Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have + any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order + to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont + implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle. + [Andy Polyakov] + + *) Disable rogue ciphersuites: + + - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5") + - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5") + - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5") + + The latter two were purportedly from + draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really + appear there. + + Other ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt + remain enabled for now, but are just as unofficial, and the ID + has long expired; these will probably disappear soon. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c + to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP + macro. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont, + dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced. + BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher + "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets. + [Andy Polyakov] + + *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively + in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size. + Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of + using the maximum available value. + [Steve Henson] + + *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code + in addition to the text details. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general + ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't + handle several customised structures at all. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such + as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support + these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one + place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now + handled using new ASN1 code equivalents. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD + pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new, + SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'. + [Nils Larsch] + + *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously + unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of + all fields. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. + [Steve Henson] + + Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [XX xxx XXXX] + + *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to + draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes. + [Douglas Stebila] + + *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support + opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use + "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32 + to conform with the standards mentioned here: + http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt + Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include + --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location + of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library + can't be loaded. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code + sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't + handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a + non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries + under VC++ build system. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO. + Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more. + [Richard Levitte] + + Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005] + + *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING + (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the + countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version + rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad + idea. (CVE-2005-2969) + + [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center + for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial + Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)] + + *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at + runtime, thus removing the need for a lock. + [Nils Larsch] + + *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman. + [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie] + + *) Add functions for well-known primes. + [Nick Mathewson] + + *) Extended Windows CE support. + [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov] + + *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during + runtime, thus removing the need for a lock. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by + attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to + smime utility. + [Steve Henson] + + Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005] + + *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private + key into the same file any more. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors. + [Andy Polyakov] + + *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'. + [Stefan and Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify + PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and + use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code: + - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after + a fixed number of uses (currently 32) + - add new function for parameter creation + - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the + BN_BLINDING parameters + - hide BN_BLINDING structure + Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve + performance when a single RSA object is shared among several + threads. + [Nils Larsch] + + *) Add support for DTLS. + [Nagendra Modadugu and Ben Laurie] + + *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1) + to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file() + [Walter Goulet] + + *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from + ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c + [Nils Larsch] + + *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for + the apps/openssl applications. + [Nils Larsch] + + *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes + -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror".
