For more details please read the CHANGES file. - Major changes between OpenSSL 1.0.2c and OpenSSL 1.0.2d [under development] + Major changes between OpenSSL 1.0.2g and OpenSSL 1.1.0 [in pre-release] + + o Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl + o Support for extended master secret + o CCM ciphersuites + o Reworked test suite, now based on perl, Test::Harness and Test::More + o Various libcrypto structures made opaque including: BIGNUM, EVP_MD, + EVP_MD_CTX, HMAC_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and EVP_CIPHER_CTX. + o libssl internal structures made opaque + o SSLv2 support removed + o Kerberos ciphersuite support removed + o RC4 removed from DEFAULT ciphersuites in libssl + o 40 and 56 bit cipher support removed from libssl + o All public header files moved to include/openssl, no more symlinking + o SSL/TLS state machine, version negotiation and record layer rewritten + o EC revision: now operations use new EC_KEY_METHOD. + o Support for OCB mode added to libcrypto + o Support for asynchronous crypto operations added to libcrypto and libssl + o Deprecated interfaces can now be disabled at build time either + relative to the latest release via the "no-deprecated" Configure + argument, or via the "--api=1.1.0|1.0.0|0.9.8" option. + o Application software can be compiled with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=version + to ensure that features deprecated in that version are not exposed. + o Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication + o Change of Configure to use --prefix as the main installation + directory location rather than --openssldir. The latter becomes + the directory for certs, private key and openssl.cnf exclusively. + o Reworked BIO networking library, with full support for IPv6. + o New "unified" build system + + Major changes between OpenSSL 1.0.2f and OpenSSL 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016] + + o Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL. + o Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers + (CVE-2016-0800) + o Fix a double-free in DSA code (CVE-2016-0705) + o Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak + (CVE-2016-0798) + o Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption + (CVE-2016-0797) + o Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions (CVE-2016-0799) + o Fix side channel attack on modular exponentiation (CVE-2016-0702) + + Major changes between OpenSSL 1.0.2e and OpenSSL 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016] + + o DH small subgroups (CVE-2016-0701) + o SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers (CVE-2015-3197) + + Major changes between OpenSSL 1.0.2d and OpenSSL 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015] + + o BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64 (CVE-2015-3193) + o Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter (CVE-2015-3194) + o X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak (CVE-2015-3195) + o Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs + o In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short, + return an error + + Major changes between OpenSSL 1.0.2c and OpenSSL 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015] o Alternate chains certificate forgery (CVE-2015-1793) + o Race condition handling PSK identify hint (CVE-2015-3196) Major changes between OpenSSL 1.0.2b and OpenSSL 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015] @@ -264,7 +322,7 @@ Major changes between OpenSSL 0.9.8e and OpenSSL 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]: o Add gcc 4.2 support. - o Add support for AES and SSE2 assembly lanugauge optimization + o Add support for AES and SSE2 assembly language optimization for VC++ build. o Support for RFC4507bis and server name extensions if explicitly selected at compile time.
