10 Changes between 1.1.1f and 1.1.1g [21 Apr 2020]
11
12 *) Fixed segmentation fault in SSL_check_chain()
13 Server or client applications that call the SSL_check_chain() function
14 during or after a TLS 1.3 handshake may crash due to a NULL pointer
15 dereference as a result of incorrect handling of the
16 "signature_algorithms_cert" TLS extension. The crash occurs if an invalid
17 or unrecognised signature algorithm is received from the peer. This could
18 be exploited by a malicious peer in a Denial of Service attack.
19 (CVE-2020-1967)
20 [Benjamin Kaduk]
21
22 *) Added AES consttime code for no-asm configurations
23 an optional constant time support for AES was added
24 when building openssl for no-asm.
25 Enable with: ./config no-asm -DOPENSSL_AES_CONST_TIME
26 Disable with: ./config no-asm -DOPENSSL_NO_AES_CONST_TIME
27 At this time this feature is by default disabled.
28 It will be enabled by default in 3.0.
29 [Bernd Edlinger]
30
31 Changes between 1.1.1e and 1.1.1f [31 Mar 2020]
32
33 *) Revert the change of EOF detection while reading in libssl to avoid
34 regressions in applications depending on the current way of reporting
35 the EOF. As the existing method is not fully accurate the change to
36 reporting the EOF via SSL_ERROR_SSL is kept on the current development
37 branch and will be present in the 3.0 release.
38 [Tomas Mraz]
39
40 *) Revised BN_generate_prime_ex to not avoid factors 3..17863 in p-1
41 when primes for RSA keys are computed.
42 Since we previously always generated primes == 2 (mod 3) for RSA keys,
43 the 2-prime and 3-prime RSA modules were easy to distinguish, since
44 N = p*q = 1 (mod 3), but N = p*q*r = 2 (mod 3). Therefore fingerprinting
45 2-prime vs. 3-prime RSA keys was possible by computing N mod 3.
46 This avoids possible fingerprinting of newly generated RSA modules.
47 [Bernd Edlinger]
48
49 Changes between 1.1.1d and 1.1.1e [17 Mar 2020]
50 *) Properly detect EOF while reading in libssl. Previously if we hit an EOF
51 while reading in libssl then we would report an error back to the
52 application (SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL) but errno would be 0. We now add
53 an error to the stack (which means we instead return SSL_ERROR_SSL) and
54 therefore give a hint as to what went wrong.
55 [Matt Caswell]
56
57 *) Check that ed25519 and ed448 are allowed by the security level. Previously
58 signature algorithms not using an MD were not being checked that they were
59 allowed by the security level.
60 [Kurt Roeckx]
61
62 *) Fixed SSL_get_servername() behaviour. The behaviour of SSL_get_servername()
63 was not quite right. The behaviour was not consistent between resumption
64 and normal handshakes, and also not quite consistent with historical
65 behaviour. The behaviour in various scenarios has been clarified and
66 it has been updated to make it match historical behaviour as closely as
67 possible.
68 [Matt Caswell]
69
70 *) [VMS only] The header files that the VMS compilers include automatically,
71 __DECC_INCLUDE_PROLOGUE.H and __DECC_INCLUDE_EPILOGUE.H, use pragmas that
72 the C++ compiler doesn't understand. This is a shortcoming in the
73 compiler, but can be worked around with __cplusplus guards.
74
75 C++ applications that use OpenSSL libraries must be compiled using the
76 qualifier '/NAMES=(AS_IS,SHORTENED)' to be able to use all the OpenSSL
77 functions. Otherwise, only functions with symbols of less than 31
78 characters can be used, as the linker will not be able to successfully
79 resolve symbols with longer names.
80 [Richard Levitte]
81
82 *) Corrected the documentation of the return values from the EVP_DigestSign*
83 set of functions. The documentation mentioned negative values for some
84 errors, but this was never the case, so the mention of negative values
85 was removed.
86
87 Code that followed the documentation and thereby check with something
88 like 'EVP_DigestSignInit(...) <= 0' will continue to work undisturbed.
89 [Richard Levitte]
90
91 *) Fixed an an overflow bug in the x64_64 Montgomery squaring procedure
92 used in exponentiation with 512-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are
93 affected. Analysis suggests that attacks against 2-prime RSA1024,
94 3-prime RSA1536, and DSA1024 as a result of this defect would be very
95 difficult to perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH512
96 are considered just feasible. However, for an attack the target would
97 have to re-use the DH512 private key, which is not recommended anyway.
98 Also applications directly using the low level API BN_mod_exp may be
99 affected if they use BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
100 (CVE-2019-1551)
101 [Andy Polyakov]
102
103 *) Added a new method to gather entropy on VMS, based on SYS$GET_ENTROPY.
104 The presence of this system service is determined at run-time.
105 [Richard Levitte]
106
107 *) Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
108 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the '*sum'
109 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
110 [Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale]
111
112 *) Print all values for a PKCS#12 attribute with 'openssl pkcs12', not just
113 the first value.
114 [Jon Spillett]
115
116 Changes between 1.1.1c and 1.1.1d [10 Sep 2019]
117
118 *) Fixed a fork protection issue. OpenSSL 1.1.1 introduced a rewritten random
119 number generator (RNG). This was intended to include protection in the
120 event of a fork() system call in order to ensure that the parent and child
121 processes did not share the same RNG state. However this protection was not
122 being used in the default case.
123
124 A partial mitigation for this issue is that the output from a high
125 precision timer is mixed into the RNG state so the likelihood of a parent
126 and child process sharing state is significantly reduced.
127
128 If an application already calls OPENSSL_init_crypto() explicitly using
129 OPENSSL_INIT_ATFORK then this problem does not occur at all.
130 (CVE-2019-1549)
131 [Matthias St. Pierre]
132
133 *) For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
134 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a serialized key
135 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
136 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
137 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
138 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
139 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
140 serialized, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
141 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
142 [Nicola Tuveri]
143
144 *) Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
145 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
146 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
147 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
148 (CVE-2019-1547)
149 [Billy Bob Brumley]
150
151 *) Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
152 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
153 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
154 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
155 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
156 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
157 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
158 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
159 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
160 certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
161 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
162 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
163 (CVE-2019-1563)
164 [Bernd Edlinger]
165
166 *) Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been
167 improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for
168 /dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom.
169 The seeded state is stored for future library initialisations using
170 a system global shared memory segment. The shared memory identifier
171 can be configured by defining OPENSSL_RAND_SEED_DEVRANDOM_SHM_ID to
172 the desired value. The default identifier is 114.
173 [Paul Dale]
174
175 *) Correct the extended master secret constant on EBCDIC systems. Without this
176 fix TLS connections between an EBCDIC system and a non-EBCDIC system that
177 negotiate EMS will fail. Unfortunately this also means that TLS connections
178 between EBCDIC systems with this fix, and EBCDIC systems without this
179 fix will fail if they negotiate EMS.
180 [Matt Caswell]
181
182 *) Use Windows installation paths in the mingw builds
183
184 Mingw isn't a POSIX environment per se, which means that Windows
185 paths should be used for installation.
186 (CVE-2019-1552)
187 [Richard Levitte]
188
189 *) Changed DH_check to accept parameters with order q and 2q subgroups.
190 With order 2q subgroups the bit 0 of the private key is not secret
191 but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the
192 private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key.
193 [Bernd Edlinger]
194
195 *) Significantly reduce secure memory usage by the randomness pools.
196 [Paul Dale]
197
198 *) Revert the DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
199
200 The DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature added a select() call to wait for the
201 /dev/random device to become readable before reading from the
202 /dev/urandom device.
203
204 It turned out that this change had negative side effects on
205 performance which were not acceptable. After some discussion it
206 was decided to revert this feature and leave it up to the OS
207 resp. the platform maintainer to ensure a proper initialization
208 during early boot time.
209 [Matthias St. Pierre]
210
211 Changes between 1.1.1b and 1.1.1c [28 May 2019]
212
213 *) Add build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
214 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
215 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
216
217 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
218 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
219 [Richard Levitte]
220
221 *) Enable SHA3 pre-hashing for ECDSA and DSA.
222 [Patrick Steuer]
223
224 *) Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
225 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
226 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
227 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
228 [Kurt Roeckx]
229
230 *) Reorganize the manual pages to consistently have RETURN VALUES,
231 EXAMPLES, SEE ALSO and HISTORY come in that order, and adjust
232 util/fix-doc-nits accordingly.
233 [Paul Yang, Joshua Lock]
234
235 *) Add the missing accessor EVP_PKEY_get0_engine()
236 [Matt Caswell]
237
238 *) Have apps like 's_client' and 's_server' output the signature scheme
239 along with other cipher suite parameters when debugging.
240 [Lorinczy Zsigmond]
241
242 *) Make OPENSSL_config() error agnostic again.
243 [Richard Levitte]
244
245 *) Do the error handling in RSA decryption constant time.
246 [Bernd Edlinger]
247
248 *) Prevent over long nonces in ChaCha20-Poly1305.
249
250 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is an AEAD cipher, and requires a unique nonce input
251 for every encryption operation. RFC 7539 specifies that the nonce value
252 (IV) should be 96 bits (12 bytes). OpenSSL allows a variable nonce length
253 and front pads the nonce with 0 bytes if it is less than 12
254 bytes. However it also incorrectly allows a nonce to be set of up to 16
255 bytes. In this case only the last 12 bytes are significant and any
256 additional leading bytes are ignored.
257
258 It is a requirement of using this cipher that nonce values are
259 unique. Messages encrypted using a reused nonce value are susceptible to
260 serious confidentiality and integrity attacks. If an application changes
261 the default nonce length to be longer than 12 bytes and then makes a
262 change to the leading bytes of the nonce expecting the new value to be a
263 new unique nonce then such an application could inadvertently encrypt
264 messages with a reused nonce.
265
266 Additionally the ignored bytes in a long nonce are not covered by the
267 integrity guarantee of this cipher. Any application that relies on the
268 integrity of these ignored leading bytes of a long nonce may be further
269 affected. Any OpenSSL internal use of this cipher, including in SSL/TLS,
270 is safe because no such use sets such a long nonce value. However user
271 applications that use this cipher directly and set a non-default nonce
272 length to be longer than 12 bytes may be vulnerable.
273
274 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th of March 2019 by Joran Dirk
275 Greef of Ronomon.
276 (CVE-2019-1543)
277 [Matt Caswell]
278
279 *) Add DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
280
281 On older Linux systems where the getrandom() system call is not available,
282 OpenSSL normally uses the /dev/urandom device for seeding its CSPRNG.
283 Contrary to getrandom(), the /dev/urandom device will not block during
284 early boot when the kernel CSPRNG has not been seeded yet.
285
286 To mitigate this known weakness, use select() to wait for /dev/random to
287 become readable before reading from /dev/urandom.
288
289 *) Ensure that SM2 only uses SM3 as digest algorithm
290 [Paul Yang]
291
292 Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [26 Feb 2019]
293
294 *) Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
295 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
296 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
297 to affine coordinates.
298 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
299
300 *) Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
301 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
302 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
303 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
304 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
305 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
306 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
307 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
308 applications.
309 [Matt Caswell]
310
311 *) Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
312 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
313 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
314 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
315 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
316 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
317
318 *) Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
319 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
320 [Bernd Edlinger]
321
322 *) Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
323 [Richard Levitte]
324
325 *) Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
326 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
327 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
328 [Richard Levitte]
329
330 Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
331
332 *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
333
334 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
335 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
336 algorithm to recover the private key.
337
338 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
339 (CVE-2018-0734)
340 [Paul Dale]
341
342 *) Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
343
344 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
345 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
346 algorithm to recover the private key.
347
348 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
349 (CVE-2018-0735)
350 [Paul Dale]
351
352 *) Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
353 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
354 are retained for backwards compatibility.
355 [Antoine Salon]
356
357 *) Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
358 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
359 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
360
361 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
362 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
363 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
364 provided by the application.
365
366 Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
367
368 *) Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
369 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
370 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
371 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
372 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
373 of the ClientHello
374 [Benjamin Kaduk]
375
376 *) Add SM2 base algorithm support.
377 [Jack Lloyd]
378
379 *) s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
380 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
381 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
382 [Patrick Steuer]
383
384 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
385 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
386 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
387 [Richard Levitte]
388
389 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
390 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
391 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
392 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
393 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
394 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
395 to work in projective coordinates.
396 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
397
398 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
399 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
400 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
401 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
402 to 2^-128.
403 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
404
405 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
406 [Kurt Roeckx]
407
408 *) The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
409 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
410 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
411 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
412 [Richard Levitte]
413
414 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
415 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
416 [Andy Polyakov]
417
418 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
419 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
420 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
421 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
422 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
423
424 *) Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
425 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
426 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
427 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
428 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
429 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
430
431 *) Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
432 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
433 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
434 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
435 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
436 [Paul Dale]
437
438 *) Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
439 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
440 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
441 authors.
442 [Matt Caswell]
443
444 *) AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
445 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
446 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
447 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
448 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
449 multi-version installation is managed.
450 [Andy Polyakov]
451
452 *) Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
453 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
454 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
455 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
456 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
457 [Billy Bob Brumley]
458
459 *) Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
460 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
461 chosen point SCA attacks.
462 [Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley]
463
464 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
465 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
466 [Matt Caswell]
467
468 *) Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
469 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
470 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
471 [Matt Caswell]
472
473 *) SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
474 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
475 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
476 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
477 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
478 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
479 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
480 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
481 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
482 [Kurt Roeckx]
483
484 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
485 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
486 [Richard Levitte]
487
488 *) Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
489 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
490 [Billy Bob Brumley]
491
492 *) Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
493 binary and prime elliptic curves.
494 [Billy Bob Brumley]
495
496 *) Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
497 constant time fixed point multiplication.
498 [Billy Bob Brumley]
499
500 *) Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
501 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
502 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
503 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
504 ECDH derive operations).
505 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
506 Sohaib ul Hassan]
507
508 *) Updated CONTRIBUTING
509 [Rich Salz]
510
511 *) Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
512 randomness from the system.
513 [Matthias St. Pierre]
514
515 *) Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
516 [Richard Levitte]
517
518 *) Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
519 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
520 [Matt Caswell]
521
522 *) Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
523 [Matt Caswell]
524
525 *) Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
526 [Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz]
527
528 *) Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
529 [Richard Levitte]
530
531 *) Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
532 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
533 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
534 [Matt Caswell]
535
536 *) Memory allocation failures consistently add an error to the error
537 stack.
538 [Rich Salz]
539
540 *) Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
541 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
542 [Bernd Edlinger]
543
544 *) Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
545 [Matt Caswell]
546
547 *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
548 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
549 [Matthias St. Pierre]
550
551 *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
552 for the license change).
553 [Rich Salz]
554
555 *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
556 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
557 [Matt Caswell]
558
559 *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
560 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
561 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
562 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
563 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
564 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
565 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
566 [Matt Caswell]
567
568 *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
569 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
570 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
571 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
572 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
573 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
574 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
575 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
576 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
577 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
578 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
579 written to stderr.
580 [Viktor Dukhovni]
581
582 *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
583 Mike Hamburg.
584 [Matt Caswell]
585
586 *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
587 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
588 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
589 get the search data out of them.
590 [Richard Levitte]
591
592 *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
593 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
594 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
595 https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3
596 [Matt Caswell]
597
598 *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
599
600 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
601 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
602 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
603 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
604 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
605 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
606
607 Some of its new features are:
608 o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
609 o The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
610 o There is a public and private DRBG instance.
611 o The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
612 o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
613 o The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
614 operation
615 [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
616
617 *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
618 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
619 to display all sorts of configuration data.
620 [Richard Levitte]
621
622 *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
623 [Richard Levitte]
624
625 *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
626 [Paul Dale]
627
628 *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
629 now been removed.
630 [Rich Salz]
631
632 *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
633 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
634 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
635 debug (or make silent).
636 [Richard Levitte]
637
638 *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
639 arguments to config / Configure.
640 [Richard Levitte]
641
642 *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
643 [Paul Yang]
644
645 *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
646 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
647 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
648 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
649
650 *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
651 as documented in RFC6066.
652 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
653 [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
654
655 *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
656 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
657 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
658 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
659
660 *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
661 original author does not agree with the license change.
662 [Rich Salz]
663
664 *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
665 [Jon Spillett]
666
667 *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
668 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
669 [Rich Salz]
670
671 *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
672 without clearing the errors.
673 [Richard Levitte]
674
675 *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
676 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
677 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
678 [Rich Salz]
679
680 *) Add SHA3.
681 [Andy Polyakov]
682
683 *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
684 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
685 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
686 as a fallback).
687
688 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
689 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
690 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
691 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
692 [Richard Levitte]
693
694 *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
695 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
696 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
697 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
698 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
699 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
700 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
701 [Richard Levitte]
702
703 *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
704 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
705 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
706 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
707 [Richard Levitte]
708
709 *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
710 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
711 error code calls like this:
712
713 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
714
715 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
716 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
717 affect new modules.
718 [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
719
720 *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
721 [Rich Salz]
722
723 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
724 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
725 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
726 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
727 [Richard Levitte]
728
729 *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
730 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
731 than just the call where this user data is passed.
732 [Richard Levitte]
733
734 *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
735 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
736 [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
737
738 *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
739 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
740 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
741 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
742 prohibits this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
743 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
744 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause interoperability
745 issues.
746 [Matt Caswell]
747
748 *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
749 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
750 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
751 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
752 [Richard Levitte]
753
754 *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
755 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
756 [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
757
758 *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
759 does for RSA, etc.
760 [Richard Levitte]
761
762 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
763 platform rather than 'mingw'.
764 [Richard Levitte]
765
766 *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
767 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
768 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
769 certificates and CRLs.
770 [Paul Dale]
771
772 *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
773 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
774 [Andy Polyakov]
775
776 *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
777 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
778 [Richard Levitte]
779
780 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
781 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
782 which is the minimum version we support.
783 [Richard Levitte]
784
785 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
786 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
787 are no longer allowed.
788 [Emilia Käsper]
789
790 *) Add support for ARIA
791 [Paul Dale]
792
793 *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
794 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
795 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
796 using "-servername".
797 [Matt Caswell]
798
799 *) Add support for SipHash
800 [Todd Short]
801
802 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
803 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
804 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
805 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
806 [Matt Caswell]
807
808 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
809 using the algorithm defined in
810 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
811 [Richard Levitte]
812
813 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
814 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
815
816 *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
817 [Emilia Käsper]
818
819 *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
820 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
821 [Rich Salz]
822
823
824 Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [xx XXX xxxx]
825
826 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
827
828 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
829 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
830 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
831 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
832 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
833
834 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
835 (CVE-2018-0732)
836 [Guido Vranken]
837
838 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
839
840 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
841 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
842 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
843 recover the private key.
844
845 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
846 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
847 (CVE-2018-0737)
848 [Billy Brumley]
849
850 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
851 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
852 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
853 [Richard Levitte]
854
855 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
856 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
857 [Andy Polyakov]
858
859 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
860 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
861 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
862 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
863 to 2^-128.
864 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
865
866 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
867 [Kurt Roeckx]
868
869 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
870 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
871 [Matt Caswell]
872
873 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
874 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
875 [Richard Levitte]
876
877 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
878 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
879 are no longer allowed.
880 [Emilia Käsper]
881
882 *) Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
883
884 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
885 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
886 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
887 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
888 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
889 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
890 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
891 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
892 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
893 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
894 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
895 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
896 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).
897 [Matt Caswell]
898
899 Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
900
901 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
902
903 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
904 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
905 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
906 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
907 so this is considered safe.
908
909 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
910 project.
911 (CVE-2018-0739)
912 [Matt Caswell]
913
914 *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
915
916 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
917 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
918 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
919 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
920 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
921 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
922
923 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
924 (IBM).
925 (CVE-2018-0733)
926 [Andy Polyakov]
927
928 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
929 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
930 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
931 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
932 [Richard Levitte]
933
934 *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
935
936 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
937 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
938 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
939 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
940 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
941
942 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
943 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
944 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
945 [Matt Caswell]
946
947 *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
948 exist.
949 [Rich Salz]
950
951 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
952
953 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
954 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
955 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
956 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
957 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
958 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
959 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
960 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
961 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
962 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
963
964 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
965 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
966
967 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
968 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
969 (CVE-2017-3738)
970 [Andy Polyakov]
971
972 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
973
974 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
975
976 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
977 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
978 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
979 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
980 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
981 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
982 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
983 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
984 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
985 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
986 key that is shared between multiple clients.
987
988 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
989 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
990
991 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
992 (CVE-2017-3736)
993 [Andy Polyakov]
994
995 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
996
997 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
998 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
999 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
1000
1001 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
1002 (CVE-2017-3735)
1003 [Rich Salz]
1004
1005 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
1006
1007 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
1008 platform rather than 'mingw'.
1009 [Richard Levitte]
1010
1011 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
1012 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
1013 which is the minimum version we support.

1017
1018 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
1019
1020 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
1021 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
1022 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
1023 and servers are affected.
1024
1025 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
1026 (CVE-2017-3733)

1029 Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
1030
1031 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
1032
1033 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
1034 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
1035 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
1036
1037 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
1038 (CVE-2017-3731)
1039 [Andy Polyakov]
1040
1041 *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
1042
1043 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
1044 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
1045 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
1046 of Service attack.
1047
1048 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
1049 (CVE-2017-3730)
1050 [Matt Caswell]
1051
1052 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
1053
1054 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
1055 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
1056 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
1057 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
1058 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
1059 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
1060 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
1061 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
1062 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
1063 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
1064 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
1065 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
1066 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
1067
1068 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
1069 (CVE-2017-3732)
1070 [Andy Polyakov]
1071
1072 Changes between 1.1.0b and 1.1.0c [10 Nov 2016]
1073
1074 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
1075
1076 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
1077 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
1078 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.
1079
1080 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki (Google Security Team)
1081 (CVE-2016-7054)
1082 [Richard Levitte]
1083
1084 *) CMS Null dereference
1085
1086 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
1087 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
1088 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
1089 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
1090 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
1091 affected.
1092
1093 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
1094 (CVE-2016-7053)
1095 [Stephen Henson]
1096
1097 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
1098
1099 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
1100 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
1101 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
1102 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
1103 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
1104 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
1105 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
1106 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
1107 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
1108 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
1109 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
1110 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
1111 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
1112 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
1113
1114 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
1115 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
1116 providing reproducible case.
1117 (CVE-2016-7055)
1118 [Andy Polyakov]
1119
1120 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
1121 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
1122 [Richard Levitte]
1123
1124 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
1125
1126 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
1127
1128 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
1129 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
1130 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
1131 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
1132 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
1133 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
1134
1135 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
1136
1137 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.
1138 (CVE-2016-6309)
1139 [Matt Caswell]
1140
1141 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
1142
1143 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
1144
1145 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
1146 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
1147 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
1148 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
1149 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
1150 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
1151 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
1152
1153 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1154 (CVE-2016-6304)
1155 [Matt Caswell]
1156
1157 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
1158
1159 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
1160 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
1161 Denial Of Service attack.
1162
1163 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
1164 (CVE-2016-6305)
1165 [Matt Caswell]
1166
1167 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
1168 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
1169
1170 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
1171 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
1172 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
1173 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
1174 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
1175 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
1176 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
1177 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
1178 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
1179 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
1180 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
1181 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
1182 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
1183 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
1184 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
1185
1186 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
1187 that the connection fails
1188 or
1189 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
1190 very little free memory
1191 or
1192 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
1193 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
1194 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
1195 memory to service the multiple requests.
1196
1197 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
1198 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
1199 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
1200 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
1201 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
1202
1203 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1204 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
1205 [Matt Caswell]
1206
1207 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
1208 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
1209 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
1210 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
1211 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
1212 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
1213 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
1214 [Andy Polyakov]
1215
1216 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
1217
1218 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
1219 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
1220 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
1221 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
1222 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
1223 non-ASCII password.
1224 [Andy Polyakov]
1225
1226 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
1227 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
1228 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
1229 [Rich Salz]
1230
1231 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
1232 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
1233 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
1234 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
1235 [Matt Caswell]
1236
1237 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
1238 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
1239 success.
1240 [Matt Caswell]
1241
1242 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
1243 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
1244 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
1245 no-ops and deprecated.
1246 [Matt Caswell]
1247
1248 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
1249 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
1250 were also closed.
1251 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
1252
1253 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
1254 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
1255 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
1256 [Rich Salz]
1257
1258 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
1259 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
1260 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
1261 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
1262 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
1263 and the validity of object reference counter.
1264 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
1265
1266 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
1267 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
1268 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
1269 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
1270 [Richard Levitte]
1271
1272 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
1273 [Richard Levitte]
1274
1275 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
1276 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
1277 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
1278 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
1279
1280 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
1281
1282 [Richard Levitte]
1283
1284 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
1285 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
1286 [Steve Henson]
1287
1288 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
1289 [Andy Polyakov]
1290
1291 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
1292 [Rich Salz]
1293
1294 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
1295 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
1296 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
1297 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
1298 name and is used as is.
1299 [Richard Levitte]
1300
1301 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
1302 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
1303 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
1304 [Rich Salz]
1305
1306 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
1307 the "no-shared" Configure option.
1308 [Matt Caswell]
1309
1310 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
1311 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
1312 algorithms.
1313 [Matt Caswell]
1314
1315 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
1316 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
1317 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
1318 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
1319 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
1320 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
1321 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
1322 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
1323 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
1324 [Matt Caswell]
1325
1326 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
1327 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
1328 enabled with '--debug' builds.
1329 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
1330
1331 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
1332 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1333 these have been added.
1334 [Matt Caswell]
1335
1336 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
1337 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
1338 functions for managing these have been added.
1339 [Richard Levitte]
1340
1341 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1342 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1343 these have been added.
1344 [Matt Caswell]
1345
1346 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1347 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1348 have been added.
1349 [Matt Caswell]
1350
1351 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1352 [Matt Caswell]
1353
1354 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1355 [Richard Levitte]
1356
1357 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1358 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1359 [Rich Salz]
1360
1361 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1362 [Richard Levitte]
1363
1364 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1365 [Rich Salz]
1366
1367 *) Add support for HKDF.
1368 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1369
1370 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1371 [Bill Cox]
1372
1373 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1374 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1375 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1376 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1377 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1378 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1379 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1380 [Matt Caswell]
1381
1382 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1383 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1384 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1385 [Catriona Lucey]
1386
1387 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1388 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1389 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1390 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1391 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1392 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1393 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1394
1395 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1396 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1397 [Todd Short]
1398
1399 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1400 [Todd Short]
1401
1402 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1403 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1404 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1405 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1406 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1407 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1408 default cipherlist.
1409 [Emilia Käsper]
1410
1411 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1412 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1413 [Rich Salz]
1414
1415 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1416 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1417 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1418 [Matt Caswell]
1419
1420 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1421 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1422 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1423 implemented by other servers.
1424 [Emilia Käsper]
1425
1426 *) Add X25519 support.
1427 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1428 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1429 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1430 key generation and key derivation.
1431
1432 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1433 X25519(29).
1434 [Steve Henson]
1435
1436 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1437 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1438 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1439 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1440 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1441
1442 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1443 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1444 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1445 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1446 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1447 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1448 that of a valid user.
1449 [Emilia Käsper]
1450
1451 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1452 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1453 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1454 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1455
1456 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1457 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1458
1459 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1460 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1461 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1462 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1463
1464 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1465 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1466 irrelevant.
1467 [Richard Levitte]
1468
1469 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1470 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1471 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1472 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1473 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1474 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1475
1476 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1477 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1478 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1479 [Richard Levitte]
1480
1481 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1482 [Rich Salz]
1483
1484 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1485 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1486 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1487 removed.
1488 [Richard Levitte]
1489
1490 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1491 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1492 old #define's might need to be updated.
1493 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1494
1495 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1496 [Rich Salz]
1497
1498 *) New "unified" build system
1499
1500 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1501 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1502
1503 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1504 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1505 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1506
1507 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1508 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1509 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1510 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1511 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1512
1513 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1514 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1515 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1516 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1517 libraries" in INSTALL.
1518
1519 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1520 [Richard Levitte]
1521
1522 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1523 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1524 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1525 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1526 [Matt Caswell]
1527
1528 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1529 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1530
1531 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1532 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1533 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1534 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1535 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1536 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1537 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1538 have been adapted accordingly.
1539 [Richard Levitte]
1540
1541 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1542 the leading 0-byte.
1543 [Emilia Käsper]
1544
1545 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1546 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1547 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1548 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1549 [Emilia Käsper]
1550
1551 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1552 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1553 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1554 'unsigned char*'.
1555 [Emilia Käsper]
1556
1557 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1558 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1559 [Emilia Käsper]
1560
1561 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1562 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1563 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1564 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1565 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1566 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1567 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1568
1569 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1570 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1571
1572 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1573 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1574 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1575 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1576 Text::Template.
1577
1578 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1579 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1580 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1581 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1582 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1583 %target).
1584 [Richard Levitte]
1585
1586 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1587 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1588 straightforward and less interdependent.
1589
1590 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1591 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1592 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1593
1594 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1595 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1596 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1597 installed.
1598 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1599 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1600 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1601 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1602
1603 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1604 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1605 [Richard Levitte]
1606
1607 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1608 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1609 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1610 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1611 is present).
1612 [Matt Caswell]
1613
1614 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1615 configuring.
1616 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1617
1618 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1619 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1620 before trying to build now.*
1621 [Rich Salz]
1622
1623 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1624 has changed.
1625 [Rich Salz]
1626
1627 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1628
1629 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1630 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1631 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
1632 used to authenticate the peer.
1633
1634 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
1635 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
1636 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
1637 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
1638 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
1639 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1640
1641 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
1642 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
1643 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
1644 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
1645 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
1646 or the 1.1.0 releases.
1647
1648 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
1649 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
1650 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
1651 support for the deprecated features from the library and
1652 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
1653 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
1654 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
1655 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
1656 version.
1657
1658 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
1659 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
1660 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
1661 compile with later releases.
1662
1663 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
1664 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
1665 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
1666 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
1667 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
1668 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1669
1670 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
1671 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
1672 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
1673 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
1674 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
1675 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
1676 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
1677 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
1678 [Kurt Roeckx]
1679
1680 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
1681 [Andy Polyakov]
1682
1683 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
1684 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
1685 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
1686 ECDSA_SIG format.
1687
1688 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
1689 include the ec.h header file instead.
1690 [Steve Henson]
1691
1692 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
1693 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
1694 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
1695 [Kurt Roeckx]
1696
1697 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
1698 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
1699 were added:
1700
1701 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
1702 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
1703
1704 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
1705 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
1706 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
1707
1708 Additional changes:
1709 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
1710 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
1711 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
1712 an already created structure.
1713 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
1714 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
1715 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
1716 for deprecated builds.
1717 [Richard Levitte]
1718
1719 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
1720 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
1721 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
1722 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
1723 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
1724 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
1725 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
1726 [Matt Caswell]
1727
1728 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
1729 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
1730 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
1731 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
1732 [Kurt Roeckx]
1733
1734 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
1735 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
1736 [Kurt Roeckx]
1737
1738 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
1739 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
1740 [Kurt Roeckx]
1741
1742 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
1743 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
1744 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
1745 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
1746 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
1747 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
1748 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
1749 also been removed.
1750 [Matt Caswell]
1751
1752 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
1753 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
1754 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
1755 [Rich Salz]
1756
1757 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
1758 [Rich Salz]
1759
1760 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
1761 sureware and ubsec.
1762 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
1763
1764 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
1765
1766 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
1767 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
1768
1769 FOO *x;
1770
1771 it must be:
1772
1773 FOO x;
1774
1775 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
1776 set a mandatory field to NULL.
1777
1778 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
1779 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
1780 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
1781 SEQUENCE OF.
1782 [Steve Henson]
1783
1784 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
1785 [Emilia Käsper]
1786
1787 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
1788 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
1789 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
1790 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
1791 [Matt Caswell]
1792
1793 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
1794 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
1795 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
1796 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
1797 [Emilia Käsper]
1798
1799 *) Fix no-stdio build.
1800 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
1801 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
1802
1803 *) New testing framework
1804 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
1805 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
1806 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
1807 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
1808 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
1809 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
1810
1811 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
1812
1813 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
1814 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
1815
1816 [Richard Levitte]
1817
1818 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
1819 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
1820 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
1821 and others were changed. All are now documented.
1822 [Rich Salz]
1823
1824 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
1825 return an error
1826 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
1827
1828 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
1829 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
1830
1831 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
1832 original RSA_PSK patch.
1833 [Steve Henson]
1834
1835 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
1836 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
1837 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
1838 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
1839 [Matt Caswell]
1840
1841 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
1842 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
1843 [Richard Levitte]
1844
1845 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
1846 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
1847 hasn't been working properly for a while.
1848 [Emilia Käsper]
1849
1850 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
1851 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
1852 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
1853 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
1854 transferred.
1855 [Matt Caswell]
1856
1857 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
1858 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
1859 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
1860 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
1861 [Matt Caswell]
1862
1863 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
1864 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
1865 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
1866 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
1867 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
1868 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
1869 [Matt Caswell]
1870
1871 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
1872 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
1873 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
1874 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
1875 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
1876 header file has been removed.
1877 [Matt Caswell]
1878
1879 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
1880 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
1881 [Matt Caswell]
1882
1883 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
1884 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
1885 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
1886
1887 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
1888 Added a test.
1889 [Rich Salz]
1890
1891 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
1892 [Rich Salz]
1893
1894 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
1895 sha256
1896 [Rich Salz]
1897
1898 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
1899 [Matt Caswell]
1900
1901 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
1902 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
1903 initial patch which was a great help during development.
1904 [Steve Henson]
1905
1906 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
1907 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
1908 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
1909 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
1910 [Matt Caswell]
1911
1912 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
1913 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
1914 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
1915 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
1916 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
1917 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
1918 [Matt Caswell]
1919
1920 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
1921 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
1922 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
1923 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
1924 [Matt Caswell]
1925
1926 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
1927 compatible client hello.
1928 [Kurt Roeckx]
1929
1930 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
1931 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
1932 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
1933
1934 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
1935 [Rich Salz]
1936
1937 *) Removed old DES API.
1938 [Rich Salz]
1939
1940 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
1941 Sony NEWS4
1942 BEOS and BEOS_R5
1943 NeXT
1944 SUNOS
1945 MPE/iX
1946 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
1947 DGUX
1948 NCR
1949 Tandem
1950 Cray
1951 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
1952 [Rich Salz]
1953
1954 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
1955 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
1956 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
1957 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
1958 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
1959 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
1960 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
1961 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
1962 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
1963 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
1964 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
1965 [Rich Salz]
1966
1967 *) Cleaned up dead code
1968 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
1969 [Rich Salz]
1970
1971 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
1972 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
1973 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
1974 [Rich Salz]
1975
1976 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
1977 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
1978 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
1979 [Rich Salz]
1980
1981 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
1982 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
1983 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
1984
1985 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
1986 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
1987 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
1988
1989 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1990 compilation flags.
1991 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1992
1993 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1994 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1995 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1996
1997 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1998 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1999
2000 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
2001 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
2002 server.
2003
2004 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
2005 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
2006 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
2007 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
2008
2009 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
2010 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
2011 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
2012 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
2013
2014 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
2015 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
2016 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
2017
2018 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2019 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2020 [Steve Henson]
2021
2022 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
2023
2024 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
2025 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
2026
2027 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
2028 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
2029
2030 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
2031 effect.
2032
2033 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
2034
2035 [Steve Henson]
2036
2037 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2038 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2039 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2040 algorithms and include tests cases.
2041 [Steve Henson]
2042
2043 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
2044 enveloped data.
2045 [Steve Henson]
2046
2047 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2048 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2049 [Steve Henson]
2050
2051 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
2052 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
2053
2054 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
2055 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
2056 [Steve Henson]
2057
2058 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
2059 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
2060 failures.
2061 [Steve Henson]
2062
2063 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
2064 sign or verify all in one operation.
2065 [Steve Henson]
2066
2067 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
2068 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
2069 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
2070 [Steve Henson]
2071
2072 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
2073 [Steve Henson]
2074
2075 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
2076 [Steve Henson]
2077
2078 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
2079 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
2080 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
2081 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
2082 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
2083 [Steve Henson]
2084
2085 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
2086 based on NID.
2087 [Steve Henson]
2088
2089 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
2090 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
2091 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
2092 [Steve Henson]
2093
2094 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
2095 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
2096
2097 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
2098 POST to handle HMAC cases.
2099 [Steve Henson]
2100
2101 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
2102 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
2103 [Steve Henson]
2104
2105 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
2106 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
2107 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2108 [Steve Henson]
2109
2110 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
2111 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
2112 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
2113 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
2114 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
2115 requested amount of entropy.
2116 [Steve Henson]
2117
2118 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
2119 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
2120 [Steve Henson]
2121
2122 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
2123 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
2124 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
2125 support.
2126 [Steve Henson]
2127
2128 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
2129 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
2130 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
2131 [Steve Henson]
2132
2133 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
2134 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
2135 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
2136 will never use XTS mode.
2137 [Steve Henson]
2138
2139 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
2140 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
2141 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
2142 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
2143 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
2144 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
2145 [Steve Henson]
2146
2147 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
2148 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
2149 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
2150 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
2151 [Steve Henson]
2152
2153 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
2154 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
2155 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
2156 [Steve Henson]
2157
2158 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
2159 [Steve Henson]
2160
2161 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
2162 [Steve Henson]
2163
2164 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
2165 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
2166 [Steve Henson]
2167
2168 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
2169 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
2170 [Steve Henson]
2171
2172 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
2173 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
2174 [Steve Henson]
2175
2176 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
2177 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
2178 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
2179 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
2180 and rename any affected symbols.
2181 [Steve Henson]
2182
2183 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
2184 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
2185 [Steve Henson]
2186
2187 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
2188 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
2189 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
2190 [Steve Henson]
2191
2192 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2193 [Steve Henson]
2194
2195 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
2196 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
2197 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
2198 [Steve Henson]
2199
2200 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
2201 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
2202 [Steve Henson]
2203
2204 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
2205 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
2206 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
2207 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
2208 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
2209 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
2210 set before the key.
2211 [Steve Henson]
2212
2213 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
2214 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
2215 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
2216 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
2217 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
2218 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
2219 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
2220 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
2221 [Steve Henson]
2222
2223 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
2224 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
2225 [Steve Henson]
2226
2227 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
2228
2229 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2230 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2231
2232 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
2233 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
2234 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
2235 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
2236 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
2237 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
2238
2239 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
2240 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
2241 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
2242 security.
2243 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2244
2245 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
2246 parameters by name.
2247 [Steve Henson]
2248
2249 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
2250 Add CMAC pkey methods.
2251 [Steve Henson]
2252
2253 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
2254 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
2255 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
2256 [Steve Henson]
2257
2258 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
2259 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
2260 multi-process servers.
2261 [Steve Henson]
2262
2263 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
2264 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
2265 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
2266 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
2267 RAND_METHOD structure.
2268 [Steve Henson]
2269
2270 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
2271 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
2272 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
2273 whose return value is often ignored.
2274 [Steve Henson]
2275
2276 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
2277 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
2278 validated when establishing a connection.

2281 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
2282
2283 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
2284
2285 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
2286 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
2287 AES-NI.
2288
2289 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
2290 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
2291 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
2292 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
2293 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
2294 bytes.
2295
2296 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
2297 (CVE-2016-2107)
2298 [Kurt Roeckx]
2299
2300 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
2301
2302 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
2303 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
2304 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
2305 corruption.
2306
2307 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
2308 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
2309 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
2310 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
2311 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
2312 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
2313
2314 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2315 (CVE-2016-2105)
2316 [Matt Caswell]
2317
2318 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
2319
2320 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
2321 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
2322 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
2323 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
2324 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
2325 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
2326 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
2327 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
2328 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
2329 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
2330 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
2331 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
2332 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
2333 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
2334 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
2335 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
2336
2337 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2338 (CVE-2016-2106)
2339 [Matt Caswell]
2340
2341 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2342
2343 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2344 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2345 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2346
2347 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2348 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2349 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2350 applications are not affected.
2351
2352 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
2353 (CVE-2016-2109)
2354 [Stephen Henson]
2355
2356 *) EBCDIC overread
2357
2358 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2359 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2360 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
2361
2362 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2363 (CVE-2016-2176)
2364 [Matt Caswell]
2365
2366 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2367 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2368 [Todd Short]
2369
2370 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
2371 default.
2372 [Kurt Roeckx]
2373
2374 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
2375 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
2376 [Kurt Roeckx]
2377
2378 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2379
2380 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2381 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2382 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2383 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2384
2385 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2386 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2387 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2388 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2389 will need to explicitly call either of:
2390
2391 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2392 or
2393 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2394
2395 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2396 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2397 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2398 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2399 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
2400 (CVE-2016-0800)
2401 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2402
2403 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2404
2405 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2406 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2407 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2408 considered rare.
2409
2410 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2411 libFuzzer.
2412 (CVE-2016-0705)
2413 [Stephen Henson]
2414
2415 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2416
2417 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2418
2419 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2420 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2421 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2422 is configured.
2423
2424 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2425 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2426 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2427 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2428 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2429 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2430 that of a valid user.
2431 (CVE-2016-0798)
2432 [Emilia Käsper]
2433
2434 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2435
2436 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2437 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2438 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2439 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2440 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2441 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2442 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2443 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2444 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2445 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2446 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2447
2448 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2449 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2450 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2451 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2452 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.

2458 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2459
2460 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2461 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2462 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2463
2464 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2465 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2466 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2467 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2468 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2469 also occur.
2470
2471 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2472 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2473 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2474 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2475 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2476 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2477 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2478 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2479 as command line arguments.
2480
2481 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2482 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2483 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.

2486 (CVE-2016-0799)
2487 [Matt Caswell]
2488
2489 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2490
2491 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2492 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2493 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2494 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2495 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2496
2497 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2498 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
2499 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
2500 http://cachebleed.info.

2503
2504 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
2505 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
2506 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
2507 apps to use 2048 bits by default.

2509
2510 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2511 *) DH small subgroups
2512
2513 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2514 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2515 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2516 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2517 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2518 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2519 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2520 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2521 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2522 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2523
2524 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2525 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2526 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2527 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2528 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2529
2530 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2531 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2532 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2533 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2534
2535 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2536 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
2537
2538 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
2539 (CVE-2016-0701)
2540 [Matt Caswell]
2541
2542 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
2543
2544 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
2545 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
2546 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2547 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

2555
2556 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2557
2558 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2559 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2560 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2561 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2562 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2563 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2564 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2565 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2566 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2567 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2568 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2569 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2573 [Andy Polyakov]
2574
2575 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
2576
2577 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2578 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2579 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2580 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2581 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
2582 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
2583 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
2584 authentication.
2585
2586 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).

2588 [Stephen Henson]
2589
2590 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
2591
2592 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
2593 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
2594 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
2595 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
2596
2597 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
2598 libFuzzer.

2600 [Stephen Henson]
2601
2602 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2603 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,

2612 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
2613
2614 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
2615
2616 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
2617 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2618 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2619 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2620 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2621 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.

2634 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
2635
2636 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
2637
2638 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
2639 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
2640 field.
2641
2642 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
2643 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
2644 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
2645 client authentication enabled.
2646
2647 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
2648 (CVE-2015-1788)
2649 [Andy Polyakov]
2650
2651 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
2652
2653 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
2654 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
2655 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
2656 time string.
2657
2658 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
2659 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
2660 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
2661 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
2662 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
2663 callbacks.
2664
2665 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
2666 independently by Hanno Böck.

2669
2670 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
2671
2672 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
2673 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
2674 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2675
2676 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
2677 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
2678 servers are not affected.

2682 [Emilia Käsper]
2683
2684 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
2685
2686 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
2687 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
2688 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
2689 the CMS code.

2709 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
2710
2711 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
2712 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
2713 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
2714
2715 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
2716 University.
2717 (CVE-2015-0291)
2718 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
2719
2720 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
2721
2722 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
2723 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
2724 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
2725 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
2726 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
2727 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
2728 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
2729 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
2730
2731 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
2732 (CVE-2015-0290)
2733 [Matt Caswell]
2734
2735 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
2736
2737 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
2738 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
2739 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
2740 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
2741 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
2742 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
2743 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
2744 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
2745 server.

2747 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
2748 (CVE-2015-0207)
2749 [Matt Caswell]
2750
2751 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
2752
2753 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
2754 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
2755 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
2756 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2757 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2758 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2759 (CVE-2015-0286)
2760 [Stephen Henson]
2761
2762 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
2763
2764 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2765 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2766 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
2767 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
2768 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2769 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2770 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.

2772 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
2773 (CVE-2015-0208)
2774 [Stephen Henson]
2775
2776 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
2777
2778 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
2779 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
2780 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
2781
2782 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
2783 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
2784 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
2785 not affected.
2786 (CVE-2015-0287)
2787 [Stephen Henson]
2788
2789 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
2790
2791 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
2792 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
2793 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2794
2795 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
2796 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
2797 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
2798

2801 [Emilia Käsper]
2802
2803 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
2804
2805 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
2806 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
2807 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
2808
2809 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
2810 (OpenSSL development team).
2811 (CVE-2015-0293)
2812 [Emilia Käsper]
2813
2814 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
2815
2816 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
2817 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
2818 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
2819 (CVE-2015-1787)
2820 [Matt Caswell]
2821
2822 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
2823
2824 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
2825 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
2826 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
2827 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
2828 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
2829 SSL_client_methodv23)
2830 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
2831 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
2832
2833 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
2834 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
2835 output may be predictable.
2836
2837 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
2838 succeed on an unpatched platform:
2839
2840 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA

2843
2844 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
2845
2846 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
2847 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
2848 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
2849 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
2850 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
2851 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
2852
2853 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their

2861 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.

2871
2872 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
2873 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
2874 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
2875 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
2876 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
2877 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.

2887
2888 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)

2890 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2891 [Bodo Moeller]
2892
2893 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
2894 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
2895 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
2896 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
2897 [Andy Polyakov]
2898
2899 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
2900 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
2901
2902 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
2903 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases

2909 [Andy Polyakov]
2910
2911 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
2912 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,

2922 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
2923 for TLS encrypt.
2924
2925 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
2926 [Andy Polyakov]
2927
2928 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
2929 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
2930 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
2931 [Steve Henson]
2932
2933 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():

2939 [Steve Henson]
2940
2941 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2942 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2943 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap

2951 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
2952 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
2953 [Steve Henson]
2954
2955 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
2956 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
2957 summary of the connection parameters.
2958 [Steve Henson]
2959
2960 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
2961 of connection parameters.
2962 [Steve Henson]
2963
2964 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
2965 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
2966
2967 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
2968 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
2969 [Steve Henson]
2970
2971 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
2972 [Steve Henson]
2973
2974 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
2975 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
2976 [Steve Henson]
2977
2978 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
2979 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
2980 [Steve Henson]
2981
2982 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
2983 certificates.
2984 [Steve Henson]
2985
2986 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
2987 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
2988 CRLs using the OCSP API.
2989 [Steve Henson]
2990
2991 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
2992 [Steve Henson]
2993
2994 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
2995 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
2996 [Steve Henson]
2997
2998 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
2999 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
3000 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
3001 tracing.
3002 [Steve Henson]
3003
3004 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
3005 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
3006 [Steve Henson]
3007
3008 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
3009 OID NID.
3010 [Steve Henson]
3011
3012 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
3013 client to OpenSSL.
3014 [Steve Henson]
3015
3016 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
3017 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
3018 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
3019 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
3020 [Steve Henson]
3021
3022 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
3023 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
3024 [Steve Henson]
3025
3026 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
3027 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
3028 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
3029 comparison.
3030 [Steve Henson]
3031
3032 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
3033 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
3034 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
3035 use the certificate.
3036 [Steve Henson]
3037
3038 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
3039 [Steve Henson]
3040
3041 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
3042 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
3043 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
3044 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
3045 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
3046 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
3047 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
3048
3049 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
3050 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
3051
3052 [Steve Henson]
3053
3054 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
3055 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
3056 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
3057 [Steve Henson]
3058
3059 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
3060 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
3061 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
3062 supported signature algorithms.
3063 [Steve Henson]
3064
3065 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
3066 [Steve Henson]
3067
3068 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
3069 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
3070 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
3071 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
3072 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
3073 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
3074 certificate and specify the whole chain.
3075 [Steve Henson]
3076
3077 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
3078 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
3079 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
3080 to have similar checks in it.
3081
3082 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
3083 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
3084 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
3085 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
3086 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
3087 [Steve Henson]
3088
3089 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
3090 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
3091 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
3092 shared signature algorithms.
3093 [Steve Henson]
3094
3095 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
3096 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
3097 to support them.
3098 [Steve Henson]
3099
3100 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
3101 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
3102 it couldn't be removed.
3103 [Steve Henson]
3104
3105 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
3106 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
3107 [Steve Henson]
3108
3109 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
3110 functions. Add manual page.
3111 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
3112
3113 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
3114 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
3115 a certificate.
3116 [Steve Henson]
3117
3118 *) Fix OCSP checking.
3119 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
3120
3121 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
3122 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
3123 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
3124 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
3125 utility) or reject.
3126 [Steve Henson]
3127
3128 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
3129 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
3130 [Steve Henson]
3131
3132 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
3133 platform support for Linux and Android.
3134 [Andy Polyakov]
3135
3136 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
3137 [Andy Polyakov]
3138
3139 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
3140 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
3141 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
3142 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
3143 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
3144 [Steve Henson]
3145
3146 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
3147 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
3148 the new parameter format automatically.
3149 [Steve Henson]
3150
3151 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
3152 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
3153 [Steve Henson]
3154
3155 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
3156 [Steve Henson]
3157
3158 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
3159 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
3160 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
3161 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
3162 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
3163 [Steve Henson]
3164
3165 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
3166 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
3167 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
3168 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
3169 to set list of supported curves.
3170 [Steve Henson]
3171
3172 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
3173 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
3174 to print out received values.
3175 [Steve Henson]
3176
3177 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
3178 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
3179 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
3180 [Steve Henson]
3181
3182 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
3183 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
3184 [Steve Henson]
3185
3186 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
3187 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
3188 [Steve Henson]
3189
3190 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
3191 certificates.
3192 [Steve Henson]
3193
3194 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
3195 the certificate.
3196 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
3197 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
3198 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
3199
3200 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
3201
3202 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
3203 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
3204
3205 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
3206
3207 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
3208 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
3209 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
3210 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
3211 (CVE-2014-3571)
3212 [Steve Henson]
3213
3214 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
3215 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
3216 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
3217 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
3218 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
3219 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
3220 (CVE-2015-0206)
3221 [Matt Caswell]
3222
3223 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
3224 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
3225 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
3226 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
3227 (CVE-2014-3569)
3228 [Kurt Roeckx]
3229
3230 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
3231 ECDH ciphersuites.
3232
3233 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
3234 reporting this issue.
3235 (CVE-2014-3572)
3236 [Steve Henson]
3237
3238 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
3239 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
3240 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
3241 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
3242 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
3243 INRIA or reporting this issue.
3244 (CVE-2015-0204)
3245 [Steve Henson]
3246
3247 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
3248 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
3249 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
3250 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
3251 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
3252 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
3253 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
3254 this issue.
3255 (CVE-2015-0205)
3256 [Steve Henson]
3257
3258 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
3259 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
3260
3261 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
3262 and can vary with the CTX.
3263 [Adam Langley]
3264
3265 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
3266
3267 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
3268 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
3269 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
3270 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
3271 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
3272
3273 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
3274
3275 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
3276 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
3277
3278 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
3279
3280 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
3281 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
3282 errors for some broken certificates.
3283
3284 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
3285
3286 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
3287
3288 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
3289 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
3290
3291 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
3292 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
3293 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
3294 (negative or with leading zeroes).
3295
3296 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
3297 of the OpenSSL core team.
3298
3299 (CVE-2014-8275)
3300 [Steve Henson]
3301
3302 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
3303 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
3304 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
3305 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
3306 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
3307 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
3308 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
3309 the OpenSSL core team.
3310 (CVE-2014-3570)
3311 [Andy Polyakov]
3312
3313 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
3314 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
3315 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
3316 sanity and breaks all known clients.
3317 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
3318
3319 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
3320 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
3321 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
3322 [Emilia Käsper]
3323
3324 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
3325 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
3326 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3327 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
3328 announced in the initial ServerHello.
3329
3330 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
3331 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3332 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
3333 [Emilia Käsper]
3334
3335 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
3336
3337 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
3338
3339 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
3340 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
3341 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3342 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3343 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3344 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3345 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3346
3347 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3348 (CVE-2014-3513)
3349 [OpenSSL team]
3350
3351 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3352
3353 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3354 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3355 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3356 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3357 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3358 attack.
3359 (CVE-2014-3567)
3360 [Steve Henson]
3361
3362 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3363
3364 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3365 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3366 configured to send them.
3367 (CVE-2014-3568)
3368 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3369
3370 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3371 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3372 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3373 (CVE-2014-3566)
3374 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3375
3376 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3377
3378 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3379 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3380 DigestInfo structures.
3381
3382 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
3383
3384 [Steve Henson]
3385
3386 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3387
3388 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3389 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3390 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3391
3392 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3393 Group for discovering this issue.
3394 (CVE-2014-3512)
3395 [Steve Henson]
3396
3397 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3398 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3399 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3400 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3401 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3402
3403 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3404 researching this issue.
3405 (CVE-2014-3511)
3406 [David Benjamin]
3407
3408 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3409 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3410 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3411 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3412
3413 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3414 issue.
3415 (CVE-2014-3510)
3416 [Emilia Käsper]
3417
3418 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3419 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3420 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3421 (CVE-2014-3507)
3422 [Adam Langley]
3423
3424 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3425 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3426 Denial of Service attack.
3427 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3428 (CVE-2014-3506)
3429 [Adam Langley]
3430
3431 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3432 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3433 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3434 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3435 this issue.
3436 (CVE-2014-3505)
3437 [Adam Langley]
3438
3439 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3440 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3441 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3442
3443 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3444 issue.
3445 (CVE-2014-3509)
3446 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3447
3448 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3449 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3450 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3451 Denial of Service attack.
3452
3453 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3454 discovering and researching this issue.
3455 (CVE-2014-5139)
3456 [Steve Henson]
3457
3458 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3459 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3460 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3461 output to the attacker.
3462
3463 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3464 (CVE-2014-3508)
3465 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3466
3467 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3468 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3469 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3470 [Bodo Moeller]
3471
3472 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3473
3474 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3475 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3476 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3477
3478 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3479 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3480 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3481
3482 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3483 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3484 in a DoS attack.
3485
3486 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3487 (CVE-2014-0221)
3488 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3489
3490 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3491 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3492 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3493 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3494
3495 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3496 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3497
3498 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3499 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3500
3501 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3502 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3503 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3504
3505 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3506 compilation flags.
3507 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3508
3509 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3510 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3511 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3512
3513 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3514 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3515
3516 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3517
3518 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3519 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3520 server.
3521
3522 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3523 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3524 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3525 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3526
3527 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3528 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3529 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3530 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3531
3532 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3533 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3534 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3535
3536 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3537
3538 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3539 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3540 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3541 is at least 512 bytes long.
3542
3543 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
3544
3545 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3546
3547 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3548 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3549 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3550 (CVE-2013-4353)
3551
3552 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3553 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3554 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3555 [Steve Henson]
3556
3557 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3558 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3559 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3560 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3561 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3562 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3563 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3564
3565 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3566
3567 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3568 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3569 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3570
3571 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3572
3573 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3574
3575 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3576 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3577 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3578
3579 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3580 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3581 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
3582 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
3583 (CVE-2013-0169)
3584 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3585
3586 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3587 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3588 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
3589 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
3590 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
3591 (CVE-2012-2686)
3592 [Adam Langley]
3593
3594 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3595 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3596 [Steve Henson]
3597
3598 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3599 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3600
3601 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3602 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3603 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3604 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
3605 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
3606
3607 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3608 [Steve Henson]
3609
3610 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3611 if renegotiating.
3612 [Steve Henson]
3613
3614 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3615
3616 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3617 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3618
3619 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3620 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3621 (CVE-2012-2333)
3622 [Steve Henson]
3623
3624 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3625 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3626 [Steve Henson]
3627
3628 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3629 approved.
3630 [Steve Henson]
3631
3632 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
3633
3634 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
3635 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
3636 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
3637 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
3638 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
3639 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
3640 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
3641 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
3642 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
3643 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
3644 [Steve Henson]
3645
3646 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
3647 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
3648 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
3649 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
3650 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
3651 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
3652 client side.
3653 [Andy Polyakov]
3654
3655 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
3656
3657 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
3658 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
3659 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
3660
3661 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
3662 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
3663 (CVE-2012-2110)
3664 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
3665
3666 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
3667 [Adam Langley]
3668
3669 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
3670 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
3671
3672 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
3673 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
3674 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
3675 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
3676 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
3677 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
3678 Most broken servers should now work.
3679 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
3680 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
3681 [Steve Henson]
3682
3683 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
3684 [Andy Polyakov]
3685
3686 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
3687
3688 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
3689 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
3690 [Steve Henson]
3691
3692 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
3693 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
3694 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
3695 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
3696 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
3697 [Steve Henson]
3698
3699 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
3700 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
3701 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
3702 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
3703 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
3704 [Steve Henson]
3705
3706 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
3707 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3708
3709 *) Add support for SCTP.
3710 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3711
3712 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3713 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3714
3715 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
3716
3717 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
3718 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
3719 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
3720 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
3721 - s390x: z196 support;
3722 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
3723
3724 [Andy Polyakov]
3725
3726 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
3727 (removal of unnecessary code)
3728 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
3729
3730 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
3731 [Eric Rescorla]
3732
3733 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
3734 [Eric Rescorla]
3735
3736 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
3737 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
3738 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
3739 by Google.
3740 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3741
3742 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
3743 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
3744 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
3745 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
3746 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
3747
3748 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
3749 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
3750 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
3751
3752 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
3753 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
3754 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
3755
3756 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
3757 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
3758 implementations).
3759 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3760
3761 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instead of ssize_t which isn't available on
3762 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
3763 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
3764 [Steve Henson]
3765
3766 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
3767 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
3768 particular PSS.
3769 [Steve Henson]
3770
3771 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
3772 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
3773 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
3774 [Steve Henson]
3775
3776 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
3777 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
3778 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
3779 the appropriate parameters.
3780 [Steve Henson]
3781
3782 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
3783 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
3784 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
3785 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
3786 against a number of sample certificates.
3787 [Steve Henson]
3788
3789 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
3790 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
3791
3792 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
3793 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
3794
3795 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
3796 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
3797 parameters r, s.
3798 [Steve Henson]
3799
3800 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
3801 RFC3211.
3802 [Steve Henson]
3803
3804 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
3805 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
3806 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
3807 password based CMS).
3808 [Steve Henson]
3809
3810 *) Session-handling fixes:
3811 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
3812 but also support Session Tickets.
3813 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
3814 presented a ticket with an expired session.
3815 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
3816 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
3817 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
3818 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3819
3820 *) Fix PSK session representation.
3821 [Bodo Moeller]
3822
3823 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
3824
3825 This work was sponsored by Intel.
3826 [Andy Polyakov]
3827
3828 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
3829 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
3830 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
3831 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
3832 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
3833 [Steve Henson]
3834
3835 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
3836 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
3837 [Steve Henson]
3838
3839 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
3840 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
3841 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
3842 [Steve Henson]
3843
3844 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
3845 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
3846 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
3847 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
3848 [Steve Henson]
3849
3850 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
3851 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
3852 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
3853 [Steve Henson]
3854
3855 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
3856 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
3857
3858 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
3859 [Steve Henson]
3860
3861 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
3862 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
3863 [Steve Henson]
3864
3865 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
3866 [Steve Henson]
3867
3868 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
3869 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
3870 [Steve Henson]
3871
3872 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
3873 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
3874 [Steve Henson]
3875
3876 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
3877 [Steve Henson]
3878
3879 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
3880 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
3881 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
3882 [Steve Henson]
3883
3884 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3885 [Steve Henson]
3886
3887 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3888 [Steve Henson]
3889
3890 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
3891 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
3892 [Steve Henson]
3893
3894 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
3895 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
3896 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
3897 [Steve Henson]
3898
3899 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
3900 [Steve Henson]
3901
3902 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
3903 and enable MD5.
3904 [Steve Henson]
3905
3906 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
3907 FIPS modules versions.
3908 [Steve Henson]
3909
3910 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
3911 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
3912 until after the certificate request message is received.
3913 [Steve Henson]
3914
3915 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
3916 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
3917 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
3918 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
3919 [Steve Henson]
3920
3921 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
3922 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
3923 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
3924 support yet and no support for client certificates.
3925 [Steve Henson]
3926
3927 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
3928 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
3929 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
3930 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
3931 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
3932 and version checking.
3933 [Steve Henson]
3934
3935 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
3936 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
3937 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
3938 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
3939 [Steve Henson]
3940
3941 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
3942 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
3943 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
3944 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
3945 Ben Laurie]
3946
3947 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
3948 [Steve Henson]
3949
3950 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
3951 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
3952 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3953
3954 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
3955 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
3956 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
3957 [Steve Henson]
3958
3959 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
3960 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
3961
3962 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
3963 a few changes are required:
3964
3965 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
3966 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
3967 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
3968 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
3969 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
3970 [Steve Henson]
3971
3972 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
3973
3974 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
3975 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
3976 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
3977 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
3978 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3979 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
3980 an MMA defence is not necessary.
3981 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
3982 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
3983 [Steve Henson]
3984
3985 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
3986 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
3987 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
3988 [Steve Henson]
3989
3990 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
3991
3992 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
3993 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
3994 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
3995 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
3996 [Antonio Martin]
3997
3998 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
3999
4000 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
4001 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
4002 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
4003 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
4004 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
4005 paper describing this attack can be found at:
4006 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
4007 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
4008 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
4009 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
4010 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
4011 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
4012 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
4013
4014 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
4015 (CVE-2011-4576)
4016 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4017
4018 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
4019 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
4020 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
4021 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4022
4023 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
4024 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
4025
4026 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
4027 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
4028 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
4029 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
4030
4031 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
4032 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
4033
4034 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
4035 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4036
4037 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
4038 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
4039
4040 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
4041 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
4042 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4043
4044 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
4045 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
4046 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
4047
4048 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
4049 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
4050 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
4051 the last update always remained unused).
4052 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
4053
4054 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
4055 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
4056
4057 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
4058
4059 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
4060 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
4061 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
4062
4063 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
4064 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
4065 [Adam Langley (Google)]
4066
4067 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
4068 [Bodo Moeller]
4069
4070 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
4071 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
4072 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
4073 [Steve Henson]
4074
4075 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
4076 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
4077
4078 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
4079
4080 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
4081
4082 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
4083
4084 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
4085 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4086
4087 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
4088 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
4089 ambiguous.
4090 [Steve Henson]
4091
4092 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
4093
4094 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
4095 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
4096 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
4097 [Steve Henson]
4098
4099 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
4100 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
4101 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
4102 [Ben Laurie]
4103
4104 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
4105
4106 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
4107 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
4108 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
4109 [Steve Henson]
4110
4111 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
4112 a DLL.
4113 [Steve Henson]
4114
4115 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
4116
4117 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
4118 (CVE-2010-1633)
4119 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
4120
4121 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
4122
4123 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
4124 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
4125 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
4126 [Steve Henson]
4127
4128 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
4129 [Steve Henson]
4130
4131 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
4132 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
4133 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
4134
4135 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
4136 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
4137 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
4138 [Steve Henson]
4139
4140 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
4141 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
4142 [Steve Henson]
4143
4144 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
4145 some responders need this.
4146 [Steve Henson]
4147
4148 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
4149 correctly.
4150 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4151
4152 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
4153 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
4154 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
4155 [Steve Henson]
4156
4157 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
4158 [Steve Henson]
4159
4160 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
4161 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
4162 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
4163 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
4164 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
4165 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
4166 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
4167 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
4168 [Steve Henson]
4169
4170 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
4171 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
4172 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
4173 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4174
4175 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
4176 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
4177
4178 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
4179 be used on C++.
4180 [Steve Henson]
4181
4182 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
4183 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
4184 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
4185 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
4186 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
4187 attempting to work them out.
4188 [Steve Henson]
4189
4190 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
4191 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
4192 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
4193 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
4194 [Steve Henson]
4195
4196 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
4197 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
4198 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
4199 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
4200 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
4201 [Steve Henson]
4202
4203 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
4204 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
4205 you can do:
4206
4207 openssl sha256 foo
4208
4209 as well as:
4210
4211 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
4212
4213 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
4214
4215 [Steve Henson]
4216
4217 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
4218 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4219
4220 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
4221 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
4222
4223 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
4224 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
4225 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
4226 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
4227 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
4228 [Steve Henson]
4229
4230 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
4231 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
4232 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
4233 [Steve Henson]
4234
4235 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
4236 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
4237 [Steve Henson]
4238
4239 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
4240 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
4241
4242 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
4243 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
4244 [Steve Henson]
4245
4246 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
4247 [Ben Laurie]
4248
4249 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
4250 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
4251 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
4252 CONF_VALUE.
4253 [Ben Laurie]
4254
4255 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
4256 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
4257 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
4258 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
4259 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
4260 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
4261 [Steve Henson]
4262
4263 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
4264 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
4265
4266 This work was sponsored by Google.
4267 [Steve Henson]
4268
4269 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
4270 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
4271 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
4272 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
4273 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
4274 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
4275 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
4276 default.
4277
4278 This work was sponsored by Google.
4279 [Steve Henson]
4280
4281 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
4282
4283 This work was sponsored by Google.
4284 [Steve Henson]
4285
4286 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
4287 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
4288 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4289 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
4290
4291 This work was sponsored by Google.
4292 [Steve Henson]
4293
4294 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
4295 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
4296 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
4297 CRL functionality in future.
4298
4299 This work was sponsored by Google.
4300 [Steve Henson]
4301
4302 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
4303
4304 This work was sponsored by Google.
4305 [Steve Henson]
4306
4307 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
4308 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
4309
4310 This work was sponsored by Google.
4311 [Steve Henson]
4312
4313 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
4314 and URI types are currently supported.
4315
4316 This work was sponsored by Google.
4317 [Steve Henson]
4318
4319 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
4320 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
4321 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
4322 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
4323 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
4324 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
4325 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
4326 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
4327
4328 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
4329 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
4330 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
4331
4332 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
4333 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
4334 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
4335 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
4336
4337 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
4338 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
4339 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
4340 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
4341 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4342 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4343 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4344 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4345 of &errno.)
4346 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4347
4348 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4349 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4350 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4351
4352 This work was sponsored by Google.
4353 [Steve Henson]
4354
4355 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4356 [Ben Laurie]
4357
4358 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4359 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4360 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4361 [Ben Laurie]
4362
4363 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4364 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4365 [Nick Mathewson]
4366
4367 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4368 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4369 [Ben Laurie]
4370
4371 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4372 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4373 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4374 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4375 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4376 content types and variants.
4377 [Steve Henson]
4378
4379 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4380 [Steve Henson]
4381
4382 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4383 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4384 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4385 files from the associated perl scripts.
4386 [Steve Henson]
4387
4388 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4389 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4390 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4391
4392 *) s390x assembler pack.
4393 [Andy Polyakov]
4394
4395 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4396 "family."
4397 [Andy Polyakov]
4398
4399 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4400 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4401 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4402 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4403 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4404 to use. For example, specify an option
4405
4406 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4407
4408 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4409 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4410 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4411 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4412 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4413 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4414
4415 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4416 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4417 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4418 return non-zero for success.
4419
4420 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4421 by using
4422
4423 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4424 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4425
4426 where
4427
4428 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4429 void *arg;
4430
4431 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4432 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4433 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4434 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4435 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4436 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4437 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4438 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4439 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4440
4441 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4442 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4443 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4444 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4445 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4446 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4447
4448 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4449 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4450 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4451 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4452 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4453 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4454
4455 [Bodo Moeller]
4456
4457 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4458 MAC.
4459
4460 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4461
4462 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4463 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4464 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4465 supported.
4466
4467 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4468 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4469 SSL_SESSION.
4470
4471 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4472 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4473 with no application modification.
4474
4475 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4476 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4477
4478 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4479 or server extensions to be examined.
4480
4481 This work was sponsored by Google.
4482 [Steve Henson]
4483
4484 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4485 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4486 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4487
4488 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4489 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4490 ciphersuite support.
4491 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4492
4493 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4494 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4495 to output in BER and PEM format.
4496 [Steve Henson]
4497
4498 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4499 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4500 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4501 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4502 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4503 [Steve Henson]
4504
4505 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4506 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4507 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4508 utility.
4509 [Steve Henson]
4510
4511 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4512 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4513 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4514 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4515 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4516 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4517 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4518 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4519 enabled again.
4520
4521 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4522 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4523 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4524 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4525
4526 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4527 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4528 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4529 the default order.
4530 [Bodo Moeller]
4531
4532 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4533 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4534 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4535 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4536 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4537 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4538 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4539 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4540 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4541
4542 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4543 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4544 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4545 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4546 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4547 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4548 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4549 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4550 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4551 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4552 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4553 kinds of kludges.
4554
4555 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4556 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4557 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4558
4559 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4560 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4561 "CAMELLIA256".
4562 [Bodo Moeller]
4563
4564 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4565 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4566 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4567 [Nils Larsch]
4568
4569 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4570 it yet and it is largely untested.
4571 [Steve Henson]
4572
4573 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4574 [Nils Larsch]
4575
4576 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4577 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4578 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4579 [Steve Henson]
4580
4581 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4582 [Andy Polyakov]
4583
4584 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4585 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4586 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4587 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4588 [Steve Henson]
4589
4590 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4591 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4592 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4593 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4594 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4595 [Steve Henson]
4596
4597 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4598 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4599 [Cryptocom]
4600
4601 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4602 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4603 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4604 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4605 [Steve Henson]
4606
4607 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4608 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4609 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4610 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4611 [Steve Henson]
4612
4613 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4614 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4615 [Steve Henson]
4616
4617 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4618 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4619 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4620 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4621 [Steve Henson]
4622
4623 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4624 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4625 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4626 [Steve Henson]
4627
4628 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4629 utility.
4630 [Steve Henson]
4631
4632 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
4633 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
4634 [Steve Henson]
4635
4636 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
4637 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
4638 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
4639 if necessary.
4640 [Steve Henson]
4641
4642 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
4643 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
4644 to free up any added signature OIDs.
4645 [Steve Henson]
4646
4647 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
4648 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
4649 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
4650 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
4651 [Steve Henson]
4652
4653 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
4654 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
4655 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
4656 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
4657 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
4658 the array representation useful in a more general context.
4659 [Douglas Stebila]
4660
4661 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
4662 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
4663 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
4664 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
4665 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
4666
4667 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
4668 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
4669 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
4670 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
4671 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
4672 protocol).
4673
4674 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
4675 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
4676 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
4677 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
4678
4679 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
4680 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
4681 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
4682 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
4683 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
4684
4685 aECDH - ECDH cert
4686 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
4687 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
4688
4689 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
4690 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
4691
4692 [Bodo Moeller]
4693
4694 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
4695 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
4696 [Steve Henson]
4697
4698 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
4699 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
4700 [Steve Henson]
4701
4702 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
4703 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
4704 functional reference processing.
4705 [Steve Henson]
4706
4707 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
4708 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
4709 process.
4710 [Steve Henson]
4711
4712 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
4713 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
4714 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
4715 [Steve Henson]
4716
4717 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
4718 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
4719 application to support multiple signers.
4720 [Steve Henson]
4721
4722 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
4723 digest MAC.
4724 [Steve Henson]
4725
4726 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
4727 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
4728 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
4729 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
4730 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
4731 [Steve Henson]
4732
4733 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
4734 new API.
4735 [Steve Henson]
4736
4737 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
4738 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
4739 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
4740 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
4741 a no op.
4742 [Steve Henson]
4743
4744 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
4745 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
4746 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
4747 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
4748 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
4749 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
4750 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
4751 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
4752 [Steve Henson]
4753
4754 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
4755 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
4756 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
4757 between digests and public key types.
4758 [Steve Henson]
4759
4760 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
4761 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
4762 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
4763 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
4764 [Steve Henson]
4765
4766 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
4767 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
4768 key ASN1 method.
4769 [Steve Henson]
4770
4771 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
4772 [Steve Henson]
4773
4774 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
4775 pkeyutl.
4776 [Steve Henson]
4777
4778 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
4779 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
4780 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
4781 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
4782 pkey, genpkey.
4783 [Steve Henson]
4784
4785 *) BeOS support.
4786 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4787
4788 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
4789 manual pages.
4790 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4791
4792 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
4793 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
4794 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
4795 functionality for RSA.
4796 [Steve Henson]
4797
4798 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
4799 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
4800 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
4801 [Steve Henson]
4802
4803 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
4804 key API, doesn't do much yet.
4805 [Steve Henson]
4806
4807 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
4808 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
4809 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
4810 [Steve Henson]
4811
4812 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
4813 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4814 [Douglas Stebila]
4815
4816 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
4817 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
4818 [Steve Henson]
4819
4820 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
4821 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
4822 type.
4823 [Steve Henson]
4824
4825 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
4826 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
4827 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
4828 structure.
4829 [Steve Henson]
4830
4831 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
4832 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
4833 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
4834 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
4835 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
4836 of public and private key structures.
4837 [Steve Henson]
4838
4839 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
4840 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4841 [Douglas Stebila]
4842
4843 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
4844 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
4845 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
4846
4847 New ciphersuites:
4848 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
4849 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
4850
4851 New functions:
4852 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
4853 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
4854 SSL_get_psk_identity
4855 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
4856
4857 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
4858
4859 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
4860 and response verification functionality.
4861 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
4862
4863 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4864 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4865 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4866 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4867 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4868 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4869 server_name extension.
4870
4871 New functions (subject to change):
4872
4873 SSL_get_servername()
4874 SSL_get_servername_type()
4875 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4876
4877 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4878
4879 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4880 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4881 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4882 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4883 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4884
4885 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4886
4887 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4888 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4889 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4890 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4891 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4892 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4893 option.
4894
4895 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
4896
4897 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
4898 [Andy Polyakov]
4899
4900 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
4901 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
4902 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
4903 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
4904 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
4905 [Andy Polyakov]
4906
4907 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
4908 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
4909 macro.
4910 [Bodo Moeller]
4911
4912 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
4913 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
4914 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
4915 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
4916 [Andy Polyakov]
4917
4918 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
4919 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
4920 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
4921 using the maximum available value.
4922 [Steve Henson]
4923
4924 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
4925 in addition to the text details.
4926 [Bodo Moeller]
4927
4928 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
4929 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
4930 handle several customised structures at all.
4931 [Steve Henson]
4932
4933 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
4934 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
4935 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
4936 [Steve Henson]
4937
4938 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
4939 [Steve Henson]
4940
4941 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
4942 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
4943 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
4944 [Steve Henson]
4945
4946 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
4947 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
4948 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
4949 [Nils Larsch]
4950
4951 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
4952 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
4953 all fields.
4954 [Steve Henson]
4955
4956 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
4957 [Steve Henson]
4958
4959 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
4960 [NTT]
4961
4962 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
4963
4964 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
4965 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
4966 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
4967 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
4968 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
4969 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
4970 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
4971 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
4972
4973 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
4974 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
4975 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
4976
4977 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
4978
4979 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
4980 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
4981
4982 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
4983 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
4984 [Bodo Moeller]
4985
4986 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
4987 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
4988 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
4989 [Steve Henson]
4990
4991 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
4992 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
4993 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
4994 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
4995 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
4996 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
4997 [Steve Henson]
4998
4999 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
5000 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
5001 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
5002 [Steve Henson]
5003
5004 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
5005 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
5006 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
5007 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
5008 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
5009 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
5010 CVE-2009-4355.
5011 [Steve Henson]
5012
5013 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
5014 change when encrypting or decrypting.
5015 [Bodo Moeller]
5016
5017 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
5018 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
5019 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
5020 [Steve Henson]
5021
5022 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
5023 [Steve Henson]
5024
5025 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
5026 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
5027 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
5028 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
5029 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
5030 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
5031 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
5032 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
5033 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
5034 [Steve Henson]
5035
5036 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
5037 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
5038 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
5039 [Steve Henson]
5040
5041 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
5042 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
5043 [Steve Henson]
5044
5045 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
5046 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
5047 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
5048 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
5049 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
5050 know what you are doing.
5051 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
5052
5053 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
5054 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
5055 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
5056 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
5057 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
5058 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
5059 the handshake.
5060 [Steve Henson]
5061
5062 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
5063 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
5064 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
5065 correctly.
5066 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
5067
5068 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
5069 warnings in other configurations.
5070 [Steve Henson]
5071
5072 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
5073 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
5074 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
5075 systems need.
5076 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
5077
5078 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
5079 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
5080 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
5081
5082 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
5083 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
5084 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
5085 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
5086 [Steve Henson]
5087
5088 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
5089 and restored.
5090 [Steve Henson]
5091
5092 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
5093 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
5094 clash.
5095 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
5096
5097 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
5098 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
5099 other than a simple chain.
5100 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
5101
5102 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
5103 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
5104 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
5105 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
5106 [Steve Henson]
5107
5108 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
5109 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
5110 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
5111 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
5112 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
5113 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
5114 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
5115 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
5116 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5117
5118 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
5119 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
5120 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
5121 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
5122 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
5123 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
5124 (CVE-2009-1377)
5125 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5126
5127 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
5128 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
5129 [Daniel Mentz]
5130
5131 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
5132 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
5133
5134 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
5135 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
5136
5137 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
5138
5139 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
5140 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
5141 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
5142 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
5143 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
5144 you're doing.
5145 [Ben Laurie]
5146
5147 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
5148
5149 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
5150 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
5151 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
5152 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
5153
5154 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
5155 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
5156 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
5157 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5158
5159 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
5160 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
5161 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
5162 [Steve Henson]
5163
5164 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
5165 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
5166 level.
5167 [Steve Henson]
5168
5169 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
5170 to handle some structures.
5171 [Steve Henson]
5172
5173 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
5174 for a '\n'
5175 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
5176
5177 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
5178 [Matthieu Herrb]
5179
5180 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
5181 [Steve Henson]
5182
5183 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
5184 [Steve Henson]
5185
5186 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
5187 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
5188 chosen compiler.
5189 [Ben Laurie]
5190
5191 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
5192
5193 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
5194 (CVE-2008-5077).
5195 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
5196
5197 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
5198 [Ben Laurie]
5199
5200 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
5201 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
5202 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
5203 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
5204
5205 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
5206 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
5207
5208 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
5209 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
5210 [Bodo Moeller]
5211
5212 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
5213 s_client and s_server.
5214 [Ben Laurie]
5215
5216 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
5217 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
5218
5219 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
5220 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
5221
5222 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
5223 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
5224 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
5225 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
5226 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
5227 [Bodo Moeller]
5228
5229 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
5230
5231 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
5232 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
5233 [PR #1679]
5234
5235 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
5236 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
5237 [Nagendra Modadugu]
5238
5239 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
5240 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
5241 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
5242 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
5243
5244 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
5245 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
5246
5247 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
5248
5249 *) Various precautionary measures:
5250
5251 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
5252
5253 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
5254 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
5255 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
5256
5257 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
5258 outside the expected range.
5259
5260 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
5261 builds.
5262
5263 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
5264
5265 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
5266 the load fails. Useful for distros.
5267 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
5268
5269 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
5270 [Steve Henson]
5271
5272 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
5273 [Huang Ying]
5274
5275 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
5276
5277 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5278 [Steve Henson]
5279
5280 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
5281 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
5282 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
5283
5284 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5285 [Steve Henson]
5286
5287 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
5288 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
5289 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
5290 files.
5291 [Steve Henson]
5292
5293 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
5294
5295 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
5296 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
5297 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
5298 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
5299
5300 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
5301 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
5302 [Joe Orton]
5303
5304 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
5305
5306 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
5307 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
5308 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
5309
5310 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
5311
5312 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
5313 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
5314 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
5315 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
5316 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5317
5318 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
5319 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
5320 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
5321 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
5322 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
5323 invalid read after the end of 'db').
5324 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5325
5326 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
5327
5328 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
5329 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
5330 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
5331 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
5332 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
5333
5334 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
5335 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
5336
5337 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
5338 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
5339 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
5340 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
5341 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5342
5343 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5344
5345 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5346 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5347 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5348 sets may exist with different names.
5349 [Steve Henson]
5350
5351 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5352 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5353 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5354 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5355 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5356 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5357 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5358 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5359 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5360 implementation.
5361 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5362
5363 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5364 implementation in the following ways:
5365
5366 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5367 hard coded.
5368
5369 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5370 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5371 ignored for embedded content.
5372
5373 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5374 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5375 [Steve Henson]
5376
5377 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5378 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5379 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5380 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5381
5382 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5383 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5384 [Steve Henson]
5385
5386 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5387 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5388 [Steve Henson]
5389
5390 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5391 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5392 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5393 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5394 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5395 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5396 data.
5397 [Steve Henson]
5398
5399 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5400 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5401 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5402
5403 *) Netware support:
5404
5405 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5406 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5407 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5408 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5409 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5410 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5411 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5412 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5413 platform
5414 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5415 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5416 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5417 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5418 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5419 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5420 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5421
5422 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5423 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5424 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5425 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5426 to s_client and s_server.
5427 [Steve Henson]
5428
5429 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5430
5431 *) Fix various bugs:
5432 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5433 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5434 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5435 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5436 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5437
5438 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5439
5440 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5441 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5442 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5443 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5444 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5445 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5446 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5447 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5448 [Andy Polyakov]
5449
5450 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5451 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5452 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5453 Steve Henson]
5454
5455 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5456 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5457 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5458 supported.
5459
5460 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5461 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5462 SSL_SESSION.
5463
5464 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5465 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5466 with no application modification.
5467
5468 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5469 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5470
5471 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5472 or server extensions to be examined.
5473
5474 This work was sponsored by Google.
5475 [Steve Henson]
5476
5477 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5478 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5479 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5480 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5481 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5482 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5483 server_name extension.
5484
5485 New functions (subject to change):
5486
5487 SSL_get_servername()
5488 SSL_get_servername_type()
5489 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5490
5491 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5492
5493 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5494 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5495 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5496 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5497 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5498
5499 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5500
5501 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5502 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5503 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5504 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5505 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5506 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5507 option.
5508
5509 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5510
5511 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5512 [Steve Henson]
5513
5514 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5515 [Andy Polyakov]
5516
5517 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5518 (which previously caused an internal error).
5519 [Bodo Moeller]
5520
5521 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5522 [Ben Laurie]
5523
5524 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5525 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5526
5527 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5528 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5529 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5530
5531 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5532 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5533 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5534 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5535
5536 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5537 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5538 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5539 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5540
5541 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5542 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5543 information. For detailed background information, see
5544 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5545 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5546 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5547 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5548 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5549 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5550 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5551 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5552 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5553 remove a conditional branch.
5554
5555 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5556 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5557 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5558 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5559 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5560 remains as a deprecated alias.
5561
5562 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5563 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5564 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5565 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5566
5567 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5568 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5569 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5570 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5571 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5572 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5573 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5574 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5575
5576 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5577
5578 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5579 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5580 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5581 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5582 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5583 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5584 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5585 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5586 in a different context.
5587 [Bodo Moeller]
5588
5589 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5590 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5591 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5592 [Bodo Moeller]
5593
5594 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5595 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5596 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5597
5598 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5599
5600 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5601 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5602 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5603 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5604 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5605 [Victor Duchovni]
5606
5607 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5608 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5609 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5610 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5611 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5612 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5613 [Bodo Moeller]
5614
5615 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5616 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5617 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5618 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5619 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5620 [Bodo Moeller]
5621
5622 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5623 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5624
5625 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5626 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5627 Improve header file function name parsing.
5628 [Steve Henson]
5629
5630 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5631 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
5632 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
5633
5634 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
5635
5636 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5637 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5638 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5639
5640 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5641 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5642
5643 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5644 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5645
5646 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5647 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5648 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5649
5650 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
5651 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
5652 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
5653 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
5654 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
5655 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
5656 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
5657 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
5658 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
5659
5660 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
5661 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
5662 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
5663 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
5664 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
5665
5666 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
5667 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
5668 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
5669 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
5670 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
5671 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
5672 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
5673 multiple values to extend the available space.
5674
5675 [Bodo Moeller]
5676
5677 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
5678
5679 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5680 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5681
5682 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
5683 [Ben Laurie]
5684
5685 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5686 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5687 undesirable limitations.
5688 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5689
5690 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
5691 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
5692 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
5693 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
5694 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
5695 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
5696 to avoid potential handshake problems.
5697 [Bodo Moeller]
5698
5699 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5700
5701 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5702 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5703 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5704
5705 The latter two were purportedly from
5706 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5707 appear there.
5708
5709 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
5710 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5711 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5712 [Bodo Moeller]
5713
5714 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5715 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5716 [Bodo Moeller]
5717
5718 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
5719 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
5720 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
5721 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
5722
5723 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5724 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5725 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
5726 [NTT]
5727
5728 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
5729 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
5730 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
5731 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
5732 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
5733 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
5734 [Steve Henson]
5735
5736 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
5737
5738 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
5739 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
5740 [Steve Henson]
5741
5742 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
5743 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
5744
5745 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5746 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
5747 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
5748 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
5749 [Douglas Stebila]
5750
5751 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
5752 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
5753 [Steve Henson]
5754
5755 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
5756 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
5757 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
5758 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
5759 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
5760 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
5761 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
5762 can't be loaded.
5763 [Steve Henson]
5764
5765 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
5766 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
5767 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
5768 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
5769 [Steve Henson]
5770
5771 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
5772 under VC++ build system.
5773 [Steve Henson]
5774
5775 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
5776 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
5777 [Richard Levitte]
5778
5779 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
5780
5781 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5782 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5783 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5784 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5785 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5786
5787 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5788 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5789 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5790
5791 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
5792 [Steve Henson]
5793
5794 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
5795 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5796 [Nils Larsch]
5797
5798 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
5799 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
5800
5801 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
5802 [Nick Mathewson]
5803
5804 *) Extended Windows CE support.
5805 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
5806
5807 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
5808 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5809 [Steve Henson]
5810
5811 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
5812 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
5813 smime utility.
5814 [Steve Henson]
5815
5816 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
5817
5818 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5819 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5820
5821 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
5822 [Richard Levitte]
5823
5824 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
5825 key into the same file any more.
5826 [Richard Levitte]
5827
5828 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
5829 [Andy Polyakov]
5830
5831 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
5832 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
5833
5834 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
5835 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
5836 [Richard Levitte]
5837
5838 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
5839 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
5840 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
5841 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
5842 this only applies when building 'shared'.
5843 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
5844
5845 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
5846 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
5847 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
5848 [Steve Henson]
5849
5850 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
5851 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
5852 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
5853 - add new function for parameter creation
5854 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
5855 BN_BLINDING parameters
5856 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
5857 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
5858 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
5859 threads.
5860 [Nils Larsch]
5861
5862 *) Add support for DTLS.
5863 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
5864
5865 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
5866 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
5867 [Walter Goulet]
5868
5869 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
5870 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
5871 [Nils Larsch]
5872
5873 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
5874 the apps/openssl applications.
5875 [Nils Larsch]
5876
5877 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
5878 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
5879 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
5880 [Ben Laurie]
5881
5882 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
5883 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
5884
5885 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
5886 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
5887
5888 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
5889 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
5890 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
5891 avoid this algorithm.)
5892
5893 [Bodo Moeller]
5894
5895 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
5896 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
5897 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
5898 [Richard Levitte]
5899
5900 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
5901 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
5902 [Andy Polyakov]
5903
5904 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
5905 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
5906 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
5907 pod file:
5908
5909 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
5910
5911 The blank line is mandatory.
5912
5913 [Steve Henson]
5914
5915 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
5916 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
5917 sources.
5918 [Steve Henson]
5919
5920 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
5921 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
5922
5923 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
5924 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
5925 to support policy checking and print out.
5926 [Steve Henson]
5927
5928 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
5929 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
5930 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
5931 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
5932
5933 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
5934 [Geoff Thorpe]
5935
5936 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
5937 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
5938
5939 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
5940 implementation contributed by IBM.
5941 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
5942
5943 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
5944 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
5945 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
5946 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
5947
5948 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
5949 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
5950
5951 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
5952 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
5953 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
5954 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
5955 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
5956 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
5957 [Steve Henson]
5958
5959 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
5960 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
5961 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
5962 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
5963 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
5964 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
5965 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
5966 [Geoff Thorpe]
5967
5968 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
5969 [Steve Henson]
5970
5971 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
5972 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
5973 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
5974 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
5975 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
5976 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
5977 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
5978 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
5979 [Steve Henson]
5980
5981 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
5982 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
5983 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
5984 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
5985 [Steve Henson]
5986
5987 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
5988 syntax:
5989
5990 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
5991 [Steve Henson]
5992
5993 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
5994 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
5995 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
5996 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
5997 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
5998 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
5999 BN_CTX's "bundling".
6000 [Geoff Thorpe]
6001
6002 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
6003 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
6004 [Geoff Thorpe]
6005
6006 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
6007 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
6008 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
6009 [Steve Henson]
6010
6011 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
6012 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
6013 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
6014 below).
6015 [Geoff Thorpe]
6016
6017 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
6018 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
6019 [Richard Levitte]
6020
6021 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
6022 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
6023 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
6024 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
6025 [Geoff Thorpe]
6026
6027 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
6028 initialised value as BN_new().
6029 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
6030
6031 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
6032 [Steve Henson]
6033
6034 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
6035 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
6036 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
6037 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
6038 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
6039 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
6040 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
6041 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
6042 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
6043 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
6044 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
6045 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
6046 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
6047 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
6048 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
6049
6050 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
6051 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
6052 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
6053 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
6054 [Geoff Thorpe]
6055
6056 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
6057 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
6058 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
6059 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
6060 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
6061 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
6062 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
6063 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
6064 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
6065 [Geoff Thorpe]
6066
6067 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
6068 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
6069 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
6070 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
6071 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
6072 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
6073 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
6074 [Geoff Thorpe]
6075
6076 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
6077 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
6078 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
6079 these have been updated also.
6080 [Geoff Thorpe]
6081
6082 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
6083 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
6084 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
6085 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
6086 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
6087 functions.
6088 [Steve Henson]
6089
6090 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
6091 structure of type "other".
6092 [Steve Henson]
6093
6094 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
6095 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
6096 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
6097 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
6098 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
6099 situation in the script.
6100 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6101
6102 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
6103 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
6104 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
6105 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
6106 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
6107 used as premaster secret.
6108 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6109
6110 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
6111 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
6112 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6113
6114 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
6115 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
6116
6117 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
6118 control of the error stack.
6119 [Richard Levitte]
6120
6121 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
6122 [Richard Levitte]
6123
6124 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
6125 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
6126 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
6127 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
6128 [Richard Levitte]
6129
6130 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
6131 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
6132 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
6133 [Richard Levitte]
6134
6135 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
6136 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
6137 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
6138 a memory area.
6139 [Richard Levitte]
6140
6141 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
6142 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
6143 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
6144 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
6145 [Richard Levitte]
6146
6147 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
6148 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
6149 the following flags are defined:
6150
6151 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
6152 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6153 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
6154 number.
6155
6156 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
6157 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6158 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
6159 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
6160 returns zero.
6161 [Richard Levitte]
6162
6163 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
6164 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
6165 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
6166 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
6167 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
6168 [Richard Levitte]
6169
6170 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
6171 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
6172 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
6173 [Richard Levitte]
6174
6175 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6176 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6177 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6178 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6179 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6180 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6181 [Richard Levitte]
6182
6183 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
6184 req and dirName.
6185 [Steve Henson]
6186
6187 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
6188 [Steve Henson]
6189
6190 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
6191 [Steve Henson]
6192
6193 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
6194 [Steve Henson]
6195
6196 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
6197 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
6198 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
6199 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
6200 default implementation more easily.
6201 [Geoff Thorpe]
6202
6203 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
6204 in config files.
6205 [Steve Henson]
6206
6207 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
6208 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
6209 [Richard Levitte]
6210
6211 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
6212 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
6213 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
6214 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
6215
6216 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
6217 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
6218 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
6219 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
6220 [Steve Henson]
6221
6222 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
6223 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
6224 to do it.
6225 [Richard Levitte]
6226
6227 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
6228 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
6229 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
6230 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
6231 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
6232 scalar * generator).
6233 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
6234
6235 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
6236 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
6237 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
6238 correctly.
6239 [Steve Henson]
6240
6241 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
6242 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
6243 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
6244 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
6245 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
6246 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
6247 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
6248 linker additions, eg;
6249 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
6250 [Geoff Thorpe]
6251
6252 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
6253 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
6254 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
6255 [Geoff Thorpe]
6256
6257 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6258 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6259 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
6260 via PR#459)
6261 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6262
6263 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
6264 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
6265 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
6266 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
6267 [Geoff Thorpe]
6268
6269 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
6270 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
6271 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
6272 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
6273 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
6274 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
6275 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
6276 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
6277 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
6278 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
6279
6280 Example for using the new callback interface:
6281
6282 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
6283 void *my_arg = ...;
6284 BN_GENCB my_cb;
6285
6286 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
6287
6288 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
6289 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
6290 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
6291 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
6292 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
6293 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
6294 */
6295
6296 [Geoff Thorpe]
6297
6298 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
6299 available to TLS with the number defined in
6300 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
6301 [Richard Levitte]
6302
6303 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
6304 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
6305
6306 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
6307 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6308 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6309 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
6310
6311 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
6312 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
6313
6314 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
6315 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
6316 well.
6317 [Richard Levitte]
6318
6319 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
6320 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
6321 [Richard Levitte]
6322
6323 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
6324 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
6325 and a macro that behave like
6326 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
6327
6328 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
6329 [Nils Larsch]
6330
6331 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
6332 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
6333 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
6334 if applicable.
6335 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6336
6337 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
6338 [Bodo Moeller]
6339
6340 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
6341 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6342 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6343 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6344 directory engines/.
6345 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6346 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6347 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6348 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6349 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6350 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6351 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6352 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6353
6354 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6355 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6356 [Richard Levitte]
6357
6358 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6359 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6360
6361 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6362 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6363 files while avoiding the low level API.
6364
6365 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6366 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6367 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6368 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6369
6370 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6371 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6372 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6373 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6374 instead of the low level API.
6375 [Steve Henson]
6376
6377 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6378 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6379 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6380 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6381 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6382 PKCS#7 code.
6383
6384 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6385 down to the template encoder.
6386 [Steve Henson]
6387
6388 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6389 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6390 [Bodo Moeller]
6391
6392 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6393 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6394 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6395 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6396
6397 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6398 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6399
6400 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6401 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6402
6403 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6404 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6405 [Bodo Moeller]
6406
6407 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6408 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6409 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6410 [Bodo Moeller]
6411
6412 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6413 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6414
6415 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6416 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6417
6418 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6419 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6420 New EC_METHOD:
6421
6422 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6423
6424 New API functions:
6425
6426 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6427 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6428 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6429 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6430 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6431 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6432
6433 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6434 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6435 enable it).
6436
6437 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6438 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6439 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6440 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6441 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6442 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6443 various internal method names.)
6444
6445 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6446 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6447
6448 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6449 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6450
6451 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6452 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6453
6454 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6455 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6456 methods are undefined.
6457
6458 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6459 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6460
6461 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6462 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6463 length of the modulus.
6464
6465 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6466 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6467
6468 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6469 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6470
6471 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6472 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6473
6474 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6475 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6476 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6477
6478 BN_GF2m_add
6479 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
6480 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
6481 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
6482 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
6483 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
6484 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
6485 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
6486 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
6487 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
6488
6489 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6490 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6491
6492 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6493 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6494 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6495 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6496 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6497 where
6498 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6499 This applies to the following functions:
6500
6501 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6502 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6503 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6504 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6505 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6506 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6507 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6508 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6509 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6510 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6511
6512 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6513
6514 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6515 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6516
6517 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6518
6519 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6520 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6521 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6522 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6523 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6524
6525 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6526 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6527
6528 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6529 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6530 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6531
6532 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6533 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6534
6535 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6536 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6537 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6538 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6539 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6540
6541 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6542 functions
6543 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6544 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6545 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6546 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6547 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6548 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6549 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6550 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6551 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6552 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6553 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6554 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6555
6556 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6557 functions
6558 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6559 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6560 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6561 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6562 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6563
6564 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6565 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6566 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6567 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6568
6569 *) Add functions
6570 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6571 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6572 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6573 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6574 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6575 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6576 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6577
6578 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6579 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6580 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6581 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6582 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6583 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6584 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6585 adding different types of curves.
6586 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6587
6588 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6589 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6590 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6591 [Bodo Moeller]
6592
6593 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6594 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6595
6596 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6597 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6598 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6599 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6600
6601 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6602
6603 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6604 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6605
6606 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6607 library. Most notably,
6608 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6609 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6610 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6611 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6612 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6613 extracted before the specific public key;
6614 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6615 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6616
6617 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6618 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6619 function
6620 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6621 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6622 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6623 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6624 accessed via
6625 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6626 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6627 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6628
6629 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6630 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6631 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6632 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6633 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6634 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6635 differing sizes.
6636 [Richard Levitte]
6637
6638 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
6639
6640 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
6641 sensitive data.
6642 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
6643
6644 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
6645 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
6646 authentication-only ciphersuites.
6647 [Bodo Moeller]
6648
6649 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
6650 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
6651 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
6652 [Victor Duchovni]
6653
6654 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
6655 [Steve Henson]
6656
6657 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
6658 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
6659 [Steve Henson]
6660
6661 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
6662 run algorithm test programs.
6663 [Steve Henson]
6664
6665 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
6666 [Steve Henson]
6667
6668 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
6669 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
6670 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
6671 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
6672 message has informed the client about his choice.)
6673 [Bodo Moeller]
6674
6675 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
6676 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
6677 [Steve Henson]
6678
6679 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
6680
6681 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6682 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6683 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6684
6685 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
6686 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
6687
6688 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
6689 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6690
6691 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
6692 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
6693 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6694
6695 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
6696 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
6697 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
6698 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
6699 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
6700 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
6701 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
6702 [Bodo Moeller]
6703
6704 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
6705
6706 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
6707 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
6708
6709 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6710 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6711 undesirable limitations.
6712 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6713
6714 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6715
6716 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6717 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6718 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6719
6720 The latter two were purportedly from
6721 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6722 appear there.
6723
6724 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6725 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6726 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6727 [Bodo Moeller]
6728
6729 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6730 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6731 [Bodo Moeller]
6732
6733 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
6734
6735 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
6736 module in FIPS mode.
6737 [Steve Henson]
6738
6739 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
6740 [Steve Henson]
6741
6742 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
6743 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
6744 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
6745 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
6746 [Steve Henson]
6747
6748 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
6749
6750 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
6751 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
6752 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
6753 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
6754 the difference induced by this change.
6755 [Andy Polyakov]
6756
6757 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
6758
6759 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6760 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6761 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6762 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6763 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6764
6765 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6766 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6767 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6768
6769 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
6770 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
6771 [Steve Henson]
6772
6773 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
6774 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
6775 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
6776 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
6777 biased k.)
6778 [Bodo Moeller]
6779
6780 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
6781 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
6782 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
6783 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
6784 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
6785
6786 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
6787 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
6788 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
6789 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
6790 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
6791 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
6792
6793 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
6794
6795 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
6796 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
6797 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
6798 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
6799 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
6800 [Bodo Moeller]
6801
6802 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
6803 clients need.
6804 [Steve Henson]
6805
6806 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
6807 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
6808 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
6809 [Steve Henson]
6810
6811 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
6812 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
6813 structures constant.
6814 [Steve Henson]
6815
6816 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
6817
6818 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6819 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6820
6821 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
6822 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
6823 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
6824 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
6825 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
6826 some needed definitions.
6827 [Steve Henson]
6828
6829 *) Undo Cygwin change.
6830 [Ulf Möller]
6831
6832 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
6833 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
6834 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
6835 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
6836 [Richard Levitte]
6837
6838 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
6839
6840 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
6841 server and client random values. Previously
6842 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
6843 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
6844
6845 This change has negligible security impact because:
6846
6847 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
6848 data.
6849
6850 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
6851 handshake.
6852
6853 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
6854 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
6855 values.
6856
6857 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
6858 to our attention.
6859
6860 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
6861
6862 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
6863 [Ulf Möller]
6864
6865 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
6866 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
6867 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
6868
6869 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
6870 [Steve Henson]
6871
6872 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
6873 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
6874 [Andy Polyakov]
6875
6876 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
6877 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
6878 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
6879
6880 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
6881 [Steve Henson]
6882
6883 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
6884 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
6885 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
6886 certificates.
6887 [Steve Henson]
6888
6889 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
6890 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
6891 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
6892 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
6893
6894 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
6895 has chosen to ignore this fault)
6896 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
6897 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
6898 been given)
6899 [Richard Levitte]
6900
6901 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
6902
6903 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
6904 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
6905 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
6906 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
6907 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
6908 [Steve Henson]
6909
6910 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
6911 [Steve Henson]
6912
6913 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
6914 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
6915
6916 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
6917 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
6918 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
6919 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
6920 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
6921 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
6922 rather than being initialized to 1.
6923 [Steve Henson]
6924
6925 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
6926
6927 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6928 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6929 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6930
6931 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
6932 (CVE-2004-0112)
6933 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6934
6935 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6936 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6937 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6938 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6939 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6940 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6941 [Richard Levitte]
6942
6943 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
6944 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
6945 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
6946 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
6947 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
6948 for these cases.
6949 [Steve Henson]
6950
6951 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
6952 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
6953 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
6954 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
6955 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
6956 [Steve Henson]
6957
6958 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
6959 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
6960 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
6961 < 0.9.7.
6962 [Steve Henson]
6963
6964 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
6965 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6966
6967 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
6968 [Steve Henson]
6969
6970 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
6971
6972 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6973
6974 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6975 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6976
6977 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
6978
6979 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6980 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6981
6982 [Steve Henson]
6983
6984 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
6985 exiting on the first error in a request.
6986 [Steve Henson]
6987
6988 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6989 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6990 specifications.
6991 [Steve Henson]
6992
6993 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6994 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6995 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6996 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6997
6998 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6999 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
7000 [Richard Levitte]
7001
7002 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
7003 blocks during encryption.
7004 [Richard Levitte]
7005
7006 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
7007 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
7008 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
7009 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
7010 certain size.
7011 [Steve Henson]
7012
7013 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
7014 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
7015 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
7016 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
7017 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
7018 parser.
7019 [Steve Henson]
7020
7021 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
7022
7023 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
7024 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
7025 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
7026 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
7027 [Bodo Moeller]
7028
7029 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
7030 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
7031 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
7032 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
7033 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7034
7035 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
7036 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
7037 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
7038 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
7039 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
7040 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
7041 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
7042 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
7043 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
7044 [Bodo Moeller]
7045
7046 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
7047 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
7048 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
7049 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
7050 [Geoff Thorpe]
7051
7052 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
7053 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
7054 [Ulf Moeller]
7055
7056 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
7057
7058 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
7059 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
7060 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
7061 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
7062 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
7063
7064 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
7065 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
7066 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
7067
7068 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
7069 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
7070 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
7071 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
7072 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
7073
7074 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
7075 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
7076 used by default when no-err is given.
7077 [Richard Levitte]
7078
7079 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
7080 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
7081
7082 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
7083 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
7084 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
7085 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
7086 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
7087
7088 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
7089 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
7090 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
7091 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
7092
7093 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
7094
7095 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
7096
7097 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
7098
7099 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
7100 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
7101 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
7102 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
7103 root is omitted).
7104 [Steve Henson]
7105
7106 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
7107 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7108
7109 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
7110 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
7111 [Steve Henson]
7112
7113 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
7114 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
7115 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
7116 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
7117 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7118
7119 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
7120 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
7121 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
7122 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
7123 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
7124 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7125 followup to PR #377.
7126 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7127
7128 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
7129 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
7130 [Andy Polyakov]
7131
7132 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
7133 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
7134 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
7135 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
7136
7137 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
7138
7139 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
7140 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
7141
7142 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
7143 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
7144 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
7145 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
7146 client and server.
7147 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7148 PR #377.
7149 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7150
7151 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
7152 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
7153 removed entirely.
7154 [Richard Levitte]
7155
7156 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
7157 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
7158 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
7159 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
7160 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
7161 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
7162 of libcrypto.
7163 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
7164 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
7165 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
7166 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
7167 have to be made anyway).
7168 [Richard Levitte]
7169
7170 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
7171 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
7172 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
7173 [Steve Henson]
7174
7175 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
7176 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
7177 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
7178 [Richard Levitte]
7179
7180 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
7181 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
7182 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7183
7184 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
7185 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
7186 edit numbers of the version.
7187 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7188
7189 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
7190 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
7191 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
7192
7193 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
7194 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7195
7196 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7197 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7198 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7199
7200 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
7201 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7202
7203 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
7204 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7205
7206 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
7207 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7208
7209 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
7210 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7211
7212 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
7213 overflows.
7214 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7215
7216 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
7217 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
7218 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7219
7220 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
7221 representations in a platform independent manner.
7222 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7223
7224 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7225 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7226 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7227
7228 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
7229 indents.
7230 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7231
7232 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
7233 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7234
7235 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
7236 full. Fixed.
7237 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7238
7239 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
7240 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
7241 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7242
7243 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
7244 unconditionally).
7245 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7246
7247 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
7248 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7249
7250 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
7251 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7252
7253 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
7254 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7255
7256 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
7257 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7258
7259 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
7260 CBCParameter.
7261 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7262
7263 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
7264 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7265
7266 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
7267 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7268
7269 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
7270 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
7271 exploitable.
7272 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7273
7274 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
7275 the 0.9.6 release series:
7276
7277 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7278 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
7279 (CVE-2002-0657)
7280 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7281
7282 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
7283 [Richard Levitte]
7284
7285 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
7286 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
7287
7288 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
7289 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
7290
7291 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
7292 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
7293 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
7294 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
7295
7296 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
7297 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
7298 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
7299
7300 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
7301 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
7302 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
7303 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7304
7305 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
7306 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
7307 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
7308 some local tweaks:
7309
7310 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
7311 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
7312 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
7313 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7314 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7315 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
7316 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
7317 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
7318 done
7319
7320 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
7321 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
7322 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
7323 [Richard Levitte]
7324
7325 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
7326 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
7327 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
7328 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
7329 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
7330
7331 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
7332 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
7333
7334 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
7335 error in AES-CFB decryption.
7336 [Richard Levitte]
7337
7338 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
7339 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
7340 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
7341 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7342 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7343 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7344 [Steve Henson]
7345
7346 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7347 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7348 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7349 [Steve Henson]
7350
7351 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7352 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7353 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7354
7355 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7356 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7357 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7358 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7359 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7360 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7361 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7362 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7363
7364 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7365 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7366 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7367 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7368 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7369 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7370 [Steve Henson]
7371
7372 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7373 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7374 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7375 declaration has been changed from
7376 int (*cb)()
7377 into
7378 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7379 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7380 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7381 has been changed into
7382 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7383
7384 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7385 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
7386 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
7387
7388 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7389 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7390
7391 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7392 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7393 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7394 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7395 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7396 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7397 always load it have also been added.
7398 [Steve Henson]
7399
7400 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7401 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7402 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7403
7404 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7405
7406 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7407 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7408 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7409
7410 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7411 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7412 command line option can be used to specify an
7413 alternative file.
7414 [Steve Henson]
7415
7416 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7417 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7418 [Steve Henson]
7419
7420 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7421 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7422 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7423 [Steve Henson]
7424
7425 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7426 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7427 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7428 to work with the new engine framework.
7429 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7430
7431 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7432 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7433 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7434 to work with the new engine framework.
7435 [Richard Levitte]
7436
7437 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7438 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7439 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7440
7441 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7442 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7443
7444 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7445 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7446 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7447 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7448 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7449 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7450
7451 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7452 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7453
7454 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7455 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7456
7457 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7458 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7459 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7460 [Ben Laurie]
7461
7462 *) Add new functions
7463 ERR_peek_last_error
7464 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7465 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7466 These are similar to
7467 ERR_peek_error
7468 ERR_peek_error_line
7469 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7470 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7471 still in the error queue.
7472 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7473
7474 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7475 like:
7476 default_algorithms = ALL
7477 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7478 [Steve Henson]
7479
7480 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7481 [Steve Henson]
7482
7483 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7484 [Steve Henson]
7485
7486 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7487 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7488 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7489 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7490
7491 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7492 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7493
7494 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7495 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7496
7497 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7498 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7499 [Bodo Moeller]
7500
7501 *) New functions/macros
7502
7503 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7504 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7505 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7506 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7507
7508 to request calling a callback function
7509
7510 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7511 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7512
7513 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7514 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7515 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7516 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7517 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7518 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7519 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7520 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7521 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7522 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7523
7524 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7525 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7526 [Bodo Moeller]
7527
7528 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7529 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7530 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7531 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7532 the configuration scripts.
7533
7534 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7535 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7536 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7537
7538 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7539 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7540
7541 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7542 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7543 when reusing an existing buffer.
7544 [Bodo Moeller]
7545
7546 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7547 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7548 [Steve Henson]
7549
7550 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7551 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7552 [Ben Laurie]
7553
7554 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7555 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7556 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7557 has the same effect.
7558 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7559
7560 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7561 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7562 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7563 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7564 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7565 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7566 exception.
7567
7568 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7569 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7570 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7571 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7572
7573 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7574 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7575 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7576 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7577
7578 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7579 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7580 won't work.
7581
7582 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7583 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7584 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7585 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7586 default), and then completely removed.
7587 [Richard Levitte]
7588
7589 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7590 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7591 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7592 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7593 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7594 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7595 particular extension is supported.
7596 [Steve Henson]
7597
7598 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7599 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7600 [Steve Henson]
7601
7602 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7603 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7604 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7605 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7606 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7607 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7608 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7609 requires the destination to be valid.
7610
7611 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7612 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7613 [Steve Henson]
7614
7615 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7616 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7617 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7618 [Bodo Moeller]
7619
7620 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7621 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7622
7623 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7624 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7625 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7626 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7627 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7628 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7629 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7630 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7631 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
7632 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
7633 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
7634 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
7635 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
7636 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
7637 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
7638 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
7639 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
7640 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
7641 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
7642 the new code.
7643 [Geoff Thorpe]
7644
7645 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
7646 [Steve Henson]
7647
7648 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
7649 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
7650 become part of libeay.num as well.
7651 [Richard Levitte]
7652
7653 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
7654 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
7655 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
7656 false once a handshake has been completed.
7657 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
7658 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
7659 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
7660 client has followed the request.)
7661 [Bodo Moeller]
7662
7663 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
7664 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
7665 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
7666 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
7667
7668 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
7669 more bits available for options that should not be part of
7670 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
7671 [Bodo Moeller]
7672
7673 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
7674 [Steve Henson]
7675
7676 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
7677 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
7678 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
7679 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7680
7681 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
7682 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7683 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7684
7685 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
7686 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
7687 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
7688 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
7689 [Geoff Thorpe]
7690
7691 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
7692 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
7693 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
7694 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
7695 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
7696 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
7697 [Geoff Thorpe]
7698
7699 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
7700 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
7701 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
7702 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
7703 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
7704 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
7705 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
7706 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
7707 [Geoff Thorpe]
7708
7709 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
7710 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
7711 [Geoff Thorpe]
7712
7713 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
7714 [Ben Laurie]
7715
7716 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
7717 md_data void pointer.
7718 [Ben Laurie]
7719
7720 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
7721 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
7722 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
7723 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
7724 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
7725 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
7726 [Ben Laurie]
7727
7728 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
7729 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
7730 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
7731 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
7732 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
7733 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
7734 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
7735 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
7736 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
7737 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
7738 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
7739 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
7740 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
7741 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
7742 rather than letting it slide.
7743
7744 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
7745 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
7746 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
7747 [Geoff Thorpe]
7748
7749 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
7750 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
7751 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
7752 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
7753 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
7754 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
7755 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
7756 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
7757 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
7758 [Geoff Thorpe]
7759
7760 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
7761 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
7762 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
7763 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
7764 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
7765
7766 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
7767 [Geoff Thorpe]
7768
7769 *) Add EVP test program.
7770 [Ben Laurie]
7771
7772 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
7773 [Ben Laurie]
7774
7775 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
7776 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
7777 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
7778 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
7779 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
7780 [Steve Henson]
7781
7782 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
7783 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
7784 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
7785 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
7786 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
7787 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
7788 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
7789
7790 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
7791 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
7792 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
7793 Usage example:
7794
7795 EVP_MD_CTX md;
7796
7797 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
7798 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
7799 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
7800 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
7801 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
7802
7803 [Ben Laurie]
7804
7805 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
7806 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
7807 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
7808 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
7809 anyway): E.g.,
7810
7811 des_key_schedule ks;
7812
7813 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
7814 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
7815
7816 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
7817 [Ben Laurie]
7818
7819 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
7820 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
7821 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
7822 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
7823 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
7824 functions prevents this.
7825 [Steve Henson]
7826
7827 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
7828 [Ben Laurie]
7829
7830 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
7831 correct _ecb suffix.
7832 [Ben Laurie]
7833
7834 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
7835 revocation information is handled using the text based index
7836 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
7837 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
7838 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
7839 [Steve Henson]
7840
7841 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
7842 [Richard Levitte]
7843
7844 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
7845 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
7846 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
7847 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
7848
7849 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
7850 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
7851
7852 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
7853 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7854 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
7855 via Richard Levitte]
7856
7857 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
7858 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
7859 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
7860 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
7861 [Geoff Thorpe]
7862
7863 *) Speed up EVP routines.

7879 [Ben Laurie]
7880
7881 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
7882 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
7883
7884 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
7885 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
7886 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
7887 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
7888 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
7889 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
7890 [Steve Henson]
7891
7892 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
7893 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
7894 [Richard Levitte]
7895
7896 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
7897 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
7898 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
7899 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
7900
7901 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
7902 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
7903 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
7904 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
7905 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
7906 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
7907 callback.
7908 [Richard Levitte]
7909
7910 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
7911 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
7912 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
7913 and interrupts/cancellations.
7914 [Richard Levitte]
7915
7916 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
7917 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
7918 [Steve Henson]
7919
7920 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
7921 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
7922 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
7923
7924 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
7925 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
7926 kind of callback.
7927 [Richard Levitte]
7928
7929 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
7930 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
7931 than this minimum value is recommended.
7932 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7933
7934 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
7935 that are easily reachable.
7936 [Richard Levitte]
7937
7938 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
7939 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
7940
7941 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
7942
7943 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
7944 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
7945 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
7946 needed for static libraries under Win32.
7947 [Steve Henson]
7948
7949 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
7950 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
7951 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
7952 [Steve Henson]
7953
7954 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
7955 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
7956 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
7957 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
7958 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
7959 internally such as S/MIME.
7960
7961 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
7962 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
7963 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
7964
7965 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
7966 applications.
7967 [Steve Henson]
7968
7969 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
7970 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
7971 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
7972 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
7973
7974 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7975
7976 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
7977
7978 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
7979 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
7980 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
7981 handling.
7982 [Steve Henson]
7983
7984 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
7985 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
7986 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
7987 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
7988 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
7989 a window system and the like.
7990 [Richard Levitte]
7991
7992 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
7993 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
7994 [Geoff]
7995
7996 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
7997 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
7998 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
7999 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
8000 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
8001 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
8002 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
8003 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
8004 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
8005 ENGINE structure.
8006 [Geoff]
8007
8008 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
8009 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
8010 tag cache.
8011 [Steve Henson]
8012
8013 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
8014 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
8015 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
8016 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
8017 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
8018 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
8019 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
8020 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
8021 [Geoff]
8022
8023 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
8024 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
8025 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
8026 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
8027 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
8028 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
8029 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
8030 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
8031 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
8032 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
8033 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
8034 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
8035 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
8036 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
8037 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
8038 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
8039 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
8040 [Geoff]
8041
8042 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
8043 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
8044 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
8045 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
8046 internal engine_int.h header.
8047 [Geoff]
8048
8049 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
8050 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
8051 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
8052 modify their own ones).
8053 [Geoff]
8054
8055 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
8056 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
8057 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
8058 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
8059 later on via ctrl() commands.
8060 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
8061 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
8062 structural references.
8063 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
8064 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
8065 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
8066 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
8067 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
8068 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
8069 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
8070 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
8071 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
8072 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
8073 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
8074 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
8075 [Geoff]
8076
8077 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
8078 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
8079 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
8080 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
8081 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
8082 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
8083 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
8084 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
8085 [Bodo Moeller]
8086
8087 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
8088 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
8089 [Steve Henson]
8090
8091 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
8092 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
8093 [Steve Henson]
8094
8095 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
8096 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
8097 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
8098 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
8099 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
8100 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
8101 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
8102 [Steve Henson]
8103
8104 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
8105 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
8106 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
8107 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
8108 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
8109
8110 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
8111 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
8112 generator).
8113 [Bodo Moeller]
8114
8115 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
8116
8117 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
8118 operations and provides various method functions that can also
8119 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
8120
8121 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
8122 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
8123
8124 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
8125 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
8126 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
8127
8128 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
8129 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
8130
8131 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
8132 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
8133
8134 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
8135
8136 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
8137 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
8138 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
8139 [Bodo Moeller]
8140
8141 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
8142 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
8143 [Richard Levitte]
8144
8145 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
8146 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
8147 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
8148 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
8149 is 40 of more characters long.
8150 [Steve Henson]
8151
8152 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
8153 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
8154 pointers.
8155 [Steve Henson]
8156
8157 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
8158 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
8159 [Bodo Moeller]
8160
8161 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
8162 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
8163 might.
8164 [Steve Henson]
8165
8166 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
8167
8168 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
8169 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
8170
8171 ASN1 error codes
8172 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
8173 ...
8174 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
8175 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
8176 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
8177 ...
8178 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
8179 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
8180
8181 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
8182 [Bodo Moeller]
8183
8184 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
8185 suffices.
8186 [Bodo Moeller]
8187
8188 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
8189 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
8190 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
8191 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
8192 and
8193 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
8194
8195 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
8196 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
8197
8198 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
8199 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
8200 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
8201 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
8202 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
8203 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
8204
8205 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
8206 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
8207
8208 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
8209 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8210
8211 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
8212 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
8213
8214 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
8215 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
8216 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8217 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
8218
8219 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
8220 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
8221
8222 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
8223 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
8224
8225 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
8226 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
8227 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
8228 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
8229 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
8230 [Richard Levitte]
8231
8232 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
8233 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
8234 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
8235 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
8236 [Steve Henson]
8237
8238 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
8239 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
8240 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
8241 trust settings.
8242 [Steve Henson]
8243
8244 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
8245 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
8246 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
8247 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
8248 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
8249 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
8250 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
8251 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
8252 ocsp utility.
8253 [Steve Henson]
8254
8255 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
8256 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
8257 [Steve Henson]
8258
8259 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
8260 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
8261 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
8262 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
8263 [Steve Henson]
8264
8265 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
8266 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
8267 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
8268 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
8269 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
8270 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
8271 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
8272 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
8273 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
8274 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
8275 [Steve Henson]
8276
8277 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
8278 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
8279 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
8280 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
8281 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
8282 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
8283 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
8284 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8285
8286 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
8287 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
8288 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
8289 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
8290 [Richard Levitte]
8291
8292 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
8293 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
8294 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
8295 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
8296 opensslconf.h.
8297 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
8298 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
8299 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
8300 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
8301 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
8302 what is available.
8303 [Richard Levitte]
8304
8305 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
8306 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
8307 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
8308 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
8309 auto incremented.
8310 [Steve Henson]
8311
8312 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
8313 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
8314 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
8315 [Steve Henson]
8316
8317 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
8318 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
8319 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
8320 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
8321 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
8322 [Steve Henson]
8323
8324 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
8325 [Steve Henson]
8326
8327 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
8328 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
8329 option to ocsp utility.
8330 [Steve Henson]
8331
8332 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
8333 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
8334 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
8335 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
8336 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
8337 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
8338 the request is nonce-less.
8339 [Steve Henson]
8340
8341 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8342 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8343 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8344 [Bodo Moeller]
8345
8346 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8347 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8348 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8349 [Steve Henson]
8350
8351 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8352 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8353 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8354 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8355 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8356 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8357
8358 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8359 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8360 appear to exist.
8361 [Steve Henson]
8362
8363 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8364 additional certificates supplied.
8365 [Steve Henson]
8366
8367 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8368 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8369 signature against.
8370 [Richard Levitte]
8371
8372 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8373 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8374 AES OIDs.
8375
8376 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8377 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8378 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8379 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8380 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8381 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8382 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8383 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8384 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8385
8386 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8387 request to response.
8388 [Steve Henson]
8389
8390 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8391 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8392 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8393 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8394 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8395 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8396 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8397 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8398 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8399 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8400 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8401 [Steve Henson]
8402
8403 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8404 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8405 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8406 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8407 [Steve Henson]
8408
8409 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8410 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8411
8412 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8413 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8414 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8415 [Steve Henson]
8416
8417 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8418 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8419 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8420 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8421 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8422
8423 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8424 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8425 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8426 [Steve Henson]
8427
8428 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8429 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8430 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8431 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8432 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8433 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8434 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8435 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8436
8437 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8438 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8439 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8440 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8441 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8442 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8443 [Steve Henson]
8444
8445 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8446 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8447 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8448 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8449 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8450 printout format cleaned up.
8451 [Steve Henson]
8452
8453 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8454 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8455 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8456 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8457 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8458 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8459 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8460 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8461 [Steve Henson]
8462
8463 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8464 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8465 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8466 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8467 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8468 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8469 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8470 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8471 [Steve Henson]
8472
8473 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8474 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8475 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8476 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8477 section to use.
8478 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8479
8480 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8481 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8482 parsed, outputted or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8483 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8484 [Steve Henson]
8485
8486 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8487 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8488 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8489 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8490 in the index file.
8491 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8492
8493 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8494 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8495 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8496 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8497
8498 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8499 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8500
8501 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8502 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8503 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8504 [Steve Henson]
8505
8506 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8507 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8508 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8509 [Bodo Moeller]
8510
8511 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8512 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8513 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8514 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8515 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8516 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8517 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8518 functions are provided:
8519
8520 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8521 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8522 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8523 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8524
8525 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8526 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8527 extended allocation function is enabled.
8528 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8529 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8530 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8531
8532 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8533 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8534 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8535 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8536 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8537 [Geoff Thorpe]
8538
8539 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8540 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8541 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8542 be queried.
8543 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8544 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8545 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8546 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8547
8548 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8549 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8550 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8551 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8552 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8553 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8554 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8555 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8556 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8557 [Richard Levitte]
8558
8559 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8560 provide utility functions which an application needing
8561 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8562 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8563 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8564
8565 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8566 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8567 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8568 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8569 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8570 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8571 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8572 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8573 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8574
8575 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8576 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8577 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8578 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8579 [Steve Henson]
8580
8581 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8582 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8583 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8584 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8585 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8586 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8587 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8588 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8589 will be added elsewhere.
8590 [Steve Henson]
8591
8592 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8593 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8594 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8595 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8596 [Steve Henson]
8597
8598 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8599 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8600 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8601 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8602 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8603 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8604 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8605 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8606 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8607 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8608 to produce the required SET OF.
8609 [Steve Henson]
8610
8611 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8612 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8613 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8614 [Richard Levitte]
8615
8616 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8617 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8618 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8619 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8620 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8621 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8622 [Steve Henson]
8623
8624 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8625 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8626 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8627 [Steve Henson]
8628
8629 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8630 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8631 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
8632 [Richard Levitte]
8633
8634 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
8635 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
8636 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
8637 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
8638 code will still work when these eventually go away.
8639 [Steve Henson]
8640
8641 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
8642 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
8643 [Steve Henson]
8644
8645 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
8646 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
8647 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
8648 certificates and CRLs.
8649 [Steve Henson]
8650
8651 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
8652 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
8653 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
8654 [Steve Henson]
8655
8656 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
8657 entries for variables.
8658 [Steve Henson]
8659
8660 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
8661 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
8662 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
8663 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
8664 [Bodo Moeller]
8665
8666 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
8667 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
8668 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
8669 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
8670 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
8671 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
8672 [Bodo Moeller]
8673
8674 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
8675 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
8676
8677 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
8678 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
8679 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
8680 [Steve Henson]
8681
8682 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
8683 print routines.
8684 [Steve Henson]
8685
8686 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
8687 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
8688 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
8689 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
8690 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
8691 order did not reflect the encoded order.
8692 [Steve Henson]
8693
8694 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
8695 [Steve Henson]
8696
8697 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
8698 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
8699 for now but they will eventually go away.
8700 [Steve Henson]
8701
8702 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
8703 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
8704 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
8705 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
8706 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
8707 has also been converted to the new form.
8708 [Steve Henson]
8709
8710 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
8711 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
8712 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
8713 for negative moduli.
8714 [Bodo Moeller]
8715
8716 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
8717 of not touching the result's sign bit.
8718 [Bodo Moeller]
8719
8720 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
8721 set.
8722 [Bodo Moeller]
8723
8724 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
8725 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
8726 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
8727 type-specific callbacks.
8728 [Geoff Thorpe]
8729
8730 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
8731 RFC 2712.
8732 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
8733 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
8734
8735 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
8736 in sections depending on the subject.
8737 [Richard Levitte]
8738
8739 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
8740 Windows.
8741 [Richard Levitte]
8742
8743 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
8744 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
8745 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
8746 be handled deterministically).
8747 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8748
8749 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
8750 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
8751 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
8752 [Bodo Moeller]
8753
8754 *) New function BN_kronecker.
8755 [Bodo Moeller]
8756
8757 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
8758 positive unless both parameters are zero.
8759 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
8760 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
8761 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
8762 [Bodo Moeller]
8763
8764 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
8765 sign of the number in question.
8766
8767 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
8768
8769 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
8770 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
8771 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
8772 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
8773 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
8774 [Bodo Moeller]
8775
8776 *) New function BN_swap.
8777 [Bodo Moeller]
8778
8779 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
8780 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
8781 results on negative inputs.
8782 [Bodo Moeller]
8783
8784 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
8785 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
8786 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
8787 [Bodo Moeller]
8788
8789 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
8790 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
8791 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
8792 and add new functions:
8793
8794 BN_nnmod
8795 BN_mod_sqr
8796 BN_mod_add
8797 BN_mod_add_quick
8798 BN_mod_sub
8799 BN_mod_sub_quick
8800 BN_mod_lshift1
8801 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
8802 BN_mod_lshift
8803 BN_mod_lshift_quick
8804
8805 These functions always generate non-negative results.
8806
8807 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
8808 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
8809
8810 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
8811 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
8812 be reduced modulo m.
8813 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8814
8815#if 0
8816 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
8817 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
8818 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
8819
8820 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
8821 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
8822 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
8823 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
8824 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
8825 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
8826 differing sizes.
8827 [Richard Levitte]
8828#endif
8829
8830 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
8831 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
8832 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
8833 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
8834 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
8835
8836 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
8837 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
8838 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
8839 cause any problems.
8840 [Bodo Moeller]
8841
8842 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
8843 [Richard Levitte]
8844
8845 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
8846 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
8847 [Richard Levitte]
8848
8849 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
8850 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
8851 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
8852 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
8853 time)
8854 [Richard Levitte]
8855
8856 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
8857 [Richard Levitte]
8858
8859 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
8860 [Richard Levitte]
8861
8862 *) Add the following functions:
8863
8864 ENGINE_load_cswift()
8865 ENGINE_load_chil()
8866 ENGINE_load_atalla()
8867 ENGINE_load_nuron()
8868 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
8869
8870 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
8871 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
8872 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
8873 libraries unless it's really needed.
8874
8875 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
8876 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
8877 declarations (they differed!).
8878 [Richard Levitte]
8879
8880 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
8881 [Richard Levitte]
8882
8883 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
8884 [Richard Levitte]
8885
8886 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
8887 [Bodo Moeller]
8888
8889 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
8890 identity, and test if they are actually available.
8891 [Richard Levitte]
8892
8893 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
8894 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
8895 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8896
8897 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
8898 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
8899 [Richard Levitte]
8900
8901 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
8902 [Richard Levitte]
8903
8904 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
8905 [Richard Levitte]
8906
8907 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
8908 [Ben Laurie]
8909
8910 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
8911 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
8912 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
8913
8914 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
8915 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
8916 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
8917 different shared library filenames on each system.
8918 [Geoff Thorpe]
8919
8920 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
8921 [Richard Levitte]
8922
8923 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
8924 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
8925 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
8926 of two sections.
8927 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
8928
8929 *) NCONF changes.
8930 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
8931 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
8932 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
8933 binary backward compatibility.
8934 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
8935 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
8936 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
8937 LDAP server.
8938 [Richard Levitte]
8939
8940 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
8941 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
8942 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
8943 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
8944 this case.
8945 [Steve Henson]
8946
8947 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
8948 [Ben Laurie]
8949
8950 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
8951 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
8952 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
8953 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
8954 set.
8955 [Steve Henson]
8956
8957 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
8958 [Richard Levitte]
8959
8960 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
8961
8962 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
8963 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
8964 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
8965
8966 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
8967
8968 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
8969
8970 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
8971 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
8972 [Steve Henson]
8973
8974 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
8975
8976 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
8977
8978 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
8979 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
8980
8981 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
8982 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
8983
8984 [Steve Henson]
8985
8986 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
8987 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
8988 specifications.
8989 [Steve Henson]
8990
8991 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
8992 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
8993 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
8994 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
8995
8996 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
8997 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
8998 [Richard Levitte]
8999
9000 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
9001
9002 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
9003 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
9004 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
9005 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
9006 [Bodo Moeller]
9007
9008 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
9009 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
9010 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
9011 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
9012 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9013
9014 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
9015 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
9016 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
9017 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
9018 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
9019 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
9020 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
9021 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
9022 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
9023 [Bodo Moeller]
9024
9025 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
9026
9027 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
9028 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
9029 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
9030 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
9031 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
9032
9033 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
9034 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
9035 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
9036
9037 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
9038
9039 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
9040 memory from its contents. This is done with a counter that will
9041 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
9042 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
9043 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
9044 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
9045 [Geoff Thorpe]
9046
9047 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
9048 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
9049 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
9050 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
9051 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
9052 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9053
9054 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
9055 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
9056 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
9057
9058 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
9059 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
9060 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
9061 EVP_cleanup().
9062 [Richard Levitte]
9063
9064 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
9065 being properly terminated.
9066 [Richard Levitte]
9067
9068 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
9069 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
9070 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
9071 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
9072
9073 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
9074 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
9075 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
9076 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
9077 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
9078 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
9079 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
9080 change.
9081 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
9082
9083 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
9084 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
9085 [Bodo Moeller]
9086
9087 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
9088 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
9089 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
9090 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
9091 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
9092 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
9093 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
9094 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
9095
9096 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
9097 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
9098 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
9099 (see [openssl.org #212]).
9100 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
9101
9102 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
9103 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
9104 [Steve Henson]
9105
9106 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
9107
9108 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
9109 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
9110 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
9111
9112 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
9113
9114 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
9115 and get fix the header length calculation.
9116 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
9117 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
9118 Steve Henson]
9119
9120 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
9121 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
9122 assertions could call abort()).
9123 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
9124
9125 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
9126
9127 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9128 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9129 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9130 supplied buffer.
9131 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9132
9133 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
9134 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
9135 by the selection routines (PR #130).
9136 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9137
9138 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
9139 [Nils Larsch]
9140
9141 *) New option
9142 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
9143 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
9144 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
9145
9146 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
9147 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
9148 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
9149 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
9150 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
9151 applications.
9152 [Bodo Moeller]
9153
9154 *) Changes in security patch:
9155
9156 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
9157 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
9158 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
9159 F30602-01-2-0537.
9160
9161 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9162 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9163 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9164 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
9165 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9166
9167 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
9168 happen in practice.
9169 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9170
9171 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
9172 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
9173 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
9174
9175 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
9176 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
9177 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9178
9179 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
9180 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
9181 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9182
9183 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
9184
9185 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
9186 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
9187 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
9188
9189 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
9190 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
9191
9192 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
9193 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
9194 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
9195 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
9196 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
9197 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
9198 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9199
9200 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
9201 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
9202 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
9203 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
9204 [Bodo Moeller]
9205
9206 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
9207 [Bodo Moeller]
9208
9209 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
9210 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
9211 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
9212 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
9213 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
9214 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9215
9216 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
9217 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
9218 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
9219 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
9220 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
9221 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9222
9223 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
9224 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
9225 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
9226 BN_generate_prime().)
9227
9228 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
9229 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
9230 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
9231 better.
9232 [Bodo Moeller]
9233
9234 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
9235 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
9236 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9237
9238 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
9239 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
9240 when using non-blocking I/O.
9241 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
9242
9243 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
9244 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
9245
9246 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
9247 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
9248 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9249
9250 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
9251 configuration for the versions before that.
9252 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
9253
9254 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
9255 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
9256 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
9257 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
9258 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9259
9260 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
9261 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
9262 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
9263 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9264
9265 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
9266 value is 0.
9267 [Richard Levitte]
9268
9269 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
9270 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
9271 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
9272
9273 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
9274 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
9275
9276 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
9277 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
9278 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
9279 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
9280 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
9281 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
9282 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
9283 session cache.
9284
9285 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
9286 using a local variable.
9287 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
9288
9289 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
9290 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
9291 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9292
9293 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
9294 [Richard Levitte]
9295
9296 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
9297 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
9298
9299 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
9300 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
9301 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
9302
9303 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
9304
9305 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
9306 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
9307 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
9308 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
9309 [Bodo Moeller]
9310
9311 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
9312 present.
9313 [Steve Henson]
9314
9315 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
9316 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
9317 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
9318 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
9319 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
9320
9321 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
9322 returns early because it has nothing to do.
9323 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9324
9325 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9326 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
9327 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9328
9329 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9330 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
9331 (Use engine 'keyclient')
9332 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
9333
9334 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
9335 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
9336 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
9337 modules).
9338 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
9339
9340 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9341 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9342 from 0.9.7.
9343 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9344
9345 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9346 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9347 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9348 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9349
9350 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9351 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9352 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9353 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9354
9355 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9356 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9357
9358 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9359 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9360 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9361 [Bodo Moeller]
9362
9363 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9364 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9365 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9366 become invalid.
9367 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9368
9369 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9370 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9371 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9372 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9373 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9374 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9375 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9376 [Bodo Moeller]
9377
9378 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9379 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9380 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9381 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9382
9383 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9384 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9385 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9386 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9387 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9388 the client will at least see that alert.
9389 [Bodo Moeller]
9390
9391 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9392 correctly.
9393 [Bodo Moeller]
9394
9395 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9396 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9397 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9398
9399 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9400 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9401 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9402 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9403 HelloRequest.
9404
9405 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9406 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9407 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9408
9409 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9410 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9411 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9412 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9413 may leak via logfiles.)
9414
9415 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9416 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9417 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9418 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9419 the legal range.
9420 [Bodo Moeller]
9421
9422 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9423 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9424 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9425
9426 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9427 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9428 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9429 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9430 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9431 [Bodo Moeller]
9432
9433 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9434 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9435
9436 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9437 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9438 followed by modular reduction.
9439 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9440
9441 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9442 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9443 [Bodo Moeller]
9444
9445 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9446 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9447 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9448 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9449 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9450
9451 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9452 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9453
9454 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9455 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9456 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9457
9458 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9459 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9460 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9461 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9462 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9463 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9464 automatically.
9465 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9466
9467 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9468 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9469 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9470 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9471 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9472
9473 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9474 [Andy Polyakov]
9475
9476 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9477 specifically for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9478 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9479 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9480 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9481 to allow the necessary settings.
9482 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9483
9484 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9485 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9486 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9487 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9488 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9489
9490 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9491 dh->length and always used
9492
9493 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9494
9495 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9496 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9497 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9498 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9499 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9500 dh->length.
9501
9502 So switch back to
9503
9504 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9505
9506 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9507 otherwise.
9508 [Bodo Moeller]
9509
9510 *) In
9511
9512 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9513 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9514 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9515 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9516
9517 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9518 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9519 always reject numbers >= n.
9520 [Bodo Moeller]
9521
9522 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9523 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9524 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9525 variable) is not atomic.
9526 [Bodo Moeller]
9527
9528 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9529 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9530 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9531 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9532
9533 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9534 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9535
9536 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9537 little-endian MIPS.
9538 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9539
9540 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9541 [Richard Levitte]
9542
9543 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9544
9545 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9546 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9547 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9548 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9549 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9550 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9551 to traverse all of 'state'.
9552
9553 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9554 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9555 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9556
9557 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9558 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9559
9560 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9561 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9562 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9563 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9564 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9565 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9566 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9567 further strengthens the PRNG.
9568 [Bodo Moeller]
9569
9570 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9571 [Andy Polyakov]
9572
9573 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9574 an error message in this case.
9575 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9576
9577 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9578 [Steve Henson]
9579
9580 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9581 positive and less than q.
9582 [Bodo Moeller]
9583
9584 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9585 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9586 that itself.
9587 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9588
9589 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9590 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9591 [Bodo Moeller]
9592
9593 *) Fix OAEP check.
9594 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9595
9596 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9597 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9598 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9599 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9600 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9601 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9602 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9603 paper.)
9604
9605 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9606 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9607 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9608 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9609
9610 Both problems are now fixed.
9611 [Bodo Moeller]
9612
9613 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9614 (previously it was 1024).
9615 [Bodo Moeller]
9616
9617 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9618 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9619 [Steve Henson]
9620
9621 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9622 [Steve Henson]
9623
9624 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9625 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9626 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9627 [Steve Henson]
9628
9629 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9630 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9631 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
9632 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
9633 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
9634 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
9635 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
9636 environment variables.
9637
9638 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
9639 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
9640 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
9641 [Bodo Moeller]
9642
9643 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
9644 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
9645 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
9646 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
9647 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
9648 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
9649 [Bodo Moeller]
9650
9651 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
9652 versions of 'test'.
9653 [Bodo Moeller]
9654
9655 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
9656
9657 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
9658 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
9659
9660 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
9661 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
9662 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
9663 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
9664 CygWin.
9665 [Richard Levitte]
9666
9667 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
9668 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
9669 amount of data available.
9670 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
9671 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9672
9673 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
9674 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
9675 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
9676 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
9677 [Bodo Moeller]
9678
9679 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
9680 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
9681 and UnixWare.
9682 [Richard Levitte]
9683
9684 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
9685 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
9686 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
9687 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
9688 [Ulf Moeller]
9689
9690 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
9691 [Andy Polyakov]
9692
9693 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
9694 [Richard Levitte]
9695
9696 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
9697 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
9698 [Steve Henson]
9699 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9700
9701 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
9702 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
9703 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
9704 (but broken) behaviour.
9705 [Steve Henson]
9706
9707 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
9708 it when found.
9709 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
9710
9711 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
9712 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
9713 [Bodo Moeller]
9714
9715 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
9716 did not exist.
9717 [Bodo Moeller]
9718
9719 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
9720 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
9721
9722 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
9723 [Richard Levitte]
9724
9725 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
9726 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
9727 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
9728
9729 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
9730 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
9731 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
9732 [Steve Henson]
9733
9734 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
9735 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
9736 [Ulf Moeller]
9737
9738 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
9739 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
9740
9741 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
9742
9743 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
9744
9745 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
9746 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
9747 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
9748 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
9749 [Bodo Moeller]
9750
9751 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
9752 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9753
9754 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
9755 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
9756 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9757
9758 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
9759 was empty.
9760 [Steve Henson]
9761 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9762
9763 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
9764 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
9765 but the code is actually correct.
9766 [Steve Henson]
9767
9768 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
9769 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
9770 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
9771 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
9772 and leaves the highest bit random.
9773 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9774
9775 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
9776 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
9777 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
9778 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
9779 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
9780 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
9781 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
9782 [Bodo Moeller]
9783
9784 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
9785 [Ulf Moeller]
9786
9787 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
9788 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
9789 [Steve Henson]
9790
9791 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
9792 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
9793 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
9794 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
9795 headers.
9796 [Richard Levitte]
9797
9798 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
9799 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
9800 and break the signature.
9801 [Steve Henson]
9802 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9803
9804 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
9805 DH ciphersuites.
9806 [Steve Henson]
9807
9808 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
9809 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
9810 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
9811 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
9812 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
9813 [Bodo Moeller]
9814
9815 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
9816 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9817
9818 *) ./config script fixes.
9819 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
9820
9821 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
9822 [Bodo Moeller]
9823
9824 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
9825 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
9826 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
9827 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
9828 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
9829
9830 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
9831 call failed, free the DSA structure.
9832 [Bodo Moeller]
9833
9834 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
9835 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
9836 [Steve Henson]
9837
9838 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
9839 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
9840 when writing a 32767 byte record.
9841 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
9842
9843 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
9844 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
9845
9846 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
9847 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
9848 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
9849 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
9850 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
9851
9852 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
9853 [Bodo Moeller]
9854
9855 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
9856 [Ulf Möller]
9857
9858 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
9859 [Ulf Möller]
9860
9861 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
9862 [Bodo Moeller]
9863
9864 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
9865 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
9866 [Bodo Moeller]
9867
9868 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
9869 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
9870 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
9871 result of the server certificate verification.)
9872 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9873
9874 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
9875 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
9876 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
9877 [Bodo Moeller]
9878
9879 *) Fix SSL_peek:
9880 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
9881 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
9882 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
9883 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
9884 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
9885 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
9886 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
9887 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
9888 [Bodo Moeller]
9889
9890 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
9891 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
9892 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
9893 happening the other way round.
9894 [Geoff Thorpe]
9895
9896 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
9897 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
9898 [Bodo Moeller]
9899
9900 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
9901 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
9902 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
9903 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
9904 [Richard Levitte]
9905
9906 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
9907 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
9908
9909 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
9910
9911 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
9912 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
9913 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
9914 that.
9915
9916 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
9917
9918 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
9919
9920 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
9921 static ones.
9922 [Richard Levitte]
9923
9924 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
9925
9926 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
9927 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
9928 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
9929 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
9930 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
9931
9932 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
9933 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
9934 matter what.
9935 [Richard Levitte]
9936
9937 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
9938 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9939
9940 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
9941
9942 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
9943 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
9944 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
9945 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
9946 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
9947 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
9948 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
9949 by the Finished messages.
9950 [Bodo Moeller]
9951
9952 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
9953 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
9954
9955 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
9956 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
9957 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
9958 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
9959 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
9960 appropriately.
9961 [Steve Henson]
9962
9963 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
9964 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
9965 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
9966 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
9967 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
9968 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
9969 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
9970 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
9971 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
9972 together.
9973 [Steve Henson]
9974
9975 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
9976 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
9977 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
9978 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
9979
9980 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
9981 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
9982 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
9983 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
9984 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
9985 the answer.
9986
9987 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
9988 been tested well enough.
9989 [Richard Levitte]
9990
9991 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
9992 it can return incorrect results.
9993 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
9994 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
9995 [Bodo Moeller]
9996
9997 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
9998 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
9999 include zero length content when signing messages.
10000 [Steve Henson]
10001
10002 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
10003 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
10004 [Bodo Möller]
10005
10006 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
10007 [Richard Levitte]
10008
10009 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
10010 wrong sign.
10011 [Ulf Möller]
10012
10013 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
10014 packages. The default package contains applications, application
10015 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
10016 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
10017 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
10018 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
10019 [Richard Levitte]
10020
10021 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
10022 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10023
10024 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
10025 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
10026
10027 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
10028 random number < q in the DSA library.
10029 [Ulf Möller]
10030
10031 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
10032 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
10033 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
10034 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
10035 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
10036 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
10037 just makes things more complicated.)
10038 [Bodo Moeller]
10039
10040 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
10041 from EGD.
10042 [Ben Laurie]
10043
10044 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
10045 work better on such systems.
10046 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10047
10048 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
10049 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
10050 keyid to the certificates aux info.
10051 [Steve Henson]
10052
10053 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
10054 if there was more than one signature.
10055 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
10056
10057 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
10058 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
10059 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
10060 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
10061 [Richard Levitte]
10062
10063 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
10064 rather than always using the current time.
10065 [Steve Henson]
10066
10067 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
10068 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
10069 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
10070 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
10071 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
10072 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
10073
10074 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
10075 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
10076
10077 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
10078
10079 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
10080 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
10081 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
10082 the same hash value.
10083
10084 As a result various functions (which were all internal
10085 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
10086 structure. This will break anything that messed round
10087 with X509_STORE internally.
10088
10089 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
10090 exact match, rather than just subject name.
10091
10092 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
10093 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
10094 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
10095 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
10096 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
10097 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
10098 entirely (maybe later...).
10099
10100 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
10101
10102 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
10103 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
10104 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
10105 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
10106 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
10107 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
10108 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
10109 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
10110
10111 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
10112 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
10113
10114 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
10115 to customise the verify behaviour.
10116 [Steve Henson]
10117
10118 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
10119 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
10120 [Steve Henson]
10121
10122 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
10123 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
10124 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
10125 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
10126 request is improperly encoded.
10127 [Steve Henson]
10128
10129 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
10130 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
10131 BIO_write(b, ...).
10132
10133 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
10134 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
10135
10136 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
10137 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
10138 words set to zero.)
10139 [Bodo Moeller]
10140
10141 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
10142 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
10143 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
10144 [Bodo Moeller]
10145
10146 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
10147 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
10148 BIO/fp routines also added.
10149 [Steve Henson]
10150
10151 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
10152 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
10153
10154 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
10155 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
10156 demos/state_machine.
10157 [Ben Laurie]
10158
10159 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
10160 generation and verification.
10161 [Steve Henson]
10162
10163 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
10164 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
10165 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
10166 encode and decode it manually.
10167 [Steve Henson]
10168
10169 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
10170 compile under VC++.
10171 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
10172
10173 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
10174 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
10175 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
10176 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
10177
10178 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
10179 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
10180 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
10181 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
10182 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
10183 [Steve Henson]
10184
10185 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
10186 [Richard Levitte]
10187
10188 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
10189 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
10190 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
10191
10192 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
10193 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
10194 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
10195 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
10196 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
10197 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
10198 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
10199 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
10200
10201 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
10202 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
10203
10204 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
10205
10206 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
10207 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
10208 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
10209
10210 [Richard Levitte]
10211
10212 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
10213 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
10214 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
10215 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
10216 [Richard Levitte]
10217
10218 *) MD4 implemented.
10219 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
10220
10221 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
10222 [Richard Levitte]
10223
10224 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
10225 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
10226 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
10227 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
10228 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
10229 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
10230 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
10231 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
10232 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
10233 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
10234 short or long names are found.
10235 [Steve Henson]
10236
10237 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
10238 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
10239
10240 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
10241 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
10242 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
10243 version rollback attacks was not effective.
10244
10245 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
10246 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
10247 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
10248 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
10249 [Bodo Moeller]
10250
10251 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
10252 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
10253 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
10254 [Richard Levitte]
10255
10256 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
10257 these print out strings and name structures based on various
10258 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
10259 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
10260 to allow the various flags to be set.
10261 [Steve Henson]
10262
10263 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
10264 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
10265 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
10266 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
10267 dates to be checked.
10268 [Steve Henson]
10269
10270 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
10271 negative public key encodings) on by default,
10272 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
10273 [Steve Henson]
10274
10275 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
10276 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
10277 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
10278 [Steve Henson]
10279
10280 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
10281 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
10282 [Bodo Moeller]
10283
10284 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
10285 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
10286 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
10287 are always statically linked for now, but there are
10288 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
10289 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
10290 [Richard Levitte]
10291
10292 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
10293 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
10294 Random Numbers.
10295 [Ulf Möller]
10296
10297 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
10298 DSA key.
10299 [Steve Henson]
10300
10301 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
10302 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
10303 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
10304 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
10305 form signing output easier to verify.
10306 [Steve Henson]
10307
10308 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
10309 [Steve Henson]
10310
10311 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
10312 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
10313 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
10314 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
10315 are needed because all other string types have virtually
10316 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
10317 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
10318 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
10319 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
10320 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
10321 [Steve Henson]
10322
10323 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
10324
10325 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
10326 the syntax given in objects.README.
10327 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
10328 obj_mac.h.
10329 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
10330 obj_mac.h.
10331
10332 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
10333 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
10334 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
10335 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
10336 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
10337 consistent name changes.
10338 [Richard Levitte]
10339
10340 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
10341 [Bodo Moeller]
10342
10343 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10344 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10345 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10346 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10347 [Richard Levitte]
10348
10349 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10350 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10351 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10352 of safestack.h .
10353 [Steve Henson]
10354
10355 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10356 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10357 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10358 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10359 [Steve Henson]
10360
10361 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10362 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10363 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10364 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10365 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10366 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10367 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10368 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10369 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10370 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10371 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10372 [Steve Henson]
10373
10374 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10375 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10376 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10377 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10378 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10379 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10380 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10381 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10382 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10383 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10384 [Steve Henson]
10385
10386 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10387 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10388 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10389 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10390
10391 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10392 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10393 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10394 omit any duplicate addresses.
10395 [Steve Henson]
10396
10397 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10398 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10399 [Bodo Moeller]
10400
10401 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10402 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10403 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10404 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10405 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10406 [Bodo Moeller]
10407
10408 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10409 software:
10410 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10411 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10412 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10413 Free => OPENSSL_free
10414 [Richard Levitte]
10415
10416 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10417 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10418 [Bodo Moeller]
10419
10420 *) CygWin32 support.
10421 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10422
10423 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10424 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10425 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10426 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10427 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10428 approach.
10429 [Geoff Thorpe]
10430
10431 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10432 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10433 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10434 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10435 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10436 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10437 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10438 [Geoff Thorpe]
10439
10440 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10441 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10442 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10443 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10444 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10445 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10446 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10447 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10448 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10449 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10450 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10451 [Bodo Moeller]
10452
10453 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10454 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10455 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10456 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10457 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10458
10459 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10460 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10461 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10462 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10463 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10464
10465 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10466 ciphers.
10467
10468 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10469 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10470 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10471 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10472
10473 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10474
10475 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10476 of macros.
10477
10478 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10479 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10480 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10481 flags.
10482
10483 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10484 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10485 any installed hardware versions can.
10486 [Steve Henson]
10487
10488 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10489 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10490 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10491 number.
10492 [Bodo Moeller]
10493
10494 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10495 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10496 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10497 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10498 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10499
10500 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10501 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10502 [Steve Henson]
10503
10504 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10505 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10506 [Richard Levitte]
10507
10508 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10509 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10510 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10511 features.
10512 [Steve Henson]
10513
10514 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10515 [Ulf Möller]
10516
10517 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10518 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10519 but no ssl client purpose.
10520 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10521
10522 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10523 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10524 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10525 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10526 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10527 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10528 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10529 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10530 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10531 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10532 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10533 [Steve Henson]
10534
10535 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10536 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10537 be obtained from the error queue.
10538 [Bodo Moeller]
10539
10540 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10541 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10542 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10543 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10544 [Bodo Moeller]
10545
10546 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10547 [Ulf Möller]
10548
10549 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10550 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10551 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10552 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10553 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10554 [Geoff Thorpe]
10555
10556 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10557 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10558 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10559 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10560 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10561 [Geoff Thorpe]
10562
10563 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10564 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10565 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10566 may not be NULL.
10567 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10568
10569 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10570 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10571 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10572 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10573 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10574 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10575 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10576 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10577 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10578 or "the configuration storage API"...
10579
10580 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10581
10582 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10583 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10584
10585 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10586
10587 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10588
10589 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10590 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10591 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10592 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10593 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10594 arguments as the old CONF_* functions with the exception of the
10595 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10596
10597 To make it easier to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10598 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10599 [Richard Levitte]
10600
10601 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10602 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10603 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10604 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10605 [Bodo Moeller]
10606
10607 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10608 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10609 them in a portable way.
10610 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10611
10612 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10613
10614 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10615
10616 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10617 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10618
10619 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10620 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10621 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10622 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10623
10624 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10625 was larger than the MD block size.
10626 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10627
10628 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10629 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10630 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10631 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
10632 components.
10633 [Steve Henson]
10634
10635 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
10636 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
10637 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
10638
10639 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
10640 discouraged.
10641 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
10642
10643 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
10644 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
10645 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
10646 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
10647 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
10648 Additional arguments are always ignored.
10649
10650 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
10651 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
10652
10653 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
10654 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
10655 [Bodo Moeller]
10656
10657 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
10658 [Bodo Moeller]
10659
10660 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
10661 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
10662 its own key.
10663 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
10664 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
10665 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
10666 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
10667 [Bodo Moeller]
10668
10669 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
10670 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
10671 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
10672 does not suppress any output.
10673 [Richard Levitte]
10674
10675 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
10676 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
10677 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
10678 with all the associated security issues.
10679
10680 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
10681 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
10682 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
10683 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
10684 use the value in the default purpose.
10685 [Steve Henson]
10686
10687 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
10688 and fix a memory leak.
10689 [Steve Henson]
10690
10691 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
10692 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
10693 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
10694 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
10695 [Bodo Moeller]
10696
10697 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
10698 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
10699 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
10700 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
10701 [Bodo Moeller]
10702
10703 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
10704 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
10705 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
10706 [Bodo Moeller]
10707
10708 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
10709 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
10710 [Bodo Moeller]
10711
10712 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
10713 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
10714 which was free.
10715 [Steve Henson]
10716
10717 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
10718 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
10719 [Bodo Moeller]
10720
10721 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
10722 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
10723 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
10724 [Bodo Moeller]
10725
10726 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
10727 number generation fails.
10728 [Bodo Moeller]
10729
10730 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
10731 [Bodo Moeller]
10732
10733 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
10734 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
10735
10736 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
10737 [Ulf Möller]
10738
10739 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
10740 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
10741
10742 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
10743 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
10744
10745 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
10746
10747 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
10748 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
10749 [Steve Henson]
10750
10751 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
10752 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
10753
10754 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
10755 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
10756 [Ulf Möller]
10757
10758 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
10759 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
10760 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
10761 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
10762 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
10763 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
10764
10765 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
10766 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
10767 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
10768 for example.
10769 [Steve Henson]
10770
10771 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
10772 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
10773 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
10774 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
10775 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
10776 counter, some don't.)
10777 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
10778 counters or duplicate objects.
10779 [Steve Henson]
10780
10781 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
10782 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
10783 [Steve Henson]
10784
10785 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
10786 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
10787 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
10788
10789 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
10790 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
10791 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
10792 or -rand.
10793 [Ulf Möller]
10794
10795 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
10796 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
10797 [Steve Henson]
10798
10799 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
10800 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
10801 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
10802 cipher list.
10803 [Steve Henson]
10804
10805 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
10806 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
10807 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
10808 [Steve Henson]
10809
10810 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
10811 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
10812 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
10813 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
10814 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
10815 should work without changes.
10816 [Richard Levitte]
10817
10818 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
10819 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
10820 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
10821 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
10822 must be defined. E.g.,
10823 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
10824 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
10825 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
10826 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
10827
10828 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
10829 record layer.
10830 [Bodo Moeller]
10831
10832 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
10833 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
10834 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
10835 [Steve Henson]
10836
10837 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
10838 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
10839 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
10840 request header lines. Some software needs this.
10841 [Steve Henson]
10842
10843 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
10844 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
10845 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
10846 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
10847 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
10848 is prompted for as usual.
10849 [Steve Henson]
10850
10851 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
10852 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
10853 autodetect the card and use it if present.
10854 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
10855
10856 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
10857 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
10858 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
10859 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
10860 [Steve Henson]
10861
10862 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
10863 [Andy Polyakov]
10864
10865 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
10866 of seed file.
10867 [Steve Henson]
10868
10869 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
10870 [Bodo Moeller]
10871
10872 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
10873 [Steve Henson]
10874
10875 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
10876 bits.
10877 [Ulf Möller]
10878
10879 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
10880 [Ulf Möller]
10881
10882 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
10883 [Andy Polyakov]
10884
10885 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
10886 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
10887 [Ulf Möller]
10888
10889 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
10890 options to produce them.
10891 [Steve Henson]
10892
10893 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
10894 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
10895 [Ulf Möller]
10896
10897 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
10898 for p == 0.
10899 [Ulf Möller]
10900
10901 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
10902 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
10903 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
10904 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
10905 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
10906 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
10907 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
10908 [Steve Henson]
10909
10910 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
10911 [Steve Henson]
10912
10913 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
10914 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
10915 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
10916 [Bodo Moeller]
10917
10918 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
10919 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
10920
10921 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
10922 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
10923 [Ulf Möller]
10924
10925 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
10926 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
10927 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
10928 has already seen).
10929 [Bodo Moeller]
10930
10931 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
10932 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
10933
10934 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
10935 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
10936 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
10937 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
10938 generation becomes much faster.
10939
10940 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
10941 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
10942 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
10943 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
10944 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
10945 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
10946 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
10947 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
10948 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
10949 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
10950 [Bodo Moeller]
10951
10952 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
10953 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
10954 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
10955 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
10956 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
10957 trial division stage.
10958 [Bodo Moeller]
10959
10960 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
10961 as ASN1_TIME.
10962 [Steve Henson]
10963
10964 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
10965 [Steve Henson]
10966
10967 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
10968 [Ulf Möller]
10969
10970 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
10971 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
10972 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
10973 the comments.
10974 [Ulf Möller]
10975
10976 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
10977 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
10978 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
10979 [Bodo Moeller]
10980
10981 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
10982 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
10983 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
10984 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
10985
10986 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
10987 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
10988 [Steve Henson]
10989
10990 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
10991 [Ulf Möller]
10992
10993 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
10994 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
10995 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
10996 Rabin-Miller iterations.
10997 [Ulf Möller]
10998
10999 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
11000 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
11001 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
11002 [Ulf Möller]
11003
11004 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
11005 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
11006 (instead of parameters) in future.
11007 [Steve Henson]
11008
11009 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
11010 when a new cipher list is set.
11011 [Steve Henson]
11012
11013 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
11014 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
11015 wrong.
11016
11017 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
11018 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
11019 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
11020
11021 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
11022 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
11023 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
11024 an error is flagged.
11025
11026 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
11027 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
11028 the readability was also increased :-)
11029 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
11030
11031 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
11032 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
11033 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
11034 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
11035 as the root CA.
11036 [Steve Henson]
11037
11038 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
11039 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
11040 [Steve Henson]
11041
11042 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
11043 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
11044 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
11045 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
11046 instead.
11047
11048 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
11049 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
11050 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
11051 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
11052 because they handle more complex structures.)
11053 [Steve Henson]
11054
11055 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
11056 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
11057 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
11058 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
11059
11060 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
11061 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
11062 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
11063 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
11064 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
11065 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
11066 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
11067 [Ulf Möller]
11068
11069 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
11070 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
11071 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
11072 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
11073 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
11074 [Bodo Moeller]
11075
11076 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
11077 [Bodo Moeller]
11078
11079 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
11080 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
11081 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
11082 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
11083 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
11084 to use this.
11085
11086 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
11087 code.
11088 [Steve Henson]
11089
11090 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
11091 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
11092 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
11093 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
11094 [Steve Henson]
11095
11096 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
11097 [Ulf Möller]
11098
11099 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
11100 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
11101 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
11102 international characters are used.
11103
11104 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
11105 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
11106 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
11107 in ASN1 order.
11108 [Steve Henson]
11109
11110 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
11111 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
11112 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
11113 request.
11114
11115 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
11116 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
11117 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
11118 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
11119 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
11120 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
11121
11122 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
11123 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
11124 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
11125 be handled by the string table functions.
11126
11127 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
11128 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
11129 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
11130 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
11131 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
11132 types at all.
11133 [Steve Henson]
11134
11135 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
11136 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
11137 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
11138 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
11139 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
11140
11141 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
11142 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
11143 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
11144 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
11145 [Bodo Moeller]
11146
11147 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
11148 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
11149 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
11150 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
11151 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
11152 SHA1.
11153 [Andy Polyakov]
11154
11155 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
11156 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
11157 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
11158 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
11159 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
11160 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
11161 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
11162 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
11163
11164 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
11165 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
11166 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
11167 [Steve Henson]
11168
11169 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
11170 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
11171 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
11172 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
11173 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
11174 support to pkcs8 application.
11175 [Steve Henson]
11176
11177 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
11178 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
11179 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
11180 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
11181 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
11182 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
11183 [Bodo Moeller]
11184
11185 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
11186 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
11187 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
11188 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
11189 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
11190 consistency.
11191 [Bodo Moeller]
11192
11193 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
11194 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
11195 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
11196 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
11197 example.
11198 [Steve Henson]
11199
11200 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
11201 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
11202 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
11203 and any application specific purposes.
11204
11205 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
11206 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
11207 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
11208 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
11209 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
11210 if the certificate is self signed.
11211 [Steve Henson]
11212
11213 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
11214 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
11215 [Steve Henson]
11216
11217 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
11218 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
11219 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
11220 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
11221 [Steve Henson]
11222
11223 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
11224 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
11225 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
11226 Update documentation.
11227 [Steve Henson]
11228
11229 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
11230 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
11231 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
11232 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
11233 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
11234 [Steve Henson]
11235
11236 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
11237 for details.
11238 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
11239
11240 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
11241 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
11242 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
11243 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
11244 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
11245 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
11246 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
11247 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
11248 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
11249 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
11250
11251 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
11252
11253 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11254 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11255 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
11256 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
11257 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
11258
11259 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
11260 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
11261 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
11262 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
11263 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
11264 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
11265 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
11266 request additional information:
11267 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
11268 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
11269
11270 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
11271 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
11272 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
11273 options.
11274
11275 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
11276 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
11277
11278 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
11279 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
11280 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
11281
11282 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
11283 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
11284
11285 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
11286 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
11287 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
11288 algorithm.
11289 [Steve Henson]
11290
11291 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
11292 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
11293 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
11294
11295 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
11296 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
11297 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
11298 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
11299 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
11300 included in OpenSSL.
11301 [Steve Henson]
11302
11303 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
11304 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
11305 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
11306 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
11307 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
11308 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
11309 [Bodo Moeller]
11310
11311 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
11312 PKCS12 structure.
11313 [Steve Henson]
11314
11315 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
11316 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
11317 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
11318 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
11319 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
11320 structure.
11321 [Steve Henson]
11322
11323 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
11324 need initialising.
11325 [Steve Henson]
11326
11327 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
11328 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
11329 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
11330 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
11331 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
11332 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
11333 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
11334 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
11335 be maintained manually.
11336
11337 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
11338 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
11339 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
11340 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
11341 work because people forget to call this function]
11342 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11343 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11344 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11345 [Steve Henson]
11346
11347 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11348 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11349 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11350 should be discouraged from doing it.
11351 [Ben Laurie]
11352
11353 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11354 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11355 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11356 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11357 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11358 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11359 [Steve Henson]
11360
11361 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11362 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11363 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11364
11365 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11366 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11367 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11368
11369 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11370 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11371 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11372 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11373 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11374 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11375
11376 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11377 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11378 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11379
11380 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11381 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11382 and vice versa.
11383
11384 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11385 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11386 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11387 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11388 [Steve Henson]
11389
11390 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11391 [Steve Henson]
11392
11393 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11394 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11395 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11396 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11397 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11398 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11399 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11400 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11401 keys so we should be OK.
11402
11403 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11404 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11405 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11406 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11407 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11408 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11409 stay in the name of compatibility.
11410
11411 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11412 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11413 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11414
11415 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11416 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11417 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11418 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11419 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11420 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11421 supplied key).
11422 [Steve Henson]
11423
11424 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11425 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11426 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11427 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11428 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11429 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11430 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11431 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11432 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11433 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11434 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11435 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11436 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11437 [Steve Henson]
11438
11439 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11440 [Steve Henson]
11441
11442 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11443 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11444 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11445 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11446 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11447 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11448 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11449 openssl verify ss.pem
11450 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11451 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11452 is OK.
11453 [Steve Henson]
11454
11455 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11456 (and add it to external session representation).
11457 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11458 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11459 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11460 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11461 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11462 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11463 security holes.
11464 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11465
11466 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11467 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11468 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11469 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11470
11471 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11472 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11473 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11474 [Steve Henson]
11475
11476 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11477 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11478 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11479 code.
11480 [Steve Henson]
11481
11482 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11483 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11484 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11485
11486 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11487 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11488 certificate auxiliary information.
11489 [Steve Henson]
11490
11491 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11492 the 'enc' command.
11493 [Steve Henson]
11494
11495 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11496 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11497 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11498 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11499 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11500 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11501 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11502 [Richard Levitte]
11503
11504 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11505 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11506 [Steve Henson]
11507
11508 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11509 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11510 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11511 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11512 [Steve Henson]
11513
11514 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11515 [Steve Henson]
11516
11517 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11518 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11519 [Steve Henson]
11520
11521 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11522 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11523 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11524 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11525 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11526 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11527 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11528 using the new 'x509' options.
11529
11530 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11531 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11532 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11533 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11534 for all purposes.
11535 [Steve Henson]
11536
11537 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11538 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11539 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11540 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11541 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11542 [Mark Cox]
11543
11544 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11545 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11546 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11547 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11548 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11549 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11550 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11551 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11552 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11553 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11554 [Steve Henson]
11555
11556 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11557 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11558 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11559 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11560 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11561 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11562 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11563 [Steve Henson]
11564
11565 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11566 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11567 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11568 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11569 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11570 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11571 openssl.cnf for more info.
11572 [Steve Henson]
11573
11574 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11575 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11576 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11577 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11578 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11579 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11580 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11581 md should be large enough anyway.
11582 [Bodo Moeller]
11583
11584 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11585 for handling the random seed file.
11586
11587 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11588 ca,
11589 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11590 s_client,
11591 s_server,
11592 x509 (when signing).
11593 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11594 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11595 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11596
11597 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11598 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11599 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11600 that support '-rand'.
11601 [Bodo Moeller]
11602
11603 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11604 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11605 [Bodo Moeller]
11606
11607 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11608 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11609 [Bill Perry]
11610
11611 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11612 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11613 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11614 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11615 is suitable.
11616 [Steve Henson]
11617
11618 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11619 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11620 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11621 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11622 [Steve Henson]
11623
11624 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11625 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11626 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11627 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11628 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11629 print out all the purposes.
11630 [Steve Henson]
11631
11632 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
11633 functions.
11634 [Steve Henson]
11635
11636 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
11637 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
11638 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
11639 single function call.
11640 [Steve Henson]
11641
11642 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
11643 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
11644 [Andy Polyakov]
11645
11646 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
11647 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
11648 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
11649 [Steve Henson]
11650
11651 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
11652 when producing the local key id.
11653 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11654
11655 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
11656 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
11657 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
11658 "server.pem".
11659 [Steve Henson]
11660
11661 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
11662 a public key to be input or output. For example:
11663 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
11664 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
11665 [Steve Henson]
11666
11667 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
11668 in the message. This was handled by allowing
11669 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
11670 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
11671
11672 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
11673 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
11674 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
11675 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11676
11677 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
11678 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
11679 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
11680 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
11681 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
11682 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
11683 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
11684 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
11685 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
11686 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
11687 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
11688 trivial: move one line.
11689 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
11690
11691 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
11692 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
11693 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
11694 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
11695 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
11696 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
11697 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
11698 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
11699 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
11700 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
11701 with an event loop for example.
11702 [Steve Henson]
11703
11704 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
11705 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
11706 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
11707 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
11708 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
11709 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
11710 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
11711 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
11712 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
11713 [Steve Henson]
11714
11715 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
11716 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
11717 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
11718 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
11719 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
11720 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
11721 [Steve Henson]
11722
11723 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
11724 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
11725 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
11726 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
11727
11728 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
11729 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
11730 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
11731 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
11732 key generation.
11733 [Steve Henson]
11734
11735 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
11736 (still largely untested)
11737 [Bodo Moeller]
11738
11739 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
11740 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
11741 [Steve Henson]
11742
11743 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
11744 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
11745 [Steve Henson]
11746
11747 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
11748 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
11749 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
11750 [Bodo Moeller]
11751
11752 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
11753 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
11754 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
11755 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
11756 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
11757 [Steve Henson]
11758
11759 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
11760 [Andy Polyakov]
11761
11762 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
11763 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
11764 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
11765 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
11766 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
11767 in ca.
11768 [Steve Henson]
11769
11770 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
11771 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
11772 1.OU="Unit name 1"
11773 2.OU="Unit name 2"
11774 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
11775 [Steve Henson]
11776
11777 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
11778 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
11779 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
11780 are otherwise ignored at present.
11781 [Steve Henson]
11782
11783 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
11784 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
11785 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
11786 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
11787 copied until the next read.
11788 [Steve Henson]
11789
11790 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
11791 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
11792 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
11793 [Steve Henson]
11794
11795 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
11796 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
11797 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
11798 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
11799 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
11800 associated functions.
11801 [Steve Henson]
11802
11803 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
11804 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
11805 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
11806 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
11807 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
11808 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
11809 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
11810 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
11811 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
11812 memory BIOs.
11813 [Steve Henson]
11814
11815 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
11816 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
11817 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
11818 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
11819 [Bodo Moeller]
11820
11821 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
11822 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
11823 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
11824 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
11825 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
11826 functionality.
11827 [Steve Henson]
11828
11829 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
11830 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
11831 under Win32.
11832 [Steve Henson]
11833
11834 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
11835 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
11836 extensions to be obtained and added.
11837 [Steve Henson]
11838
11839 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
11840 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
11841 [Bodo Moeller]
11842
11843 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
11844
11845 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11846 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11847
11848 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
11849 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
11850
11851 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
11852 program.
11853 [Steve Henson]
11854
11855 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
11856 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
11857 DH parameters contain its length).
11858
11859 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
11860 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
11861 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
11862 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
11863 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
11864 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
11865 utter importance to use
11866 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11867 or
11868 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11869 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
11870 attacks may become possible!
11871 [Bodo Moeller]
11872
11873 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
11874 [Bodo Moeller]
11875
11876 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
11877 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
11878 [Steve Henson]
11879
11880 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
11881 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
11882 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
11883 or long name.
11884 [Steve Henson]
11885
11886 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
11887 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
11888 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
11889 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
11890 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
11891 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
11892 private key operations.
11893 [Steve Henson]
11894
11895 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
11896 [Andy Polyakov]
11897
11898 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
11899 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
11900 to
11901 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
11902 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
11903 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
11904 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
11905 the password callback is called.
11906 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
11907
11908 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
11909
11910 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
11911 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
11912 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
11913 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
11914 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
11915 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
11916 this will work.
11917
11918 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
11919 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
11920 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
11921 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
11922 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
11923 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
11924 [Bodo Moeller]
11925
11926 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
11927 [Andy Polyakov]
11928
11929 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
11930 delete an unused file.
11931 [Ulf Möller]
11932
11933 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
11934 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
11935 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
11936 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
11937 [Steve Henson]
11938
11939 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
11940 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
11941 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
11942 of an error.
11943 [Bodo Moeller]
11944
11945 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
11946 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
11947 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
11948
11949 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
11950 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
11951 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
11952 comparison" warnings.
11953 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
11954 [Steve Henson]
11955
11956 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
11957 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
11958 derived keys are printed to stderr.
11959 [Steve Henson]
11960
11961 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
11962 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
11963
11964 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
11965 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
11966
11967 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
11968 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
11969 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
11970
11971 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
11972 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
11973 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
11974 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
11975 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
11976 this bug.
11977 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
11978
11979 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
11980 The interface is as follows:
11981 Applications can use
11982 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
11983 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
11984 "off" is now the default.
11985 The library internally uses
11986 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
11987 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
11988 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
11989
11990 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
11991 even the default) are now avoided.
11992
11993 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
11994 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
11995 than just having a counter.
11996
11997 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
11998
11999 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
12000 extensions.
12001 [Bodo Moeller]
12002
12003 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
12004 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
12005 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
12006 Initial "mode" flags are:
12007
12008 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
12009 a single record has been written.
12010 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
12011 retries use the same buffer location.
12012 (But all of the contents must be
12013 copied!)
12014 [Bodo Moeller]
12015
12016 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
12017 worked.
12018
12019 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
12020 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
12021
12022 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
12023 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
12024 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
12025 [Steve Henson]
12026
12027 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
12028 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
12029 test programs.
12030 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
12031
12032 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
12033 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
12034 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
12035 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
12036 point to the end.
12037 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
12038 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
12039
12040 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
12041 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
12042 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
12043 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
12044 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
12045 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
12046 [Steve Henson]
12047
12048 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
12049 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
12050 necessary function names.
12051 [Steve Henson]
12052
12053 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
12054 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
12055 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
12056 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
12057 [Bodo Moeller]
12058
12059 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
12060 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
12061 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
12062 [Steve Henson]
12063
12064 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
12065 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
12066 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
12067 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
12068 such programs?)
12069 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
12070 need locks.
12071 [Bodo Moeller]
12072
12073 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
12074 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
12075 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
12076 [Bodo Moeller]
12077
12078 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
12079 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
12080 appropriate.
12081 [Bodo Moeller]
12082
12083 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
12084 for the encoded length.
12085 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
12086
12087 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
12088 [Steve Henson]
12089
12090 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
12091 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
12092 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
12093 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
12094 [Steve Henson]
12095
12096 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
12097 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
12098 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12099
12100 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
12101 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
12102 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
12103 unusual formatting.
12104 [Steve Henson]
12105
12106 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
12107 to use the new extension code.
12108 [Steve Henson]
12109
12110 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
12111 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
12112 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
12113 constant.
12114 [Steve Henson]
12115
12116 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
12117 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
12118 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
12119 [Bodo Moeller]
12120
12121#if 0
12122 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
12123 [Ben Laurie]
12124#else
12125 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
12126 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
12127 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
12128#endif
12129
12130 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
12131 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
12132 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
12133 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
12134 [Ben Laurie]
12135
12136 *) DES library cleanups.
12137 [Ulf Möller]
12138
12139 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
12140 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
12141 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
12142 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
12143 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
12144 of v2.0.
12145 [Steve Henson]
12146
12147 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
12148 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
12149 [Bodo Moeller]
12150
12151 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
12152 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
12153 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
12154 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
12155 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
12156 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
12157 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
12158 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
12159 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
12160 [Steve Henson]
12161
12162 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
12163 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
12164 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
12165 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
12166 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
12167 value doesn't matter.
12168 [Steve Henson]
12169
12170 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
12171 support mutable.
12172 [Ben Laurie]
12173
12174 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
12175 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
12176 "linux-sparc" configuration.
12177 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
12178
12179 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
12180 [Ulf Möller]
12181
12182 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
12183 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
12184 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12185
12186 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
12187 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12188
12189 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
12190 [Ben Laurie]
12191
12192 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
12193 [Ben Laurie]
12194
12195 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
12196 [Ben Laurie]
12197
12198 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
12199 [Bodo Moeller]
12200
12201
12202 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
12203
12204 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
12205
12206 *) Updated some demos.
12207 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
12208
12209 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
12210 [Wu Zhigang]
12211
12212 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
12213 [Steve Henson]
12214
12215 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
12216 [Steve Henson]
12217
12218 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
12219 instead of using a fixed path.
12220 [Bodo Moeller]
12221
12222 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
12223 [Andy Polyakov]
12224
12225 *) Improvements for VMS support.
12226 [Richard Levitte]
12227
12228
12229 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
12230
12231 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
12232 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
12233 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12234
12235 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
12236 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
12237 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
12238 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
12239 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
12240 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
12241 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
12242 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
12243 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
12244 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
12245 [Steve Henson]
12246
12247 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
12248 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
12249 [Steve Henson]
12250
12251 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
12252 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
12253 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
12254 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
12255 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
12256
12257 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
12258 [Bodo Moeller]
12259
12260 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
12261 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
12262 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
12263 [Steve Henson]
12264
12265 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
12266 [Ben Laurie]
12267
12268 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
12269 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
12270 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
12271 key elements as negative integers.
12272 [Steve Henson]
12273
12274 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
12275 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12276
12277 *) VMS support.
12278 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
12279
12280 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
12281 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
12282 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
12283 [Steve Henson]
12284
12285 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
12286 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
12287 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
12288 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
12289 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
12290 [Bodo Moeller]
12291
12292 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
12293 [Ulf Möller]
12294
12295 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
12296 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
12297 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
12298 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12299
12300 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
12301 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
12302 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
12303
12304 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
12305 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
12306 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
12307 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
12308 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
12309 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
12310 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
12311 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
12312 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
12313
12314 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
12315 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
12316 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
12317 does not influence s as it used to.
12318
12319 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
12320 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
12321 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
12322 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
12323 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
12324 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
12325 [Bodo Moeller]
12326
12327 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
12328 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
12329 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
12330 key type.
12331 [Steve Henson]
12332
12333 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
12334 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
12335 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
12336 and 'x509').
12337 [Steve Henson]
12338
12339 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
12340 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
12341 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12342 extension option.
12343 [Steve Henson]
12344
12345 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12346 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12347 [Ben Laurie]
12348
12349 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12350 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12351
12352 *) Support Mingw32.
12353 [Ulf Möller]
12354
12355 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12356 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12357
12358 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12359 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12360
12361 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12362 [Ulf Möller]
12363
12364 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12365 [Anonymous]
12366
12367 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12368 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12369
12370 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12371 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12372 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12373 DER-encoded.)
12374 [Bodo Moeller]
12375
12376 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12377 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12378 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12379 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12380 now it really counts the depth.
12381 [Bodo Moeller]
12382
12383 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12384 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12385 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12386 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12387 didn't match the private key).
12388
12389 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12390 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12391 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12392 [Bodo Moeller]
12393
12394 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12395 [Ulf Möller]
12396
12397 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12398 David Harris.
12399 [Bodo Moeller]
12400
12401 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12402 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12403 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12404 [Bodo Moeller]
12405
12406 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12407 [Bodo Moeller]
12408
12409 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12410 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12411 such as /usr/local/bin.
12412 [Bodo Moeller]
12413
12414 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12415 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12416
12417 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12418 [Ulf Möller]
12419
12420 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12421 extension adding in x509 utility.
12422 [Steve Henson]
12423
12424 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12425 [Ulf Möller]
12426
12427 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12428 prototypes.
12429 [Steve Henson]
12430
12431 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12432 [Ulf Möller]
12433
12434 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12435 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12436 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12437 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12438 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12439 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12440 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code embedded
12441 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12442 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12443 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12444 [Steve Henson]
12445
12446 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12447 [Bodo Moeller]
12448
12449 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12450 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12451 [Bodo Moeller]
12452
12453 *) Fix some race conditions.
12454 [Bodo Moeller]
12455
12456 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12457 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12458 [Steve Henson]
12459
12460 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12461 [Ulf Möller]
12462
12463 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12464 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12465 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12466 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12467
12468 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12469 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12470
12471 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12472 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12473 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12474
12475 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12476 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12477
12478 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12479 [Ulf Möller]
12480
12481 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12482 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12483
12484 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12485 [Ulf Möller]
12486
12487 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12488 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12489
12490 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12491 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12492 [Steve Henson]
12493
12494 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12495 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12496 [Ben Laurie]
12497
12498 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12499 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12500 [Steve Henson]
12501
12502 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12503 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12504 [Steve Henson]
12505
12506 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12507 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12508 [Steve Henson]
12509
12510 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12511 support typesafe stack.
12512 [Steve Henson]
12513
12514 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12515 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12516
12517 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12518 old X509V3 handling code.
12519 [Steve Henson]
12520
12521 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12522 [Ulf Möller]
12523
12524 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12525 [Bodo Moeller]
12526
12527 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12528 [Ben Laurie]
12529
12530 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12531 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12532
12533 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12534 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12535 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12536 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12537 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12538 [Ben Laurie]
12539
12540 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12541 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12542 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12543 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12544 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12545
12546 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12547 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12548 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12549 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12550
12551 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12552 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12553 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12554 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12555
12556 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12557 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12558 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12559 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12560 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12561 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12562 [Bodo Moeller]
12563
12564 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12565 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12566 [Bodo Moeller]
12567
12568 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12569 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12570 [Ulf Möller]
12571
12572 *) Tweaks to Configure
12573 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12574
12575 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12576 yet...
12577 [Steve Henson]
12578
12579 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12580 [Ulf Möller]
12581
12582 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12583 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12584 [Ulf Möller]
12585
12586 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12587 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12588 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12589 [Bodo Moeller]
12590
12591 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12592 [Bodo Moeller]
12593
12594 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12595 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12596 [Steve Henson]
12597
12598 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12599 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12600 to library startup routines.
12601 [Steve Henson]
12602
12603 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12604 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12605 codes along the way.
12606 [Steve Henson]
12607
12608 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12609 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12610 objects to objects.h
12611 [Steve Henson]
12612
12613 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12614 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12615 [Steve Henson]
12616
12617 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12618 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12619
12620 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12621 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12622 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12623
12624 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12625 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12626 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12627
12628 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12629 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12630 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12631
12632
12633 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
12634
12635 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
12636 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
12637 [Ben Laurie]
12638
12639 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
12640 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
12641 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
12642 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
12643 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
12644
12645 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
12646 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
12647 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
12648 document.
12649 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12650
12651 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
12652 Malloc, Free.
12653 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
12654
12655 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
12656 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12657
12658 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
12659 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
12660 if someone would make that last step automatic.
12661 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
12662
12663 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
12664 [Ben Laurie]
12665
12666 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
12667 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
12668 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
12669 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
12670 [Steve Henson]
12671
12672 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
12673 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
12674 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
12675 [Steve Henson]
12676
12677 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
12678 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
12679 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
12680 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
12681 installed as `perl').
12682 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12683
12684 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
12685 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12686
12687 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
12688 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
12689 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
12690 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
12691 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
12692 [Steve Henson]
12693
12694 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
12695 [Ben Laurie]
12696
12697 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
12698 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
12699 is horrible: I feel ill....
12700 [Steve Henson]
12701
12702 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
12703 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
12704 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
12705 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
12706 [Steve Henson]
12707
12708 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
12709 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12710
12711 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
12712 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
12713 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
12714 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12715
12716 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
12717 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
12718 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
12719 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
12720 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
12721 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
12722 openssl_bio.xs.
12723 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12724
12725 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
12726 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12727
12728 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
12729 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
12730
12731 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
12732 [Ben Laurie]
12733
12734 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
12735 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
12736 in CRLs.
12737 [Steve Henson]
12738
12739 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
12740 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
12741 Configure script every time: One now can use ``perl Configure
12742 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
12743 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
12744 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
12745 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
12746 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
12747 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
12748 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
12749 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12750
12751 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
12752 [Ben Laurie]
12753
12754 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
12755 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
12756 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
12757 for linking it into DSOs.
12758 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12759
12760 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
12761 Fixed.
12762 [Ben Laurie]
12763
12764 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
12765 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
12766 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
12767 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
12768 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
12769 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12770
12771 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
12772 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
12773 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
12774 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
12775 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
12776 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
12777 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12778
12779 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
12780 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
12781 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
12782 encryption.
12783 [Ben Laurie]
12784
12785 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
12786 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
12787 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
12788 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
12789 [Steve Henson]
12790
12791 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
12792 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
12793 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
12794 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
12795 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
12796 field as blank.
12797 [Steve Henson]
12798
12799 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
12800 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
12801 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
12802 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
12803 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12804
12805 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
12806 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
12807 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12808
12809 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
12810 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12811
12812 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
12813 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
12814 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
12815 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
12816 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
12817 [Steve Henson]
12818
12819 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
12820 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
12821 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
12822 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
12823 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
12824 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
12825 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
12826 [Ben Laurie]
12827
12828 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
12829 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
12830 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
12831 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
12832 [Ben Laurie]
12833
12834 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
12835 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
12836
12837 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
12838 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
12839 [Steve Henson]
12840
12841 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
12842 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
12843 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
12844 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
12845 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
12846 (e.g. s_server).
12847 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
12848 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
12849 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
12850 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
12851 no way to reconfigure them.
12852 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
12853 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
12854 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
12855 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
12856 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
12857 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12858
12859 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
12860 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
12861 recognized by the users.
12862 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12863
12864 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
12865 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
12866 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
12867 already masked variable.
12868 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12869
12870 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
12871 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12872
12873 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
12874 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
12875 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
12876 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12877
12878 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
12879 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
12880 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12881
12882 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
12883 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
12884 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
12885 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
12886 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
12887 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
12888 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
12889 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
12890 now, too.
12891 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12892
12893 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
12894 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
12895 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12896
12897 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
12898 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
12899 config file.
12900 [Steve Henson]
12901
12902 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
12903 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12904
12905 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
12906 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
12907 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
12908 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
12909 [Ben Laurie]
12910
12911 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
12912 [Steve Henson]
12913
12914 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
12915 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12916
12917 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
12918 [Ben Laurie]
12919
12920 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
12921 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
12922 [Steve Henson]
12923
12924 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
12925 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
12926 [Steve Henson]
12927
12928 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
12929 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
12930 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
12931 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
12932 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
12933 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
12934 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
12935 Ben Laurie]
12936
12937 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
12938 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12939
12940 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
12941 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
12942 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
12943 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
12944 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12945
12946 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
12947 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
12948 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
12949 [Steve Henson]
12950
12951 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
12952 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
12953 an example.
12954 [Steve Henson]
12955
12956 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
12957 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
12958 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12959
12960 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
12961 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
12962 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
12963 build instructions.
12964 [Steve Henson]
12965
12966 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
12967 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
12968 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
12969 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
12970 [Steve Henson]
12971
12972 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
12973 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
12974 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
12975 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
12976 [Ben Laurie]
12977
12978 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
12979 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
12980 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
12981 so it wasn't spotted.
12982 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
12983
12984 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
12985 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
12986 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
12987 vectors if you have them.
12988 [Ben Laurie]
12989
12990 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
12991 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
12992 [Ben Laurie]
12993
12994 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
12995 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
12996 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
12997 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
12998 If you do a:
12999 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
13000 it will update them.
13001 [Steve Henson]
13002
13003 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
13004 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
13005 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
13006 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
13007 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
13008 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
13009 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
13010 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13011
13012 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
13013 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
13014 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
13015 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
13016 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
13017 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
13018 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
13019 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
13020 the crypto/md/ stuff).
13021 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13022
13023 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
13024 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
13025 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
13026 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
13027 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
13028 [Steve Henson]
13029
13030 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
13031 INTEGER code.
13032 [Steve Henson]
13033
13034 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
13035 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13036
13037 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
13038 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
13039
13040 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
13041 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
13042 [Ben Laurie]
13043
13044 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
13045 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
13046
13047 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
13048 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
13049
13050 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
13051 [Steve Henson]
13052
13053 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
13054 few typos.
13055 [Steve Henson]
13056
13057 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
13058 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
13059 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
13060 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
13061
13062 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
13063 [Steve Henson]
13064
13065 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
13066 [Steve Henson]
13067
13068 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
13069 [Steve Henson]
13070
13071 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
13072 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
13073 [Steve Henson]
13074
13075 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
13076 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
13077 CA extensions.
13078 [Steve Henson]
13079
13080 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
13081 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
13082 [Steve Henson]
13083
13084 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
13085 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
13086 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
13087 [Steve Henson]
13088
13089 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
13090 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
13091 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
13092 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
13093 properly to be processed.
13094 [Steve Henson]
13095
13096 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
13097 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
13098 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
13099 [Ben Laurie]
13100
13101 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
13102 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
13103
13104 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
13105 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
13106 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
13107 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
13108 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
13109 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
13110 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
13111 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
13112 or delete all the .err files.
13113 [Steve Henson]
13114
13115 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
13116 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
13117 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
13118 to regenerate it if needed.
13119 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
13120 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
13121
13122 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
13123 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13124
13125 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
13126 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
13127 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
13128 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
13129 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
13130 [Steve Henson]
13131
13132 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
13133 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13134
13135 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
13136 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13137
13138 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
13139 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
13140 error, but didn't set one).
13141 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13142
13143 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
13144 [Ben Laurie]
13145
13146 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
13147 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
13148 [Steve Henson]
13149
13150 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
13151 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
13152
13153 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
13154 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
13155 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
13156 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
13157 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
13158 OID is not part of the table.
13159 [Steve Henson]
13160
13161 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
13162 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
13163 [Ben Laurie]
13164
13165 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
13166 [Ben Laurie]
13167
13168 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
13169 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
13170 was "1234").
13171 [Steve Henson]
13172
13173 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
13174 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
13175
13176 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
13177 NULL pointers.
13178 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13179
13180 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
13181 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13182
13183 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
13184 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13185
13186 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
13187 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13188
13189 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
13190 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
13191 [Ben Laurie]
13192
13193 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
13194 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
13195 [Steve Henson]
13196
13197 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
13198 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13199
13200 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
13201 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13202
13203 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
13204 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13205
13206 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
13207 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13208
13209 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
13210 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
13211 unused in the certificate verification process.
13212 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13213
13214 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
13215 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
13216 [Steve Henson]
13217
13218 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
13219 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
13220 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
13221
13222 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
13223 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
13224 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
13225 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
13226 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
13227
13228 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
13229 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
13230 [Steve Henson]
13231
13232 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
13233 [Steve Henson]
13234
13235 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
13236 [Paul Sutton]
13237
13238 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
13239 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
13240
13241 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
13242 [Ben Laurie]
13243
13244 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
13245 [Ben Laurie]
13246
13247 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
13248 [Ben Laurie]
13249
13250 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
13251 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
13252 other error libraries.
13253 [Steve Henson]
13254
13255 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
13256 [Steve Henson]
13257
13258 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
13259 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
13260 be read in.
13261 [Steve Henson]
13262
13263 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
13264 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
13265 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
13266 the new set of documentation files.
13267 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13268
13269 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
13270 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
