OpenSSL CHANGES
_______________
- Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ This is a high-level summary of the most important changes.
+ For a full list of changes, see the git commit log; for example,
+ https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commits/ and pick the appropriate
+ release branch.
+
+ Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
+ for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
+ [Matthias St. Pierre]
+
+ *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
+ for the license change).
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
+ SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
+ configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
+ below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
+ In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
+ would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
+ configuraton has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
+ SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
+ in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
+ spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
+ requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
+ responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
+ on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
+ as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
+ when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
+ as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
+ feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
+ after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
+ written to stderr.
+ [Viktor Dukhovni]
+
+ *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
+ Mike Hamburg.
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
+ objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
+ OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
+ get the search data out of them.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
+ version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
+ that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
+ https://www.openssl.org/blog/blog/2018/02/08/tlsv1.3/
+
+ NOTE: In this pre-release of OpenSSL a draft version of the
+ TLSv1.3 standard has been implemented. Implementations of different draft
+ versions of the standard do not inter-operate, and this version will not
+ inter-operate with an implementation of the final standard when it is
+ eventually published. Different pre-release versions may implement
+ different versions of the draft. The final version of OpenSSL 1.1.1 will
+ implement the final version of the standard.
+ TODO(TLS1.3): Remove the above note before final release
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
+
+ The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
+ NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
+ a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
+ object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
+ using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
+ automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
+
+ Some of its new features are:
+ o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
+ o Add a public DRBG instance for the default RAND method.
+ o Add a dedicated DRBG instance for generating long term private keys.
+ o Make the DRBG instances fork-safe.
+ o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
+ o Add a DRBG instance to every SSL instance for lock free operation
+ and to increase unpredictability.
+ [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
+
+ *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
+ so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
+ to display all sorts of configuration data.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
+ [Paul Dale]
+
+ *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
+ now been removed.
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
+ of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
+ the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
+ debug (or make silent).
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
+ arguments to config / Configure.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
+ [Paul Yang]
+
+ *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
+ [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
+ Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
+ Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
+
+ *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
+ as documented in RFC6066.
+ Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
+ [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
+
+ *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
+ [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
+ Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
+ Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
+
+ *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
+ original author does not agree with the license change.
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
+ [Jon Spillett]
+
+ *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
+ Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
+ without clearing the errors.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
+ pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
+ requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ *) Add SHA3.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
+ not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
+ disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
+ as a fallback).
+
+ To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
+ possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
+ macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
+ possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
+ stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
+ objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
+ and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
+ OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
+ The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
+ URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
+ then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
+ Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
+ on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
+ util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
+ error code calls like this:
+
+ OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
+
+ With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
+ that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
+ affect new modules.
+ [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
+
+ *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
+ and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
+ things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
+ to that system and do the rest of the build there.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
+ can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
+ than just the call where this user data is passed.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
+ with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
+ [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
+
+ *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
+ bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
+ alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
+ it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
+ prohibts this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
+ support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
+ record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause inter-operability
+ issues.
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
+ with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
+ The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
+ in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
+ 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
+ [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
+ does for RSA, etc.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
+ platform rather than 'mingw'.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
+ success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
+ in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
+ certificates and CRLs.
+ [Paul Dale]
+
+ *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
+ facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
+ Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
+ VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
+ which is the minimum version we support.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
+ compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
+ are no longer allowed.
+ [Emilia Käsper]
+
+ *) Add support for ARIA
+ [Paul Dale]
+
+ *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
+ default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
+ based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
+ using "-servername".
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) Add support for SipHash
+ [Todd Short]
*) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
[Richard Levitte]
- Changes between 1.1.0b and 1.1.0c [xx XXX xxxx]
+ *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
+ [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
+
+ *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
+ [Emilia Käsper]
+
+ *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
+ issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
+
+ Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
+ in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
+ excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
+ are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
+ so this is considered safe.
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
+ project.
+ (CVE-2018-0739)
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
+
+ Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
+ effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
+ byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
+ authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
+ security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
+ HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
+ (IBM).
+ (CVE-2018-0733)
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
+ and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
+ things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
+ to that system and do the rest of the build there.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
+
+ OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
+ (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
+ changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
+ SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
+ 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
+
+ Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
+ using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
+ accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
+ exist.
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
+
+ There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
+ used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
+ Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
+ defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
+ Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
+ work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
+ offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
+ significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
+ would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
+ no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
+
+ This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
+ like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
+ was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
+ (CVE-2017-3738)
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
+
+ *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
+
+ There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
+ procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
+ against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
+ perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
+ feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
+ deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
+ of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
+ likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
+ additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
+ private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
+ key that is shared between multiple clients.
+
+ This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
+ like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
+ (CVE-2017-3736)
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
+
+ If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
+ OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
+ would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
+ (CVE-2017-3735)
+ [Rich Salz]
+
+ Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
+
+ *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
+ platform rather than 'mingw'.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
+ VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
+ which is the minimum version we support.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
+
+ *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
+
+ During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
+ negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
+ this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
+ and servers are affected.
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
+ (CVE-2017-3733)
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
+
+ *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
+
+ If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
+ cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
+ perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
+ (CVE-2017-3731)
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
+
+ If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
+ exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
+ NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
+ of Service attack.
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
+ (CVE-2017-3730)
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
+
+ There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
+ procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
+ against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
+ perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
+ feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
+ deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
+ of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
+ likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
+ additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
+ private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
+ key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
+ default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
+ similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
+
+ This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
+ (CVE-2017-3732)

structure. This will break anything that messed round
with X509_STORE internally.
-
+
The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
exact match, rather than just subject name.
-
+
The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
entirely (maybe later...).
-
+
The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
-
+
All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
-
+
The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.

X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
