5 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 [xx XXX 2002]
7 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
8 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
9 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
11 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
12 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
13 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
14 adding different types of curves.
15 [Nils Larsch with input by Bodo Moeller]
17 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
18 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
19 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
22 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
23 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
25 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
26 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
27 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
28 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
30 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
32 Add applications 'openssl ecdsaparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
33 (these are variants of 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
35 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
36 library. Most notably,
37 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
38 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
39 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
40 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
41 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
42 extracted before the specific public key.
43 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
45 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
46 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. The curves can be obtained from the new
49 EC_GROUP_new_by_name()
50 Also add a 'nid' field to EC_GROUP objects, which can be accessed
54 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
56 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.7 [XX xxx 2002]
58 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
59 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
62 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
63 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
64 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
65 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
66 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
69 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
70 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
71 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
72 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
73 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
74 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
77 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
78 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
79 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
80 declaration has been changed from
83 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
84 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
85 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
87 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
89 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
90 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
91 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
93 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
94 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
96 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
97 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
98 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
99 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
100 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
101 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
102 always load it have also been added.
105 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
106 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
107 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
109 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
111 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
112 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
113 because it couldn't be used for anything.
115 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
116 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
117 command line option can be used to specify an
121 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
122 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
125 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
126 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
127 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
130 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
131 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
132 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
133 to work with the new engine framework.
134 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
136 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
137 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
138 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
139 to work with the new engine framework.
142 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
143 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
144 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
146 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
147 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
149 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
150 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
151 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
152 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
154 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
156 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
157 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
159 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
160 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
162 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
163 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
164 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
169 ERR_peek_last_error_line
170 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
174 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
175 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
176 still in the error queue.
177 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
179 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
181 default_algorithms = ALL
182 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
185 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
188 *) New experimental application configuration code.
191 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
192 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
193 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
194 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
196 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
197 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
199 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
200 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
202 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
203 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
206 *) New functions/macros
208 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
209 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
210 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
211 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
213 to request calling a callback function
215 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
216 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
218 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
219 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
220 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
221 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
222 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
223 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
224 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
225 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
226 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
227 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
229 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
230 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
233 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
234 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
235 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
236 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
237 the configuration scripts.
239 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
240 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
241 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
243 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
244 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
246 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
247 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
248 when reusing an existing buffer.
251 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
252 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
255 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
256 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
259 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
260 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
261 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
263 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
265 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
266 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
267 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
268 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
269 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
270 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
273 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
274 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
275 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
276 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
278 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
279 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
280 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
281 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
283 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
284 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
287 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
288 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
289 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
290 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
291 default), and then completely removed.
294 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
295 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
296 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
297 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
298 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
299 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
300 particular extension is supported.
303 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
304 to retain compatibility with existing code.
307 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
308 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
309 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
310 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
311 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
312 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
313 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
314 requires the destination to be valid.
316 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
317 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
320 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
321 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
322 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
325 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
326 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
328 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
329 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
330 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
331 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
332 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
333 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
334 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
335 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
336 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
337 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
338 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
339 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
340 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
341 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
342 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
343 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
344 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
345 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
346 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
350 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
353 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
354 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
355 become part of libeay.num as well.
358 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
359 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
360 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
361 false once a handshake has been completed.
362 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
363 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
364 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
365 client has followed the request.)
368 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
369 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
370 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
371 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
374 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
377 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
378 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
379 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
382 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
383 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
386 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
387 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
388 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
389 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
392 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
393 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
394 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
395 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
396 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
397 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
400 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
401 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
402 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
403 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
404 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
405 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
406 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
407 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
410 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
411 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
414 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
417 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
418 md_data void pointer.
421 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
422 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
423 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
424 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
425 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
426 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
429 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
430 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
431 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
432 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
433 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
434 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
435 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
436 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
437 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
438 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
439 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
440 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
441 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
442 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
443 rather than letting it slide.
445 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
446 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
447 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
450 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
451 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
452 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
453 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
454 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
455 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
456 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
457 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
458 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
461 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
462 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
463 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
464 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
465 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
467 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
470 *) Add EVP test program.
473 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
476 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
477 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
478 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
479 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
480 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
483 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
484 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
485 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
486 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
487 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
488 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
489 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
491 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
492 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions. This also reduces
493 the number of header dependencies.
498 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
499 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
500 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
501 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
502 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
506 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
507 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
508 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
509 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
514 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
515 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
517 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
520 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
521 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
522 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
523 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
524 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
525 functions prevents this.
528 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
531 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
535 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
536 revocation information is handled using the text based index
537 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
538 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
539 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
542 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
545 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
546 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
547 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
548 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
550 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
551 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
553 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
554 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
555 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
558 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
559 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
560 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
561 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
564 *) Speed up EVP routines.

582 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
583 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
585 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
586 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
587 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
588 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
589 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
590 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
593 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
594 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
597 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
598 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
599 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
600 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
602 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
603 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
604 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
605 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
606 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
607 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
611 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
612 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
613 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
614 and interrupts/cancellations.
617 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
618 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
621 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
622 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
623 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
625 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
626 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
630 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
631 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
632 than this minimum value is recommended.
635 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
636 that are easily reachable.
639 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
640 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
642 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
644 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
645 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
646 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
647 needed for static libraries under Win32.
650 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
651 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
652 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
655 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
656 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
657 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
658 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
659 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
660 internally such as S/MIME.
662 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
663 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
664 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
666 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
670 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
671 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
672 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
673 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
675 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
677 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
679 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
680 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
681 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
685 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
686 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
687 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
688 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
689 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
690 a window system and the like.
693 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
694 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
697 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
698 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
699 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
700 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
701 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
702 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
703 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
704 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
705 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
709 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
710 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
714 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
715 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
716 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
717 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
718 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
719 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
720 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
721 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
724 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
725 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
726 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
727 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
728 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
729 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
730 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
731 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
732 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
733 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
734 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
735 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
736 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
737 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
738 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
739 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
740 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
743 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
744 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
745 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
746 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
747 internal engine_int.h header.
750 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
751 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
752 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
753 modify their own ones).
756 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
757 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
758 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
759 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
760 later on via ctrl() commands.
761 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
762 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
763 structural references.
764 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
765 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
766 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
767 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
768 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
769 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
770 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
771 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
772 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
773 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
774 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
775 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
778 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
779 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
780 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
781 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
782 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
783 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
784 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
785 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
788 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
789 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
792 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
793 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
796 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
797 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
798 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
799 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
800 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
801 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
802 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
805 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
806 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
807 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
808 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
809 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
811 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
812 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
816 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
818 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
819 operations and provides various method functions that can also
820 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
822 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
823 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
825 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
826 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
827 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
829 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
832 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
833 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
835 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
837 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
838 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
839 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
842 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
843 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
846 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
847 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
848 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
849 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
850 is 40 of more characters long.
853 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
854 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
858 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
859 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
862 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
863 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
867 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
869 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
870 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
873 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
875 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
876 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
877 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
879 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
880 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
882 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
885 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
889 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
890 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
891 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
892 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
894 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
896 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
897 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
899 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
900 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
901 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
902 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
903 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
904 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
906 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
907 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
909 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
910 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
912 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
913 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
915 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
916 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
917 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
918 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
920 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
921 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
923 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
924 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
926 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
927 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
928 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
929 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
930 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
933 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
934 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
935 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
936 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
939 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
940 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
941 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
945 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
946 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
947 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
948 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
949 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
950 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
951 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
952 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
956 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
957 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
960 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
961 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
962 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
963 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
966 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
967 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
968 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
969 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
970 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
971 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
972 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
973 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
974 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
975 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
978 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
979 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
980 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
981 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
982 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
983 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
984 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
985 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
987 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
988 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
989 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
990 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
993 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
994 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
995 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
996 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
998 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
999 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
1000 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
1001 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
1002 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
1006 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
1007 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
1008 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
1009 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
1013 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
1014 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
1015 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
1018 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
1019 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
1020 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
1021 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
1022 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
1025 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
1028 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
1029 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
1030 option to ocsp utility.
1033 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
1034 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
1035 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
1036 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
1037 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
1038 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
1039 the request is nonce-less.
1042 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
1043 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
1044 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
1047 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
1048 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
1049 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
1052 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
1053 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
1054 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
1055 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
1056 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
1059 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
1060 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
1064 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
1065 additional certificates supplied.
1068 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
1069 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
1073 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
1074 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
1077 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in the "AES Ciphersuites
1078 for TLS" draft-ietf-tls-ciphersuite-06.txt. As these are not yet
1079 official, they are not enabled by default and are not even part
1080 of the "ALL" ciphersuite alias; for now, they must be explicitly
1081 requested by specifying the new "AESdraft" ciphersuite alias. If
1082 you want the default ciphersuite list plus the new ciphersuites,
1083 use "DEFAULT:AESdraft:@STRENGTH".
1084 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1086 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
1087 request to response.
1090 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
1091 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
1092 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
1093 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
1094 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
1095 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
1096 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
1097 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
1098 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
1099 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
1100 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
1103 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
1104 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
1105 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
1106 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
1109 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
1110 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1112 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
1113 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
1114 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
1117 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
1118 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
1119 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
1120 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
1121 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1123 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
1124 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
1125 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
1128 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
1129 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
1130 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
1131 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
1132 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
1133 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
1134 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
1135 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1137 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
1138 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
1139 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
1140 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
1141 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
1142 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
1145 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
1146 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
1147 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
1148 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
1149 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
1150 printout format cleaned up.
1153 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
1154 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
1155 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
1156 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
1157 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
1158 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
1159 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
1160 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
1163 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
1164 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
1165 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
1166 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
1167 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
1168 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
1169 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
1170 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
1173 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
1174 extensions from a separate configuration file.
1175 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
1176 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
1178 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1180 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
1181 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
1182 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
1183 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
1186 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
1187 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
1188 the given serial number (according to the index file).
1189 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
1191 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1193 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
1194 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
1195 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
1196 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1198 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
1199 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
1201 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
1202 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
1203 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
1206 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
1207 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
1208 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
1211 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
1212 file name and line number information in additional arguments
1213 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
1214 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
1215 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
1216 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
1217 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
1218 functions are provided:
1220 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
1221 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
1222 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
1223 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
1225 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
1226 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
1227 extended allocation function is enabled.
1228 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
1229 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
1230 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
1232 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
1233 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
1234 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
1235 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
1236 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
1239 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
1240 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
1241 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
1243 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
1244 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
1245 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
1248 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
1249 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
1250 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
1251 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
1252 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
1253 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
1254 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
1255 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
1256 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
1259 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
1260 provide utility functions which an application needing
1261 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
1262 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
1263 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
1265 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
1266 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
1267 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
1268 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
1269 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
1270 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
1271 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
1272 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
1273 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
1275 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
1276 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
1277 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
1278 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
1281 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
1282 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
1283 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
1284 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
1285 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
1286 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
1287 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
1288 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
1289 will be added elsewhere.
1292 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
1293 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
1294 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
1295 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
1298 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
1299 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
1300 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
1301 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
1302 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
1303 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
1304 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
1305 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
1306 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
1307 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
1308 to produce the required SET OF.
1311 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
1312 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
1313 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
1316 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
1317 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
1318 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
1319 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
1320 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
1321 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
1324 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
1325 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
1326 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
1329 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
1330 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
1331 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
1334 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
1335 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
1336 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
1337 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
1338 code will still work when these eventually go away.
1341 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
1342 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
1345 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
1346 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
1347 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
1348 certifcates and CRLs.
1351 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
1352 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
1353 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
1356 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
1357 entries for variables.
1360 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
1361 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
1362 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
1363 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
1366 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
1367 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
1368 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
1369 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
1370 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
1371 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
1374 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
1375 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
1377 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
1378 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
1379 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
1382 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
1386 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
1387 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
1388 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
1389 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
1390 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
1391 order did not reflect the encoded order.
1394 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
1397 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
1398 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
1399 for now but they will eventually go away.
1402 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
1403 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
1404 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
1405 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
1406 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
1407 has also been converted to the new form.
1410 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
1411 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
1412 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
1413 for negative moduli.
1416 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
1417 of not touching the result's sign bit.
1420 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
1424 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
1425 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
1426 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
1427 type-specific callbacks.
1430 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
1432 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
1433 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
1435 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
1436 in sections depending on the subject.
1439 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
1443 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
1444 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
1445 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
1446 be handled deterministically).
1447 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1449 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
1450 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
1451 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
1454 *) New function BN_kronecker.
1457 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
1458 positive unless both parameters are zero.
1459 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
1460 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
1461 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
1464 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
1465 sign of the number in question.
1467 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
1469 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
1470 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
1471 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
1472 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
1473 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
1476 *) New function BN_swap.
1479 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
1480 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
1481 results on negative inputs.
1484 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
1485 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
1486 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
1489 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
1490 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
1491 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
1492 and add new functions:
1501 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
1505 These functions always generate non-negative results.
1507 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
1508 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
1510 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
1511 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
1512 be reduced modulo m.
1513 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1515 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1516 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1517 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1518 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1519 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1520 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1524 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
1525 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
1526 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
1527 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
1528 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
1530 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
1531 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
1532 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
1536 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
1539 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
1540 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
1543 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
1544 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
1545 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
1546 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
1550 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
1553 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
1556 *) Add the following functions:
1558 ENGINE_load_cswift()
1560 ENGINE_load_atalla()
1562 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
1564 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
1565 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
1566 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
1567 libraries unless it's really needed.
1569 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
1570 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
1571 declarations (they differed!).
1574 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
1577 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
1580 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
1583 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
1584 identity, and test if they are actually available.
1587 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
1588 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
1589 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1591 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
1592 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
1595 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
1598 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
1601 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
1604 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
1605 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
1606 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
1608 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
1609 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
1610 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
1611 different shared library filenames on each system.
1614 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
1617 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
1618 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
1619 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
1621 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
1624 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
1625 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
1626 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
1627 binary backward compatibility.
1628 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
1629 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
1630 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
1634 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
1635 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
1636 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
1637 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
1641 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
1644 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
1645 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
1646 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
1647 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
1651 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
1654 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [XX xxx 2002]
1656 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
1657 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
1658 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
1660 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
1661 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1663 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
1664 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
1665 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
1666 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
1667 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
1668 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
1671 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
1672 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
1673 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
1674 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
1677 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
1680 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
1681 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
1682 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
1683 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
1684 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
1685 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1687 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
1688 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
1689 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
1690 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
1691 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
1694 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
1695 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
1696 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
1697 BN_generate_prime().)
1699 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
1700 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
1701 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
1705 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
1706 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
1709 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
1710 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
1711 when using non-blocking I/O.
1712 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
1714 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
1715 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
1717 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
1718 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
1721 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
1722 configuration for the versions before that.
1723 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
1725 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
1726 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
1727 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
1728 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
1731 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
1732 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
1733 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
1736 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
1740 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
1741 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
1743 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
1744 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
1745 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
1747 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
1748 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
1749 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
1750 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
1751 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
1752 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
1753 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
1756 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
1757 using a local variable.
1758 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
1760 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
1761 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
1762 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
1764 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
1767 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
1768 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
1770 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
1771 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
1772 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
1774 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
1776 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
1777 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
1778 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
1779 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
1782 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
1786 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
1787 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
1788 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
1789 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
1790 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
1792 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
1793 returns early because it has nothing to do.
1794 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1796 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1797 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
1798 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1800 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1801 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
1802 (Use engine 'keyclient')
1803 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
1805 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
1806 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
1807 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
1809 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
1811 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1812 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
1814 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
1816 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1817 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
1818 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
1819 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
1821 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1822 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
1823 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
1824 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
1826 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
1827 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
1829 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
1830 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
1831 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
1834 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
1835 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
1836 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
1838 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
1840 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
1841 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
1842 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
1843 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
1844 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
1845 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
1846 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
1849 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
1850 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
1851 one of the SSL handshake functions.
1852 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
1854 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
1855 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
1856 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
1857 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
1858 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
1859 the client will at least see that alert.
1862 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
1866 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
1867 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
1868 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1870 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
1871 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
1872 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
1873 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
1876 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
1877 before just sending a HelloRequest.
1878 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
1880 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
1881 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
1882 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
1883 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
1884 may leak via logfiles.)
1886 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
1887 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
1888 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
1889 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
1893 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
1894 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
1897 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
1898 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
1899 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
1900 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
1901 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
1904 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
1905 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
1907 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
1908 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
1909 followed by modular reduction.
1910 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
1912 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
1913 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
1916 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
1917 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
1918 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
1919 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
1922 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
1925 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
1926 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
1929 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
1930 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
1931 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
1932 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
1933 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
1934 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
1936 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
1938 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
1939 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
1940 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
1941 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
1942 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
1944 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
1947 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
1948 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
1949 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
1950 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
1951 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
1952 to allow the necessary settings.
1955 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
1956 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
1957 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
1958 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
1961 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
1962 dh->length and always used
1964 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
1966 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
1967 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
1968 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
1969 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
1970 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
1975 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
1977 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
1983 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
1984 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
1985 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
1986 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
1988 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
1989 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
1990 always reject numbers >= n.
1993 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
1994 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
1995 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
1996 variable) is not atomic.
1999 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
2000 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
2001 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
2002 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
2004 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
2005 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
2007 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
2009 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
2011 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
2014 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
2016 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
2017 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
2018 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
2019 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
2020 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
2021 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
2022 to traverse all of 'state'.
2024 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
2025 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
2026 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
2028 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
2029 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
2031 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
2032 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
2033 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
2034 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
2035 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
2036 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
2037 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
2038 further strengthens the PRNG.
2041 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
2044 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
2045 an error message in this case.
2048 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
2051 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
2052 positive and less than q.
2055 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
2056 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
2058 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
2060 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
2061 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
2065 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
2067 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
2068 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
2069 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
2070 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
2071 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
2072 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
2073 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
2076 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
2077 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
2078 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
2079 detect the supposedly ignored error.
2081 Both problems are now fixed.
2084 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
2085 (previously it was 1024).
2088 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
2089 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
2092 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
2095 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
2096 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
2097 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
2100 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
2101 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
2102 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
2103 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
2104 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
2105 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
2106 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
2107 environment variables.
2109 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
2110 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
2111 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
2114 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
2115 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
2116 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
2117 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
2118 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
2119 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
2122 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
2126 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
2128 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
2129 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
2131 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
2132 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
2133 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
2134 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
2138 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
2139 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
2140 amount of data available.
2141 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
2142 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2144 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
2145 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
2146 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
2147 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
2150 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
2151 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
2155 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
2156 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
2157 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
2158 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
2161 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
2164 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
2167 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
2168 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
2170 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2172 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
2173 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
2174 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
2175 (but broken) behaviour.
2178 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
2180 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
2182 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
2183 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
2186 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
2190 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
2191 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
2193 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
2196 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
2197 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
2198 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
2200 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
2201 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
2202 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
2205 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
2206 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
2209 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
2210 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
2212 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
2214 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
2216 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
2217 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
2218 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
2219 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
2222 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
2225 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
2226 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
2227 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2229 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
2232 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2234 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
2235 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
2236 but the code is actually correct.
2239 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
2240 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
2241 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
2242 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
2243 and leaves the highest bit random.
2244 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
2246 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
2247 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
2248 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
2249 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
2250 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
2251 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
2252 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
2255 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
2258 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
2259 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
2262 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
2263 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
2264 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
2265 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
2269 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
2270 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
2271 and break the signature.
2273 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2275 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
2279 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
2280 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
2281 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
2282 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
2283 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
2286 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
2287 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2289 *) ./config script fixes.
2290 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
2292 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
2295 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
2296 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
2297 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
2298 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
2299 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
2301 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
2302 call failed, free the DSA structure.
2305 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
2306 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
2309 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
2310 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
2311 when writing a 32767 byte record.
2312 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
2314 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
2315 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
2317 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
2318 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
2319 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
2320 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
2321 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
2323 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
2326 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
2329 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
2332 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
2335 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
2336 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
2339 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
2340 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
2341 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
2342 result of the server certificate verification.)
2345 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
2346 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
2347 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
2351 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
2352 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
2353 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
2354 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
2355 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
2356 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
2357 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
2358 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
2361 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
2362 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
2363 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
2364 happening the other way round.
2367 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
2368 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
2371 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
2372 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
2373 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
2374 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
2377 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
2378 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
2380 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
2382 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
2383 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
2384 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
2387 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
2389 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
2391 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
2395 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
2397 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
2398 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
2399 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
2400 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
2401 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
2403 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
2404 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
2408 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
2411 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
2413 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
2414 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
2415 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
2416 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
2417 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
2418 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
2419 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
2420 by the Finished messages.
2423 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
2424 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
2426 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
2427 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
2428 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
2429 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
2430 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
2434 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
2435 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
2436 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
2437 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
2438 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
2439 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
2440 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
2441 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
2442 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
2446 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
2447 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
2448 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
2449 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
2451 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
2452 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
2453 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
2454 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
2455 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
2458 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
2459 been tested well enough.
2462 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
2463 it can return incorrect results.
2464 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
2465 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
2468 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
2469 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
2470 include zero length content when signing messages.
2473 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
2474 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
2477 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
2480 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
2484 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
2485 packages. The default package contains applications, application
2486 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
2487 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
2488 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
2489 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
2492 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
2493 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
2495 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
2496 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
2498 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
2499 random number < q in the DSA library.
2502 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
2503 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
2504 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
2505 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
2506 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
2507 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
2508 just makes things more complicated.)
2511 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
2515 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
2516 work better on such systems.
2517 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
2519 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
2520 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
2521 keyid to the certificates aux info.
2524 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
2525 if there was more than one signature.
2526 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
2528 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
2529 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
2530 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
2531 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
2534 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
2535 rather than always using the current time.
2538 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
2539 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
2540 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
2541 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
2542 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
2543 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
2545 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
2546 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
2548 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
2550 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
2551 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
2552 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
2553 the same hash value.
2555 As a result various functions (which were all internal
2556 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
2557 structure. This will break anything that messed round
2558 with X509_STORE internally.
2560 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
2561 exact match, rather than just subject name.
2563 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
2564 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
2565 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
2566 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
2567 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
2568 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
2569 entirely (maybe later...).
2571 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
2573 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
2574 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
2575 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
2576 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
2577 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
2578 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
2579 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
2580 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
2582 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
2583 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
2585 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
2586 to customise the verify behaviour.
2589 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
2590 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
2593 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
2594 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
2595 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
2596 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
2597 request is improperly encoded.
2600 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
2601 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
2604 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
2605 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
2607 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
2608 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
2612 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
2613 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
2614 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
2617 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
2618 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
2619 BIO/fp routines also added.
2622 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
2623 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
2625 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
2626 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
2627 demos/state_machine.
2630 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
2631 generation and verification.
2634 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
2635 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
2636 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
2637 encode and decode it manually.
2640 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
2642 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
2644 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
2645 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
2646 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
2647 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
2649 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
2650 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
2651 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
2652 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
2653 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
2656 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
2659 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
2660 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
2661 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
2663 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
2664 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
2665 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
2666 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
2667 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
2668 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
2669 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
2670 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
2672 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
2673 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
2675 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
2677 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
2678 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
2679 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
2683 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
2684 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
2685 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
2686 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
2690 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
2692 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
2695 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
2696 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
2697 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
2698 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
2699 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
2700 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
2701 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
2702 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
2703 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
2704 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
2705 short or long names are found.
2708 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
2709 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
2711 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
2712 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
2713 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
2714 version rollback attacks was not effective.
2716 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
2717 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
2718 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
2719 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
2722 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
2723 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
2724 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
2727 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
2728 these print out strings and name structures based on various
2729 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
2730 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
2731 to allow the various flags to be set.
2734 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
2735 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
2736 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
2737 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
2738 dates to be checked.
2741 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
2742 negative public key encodings) on by default,
2743 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
2746 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
2747 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
2748 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
2751 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
2752 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
2755 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
2756 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
2757 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
2758 are always statically linked for now, but there are
2759 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
2760 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
2763 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
2764 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
2768 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
2772 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
2773 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
2774 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
2775 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
2776 form signing output easier to verify.
2779 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
2782 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
2783 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
2784 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
2785 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
2786 are needed because all other string types have virtually
2787 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
2788 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
2789 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
2790 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
2791 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
2794 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
2796 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
2797 the syntax given in objects.README.
2798 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
2800 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
2803 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
2804 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
2805 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
2806 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
2807 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
2808 consistent name changes.
2811 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
2814 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
2815 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
2816 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
2817 environment variable, or the default random state file.
2820 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
2821 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
2822 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
2826 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
2827 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
2828 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
2829 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
2832 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
2833 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
2834 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
2835 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
2836 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
2837 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
2838 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
2839 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
2840 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
2841 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
2842 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
2845 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
2846 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
2847 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
2848 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
2849 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
2850 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
2851 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
2852 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
2853 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
2854 algorithm to openssl-dev.
2857 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
2858 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
2859 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
2860 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
2862 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
2863 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
2864 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
2865 omit any duplicate addresses.
2868 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
2869 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
2872 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
2873 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
2874 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
2875 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
2876 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
2879 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
2881 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
2882 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
2883 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
2884 Free => OPENSSL_free
2887 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
2888 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
2891 *) CygWin32 support.
2892 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
2894 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
2895 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
2896 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
2897 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
2898 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
2902 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
2903 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
2904 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
2905 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
2906 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
2907 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
2908 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
2911 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
2912 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
2913 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
2914 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
2915 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
2916 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
2917 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
2918 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
2919 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
2920 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
2921 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
2924 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
2925 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
2926 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
2927 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
2928 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
2930 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
2931 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
2932 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
2933 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
2934 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
2936 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
2939 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
2940 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
2941 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
2942 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
2944 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
2946 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
2949 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
2950 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
2951 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
2954 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
2955 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
2956 any installed hardware versions can.
2959 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
2960 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
2961 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
2965 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
2966 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
2967 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
2968 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
2969 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
2971 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
2972 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
2975 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
2976 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
2979 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
2980 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
2981 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
2985 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
2988 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
2989 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
2990 but no ssl client purpose.
2991 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
2993 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
2994 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
2995 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
2996 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
2997 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
2998 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
2999 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
3000 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
3001 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
3002 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
3003 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
3006 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
3007 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
3008 be obtained from the error queue.
3011 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
3012 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
3013 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
3014 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
3017 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
3020 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
3021 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
3022 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
3023 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
3024 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
3027 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
3028 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
3029 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
3030 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
3031 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
3034 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
3035 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
3036 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
3038 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
3040 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
3041 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
3042 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
3043 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
3044 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
3045 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
3046 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
3047 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
3048 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
3049 or "the configuration storage API"...
3051 The new configuration file reading functions are:
3053 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
3054 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
3056 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
3058 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
3060 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
3061 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
3062 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
3063 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
3064 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
3065 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
3066 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
3068 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
3069 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
3072 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
3073 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
3074 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
3075 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
3078 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
3079 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
3080 them in a portable way.
3081 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
3083 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
3085 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
3087 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
3088 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
3090 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
3091 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
3092 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
3095 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
3096 was larger than the MD block size.
3097 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
3099 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
3100 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
3101 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
3102 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
3106 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
3107 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
3108 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
3110 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
3112 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
3114 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
3115 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
3116 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
3117 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
3118 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
3119 Additional arguments are always ignored.
3121 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
3122 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
3124 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
3125 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
3128 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
3131 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
3132 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
3134 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
3135 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
3136 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
3137 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
3140 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
3141 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
3142 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
3143 does not suppress any output.
3146 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
3147 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
3148 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
3149 with all the associated security issues.
3151 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
3152 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
3153 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
3154 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
3155 use the value in the default purpose.
3158 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
3159 and fix a memory leak.
3162 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
3163 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
3164 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
3165 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
3168 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
3169 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
3170 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
3171 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
3174 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
3175 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
3176 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
3179 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
3180 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
3183 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
3184 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
3188 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
3189 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
3192 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
3193 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
3194 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
3197 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
3198 number generation fails.
3201 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
3204 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
3205 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
3207 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
3210 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
3211 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
3213 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
3214 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
3216 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
3218 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
3219 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
3222 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
3223 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
3225 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
3226 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
3229 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
3230 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
3231 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
3232 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
3233 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
3234 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
3236 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
3237 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
3238 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
3242 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
3243 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
3244 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
3245 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
3246 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
3247 counter, some don't.)
3248 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
3249 counters or duplicate objects.
3252 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
3253 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
3256 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
3257 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
3258 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
3260 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
3261 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
3262 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
3266 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
3267 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
3270 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
3271 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
3272 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
3276 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
3277 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
3278 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
3281 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
3282 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
3283 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
3284 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
3285 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
3286 should work without changes.
3289 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
3290 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
3291 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
3292 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
3293 must be defined. E.g.,
3294 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
3295 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
3296 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
3297 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
3299 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
3303 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
3304 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
3305 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
3308 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
3309 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
3310 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
3311 request header lines. Some software needs this.
3314 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
3315 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
3316 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
3317 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
3318 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
3319 is prompted for as usual.
3322 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
3323 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
3324 autodetect the card and use it if present.
3325 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
3327 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
3328 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
3329 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
3330 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
3333 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
3336 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
3340 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
3343 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
3346 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
3350 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
3353 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
3356 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
3357 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
3360 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
3361 options to produce them.
3364 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
3365 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
3368 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
3372 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
3373 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
3374 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
3375 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
3376 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
3377 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
3378 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
3381 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
3384 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
3385 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
3386 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
3389 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
3390 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
3392 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
3393 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
3396 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
3397 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
3398 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
3402 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
3403 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
3405 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
3406 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
3407 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
3408 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
3409 generation becomes much faster.
3411 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
3412 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
3413 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
3414 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
3415 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
3416 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
3417 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
3418 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
3419 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
3420 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
3423 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
3424 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
3425 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
3426 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
3427 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
3428 trial division stage.
3431 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
3435 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
3438 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
3441 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
3442 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
3443 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
3447 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
3448 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
3449 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
3452 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
3453 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
3454 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
3455 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
3457 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
3458 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
3461 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
3464 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
3465 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
3466 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
3467 Rabin-Miller iterations.
3470 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
3471 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
3472 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
3475 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
3476 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
3477 (instead of parameters) in future.
3480 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
3481 when a new cipher list is set.
3484 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
3485 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
3488 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
3489 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
3490 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
3492 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
3493 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
3494 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
3495 an error is flagged.
3497 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
3498 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
3499 the readability was also increased :-)
3500 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
3502 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
3503 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
3504 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
3505 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
3509 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
3510 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
3513 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
3514 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
3515 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
3516 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
3519 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
3520 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
3521 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
3522 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
3523 because they handle more complex structures.)
3526 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
3527 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
3528 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
3529 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
3531 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
3532 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
3533 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
3534 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
3535 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
3536 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
3537 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
3540 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
3541 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
3542 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
3543 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
3544 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
3547 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
3550 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
3551 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
3552 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
3553 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
3554 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
3557 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
3561 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
3562 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
3563 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
3564 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
3567 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
3570 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
3571 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
3572 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
3573 international characters are used.
3575 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
3576 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
3577 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
3581 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
3582 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
3583 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
3586 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
3587 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
3588 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
3589 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
3590 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
3591 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
3593 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
3594 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
3595 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
3596 be handled by the string table functions.
3598 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
3599 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
3600 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
3601 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
3602 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
3606 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
3607 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
3608 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
3609 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
3610 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
3612 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
3613 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
3614 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
3615 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
3618 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
3619 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
3620 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
3621 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
3622 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
3626 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
3627 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
3628 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
3629 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
3630 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
3631 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
3632 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
3633 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
3635 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
3636 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
3637 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
3640 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
3641 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
3642 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
3643 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
3644 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
3645 support to pkcs8 application.
3648 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
3649 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
3650 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
3651 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
3652 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
3653 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
3656 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
3657 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
3658 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
3659 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
3660 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
3664 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
3665 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
3666 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
3667 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
3671 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
3672 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
3673 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
3674 and any application specific purposes.
3676 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
