  Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k  [xx XXX xxxx]
 
+  *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
+     underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
+     zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
+     [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
+
+  *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
+     checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
+     appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
+     [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
+
+  *) 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.
