Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.8 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
+ This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
+ cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
+ routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
+ 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
+ code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
+ Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
+ valid (weak or incorrect parity).
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
+ as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
+ CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
+ present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
+ syntax:
+
+ shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
+ limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
+ "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
+ information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
+ static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
+ allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
+ BN_CTX's "bundling".
+ [Geoff Thorpe]
+
+ *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
+ to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
+ [Geoff Thorpe]
+
+ *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
+ is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
+ of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
*) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
