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 + below). + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with + associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results, + and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of + BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated; + if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same + initialised value as BN_new(). + [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller] + + *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension. + [Steve Henson] + + *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is + enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what + is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to + assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined, + further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM + structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will + (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent + forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should + consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with + these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in + their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At + some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve + maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only + in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details. + [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller] + + *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure + that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly + initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible + to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks). + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a + template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and + lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback + to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table + (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in + LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the + objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not + prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are + given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more). + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility + (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations + haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had + its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char + *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***" + aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used + internally to the implementation so I've used that for now. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when + OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of + the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so + these have been updated also. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality + into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest(). + New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7 + digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the + digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization + functions. + [Steve Henson] + + *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7 + structure of type "other". + [Steve Henson] + + *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making + sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero") + modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime + table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be + re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero" + situation in the script. + [Ralf S. Engelschall] + + *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to + draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with + SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the + representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for + larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly + used as premaster secret. + [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)] + + *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2 + curve secp160r1 to the tests. + [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)] + *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
