  Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k  [xx XXX xxxx]
 
+  *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
+     prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
+     a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it 
+     unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
+     level.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
+     to handle some structures.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
+     for a '\n'
+     [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
+
+  *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
+     [Matthieu Herrb]
+
+  *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) Support NumericString type for name components.
