10:57 +00007757 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms

Dr. Stephen Henson360370d2000-05-28 12:44:46 +00007760 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7761 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7762 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7763 flags.
Dr. Stephen Hensonbe06a932000-05-27 12:38:43 +00007764
7765 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7766 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7767 any installed hardware versions can.

7769
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007770 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7771 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7772 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7773 number.
7774 [Bodo Moeller]
7775
7776 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7777 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7778 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7779 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7780 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7781
Dr. Stephen Hensonb4b41f42000-05-24 13:09:59 +00007782 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7783 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7784 [Steve Henson]
7785
Richard Levitte6d7cce42000-05-18 21:25:48 +00007786 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7787 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7788 [Richard Levitte]
7789
Dr. Stephen Henson439df502000-05-18 00:33:00 +00007790 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7791 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7792 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7793 features.
7794 [Steve Henson]
7795
Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00007796 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007797 [Ulf Möller]
Ulf Möller0e1c0612000-05-15 22:54:43 +00007798
Dr. Stephen Henson0cb957a2000-05-04 23:03:49 +00007799 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7800 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7801 but no ssl client purpose.
7802 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7803
Dr. Stephen Hensona331a302000-05-04 00:08:35 +00007804 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7805 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7806 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7807 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7808 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7809 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7810 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7811 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7812 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7813 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7814 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7815 [Steve Henson]
7816
Bodo Möller316e6a62000-05-02 20:29:03 +00007817 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7818 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7819 be obtained from the error queue.
7820 [Bodo Moeller]
7821
Bodo Möllerdcba2532000-04-29 23:58:05 +00007822 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7823 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7824 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7825 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7826 [Bodo Moeller]
7827
Ulf Möller39736282000-04-27 15:06:26 +00007828 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7829 [Ulf Möller]
7830
Geoff Thorpedeb4d502000-04-20 06:44:18 +00007831 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7832 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7833 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7834 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7835 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7836 [Geoff Thorpe]
7837
Geoff Thorpeb9e63912000-04-19 21:45:17 +00007838 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7839 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7840 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7841 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7842 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7843 [Geoff Thorpe]
7844
Bodo Möllere5c84d52000-04-14 23:36:15 +00007845 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7846 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7847 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7848 may not be NULL.
7849 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7850
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007851 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7852 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7853 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7854 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7855 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7856 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7857 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7858 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7859 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7860 or "the configuration storage API"...
7861
7862 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7863
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007864 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7865 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007866
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007867 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007868
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00007869 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
Richard Levittea9831302000-04-10 15:48:16 +00007870
7871 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7872 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7873 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7874 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7875 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7876 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7877 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7878
7879 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7880 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7881 [Richard Levitte]
7882
Bodo Möller1d90f282000-04-06 22:33:14 +00007883 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7884 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7885 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7886 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7887 [Bodo Moeller]
7888
Geoff Thorpe6ef4d9d2000-04-04 22:49:27 +00007889 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7890 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7891 them in a portable way.
7892 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
Richard Levittec90341a2000-04-01 11:24:27 +00007893
Richard Levitte5e615802000-04-01 11:15:15 +00007894 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7895
7896 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
Bodo Möller865874f2000-02-28 18:03:16 +00007897
Bodo Möllercf194c12000-03-30 08:12:35 +00007898 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7899 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7900
Bodo Möller3bc90f22000-03-27 18:10:08 +00007901 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7902 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7903 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7904 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7905
Dr. Stephen Hensonb475baf2000-03-27 00:53:27 +00007906 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7907 was larger than the MD block size.
7908 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7909
Dr. Stephen Hensone77066e2000-03-22 13:50:23 +00007910 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7911 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7912 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7913 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7914 components.
7915 [Steve Henson]
7916
Ulf Möller7af48162000-03-19 02:06:37 +00007917 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7918 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7919 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7920
Dr. Stephen Henson80870562000-03-14 03:29:57 +00007921 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7922 discouraged.
7923 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7924
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00007925 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7926 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
Bodo Möllerdf1ff3f2000-03-13 21:01:05 +00007927 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00007928 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
Bodo Möller46c46472000-03-13 20:31:46 +00007929 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7930 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7931
7932 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7933 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
Bodo Möller7694ddc2000-03-13 20:48:23 +00007934
7935 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7936 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)

7938
Bodo Möller65b002f2000-03-13 19:24:39 +00007939 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7940 [Bodo Moeller]
7941
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00007942 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7943 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7944 its own key.
7945 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7946 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02007947 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7948 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
Bodo Möllere11f0de2000-03-13 17:07:04 +00007949 [Bodo Moeller]
7950
Bodo Möller2d5e4492000-03-10 13:49:02 +00007951 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7952 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7953 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7954 does not suppress any output.
7955 [Richard Levitte]
7956
Bodo Möllerdaf4e532000-03-07 15:10:08 +00007957 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
Dr. Stephen Henson068fdce2000-03-07 14:04:29 +00007958 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7959 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7960 with all the associated security issues.
7961
7962 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7963 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7964 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7965 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7966 use the value in the default purpose.
7967 [Steve Henson]
7968
Dr. Stephen Henson48fe0ee2000-03-07 01:03:33 +00007969 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7970 and fix a memory leak.
7971 [Steve Henson]
7972
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00007973 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7974 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02007975 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
Bodo Möller59fc2b02000-03-05 00:19:36 +00007976 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7977 [Bodo Moeller]
7978
Bodo Möller0a150c52000-03-04 01:36:53 +00007979 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7980 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7981 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7982 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7983 [Bodo Moeller]
7984
Bodo Möller41918452000-03-03 22:18:19 +00007985 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7986 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7987 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7988 [Bodo Moeller]
7989
7990 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7991 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7992 [Bodo Moeller]
7993
Dr. Stephen Hensond9c88a32000-03-03 00:06:40 +00007994 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7995 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7996 which was free.
7997 [Steve Henson]
7998
Bodo Möller84d14402000-03-02 22:44:55 +00007999 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8000 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8001 [Bodo Moeller]
8002
Bodo Möller5eb8ca42000-03-02 14:34:58 +00008003 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8004 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8005 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8006 [Bodo Moeller]
8007
Ulf Möller7a2dfc22000-03-01 19:07:58 +00008008 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8009 number generation fails.
8010 [Bodo Moeller]
8011
Bodo Möller55f7d652000-03-01 07:57:25 +00008012 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8013 [Bodo Moeller]
8014
Ralf S. Engelschall010712f2000-02-29 15:29:02 +00008015 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64

8017
Ulf Möller2da0c112000-02-28 19:16:41 +00008018 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8019 [Ulf Möller]
8020
Ulf Möllera4709b32000-02-28 19:14:46 +00008021 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8022 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]

Richard Levitte74cdf6f2000-02-28 11:59:02 +00008027 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
Ulf Möller38e33ce2000-01-27 19:31:26 +00008028
Dr. Stephen Henson82b93182000-02-28 14:11:19 +00008029 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8030 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8031 [Steve Henson]
8032
Dr. Stephen Henson587bb0e2000-02-27 17:34:30 +00008033 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.

8035
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00008036 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
Andy Polyakova5770be2000-02-27 02:34:37 +00008037 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
Ulf Möller688938f2000-02-27 02:05:39 +00008038 [Ulf Möller]
8039
Dr. Stephen Henson94de0412000-02-27 01:15:25 +00008040 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8041 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8042 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8043 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8044 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8045 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8046
Dr. Stephen Henson02021972000-02-26 19:25:31 +00008047 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8048 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8049 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8050 for example.
8051 [Steve Henson]
8052
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00008053 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8054 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8055 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8056 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8057 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8058 counter, some don't.)
8059 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8060 counters or duplicate objects.
Dr. Stephen Hensonc7cb16a2000-02-26 01:55:33 +00008061 [Steve Henson]
8062
Dr. Stephen Hensonfbb41ae2000-02-25 00:23:48 +00008063 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8064 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8065 [Steve Henson]

8070
Ulf Möller4ec2d4d2000-02-24 02:51:47 +00008071 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8072 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8073 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE

8075 [Ulf Möller]
8076
Dr. Stephen Henson3142c862000-02-23 01:11:01 +00008077 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8078 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8079 [Steve Henson]
8080
8081 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8082 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8083 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8084 cipher list.

Dr. Stephen Henson72b60352000-02-22 02:59:26 +00008087 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with

Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00008092 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8093 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8094 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8095 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8096 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8097 should work without changes.

Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00008099
8100 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8101 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8102 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8103 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8104 must be defined. E.g.,
8105 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES

8117 [Steve Henson]
8118
Dr. Stephen Henson8a208cb2000-02-18 00:54:21 +00008119 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8120 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8121 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8122 request header lines. Some software needs this.

8127 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8128 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8129 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8130 is prompted for as usual.

8182
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf57d842000-02-04 14:01:38 +00008183 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8184 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8185 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8186 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8187 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8188 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8189 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.

Bodo Möllera87030a2000-01-30 02:23:03 +00008207 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8208 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8209 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8210 has already seen).
8211 [Bodo Moeller]
8212
8213 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8214 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8215
8216 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8217 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8218 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8219 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8220 generation becomes much faster.
8221
8222 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
Bodo Möllercdd43b52000-01-30 11:05:39 +00008223 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8224 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8225 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8226 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8227 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8228 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8229 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8230 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8231 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).

8236 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8237 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
Bodo Möller1baa9492000-01-30 03:32:28 +00008238 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the

8297 wrong.
8298
8299 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8300 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8301 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).

8303 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8304 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric

8306 an error is flagged.

Dr. Stephen Henson77b47b92000-01-19 01:02:13 +00008324 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8325 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8326 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8327 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8328 instead.
8329
8330 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8331 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8332 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8333 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality

Bodo Möller09837602000-01-13 21:20:26 +00008343 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8344 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
Ulf Möller373b5752000-01-16 15:58:17 +00008345 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
Bodo Möller853f7572000-02-19 15:22:53 +00008346 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8347 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate

8360
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00008361 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain

Dr. Stephen Henson35f48502000-01-07 00:55:54 +00008381 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8382 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8383 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8384 international characters are used.
8385
8386 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8387 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8388 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8389 in ASN1 order.
8390 [Steve Henson]
8391
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00008392 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation

8394 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8395 request.
8396
8397 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8398 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8399 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8400 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008401 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00008402 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8403
8404 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8405 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8406 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008407 be handled by the string table functions.
Dr. Stephen Hensonb38f9f62000-01-06 01:26:48 +00008408
8409 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8410 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8411 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8412 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8413 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8414 types at all.
8415 [Steve Henson]
8416
Bodo Möllerca031092000-01-06 01:19:17 +00008417 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8418 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8419 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8420 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8421 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8422
8423 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8424 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8425 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8426 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.

8428
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00008429 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8430 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008431 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
Andy Polyakovbdf5e182000-01-02 20:46:58 +00008432 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8433 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8434 SHA1.
8435 [Andy Polyakov]
8436
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00008437 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8438 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8439 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8440 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8441 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8442 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8443 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8444 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8445
8446 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8447 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
Bodo Möller745c70e2000-02-21 10:16:30 +00008448 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
Dr. Stephen Henson3d14b9d2000-01-02 18:52:58 +00008449 [Steve Henson]
8450
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00008451 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8452 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8453 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8454 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8455 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8456 support to pkcs8 application.
8457 [Steve Henson]
8458
Bodo Möller47134b71999-12-29 17:43:03 +00008459 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8460 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8461 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8462 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8463 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8464 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8465 [Bodo Moeller]
8466
Bodo Möller45fd4db1999-12-29 14:29:32 +00008467 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8468 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8469 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8470 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8471 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8472 consistency.
8473 [Bodo Moeller]
8474
Dr. Stephen Hensonf45f40f1999-12-29 02:59:18 +00008475 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8476 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8477 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8478 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8479 example.
8480 [Steve Henson]
8481
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00008482 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8483 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8484 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8485 and any application specific purposes.
8486
8487 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8488 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8489 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8490 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
Dr. Stephen Henson20432ea2000-01-01 16:42:49 +00008491 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
Dr. Stephen Henson6447cce1999-12-29 00:40:28 +00008492 if the certificate is self signed.
8493 [Steve Henson]
8494
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00008495 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8496 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8497 [Steve Henson]
8498
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00008499 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8500 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
Dr. Stephen Hensone6f3c581999-12-26 19:20:03 +00008501 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
Dr. Stephen Henson36217a91999-12-24 23:53:57 +00008502 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8503 [Steve Henson]
8504
Dr. Stephen Henson525f51f1999-12-23 02:02:42 +00008505 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8506 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8507 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8508 Update documentation.
8509 [Steve Henson]
8510
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00008511 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8512 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008513 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
Dr. Stephen Hensone76f9351999-12-22 01:39:23 +00008514 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8515 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8516 [Steve Henson]
8517
Andy Polyakov099f1b31999-12-19 16:17:45 +00008518 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8519 for details.
8520 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8521
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00008522 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8523 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8524 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00008525 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8526 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8527 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
Richard Levittede73e392000-01-11 22:32:37 +00008528 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8529 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8530 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8531 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
Richard Levitted8df48a1999-12-18 01:14:39 +00008532
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008533 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8534
Bodo Möller2c05c492000-05-25 09:50:40 +00008535 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8536 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8537 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8538 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8539 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008540
8541 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8542 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00008543 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8544 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8545 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8546 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8547 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8548 request additional information:
8549 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8550 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
Richard Levittef3a2a041999-12-18 02:34:37 +00008551
8552 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8553 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8554 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8555 options.
8556
8557 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8558 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8559
8560 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8561 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8562 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8563
8564 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
Richard Levittecbfa4c32000-01-11 22:16:12 +00008565 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
Richard Levitte9ac42ed1999-12-17 12:56:24 +00008566
Dr. Stephen Hensonb2166641999-12-11 20:04:06 +00008567 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8568 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8569 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8570 algorithm.
8571 [Steve Henson]
8572
Dr. Stephen Hensond8223ef1999-12-10 13:46:48 +00008573 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8574 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8575 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8576
Dr. Stephen Henson5a9a4b21999-12-05 00:40:59 +00008577 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8578 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8579 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8580 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8581 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8582 included in OpenSSL.
8583 [Steve Henson]
8584
Bodo Möllercddfe781999-12-03 20:24:21 +00008585 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8586 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8587 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8588 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8589 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8590 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8591 [Bodo Moeller]
8592
Dr. Stephen Henson21131f01999-12-03 03:46:18 +00008593 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8594 PKCS12 structure.
8595 [Steve Henson]
8596
Dr. Stephen Hensondd413411999-12-02 02:33:56 +00008597 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8598 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8599 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8600 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8601 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8602 structure.
8603 [Steve Henson]
8604
8605 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8606 need initialising.
8607 [Steve Henson]
8608
Dr. Stephen Henson08cba611999-12-01 01:49:46 +00008609 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8610 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8611 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8612 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8613 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8614 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8615 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8616 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8617 be maintained manually.
8618
8619 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8620 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8621 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8622 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8623 work because people forget to call this function]
8624 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8625 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8626 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8627 [Steve Henson]
8628
Ben Lauriefea9afb1999-11-30 20:15:19 +00008629 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8630 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8631 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8632 should be discouraged from doing it.
8633 [Ben Laurie]
8634
Dr. Stephen Henson98682321999-11-27 01:14:04 +00008635 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8636 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8637 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8638 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8639 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8640 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8641 [Steve Henson]
8642
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008643 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8644 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8645 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008646
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008647 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00008648 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8649 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
Dr. Stephen Henson51630a31999-11-27 19:43:10 +00008650
8651 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8652 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8653 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8654 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8655 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8656 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00008657
8658 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8659 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8660 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008661
Dr. Stephen Hensonbb7cd4e1999-11-29 22:35:00 +00008662 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8663 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8664 and vice versa.
8665
Dr. Stephen Hensond4cec6a1999-11-26 00:27:07 +00008666 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8667 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8668 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8669 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
Dr. Stephen Henson11262391999-11-24 01:31:49 +00008670 [Steve Henson]
8671
8672 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
Dr. Stephen Henson6d3724d1999-11-23 18:50:28 +00008673 [Steve Henson]
8674
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008675 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8676 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8677 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8678 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8679 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008680 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008681 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8682 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8683 keys so we should be OK.
8684
8685 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8686 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8687 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8688 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8689 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8690 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008691 stay in the name of compatibility.
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008692
8693 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8694 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8695 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8696
8697 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
Bodo Möller6d0d5432000-02-26 08:36:46 +00008698 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8699 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8700 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8701 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8702 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8703 supplied key).
Dr. Stephen Henson52664f51999-11-21 22:28:31 +00008704 [Steve Henson]
8705
8706 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8707 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8708 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8709 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8710 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8711 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8712 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8713 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8714 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8715 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8716 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8717 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8718 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8719 [Steve Henson]
8720
Dr. Stephen Hensona716d721999-11-19 02:19:58 +00008721 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8722 [Steve Henson]
8723
Dr. Stephen Hensonf76d8c41999-11-17 01:20:29 +00008724 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8725 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8726 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8727 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8728 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8729 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8730 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8731 openssl verify ss.pem
8732 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8733 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8734 is OK.
8735 [Steve Henson]
8736
Bodo Möllerb1fe6ca1999-11-16 23:15:41 +00008737 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8738 (and add it to external session representation).
8739 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8740 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8741 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8742 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8743 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8744 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8745 security holes.

8747
Dr. Stephen Henson91895a51999-11-16 14:54:50 +00008748 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8749 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8750 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.

Dr. Stephen Hensonfd699ac1999-11-16 02:49:25 +00008753 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8754 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8755 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8756 [Steve Henson]
8757
Dr. Stephen Hensone947f391999-11-16 00:56:03 +00008758 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8759 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8760 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8761 code.
8762 [Steve Henson]
8763
Bodo Möller07e6dbd2000-01-28 21:26:30 +00008764 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8765 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
Mark J. Coxb7cfcfb1999-11-15 16:31:31 +00008766 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8767
Dr. Stephen Henson06556a11999-11-14 23:10:50 +00008768 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8769 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8770 certificate auxiliary information.
8771 [Steve Henson]
8772
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00008773 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8774 the 'enc' command.
8775 [Steve Henson]
8776
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00008777 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8778 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00008779 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8780 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8781 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8782 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8783 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
Richard Levitte71d75261999-11-12 03:12:46 +00008784 [Richard Levitte]
8785
Dr. Stephen Hensona0e9f521999-11-14 03:23:17 +00008786 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
Dr. Stephen Henson954ef7e1999-11-12 01:42:25 +00008787 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8788 [Steve Henson]
8789
Dr. Stephen Hensonaf298111999-11-11 18:41:31 +00008790 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8791 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8792 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8793 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8794 [Steve Henson]
8795
Dr. Stephen Hensonaba3e651999-11-10 02:52:17 +00008796 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8797 [Steve Henson]
8798
Dr. Stephen Hensona0ad17b1999-11-08 13:58:08 +00008799 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8800 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8801 [Steve Henson]
8802
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00008803 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8804 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8805 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8806 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8807 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008808 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
Dr. Stephen Hensonce1b4fe1999-11-04 00:45:35 +00008809 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8810 using the new 'x509' options.
8811
8812 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8813 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8814 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8815 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8816 for all purposes.
8817 [Steve Henson]
8818
Bodo Möllera8733562000-01-13 21:10:43 +00008819 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8820 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8821 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8822 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8823 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
Mark J. Coxce2c95b1999-11-03 14:10:10 +00008824 [Mark Cox]
8825
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00008826 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8827 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8828 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8829 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8830 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00008831 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
Dr. Stephen Henson9716a8f1999-10-29 13:06:25 +00008832 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8833 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8834 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8835 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8836 [Steve Henson]
8837
Dr. Stephen Henson74400f71999-10-27 00:15:11 +00008838 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8839 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8840 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8841 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8842 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8843 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8844 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8845 [Steve Henson]
8846
8847 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8848 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8849 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8850 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8851 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8852 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8853 openssl.cnf for more info.
8854 [Steve Henson]
8855
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00008856 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
Bodo Möller62ac2931999-10-26 16:26:48 +00008857 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
Bodo Möllerc1e744b1999-10-26 14:49:12 +00008858 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8859 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8860 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8861 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8862 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8863 md should be large enough anyway.
8864 [Bodo Moeller]
8865
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008866 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8867 for handling the random seed file.
8868
8869 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8870 ca,
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008871 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008872 s_client,
8873 s_server,
8874 x509 (when signing).
8875 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8876 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
Bodo Möller99e87561999-10-26 11:19:42 +00008877 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008878
8879 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008880 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008881 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
Bodo Möller78baa171999-12-22 16:10:44 +00008882 that support '-rand'.
Bodo Möllera31011e1999-10-26 01:56:29 +00008883 [Bodo Moeller]
8884
8885 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8886 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8887 [Bodo Moeller]
8888
8889 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8890 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8891 [Bill Perry]
8892
Dr. Stephen Henson462f79e1999-10-21 13:20:49 +00008893 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8894 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8895 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8896 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8897 is suitable.
8898 [Steve Henson]
8899
Dr. Stephen Henson08e9c1a1999-10-20 01:50:23 +00008900 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8901 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8902 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8903 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8904 [Steve Henson]
8905
Dr. Stephen Henson673b1021999-10-13 01:11:56 +00008906 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8907 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8908 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8909 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8910 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8911 print out all the purposes.
8912 [Steve Henson]
8913
Dr. Stephen Henson56a3fec1999-10-11 01:30:04 +00008914 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8915 functions.
8916 [Steve Henson]
8917
Dr. Stephen Henson4654ef91999-10-09 02:54:10 +00008918 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8919 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8920 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8921 single function call.
8922 [Steve Henson]
8923
Andy Polyakov7e102e21999-10-07 12:10:26 +00008924 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8925 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8926 [Andy Polyakov]
8927
Dr. Stephen Hensond71c6bc1999-10-05 13:10:21 +00008928 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8929 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8930 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8931 [Steve Henson]
8932
Dr. Stephen Henson2d681b71999-10-05 12:57:50 +00008933 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8934 when producing the local key id.
8935 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8936
Dr. Stephen Henson3908cdf1999-10-04 23:56:06 +00008937 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8938 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8939 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8940 "server.pem".
8941 [Steve Henson]
8942
Dr. Stephen Henson3ea23631999-10-04 21:17:47 +00008943 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8944 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8945 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8946 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8947 [Steve Henson]
8948
Dr. Stephen Henson393f2c61999-10-04 12:08:59 +00008949 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8950 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8951 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8952 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8953
8954 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8955 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8956 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8957 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8958
Dr. Stephen Henson4579dd51999-10-02 13:33:06 +00008959 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8960 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8961 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8962 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8963 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8964 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8965 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8966 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8967 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8968 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8969 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8970 trivial: move one line.
8971 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8972
Dr. Stephen Henson06f45361999-09-20 22:09:17 +00008973 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8974 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8975 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8976 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8977 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8978 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8979 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8980 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8981 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8982 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8983 with an event loop for example.
8984 [Steve Henson]
8985
Dr. Stephen Henson1c800191999-09-18 22:37:44 +00008986 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8987 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8988 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8989 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8990 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8991 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8992 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8993 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8994 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8995 [Steve Henson]
8996
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00008997 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8998 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8999 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00009000 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
Dr. Stephen Henson090d8481999-09-18 01:42:02 +00009001 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9002 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9003 [Steve Henson]
9004
Bodo Möller396f6311999-09-08 21:58:13 +00009005 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9006 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9007 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9008 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9009
Dr. Stephen Henson4a61a641999-09-08 18:02:25 +00009010 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9011 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9012 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9013 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9014 key generation.
9015 [Steve Henson]
9016
Bodo Möllerc1082a91999-09-07 21:37:09 +00009017 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
Bodo Möller6f7af151999-09-10 14:03:21 +00009018 (still largely untested)

9020
Dr. Stephen Hensona785abc1999-09-07 12:16:29 +00009021 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9022 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9023 [Steve Henson]
9024
Dr. Stephen Hensonaef838f1999-09-04 17:19:55 +00009025 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9026 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9027 [Steve Henson]
9028
Bodo Möller074309b1999-09-03 16:33:11 +00009029 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9030 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9031 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9032 [Bodo Moeller]
9033
Dr. Stephen Henson8ce97161999-09-03 01:08:34 +00009034 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9035 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9036 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9037 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9038 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9039 [Steve Henson]
9040
Andy Polyakov2d4287d1999-08-28 13:18:25 +00009041 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9042 [Andy Polyakov]
9043
Dr. Stephen Henson87a25f91999-08-27 00:08:17 +00009044 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9045 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9046 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9047 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9048 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9049 in ca.
9050 [Steve Henson]
9051
Dr. Stephen Hensonf9150e51999-08-25 23:18:23 +00009052 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9053 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9054 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9055 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9056 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9057 [Steve Henson]
9058
Dr. Stephen Hensonc79b16e1999-08-25 16:59:26 +00009059 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9060 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9061 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9062 are otherwise ignored at present.
9063 [Steve Henson]
9064
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00009065 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
Bodo Möller0f7e6fe1999-09-24 20:24:24 +00009066 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
Dr. Stephen Henson7b65c321999-08-24 13:21:35 +00009067 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9068 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9069 copied until the next read.
9070 [Steve Henson]
9071
Dr. Stephen Henson13066ce1999-08-23 23:11:32 +00009072 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9073 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9074 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9075 [Steve Henson]
9076
Dr. Stephen Hensonc0711f71999-08-22 17:57:38 +00009077 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9078 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9079 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9080 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9081 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9082 associated functions.
9083 [Steve Henson]
9084
Dr. Stephen Henson84847211999-08-19 13:07:43 +00009085 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9086 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9087 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9088 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9089 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9090 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9091 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9092 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9093 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
Ulf Möller0f583f62000-01-07 03:17:47 +00009094 memory BIOs.

9096
Bodo Möllerde1915e1999-08-18 17:14:42 +00009097 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9098 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9099 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02009100 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.

9102
Dr. Stephen Hensonc6c34501999-08-17 12:58:01 +00009103 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9104 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9105 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9106 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9107 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9108 functionality.
9109 [Steve Henson]
9110
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00009111 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9112 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9113 under Win32.
9114 [Steve Henson]
9115
Dr. Stephen Henson87c49f61999-08-09 22:38:05 +00009116 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
Dr. Stephen Hensonfd520571999-08-11 13:08:58 +00009117 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9118 extensions to be obtained and added.

9120
Bodo Möller1b1a6e71999-08-09 13:01:48 +00009121 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9122 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9123 [Bodo Moeller]
9124
Bodo Möller9a577e21999-08-08 22:41:24 +00009125 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]

Ralf S. Engelschall96395151999-08-08 10:15:43 +00009130 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9131 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9132
Dr. Stephen Hensoned7f60f1999-08-06 21:47:09 +00009133 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9134 program.
9135 [Steve Henson]
9136
Bodo Möller48c843c1999-08-05 11:50:18 +00009137 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9138 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9139 DH parameters contain its length).
9140
9141 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9142 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9143 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9144 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9145 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9146 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9147 utter importance to use
9148 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9149 or
9150 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9151 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9152 attacks may become possible!
9153 [Bodo Moeller]
9154
9155 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9156 [Bodo Moeller]
9157
Dr. Stephen Henson922180d1999-07-30 01:12:46 +00009158 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9159 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9160 [Steve Henson]
9161
Dr. Stephen Henson3e3d2ea1999-07-27 22:22:58 +00009162 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9163 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9164 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9165 or long name.
9166 [Steve Henson]
9167
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00009168 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9169 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9170 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9171 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00009172 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9173 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9174 private key operations.
Dr. Stephen Henson770d19b1999-07-27 21:58:08 +00009175 [Steve Henson]
9176
Andy Polyakova0618e31999-07-25 15:13:49 +00009177 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9178 [Andy Polyakov]
9179
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00009180 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9181 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9182 to
9183 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9184 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9185 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9186 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9187 the password callback is called.
Bodo Möller96c22011999-09-21 13:33:15 +00009188 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
Bodo Möller74678cc1999-07-21 20:57:16 +00009189
9190 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9191
9192 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9193 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9194 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9195 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9196 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9197 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9198 this will work.
Bodo Möller0cceb1c1999-05-30 23:54:52 +00009199
Bodo Möller664b9981999-07-21 20:49:15 +00009200 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9201 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9202 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
Bodo Möller2e0fc871999-07-27 09:10:36 +00009203 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
Bodo Möller57119941999-07-29 12:57:23 +00009204 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9205 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).

9210
Ulf Möller64344501999-07-16 00:50:45 +00009211 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9212 delete an unused file.
9213 [Ulf Möller]
9214
Dr. Stephen Hensonb617a5b1999-07-12 23:35:10 +00009215 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9216 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9217 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9218 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9219 [Steve Henson]
9220
Bodo Möller50596581999-07-12 17:15:42 +00009221 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9222 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9223 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9224 of an error.
9225 [Bodo Moeller]
9226
Bodo Möller03cd4941999-07-11 22:00:55 +00009227 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check

9229 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9230
Dr. Stephen Hensonf598cd11999-07-11 17:09:04 +00009231 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9232 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9233 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9234 comparison" warnings.
9235 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.

9241 [Steve Henson]
9242
Dr. Stephen Henson0ab8beb1999-07-11 12:30:55 +00009243 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9244 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9245
Dr. Stephen Hensonf7daafa1999-07-11 01:48:21 +00009246 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9247 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9248
9249 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9250 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9251 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9252
9253 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9254 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9255 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9256 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9257 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9258 this bug.

9260
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00009261 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9262 The interface is as follows:
Bodo Möller777ab7e1999-07-09 16:27:30 +00009263 Applications can use
9264 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9265 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9266 "off" is now the default.
9267 The library internally uses
9268 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9269 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9270 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9271
9272 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9273 even the default) are now avoided.
Bodo Möller458cddc1999-07-19 09:25:35 +00009274
9275 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9276 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9277 than just having a counter.

Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00009285 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9286 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9287 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
Bodo Möller9c962481999-07-19 12:59:12 +00009288 Initial "mode" flags are:
Bodo Möllere1056431999-07-02 13:55:32 +00009289
9290 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when

9313
Dr. Stephen Henson034292a1999-06-24 01:50:27 +00009314 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9315 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9316 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9317 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9318 point to the end.

9321
Dr. Stephen Henson170afce1999-06-22 13:33:22 +00009322 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9323 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9324 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9325 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9326 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9327 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).

Dr. Stephen Henson5f6d0ea1999-06-09 23:33:48 +00009382 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9383 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9384 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9385 unusual formatting.
9386 [Steve Henson]
9387
Dr. Stephen Hensonf62676b1999-06-09 18:05:30 +00009388 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9389 to use the new extension code.
9390 [Steve Henson]
9391
9392 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9393 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9394 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9395 constant.
9396 [Steve Henson]
9397
Bodo Möller8151f521999-06-09 13:29:51 +00009398 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9399 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9400 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.

9408 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9409 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.

Ben Laurie233bf731999-06-09 10:19:53 +00009412 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9413 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9414 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9415 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9416 [Ben Laurie]
9417
Ulf Möller908eb7b1999-06-08 16:35:11 +00009418 *) DES library cleanups.
9419 [Ulf Möller]
9420
Dr. Stephen Henson8eb57af1999-06-08 00:09:51 +00009421 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9422 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9423 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9424 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9425 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9426 of v2.0.
9427 [Steve Henson]
9428
Bodo Möllerd4443ed1999-06-07 13:34:25 +00009429 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9430 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".

Dr. Stephen Henson69cbf461999-06-06 13:07:13 +00009433 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9434 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9435 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9436 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9437 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9438 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9439 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9440 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9441 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9442 [Steve Henson]
9443
Dr. Stephen Hensonef8335d1999-06-04 23:32:14 +00009444 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
Dr. Stephen Hensone7871ff1999-06-05 12:39:10 +00009445 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9446 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9447 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9448 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9449 value doesn't matter.

9451
Ben Laurie84c15db1999-06-04 22:23:10 +00009452 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't

Ralf S. Engelschall1b276f31999-03-24 10:24:35 +00009512
Ulf Möllere14d4441999-05-20 01:43:07 +00009513 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9514 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9515 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9516
Dr. Stephen Hensone84240d1999-05-19 12:45:16 +00009517 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9518 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9519 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9520 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9521 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9522 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9523 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9524 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9525 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9526 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9527 [Steve Henson]
9528
Dr. Stephen Henson1b266da1999-05-16 17:32:32 +00009529 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9530 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9531 [Steve Henson]
9532
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00009533 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
Bodo Möllerf43c8141999-05-16 14:20:17 +00009534 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00009535 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +02009536 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
Bodo Möller55519bb1999-05-16 12:29:28 +00009537 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9538
9539 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9540 [Bodo Moeller]
9541
Dr. Stephen Henson84fa7041999-05-16 00:25:36 +00009542 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9543 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9544 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9545 [Steve Henson]
9546
Ben Laurie62bad771999-05-15 15:59:28 +00009547 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9548 [Ben Laurie]
9549
Dr. Stephen Henson1ad2ecb1999-05-14 18:21:21 +00009550 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9551 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9552 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9553 key elements as negative integers.
9554 [Steve Henson]
9555
Ulf Möllerbd3576d1999-05-13 13:16:42 +00009556 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.

9560 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9561
Dr. Stephen Hensonf5eac851999-05-12 01:56:27 +00009562 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9563 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9564 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9565 [Steve Henson]
9566
Bodo Möllerb31b04d1999-05-11 07:43:16 +00009567 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9568 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9569 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9570 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9571 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9572 [Bodo Moeller]
9573
Ulf Möllerd5a2ea41999-05-10 23:59:28 +00009574 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.

Ralf S. Engelschall397f7031999-05-10 08:33:56 +00009577 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9578 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9579 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9580 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9581
Dr. Stephen Henson884e8ec1999-05-10 00:47:42 +00009582 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9583 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9584 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9585
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00009586 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9587 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9588 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9589 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9590 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9591 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9592 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9593 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9594 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9595
9596 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9597 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9598 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9599 does not influence s as it used to.
9600
Bodo Möllerca8e5b91999-05-09 20:12:44 +00009601 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
Bodo Möllerb56bce41999-05-13 15:09:38 +00009602 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9603 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9604 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9605 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9606 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.

9608
Dr. Stephen Hensonc8b41851999-05-09 16:39:11 +00009609 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9610 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9611 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9612 key type.
9613 [Steve Henson]
9614
Dr. Stephen Hensone40b7ab1999-05-08 12:59:50 +00009615 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9616 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9617 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9618 and 'x509').
9619 [Steve Henson]
9620
9621 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9622 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9623 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9624 extension option.
9625 [Steve Henson]
9626
Ben Laurie5b640021999-05-07 15:42:23 +00009627 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,

9650 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9651
Bodo Möllerb3ca6451999-05-01 17:43:52 +00009652 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9653 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9654 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9655 DER-encoded.)
9656 [Bodo Moeller]
9657
Bodo Möller7f897141999-05-01 03:20:40 +00009658 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9659 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9660 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9661 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9662 now it really counts the depth.
9663 [Bodo Moeller]
9664
Bodo Möllerdc1f6071999-05-01 20:16:35 +00009665 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9666 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9667 messages since the error codes are not globally unique

9669 didn't match the private key).
9670
Bodo Möller4eb77b21999-04-30 17:15:56 +00009671 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default

Dr. Stephen Hensonb64f8251999-04-27 00:36:20 +00009702 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9703 extension adding in x509 utility.
9704 [Steve Henson]
9705
Ulf Möllera9be3af1999-04-26 16:43:10 +00009706 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9707 [Ulf Möller]
9708
Dr. Stephen Henson47339f61999-04-26 00:23:10 +00009709 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9710 prototypes.
9711 [Steve Henson]
9712
Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00009713 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.

Ulf Möllerb0b7b1c1999-04-24 23:01:36 +00009715
Dr. Stephen Henson6d311931999-04-24 00:15:18 +00009716 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9717 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9718 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9719 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9720 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9721 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9722 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9723 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
Dr. Stephen Henson6e781e81999-04-24 13:28:57 +00009724 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9725 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).

9727
Bodo Möller018b4ee1999-04-23 22:38:22 +00009728 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.

9730
Bodo Möller85f48f71999-04-22 14:28:38 +00009731 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9732 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9733 [Bodo Moeller]
9734
Bodo Möller90b8bbb1999-04-22 13:38:03 +00009735 *) Fix some race conditions.
9736 [Bodo Moeller]
9737
Dr. Stephen Hensond943e371999-04-21 17:44:45 +00009738 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9739 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9740 [Steve Henson]
9741
Ulf Möller8e10f2b1999-04-21 17:31:05 +00009742 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9743 [Ulf Möller]
9744
Ben Laurie49971381999-04-21 13:24:58 +00009745 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9746 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9747 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9748 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]

9752
9753 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9754 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.

9775
Ben Lauriee7788021999-04-17 21:25:43 +00009776 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9777 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9778 [Ben Laurie]
9779
Dr. Stephen Hensonc83e5231999-04-17 23:55:39 +00009780 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9781 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.

9783
Dr. Stephen Henson1d48dd01999-04-16 23:57:04 +00009784 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9785 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9786 [Steve Henson]
9787
Dr. Stephen Henson953937b1999-04-15 23:07:00 +00009788 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9789 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9790 [Steve Henson]
9791
Dr. Stephen Henson28a98801999-04-14 23:44:41 +00009792 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to

9794 [Steve Henson]
9795
Ben Laurie8f7de4f1999-04-14 11:13:47 +00009796 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().

9798
Dr. Stephen Henson0490a861999-04-13 23:56:39 +00009799 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9800 old X509V3 handling code.
9801 [Steve Henson]
9802
Ulf Möller5fbe91d1999-04-13 00:58:49 +00009803 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9804 [Ulf Möller]
9805
Bodo Möller5fd4e2b1999-04-12 19:58:17 +00009806 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9807 [Bodo Moeller]
9808
Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00009809 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9810 [Ben Laurie]
9811
Ralf S. Engelschall9263e881999-05-04 10:27:10 +00009812 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.

Ralf S. Engelschall9263e881999-05-04 10:27:10 +00009814
Ben Laurief73e07c1999-04-12 17:23:57 +00009815 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9816 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9817 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9818 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9819 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9820 [Ben Laurie]
9821
Ralf S. Engelschallf9a25931999-04-12 11:45:14 +00009822 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9823 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9824 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9825 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9826 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9827
Ralf S. Engelschall2f0cd191999-04-12 10:36:16 +00009828 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9829 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9830 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9831 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9832
Ralf S. Engelschall268c2101999-04-12 09:59:05 +00009833 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9834 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9835 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9836 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9837
Bodo Möllerfc8ee061999-04-11 02:49:35 +00009838 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9839 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9840 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9841 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9842 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9843 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9844 [Bodo Moeller]
9845
Bodo Möllerc7ac31e1999-04-09 20:54:25 +00009846 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9847 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9848 [Bodo Moeller]
9849
Ulf Möller9d892e21999-04-09 17:04:32 +00009850 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to

9859 [Steve Henson]
9860
Ulf Möller99aab161999-04-01 12:34:33 +00009861 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9862 [Ulf Möller]
9863
Ulf Möller2613c1f1999-03-31 12:38:27 +00009864 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9865 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9866 [Ulf Möller]
9867
Bodo Möller6d02d8e1999-03-31 12:06:30 +00009868 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and

9870 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9871 [Bodo Moeller]

9874 [Bodo Moeller]
9875
Dr. Stephen Hensonee0508d1999-03-29 17:50:26 +00009876 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl

9878 [Steve Henson]
9879
Dr. Stephen Henson8d8c7261999-03-28 23:17:34 +00009880 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and

9883 [Steve Henson]
9884
Dr. Stephen Hensoncfcefcb1999-03-28 17:46:10 +00009885 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and

9888 [Steve Henson]
9889

9918 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9919 [Ben Laurie]
9920
9921 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9922 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9923 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9924 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.

9938 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9939
Ben Laurie29c0fcc1999-03-12 20:26:27 +00009940 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9941 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9942 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9943 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9944
Ben Lauriecadf1261999-03-12 19:58:43 +00009945 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9946 [Ben Laurie]
9947
Dr. Stephen Hensonbc420ac1999-03-12 01:43:28 +00009948 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9949 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9950 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9951 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9952 [Steve Henson]
9953
Dr. Stephen Hensonabd4c911999-03-11 02:42:13 +00009954 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9955 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9956 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9957 [Steve Henson]
9958
Ralf S. Engelschall7e37e721999-03-10 19:57:05 +00009959 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9960 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9961 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is

9982 [Steve Henson]
9983
Dr. Stephen Henson0cc39571999-03-08 22:46:56 +00009984 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9985 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9986 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9987 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.

9997
Ralf S. Engelschall84107e61999-03-08 11:25:49 +00009998 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9999 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10000 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10001 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10002 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10003 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and

Dr. Stephen Henson1756d401999-03-06 19:33:29 +000010016 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10017 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10018 in CRLs.

Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +000010021 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10022 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10023 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10024 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
Bodo Moeller4dc83672013-09-16 14:55:03 +020010025 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
Ralf S. Engelschall116e3151999-03-06 16:07:47 +000010026 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10027 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10028 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10029 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10030 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.

10032
Ben Lauriebc348241999-03-06 15:21:02 +000010033 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10034 [Ben Laurie]
10035
Ralf S. Engelschall3eb0ed61999-03-06 14:35:03 +000010036 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10037 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10038 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10039 for linking it into DSOs.
10040 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10041
Ben Laurief415fa31999-03-06 14:09:36 +000010042 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10043 Fixed.
10044 [Ben Laurie]
10045
Ralf S. Engelschall0b903ec1999-03-06 13:29:09 +000010046 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10047 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10048 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10049 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10050 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10051 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10052
Ralf S. Engelschallbb8f3c51999-03-06 12:32:06 +000010053 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10054 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10055 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10056 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10057 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10058 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10059 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10060
Ben Laurie988788f1999-03-06 12:09:36 +000010061 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10062 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10063 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10064 encryption.
10065 [Ben Laurie]
10066
Dr. Stephen Henson924acc51999-03-05 02:05:15 +000010067 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10068 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10069 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10070 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10071 [Steve Henson]
10072
Dr. Stephen Hensond00b7aa1999-03-05 01:07:04 +000010073 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10074 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10075 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10076 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10077 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10078 field as blank.

10080
Ralf S. Engelschall789285a1999-03-04 12:55:42 +000010081 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10082 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10083 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10084 relationship to the OpenSSL project.

10086
Ralf S. Engelschalla06c6021999-03-04 07:54:01 +000010087 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10088 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10089 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10090
Ralf S. Engelschall8d697db1999-03-04 07:47:27 +000010091 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/

10093
Dr. Stephen Henson06c68491999-03-03 02:01:26 +000010094 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10095 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10096 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10097 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10098 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10099 [Steve Henson]
10100
Ralf S. Engelschall72e442a1999-03-22 15:50:34 +000010101 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10102 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10103 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10104 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10105 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
Ben Laurieeb90a481999-02-28 17:41:55 +000010106 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10107 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10108 [Ben Laurie]
10109
Ben Laurie4f43d0e1999-02-28 12:41:50 +000010110 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10111 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10112 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10113 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.

Dr. Stephen Henson7283ece1999-02-26 01:37:34 +000010119 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10120 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10121 [Steve Henson]
10122
Ralf S. Engelschall15d21c21999-02-25 14:40:29 +000010123 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10124 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10125 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10126 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10127 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10128 (e.g. s_server).
10129 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10130 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10131 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10132 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10133 no way to reconfigure them.
10134 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10135 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10136 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10137 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10138 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.

10140
Ralf S. Engelschallea14a911999-02-25 11:26:26 +000010141 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10142 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10143 recognized by the users.
10144 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10145
Ralf S. Engelschall90a52ce1999-02-25 11:03:18 +000010146 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10147 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10148 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10149 already masked variable.

10151
Ralf S. Engelschalldef9f431999-02-25 10:54:27 +000010152 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10153 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10154
Ralf S. Engelschall8aef2521999-02-25 10:47:24 +000010155 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10156 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10157 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.

10159
Ralf S. Engelschalla4ed5531999-02-25 08:48:52 +000010160 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10161 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10162 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10163
Ralf S. Engelschall7be304a1999-02-24 17:17:31 +000010164 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10165 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10166 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10167 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10168 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10169 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10170 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10171 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10172 now, too.
10173 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10174
Ben Laurie55ab3bf1999-02-23 21:44:34 +000010175 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10176 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10177 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10178
Dr. Stephen Hensona43aa731999-02-23 00:07:46 +000010179 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10180 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10181 config file.
10182 [Steve Henson]
10183
Ben Laurie0849d131999-02-22 21:21:08 +000010184 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).

10186
Ben Laurie06ab81f1999-02-21 20:03:24 +000010187 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10188 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10189 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher

10191 [Ben Laurie]
10192
Dr. Stephen Hensondeff75b1999-02-21 17:41:08 +000010193 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10194 [Steve Henson]
10195
Dr. Stephen Henson0c8a1281999-02-21 17:39:07 +000010196 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.

Dr. Stephen Henson0ca5f8b1999-02-19 01:29:29 +000010202 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10203 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10204 [Steve Henson]
10205
Dr. Stephen Henson3d8accc1999-02-17 23:21:01 +000010206 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10207 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10208 [Steve Henson]
10209
Ben Lauriea4949891999-02-17 21:11:08 +000010210 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10211 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10212 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10213 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10214 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10215 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.

10221
10222 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10223 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10224 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10225 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00

10227
Dr. Stephen Hensona8236c81999-02-15 21:05:21 +000010228 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10229 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes

10253
Ben Laurie4e31df21999-02-13 18:52:38 +000010254 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10255 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10256 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10257 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.

10259
Dr. Stephen Hensone4119b91999-02-13 17:15:32 +000010260 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script

10265
Ben Laurie4a71b901999-02-13 15:03:47 +000010266 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10267 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able

Ralf S. Engelschall80730361999-02-10 09:38:31 +000010285 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10286 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10287 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10288 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10289 their history because I've copied them in the repository)

Ralf S. Engelschall483fdf11999-02-10 08:34:01 +000010294 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10295 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10296 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10297 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10298 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10299 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10300 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10301 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10302 the crypto/md/ stuff).

10337 [Steve Henson]
10338
Mark J. Coxa0a54071999-01-28 10:40:38 +000010339 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10340 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10341 doing certificate verification and some other functions.

10355 [Steve Henson]
10356
Dr. Stephen Hensonf317aa41999-01-25 01:09:21 +000010357 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10358 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10359 CA extensions.

10368 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10369 [Steve Henson]
10370
Dr. Stephen Henson9b5cc151999-01-20 00:14:40 +000010371 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10372 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10373 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10374 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10375 properly to be processed.
10376 [Steve Henson]
10377
Ben Laurie80392571999-01-19 21:36:31 +000010378 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another

10385
Dr. Stephen Henson6c8abdd1999-01-18 22:18:38 +000010386 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10387 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10388 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10389 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10390 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10391 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10392 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10393 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10394 or delete all the .err files.

Ben Laurie649cdb71999-01-17 16:26:24 +000010397 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10398 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10399 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10400 to regenerate it if needed.

10408 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10409 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10410 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10411 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.

10427
Dr. Stephen Hensonee13f9b1999-01-14 18:25:07 +000010428 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct

10430 [Steve Henson]
10431

10434
Dr. Stephen Henson2d723901999-01-12 18:40:33 +000010435 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10436 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10437 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10438 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10439 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10440 OID is not part of the table.

Ralf S. Engelschall06d5b161999-01-02 12:59:33 +000010504 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10505 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
